Brexit killed my business indirectly - small operating companies I had targeted, quit setting budgets since the fall before it was announced - so first I started note-taking part-time at the University of Cambridge, and now I also shuttle disabled students in a complementary part-time job.

University of Baltimore December ’17 graduates did not approve of the commencement speaker, Betsy DeVos, U.S. Secretary of Education. At least some of them did not. They had tried petitioning before the big day. Didn’t work. Some faculty were unhappy as well. The University of Baltimore is a publically supported university. Betsy DeVos has never attended a publically funded school in her life. She has made a huge pitch in favor of school choice and giving tax money for vouchers to assist students to attend private options. Of course, the vouchers are only enough to supplement the tuition cost so moderate to low income families still will not have a choice. Protesting students and faculty felt it was hypocritical to give a speaking platform to someone who does not fully support public education.
The President of the University, a former mayor of Baltimore City, believed that a university is a place where diverse views need to be heard and he felt the commencement ceremony was a good place to do that.
So, what to do? Some students and faculty stood and turned their backs on DeVos when she began to speak, including some faculty on the stage. Some people felt this behavior by protesters showed a waste of taxpayer money on their education and showed the university to be a 3rd rate school. One wonders if the university were not publically funded would these critics feel that student behavior was ok. Others went on to say that the mission of higher education is to promote respect for free speech and the exchange of ideas and opinions; and, therefore, DeVos’s speech should have been welcomed. Is it not possible that the protestors believed that their behavior was a function of their right to promote free speech and that they were expressing their ideas by doing so?
The next question is whether the behavior was uncivil and rude. And did it ruin the ceremony for students and their families who just wanted a wonderful day to recognize their achievements. Is a graduation ceremony the place to protest ideas with which we disagree.
There is enough credit and blame to go all around in this instance. First of all, perhaps the university president could have chosen a different venue than the graduation ceremony for such a controversial speaker at a public university. Or maybe he felt without the high-profile event DeVos would not have come to what is really a working-class school of mostly nontraditional students. So did he trade notoriety for a peaceful ceremony for graduates.
Secondly, one looks at the protestors. They tried to head off the event but were ignored. They, too, were looking for a high-profile way to show their displeasure. They, too, were willing to trade notoriety for a peaceful, decorous ceremony.
Finally, perhaps the commencement ceremony was not so much a celebration of academic achievement but a celebration of free speech. In many countries of the world, those protesting behaviors would have been grounds for criminal confinement or worse. Here in our country they were annoying to some, principled to others but a celebration of a basic American right- the freedom to speak our mind as long as we do not incite others to do harm. Free speech, hate speech or no speech- we must always choose free speech.
Long ago and far away there was this pretty good idea. Education should have a curriculum that specifically laid out the expectations for the kindergarten through twelve grades in school. This idea came from the various governors of the states. Great minds in state departments of education and teacher preparation programs got together and developed this k-12 curriculum. No the feds did not hand it down from on high. Federal involvement came later. Every day practicing teachers were notably pretty much excluded from the development group. Once the full curriculum was identified, goals were divided by grade level in math and language. This group was determined to raise standards for each grade level independent of the cognitive development of children. Some rank and file teachers protested that lots of the kids they taught were not cognitively ready for the grade standard. Others dared to suggest that not all children marched to the same standard of cognitive development. What did they know? They only lived with students, day in and day out. The standards became known as the Common Core Curriculum and have been adopted and adapted by roughly half of the states. Initially, more were on board but they have dropped out.
Then things started to go terribly wrong.
We quickly moved from goals to accountably and from there to enforcement and rewards and punishment. Pacing guides were created to make sure every child was exposed to the learning that would be tested at the end of the year. Learning became some kind of bacteria to which kids were exposed instead of ideas that intrigued. Schools were identified as failing schools. Failing schools were punished with take overs and staff changes. Teachers needed to be held accountable as well. No Child Left Behind and the more recent Every Child Succeeds Act insists on including student test scores in the evaluation of teachers. Totally ignoring that some teachers teach children with a great deal of baggage such as poverty, cognitive challenges and, frankly, families that don’t give a wit about school achievement, they are contending with survival. No matter how challenged the learner, every teacher must surmount the challenge and have students with good test scores or be poorly evaluated.
Teachers unions protested. We uniformly ignored them because we all know one of their prime functions is to protect the weakest among the membership.
We have gone terribly astray. We are preparing and measuring students for knowledge and skills. But the world they will enter is far more complicated and nuanced than that. There is social media to destroy reputations and self-concept. There are issues we all believe are happening or not- climate change, shifting geopolitical powers, quantum computing and a much more ethnically diverse society for all of us.
The idea of a Common Core of curriculum seemed like such a good idea at the time. How did we let it go so wrong?
Maryland’s teachers are highly compensated. The average starting teacher’s salary in Maryland is almost $44,000; that is $8,000 more than the national average for new teachers. That is a big chunk of change. In fact, the state salaries are rated at 4.5 out of a 1-5 scale, with 5 being the highest.
Maryland teachers also enjoy smaller classes than their national counterparts. So what’s the deal? Our teacher turnover ranking is 2.5 smack in the middle of the range in spite of smaller classes and higher salaries. Why aren’t teachers staying around?
To discover the answer to that question, one needs to dig a bit deeper into the data collected by the Learning Policy Institute as it sought to create a teacher attractiveness rating for each state. Maryland’s rating is only 2.1.
There are three important areas in which Maryland teachers feel they are at a disadvantage compared to their colleagues nationwide.
Seventy-seven percent of our nation’s teachers feel a sense of classroom autonomy. That number is almost 20% less in Maryland. Classroom autonomy is a big deal to teachers. They want to be able to close their doors and deliver the kind of instruction they think their students need. Pacing guides that demand teachers be on a certain page on a certain day, teaching to tests that are meaningless for many of our students, and having little to no say in the curriculum all make teachers feel more like cogs in a big wheel rather than as professionals making decisions in the best interest of students.
Maryland teachers also feel less supported by their administrators than do others across our country. The U.S. average for administrative support for teachers is 45%, less than half. But in Maryland that already bad number falls to 41%. Teaching is very hard work and teachers need the support of administrators when things go array. Clearly, teachers in Maryland do not feel they are getting that support. Unfortunately, the system is set up in such a way that there is almost an adversarial relationship between teachers and their leaders. These negative feelings seem to be extending throughout the school. Maryland teachers feel a much lower rate of collegiality within their schools as well. Only 26.9% of Maryland teachers experience that sense of “we are all in this together”. The Maryland ranking is 17% lower than the national average and like the other factors, leaves Maryland in lowest quintile when compared across the country. Maryland has almost 3 times as many uncertified teachers in high minority schools as other states.
What’s the cause and what’s the effect? Maryland has the highest percentage of teachers who are planning to leave teaching and the highest percentage of inexperienced and uncertified teachers. It is no wonder that about 11% of Maryland’s teachers are planning to leave the profession.
Perhaps it isn’t all about money and class size. Perhaps we need to stop throwing money at the problem and look at the culture in which our teachers are teaching. Perhaps we should act like we care about teachers and what is going on in the classroom and in our schools. Perhaps we could give them a little respect and include them in the decision making process. Maybe then we can figure out what it will take to make them stay. | 2019-04-22T22:41:00Z | https://drjharbour.blogspot.com/2017/ |

Coláiste Dhúlaigh will run a one-year part-time BA Degree course in Animation. This is awarded and accredited by The University of Wolverhampton and will commence in September 2014.
The programme is a joint collaboration between the University of Wolverhampton, the ETB and various representatives from the indigenous animation industry. Its aim will be to fulfil Wolverhampton’s BA learning criteria and satisfy the demands of industry, so that graduates will be ready to begin work upon course completion.
The course content has been designed with the input of industry representatives and will be led by highly experienced animation professionals.
The course will run on a part-time basis, two evenings and one day a week over one year. Formal classes and workshops will be on Monday and Tuesday evening between 5pm-9pm and a Friday Afternoon between 1pm-5pm. A considerable amount of work is expected to be completed outside of college time, however students will have access to their own resource room with computers and other facilities during college opening hours.
A large portion of the coursework will be based on a major year-long project, into which a number of modules will feed. Instead of limiting this to a short film, students’ will be given the opportunity to specialise in an animation related discipline of their choice. For example a student could negotiate a project to solely work on storyboarding or 3D Modelling, 2D Harmony/Flash animation, Maya/3DS Max animation, After Effects compositing etc.. The bulk of the course will be self-directed, It is expected that students having completed a HND2 and/or gained industrial experience will have a working knowledge of software, and will be capable of working independently with guidance from the course tutors. A significant number of guest lecturers will however provide practical workshops and lectures throughout the year. These sessions benefit all modules on the course.
Students will be required to work as interns with an animation/games/design studio during the course of the academic year. Relevant work experience will be essential in all BA students’ professional development and necessary to fully engage with the programme.
The course fee will be approximately €3,500 (payable in three instalments).
A BTEC HND with a minimum of 10 merits and/or relevant work experience in animation since graduating is also taken into consideration. An employer’s/college reference is essential. | 2019-04-21T06:34:04Z | http://pegbar.ie/site/index.php/ba-hons-degree-top-up-in-animation-at-colaiste-dhulaigh-cdcfe/ |

Traveling while pregnant may pose some risks to the expectant mother, which should be taken into consideration.
Travel insurance for seniors can be more difficult to obtain than one might imagine. Before the age of 55 most people can get travel insurance, even if it’s health related, without too much of a hassle.

continued this year, albeit with reduced numbers.
(yes, that's 16 ounces!) of lovingly cooked meat!
(except for the TEDIOUS stirring of the giant pots as I forgot my camera on those days).
The pie dough (made at an earlier date and frozen) is rolled to form tops and bottoms of the individual pies while the cooking continues in the kitchen.
Meanwhile the first cooled batches of meat are spooned into the shells and each is weighed and adjusted to ensure at least one pound of meat per pie.
Many hands make FUN work!
Sad to say, between the Bazaar and the church community, the 400 pies were sold out in short order! | 2019-04-19T00:43:09Z | http://summerlea.ca/en/2017Folks/2017-12-21-Tourtieres.htm |

Presumably over the previous decade, Oakley lsu sunglasses have turned into the most mainstream sunglasses in cycling. Also, this is no mishap. Oakley gives a strong and lightweight structure for its glasses, which will be advantageous for pretty much every client. In any case, it ought to be borne as a main priority that they have an extensive focal point region, so the edges of the focal point may come into contact with the cheekbones on wide faces, the long arms of Oakley lsu sunglasses may meddle with a few protective caps, and the scope of vision in the upper fringe zone might be marginally missed.
The Oakley lsu sunglasses dont smash or rub the face, and a light casing made of a material that is impervious to the impacts of the material backings an agreeable fit. Furthermore, even following a couple of long periods of socks, they remain flawlessly agreeable, which is particularly vital amid long distance races, cycling races, and different games. After serious mountain biking, the Oakley lsu sunglasses will remain precisely where you initially put them on.
The Oakley lsu sunglasses rendition varies in the territory of the focal point, which is around 5 mm bigger close to the upper piece of the casing, which made it conceivable to incredibly enhance fringe vision. We used to see the edge of the edge of sunglasses in our field of vision when we put on glasses, however in the Oakley lsu sunglasses demonstrate, the nearness of the fundamental leeway was thoroughly considered.
Recreated openings in the upper piece of the focal point, and the utilization of adaptable, tough and adaptable edge material, diminish the heaviness all things considered. Regardless of the additional stature of the focal point, the Oakley lsu sunglasses is 6 grams not exactly the first Oakley lsu sunglasses because of the way that the glasses presently have new lightweight arms and an uncommon adjusted structure. | 2019-04-21T13:01:19Z | http://multilatinfoods.com/oakley-lsu-sunglasses/ |
As a member of the Lee County Board of Health, I am writing about the need for a new Lee County Health Department building and location. For 20+ years the health department has demonstrated a need to move from its current location to a more practical and accessible building for the public and its employees.
1. The projected costs of renting and completing building repairs and maintenance for an old building in the long term outweighs the costs of a new county-owned building on county owned property. The heating and cooling system needs updated, the electrical system is outdated and at its maximum capacity, and the elevator has been dismantled and is beyond repair. For those interested, LCHD’s finance administrator has available financial data to support the comparable cost projections of remaining at the current location vs. a new building over the next 20-25-year period.
2. The second reason is the size and available space of the current location. This space is no longer compatible with the number of services/programs LCHD offers and the number of employees it houses. In 1989 when LCHD moved into the current location, there were just 6 programs with 22 employees. Today there are 19 programs with 36 employees, 4 contracted staff, and office volunteers, all working in just 7,500 square feet. Some staff/volunteers are working in hallways and many program materials/supplies are stacked in boxes and/or stored in any space available. Available storage space is completely full at ground level and the overflow storage room on the 4th floor of the rented building requires four flights of steps to store and retrieve needed supplies by program staff.
As stated before, LCHD has been looking for a new location for several years. Over 20 sites have been looked at for possibilities by the building committee. Most of the buildings looked at were in similar size or condition which would cost as much as a new building between purchasing property, making needed renovations, and land acquisition.
The building committee and Board of Health have determined that the best scenario involves building a new health department on county owned property next to the Sheriff’s Office. This would be centrally located and handicapped accessible. On behalf of the Board of Health, I am hoping the public understands the need for this new building and votes YES on May 2, 2017. If you would like to tour the current location or request additional information about the new building plans, please call the administrator at LCHD. | 2019-04-23T08:45:33Z | https://www.pencitycurrent.com/2017/04/12/letter-editor-lchd-boardmember-outlines-need-new-building/ |

Destiny Brown, 5-10, Guard, Monroeville, Pa. (Gateway HS) --- Brown is ranked No. 34 nationally by Blue Star Basketball and is a sixth-team Sporting News High School All-American. She averaged 13.6 points, 8.2 rebounds and 4.6 assists while leading Gateway (Pa.) High School. She played AAU basketball for the Philly Belles. "Destiny is a skilled shooting guard who has an excellent mid-range game and a high basketball IQ," said Mulkey. "She has good size and length for her position. Destiny will be able to stretch the defense and play multiple positions."
Congrats to Destiny and her family!
In ten seasons as a head coach at Gateway, Terry Smith has never missed the WPIAL Playoffs. In the previous nine years, the Gators have won every first round match up. That streak would continue tonight at Antamarino Stadium as Gateway scored 20 1st quarter points on its way to the 52-13 win over the 12th seeded Titans. Darin Franklin capped off the opening drive with a 1-yard touchdown run. Shaler was forced to punt on its initial possession, and Cody Conway blocked J.P. Holtz’ kick and Graham Davis recovered the ball in the end zone to put Gateway up 14-0. Devantae Butler would intercept Ryan Mincher on the next possession and Patrick Livsey would make that turnover hurt by scoring on a 2-yard run. With (4:29) remaining in the opening quarter, the Gators had jumped out to a 20-0 lead and this game was pretty much over. Thomas Woodson scored on a 26-yard run in the 2nd quarter and Franklin and Livsey would add their 2nd TD runs of the first half, and Gateway led 38-0 at halftime.
Brian Jones added a pair of second half TD runs to round out the scoring for the Gators. Mincher, who finished with 151-yards passing for the Titans, would throw scoring strikes to Sean Gavin from 24-yards and to Alex Conway from 9-yards - picking up most of his passing yardage after Gateway had already started substituting. The Gavin TD catch snapped Gateway’s scoreless streak at 165:24 minutes. Franklin finished with 107-yards rushing for Gateway, all in the first half, as the Gators rushed for 293-yards as a team.
Note: No newspaper articles were published on either the PG or TRIB sites that provided a summary of the game. Sorry!
We are slowly going through our archives and making videos such as these available free via our website - videos which have never been published before. Enjoy!
In one of the most complete and dominating games of Coach Smith's career, the Gators mercy-ruled McKeesport (6-3) at the Tiger's own stadium. At halftime, the Gators led 10-0 and had 188 yards of offense to 14 yards for McKeesport (13 plays).
In the 2nd half, the Gators kicked off to McKeesport and promptly forced them to punt after 3 plays and from there started a 28 point burst behind big plays by Darin Franklin. By 1:40 of the 3rd the Gators invoked the mercy rule on the Tigers and started subbing in the JV's who shut out the hosts the rest of the way. When the JV's started subbing at 1:40 - McKeesport had 26 yards of total offense!
This was the first time the Gators shut McKeesport out since 1986, the second time ever that the Gators shutout McKeesport in 33 total games dating back to 1975 - and coming into this game McKeesport was averaging 40 points per game.
McKeesport coach Jim Ward said "I don't think we expected this and how we responded to some of that adversity and not moving the ball early and some turnovers ... all those things shocked our guys, and we're sitting in a locker room where they thoroughly beat us."
For more on this game check out the news articles. The Gators will find out Monday their path to Heinz field (the WPIAL playoff brackets). We'll have that info by around 9pm Monday night.
The Gators held the visiting Falcons to a mere 133 yards of offense in winning their third shutout win of the season. (See news articles for more game info).
The Gators put up a valiant effort but couldn't punch in a second score and were held scoreless in the 2nd half in losing to Central, the #1 team in the state. Central extended their hex over the Gators by winning their 10th game in a row. Gateway's all-time record against PCC now stands at 12-18-1. The Gators will return to section play on the 21st against Connellsville.
The Gators scored 42 points in the 1st quarter, had a 62-0 halftime lead, and the JV's played the entire 2nd half and still scored another 23 points to make the final a record-breaking 85-0. Gators had 586 yards of offense to 28 for Norwin. Game played in a light rain most of the night.
The Sporting News annual college basketball preview recently hit newsstands, and Gateway senior Destiny Brown was recognized in the girls high school basketball preview section. Brown was selected to the sixth team of the magazine's All-American squad. She is the only Pennsylvania player among the 30 players on the six teams.
The team is made up of the top players in the country, regardless of year in school. Brown gave a verbal commitment in June to play in college at national power Baylor.
The Gators lost to PT for the first time since 2001, when the Gators D couldn't hold a 14-13 lead with 1:40 on the clock... allowing PT to drive down to the Gators 14 before kicking a 31 yard last second FG to win the Battle of the Bell.
See the news stories for more info.
The Gators got a stout defensive effort in their season opener against the defending PIAA AAA runners-up. Gateway (1-0) limited Bishop McDevitt (0-1) to just 167 yards of offense, including a paltry 39 on the ground, and forced three second half turnovers to pull away for a 28-7 victory from a soaking wet Antimarino Stadium in Monroeville.
The Gators - despite playing without starting QB Woodson, topped Bethel Park 4-0 on a great Friday night at Antimarino Stadium. Gators RB Franklin had two rushing TD's while Patrick Livsey added another. The "D" did not allow BP past midfield during the entire Varsity scrimmage - and Haakim Oliver added a 35 yard fumble return for a TD.
Up next, the Gators will take on AAA powerhouse Bishop McDevitt on Sunday Sept. 4 @ 6pm at home.
Tickets will be sold at the Monroeville Midget Football practice at Mosside Middle School on Tuesday August 30 from 6pm-8pm. Tickets are $5 Adult $3 Students for these 2 hours only.

Four Gators signed their Letter of Intent --- Armstead Williams Jr. LB Purdue, Dondi Kirby Jr. S Illinois, Keith Robinson Jr. DB Mercyhurst College and Christian Richardson WR John Hopkins University.
Since 2003, we have covered every single Gateway Gators football game, both home and away, scrimmages, and playoff games – 96 games in all. We’ve built the most popular high school football “team� site in Pennsylvania with over 500 visitors and gigabytes of images and video distributed each day. We’ve taken over 40,000 photos – all for free online on this site, hundreds of hours of video, and created over 500 video clips. Because we live in eastern Westmoreland County, it is - at minimum - an 80 mile round trip for us to each game, so to date we’ve driven well over 10,000 miles to attend all the games home and away.
During a typical season, we invest nearly $10,000 of our time, both personal and business, to operate this site, produce the videos and photo gallery, locate and publish content to the site, and our average income on the site has been around $200 a year. On a weekly basis, this represents over 20 hours a week of time we would otherwise be working on “paying� jobs or spending with our family and children.
It’s now time to ask you, the students and the community to be more involved in the site. We can no longer afford to devote this level of our time to maintaining the site without some sort of help from you.
Ideally we’d like volunteers to help take some of the roles needed to operate the site, but in the nearly two months we’ve had the “call for volunteers� posted on the homepage, we haven’t received a single inquiry.
We don’t know what our plans are for the 2011 season as of yet, but we’ll know a lot more based on the level of community or student interest we receive to help us take over parts of operating this great site.
Sideline videographer. This person will be responsible for taking all video pregame, during the game, and postgame for use on the GatewayGators.com web site. Previous experience filming football games (at some level) is preferred. Must supply your own HD camcorder (we use a Canon HF10) and be able to supply raw video to us so that we can make it into a weekly highlight video. Must be able to bring us the camera so that we can export the raw video within 12 hours of the game.
Web site content writer/blogger. Great opportunity for a student, alumni or other Gateway fan to use the resources of this web site and the internet to write content for our site and use this as part of your portfolio (if you need it). This will include writing periodic off-season stories, and more importantly writing the pregame warmups and postgame game stories. Also will be a "staff writer" for a blog that we will be implementing in 2011. Should have good writing ability and be able to send examples of written work.
If one of these opportunities interests you or you would like more information about the positions, please Contact Us and let us know. | 2019-04-19T21:19:24Z | http://www.gatewaygators.com/2011press_releases.asp |
More Gems from the John Thorn Treasure Trove.
It is always very pleasing to receive old photographs and thank heavens they have survived - here are three more from John Thorn. Many thanks John.
Here is Wrington station located on the Blagdon branch - seen here in 1961 some thirty years after closure of the station to passengers. The branch, a spur off the Cheddar Valley line from a junction at Congresbury, remained open for deliveries of coal to the pumping engines at Blagdon until 1963.

Hindenburg didn’t quite manage to get over 50% of the votes (criteria needed to become president) so it had to go to a second round.
Despite the enormous leap forward Hitler and the Nazis made in terms of the percentage of votes they achieved, Hitler was personally very disappointed; he wanted to win. Goebbels on the other hand, declared the result a victory because it showed their tactics (such as flying Hitler all over Germany by plane) had made a difference.
Brüning had been chancellor since 1930 but was really unpopular because he was unable to fix the German economy after the Wall street Crash of 1929. He didn’t have the support of the German people, nor did he have the support of the elected politicians in the Reichstag. | 2019-04-19T00:48:02Z | https://gcsehistorywithmissbez.com/1932-political-intrigue/ |

Another year, come and gone.
It’s funny because as a blogger, I mark so much of my success with time. Visitors per month, income per month, recurring annual posts like my 40 Before 40 series and my favorite meals or photos of the year.
Yet each December I feel somewhat unpleasantly surprised when one year winds down and another comes barreling along.
For the past two years, I’ve joined my friend Malia from Shoyu Sugar in choosing a ‘word of the year’ or mantra to guide my efforts and intentions. In 2016, my word was ‘minimize,’ and in 2017, I chose the word ‘muse.’ While each year, my yearly mantra hasn’t exactly taken the form I’d expect, it’s been an interesting hallmark of the year.
For example, in 2017, I thought muse would guide my creative efforts and endeavors; in reality, I learned to surrender to creative curiosity and accept more structured projects (like my job) when they presented themselves to me. Sometimes, I was in control of the muse, and sometimes she exerted more control me.
Continue writing on this blog and sharing stories from around the world.
Finish writing a book I started writing in September.
Continue freelance writing and publishing with travel magazines and sites.
Embrace my new role as managing editor at Go Overseas, and cultivate a culture that encourages my writers to do their best work.
Some of these projects came to fruition; some stepped out of my spotlight; others not on this list became much bigger priorities than I expected.
I definitely did a lot of blogging here, and on my website, Space Tourism Guide. I did not finish writing my blog, and I was much less active in freelance writing. While in January 2017, my role as Managing Editor was a contract, part-time, remote role, in January 2018, I am full-time in-office employee for Go Overseas.
In short, both definitions of muse came true: “the source of inspiration for a creative artist” and “be absorbed in thought.” I thought and worked and was inspired. In its way, muse was the right word for 2017.
As you can see, my thoughts have turned toward health and wellness and my relationships. While I’m doing great at work, life isn’t just about work. I want to practice better wellness (I am in my 30s, after all!), and I want to be stronger, both physically and emotionally. I want to take better care of myself and the people I care about – and my relationships with them. Each of these words, like contenders from other years, was right in some ways – but not all ways.
In the end, one word stood out to me over and over. It came up as I thought about self-care. And my relationships. And my work.
In many ways, I need more balance in my life. I work a lot, but I also want to balance my full-time work and responsibilities with my personal passion projects. I want to balance personal time, work time, time with friends, and time with Mr. Valise. I want to work on my health and wellness, and balance that with the permission to indulge from time to time.
I’m sorta hoping, as in years past, that the word I choose will as much guide me as shape me and my life in 2018.
I predict I’ll get better at setting a semi-consistent schedule for work and non-work time.
I want to balance work and time which is truly not work (something I’m not good at!).
I’ll get way better at standing poses in yoga, and possibly add a few inverted poses to my repertoire.
I will balance more doing and measuring the impact of what I’m doing. In most projects, I have a tendency to get caught up in the data and not do any work.
I’ll work on better balancing my health, particularly focusing on getting better hydrated each day.
So that’s it from me. What are your resolutions or mantras for the new year?
I started coming up with two words for the year a couple of yours ago as part of therapy. My words for 2017 was Faith and Acceptance. Which I think I did. For 2018 I’m leaning towards commit and focus. The prior words wore more personal. I want to be more committed and focused on the blog and writing.
I love all of your words, and I’m so glad choosing a word is helpful for you too! Commit and focus sound like great choices for 2018.
Happy New Year, Valerie! Balance is SUCH a good word for 2018. Are you using any tools to help you achieve that balance?
I think my goal/word/mantra for 2018 is “share” – can you believe that I am STILL paralyzed by lack of confidence when it comes to sharing and (ick) self-promotion? I hope I can finally get over that wall this year! You’re so good at it. I need to look to you for inspiration.
As for me and balance, I don't have any tools, but that's a good idea to look into some!
Happy New year friend! this is SUCH a great word for the year ( and def one im looking to do as well ) ! thanks so much for sharing and being so personal on your blog!
Balance – such a great mantra for 2018! It’s so important yet so hard to achieve! I hope you get to achieve your balance!
Thanks, Belle! Hope your 2018 is off to a great start!
Such a great mantra!! It’s definitely something that I would also like to focus on in 2018.
Right? It’s always a good reminder, any year!
I like how the word balance plays into so many aspects of your life. I chose believe this year for many reasons!
I think that’s how the best mantras work – they work for many areas of life!
I actually thought about having Balance as my word for 2018. In the end though I chose abundance, I want to recognize the good that I have around me as well as fill my life and home with things and relationships that fill me up!
Abundance is a wonderful word too! I hope the year brings you abundance in many ways!
That is such a nice idea, never thought of it.
I think balance is quite difficult to get. Of course it’s not impossible, but it takes a lot of work and practice.
I love the idea of balance. It has so many meanings. Great post, by the way!
Balance is such a great word and something I think everyone struggles with, so I love that you’ll spend a whole year focusing on it!
I hope I can do so — it’s a challenge to build the good habits! | 2019-04-24T10:21:05Z | https://www.valisemag.com/2018-yearly-mantra/ |

Stephanie Meadow, one of the heroes of Great Britain and Ireland's 2012 Curtis Cup victory, teamed up with Georgia Hall in the first four-ball match against Team USA's Emma Talley and Mariah Stackhouse. Talley and Stackhouse came out on top with a 2&1 victory that they led from the fourth hole on.
The Americans swept the three morning four-ball matches for the early lead. The Great Britain and Ireland team then earned a half in the first and third afternoon foursomes, as Team USA jumped out to a 5-1 lead after the first day of action.
The remaining four-ball matches in the morning saw USA's Alison Lee and Kyung Kim defeat Annabel Dimmock and Gemma Dryburgh 4&3 while American's Annie Park and Ally McDonald downed Bronte Law and Charlotte Thomas 4&3 as well.
Meadow (pictured) got GB&I on the scoreboard in the afternoon foursomes as she paired with Hall once again to halve their match with Ashlan Ramsey and Lee. Talley teamed with Mississippi State's McDonald in the afternoon foursomes and halved their match with Dimmock and Law. Park and Erynne Lee also defeated Eilidh Briggs and Gabriella Cowley 3&1. | 2019-04-18T22:33:40Z | https://www.womenandgolf.com/news/women-and-golf-news-archive/560-curtis-cup-2014 |

We all need to think about an Estate Planning checklist at some point -- like NOW!
We can leave this earth at any point, right?
You've accumulated savings and "stuff" over a lifetime - why not allow yourself to decide who gets what?
Death is part of aging, most of my parents friends (in their mid-80s) are gone. They've lost about 20 couples from their Vegas vacation spot over the past few years alone, one by one, but death is inevitable. We simply need to think a little about our posessions - before someone else gets that job.
Just a little bit of estate planning gives you peace of mind!
You can also get peace of mind from writing your own Ethical Will. Leaving your own "moral compass" for younger generations is a great gift to the family.
First, if you are married, just consider, for one moment, the death of your spouse.
WHEN should update your Estate Planning document?
Many people wait until a big life event happens to make changes to their wills... consider these life events as they all majorly can affect your estate planning. Some of thse will not change your plans but some will... and only you and your specific circumstances will know that.
Inside -- you will find my Understanding Grief ebook and a second document with worksheets to help you think through the process.
Click to purchase for only $5.00 and begin to Live your Life again! You will get a direct download link as soon as you buy it!
You can now learn lots about wills on line, even writing your own wills with a do it yourself will (for smaller estates), or hire an inheritance attorney or probate attorney to get the job done right.
Handwritten wills are accepted in some states. Do It Yourself Wills are relatively easy online. There are fill in the blank formats for wills online.
I LOVE THIS... Beautifully Written by Henry Scott Holland (1847–1918) was Regius Professor of Divinity at the University of Oxford.
Even if you feel you have no "estate" for planning, you don't have a home, IRA's and investments, you still have personal possessions that should go to whom you wish to receive them, right? Do you understand what happens when you have no will?
Wouldn't you prefer to choose who gets what, instead of someone else doing that job?
Your home, car, savings and such are the "estate" that probably need, in the least, a will that you've documented what you want done at your death. That could be relatively simple estate planning.
Many of your investments like IRA's, 401K's, 403B's, etc, have a named beneficiary. They automatically go to that person if you die. They are outside of a will, they supersede the will, and are automatically distributed.
Some pension plans, like defined benefit pension plans often provide a survivor benefit to a spouse, at the employees death.
Then there is the Social Security survivor benefit to check out... hey, you need to know everything so you know what you are eligible should death of a spouse or family member happen.
If you have no will, what happens?
do you want that? I think not.
This FREE Estate Planning Resource Guide was written by the State of Michigan... find one for your own state - OR - download it below and use the checklists and forms to get your estate in order.
Enter for your search either (1) Michigan Estate Planning (or whatever state you are from) - or - (2) Michigan Do It Yourself Wills. I think you'll find oodles of information from your own State government. Each State is different so you do need to look specifically at your own State.
Simple wills are easy to do online. If you are worried about it, do one, take it to an attorney to review it -- it will cost you lots less to have them review it, compared to having them use their will template and fill in the blanks for you.
Do you realize that an Attorney is specialized like doctors? You wouldn't use an orthopedic doctor for a heart attack and you shouldn't use a criminal attorney for your estate. Seriously, use Google or recommendations from family or friends for an Estate Attorney... this is so important!

Are you struggling or fighting with your child’s other parent about how to parent?
Are you negotiating a parenting plan or schedule of visitation?
Do you find the transition from couple hood to co-parenting more challenging than you thought?
Have you been co-parenting for years and still struggle to communicate effectively or with ease?
How to divide your child’s time between you and the other parent.
Who makes the decisions about childcare, health care, education, and extracurricular activities.
How to communicate about your child’s school, health and behavioral problems.
How to communicate in front of the child.
Medical emergencies and first options for child care.
Many parents are shocked by how difficult all of this is to figure out while also going through the enormous heartache (and headache!) of separation and divorce. Or if you’ve been separated for a while, many feel frustrated that they are still in conflict.
Feelings of sadness and disillusionment, betrayal and hurt may permeate the negotiation process, making it difficult to be clear headed about what may be in your child’s best interests. Often, parents feel guilty because they think the children are suffering and shame because they feel they failed to keep the family together.
Asking for help from a professional can feel vulnerable and scary, but it also shows how important your family is to you! It gives you an opportunity to take an important step toward finding peace and creating a healthy family environment where you can all thrive.
We mediate these conflicts and challenges in a compassionate and neutral environment. Using a parenting plan guideline and a model of understanding in conflict, we will support you in recognizing what is in the best interests of your children. We will also work on building your communication skills to allow for healthier, empathic communication and more effective co-parenting. | 2019-04-22T10:20:39Z | https://headandhearttherapy.com/services/co-parenting-counseling/ |
Wild garden bird nesting box in kit form, self assembly kit DIY for the family.
I have been asked to provide many bird boxes in kit form, so that Mums & Dads can make the little birdy box with their children. This one is for a bird that prefers an open front such as a robin rather than a box with a closed front and small hole. This kit is made from a very pale coloured, almost white plywood, very unusual.
The one in the photograph is an example, yours will be close to that shown. It shows the finished item, don't forget, yours will be just the kit to make it.
It is made from recycled plywood, I will supply all the panels of wood plus panel pins to nail them together. I would recommend that the pieces are glued as well as being pinned. (glue not supplied).
If you would prefer, I can supply it ready made for the same price.
These are popular for adults for give to children so that they can make them together, good for teaching children simple carpentry skills. I would suggest adult supervision if young children are involved.

It is believed a person posing as a clown made the threats at around 5.20pm on Tuesday (11 October). A 13-year-old boy has been arrested on suspicion of making a malicious communication and released on bail.
The so-called 'creepy clown craze' has sparked sightings of clowns throughout the UK. The phenomenon started in the southern states of the US. Police forces have dealt with reports of "clowns" jumping out to scare people and lurking in dark places, chasing people and carrying weapons.
British police forces have issued guidance for citizens worried about a possible threat and warned those dressing up as clowns that they could face action. Despite this Cumbria Police said they have received 23 reports of "creepy clowns" incidents in the past 24 hours.
A force spokesman said according to the BBC: "We are continuing to receive reports of the clown craze, which is causing distress and fear to people in our community. We appreciate that the majority of the public understand the impact and harm that this is causing, particularly to children.
"We are hoping that this craze will pass this week and we would urge the small minority of people still taking part to stop. Dressing up as a clown and deliberately trying to scare and intimidate others is causing a lot of distress to people and we will not tolerate it.
"This prank could lead to arrests for a public order offences, possession of offensive weapons or even assault."
Cumbria Police said among the 23 incidents were reports of a man wearing a white mask following a group of young children — a 23-year-old was later cited for a public order offence. An 11-year-old girl was allegedly chased by a clown carrying an axe in Workington.
A man, dressed as a creepy clown, allegedly jumped out of a car, in Millom, frightening a woman. A teacher in Carlisle reported that a nine-year-old pupil had been chased by three adults wearing distinctive clown masks and in Barrow a church choir practice was disrupted by youths dressed as clowns. | 2019-04-24T22:46:15Z | https://www.ibtimes.co.uk/creepy-clown-craze-thirteen-year-old-girl-threatened-rape-having-throat-cut-instagram-1586074 |
Commercialization of technology is a collaborative process between the Technology Transfer Office, researchers, and partners. Therefore, Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP) now have an Office of Technology Transfer (TTO) under the Department of Research & Innovation dedicated to identifying research which has potential commercial interest and strategies for how to exploit it. For instance, a research result may be of scientific and commercial interest, but patents are normally only issued for practical processes, and so someone not necessarily the researchers must come up with a specific practical process, proof of concept and market prototype.
Successful technology transfer often results in a business license or a start-up company. In addition to traditional technology transfer, the TTO carries out a number of other functions, such as working with faculty to facilitate their research activities and collaborations with other institutions and with commercial partners. The TTO also serves as an interface between UMP and the business community, including economic development efforts.
Programme (GTP). Under the Prime Minister's initiative, Unit Inovasi Khas (UNIK) was established in August 2010 to act as the focal point for innovation in Malaysia and to drive the surge forward towards developing an innovation-led economy. As a result of UNIK's recommendation, the National Innovation Agency (Agensi Inovasi Malaysia, or AIM) was set up by an Act of Parliament (Akta Agensi Inovasi Malaysia 2010).
1. To bring about societal well-being through the cultivation of the innovation eco-system.
2. To drive the national innovation agenda to generate new-wave wealth.
Given the nature of its mandate, AIM operates across the boundaries of government, allowing it to employ a whole-of-government approach in its operations. AIM will cut across borderlines to engage with all Ministries and Agencies on any matters relating to innovation to ensure the entire country's efforts are being effectively focused on accomplishing Malaysia's national innovation goals.
TTO reviews invention disclosures and interviews the inventor(s) in order to develop a clear understanding of the invention's technical merit, patentability or protect ability, and commercial potential. The evaluation process also determines whether funds will be expended to patent an invention and serves as the foundation for the commercialization strategy.
Establishing collaborations and working relationships between industry and each of the research and creative areas of UMP. Whether working with existing alliance partners, new corporate partners, spinoff companies, entrepreneurs, venture capital or angel investors, Technology Transfer Office staff are continuously in the process of patenting technologies, licensing inventions, and helping spin-out new ventures. | 2019-04-22T00:35:25Z | http://research.ump.edu.my/index.php/en/units/technology-transfer-office |

Chrome has been making changes to how ads are displayed in the browser for some time now. In the most recent update of Google’s browser, some autoplay videos will now be blocked, while others will be allowed automatically.
In a blog post, Google outlines how the new autoplay video update works. Now Chrome will learn your preferences when it comes to videos that autoplay with sound. Using your browsing history, Chrome will start enabling or disabling autoplay videos with sound. If you typically choose to play videos on certain websites, Chrome will allow autoplay videos to run with sound. If you typically don’t watch the videos on a site, Chrome will start disabling their autoplay videos with sound.
Even if you don’t have a browsing history, the blog post says, certain sites will have their autoplay videos enabled or disabled as you start building your history. Whichever sites have the most people clicking to play videos with sound will automatically be enabled for you until the browser learns that you don’t want videos played on those sites.
This update comes after Google has already implemented many other ways to avoid certain ads and mute sites that autoplay ads with sound. In February, Chrome’s ad blocking system went live. Their ad blocking is meant to start automatically blocking certain ads that don’t meet their standards. And in January, Chrome introduced a way to permanently mute sites instead of just temporarily muting them while the tab was open.
All of these changes mean Chrome should soon become the browser to use if you specifically want to avoid annoying ads and autoplay videos (especially if you don’t want to deal with browser add-ons). In their blog post, Google notes that their new autoplay video blocking system will block “about half” of the autoplay videos that users want to avoid. Though not a full block of autoplay videos, it should cut down significantly on the annoyance of sound suddenly blasting from your device. | 2019-04-22T05:05:38Z | https://easyinternetnow.com/category/trends/ |

Microlearning is a technique that focuses on small, easily digestible lessons, instead of longer and more comprehensive teaching sessions. The benefits of microlearning are particularly well suited to the modern “on-the-go” lifestyle, especially when it comes to business environments. Whether you’re a leader in your organization or simply an interested employee, microlearning has the potential to transform your organizations’ training programs. Here’s how.
Businesses spend a huge amount of time and money on training — $156 billion in 2011 alone — but often have little to show for it. Indeed, research has shown that as much as 90 percent of newly learned skills may be lost within a year. The reasons behind that poor retention rate are likely related to the method of learning itself. In contrast to day-long teaching sessions, microlearning allows employees to focus on one “mini lesson” or skill at a time. That means that at the end of the day, when students’ brains work to process and catalog the information they learned that day, they only need to be filing away one skill, not an entire day’s worth of lessons.
One of the biggest benefits of microlearning is that it allows you to learn skills just as they’re needed. This not only makes the skill easier to learn; it makes it more likely to stay learned, since you’ll be putting it to use straight away. This immediate neural reinforcement helps you maximize the value of the lessons, and also makes it easier for students to navigate the professional responsibilities that the microlearning lesson relates to.
Microlearning lets employers get instant feedback on how a lesson is received and retained. By consuming shorter lessons, employers can track how individual employees are responding to the lesson, and then use that information to evaluate how useful the lesson was. Lessons that multiple students struggle with can be adjusted to be more effective in the future or simply omitted entirely from future training programs. Over time, this allows employers to only focus on the lessons that provide meaningful results, allowing a degree of micromanaged course optimization that simply isn’t possible with longer learning sessions.
In the modern workplace, asking employees to find the time to block out an entire hour or two at once for education sessions is often an exercise in frustration. With packed schedules and “always connected” work habits, there are simply too many other factors competing for attention to be able to justify such a large block of time. In contrast to longer lessons, microlearning means your employees only need to set aside 15 minutes spread out across the entire week for their lessons. The shortest microlearning sessions can even take place within the span of a single brief coffee break. This flexibility ensures that employees can schedule their learning sessions only during the times when they’re prepared to truly digest the information that’s being taught.

As an organization matures, leaders need to possess certain attributes in order to move the organization through the different levels of growth. For example, a visionary and innovator is needed during the start-up phase, but through the growth and plateauing stages time that same leader will need to evolve into a strong decision maker and an active listener. Leaders who lack the requisite attributes at different stages of an organization’s growth often find themselves to be ineffective or even replaced. We have all heard of a company founder being replaced once the company has established itself.
Quinn and Rohrbaugh (1981) introduced the idea of a competing values framework in which organizations have four basic values that are in tension with one another: collaborate, create, control, and compete. One or two of those values will be higher in a given organization compared to a different organization. The leader’s skills and characteristics should align with the culture of the organization to maximize effectiveness. Imagine a super-driven, competitive leader who is highly disciplined and achievement oriented. Now imagine inserting that same leader into an organization with a highly collaborative and relationally intensive culture. Such a combination is a recipe for disaster – not because the leader is a “bad leader” or the organizational culture is unhealthy; rather, because there was not a match and the leader could not adjust his or her style and/or the organizational culture could not change to align with the leader’s style.
When an organization is in the midst of a significant change initiative, it requires a certain set of attributes from a leader more so than at times of stability. Those skills include inspiring people to action, effective communication, and caring for people. If a leader cannot align his or her style to meet the unique needs of an organization during a major change effort, the change may fail and the leader may be viewed as ineffective.
Effective leadership is part art, part science. It is the ability of leaders to adapt, change, and align to the world in which they find themselves and the ability to identify and apply the required attributes to a given situation. Those attributes must evolve along the organization’s life-cycle, culture, and change management climate. Leaders should be self-aware of what is needed at different stages, but it is also the responsibility of the individuals who develop them (consultants, coaches, L&D professionals, etc.) to identify where the leaders excel and where there is an opportunity for development.

On April 9, 2015, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service’s Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) issued an important decision that will impact thousands of H-1B employers across the country.
In its precedential decision, Matter of Simeio Solutions, LLC, 26 I&N Dec. 542 (AAO 2015), the AAO held that when an H-1B employee changes his or her place of employment (worksite) to a new geographical area, it constitutes a “material change” in employment that requires the employer to file an amended H-1B petition on behalf of the employee.
In today’s global economy, many employees including H-1B employees complete some or all of their job duties away from company headquarters. Many companies permit employees to “telecommute” and work from their home offices. Other positions require that employees travel to third party client sites for significant portion of their employment. The preparation of H-1B petitions always requires that employers provide detailed information about the location or locations where the work will be performed. However, with the decision in Matter of Simeio Solutions, LLC, employers are well advised to take pause, carefully consider and discuss any and all potential worksites for the H-1B employee throughout the duration of the requested H-1B period. Employers should also carefully review with their telecommuting employees any potential changes in residential address during the validity of the employee’s H-1B status with the company.
The H-1B process requires employers to first file a Labor Condition Application (LCA) (ETA Form 9035/9035E) with the U.S. Department of Labor and have the LCA certified. Once the LCA is certified by the U.S. Department of Labor, an employer may file an I-129 Petition requesting H-1B classification for qualified professional foreign national employees in a specialty occupation.
In filing the LCA for certification by the U.S. Department of Labor, an employer makes several attestations or promises, including that it will pay the required wage, which is the higher of the prevailing wage for the geographic area or areas in which the worksite is located and the actual wage for the position.
The required minimum prevailing wage for a position will depend on the specialty occupation and the geographic location or locations of the worksite. For example, in 2014-2015, the minimum required annual salary for an entry level Software Developer in Los Angeles, California is $69,742.00. In Atlanta, Georgia, the minimum required salary for the same entry level Software Developer position is only $57,949.00. In instances where an H-1B employee will be employed at worksites in multiple geographical areas, the employer is required to pay the employee the higher of the required prevailing wages. Thus, in the example above, the employer would be required to pay the H-1B employee a minimum salary of $69,742.00 for the duration of the H-1B employee’s employment with the company.
Employers with H-1B employees telecommuting or working at third party worksites routinely list any and all potential worksites, including home offices and client sites, on the initial LCA certified by the Department of Labor. The employer agrees to pay the H-1B employee the highest prevailing wage for each of the geographical areas listed. The I-129 petition submitted by the employer to USCIS requesting H-1B classification for a qualified foreign national employee lists all worksites and includes the certified LCA. USCIS then reviews the petition and, if the employer and employee qualify, approves the H-1B petition. In the event that there is a material change in the terms of employment, USCIS requires that the employer file an amended I-129 petition.
Even with careful practices, employers inevitably face issues with their telecommuting H-1B employees’ change of residential addresses to geographical areas not covered on the LCA or the need to assign H-1B workers to a projects at client worksites that are not covered on the LCA.
In the past, due to the lack of clear guidance on the issue, where employers faced a change in geographical location of a worksite, but no other material change in job duties, many employers simply filed a new LCA with the Department of Labor for the new worksite. The Employer would then maintain the new LCA in its Public Access File and abide by the minimum prevailing wage requirements on the new and updated LCA. In these circumstances, many employers would not take any further action to amend the H-1B petition itself, with the understanding that alone, a change in geographic location did not constitute a “material change” in the terms of employment.
The decision in Matter of Simeio Solutions, LLC turns that approach on its head. In the decision, the AAO determined that the change of worksite to a new geographical area not listed on the certified LCA constitutes a “material change” and therefore requires both the filing and certification of a new LCA and the filing of an amended H-1B petition by the employer.
Employers will now be required to file amended H-1B petitions and pay the requisite USCIS filing fees in cases where their H-1B employees change their worksite to a new geographical area. H-1B employers facing issues with changes in worksites for current and future H-1B employees are strongly encouraged to discuss the impact of Matter of Simeio Solutions, LLC with experienced legal counsel. The decision is available here: http://www.justice.gov/eoir/vll/intdec/vol26/3832.pdf.

*Two texts were used: an unabridged (six volumes) where detail was desired and an abridged text by D. M. Low for context reading.
The parallels found in the early history of the ancient republic of the Roman Empire to that of the United States today are remarkable. Author Gibbon spent the majority of his life perusing biographies, government actions and documents, societal mores, and other histories in order to delve into the causes for the decline and eventual collapse of one of the world’s greatest civilizations. The Roman Empire was a model republic, copied and sought by many, including the United States. While we did not adopt all of its ideals, some are obvious: a strong military defense, a civil code strictly enforced, great respect for education, and a deep commitment to constitutional government while retaining individual freedom.
In its infancy, Gibbon stresses that the greatness of the Roman Empire was due to its commitment to retain these principles. What happened, that the great empire lost these ideals and its place as the world leader? What lessons are in this scenario of Gibbon’s for us?
Gibbon wrote these volumes in the eighteenth century (first published in 1776) with no knowledge of the United States at all, so we cannot assume that he directed his conclusions toward us. Yet they fit like a glove. Perhaps the most striking parallel, because of its timeliness, is that the Roman Empire’s most dangerous failure was in its loss of control of its borders. The Empire allowed foreign ideologies to become rooted in its own educational and government systems (original chapters 31-34). These foreign bodies displaced the foundation principles of a strong republic that protected individual freedoms. Education was infiltrated with socialist ideas rather than fresh ideas, and new cultures were not a diverse variety but a carefully planned insidious infiltration (the first of these by Attila).
The second egregious failure was in the Empire’s giving itself over to self-indulgence. Christianity was once a strong part of the Roman Empire and even in its partner of Catholicism, there was respect for religion. Constantine made it law that Christianity was to be tolerated throughout the Empire. Yet the individuals became foolish in their prosperity and gave way to self rather than to ethic. Then Emperor Julian (361-363 A.D.) reversed the Constantine edicts and persecuted Christians and Jews and restored the practices of Pagan Idol worship. This left the society without morals and creed and the party life began. No more was the individual responsible for himself, nor was he obligated to maintain dignity (p. 699, original text). Gibbon refers to this as the “decay of taste” (ibid.) and further elaborates this to be just that, the lack of taste in art, dress, manners, and even education subjects.
There is also the matter of a constant decline in the preservation of the Empire’s history and its symbols. In chapter 71 (abridged text) Gibbon reports, “The public and private edifices, founded for eternity, lie prostrate, naked, and broken, and their ruin is the more visible by the relics that have survived” (p. 890). He continues a few sentences later by concluding, “Every successive age hastened the ruin of works of antiquity” (ibid.). We see a cataclysmic shift from attendance to important matters to obsession with sports, animal worship, and parties as another of the reasons Gibbon gives for the decline of this great Empire. These activities became primary rather than secondary, and important issues of defense and liberty took a back seat.
Finally, Gibbon points to the domestic hostilities (his words) that permeated the country before any action was taken to abate these crimes. Citizens lived in fear of lawlessness and its consequence to them and their properties. No ruling authority was given enough power to effectively quell the violence. The law of the land became ‘if you have something I want, I’ll either steal it from you or kill you for it.’ To his credit, Gibbon reveals that his gut instinct was the decline and fall occurred when the moral base of Christianity was disregarded more than by the outward invasions. “In comparing the two, we must pronounce domestic hostility the far more ruinous to the city. The relics of Rome, the image of her pristine greatness neither time nor the barbarian can boast the merit of this tremendous destruction; it was perpetrated by her own citizens, having done with the (pagan) battering ram what the Punic hero could not accomplish with the sword” (chapter 71, p. 898/ abridged text). | 2019-04-23T12:20:30Z | http://aletheiabaptistministries.org/Blog/book-review/the-decline-and-fall-of-the-roman-empire-gibbon-dec-2004/ |

Usually, when you speak to someone about aluminum welding, their first reaction is to look a bit panicked. The perception is that aluminum is difficult to deal with – from cleanliness, to the thermal conductivity, bead appearance, and feeding that soft wire when MIG welding. It can all seem a bit intimidating if you’ve never had to deal with it before. On the last point, if you’re just performing semi-automatic GMAW using a spool of aluminum wire, feeding it is relatively simple. Ensure your contact tip, drive rolls, and liner are correct, use a good quality push-pull gun, and you should be off to the races.
More and more aluminum is being welded in an automotive environment today than ever before. This usually means some form of arc welding robot system is being used to weld parts. In this situation, a 20 lb spool of wire is really not practical to use. The robotic systems are meant to have high uptime, so stopping to change a spool out all the time isn’t productive. Just like steel though, aluminum can be packed in bulk to help increase productivity by eliminating spool change over time.
But now we’re introducing another potential problem. As aluminum is a soft and active wire, there can be some challenges when trying to feed from a bulk system. The wire will have a tendency to tangle, which creates a pretty big feeding issue, and you’re left with downtime, which will cost you money.
forklift or crane. Since the package is made from cardboard, glass gems, and aluminum wire, this system is also 100 per cent recyclable when you’re done with it.
The Gem-Pak offers up to 300 lbs in one package to achieve maximum up time – approximately 30 minutes for a change over, or 540 minutes total change over for the equivalent weight in spools (about 18.75 spools per one Gem-Pak). This can mean as much as a 94 per cent decrease in spool change over time. That’s a lot of production time gained. Depending on how much welding you’re doing, usually a package will only need to be changed once or twice a month.
Case studies have shown that the Gem-Pak not only helps to reduce downtime, but end users can boost their productivity by increasing wire feed speeds. The unique winding and packaging reduces the amount of pull force required to feed the aluminum, which helps to increase the usable wire speed range and increases deposition rates.
In one specific case, an end user reported that they previously had to reduce their wire feed speeds with other bulk packages to reduce tangles and feed issues. By switching to the Gem-Pak, they were able to increase their wire feed speeds, as well as travel speeds. This particular automotive user reported a 12.5 per cent increase in productivity, a 3 per cent decrease in rework, and a 50 per cent reduction in contact tip and liner usage, realizing $722,983.61 in annual savings.

Most individual states in the US collect state income tax along with federal income tax. These are two separate entities. There are even local governments imposing a certain income tax based on state income tax calculations. The seven states in the US that do not have income tax do tax dividends and interest which is an important concern for the retirees. These states are called No Income Tax States. It is to be noted that these states do require funds for various government services and they raise these funds through property taxes, sales taxes and various other fees.
Alaska is one of the best places for you if your main problem is saving money. This is the northernmost state of America and because of its harsh winters and its distance from the remaining part of the country; this state is not for every individual. As per Tax Foundation, average local and state tax paid was $3,319 which is the lowest amount among the other fifty states of America. There are low property taxes and no sales tax. The state funds its government services through the royalties on gas and oil production. Apart from low taxes, the people living in Alaska get benefit of these royalties with the Permanent Fund of Alaska paying yearly dividend depending on the earnings of royalties to the residents of Alaska.
The warm weather of Florida has always drawn tourists from throughout the world. The state of Florida has not had any kind of income tax since the year 1855. Government services of the state are funded through property taxes and 6% sales tax.
The tourism and the gambling industry of Nevada have always served as the main source of income for the people living in this state. Apart from this, the lack of corporate and individual income taxes serves as one of the major attractions for residents and businesses. Very similar to the other tourist-friendly states in the US, Nevada gets its funds from use and sales taxes starting at 6.85% making up 72% of the total revenue of this state.
South Dakota levies no income tax on corporations and individuals. This state obtains its funds through several use taxes and 4% sales tax. As per reports presented in the year 2013, the state made 71% of the total revenue from use and sales taxes.
Texas is a state in the United States that funds itself by way of 6.25% sales taxes, motor vehicle fuel and sales tax and the royalties and taxes on the production of natural gas and oil. There is no form of corporation income tax levied in Texas. This is genuinely helped through the gas and oil throughout the Gulf of Mexico and the entire state.
This state does not have a corporate income tax but it does have gross receipts tax charging businesses of 1% of their revenue roughly. The government services in this state are funded through 6.5% sales tax making up over 60% of the total revenue. There are localities adding to this total taking the sales tax as high as 9.5% in certain areas.
Wyoming acquires its funds through taxes on natural resources and even through property taxes. The property tax rate in this state is 9.5% and the sales tax rate is 4%.
Tennessee does not have income tax but it actually has hall tax. This is 6% tax on dividends and interests specifically allowed by state constitution. The state also possesses 7% sales tax. One of the most contentious issues in Tennessee is the income taxes.
Even New Hampshire does not have income tax but it has 5% tax on dividends and interest. There is no sales tax in the state but there is an 8.5% corporate tax.
No Income Tax Really That Great?
If you’re considering moving to state that has no income tax make sure you will actually benefit from this. Many states that don’t have income tax will have other taxes to make up for it. For example Florida has a special tax on real estate property located in hurricane or flood zones. This tax is very expensive and other states have similar taxes.
Some websites provides a payday loan matching service and some states tax us heavily while others don’t. We are even restricted from lending in some states entirely. In some of these states it doesn’t make financial sense for us to offer services. My point is perform your due diligence before packing up and moving out because you could get slapped with an unexpected tax that makes that state just as expensive as where you came from. | 2019-04-25T20:07:57Z | http://noincometaxstates.com/ |
When my mother began using the electronic pump that fed her liquids and medication, we moved her to the family room. The bedroom she shared with my father was upstairs, and it was impossible to carry the machine up and down all day and night. The pump itself was attached to a metal stand on casters, and she pulled it along wherever she went. From anywhere in the house, you could hear the sound of the wheels clicking out a steady time over the grout lines of the slate-tiled foyer, her main thoroughfare to the bathroom and the kitchen. Sometimes you would hear her halt after only a few steps, to catch her breath or steady her balance, and whatever you were doing was instantly suspended by a pall of silence.
I was usually in the kitchen, preparing lunch or dinner, poised over the butcher block with her favorite chef’s knife in my hand and her old yellow apron slung around my neck. I’d be breathless in the sudden quiet, and, having ceased my mincing and chopping, would stare blankly at the brushed sheen of the blade. Eventually, she would clear her throat or call out to say she was fine, then begin to move again, starting her rhythmic ka-jug; and only then could I go on with my cooking, the world of our house turning once more, wheeling through the black.
I wasn’t cooking for my mother but for the rest of us. When she first moved downstairs she was still eating, though scantily, more just to taste what we were having than from any genuine desire for food. The point was simply to sit together at the kitchen table and array ourselves like a family again. My mother would gently set herself down in her customary chair near the stove. I sat across from her, my father and sister to my left and right, and crammed in the center was all the food I had made—a spicy codfish stew, say, or a casserole of gingery beef, dishes that in my youth she had prepared for us a hundred times.
It had been ten years since we’d all lived together in the house, which at fifteen I had left to attend boarding school in New Hampshire. My mother would sometimes point this out, by speaking of our present time as being “just like before Exeter,” which surprised me, given how proud she always was that I was a graduate of the school.
My going to such a place was part of my mother’s not so secret plan to change my character, which she worried was becoming too much like hers. I was clever and able enough, but without outside pressure I was readily given to sloth and vanity. The famous school—which none of us knew the first thing about—would prove my mettle. She was right, of course, and while I was there I would falter more than a few times, academically and otherwise. But I never thought that my leaving home then would ever be a problem for her, a private quarrel she would have even as her life waned.
Now her house was full again. My sister had just resigned from her job in New York City, and my father, who typically saw his psychiatric patients until eight or nine in the evening, was appearing in the driveway at four-thirty. I had been living at home for nearly a year and was in the final push of work on what would prove a dismal failure of a novel. When I wasn’t struggling over my prose, I kept occupied with the things she usually did—the daily errands, the grocery shopping, the vacuuming and the cleaning, and, of course, all the cooking.
When I was six or seven years old, I used to watch my mother as she prepared our favorite meals. It was one of my daily pleasures. She shooed me away in the beginning, telling me that the kitchen wasn’t my place, and adding, in her half-proud, half-deprecating way, that her kind of work would only serve to weaken me. “Go out and play with your friends,” she’d snap in Korean, “or better yet, do your reading and homework.” She knew that I had already done both, and that as the evening approached there was no place to go save her small and tidy kitchen, from which the clatter of her mixing bowls and pans would ring through the house.
I would enter the kitchen quietly and stand beside her, my chin lodging upon the point of her hip. Peering through the crook of her arm, I beheld the movements of her hands. For kalbi, she would take up a butchered short rib in her narrow hand, the flinty bone shaped like a section of an airplane wing and deeply embedded in gristle and flesh, and with the point of her knife cut so that the bone fell away, though not completely, leaving it connected to the meat by the barest opaque layer of tendon. Then she methodically butterflied the flesh, cutting and unfolding, repeating the action until the meat lay out on her board, glistening and ready for seasoning. She scored it diagonally, then sifted sugar into the crevices with her pinched fingers, gently rubbing in the crystals. The sugar would tenderize as well as sweeten the meat. She did this with each rib, and then set them all aside in a large shallow bowl. She minced a half-dozen cloves of garlic, a stub of gingerroot, sliced up a few scallions, and spread it all over the meat. She wiped her hands and took out a bottle of sesame oil, and, after pausing for a moment, streamed the dark oil in two swift circles around the bowl. After adding a few splashes of soy sauce, she thrust her hands in and kneaded the flesh, careful not to dislodge the bones. I asked her why it mattered that they remain connected. “The meat needs the bone nearby,” she said, “to borrow its richness.” She wiped her hands clean of the marinade, except for her little finger, which she would flick with her tongue from time to time, because she knew that the flavor of a good dish developed not at once but in stages.
Whenever I cook, I find myself working just as she would, readying the ingredients—a mash of garlic, a julienne of red peppers, fantails of shrimp—and piling them in little mounds about the cutting surface. My mother never left me any recipes, but this is how I learned to make her food, each dish coming not from a list or a card but from the aromatic spread of a board.
I’ve always thought it was particularly cruel that the cancer was in her stomach, and that for a long time at the end she couldn’t eat. The last meal I made for her was on New Year’s Eve, 1990. My sister suggested that instead of a rib roast or a bird, or the usual overflow of Korean food, we make all sorts of finger dishes that our mother might fancy and pick at.
This made us all feel good, especially me, for I couldn’t remember the last time she had felt any hunger or had eaten something I cooked. We began to eat. My mother picked up a piece of salmon toast and took a tiny corner in her mouth. She rolled it around for a moment and then pushed it out with the tip of her tongue, letting it fall back onto her plate. She swallowed hard, as if to quell a gag, then glanced up to see if we had noticed. Of course we all had. She attempted a bean cake, some cheese, and then a slice of fruit, but nothing was any use.
She nodded at me anyway, and said, “Oh, it’s very good.” But I was already feeling lost and I put down my plate abruptly, nearly shattering it on the thick glass. There was an ugly pause before my father asked me in a weary, gentle voice if anything was wrong, and I answered that it was nothing, it was the last night of a long year, and we were together, and I was simply relieved. At midnight, I poured out glasses of champagne, even one for my mother, who took a deep sip. Her manner grew playful and light, and I helped her shuffle to her mattress, and she lay down in the place where in a brief week she was dead.
My mother could whip up most anything, but during our first years of living in this country we ate only Korean foods. At my haranguelike behest, my mother set herself to learning how to cook exotic American dishes. Luckily, a kind neighbor, Mrs. Churchill, a tall, florid young woman with flaxen hair, taught my mother her most trusted recipes. Mrs. Churchill’s two young sons, palish, weepy boys with identical crewcuts, always accompanied her, and though I liked them well enough, I would slip away from them after a few minutes, for I knew that the real action would be in the kitchen, where their mother was playing guide. Mrs. Churchill hailed from the state of Maine, where the finest Swedish meatballs and tuna casserole and angel-food cake in America are made. She readily demonstrated certain techniques—how to layer wet sheets of pasta for a lasagna or whisk up a simple roux, for example. She often brought gift shoeboxes containing curious ingredients like dried oregano, instant yeast, and cream-of-mushroom soup. The two women, though at ease and jolly with each other, had difficulty communicating, and this was made worse by the often confusing terminology of Western cuisine (“corned beef,” “devilled eggs”). Although I was just learning the language myself, I’d gladly play the interlocutor, jumping back and forth between their places at the counter, dipping my fingers into whatever sauce lay about.
I was an insistent child, and, being my mother’s firstborn, much too prized. My mother could say no to me, and did often enough, but anyone who knew us—particularly my father and sister—could tell how much the denying pained her. And if I was overconscious of her indulgence even then, and suffered the rushing pangs of guilt that she could inflict upon me with the slightest wounded turn of her lip, I was too happily obtuse and venal to let her cease. She reminded me daily that I was her sole son, her reason for living, and that if she were to lose me, in either body or spirit, she wished that God would mercifully smite her, strike her down like a weak branch.
In the traditional fashion, she was the house accountant, the maid, the launderer, the disciplinarian, the driver, the secretary, and, of course, the cook. She was also my first basketball coach. In South Korea, where girls’ high-school basketball is a popular spectator sport, she had been a star, the point guard for the national high-school team that once won the all-Asia championships. I learned this one Saturday during the summer, when I asked my father if he would go down to the school yard and shoot some baskets with me. I had just finished the fifth grade, and wanted desperately to make the middle-school team the coming fall. He called for my mother and sister to come along. When we arrived, my sister immediately ran off to the swings, and I recall being annoyed that my mother wasn’t following her. I dribbled clumsily around the key, on the verge of losing control of the ball, and flung a flat shot that caromed wildly off the rim. The ball bounced to my father, who took a few not so graceful dribbles and made an easy layup. He dribbled out and then drove to the hoop for a layup on the other side. He rebounded his shot and passed the ball to my mother, who had been watching us from the foul line. She turned from the basket and began heading the other way.
After a few steps she turned around, and from where the professional three-point line must be now, she effortlessly flipped the ball up in a two-handed set shot, its flight truer and higher than I’d witnessed from any boy or man. The ball arced cleanly into the hoop, stiffly popping the chain-link net. All afternoon, she rained in shot after shot, as my father and I scrambled after her.
When we got home from the playground, my mother showed me the photograph album of her team’s championship run. For years, I kept it in my room, on the same shelf that housed the scrapbooks I made of basketball stars, with magazine clippings of slick players like Bubbles Hawkins and Pistol Pete and George (the Iceman) Gervin.
It puzzled me how much she considered her own history to be immaterial, and if she never patently diminished herself, she was able to finesse a kind of self-removal by speaking of my father whenever she could. She zealously recounted his excellence as a student in medical school and reminded me, each night before I started my homework, of how hard he drove himself in his work to make a life for us. She said that because of his Asian face and imperfect English, he was “working two times the American doctors.” I knew that she was building him up, buttressing him with both genuine admiration and her own brand of anxious braggadocio, and that her overarching concern was that I might fail to see him as she wished me to—in the most dawning light, his pose steadfast and solitary.
In the year before I left for Exeter, I became weary of her oft-repeated accounts of my father’s success. I was a teen-ager, and so ever inclined to be dismissive and bitter toward anything that had to do with family and home. Often enough, my mother was the object of my derision. Suddenly, her life seemed so small to me. She was there, and sometimes, I thought, always there, as if she were confined to the four walls of our house. I would even complain about her cooking. Mostly, though, I was getting more and more impatient with the difficulty she encountered in doing everyday things. I was afraid for her. One day, we got into a terrible argument when she asked me to call the bank, to question a discrepancy she had discovered in the monthly statement. I asked her why she couldn’t call herself. I was stupid and brutal, and I knew exactly how to wound her.
“Whom do I talk to?” she said. She would mostly speak to me in Korean, and I would answer in English.
“Don’t speak to me like that!” she cried.
“It’s just that you should be able to do it yourself,” I said.
“Well, maybe then you should consider it practice,” I answered lightly, using the Korean word to make sure she understood.
Her face blanched, and her neck suddenly became rigid, as if I were throttling her. She nearly struck me right then, but instead she bit her lip and ran upstairs. I followed her, pleading for forgiveness at her door. But it was the one time in our life that I couldn’t convince her, melt her resolve with the blandishments of a spoiled son.
When my mother was feeling strong enough, or was in particularly good spirits, she would roll her machine into the kitchen and sit at the table and watch me work. She wore pajamas day and night, mostly old pairs of mine.
“No way.” She sighed, as deeply as her weary lungs would allow.
We often talked like this, our tone decidedly matter-of-fact, chin up, just this side of being able to bear it. Once, while inspecting a potato-fritter batter I was making, she asked me if she had ever done anything that I wished she hadn’t done. I thought for a moment, and told her no. In the next breath, she wondered aloud if it was right of her to have let me go to Exeter, to live away from the house while I was so young. She tested the batter’s thickness with her finger and called for more flour. Then she asked if, given a choice, I would go to Exeter again.
She believed back then that I had found her more and more ignorant each time I came home. She said she never blamed me, for this was the way she knew it would be with my wonderful new education. Nothing I could say seemed to quell the notion. But I knew that the problem wasn’t simply the education; the first time I saw her again after starting school, barely six weeks later, when she and my father visited me on Parents Day, she had already grown nervous and distant. After the usual campus events, we had gone to the motel where they were staying in a nearby town and sat on the beds in our room. She seemed to sneak looks at me, as though I might discover a horrible new truth if our eyes should meet.
My own secret feeling was that I had missed my parents greatly, my mother especially, and much more than I had anticipated. I couldn’t tell them that these first weeks were a mere blur to me, that I felt completely overwhelmed by all the studies and my much brighter friends and the thousand irritating details of living alone, and that I had really learned nothing, save perhaps how to put on a necktie while sprinting to class. I felt as if I had plunged too deep into the world, which, to my great horror, was much larger than I had ever imagined.
I welcomed the lull of the motel room. My father and I had nearly dozed off when my mother jumped up excitedly, murmured how stupid she was, and hurried to the closet by the door. She pulled out our old metal cooler and dragged it between the beds. She lifted the top and began unpacking plastic containers, and I thought she would never stop. One after the other they came out, each with a dish that travelled well—a salted stewed meat, rolls of Korean-style sushi. I opened a container of radish kimchi and suddenly the room bloomed with its odor, and I revelled in the very peculiar sensation (which perhaps only true kimchi lovers know) of simultaneously drooling and gagging as I breathed it all in. For the next few minutes, they watched me eat. I’m not certain that I was even hungry. But after weeks of pork parmigiana and chicken patties and wax beans, I suddenly realized that I had lost all the savor in my life. And it seemed I couldn’t get enough of it back. I ate and I ate, so much and so fast that I actually went to the bathroom and vomited. I came out dizzy and sated with the phantom warmth of my binge.
And beneath the face of her worry, I thought, my mother was smiling.
From that day, my mother prepared a certain meal to welcome me home. It was always the same. Even as I rode the school’s shuttle bus from Exeter to Logan airport, I could already see the exact arrangement of my mother’s table.
I knew that we would eat in the kitchen, the table brimming with plates. There was the kalbi, of course, broiled or grilled depending on the season. Leaf lettuce, to wrap the meat with. Bowls of garlicky clam broth with miso and tofu and fresh spinach. Shavings of cod dusted in flour and then dipped in egg wash and fried. Glass noodles with onions and shiitake. Scallion-and-hot-pepper pancakes. Chilled steamed shrimp. Seasoned salads of bean sprouts, spinach, and white radish. Crispy squares of seaweed. Steamed rice with barley and red beans. Homemade kimchi. It was all there—the old flavors I knew, the beautiful salt, the sweet, the excellent taste.
After the meal, my father and I talked about school, but of course I could never say enough for it to make any sense. My father would often recall his high-school principal, who had gone to England to study the methods and traditions of the public schools, and regaled students with stories of the great Eton man. My mother sat with us, paring fruit, not saying a word but taking everything in. When it was time to go to bed, my father said good night first. I usually watched television until the early morning. My mother would sit with me for an hour or two, perhaps until she was accustomed to me again, and only then would she kiss me and head upstairs to sleep.
During the following days, it was always the cooking that started our conversations. She’d hold an inquest over the cold leftovers we ate at lunch, discussing each dish in terms of its balance of flavors or what might have been prepared differently. But mostly I begged her to leave the dishes alone. I wish I had paid more attention. After her death, when my father and I were the only ones left in the house, drifting through the rooms like ghosts, I sometimes tried to make that meal for him. Though it was too much for two, I made each dish anyway, taking as much care as I could. But nothing turned out quite right—not the color, not the smell. At the table, neither of us said much of anything. And we had to eat the food for days.
“So why did you?” I said.
I let her words pass. For the first time in her life, she was letting herself speak her full mind, so what else could I do?
I suggested that maybe I would like her even more.
Sometimes I still think about what she said, about having made a mistake. I would have left home for college, that was never in doubt, but those years I was away at boarding school grew more precious to her as her illness progressed. After many months of exhaustion and pain and the haze of the drugs, I thought that her mind was beginning to fade, for more and more it seemed that she was seeing me again as her fifteen-year-old boy, the one she had dropped off in New Hampshire on a cloudy September afternoon.
I remember the first person I met, another new student, named Zack, who walked to the welcome picnic with me. I had planned to eat with my parents—my mother had brought a coolerful of food even that first day—but I learned of the cookout and told her that I should probably go. I wanted to go, of course. I was excited, and no doubt fearful and nervous, and I must have thought I was only thinking ahead. She agreed wholeheartedly, saying I certainly should. I walked them to the car, and perhaps I hugged them, before saying goodbye. One day, after she died, my father told me what happened on the long drive home to Syracuse.
He was driving the car, looking straight ahead. Traffic was light on the Massachusetts Turnpike, and the sky was nearly dark. They had driven for more than two hours and had not yet spoken a word. He then heard a strange sound from her, a kind of muffled chewing noise, as if something inside her were grinding its way out.
“So, what’s the matter?” he said, trying to keep an edge to his voice.
She looked at him with her ashen face and she burst into tears. He began to cry himself: and pulled the car over onto the narrow shoulder of the turnpike, where they stayed for the next half hour or so, the blank-faced cars droning by them in the cold, onrushing night. | 2019-04-25T10:00:17Z | https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1995/10/16/coming-home-again |

Beatlemania! With The Beatles contains 8 originals + 6 covers. The transfer on DBM-033A is primarily clean. The bass on �All My Loving� is a bit flat. The overall gain seemed weak to me on the mono transfer. �Till There Was You� begs for more separation. The high and low end on �Please Mr. Postman� are not equally balanced with the vocals sounding bright. There is a minute skip/break on �Hold Me Tight� at the 41 second mark. The vocals are a bit bright again on �You Really Got A Hold On Me�. The guitar is more prominent and the vocals are more in your face on the mono as compared with the stereo transfer on �Money (That�s What I Want)�. Total time is 33:25 on the mono as compared with 33:58 on the stereo mix.
The above listed flaws do not detract from the inherent appreciation of the music. I find that the Beatles� song writing here was weaker and obviously not fully developed as they employed simpler basic chord structures for most of the tracks. Their sheer energy, however, is unmistakable and their unheralded ability to harmonize speaks volumes for this release. | 2019-04-18T23:19:33Z | https://www.jagamart.com/drebbebewibe.html |

My Experience of First Time Acne Treatment Dealing with acne is never easy, though a number of new surgeries and cosmetic procedures can help speed up the process for those willing to deal with the expenses and possible pain. One such solution is Pixel, a laser treatment that is meant to resurface skin cells as a means to treat acne scarring, sun damage, fine lines, and other skin issues. The lasers create tiny wounds on the face which then stimulate collagen production to smooth out and tighten the skin. The treatment costs about $500 on average, and is often advertised to come with minimal discomfort and recovery time "I could feel small pin pricks as the laser lit up across my face During the procedure. I began to get a little agitated as smoke started to rise and I could literally smell my skin burning. The procedure was more painful than expected However, the doctor assured me the feeling was normal. Once the procedure was over, the pain still continued as i made my way home. 15 minutes after the procedure my face turned a deep purple, and began to heat up, By the time I got home I was in total agony and my face was burning, it felt like I was on fire. My skin started to cool down after 24 hours. The uncomfortable burning feeling continued for 24 hours before cooling down. By the fourth day, my skin started to heal and scab as it gradually peeled off. My experience seems to be rare, as dermatologists say it should be a relatively pain-free process. This treatment has cleared up 70% of my scarring and pigmentation issues after just one session. Those results are enough to outweigh the pain i felt, especially if it means avoiding the "major insecurities. Well I still recommend the treatment despite the pain. I couldn't recommend it enough I can't wait to do it again, the pain was worth it.

This week will be our busiest ever. As I write there is still time for a few last minute panics but short of a herd of deer eating your sprouts or a Grinch springing a nighttime raid on the barn, those boxes should be on your doorsteps. You might call me a Grinch, (and my children often do) but the sudden change in the nations' diet at Christmas is a challenge for those selling fresh produce.
There was the year when we ran out of sprouts but were promised a top up of "perfect" sprouts from a grower in Herefordshire. They arrived, grey with aphids, the day before the boxes were to be packed. Terrified of the implications of a sprout free Christmas, 30 people worked through the night scrubbing off aphids with nailbrushes. We always seem to run out of something and spend the last few days scouring the country in search of organic Christmas puddings, clotted cream, nuts or satsumas. We keep a watchful eye on the weather because frost can catch us out by making it impossible to pick the green veggies. Really hard weather or persistent rain can make it impossible to harvest the roots. On the ideal Christmas Eve we are looking at an empty cold room with the minimum of messages from irate customers on the answer phone.
The weather has been kind and things are looking pretty good so far this year. It looks as if all my friends and relatives will be getting those Booja Booja chocolates; just as well they taste so good. I am sure they will smell better in a stocking than Brussels sprouts.
Grinching aside, once the shopping is out of the way, I love Christmas and particularly that state of suspended, relaxed goodwill which seems to arrive sometime between Christmas and New Year when the whole nation (almost) has had a few synchronous days off. May your turkey or nut roast be perfect, and may suspended goodwill arrive without requiring too much alcohol. Happy Christmas from us all at Riverford. | 2019-04-20T12:18:49Z | https://www.riverford.co.uk/happy-christmas |

Venezuela won the opening match at the FIFA U-20 World Cup Korea Republic 2017 with a 2-0 victory over Germany at the Daejeon World Cup Stadium in Group B.
After a goalless first half where Venezuela's attack - featuring the exciting quartet of Adalberto Penaranda, Yeferson Soteldo, Sergio Cordova and Ronaldo Pena - looked particularly dangerous, Vinotinto found the breakthrough quickly after the interval. Two quick-fire goals by Pena and Cordova proved too much for the Germans.
Pena scored the first goal of the tournament with an industrious effort in which he won the ball in the attacking third before rounding Dominik Reimann and finishing with an open net at his mercy. Just three minutes later it was Cordova's turn, as he rounded off a move instigated by Penaranda. | 2019-04-25T01:50:48Z | https://www.fifa.com/u20worldcup/matches/round=275960/match=300367036/match-report.html |

These capabilities enable rapid testing and refinement of different combinations of "seed" concepts to obtain better desired results.
According to DeepLearning4J's Word2Vec tutorial, "Given enough data, usage and contexts, Word2vec can make highly accurate guesses about a word’s meaning based on past appearances. Those guesses can be used to establish a word’s association with other words (e.g., 'man' is to 'boy' what 'woman' is to 'girl'), or cluster documents and classify them by topic. Those clusters can form the basis of search, sentiment analysis and recommendations in such diverse fields as scientific research, legal discovery, e-commerce and customer relationship management."
Word2vec is a two layer artificial neural network used to process text to learn relationships between words within a text corpus. Word2vec takes as its input a large corpus of text and produces a high-dimensional space (typically of several hundred dimensions), with each unique word in the corpus being assigned a corresponding vector in the space. This "word embedding" approach is able to capture multiple different degrees of similarity between words. To create the model of relationships between the words, a particular grouping of text or documents is fed to the word2vec process, which is called the training corpus.
This use case shows how the KBpedia knowledge structure can be used to automatically create highly accurate domain-specific training corpuses that can be used by word2vec to generate word relationship models, often with superior performance and results to generalized word2vec models. The basic approach in this use case is not only applicable to word2vec, but to any method that uses corpuses of text for training. For example, in another use case, we will show how this can be done with another algorithm called ESA (Explicit Semantic Analysis).
It is said about word2vec that "given enough data, usage and contexts, word2vec can make highly accurate guesses about a word’s meaning based on past appearances." What this use case shows is how the context of the training corpus may greatly impact the results. This use case also shows how KBpedia may be leveraged to quickly create very responsive domain-specific corpuses for training the model.
A training corpus is really just a set of text used to train unsupervised machine learning algorithms. Any kind of text can be used by word2vec. The only thing it does is to learn the relationships between the words that exist in the text. However, not all training corpuses are equal. Training corpuses are often dirty, biaised and ambiguous. Depending on the task at hand, it may be exactly what is required, but more often than not, such errors need to be fixed. Cognonto has the advantage of starting with clean text.
When we want to create a new training corpus, the first step is to find a source of text that could work to create that corpus. The second step is to select the text we want to add to it. The third step is to pre-process that corpus of text to perform different operations on the text, such as: removing HTML elements; removing punctuation; normalizing text; detecting named entities; etc. The final step is to train word2vec to generate the model.
Word2vec is somewhat dumb. It only learns what exists in the training corpus. It does not do anything other than "read" the text and then analyze the relationships between the words (which are really just groups of characters separated by spaces). The word2vec process is highly subject to the Garbage In, Garbage Out principle, which means that if the training set is dirty, biaised and ambiguous, then the learned relationship will end-up being of little or no value.
A domain-specific training corpus is a specialized training corpus where its text is related to a specific domain. Examples of domains are music, mathematics, cars, healthcare, etc. In contrast, a general training corpus is a corpus of text that may contain text that discusses totally different domains. By creating a corpus of text that covers a specific domain of interest, we limit the usage of words (that is, their co-occurrences) to texts that are meaningful to that domain.
As we will see in this use case, a domain-specific training corpus can be quite useful, and much more powerful, than general ones, if the task at hand is in relation to a specific domain of expertise. In the past, the major problem with domain-specific training corpuses was that they were costly to create. These costs arose because it is necessary to find a source of data to use, and then to select the specific documents to include in the training corpus. This can work if we want a corpus with 100 or 200 documents, but what if you want a training corpus of 100,000 or 200,000 documents? Then it becomes a problem.
To show how this process works, let's create a domain-specific training corpus using KBpedia about, say, musicians. We will compare this domain-specific corpus to the general word2vec model created by Google based on news sources that has about 100 billion words. The Google model contains 300-dimensional vectors for 3 million words and phrases. We will use the Google News model as the general model to compare the results/performance to our domain-specific musicians model.
The first step is to define the scope of the domain we want to create. For this use case example, we want a domain that is somewhat constrained to create a training corpus that is not too large for demo purposes. The domain we have chosen is musicians. This domain is related to people and bands that play music. It is also related to musical genres, instruments, music industry, etc.
To create this domain, we beginwith a single KBpedia reference concept: Musician. If we want to broaden the scope of the domain, we could have included other concepts such as: Music, Musical Group, Musical Instrument, etc.
Once we have determined the scope of the domain, the next step is to query the KBpedia knowledge base to aggregate all of the text that will belong to that training corpus. The end result of this operation is to create a training corpus with text that is only related to the scope of the domain we defined.
What this code does is to query the KBpedia knowledge base to get all the named entities that are linked to it, for the scope of the domain we defined. Then the text related to each entity is appended to a text file where each line is the text of a single entity.
Given the scope of the current use case, the musicians training corpus is composed of 47,263 documents. With a simple function, we are able to aggregate 47,263 text documents highly related to a conceptual domain we defined on the fly. All of the hard work has been delegated to the knowledge base and its conceptual structure. (In fact, this simple function leverages 8 years of hard work).
The next step is a common one related to any NLP pipeline. Before learning from the training corpus, we should clean and normalize the text of its raw form.
We remove all of the characters that may cause issues to the tokenizer used by the word2vec implementation. We also remove unnecessary words and other words that appear too often or that add nothing to the model we want to generate (like the listing of days and months). We also drop all numbers. By the way, such cleaning steps are common to most such models, and can be used repeatedly across projects.
What is important to notice here is the number of parameters that can be defined to train word2vec on a corpus. In fact, word2vec can be sensitive to parametrization. In a standard use case, since creation of the domain-specific training corpus is so easy, most of the total time getting great results is spent tuning these parameters (subjects of other use cases).
Now that we have a domain-specific model related to musicians and a general model related to news processed by Google, let's start playing with both to see how they perform on different tasks. In the following examples, we will always compare the domain-specific training corpus with the general one.
A characteristic of words is that their surface form can be ambiguous; they can have multiple meanings. An ambiguous word can co-occur with multiple other words that may not have any shared meaning. But all of this depends on the context. If we are in a general context, then this situation will happen more often than we think and will impact the similarity score of these ambiguous terms. However, as we will see, this phenomenum is greatly diminished when we use domain-specific models.
What we want to check is the relationship between 3 different music instruments: piano, organ and violin. We want to check the relationship between each of them.
As we can see, both tuples have a high likelihood of co-occurrence. This suggests that these terms of each tuple are probably highly related. In this case, it is probably because violins are often played along with a piano. And, it is probable that an organ looks like a piano (at least it has a keyboard).
The surprising fact here is the apparent dissimilarity between piano and organ compared with the results we got with the musicians domain-specific model. If we think a bit about this use case, we will probably conclude that these results makes sense. In fact, organ is an ambiguous word in a general context. An organ can be a musical instrument, but it can also be a part of an anatomy. This means that the word organ will co-occur with piano, but also to all other kinds of words related to human and animal biology. This is why they are less similar in the general model than in the domain one, because it is an ambiguous word in a general context.
Now let's see another similarity example between two other words album and track where track is an ambiguous word depending on the context.
As expected, because track is ambiguous, there is a big difference in terms of co-occurence probabilities depending on the context (domain-specific or general).
However, are domain-specific and general differences always the case? Let's take a look at two words that are domain specific and unambiguous: pianist and violinist.
In this case, the similarity score between the two terms is almost the same. In both contexts (generals and domain specific), their co-occurrence is similar.
Now let's look at the similarity between two distinct words in two new and distinct contexts. Let's take a look at a few words and see what other words occur most often with them.
One observation we can make is that the terms from the musicians model are more general than the ones from the general model.
As we know, track is ambiguous. The difference between these two sets of nearest related words is striking. There is a clear conceptual correlation in the musicians' domain-specific model. But in the general model, it is really going in all directions.
This one is quite interesting too. Both groups of words makes sense, but only in their respective contexts. With the musicians' model, year is mostly related to awards (like the Grammy Awards 2016), categories like "song of the year", etc.
In the context of the general model, year is really related to time concepts: months, seasons, etc.
Finally we will play with manipulating the co-occurrences vectors by manipulating them. A really popular word2vec equation is king - man + women = queen. What is happening under the hood with this equation is that we are adding and substracting the co-occurence "vectors" for each of these words, and we check the nearest word of the resulting co-occurence vector.
Now, let's take a look at a few of these equations.
Pianist + Renowned = ?
These kinds of operations are also interesting. If we add the two co-occurrence vectors for pianist and renowned then we get that a teacher, an educator, a composer or a virtuoso is a renowned pianist.
For unambiguous surface forms like pianist, then the two models score quite well. The difference between the two examples comes from the way the general training corpus has been created (pre-processed) compared to the musicians corpus.
Metal + Death = ?
This example uses two quite general words with no apparent relationship between them. The results with the musicians' model are all the highly similar genre of music like trash metal, deathcore metal, etc.
However with the general model, it is a mix of multiple unrelated concepts.
Metal - Death + Smooth = ?
Let's play some more with these equations. What if we want some kind of smooth metal?
This one is also quite interesting. We substracted the death co-occurrence vector to the metal one, and then we added the smooth vector. What we end-up with is a bunch of music genres that are much smoother than death metal.
In the case of the general model, we end-up with "smooth metal". The removal of the death vector has no effect on the results, probably since these are three ambiguous and really general terms.
To enable the testing and refinement of different combinations of "seed" concepts to produce training corpuses with the desired set of similarity results.
As we saw, creating domain-specific training corpuses to use with word2vec can have a dramatic impact on the results and how results can be much more meaningful within the scope of that domain. Another advantage of a domain-specific training corpus is it creates create much smaller models. Smaller models are faster to generate, faster to download/upload, faster to query, and consume less memory.
Of the concepts in KBpedia, roughly 47,000 of them correspond to types (or classes) of various sorts. These pre-determined slices are available across all needs and domains to generate such domain-specific corpuses. Further, KBpedia is designed for rapid incorporation of your own domain information to add further to this discriminatory power. | 2019-04-21T22:56:51Z | http://kbpedia.org/use-cases/document-specific-word2vec-training-corpuses/ |

DALLAS — The morning after Southwest announced it would be sharing $620 million in profits with it’s employees, Delta Airlines has announced its employees will receive a portion of $1.5 billion in profits the Atlanta-based air carrier brought in last year.
Individual payouts for Delta employees will equal more than 21 percent of the employee’s’ 2015 earnings. For Delta’s 976 employees in North Texas, the payout totals more than $7.4 million. If all of the North Texas employees receive the same amount in profit sharing from Delta, it would mean each employee will receive $7,621.
Southwest announced Thursday it’s eligible employees will receive 15.6 percent of their annual salaries (equivalent to eight weeks’ pay) in its profit sharing. It was the third consecutive year the Dallas-based airline contributed a record dollar amount in profit sharing.
However, the dollar amount of Delta’s 2015 profit share is more than the last three years of Southwest’s profit sharing combined.
Delta is honoring employees Friday for the record-breaking performance with celebrations, including a 50-foot tall greeting card at the Delta General Offices that included the name of all 80,000 Delta employees.
For comparison, Southwest employs more than 49,000 people. | 2019-04-22T23:02:40Z | http://galleytalk.me/2016/02/delta-announces-massive-1-5-billion-profit-share/ |
Graduated from The High School of Art and Design, NYC, where I majored in advertising and illustration. Attended fine art classes at Fordham University, College at Lincoln Center, and The Art Student’s League in Manhattan. While living in NYC, I displayed my art in some non-traditional venues such as the lobby of The Fine Arts Theater on E 58th Street, Manhattan, and The Dime Savings bank. For a number of years I created pet portraits from photos using a technique that I developed over time, scanning the photo into my computer and rendering it with fine art tools in my graphics program. I then printed them out on my wide-format printer, matted and framed them. I received quite a few commissions from ‘word of mouth’ and still have copies of some of the pet portraits I especially liked.
I loved to travel in my younger days, and find painting scenes of natural beauty – either made-up or real – the next best thing. | 2019-04-19T16:38:32Z | http://www.catskillart.com/maureen-osullivan/ |

The R36A offers faster throughput than the original R36, but has different compatibility. It ONLY supports Alfa AWUS036NH, AWUS036NEH, Tube-U(N) and UBDo-nt8. It does not support AWUS036H or AWUS036NHR.
The R36A router will connect to a Wi-Fi signal you choose via the AWUS036NH/NEH or Tube-N/UBDo-nt8, and then broadcast it as a new local Wi-Fi signal so that all of your devices can use it. It is just like having an AWUS036NH device connected to your cell phone, laptop, tablet, and desktop all at the same time!

A federal judge in California has blocked the Trump administrations efforts to end DACA (the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program). Last year, California and other states filed a request to stop DACA from being rescinded. While that case has not yet been resolved, a San Francisco U.S. District Judge, William Alsup, has issued a ruling that halts the DACA program from ending while the legal challenge moves forward.
In the mean time, there has been significant movement toward reaching an agreement to address the issue of what to do with Dreamers (Dreamers is the term used to refer to recipients of DACA). In an earlier meeting, Trump met on-camera with a bipartisan group of congressional leaders to discuss the need for a DACA solution and urged them to create a clean bill, offering that he would sign whatever they brought him. However, the more recent alleged use of vulgar/derogatory words in a DACA bill review meeting and a recent post on twitter, which included a list of demands for a DACA deal that includes funding for a border wall, has cast uncertainty around what a DACA solution would look like.
In a previous post, I indicated that some members of Congress wanted to tie a solution for Dreamers to the vote on a government funding agreement that would avoid a government shutdown. Ultimately, that was pushed down the road with the approval of a second temporary fix, called a Continuing Resolution or CR, which avoided a government shutdown until January 19. That government shutdown deadline is again looming and the flurry of activity around creating a DACA solution may again be tied to the budget impasse. If DACA solution supporters decide to withhold votes for a government funding solution (or another CR) that doesn't include a DACA fix, it could result in a government shutdown.

This is a Complaint / Review about Nate Hill aka Nathaniel Elliott Hill.
In May 2018 Nate Hill began a campaign to get my cousin removed from a property she shared with a member at Upward Christian Fellowship Flat Rock NC & where Nate is Jr pastor. He stated the church disapproved of people living together out of wedlock & church people were talking about it. My cousin couldn't leave as she would become homeless & had lived there for over a year & had rights as a tenant. Nate stated the property belonged to him & several unnamed members of UCF. He stated the property had been sold and she would have to leave as the new owners were moving in in 3 days. Nate & member then threw her stuff out on the front lawn & changed the door locks so she couldn't get in. Shortly before this, member gave me the number of someone who had an RV for sale. It was listed on ebay & a classified website. I bought the RV so my cousin wouldn't have to sleep in the woods or her tiny subcompact car which member wrecked while driving drunk totaling the vehicle. A vehicle he had no permission to drive. The RV owner said it was in perfect condition, all maintenance was up to date. Shortly after the sale it had to be sent back to the factory for repairs/maintenance/engine work, all of which RV owner lied about. I had to buy my cousin a car. The whole thing cost me over $30k. When I threatened said church member with a lawsuit & court he came forth and told me everything. He told me that he & Nate got kickbacks from the RV deal & that it was really he that wanted my cousin out so his GF(the woman he was seeing behind my cousin's back) wouldn't find out nor his landlord which is Prodigy Inc. not Nate Hill. His landlord didn't allow subletting which my cousin knew nothing of. Member said he was blackmailing Nate because Mr. Hill was cheating on his wife with a man, stealing from the church, stole from his previous church & secretly trying to get church people on his side so he could overthrow the Sr pastor & take his job. Mr. Hill told me personally when I spoke with him that he would contact church members & try to find my cousin a place to live so she wouldn't become homeless. He didn't follow through & later said he wasn't concerned if her son had to sleep on the ground. In fact, he said, "whatever happens is the will of God" "it's better to be homeless & walk in the path of righteousness." He also conveyed that it wasn't that unsafe for a woman to sleep in the woods. I told him I thought he was a moral fraud, liar & hypocrite & that I knew about the blackmail, cheating, church theft. He responded by threatening me & letting me know they(UCF) had the police, sheriff's dept & local homeland security in their back pocket. He said they made a lot of donations to law enforcement. I assume he meant legal, political contributions as he didn't elaborate. I couldn't say church member's name, my attorney advised against it because I'm currently suing him. I will say this person is a convicted felon for meth distribution(cook), still uses drugs(he admitted to me he does), keeps guns in his house which is a parole violation, with 2 DUI's who was abusive to my cousin during their relationship. This is the person Nate took up the cause of illegal eviction & lied for. Said church member is also in a leadership position at the church. These men are also supposed role models for young men & women in the church. Nate Hill Fletcher NC aka Nathaniel Elliot Hill-Asheville NC, Flat Rock NC (Upward Christian Fellowship Flat Rock NC) had no remorse for his actions & believed what he was doing was right. I've sent messages to the Sr pastor but he never contacted me back regarding what transpired.

A jihadist rebel group in Syria has called on its supporters to attack rival opposition factions that do not support its cause.
The call by the al-Qaeda-linked Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIS) follows days of rebel infighting that has left scores dead.
It came hours after another rebel group called on ISIS to observe a ceasefire.
The al-Nusra Front said the factional fighting benefited the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
Opposition activists say some 270 people have been killed in factional fighting since Friday. Clashes are continuing in Raqqa, a city under full rebel control and previously an ISIS stronghold.
BBC world affairs correspondent Mike Wooldridge says the damage being done to forces opposing President Assad was clearly recognised in an audio message from Nusra Front chief Abu Mohammed al-Julani, in which he called for a truce.
"The regime will gain new life when it was close to collapse," he said in an audio message posted on Twitter.
"(The fighting) risks costing us dearly on the ground if it continues."
He accused ISIS - also known as ISIL - of having a "flawed policy" that had played "a key role in fuelling the conflict".
The al-Nusra leader proposed an initiative to end the fighting that would include a ceasefire, a prisoner exchange and setting up an Islamic committee to mediate disputes.
However, a defiant ISIS audio message later urged its fighters to attack other rebel groups.
Spokesman Abu Mohammed al-Adnani - although making no reference to the al-Nusra initiative - called on the militants to "crush them (the rebels) totally and kill the conspiracy at birth".
He also threatened all members of the main opposition political grouping, the National Coalition.
"Everyone who belongs to this entity is a legitimate target for us, in all places, unless he publicly declares his rejection of that group and of fighting the mujahideen," he said.
ISIS, formed in April 2013, grew out of al-Qaeda's affiliate organisation in Iraq and has since become one of the main jihadist groups fighting in Syria. It has gained a reputation for brutal behaviour in the areas it controls.
The SNC is itself deeply divided and on Tuesday postponed a vote on whether or not to attend a peace conference in Geneva planned for 22 January.
Earlier on Tuesday, activists in Aleppo told the BBC that militants from ISIS had summarily executed at least 50 captives who included medics, local journalists and members of rival rebel groups.
The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights also said that at least 34 foreign jihadists had been killed by rival rebel groups in Jabal al-Zawiya, in north-western Idlib province.
None of the reported killings can be independently confirmed.
Since last Thursday, large-scale attacks by an alliance of rebel groups have been taking place across northern and north-eastern Syria on ISIS strongholds and strategic positions. Scores are said to have died, including civilians.
The alliance says the offensive is driven by public anger in ISIS-controlled territories over practices including strict interpretation of Islamic laws as well as the kidnapping of journalists and torture of prisoners. | 2019-04-24T16:18:54Z | https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-25647057 |

Beast Cardio and Abs. Again. Trainer Sagi was really changing it up. All part of getting shredded while maintaining mass. I had to confess, it was a serious struggle to get through this workout.
I haven’t really talked much about what was going on in my life at that time, and I won’t, as I don’t believe in excuses, but I want to stress two things, and they aren’t self-aggrandizing.
Between corporate work and issues surrounding that, managing relationships, prepping for holidays, trying to get enough sleep, fighting off illnesses that should never affect an immortal, as well as keeping up with my responsibilities as a Colonel in the war, I was exhausted.
When I say exhausted, I’m talking emotionally, mentally, spiritually, physically drained. Beaten down. Defeated. Pessimistic, close to depression. It wasn’t a good place, yet each and every day I have maintained the good habits I’ve worked so hard to form.
That was the key to it really. It’s easy to be on the top of the universe when the universe was easy. The real mark of character is overcoming adversity and achieving victories when life was hard. I was sincerely hopeful I would claim that victory in my life before I collapsed.
It’s those small moments of positive reinforcement that remind of why I did the things I did. Not just healthy lifestyle, but everything.
You go mate, we’re all rooting for yah. make sure you post some pictures at the end so we can all see the rocmorphosis.
There will definitely be pictures, before and after, same as always. I’m also going to do a detailed breakdown on my thoughts and opinions of the bodybeast program.
You are a true inspiration as you always have been, especially to me 🙂 Keep going as you are for sure unstoppable.
As I’m often reminded, “You can’t stop the Roc.” Great song. For the record, you are one of the most inspirational pretty ladies I’ve ever known. | 2019-04-24T01:14:04Z | https://rocwieler.com/2012/12/12/huge-beast-day-78/ |

Comedy has the unique ability to force us to confront the flaws of society in a palatable way, and hopefully, allow us to change. | 2019-04-23T22:07:19Z | https://festivalforcomedy.com/2017/12/13/director-bio-david-maddox/ |
