{"text": "Who is responsible for reporting Service Packaging in BC?\nAmendments to the BC Recycling Regulation announced in September 2020 designated Single-Use Products and Packaging-Like Products. As a result, there is a change in the obligated party required to report and pay fees for service packaging in BC. The obligated party for service packaging shifts from the “filler” who previously reported such packaging supplied to consumers at point of sale, to either the brand owner, first importer or franchisor of the packaging that is ultimately supplied to consumers in BC. If the service packaging carries a brand name it will remain the obligation of the brand owner.\nPlease Recycle BC's announcement to learn more about the change in responsible party for service packaging."}

{"text": "Genre - Old School Death Metal\nReview - Well, I am not a very big fan of polish death metal scene. I would prefer Florida,NY,Finnish and swedish scene anyday over the polish one. One of the reasons is because the polish scene itself doesnt have a characteristic sound of its own. But I have seen death metallers who are mad about a few polish bands (read Vader, Behemoth).\nYes, yes I am keeping this trend of giving you guys the lost,forgotten old classics of the genres. It may not be as aggressive as Azarath, It may not be as sinister or evil as Autopsy. But certainly it has a brutal vibe that is particularly prominent on the recording of the drums. The vocals are great too, quite similar sounding as early Master. Seriously the first band band that came to my mind on listening to them was Master and obviously Master worship cant be a bad thing in death metal, or can it? And oh yeah! They are much better than their much overrated counterparts Behemoth and Vader.\n-Get it here (sorry for RS links)\n- EyeHateDoG"}

{"text": "AAPL to $340?\nBoth technical analysis and fundamental analysis support a potential target of $340 for Apple stock.\nFirst the technicals; Apple stock has traced a head and shoulders pattern as the chart shows. In traditional technical analysis this is a well-known reversal pattern. An important part of this pattern is the neckline that joins the two shoulders and shown on the chart.\nThe pattern not only shows the reversal but also provides for an ultimate downside target. The downside target is projected at a distance below the neckline equal to the distance between the neckline and the top of the head. This pattern sets $340 as Apple’s target.\nNow the fundamental. You have probably heard analysts gush about how Apple is cheap on a P/E basis. This is a naive view. The fact is that nobody knows with certainty what normalized Apple earnings over the next five years will be. If Apple does not innovate, earnings will definitely drop.\nA less discussed but more important problem for Apple is its heavy dependence on subsidies from phone carriers. When a consumer buys an iPhone 5 from a carrier for $199 the carrier may be paying Apple over $600 and subsidizing the consumer.\nRecently there have been negative musings both from AT&T and Verizon about the high level of subsidies for iPhones. The subsidies on Google Android based phones and Microsoft Windows phones are lower.\nBack on October 17, 2012, when Apple stock was trading at $650, I wrote that the stock could easily drop by $200; here was the fundamental rationale:; it is about 4 and many astute investors still do not consider the stock cheap.\nNormalized earnings of Apple falling to $30 per share are not out of the question. At a P/E of 7 ex cash, it computes the stock value at $210. Add $137 in cash and the result is $347.!\nThe foregoing is a negative long-term outcome. For the time being according to our proprietary sentiment indicator, sentiment on Apple has reached the level of negativity that is interpreted as bullish.\nWe recommended Apple long at $131 and have now taken profits on 90% of the position. The plan is to hold on to the remaining 10% as a long-term core position in the portfolio and trade around it with short-term trades. On Friday, the stock dipped below the upper band of our buy zone for a short-term."}

{"text": "H.C. Westermann\nH.C. Westermann. Courtesy of Dumbarton Arts, LLC / Licensed by VAGA, New York, NY\nArtistic Marine\nBorn in 1922, Horace Clifford “H.C.” Westermann was raised in Los Angeles, California. He served as a Marine in both World War II and the Korean War. Westermann studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and supplemented his income by working as a woodworker and carpenter. His involvement with and love for the craft of woodworking led him to working full time as an artist.\nVersatile and Iconoclastic\nWestermann produced works in a variety of media, including paintings, woodcuts, drawings, and collage, but he is best known for his highly detailed and impeccably finished wood sculptures and constructions. During his life, Westermann never explained the meaning behind his works, but it is clear that he was heavily influenced by his wartime experience and by his personal feelings on the human condition. Much of his oeuvre can be interpreted as a critique of American military and consumer culture.\nProfoundly Influential\nWestermann’s output was a great influence on artists from the 1960s and 1970s, including the Chicago Imagists and California Funk artists William T. Wiley and Ken Price. Major retrospectives have been held at museums across the world, including the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art (Chicago), the Whitney Museum of American Art (New York), and the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden (Washington D.C.). Westermann died in Danbury, Connecticut in 1981 at the age of 58.Contact a Specialist View all Artists/Makers"}

{"text": "Government Security News reports that a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request filed by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) has produced results: the list of U.S. organizations that have applied to fly drones over America:\nThe new drone authorization list, said EFF, includes law enforcement agencies and universities across the country, and the first Indian tribal agency to apply. In all, EFF said the list includes more than 20 new entities over the FAA’s original list, bringing to 81 the total number of public entities that have applied for FAA drone authorizations through October 2012.\n…EFF?\nLocal governments of Arlington (AKA Dallas), Houston and Texas A&M (basically a little ways South of San Antonio) all want drones. Why am I not surprised. The 3 most militarized cities in Texas.\nI have friends in Houston and I can tell you that what the government wants and what the people want are two entirely different things. Dallas is like the LA of Texas, so they are in a world of their own compared to the rest of Texas and San Antonio is filled with Military bases and Mexicans, so that explains that.\nWhy isn’t TSA on this list?"}

{"text": "2010, P2 Overview and Week 1 Recap\nHello and welcome to Change Your Body Boot Camps,\nYes, I know this is a week late, but good things come to those who wait. Right? Right! J\nFirst off. Thank you for choosing us (your teammates and I) as your go to destination to get in your best shape. I’m very passionate about helping you achieve your fitness goal, providing all the necessary resources for you to be successful and creating the ultimate environment and experience to make Change Your Body Boot Camps your 3rd place besides home and work. (Thank you Starbucks for the label-wink).\nEach participant has been pre-screened before they can even apply to join. We have something special and we’d like to keep it that way.\n2nd, please welcome Meghan Cureton, Stephanie Gilman, Priya Vincent, Krissy Mainello, Cindy Hutter, Leslie Williams, Britta Mainello and Lisa DeLima to the CYBBC family.\nO.K. I’m going to combine 2 letters into one this week. The phase 2 overview and the week 1 recap. Feel free to skim the headers. Enjoy.\nThis week’s agenda:\n- Cardio Minutes\n- Phase 2 Overview\n- Week 1 Recap\n- FAQ, Schedule, Policies and Snow Policy\n- Weekly Themes\n- Important Dates\n- Guest Day\n- Nutrition Discussion\n- Measurements & Testing\n- Nutrition Tip\n- Billing\n- Endurance Athletes\n- Change Your Body Challenge (CYBC)\n- Changing Your Body\nCardio Minutes:\nGoals:\nRookies: males 125 min, females 190 minutes of weight bearing cardio\nReturning Boot Campers: males 175 min, females 250 minutes of weight bearing cardio\nPhase 2 Overview\nP2 is a 4 week phase followed by a recovery week and then a 3 week phase. We test at the beginning and end of each phase so you can objectively track your progress and since we added the testing to class because it was too difficult to make on weekends, I decided to combine P2 and P3 so we weren’t testing too frequently. The very awesome and exciting part of this decision is you’ll be experiencing alternating Periodization within the same workout over the course of phase 2 and phase 3. (uh, Mike, you lost me…)\nLet me explain.\nBox #1 and box #2 shows you what the schedule was supposed to be and box #3 shows you what it will be.\nBOX #1\nBOX #2\n- A,B,C = Workout A, Workout B and Workout C\n- #1, #2, #3, #4 = 1st time doing the routine, 2nd time doing the routine, 3rd time, etc…\n- Sore = 1st time doing the workout; anytime you provide a new stimulus, there almost always will be soreness (delayed onset of muscle soreness, DOMS).\n- Less Sore = the 2nd time doing a workout. Your less sore because you’re more familiar.\n- Progression week = time to provide a new challenge by setting a personal record; you can set a personal record by:\nPersonal Records:\n- Do More Sets / Rounds (Volume)\n- Do More Reps (Volume)\n- Lift More Weight (Intensity and possibly Volume)\n- Finish Faster (Speed, Strength / Muscle Endurance)\n- Complete More Work in Same Amount of Time (Volume, Escalating Density)\nYou’ll focus on either doing more reps, lifting more weight or doing a level 2 or level 3 exercise.\nChallenge Week means you’re going to be challenged by me via a team challenge or an individual challenge. If we compared weeks 1-3 to sports they would be practices and challenge weeks are the games with testing days as championships and measurements as the awards banquet. If we compared them to work/school, weeks 1-3 would be like regular roles, challenge weeks would be like must hit deadlines, post testing would be like final proofs/exams and measurements would be like payday/GPA.\nTeam Challenge Day is a day I create a challenge for the team to overcome in a certain time period.\nIndividual Challenge is a day I create a challenge for you to overcome in a certain time period.\nBOX #3\nNotice how in BOX #3 there are “#1a’s” and “#1b’s”. This is the alternating Periodization part. You’ll do the same exact exercises on A#1a and A#1b, but the intensity will be different.\nE.G. Say we do a deadlift, a dumbbell row, a push up, a lunge, a plank and jumping jacks during workout A. When we do the “#1a” routine, we’ll do 60seconds of a strength exercise and 60 seconds of jumping jacks. You’ll shoot for 25-30 reps of the strength in 60 seconds and 60-80 jumping jacks (or 92 if you’re Lisa Radley) in 60 seconds. You’ll do 2 rounds of this “#1a” routine.\nWhen we do the “#1b” routine, you’ll do the same exercises, but we’ll do a 40:20 workout instead. 40seconds of a strength and 20 seconds of a cardio and/or strength.\nThis looks like:\nGoal: 25-30 reps & 60-80 reps\nGoal: 15-20 reps & 20-26 reps\nThis difference in time and reps results in a difference of total work volume, exercise level, intensity of exercise (weight used) and speed of exercise.\nThis model doesn’t really fit into our boot camp model because it’s more advanced programming and is unnecessary when you get recovery weeks like you do. It’s used more commonly in athletics when you have 8,10,12 … weeks until your season starts or your season lasts 28 weeks and you need to train hard each week using the best exercises which are the same exercises, so you vary the Periodization from workout A to workout A.\nO.K. Mike, please tie it all in together so I know how it’s going to Change My Body the fastest.\nYour training will always feel new, continually providing a new stimulus for change. You will get stronger, faster, quicker, more enduring and leaner. You will learn to move like never before or like you used to back in the day. You will learn about your body and what it can do. You will be motivated even more to improve your nutrition, kick butt in your conditioning and start living the active lifestyle. The rewards are limitless and this is a win-win lifestyle. Your old habits are win-lose. You win in the moment, but you lose in the long run. You practice what I teach you and you will become smoking hot, feel and look younger, gain abundant energy and get in the best shape of your life. If you don’t, then… The choice is yours. J\nWeek 1 Recap\nClass #1 was pre-test, class #2 was the 60:60 workout and towel pushes and class #3 was the bench day, fighting finishers and Burpees.\nTop 10 SHOUT OUTS of the Week!\n#10 and #9. Amy Travers and Susan Kessel on their 1-mile run finishes. Wow! Great arm & knee drive. You looked awesome sprinting to your finish.\n#8. Kathleen Cote for breaking the Women’s frog squat record and then resetting it with a new record of 67. The male record is 70, so the ladies are right on the threshold.\n#7. Paul Cullen for tying his class record of 17 line touches during the shuttle run.\n#6. Barbara Rutberg for sharing the idea of asking returning boot campers to be a mentor for rookies.\n#5. Meghan Honan for the idea to have 1’s and 2’s partner up during the day we use the bleachers/benches so we can share mats and space.\n#4. Marisa Cimino for teaching the fighting finisher to the 9am class.\n#3. Maureen Coffey for not losing to her tennis partner since she started boot camp.\n#2. The welcome backs: Florence Chan, Lynn Palmatier, Mary-Alice Tully, Lora Gross-Kostka and Donna O’Leary. Good to see you again.\n#1. Sally Babigian for the quote of the week: “The partner exercises are bad a**! Ouch you can feel both of those working big time, we will all have ab lines after this phase!\nShe was referring to the partner side plank w/ 1-arm chest press and the partner glute hams.\nFAQ, Schedule, Policies and Snow Policy\nTo see answers to common questions check out each of these tabs.\nWeekly Themes\nEach week we’ll have a different theme and even some days we’ll have a different theme. Themes make your experience more fun and remind you of how your body will be feeling or what you’ll be doing.\nWeek 1: Intro / M&O by appointment/ Pre-Camp Testing / Very Sore Week\nWeek 2: Less Sore week / Alternating Periodization begins\nWeek 3: Local Guest Day / 2nd through 1st workout\nWeek 4: 2nd time through 2nd workout / no measurements this weekend\nWeek 5: Recovery Week Begins / Progression Week Starts\nWeek 6: Start “Drop a Dress/Pant Size in 21 Days” phase / M&O for new participants / Progression Week Continues\nWeek 7: Team Challenges Begin\nWeek 8: Team Challenge, Individual Challenge, Post Testing and Measurements by Appointment\nImportant Dates\nNutrition Discussion\n- Sunday March 7, 10-11am @ B&G Club; must rsvp\nGrocery Shopping Tour\n- Sunday March 7, 11-12pm @ Stop & Shop on Watertown St; must rsvp\nLocal Guest Day\n- 6:30pm, 3/9 @ Mackenzie Center\n- 6am, 3/10 @ B&G Club\n- 9am, 3/10 @ Mackenzie Center\nPost Measurements\n- Sunday, March 27, 8-9:30am @ Mackenzie Center; rsvp for appointment time\nRecovery Week\n- Spring Break: March 22 to March 27\nToo see the CYBBC 2010 schedule click here\nLocal Guest Day\nI’m often asked, “can I bring a friend” or ‘can I come and watch your class?” Yes, but only on select dates and times.\nWhen you’re ready to start seeing results and stop following your plan, which we both know doesn’t work, you’ll attend this class. The people in class who’ve attended and follow my plan continually get the best body changes. What are you waiting for?\nGrocery Shopping Tour\nThis is simple, painless and somewhat common sense, but if you don’t know what to buy, what not to buy and how to navigate the store with speed, then you’re spinning your wheels and wasting your valuable time and hard earned greens.\nMeasurements & Testing\nWe measure and test to track your objective progress. This should be one of your most favorite parts. It’s like getting an A+ on a paper, earning a grant, a bonus or a promotion for your efforts, consistency and sacrifices.\nNutrition Tip of the Week\nConsume 4 things at every meal: protein, fat, carb and water. Carb in this case is a vegetable or fruit.\nEat starchy carbs (brown rice, oatmeal, sweet potato and/or quinoa) only 1-2 hours after a workout.\nBilling\nThe majority of billing agreements will now be processed on regular intervals. Some still need to be set up. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this process.\nEndurance Athletes\nIf you’re an endurance athlete or desire to become one and are looking for buddies to train with, look no further than Change Your Body Boot Camps. We have athletes of all levels in this class.\nGo to changeyoubodychallenge.net to join the Newton group and sign in to the endurance athlete discussion.\nChange Your Body Challenge\nI’m not yet sure when the next contest will be, but I’d like to do 2 (1 to peak for summer and 1 to peak for the fall/winter holiday season). I’ll keep you posted. In any event if you’d like to get to know your peers or ask me questions, please visit the forums on changeyourbodychallenge.net.\nChanging Your Body\nFollow the plan. If you want to change your body, improve your health and live a long active lifestyle follow my plan. It works. You hired me because your plan didn’t. This is what I do. Don’t pick and choose what you’ll follow and what you won’t because you’ll be wasting your time. Follow the plan and you’ll experience rewarding and lasting change. You deserve it, your worth it, put yourself 1st, don’t be like the majority of Americans be smarter. To borrow from Dave Ramsey, live like no one else so that later you can live like no one else.\nYour coach,\nMike Alves\nMikealves.com\nChange Your Body Challenge) {}"}

{"text": "Seventh from the left on the sagging parabola of a bookshelf, bound in the dusty green jacket with the blue embossing, sits a copy of an old medical textbook from 18th century Italy. None of the words make sense except those with obvious Latin roots, and the diagnostic information and treatment instructions are what doctors even just a few generations ago would dismiss as “barbaric.” But for the disturbed and nervous individual such as Mr. Paul Rafferty, owner of this particular copy of La Collezione Completa di Gravi Malattie, the information here is completely reliable. Rafferty uses a muddled, slapdash understanding of Italian to diagnose all of his aches and pains, his neuroses and paranoias in a fashion that makes sense for him, and provides him a fleeting moment of safety, sanity, and relief. He is an odd case, Mr. Paul Rafferty, and he knows this. For La Collezione tells him so."}

{"text": "Using Throttler, the PCC from the relatively new release of Sledge to Classics Megatron (I'm using Henkei) we have a sweet mace for Megs on the cheap. I know these guys run about 10 bucks above or below the border, this beats handing out $75+ for a mace from Masterpiece Megatron as seen in the thread below (which also looks kick ass, if you can get over the $$$$$$$ or know someone who wants to part with that mace): Have a bunch of Lego sitting around, I used an ordinary \"link chain\" lego piece to attach the PCC to Megs. Although it was a tight snug fit onto Throttler, it was a bit loose fitting into Megs' hand so I used a common Lego rod (the same dimensions used for Lego lightsabers) as a handle so that Mega could grasp it easier. Of course, just winding the chain around Megatron's forearm will keep it in place. Anyway, it looks pretty decent. I know shape-wise it's not a perfect mace by any means, but it is G1 color accurate (for those of us that care ) and dude.... it's ten bucks. As you can see, I'm also using Chopster (another PCC from Smoulder set) as Optimus's energon hammer so I'd say these two look pretty nice together. For $20+ you can have a decent Classics energon upgrade set here."}

The effects of graded transcranial magnetic and anodal electrical stimulation of the human motor cortex were compared in human subjects undergoing orthopaedic operations on the spine, before and after withdrawal of volatile anaesthesia. Corticospinal volleys were recorded from the spinal cord in the low-cervical and low-thoracic regions (six subjects) or the mid-thoracic region (two subjects) using bipolar electrodes inserted into the epidural space. 2. Electrical stimuli were delivered using anode at the vertex and cathode 7 cm laterally. The corticospinal volley at threshold consisted of a single deflection with a mean latency to peak of 4.17 ms at the rostral recording site. With further increases in stimulus strength the latency of this D wave shortened in two steps, first by 0.89 ms (seven subjects) and then by a further 0.8 ms (two subjects), indicating that the site of activation of some corticospinal neurones had shifted to deep subcortical sites. 3. When volatile anaesthetics were given, a corticospinal volley could not be defined in three subjects with magnetic stimuli of 70, 80 and 100% maximal stimulator output with the coil at the vertex (Novametrix Magstim 200, round coil, external diameter 14 cm). In the remaining five subjects, the component of lowest threshold was a D wave recorded at the rostral site at 4.0 ms when stimulus intensity was, on average, 70%. With stimuli of 90-100% a total of five small I waves could be defined in the five subjects (i.e. on average one I wave per subject). 4. After cessation of volatile anaesthetics in seven subjects, the thresholds for D and I waves were lower and their amplitudes were greater. The D wave remained the component of lowest threshold in all subjects, appearing at the low-cervical level with magnetic stimuli of 50%. However, in three subjects I waves also appeared at D wave threshold, and the D wave was smaller than with electrical stimulation at I wave threshold. There was no consistent change in latency of the magnetic D wave as stimulus intensity was increased to 100%. 5. These findings suggest that the previously reported difference in latency of the EMG potentials produced in upper-limb muscles by anodal stimulation and magnetic stimulation of the human motor cortex is not because the corticospinal volley induced by magnetic stimulation lacks a D wave.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)\nNational Center for\nBiotechnology Information,\nU.S. National Library of Medicine\n8600 Rockville Pike, Bethesda\nMD, 20894\nUSA"}

{"text": "Lee Daniels’ The Paperboy – his follow-up to 2009’s Precious – is bound to be divisive. At Cannes, the film garnered both boos and a 16-minute standing ovation. (EW’s own Owen Gleiberman understands both reactions: “I wanted to do a catcall and clap encouragingly at the same time,” he wrote after seeing its premiere.) It’s fitting, then, that the movie’s just-released trailer also seems divided against itself. The clip’s first 45 seconds or so seem to promise a relatively straightforward thriller about a southern belle with a no-good fiance (Nicole Kidman) and the short-shorts-clad kid who pines for her (Zac Efron). And then things get weird.\nBetween the gratuitous half-nudity, the cheesy split-screen effects, the campy music, and the fleeting glimpse of Kidman peeing on Efron to soothe a jellyfish sting – seriously – The Paperboy seems like it could be the cinematic equivalent of Stefon’s favorite clubs. But hey, what would you expect from a film with a poster that looks like the cover of a Jacqueline Susann novel?

His portraits of the women of Santa Monica, a low-security prison in Lima, Peru were featured in the group show Portraits at G Fine Art in 2008. Now, in 2009 Chao presents a more complete set of portraits from the series.\nSanta Monica holds corrupt government officials, murderers, drug traffickers and thieves. Of the 1,125 inmates at Santa Monica, 198 are foreigners. All the foreign inmates were caught at the airport, trying to smuggle cocaine out of Peru. Six years and eight months is the standard sentence for drug trafficking and is the working title of the project. Chao describes the project as a collective expression of a group of women who share the same predicament, “Santa Monica is not so much a prison project, but rather a starting point - a subtext and intellectual component for a humanistic portrait project.”\nBecause these women are not required to wear uniforms and the common areas don’t reflect a typical prison atmosphere Chao is able to capture portraits that relate true emotions and have open possibility for interpretation. With each project he has undertaken Chao makes efforts to avoid reinforcing a stereotype. In his restrained sensibility Chao unveils what initially drew him to these women, their extraordinary experiences and the sensations that come with those experiences.\nChan Chao was born in Kalemyo, Burma in 1966. He and his family left Burma for the United States in 1978. Nazraeli Press has published two books by Chao. “Burma: Something Went Wrong”, a series of Burmese freedom fighters and “Echo” series of female nudes. His Burma portraits were included in the 2002 Whitney Biennial. Chao’s photographs are in the permanent collection of Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, The Corcoran Gallery of Art, The Whitney Museum of American Art, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, L. A. County Museum of Art and LaSalle Bank Photography Collection.\nGallery hours: Tuesday –Saturday 11am - 6pm\nG FINE ART\n1515 Fourteenth St. NW\nWashington, DC 20005\nT. 202.462.1601\nF. 202.462.1604\nFor more info on me visit my official website"}

{"text": "Newsletter #5\nJanuary 2021\nHey, All.\nHope each of you is doing relatively well. Happy New Year and welcome to Fanstratics Newsletter #5 (January 2020).\nA quick subscriber update...\nLast Newsletter: ~2300.\nThis Newsletter: ~2550.\nThis month's Troop concept sketch is the Troll Witch., including a COVID wrap-up, followed by part three of the lengthy interview I did with Tavern of Might and Magic.\nUntil next time.\nGreg\nFanstratics Game Director & Designer\n*****\n(Questions, Answers & Comments) HoMM3, will find much in common with this wise, honorable, and enduring faction. Currently, the Troop representing them is the Hammersmith, which can be viewed in the Fanstratics Gallery.\nWhat was the Market of Time, which was cut from HoMM3? HoMM3? HoMM3?\nSimilar to Shadow of Death, I was long gone from NWC when these ports were undertaken. For instance, there was an attempt to port HoMM3.\nI’m curious about your COVID experience. My symptoms were few and only lasted a couple weeks, but I’ve had friends who stayed in bed for more than a month. Is your experience mild or severe?\nI know this is not game related, but it is relevant to the present day. So...\nOn the day before my birthday, I fell ill with earaches and the inability swallow without intense pain. Initially, I suspected strep throat, as it was going around, but a quick five minute test, at a nearby clinic, produced a negative result.\nMy doctor wanted me tested for COVID, and a couple days later, I took another quick test. Two days after, my COVID test came back positive.\nFor the next five weeks, I took a handful of vitamins every eight hours, and lived on Aleve and Excedrin (not at the same time). I had almost every symptom: fever, chills, cough, shortness of breath, fatigue, muscle aches, headaches, loss of taste, sore throat, lack of appetite, and brain fog. Of these symptoms, fatigue and lack of appetite were the worst. It created a vicious cycle; I’m tired and not hungry... which leads to be being even more tired with even further diminished appetite. It’s difficult to put into words, especially the oppressive weight of the fatigue.\nI had no energy for work, and when I did muster the strength for thirty to sixty minutes... I couldn’t focus. Browsing the web... watching a movie... quickly gave me splitting headaches. On the day Cyberpunk 2077 released, I made an effort to play, and after thirty minutes, I’d acquired a raging headache and queasiness.\nIn the end, I spent most of my time... existing. I began to wonder if I had ‘Long COVID’, which is measured in months, not weeks. It was demoralizing, and if it wasn’t for family and friends, I’m not sure how I would have managed.\nThankfully, on Day 1 of Week 6, I began to feel less miserable, and by Day 1 of Week 7, I was feeling relatively normal. Presently, I’m still working my way back, and experience bad days and good days.\n****\nTavern of Might and Magic\n2019.02.28\nQuestions 24-34, 24 to 34, of 58.\n24. What was the conclusion of Seeds of Discontent, the secret campaign from The Restoration of Erathia? There’s a reference campaign in Archibald’s diary in the MM7 manual (perhaps my seed of discontent will grow in these ‘disputed lands’; that also implies that he was somehow involved in the events per his plans to stir up tensions between Erathia and AvLee), but other than that, the game doesn’t mention the events of Seeds of Discontent at all. It indirectly suggests -- in that the lands between Erathia and AvLee are still being disputed -- that the rebels failed to make the Contested Lands independent. Can you provide more details on the outcome of Seeds of Discontent? How was Archibald involved, if at all? What is the eventual fate of Faruk Welnin? Was Ryland severely reprimanded for basically going against AvLee?\nThe purpose of the Seeds of Discontent campaign, aside from being the ‘secret’ campaign, was to showcase the ‘upgrade a town’ victory condition. There was no planned ‘official’ story conclusion for the campaign.\nSo, like many lore threads, we laid down enough story to satisfy the design requirements, then left the various elements to be possibly picked up by someone else at a later time. This occurred when the MM7 team decided to give Archibald an undefined ‘behind the scenes’ role in the Seeds of Discontent. So, yes, Archibald did play a role in the Contested Lands becoming independent.\nIn my opinion, as to the conclusion of the Seeds of Discontent, upon making Welnin the Capital in the campaign, the Contested Lands became their own kingdom. Despite the rebels declaring independence, this does not mean Erathia and AvLee acknowledged this reality. It is one thing to declare independence. It is another to remain independent. As for Faruk Welnin and Ryland, their fates were left unresolved, again, to be possibly picked up by someone else at a later time.\n25. MM7 focuses on Harmondale – a town and castle in the Contested Lands that has been a key point of human-elven disputes since the Timber Wars, changing hands numerous times. The negotiations to divide Harmondale and other Contested Lands between Erathia and AvLee is a crucial plot point and choice in the game. Harmondale itself can become a small indepenent kingdom, or come under the control of either side. It is established in Armageddon’s Blade that Brandis Fairweather was chosen to be the Arbiter, thus making it clear that the Path of Light in MM7 is canon. Other than Gelu asking Judge Fairweather for advice, Harmondale is unrelated to AB’s plot – the Erathia-Eeofol war never reaches it, with Catherine holding the Kreegan off, and the lords of Harmondale were most likely in an expedition to other planets per MM7’s canonical ending. Thus, no clear indication is given about Harmondale’s political status. The campaign shows that at least some of the Contested Lands, like the Moss Valley near Eeofol’s border, belong to Erathia (which fits with all three outcomes, since the majority of the Contested Lands are divided between the two kingdoms anyway), but nothing is directly said about Harmondale. Lucifer calls Xenofex’s killers those heroes from Erathia, but that can easily be taken as him talking about the heroes place of origin, not their affiliation at the time. Was there a canonical outcome of the choice regarding Harmondale, or was it left entirely up in the air for players’ interpretation and potential further use of any option?\nTo my knowledge, there was no canonical outcome regarding Harmondale. This was strictly a MM7 thing, and I suspect, purposefully left open ended for player interpretation.\n26. A small bit about Harmondale and Welnin. Two maps -- one of HoMM3 promotional images and a map from MM’s strategy guide – mark Welnin as a region, thus implying that the name is also used for the area around the town. In MM7 one of NPCs is mentioned as living in a small village in Welnin, just south of the city of Harmondale, and there’s Welnin Cathedral in Harmondale. Are the two towns located rather close to each another?\nThis is a tough one. I would reference the following maps.\nWorld of Enroth ()\nMap of Antagarich ()\nContested Lands (campaign) ()\nThe Map of Antagarich, the one with the Chinese characters, is essentially the map the MM7 team used when they started work on MM7. On this map, you can see within Erathia, three smaller regions colored redish-purple. These were The Contested Lands.\nWelnin was supposed to be a town, later converted into the capitol of The Contested Lands. When the campaign was created, there was no formal location for Welnin. The Contested Lands campaign map clearly shows it belongs in the upper region, but there is no specific spot indicated within this region.\nWhen MM7 was created, the MM7 team placed both Harmondale and Welnin for their own purposes. At this point in time, unless you can reach Paul Rattner or Tim Lang for contrary information, I would run with the World of Enroth map showing Harmondale and Welnin almost parallel to one another. As for the NPC from MM7, I would disregard the line of dialog. It feels like a continuity error to me.\n27. MM 6-7 and HoMM3 have several mentions of Phynaxia, a nation that was part of Erathia, but later became independent, forming the Phynaxian Empire. Phynaxia was located to the south of what is now the Contested Lands (thus placing it in the area of Grainrich, Fire Coast and Rionpoint), and Erathia expanding it’s borders beyond Phynaxia was the cause of the Timber Wars. The date of the rise of Phynaxian Empire in the steppes of southern Erathiai is a year after the end of the Timber Wars. Was Erathia and AvLee being weakened after over a century of warfare what triggered Phynaxia becoming independent and rising to power? Considering that Phynaxia fell to the elves, has Avleeans settlers (the ones that we fight in the first Inferno mention of Dungeons and Devils; Ryland is one of them) arrived in Rionpoint around that time, or was that unrelated?\nThis is another tough one.\nAfter the Timber Wars, I think is it is safe to assume the armies of Erathia and AvLee were relatively depleted. Under these conditions, you would have an obvious power vacuum, into which Phynaxia would attempt to rise. Under any other circumstances, I couldn’t imagine Phynaxia standing against healthy armies from either Erathia or AvLee.\nAs to Avleean settlers, again, I think you make a reasonable assumption. I see no reason why elvish settlers would not expand from Phynaxia, into other nearby areas, after it fell.\n28. Was Rionpoint named after Rion Gryphonheart, the founder of Erathia? Was it the region from which he hailed or the one from which he started to unite the humans or something else?\nTo my knowledge, this was never specified, but it is logical to assume Rionpoint was named after Rion Gyrphonheart.\n29. Edric’s bio says: Edric's father was the first man in Erathia to domesticate and train a wild Griffin. Now, Edric continues what his father started by setting up Erathia's largest Griffin breeding grounds for use in the King's armies. However, a campaign texts?\nThis appears to be a continuity error created by a lack of research or simple miscommunication. It happens. Were I to correct it, your solution, specifying an ‘ancestor’ would be appropriate.\n30.?\nI cannot. This is really a question for the designers of MM7.\n31. Did you have ideas on what Vokial’s kingdom was, where it's located and what is its current status?.\n32. The Forest Guard is described as having been Erathia's eyes and ears for centuries. It is also distinct from the rest of Erathian military in that it has worked together with the forces of AvLee numerous, even admitting Avleeans to fight in their ranks. Was the Forest Guard formed before, during or after the Timber Wars?.\n33..\n34. Can you tell us some additional details on Gelu's background and potential eventual fate you and/or Marcus Pregent created.\nUnfortunately, there really is nothing more to tell. What few ideas I had in mind were thrown away and never developed when the Forge was cut, and there was no long term plan beyond the second expansion. Marcus may have had some ideas, but we never discussed them.\n*****)"}

{"text": "Remote Teaching and Learning Plan for Gaelscoil Osraí\nDear Parents and Guardians,.\nWe recognise the difficulties some parents may have with internet connectivity, limited hardware and software resources, limited technological background and ability and we will endeavour to meet those needs where possible. We also recognise the challenges presented for parents working from home to online learning.-Bullying (including Cyber Bullying) Policy.:\n. Gaelscoil Osraí uses a variety of child friendly, online tools, which assist in providing more effective teaching and learning, while also enabling greater communication between staff, families and students.\nGuidelines for good online communication in National, Zoom, Google Meet)\n- Parental permission will be acquired before setting up a profile for a pupil on a communication forum.\n- For video/Zoom calls, parental permission is implied, as the link to a video call will be communicated via the parent/guardian’s email address. Essentially, by virtue of the pupil logging on to the call, permission is assumed.\n- For security reasons, passwords will be provided to families, where applicable.\n- Gaelscoil Osraí cannot accept responsibility for the security of online platforms, in the event that they are compromised.\nGaelscoil Osraí will use four online platforms for communicating and connecting with families/pupils. Our ‘Remote Teaching and Learning Plan’ will include a combination of assigned work, pre-recorded lessons (Seesaw & Google Classroom) and live sessions (Zoom and Google Meet).\n1: Aladdin Connect:\nStaff will communicate regularly with parents and pupils via Aladdin Connect. All families are asked to download and register with the Aladdin Connect App and to check it daily for updates and important information.\nEach teacher will be assigned a class e-mail address through which he/she will communicate with parents/guardians and vice-versa. Parental queries will be addressed as per Parent Staff Communication Policy and should relate strictly to your child’s teaching and learning.\n2: Seesaw:\nSeesaw Class App is for our pupils to connect to their folder and they then have the option of uploading items to their folder for their teacher to see. This app is used from Junior Infants to Third Class and requires a QR code which can be accessed through the school email. Parental consent is required prior to using this app. Each child will be assigned an individual access code. Unfortunately, single family log in is not facilitated on Seesaw. Some lessons will be pre-recorded and uploaded via Seesaw.\n- Google Classroom: (also includes Google Meet where appropriate)\nGoogle Classroom is an online platform used with fourth to sixth class pupils and again it enables our pupils to connect to their folder of work and it also allows access to their teacher when required. Our senior teachers may also provide feedback and communicate with pupils via Google Classroom. Some lessons will be pre-recorded and uploaded on Google Classroom. Parental consent is required prior to using this app.\n- Zoom and Google Meet:\nZoom and Google Meet are video-conferencing platforms which will enable teachers, staff and pupils to connect via a live link. Teachers will connect with pupils regularly using pre-arranged Zoom or Google Meet Meetings.\nRules for pupils using online communication methods:\nFor submitting learning:\n- Submit work and pictures that are appropriate – have an adult take a look at your work before you send it.\n- Use kind and friendly words.\nFor video calls/Zoom:\n- Remember to ensure you join each online meeting using your family name.\n- Pictures or recordings of the video call are not allowed.\n- Remember our school rules – they are still in place, even online.\n- Set up your device in a quiet space, with no distractions in the background.\n- Join the video with your microphone muted but your camera on at all times.\n- – set a reminder if it helps.\n- Enjoy! Don’t forget to wave hello to everyone when you join!/Zoom\n-.\n- You will automatically enter a waiting room when the code for an online meeting call has been entered. and turn the camera on.\n- Students:\n- Check assigned work each week\n-\n- In so far as possible, provision for students at very high-risk to Covid 19 will be made when using Remote Learning methodologies.\nRemote Teaching and Learning Protocols for Parents\n- We ask parents/guardians to ensure protocols for students are adhered to\n- Check-in on their child’s school work on a daily basis and talk to their child about the work being assigned\n-/SNA’s\n- Check uploaded work each week\n--19 (see HSE Guidelines) where medical certification has been provided to the school.\n- In the case of all other children who are instructed to self-isolate by their GP or HSE Public Health, educational provision will be provided as follows:\n--day isolation period). Teacher will link in with the pupil via See-Saw/Google Classroom (not video conferencing)\n- School POD (group of six) instructed by HSE Pubic Health to self-isolate. Teacher will link in with the pupils via See-Saw/ Google-Classroom (not video conferencing)\n- School bubble (whole class) instructed by HSE Public Health to self-isolate (14 day isolation period). Teacher will engage with the bubble daily on Seesaw/Google Classroom and regularly on Zoom\n- Whole school closure as instructed by HSE Public Health (duration of closure will be advised by Public Health). Teachers will engage daily with pupils, using a blended approach of pre-recorded lessons, Seesaw/Google Classroom and regular contact on Zoom/Google Meet.\nPlease note that the current situation is quite fluid and these circumstances may vary throughout the year.\nSummary:\n→Do what you can, within your circumstances. Forget about following books and workbooks outside of the work set by teachers for the moment.\n→There will be no school work set for planned school closures/holidays. There will be no interaction on Zoom, Seesaw or Google Classroom during these times.\n→ Please keep abreast of postings on Aladdin Connect– it is our main mode of communication.\n→We ask parents/guardians, students and teachers to ensure protocols are adhered to at all times.\n→If you have yet to connect to any of the on-line platforms/Aladdin Connect, NS at its meeting on:\n19th November 2020 and is subject to change, in light of any guidance or instruction received from Department of Education and Skills/HSE Public Health.\nSigned: Fr. Richard Scriven\n(Chairperson BOM Gaelscoil Osraí)\n*Recommended Apps\nIn addition to a pared back plan of work for your child/children, we suggest the following Apps for your child’s use too, if you can access them. If not, do not worry, they are helpful but not essential.\n- Cúla 4: Excellent for younger pupils for Irish vocab – very child friendly. There are also videos of your children’s favourite cartoons here as Gaeilge which would be useful to watch occasionally to keep up with Irish\n- Doulingo: most suitable from 2nd class upwards. Excellent app. Tests your child Irish ability level at the start and they work away at their own level for 10mins daily\n- Mathduel: For tables. Fun and interactive\n- Starfall: For spellings. Again, very child friendly and useful to keep spellings progressing without feeling like schoolwork\n- Jolly Phonics App: to keep up phonics learning for infant classes\n- Dolch words Apps: (there is a wide range available): for the development of sight words\n- Nessy Apps: for reading for pupils with dyslexia or difficulties\n- PinkFong: Digital stories for infant classes. Excellent and engaging\n- Khan Academy: Useful for maths for older pupils especially\n- Kahoot: for general knowledge and quizzes\n- Toontastic: probably the best app ever for digital storytelling – pupils can devise their own digital story, picking a range of characters, settings, even musical background. They plan a beginning, middle and end to their story and can record their own voices to tell the story\n- Puppetpals: similar to toontastic – useful for younger pupils. They can record themselves telling the story also\n- Lightbot – Coding app – super for all ages."}

{"text": "So today is Thursday, August 25, 2011. My babies went started school today... my oldest in high school and my youngest in jr. high this year!! Where has the time flown by!! I look at my youngest an remember when my oldest was that age. I was soo sick back then, I actually apologized to her for not being able to be there for her like I wanted to be. From surgery complications to my fibro going NUTS to their father leaving and up and joining the military when I was in the hospital unable to even take care of myself, let alone 2 small children! Needless to say, that time period was one of the hardest things I have ever endured. It lasted WAY to long with the LACK OF DOCTOR care (back then, now, thank you Dr. M, I love you, your the best!!) and everything my body and spirit went through.....\nYesterday, Wed the 24th of Aug, I woke up around 6 am with the worst migraine I've had in years. When I say bad, I mean BAD!!!! Me and the girls had haircuts and we couldn't miss them (school started today and we were looking shaggy), so while the older girls were getting their haircuts, I took my youngest to get a pair of shoes for school that she needed. We were right next door to Maurices (my favorite clothing store) AND I even have a $5 coupon, and I didn't even go in.... that's how sick I was!!\nThe migraine came from a combination of things... all of them rolling together to form \"A Perfect Storm\", well, perfectly AWFUL!!! I overdid it, the temps were over 100 degrees and I was out and running errands in it, drinking too much coffee (in the form of my yummy fraps).... and I was sooo busy getting everything ready for the girls to go back to school.... they were busy too.... and I went a little \"manicy\", I hate admitting it, and I hate seeing it in myself even worse, but I know I struggle with bi-polar. It is something that I know how to manage and facing it is the first step.... going back to my \"storm in my head\", better today, but I slept and slept and slept.... and better.... yay!!\nI can't believe how busy I've been or how sick I got or how big my girls are and life.... been a crazy couple days and filled with pain and disappointment, but there was good as well, the girls liked their new schools!! As scary as it was, and as emotional as it was, it was good.\nI thank the Lord for such amazing and wonderful daughters and thank Him for my doctor I have and that I am feeling better and for the chance to rest. As for my fibro and bi-polar, I thank God that He holds me close and never ever lets me go.... with Him I can make it through anything, but without Him, I have nothing and couldn't make it through anything!! HE IS.... EVERY REASON..... til next time... in His loving arms..... ~B"}

{"text": "Thirty Republican senators last week introduced a bill to stop the Environmental Protection Agency and the Army Corps of Engineers from proceeding with their proposed rule known as the Waters of the United States.\nThe legislation, called the Protecting Water and Property Rights Act of 2014, is being led by Sens. John Barrasso and Mike Enzi, both Republicans of Wyoming.\nOn March 25, 2014, EPA and the Corps released their proposed rule redefining “waters of the United States” under the Clean Water Act. The bill prevents finalization of the agencies’ proposed rule. It also prevents the EPA and the Corps of Engineers from using the proposed rule or any substantially similar rule or guidance document in any other rulemaking or regulatory decision.\n“After already calling on the EPA and Army Corps to withdraw the proposed rule, I want to make sure that the expansion of regulatory jurisdiction over ‘Waters of the United States’ is shelved for good,” said Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., a co-sponsor of the bill. “This straightforward legislation prohibits the administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency and the secretary of the Army from finalizing the rule or trying a similar regulation in the future.”\nThe American Farm Bureau Federation officially endorsed the bill, Roberts noted.\n“There are some very real examples of overreach by the EPA and the Corps of Engineers that show how ridiculous this regulation is,” said Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, another co-sponsor.\n“It only serves to muddy the water of a dry creek,” Grassley said.\n“Redefining what a navigable river is, even claiming jurisdiction in places where water doesn’t flow, just shows how out of touch the Obama administration is. This is way beyond the law. Passing legislation is an uphill battle, but this usurpation of power has to be stopped.”\nThe full text of the legislation can be accessed via"}

{"text": "27 Feb Our Story Through A Food Driven Road Trip\nBlend Catering recently had the honor of holding a wonderful tasting for Reno Bites Week that we based entirely on a road trip we took together as a couple. This tasting was such a fun way for us to share our favorite dishes in a way that tells our story. Each menu item represented a place we visited on a map as our menu. Our guests responded to the menu and loved taking the trip along side us as we took them on a journey through food.\nBeing that we eat breath and dream food, most of our vacations turn into food based vacations that eventually inspire our menus. Below is the story of one such vacation.\nThe inspiration for our menu all started with a road trip – the first trip we took when we were living in San Francisco and moved to Florida. We drove all the way from Reno to Fort Lauderdale (in a Jetta that couldn’t quite make it over 50 miles an hour, mind you). Along the way we stopped at the most delicious restaurants we could find. Each of these dishes provided inspiration for our menu we ended up sharing for Reno Bites.\n1st Stop: Vegas – Thai Sausage\nOur very first stop was in Vegas where we just had to eat at Lotus of Siam, the number one Thai restaurant in Nevada. Here we had one of the best meals we have ever tasted. The sausage dish we served this night was an interpretation of their very special Isaan, which consists of grilled sour pork sausages, served with fresh chili, ginger and peanuts.\n2nd Stop: Phoenix – Neapolitan Style Pizza\nOur next stop was Phoenix, Arizona. Here we stopped for what was promised to be the best pizza in the US. And it truly delivered. Pizza Bianco began as a small, wood fired pizza place in the back of a grocery store and grew to be one of the most renowned pizza places in the west. We based our own wood fired Neapolitan style pizza after this meal, topping it with red onion, pistachio and parmesan cheese.\n3rd Stop: Austin, Texas – Savory Granola Salad\nNaturally, we ate at A LOT of places in Austin. But of all the restaurants, cafes and doughnut shops we went to, our favorite meal was a salad at Barley Swine. Everything here was meticulously plated and each meal was very well thought out. The salad course was beautifully composed. Every detail was taken into account. It was the first restaurant we had ever been to that had very thoughtful food, but in a non pretentious setting. Our salad borrowed this idea from that course – bitter green salad, savory granola, Asian pear, avocado and pea shoots. It had everything – bitter, salty, crunchy, creamy, sweet – to touch on all your senses in a salad. Now, all our salads take texture into account because, as we found out that night, texture is what elevates a salad to something really special.\n4th Stop: New Orleans – Cheeks & Leeks\nWe stayed in New Orleans for two nights. The best restaurant we went to was Cochon (which means pig in French). The dish they are most known for is their braised pork shoulder with cabbage and puffed chicharrones. It was lovely. It was somehow both crispy and tender on the inside, served with a bacon and pork broth.\nWe served our interpretation in the form of pork cheeks. Our dish was based around pork, leeks and cabbage. We slow cooked the cheeks and glazed them in chard, onion, sherry wine and pork sauce served with leek soubise (slow cooked onions and butter puree), caramelized leeks which were poached, seared, then dehydrated and then rehydrated in butter and leek stock, crispy leeks which were thin sliced in cold oil then slow cooked and spread on a tray to let crisp. The cabbage was slow cooked in butter and bacon fat, quartered, cooked, then charred in a pan and pulled apart. We garnished the dish with nasturtium from our garden to add a horseradish spice to the dish.\n5th Stop: Florida – Cuban Style Seafood Dish\nIn Florida you just have to have Cuban food. We stopped at Garcia’s, a Cuban style seafood restaurant right on the water. They are known for bringing in their own fresh fish. We based our Yellowtail Snapper dish on our experience here. Our dish was fried with mojo sauce which we made from fresh oregano from our garden. We paired it with a side of plantain tostones, or twice fried green plantains.\n6th Stop: Nashville – Locally Sourced Grits\nGrits has been on our menu from the very beginning, in our food truck days. In Nashville we went to Husk, which is famous for using all the best ingredients and keeping the Southern tradition alive with old heirloom seed stocks in the South. The best item on the menu is their shrimp and grits.\nFor our dish we served heirloom grits inspired from this meal. We used grits from Geechie Boy Mill (an heirloom grain from South Carolina that is not commercialized and has a ton of flavor in the grain itself), whole milk from Sonoma, and added raw milk cheddar to finish and garnished them with garden grown scallions.\n7th Stop: Denver – Beet Cured Trout\nOur next stop found us dining at Rioja in Denver. Here we dined on king salmon with puffed grains and Sorrel. And it was divine.\nFor our own dish, we used those same flavors with our refreshing beet cured ocean trout. We cured the trout with beets from our garden for three days. Once rinsed, the fish has a beautiful beet colored ring. We served it with fresh sorrel straight from our garden. We then added blood orange and puffed malted barley from Fray Ranch in Fallon.\n8th Stop: Elko, Nevada – Ribeye Cap\nWe just had to stop at The Star in Elko. Josh had never had Basque food and this was the best place to start. We were inspired by our meal here to create our ribeye cap which we marinated with leek oil, salt, pepper, and black garlic. The ribeye marinated for a day and was grilled with brown butter and lemon thyme from our garden. Garnished with local watercress and foraged onions.\n9th Stop: Reno – Gourmet Doughnuts\nOur final dish was dessert. This dish is the culmination of everything we have learned so far and brought back to our catering business in Reno. Our families joke that when we go on vacation it’s always an eating vacation. But that is just fine by us. We love what we do and we love sharing it with our Reno Tahoe community. Our doughnuts which we started in Florida on our food truck have come along with us everywhere.\nFor this dish we served two of our doughnut dishes, our Key Lime doughnuts and Rosemary Banana doughnuts. The Key Lime is made with graham cracker sugar and served with Keylime curd. The Rosemary Banana is made with ripened bananas which we add to our batter with a touch of cinnamon, rosemary and banana walnut powder (freeze dried bananas, walnuts and powdered sugar) served with rosemary crème anglaise.\nThis tasting was a very fun way for us to be creative and to share some of our story in our dishes. We loved getting to tell our story through food. We pride ourselves on catering food and drinks that best expresses our clients’ unique story. And it was joy to share our own!\n-!\nIf you have an upcoming event, we would love to hear your story and help bring a menu to life.

{"text": "Just took a detour with my friend Karen's blog: . Seems that back in Tyson's Corner outside of DC an ad company dreamed up an advertising poster for a one-month run in DC's Metro trains. 500 posters. Looks for all the world like the reflection of a woman's face in the black granite of The Wall in DC, red rose and everything. Except it has the names of stores instead of the dead. Plus big words proclaiming \"Time To Defrost\". Huh? Do they mean it's time to shop?\nAnyway, Karen, Jan Scruggs and a few other decent souls found it offensive, as should every American. Sent word to a DC newspaper columnist. Got the ads pulled. Columnist wrote a followup story. I read the followup, but then I made the mistake of reading some of the readers' comments.\nMost were supportive of the action. But then there were a few of those really trashy ones insulting the president, fellow Americans, war dead, etc. Name-calling. Labeling. Invective. Conversational non-starters.\nI've run out of patience with it. One of my favorite thinkers and writers featured in The Oregonian is Leonard Pitts, Jr. who (still has a job) writes for the Miami Herald and is picked up by other major papers. I find him thoughtful, logical, articulate, civil and not afraid to dig for the core of truth in things. Some weeks back I read followup comments posted by readers. They made me ill. Ashamed. Afraid for our future as a society if this is how we talk about and think about intelligent fellow citizens.\nI see it everywhere I read comments posted on the Internet. Are many of us so starved for attention that we run around like elephant-sized dogs scent-posting our most uncivil speech everywhere we can?\nThe anonymity and the reach of cyberspace seems to have wrung much of the sensibility right out of us.\nSo here's my new rule:\nI will never type anything on the keyboard that I wouldn't say to a person's face with grace and be prepared to defend with fact and love.\nPerhaps we need much less cyber-chat and a lot more one-on-one dialogue. Conversation requires both speaking and listening. Maybe less Facebook and more face-time?\nJesus reminded us to love our neighbors as ourselves. Hard to love someone you don't know. Easy to name-call, label and rant; easy to do anti-love. Harder to do the genuine article.\nFather, forgive us, for we know not what we've built...\nShalom,\nPastor Roger\nThursday, June 11, 2009"}

{"text": "Article Extras\nUpdated: April 27, 2013 6:38AM\nBorn in an era of anti-Catholic sentiment, 132-year-old St. James Catholic Church has survived prejudice, racial change, urban renewal and a destructive fire.\nBut barring either divine or worldly intervention, this grand old house of worship will soon fall victim to the financial challenges of the Archdiocese of Chicago and the general ambivalence of Americans toward such historic treasures.\nThat would be a terrible shame.\nEven as workmen went about the business Monday of dismantling the church’s rare organ, a group of two dozen parishioners and preservationists gathered in the frigid sanctuary to pray for Cardinal Francis George to reconsider his decision to demolish the limestone structure at 2942 S. Wabash.\n“Please be careful because you’re just going to have to put it back in,” Eileen Quigley called out to the crew taking apart the tracker-pneumatic organ that entertained attendees of the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair.\n“We can do that,” came the response from the balcony.\nUnfortunately, that can-do attitude has its limitations in the real world of church economics.\nThe archdiocese contends it would cost $12 million to rebuild and restore the church, which has stood vacant for four years because of concerns about its structural integrity.\nDuring that time, parishioners have celebrated Sunday mass in the nearby church hall.\nThe cardinal countered last summer by informing parishioners that instead of rehabbing the old church it would build a new, smaller one at 29th and Michigan at a cost of about $4 million.\nThe plan was originally embraced by the church’s lay leadership, which sent a letter to George applauding the idea. But opposition has been building ever since from those both inside and outside the church who want to see it preserved.\nNow those opponents say they have an offer from Chicago businessman Joseph Cacciatore to fix up St. James for a guaranteed price of $5 million, which upon completion he would offset with a $500,000 donation back to the church.\n“This church could be put back in very good condition,” argued parishioner Dave Samber, who led Monday’s prayer service. “We don’t know why there’s an urgency for this cardinal to take this building down.”\nTo parishioner Jerry Galipeau, however, the cardinal’s plan makes much more sense, given the current size of the St. James congregation and the future cost of heating and maintaining the old church.\n“We were a very small community lost in a very large space,” Galipeau said, referring to the period before services were moved to the church hall. Originally built to seat 800 to 1,000 churchgoers, St. James currently draws closer to 200 to 250 attendees on a Sunday.\n“I think it’s a beautiful building that’s falling down. I personally don’t want to be worshipping in a museum,” Galipeau told me. “I love St. James, and I want it to have the kind of future it can have, but it’s not in that building.”\nTo those who would save the building, the path to the future should honor the past.\nThe cornerstone for St. James was laid in 1875 by working-class Irish immigrants fighting to make their way in what was still a Protestant city hostile to Catholics.\nSome say it was a measure of that hostility that city leaders located its new elevated train line right against the back of the newly built church — the rumbling trains disrupting services to this day.\nAt the turn of the 20th century, St. James was briefly at the center of South Side affluence — before the money moved north. The city’s first Catholic mayor, John Patrick Hopkins, a member of St. James, was buried from there in 1918.\nThroughout most of its history, though, St. James has been notably lacking in clout — a “humble” church community in the words of Quigley, whose grandmother was baptized beneath its 200-foot steeple in 1897.\nBlacks were not allowed to attend the church for decades, even after the surrounding neighborhood became known as the Black Belt, forerunner of Bronzeville. Integration came in the 1940s, and since then the diverse congregation has become a progressive model currently most proud of its food pantry.\nAlmost the entire surrounding neighborhood was leveled by Richard J. Daley’s urban renewal, but St. James was spared. Then a 1972 fire gutted the church. The archdiocese didn’t want to rebuild, so the parishioners did the work themselves.\n“To my mind, that really was the beginning of the end,” said Sara Catania, who is writing a history of St. James and the Sisters of Mercy. The nuns ran the since-closed parish school from which Catania graduated before going on to a journalism career.\nThe churches of Europe have survived for centuries. I often wonder if anyone will ever see a centuries-old church in Chicago."}

{"text": "Ed Kuepper And His Oxley Creek Playboys - Live\nby John Clarkson\npublished: 17 / 12 / 2001\nEd Kuepper is one of Australian rock’s most versatile and prolific talents. A veteran of some thirty albums, Kuepper first came to prominence as the guitarist in the Brisbane group The Saints, whose 1976 single ‘I’m Stranded’ was one of the classics of the punk era and also its first Australian success. An individualist who has never aligned himself to any one particular movement , Kuepper left The Saints in early 1978 and since then, both with his bands Laughing Clowns and The Aints and also as a solo artist, has experimented in a wide range of styles including, as well as punk, jazz, rhythm and blues, folk, gospel and pop. Despite his extensive back catalogue , Kuepper, who has always toured regularly, has to date recorded only three live albums. Each one though has proved typically innovative, rather than simply retreading familiar patterns and territory, instead reworking and reinventing old sounds and investing them with new meaning. The first of these ‘S.L.S.Q.’ (an abbreviation for ‘Slightly Limited Sound Quality’) was recorded with the The Aints and, originally put out as a limited edition vinyl ‘official bootleg’ and then subsequently also released on CD, came out in 1991. A recording of a show that took place in a Sydney ballroom in the same year, ‘S.L.S.Q’ has The Aints trashily revising The Saints song book and also playing thrashy, aggresive covers of Ike and Tina Turner’s ‘River Deep, Mountain High’ and Del Shannon’s ‘Runaway’. The second ‘With a Knapsack on My Back’ is in contrast a quieter and more subdued affair, and a recording of a one man show played in Hamburg in 1997, showcases songs from all parts of Kuepper’s career. The third and the latest in the trilogy, which focuses mainly on Kuepper’s more recent work, is simply entitled ‘Live !’ and released originally in 1998, has just been reissued as a mid -price buy by his record label, Hot. As well as Kuepper on vocals and guitar, it also features the thunderous talents of the two members of his current backing band The Oxley Creek Playboys, bassist Alex Compton and drummer Simon Cox. Recorded at an undisclosed venue, ‘Live’ is reminiscent of Cheap Trick’s ‘At Budokan’, Neil Young’s ‘Weld’ and The Who’s ‘Live at Leeds’ in its charged energy, and co-produced by Kuepper with the appropriately-named Phil Punch, captures the exhilaration and excitement of an intense and lively show. Fiery in tone with lots of scorched and blistering guitarwork, it is essentially a rock album, but with many of its tunes stretched out to two or three times their original length, and long free flowing instrumentals and introspective work outs an essential part of its package, it also has elements of jazz. The album is humourously opened and closed with a scratchy backing tape that has obscure beatnik Wanda Robinson reciting poetry, and its first musical number is the rumbustious 1985 song ‘Electrical Storm’. Metallic and sharp-sounding with a ringing guitar effect and nasal, world-weary vocals from Kuepper,' Electrical Storm' has ,at six and half minutes, an epic feel and kick starts the album powerfully . ‘Weepin’ Willow Blues’, which appeared on Kuepper’s ‘Frontierland’ of 1996 as a synthesiser-based pop number and originally featured trumpets and trombones, is radically reworked and given a hard-scale rock treatment. ‘When I First Came to This Land’ is, however, more blues-orientated, while the loop-driven ‘La Di Doh’ has sudden stabs of gusting guitar, and a stomping tribal undercurrent . The set concludes with a heartwarming and soulful rendition of Ricky Nelson’s ‘Poor Little Fool’. Kuepper and The Oxley Creek Playboys are obviously having the time of their lives on ‘Live !’. Their music is concise and detailed, but is played with such enthusiasm and conviction that it is also catchy, infectious and above all fun. This is rock ‘n’ roll at its most exciting and enthralling, and its most captivating and self-assured.\nTrack Listing:-1 Intro\n2 Electrical Storm\n3 Honey Steel's Gold\n4 Liddle Fiddle\n5 La Di Doh\n6 My Best Interests At Heart\n7 Weepin Willow Blues\n8 When I First Came To This Land\n9 Black Ticket Day\n10 Poor Little Fool"}

{"text": "WASHINGTON - Air travelers may have their hands swabbed more often as part of a stepped-up effort to screen passengers for explosives, an Obama administration official said yesterday.\nAirports were told that more passengers should be randomly screened for explosives before, during, and after they go through metal detectors, the official said. The screening could include swabbing hands or carry-on luggage to check for traces of explosives, said the official, who requested anonymity.\nThe heightened screening follows a Christmas Day attack on a Detroit-bound airliner. A Nigerian man accused of being trained by Al Qaeda operatives has been charged with trying to blow up the plane with explosives hidden in his underwear.\nOther security measures have been enhanced since then. Heightened screening measures have been tested at five airports over the past month.\nTSA spokeswoman Kristin Lee said the stepped-up screening is random and that travelers will not see the same procedures at all airports.\n"}

{"text": "Gastroesophageal reflux (GER), the intermittent ascent of acid contents into the oesophagus, is a normal physiological process. In contrast, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is present when the reflux of acid contents causes troublesome symptoms and/or complications.1 Asthma and symptomatic GER are both common disorders in childhood and symptoms of GER are frequently reported among children with asthma.2,3 Historically, respiratory manifestations have been recognized as a potential consequence of GERD, and the relationship between asthma and GERD has been largely debated in the literature.\nThe aim of this article is to critically review the nature and the clinical aspects of this association in childhood and shed light on one of the most controversial fields of respiratory medicine.\nExploring the association between asthma and gastroesophageal reflux disease\nOver the last 30 years, several studies have evaluated the prevalence of GERD in children with asthma. Data are controversial, the differences in the reported prevalence being determined mainly by the criteria used for definition of GERD (that is, symptoms versus laboratory investigation), the asthmatic population included (mild versus severe asthma), the design of the study (interventional, cross-over, retrospective) and the presence of a control group. It is, therefore, not surprising that the mean prevalence of GERD in children with asthma varied from 19.6% to 62.9% when GERD was identified by gastrointestinal symptoms or oesophageal pH monitoring, respectively.4 Few studies included a control group, and the prevalence of GERD was 4.8% in healthy children. The pooled odds ratio for the association between GERD and asthma was 5.6 in controlled studies.4\nExploring the relationship between asthma and GERD in children is hampered by many shortcomings. A global, evidence-based consensus on the definition of GERD in the paediatric population suggests that GERD be defined by using a “patient-centred symptom-based” method.5 However, symptom-based criteria for GERD have significant limitations in children, because reporting of symptoms may be unreliable until the age of eight years.5 Furthermore, asthma and GERD may have similar symptoms in childhood, such as nocturnal cough, chest tightness and exercise-induced discomfort, thus making difficult to determine which children actually have GERD.6 Children and adolescents with GERD more commonly manifest cough and other respiratory symptoms than the typical oesophageal complaint of heartburn in adults.7,8 Indeed, in a recent study in children with poorly controlled asthma, no gastrointestinal symptom differentiated those with and without GER identified by oesophageal pH monitoring.9 Taken together, these findings emphasise that the prevalence of GERD in asthmatic children identified in studies that used symptom scores as inclusion criteria and/or endpoints is likely biased by the inability to differentiate symptoms of asthma from those of GER.\nThe majority of studies that examined GERD in children with asthma reported oesophageal pH measurement. However, these studies often selected a reflux-index threshold that was lower than that required by evidence-based guidelines, which possibly led to an overestimation of the prevalence of reflux in patients with asthma. On the other hand, pH-metry is limited by the inherent inability to detect non-acid reflux.\nFrom a clinical point of view, the temporal interdependence between GERD and asthma is an important proof of concept for a causal relationship. This aspect was investigated in three cross-sectional studies that assessed whether respiratory symptoms (wheezing, cough) followed episodes of GERD.10,11,12 These studies failed to show a consistent relationship between respiratory symptoms and periods of abnormal oesophageal pH or reflux symptoms, thus underlying that the association of GERD and asthma cannot necessarily be causal, but is rather due to chance alone.\nPathophysiological mechanisms\nThe pathophysiological relationship between asthma and GER has gained much attention by pulmonologists, gastroenterologists and physiologists over the years. The available evidence does not yet clearly indicate whether GER precedes and/or triggers asthma, or asthma precedes and/ or triggers GER. It is, however, likely that each one of these conditions may act as aggravating cofactor of the other.\nThere are several anatomic and physiological reasons that can justify the increased prevalence of GERD in asthmatic patients. Asthma is known to promote GER by different mechanisms including:\n• airway obstruction with concomitant increase of negative intrathoracic pressure, that increases the pressure gradient across the lower oesophageal sphincter;\n• cough-induced increase in intra-abdominal pressure, that in turn augments the gastroesophageal pressure gradient;\n• lung hyperinflation, that may alter the anatomic connection of the gastroesophageal junction through the crural diaphragm; and\n• asthma medications (such as beta2-agonists, aminophylline) that may induce relaxation of the lower oesophageal sphincter.13\nOn the other hand, two major pathophysiological mechanisms, which are not mutually exclusive, have been proposed to explain how GER may exacerbate asthma:\n• microaspiration of gastric content can cause tissue injury of the airway and local inflammation (aspiration theory); and/or\n• stimulation of pH-sensitive irritant receptors in the distal oesophagus may both elicit bronchospasm and increase airway hyperresponsiveness through cholinergic pathways (reflex theory).\nIn addition, neuroinflammatory reflexes may be involved through the release of tachykinins and other neurotransmitters in the airway by nociceptive afferent nerves, thus resulting in airway oedema, mucus secretion, vasodilation and bronchial constriction.14\nPatients with GER have significantly reduced laryngopharyngeal sensitivity because of repeated exposure of mucosa to small amounts of acid, thus increasing the risk for aspiration. Chronic microaspiration of refluxate into the airway may present with chronic cough, wheeze and recurrent episodes of pneumonia, and may result in progressive lung disease. However, there is no gold standard test for diagnosing chronic lung aspiration, and determining whether aspiration is a significant cause of respiratory disease remains a challenge in paediatric medicine.15"}

{"text": "Food trends pop up into our lives all the time. Some stick around but others faze out. We’re delving into 5 healthy food trends that you should include in your life and make sure that they stay!\nBy Ulisha Moodley\n1. FOOD BOWLS\nThese Insta-worthy and aesthetically pleasing food bowls are quite unavoidable, which is actually a good thing because they are nutritious and filled with delicious ingredients. These divine one-bowl wonders range from fruit-filled acai bowls to Hawaiian poke (fish or tofu) and whole-grain bowls.\nTRY IT: Chickpea and sweet potato buddha bowl\n2. FERMENTED FOODS\nFermented foods are causing quite a buzz in the food industry right now. Products such as kombucha, sauerkraut, kimchi, apple cider vinegar and kefir have multiple digestive health benefits and are loaded with probiotics. So the next time you’re in the shops, buy one of these. You’ll be quite impressed!\n3. COLLAGEN POWDER\nFrom taking care of joint and muscle health to improving digestion and being an excellent protein source, collagen is also great for skin care and anti-aging. However due to natural aging, the production of collagen decreases in our bodies. So to ensure that you get a daily dose of collagen, add 1 or 2 tbsp of collagen powder to your smoothie, in soups or in bone broth.\n4. COCONUT FLOUR\nIf you thought the popularity of coconut ended with coconut oil and coconut water, you’re mistaken. Coconut flour is a great and healthy alternative to add to baked goods. It will also give your dish a more decadent, nutty flavour. Coconut flour is gluten-free and packs 5 g of fibre per 2 tbsp, with only 2 g of total and saturated fat.\nTRY IT: Buckwheat and coconut flapjacks\n5. TAHINI\nI guess you could call tahini the Middle Eastern brother of peanut butter because this gem has become a staple in many kitchen cupboards. Used in smoothies, raw bars, salad dressing and even in cocktails, tahini is made from sesame seeds so it’s perfect for people who have nut allergies. The benefits include immune-boosting, regulating blood pressure and cholesterol properties, and it also improves skin health.\nTRY IT: Quinoa and tahini roll-ups\nHeader image: @wholefoodshouse// Instagram"}

{"text": "They're not thanking heaven for this 7-Eleven\nFocus Property Group is striking out with some neighbors in the Ballpark neighborhood. The company wants to put a 7-Eleven at 2425 Broadway, between Silver State Lofts and the PBA Architectural firm, and across the street from the Granada Fish Company.\nTonight at 6 p.m., representatives of Focus, as well as the Ballpark Neighborhood Association and Steve Oliver, the 7-Eleven real estate manager for North America, will be meeting at the Premier Lofts, 2200 Market Street -- and protesters will be gathering out front. They haven't forgotten that Focus booted the Monkey Bean, and independent coffee house, and they don't think a 7-Eleven will improve the neighborhood.\nThere was a time when a 7-Eleven in this neighborhood would have seemed like manna from heaven; after all, just a few years ago the area just past LoDo was known as \"NoDough.\" And an attempt to open a market in the 2000 block of Larimer a couple years back failed miserably; the economics of convenience stores can be tough without a company to back you up -- and buy in bulk.\nTwo decades ago, when neighbors protested a proposed 7-Eleven at Sixth Avenue, the company agreed that the outlet wouldn't sell liquor -- and such a fix might help in this case, too. But will it be enough for Focus to hit this one out of the ballpark? -- Patricia Calhoun"}

{"text": "Interview with Author W.D. Kilpack III\nAuthor W.D. Kilpack III is an award-winning internationally published writer. His work has appeared in print, online, radio and television, starting with his publication credit at the age of nine, when he wrote an award-winning poem. As an adult, he had received two Firebird Book Awards, one for his first novel, Crown Prince, and the other for Order of Light, its sequel. He also received special recognition from L. Ron Hubbard’s Writers of the Future Contest for my novella, Pale Face. He has been editor and/or publisher of 19 news and literary publications, both online and in print, with circulations as high as 770,000. He loves to cook and have cooked nearly every type of food on a grill. also happily married to his high-school sweetheart and is a father to five children, as well as helping to raise five stepchildren. He was born in Salt Lake City, Utah, where he continue to live, coach and teach.\nTell me more about your latest book\nI have two books that were both released last month: Demon Seed and Pale Face. Demon Seed is the third in the New Blood Saga and Pale Face is an unrelated science-fiction novella.\nIn Demon Seed, despite growing power of the forces of chaos, there is a glimmer of hope as Natharr realizes that there are also forces of order in play. It is made plain when he and his comrades escape the faceless realm and Natharr’s Sight is released. It reveals just how strongly the world needs the Guardian of Maarihk and the return of the legendary Knights of Ril to the land where Mankind was created. Racing for home unwittingly leads to unearthing an ancient force created by the Olde Gods, believed lost aeons past. Meanwhile, Darshelle and the crown prince struggle to make the most of their lives without Natharr’s protection. Forced to make their own way, the fruit of Quiet One’s efforts comes fully to bear, as Nathan and his summoned companion reawaken the animus of the ancient wood. The ramifications are horrible and far-reaching, changing their world forever.\nIn Pale Face, Hector Whitehorse did not belong — not here, not anywhere. He was born on a New Mexico reservation, but educated in the white-man’s school, Hector was part of two worlds, but at home in neither. It only got worse when his entrapment went from a feeling to a reality: trapped between Earth and someplace else. Hector’s close encounter nearly cost him his life. The repercussions could make him wish that he had not been so lucky.\nWhat was the most challenging aspect of writing these books?\nYou probably expect me to say something about creating the storyline or something like that, but the most challenging part was actually much more reality-based. For some reason that I’m not quite sure I remember — it might have been a moment of insanity — I decided to release two books in the same month. I guess I thought that, after two books (Crown Prince and Order of Light), I had a pretty good handle on the process. However, problems have cropped up in each book, and they have been pretty specific to each book. I guess it’s like raising kids: they’re all different, with their own challenges and quirks.\nTo deal with these challenges, I have about a month of twelve-hour days, seven days a week. It was much harder than I would have ever anticipated. I still feel like I’m trying to catch up on lost sleep.\nWhat is your normal procedure to get your books published?\nI do not outline my books. I know there are some out there who would say that I’m not a real writer because of that, but it doesn’t mean that I don’t have an idea of where the stories are going. There are times when I have to sit and write; I really don’t have any choice. So I write at least a paragraph to nail down the idea, although that usually goes from one paragraph to two, then three, then often into twenty pages.\nAnother reason why I don’t outline my books is this: when I’m putting in concentrated work into a novel, when I surprise myself, then I know it will surprise others. So, if I sit back and say, “Whoa, didn’t see that coming …!” I’m positive others will have the same response, and that’s my goal. I want people to be surprised, to have an emotional response.\nI don’t have a set number of drafts before a book is “ready.” I always try to knock out a first draft while things are flowing. However, starting with Crown Prince, I decided to try something new. Each time I sat down to write, I would go back about 10 pages and revise them, then go right into writing fresh copy from there. It made for a much cleaner “first” draft. With Crown Prince, I also started reading my books to my wife at night; she called them her “bedtime” stories. That allowed me to get a wave of editing in by reading them out loud. Incidentally, I think reading your work out loud is the most effective way to edit your own work.\nAll that being said, with the New Blood Saga, because it was flowing so well, I planned on future waves of edits while writing the first wave. I knew that something would need more fleshing out, so I would give it a quick, not-as-specific pass, then I might further develop that same concept in, say, book four, and come back to flesh it out. So, in essence, I was (and still am) writing and revising all eight books concurrently.\nI am also still tweaking here and there. For example, with Crown Prince, I made an edit because I learned that, in Medieval times, they didn’t say that hair was “braided.” They said it was “plaited.” So I tweaked that.\nDo you view writing as a kind of spiritual practice?\nI wouldn’t use the word “spiritual,” although I could see someone thinking something along those lines. For me, I can’t not write. I write every day, without fail. I can’t remember when that started, but it was in elementary school. I didn’t have a computer until after I got married, so I used to have a red three-ring binder full of lined paper so I could sit and write whenever I felt the compulsion. In fact, at my most recent high-school reunion, I was shocked at how many people mentioned that binder to me (I guess it was timely since I had published a novel) and how much of an impression that it had on them.\nHow many books have you written so far? List and name them all here\nWritten or published? I have four published books, three in the New Blood Saga: Crown Prince, Order of Light, and Demon Seed. My fourth is Pale Face.\nWritten? I have 26 unpublished books that have been through the initial-draft stage. Some are definitely more polished than others.\nWhat’s the best way to market your books?\nOf course, the best marketing is word of mouth. Nothing is more powerful than a recommendation by a friend you trust. However, getting the word out for people to know that it’s there is the trick. To do this, I have used Facebook quite a bit but, surprisingly, what has had the biggest impact recently is LinkedIn. I had a LinkedIn account that I hadn’t done much with for years, then decided to try seeing what happens if I put more focus there. Through LinkedIn, I’ve made contacts for podcast interviews, blogs, and even critics. One of the bigger book critics in India gave my book five stars, and now I’ve got hundreds of connections with people in India. I never saw that coming!\nHow hard or easy is it to establish and maintain a career in writing?\nThe “career” part, not the “writing.”\nIf I don’t have other things to drag me away — and I do mean “drag” — I can sit and write for eight to 12 hours straight. When I really get into it, I lose contact with the world and just sink into the world I’m building or experiencing. As far as a schedule, I write at least an hour a day, but it’s rarely that little. I haven’t really tracked how many pages I can write in a day, but I am the most prolific writer I know.\nI’ve always been a storyteller, even before I could write. I was published the first time when I was 9. When I was 15, I was actually hired to write for the first time. I was offered an editorial position for a sports publication. They rescinded the offer to be an editor and changed it to a reporter position when I told them I didn’t have a driver license and couldn’t drive around to all those events they wanted covered.\nSince then, writing has been a big part of every job I’ve ever had, even when I’ve been in graphic-design positions, because I could catch typos. Here’s another example: I worked at a company as the technical writer, and the marketing manager heard that I had a journalism background, so he asked me if I could help him meet a deadline for a press release. He told me what he needed, I left, then came back about 15 minutes later. He looked up and asked, “Do you have more questions?” I said, “No,” and handed him the press release. He was in awe. Then he asked me if I could help with other projects. By the time I left that company, I was writing about 95% of everything that was produced, regardless of the department or the audience.\nWhat is your advice for aspiring writers?\nThe best advice I have is write, write, write. You see a movie and a line of dialogue has you going down another path, write it down. You hear a song and a lyric strikes you, write it down. The best advice for someone wanting to be a writer is just that: start.\nVisit Author W.D.

{"text": "The disaster happened when Juan bumped in to the truck that was in charge of the jet dryers in order to keep the racing track dry and keep it safe for the competing racers. However, the racing flag had its timing wrong and it came sooner than it was supposed to come and Juan, who was totally unprepared for such circumstances, was driving at a high speed and this abrupt change of events lead one of the very probable situations to occur. He lost control on his vehicle and bumped in to the truck.\nThis recount of the event makes it sound like it was a result of a highly careless behavior of the Nascar and the disaster could easily have been prevented, had there been more responsibility and proper timing of the race.\nThe further consequence of the game was the fact that the huge fire broke out and extensive destruction occurred. The race had already been delayed twice and while the cleanup teams were around, fans started to leave because of the overly delay of the race and missed the ending of the Great American Race.\nThis entire catastrophe is to be blamed on the Nascar, who needs to be concerned about the fact that a large number of fans left the race without watching the end. This is new and bizarre and needs concern. Daytona 500 is one of the highly prestigious and important tournaments of the Nascar and missing them like this needs attention. Although, it is Montoya’s car who was at fault too because it caught fire and got destroyed but this is one of the many similar disasters that hit Nascar but missing the game and losing fans attention is new and needs quick addressing.\nThe delay happened because of the natural and hence uncontrollable constraints. The rain caused a delay in the race and it finally happened on Monday evening whereas it was supposed to happen a day before.\nTo make matters worse, the big race came with the problem of Montoya’s car and fans began to think whether this race will actually end. Nascar can evaluate and learn a lesson from this one. They actually handled the rain issue well by choosing another, favorable day but the Montoya’s accident was unforeseen and mishandled.\nThis accident has happened so there is no point looking back and get upset over the things that cant be reversed. However, Nascar can take numerous steps to prevent such a happening in the future. This one wasn’t an accident that can be afforded to have frequently so Nascar needs to set speed limits on cars generally and ensure even stricter measures when other vehicles are on track, as in this case. This was the type of accident that could have been fatal for the many and Nascar needs to ensure that not only the safety equipment needs provision but the limits and regulations must be set. In addition, proper coordination and timing must be right in order to ensure safety of all.\n"}

In this study, the antioxidant activity of β-glucan was examined to assess potential new benefits associated with β-glucan, because oxidative stress is considered one of the primary causal factors for various diseases and aging. β-Glucan extracted from barley was found to possess significant antioxidant activity. The amount of antioxidant activity was influenced by different physiologic properties (e.g., structure and molecular size) of β-glucan, which varied depending on the source and extraction method used.

{"text": "Today has been one of those messy days of grace for me.\nMy mindset has been fractured all day….. cracks were exposed in places of faith I previously thought were strong.\nMy emotions were fragile just enough to let me drift off to the abyss of pessimism.\nHindering oppressive thoughts drained into my soul….taking me back to long ago when I felt no grace.\nI thought I was beyond the point of wandering back to the valley.\nSomehow I stumbled right into a thicket of obscure dejection. I let man’s actions make me think I was less….unimportant….invisible.\nFunny how the enemy knows what days the physical body ails….making it hard for the spiritual consciousness to keep up.\nToday I felt as though I was a middle school girl being bullied all over again….bullied by life….bullied by another’s sin.\nI am a child of the King…… why do I let the world hamstring my heart at times?\nI know better!\nHow can we be on the spiritual mountain top for months only to be pushed off by the enemy in one short span of time?\nThere is shame in this weakness for me.\nAfter all…I thought I had passed the faith test….bought the t-shirt…..walking bow legged from so much truth poured into my soul.\nHow did I let this happen?\nI turned off the light way earlier than usual to sleep this melancholy hangover off. Tossing and turning side to side…. trying to get comfortable in my slumber.\nI started to pray…..wrestling with words…as well as my comfort…..but I couldn’t find physical comfort…for my spirit was in battle.\nThen I clearly hear HIM say…..\n“Work it out in words child….tell me exactly what haunts your heart tonight.”\nSo I turn on the lamp…I reach for my lab top…and tell HIM just what a rotten day I had.\nI tell HIM I am mad at myself for listening to the enemy’s lies.\nI tell HIM I’m sorry I didn’t filter my mind….I didn’t fall back on the truth.\nI tell HIM the pain I feel by hurtful actions and attitudes.\nImmediately….I start to feel peace…slowly soaking up the bitter spew of GOD-less thoughts.\nI literally can feel strength seeping back into my aching frame.\nTruth is pulsating through my spiritual veins again!\nI am an overcomer!\nRegardless of what emotional lava that has spread over my mind today.\nNo matter what suppression man may fling my way….\nNo matter the landmines of doubt the enemy made no attempt to disguise….\nHE has reminded me…..\n“Greater is HE that is in me….than he that is in the world!”\nThe Living GOD is in me!\nTHE LIVING GOD IS IN ME!\nAnd HE will fight my battles!\nAnd soothe my wounds!\nThe Living God will go before me in all my steps….and tomorrow?\nWell tomorrow will be another day…a new day….to take my stand in the truth of HIS faithful righteousness.\nA new day to be “HIS” love…..even when I am unloved.\nA new day to experience his mercies….for they are new every day.\n“Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.” Lamentations 3:22\nDon’t let the world consume and beat you up my friend….\nDon’t let the enemy exploit the fragile places of your heart.\nRemember who you are….and whose you are!\nFor you are a child of the one true King…..JESUS CHRIST!\nAnd you are an OVERCOMER!\nPress on OVERCOMER!\nPress on!\n6 thoughts on ““When The World Beats You Up””\nThank you Melanie for sharing!

{"text": "A.\nOne of these power-ups is red and has an \"e\" symbol. Hitting it, t will make the ball have spikes on its outer edges and turn red. The other power-up represents a money symbol and is orange. It will give players points in the game, but the ball won't alter its shape.\nThe walls will only crumble when the ball hits the red power-up and becomes spiked. when the ball is spiked by the red power-ups, it can break walls and players can advance. If a ball hits without being spiked, the walls will not collapse.\nPlayers must keep the ball from escaping. The walls crumble after getting hit, so players must rotate the ones still standing and make the orb bounce back.\nThe game offers various levels to play through that automatically switch after all the structural walls get broken besides one. This means that each side besides one gets hit with the spiked ball.\nAt first, this was a confusing concept to grasp because the game isn't totally self-explanatory. A couple times I thought the ball was about to fall between the walls' cracks, but to my surprise the level switched. This saved me from losing a life and the game only offers three per play through.\nThere are no continues or saves so players will have to start at level 1 every time they re-enter into the game or lose all lives. This was one shortcoming that I thought needs to be addressed in future revisions -- if iPolygon gets updated.\nOther shortcomings with this game relate to audio. Although there are various sound effects present when the moving ball hits power-ups and walls, there isn't any background music present in the game. I wished that som sort of a background tune was available present in other puzzle games on the App Store.\nThere are also two main modes of play that include an arcade mode, and a marathon mode. I am not actually sure what the differences are between them since they offer such similar gameplay. They are both based on getting as far as possible in the game without losing all three lives.\nOverall, this game needs a lot of work, but if you enjoy ricochet and are looking for a fun little time waster, check it out. The game is very colorful and is one of a handful of titles designed for the portrait orientation.\n©2012 Mango Life Media, Inc. 402 N B St. #108, Fairfield, Iowa 52556, USA\nPhone 800-373-6114 or 641-472-6330, Fax 641-209-5007.\nMagazine Customer Service"}

{"text": "The joke you are looking for is that the MAC didn't respond to GoDaddy.com email notifications and an automatic four-year renewal kicked in. There may be others but that's the one we're going with.\nBut in actuality, unlike a domain name you really didn't want anymore, with MAC football continuing to play the game in Mobile, Alabama, this just keeps bringing them a very winnable game in the postseason. It used to be a matchup against someone from Conference USA but they don't bring their best, so why should the MAC bring theirs?\nHaving MAC champions-or-first-pickies against the Sun Belt champion has made this a neat little game in recent memory. I mean, Christ, look at the history of the bowl game. The GMAC Bowl never had a winner score fewer than 41 points. The two years it's been called the GoDaddy.com Bowl, however ... enh, not so much excitement, but the potential has always been there. NIU-Arkansas State was supposed to be, I believe, a 57-51 quad-overtime game which for some reason didn't pan out. But they did win both times, and maybe the MAC is a notch above the SBC in the pecking order ... but we don't mind, so long as it helps the bowl record!\nOnly two teams outside the MAC have won the bowl: Southern Miss (boo!) and Tulsa twice (BOOOOO!), so I think we're in good shape to see future victories. Don't spoil it this year, OHIO! (Hey see what I did there?)\nConnect with Hustle Belt"}
