For Immediate Release
Office of the Press Secretary
NEW DELHI - Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano visited New Delhi on May 25-27 to launch the first-ever U.S.-India Homeland Security Dialogue—a critical step forward in the ongoing partnership between the United States and India to strengthen homeland security and counterterrorism collaboration and ensure the safety and security of both nations.
“The United States and India face common threats, and we must work together to develop common strategies to protect our mutual security,” said Secretary Napolitano. “Through the Homeland Security Dialogue, we will continue to expand upon our work together on issues including protecting cyber networks, securing the global supply chain, and policing our largest cities in order to enhance the safety and resilience of communities and citizens in both of our nations.”
In New Delhi, Secretary Napolitano joined Indian Minister of Home Affairs Palaniappan Chidambaram to launch the Homeland Security Dialogue—the first comprehensive bilateral dialogue on homeland security issues between the United States and India. During the Dialogue, Secretary Napolitano and Minister Chidambaram highlighted the efforts of both nations to secure the global supply chain, develop best practices and resources for effective policing in large cities, eliminate the trafficking of illicit goods and materials, and continue to develop and protect critical cyber infrastructure.
As part of the Homeland Security Dialogue, Secretary Napolitano also met bilaterally with U.S. Ambassador to India Timothy Roemer, Indian Minister of Civil Aviation Vayalar Ravi, Minister of Communications and Information Technology Kapil Sibal, Minister of Finance Pranab Mukherjee, Defense Minister Arackaparambil Kurien Antony, and Indian Ministry of External Affairs Foreign Secretary Nirumpama Rao.
On Thursday, Secretary Napolitano met with leaders of the Indian private sector and attended an industry breakfast hosted by the U.S.-India Business Council and the American Chamber of Commerce in India to highlight the Department’s continued engagement with the private sector partners in India on issues including critical security infrastructure protection to ongoing U.S.-India cybersecurity collaboration and best practices.
In January 2011, Department of Homeland Security Deputy Secretary Jane Holl Lute visited New Delhi in advance of the Homeland Security Dialogue to meet with Indian officials and underscore the critical importance of the two nations’ counterterrorism partnership. Moving forward, the United States and India will continue to foster this important dialogue to develop new and effective ways to strengthen global security.
Earlier this week, Secretary Napolitano visited Mumbai, where she commemorated Indian law enforcement personnel who lost their lives in the devastating Nov. 26, 2008 terror attacks in a wreath laying ceremony at the Mumbai Police Memorial, and met with Indian officials, including Maharashtra State Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan, Home Minister R.R. Patil, and Commissioner of the Mumbai Police Arup Patnaik, to discuss security best practices and continued collaborative counterterrorism efforts between the United States and India.
Throughout her trip, Secretary Napolitano has been briefed regularly by Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Administrator Craig Fugate, FEMA Deputy Administrator Rich Serino, and other senior officials on disaster relief operations in Missouri, Oklahoma and Texas following the recent storms and tornadoes.

Seen as the Red Bull B team and frankly well under budget compared to the A team, Toro Rosso are really starting to punch above their weight. Clearly the FIA's stranglehold on the CFD and Wind Tunnel regulations should suit some of the midfield pack and Toro Rosso are seemingly taking advantage of that fact.
As part of a pretty large upgrade package the Faenza based squad made what outwardly looks like a minor change to their Sidepod cooling outlets. In fact it changes not only the way airflow is dealt with internally but also changes the Sidepods upper surface performance, whilst providing a cleaner airflow path around the coke bottle and another low pressure zone above the diffuser. Austria proved to be a bad race for the team but expect these changes to have a good affect going forward.

An implementation with Keras. Whenever you build and train a model for a machine learning task, regardless of its being a classification or regression one.
Whenever you build and train a model for a machine learning task, regardless of its being a classification or regression one, your final goal is to make reliable predictions on new, never seen before input data. In other words, you want your model to generalize well on new data.
To achieve this goal, you have to prevent your model from being either excessively adjusted to training data (overfitted), or not capable of capturing pattern in data at all (underfitted).
Note that the concepts of overfitting and underfitting are strictly related to the notion of bias-variance trade-off.
In this article, I’m going to dwell on the problem of overfitting and how to deal with it.
One of the reasons why overfitting might occur is the lack of data. Indeed, if you are training your model on too few data, it will try to exasperate its extraction of features from the training data, with the risk of identifying patterns that do not exist.
However, it often happens that available data are very few and that is all we can have. Namely, imagine a manufacturing company that wants to examine snapshots of its machinery with the goal of classifying them as “healthy” or “at risk of breakdown”. To train its algorithm (let’s say, a convolutional neural network, CNN) the company will need a bunch of pre-labeled images. The procedure of data collection will need time, but what if the company wants to accelerate the process, starting from a small sample of images? Well, rather than waiting for new images to come, the company could use the available data and derive new images from them, in such a way that each “new image” is created consistently with respect to the existing ones.
This process is called data augmentation and it is extremely powerful in terms of the increase of accuracy of the model. In the next paragraphs, we are going to see different types of data augmentation for image data, plus their implementation with Keras.
My inspirational muse for this activity will be a majestic golden retriever:
The problem with deep learning models is they need lots of data to train a model. There are two major problems while training deep learning models is overfitting and underfitting of the model. Those problems are solved by data augmentation is a regularization technique that makes slight modifications to the images and used to generate data.
A few compelling reasons for you to starting learning Computer. In today’s world, Computer Vision technologies are everywhere.
Data Augmentation is a technique in Deep Learning which helps in adding value to our base dataset by adding the gathered information.
Data Augmentation is a technique in Deep Learning which helps in adding value to our base dataset by adding the gathered information from various sources to improve the quality of data of an organisation.
The agenda of the talk included an introduction to 3D data, its applications and case studies, 3D data alignment and more.

Diet 1920's - For Order Dietrine Carb Blocker Pill
Buy Dietrine Carb Blocker Pill Diet 1920's -
Do you find it difficult to eat a healthy diet because you are concerned about
carbs? If you said yes then you are not alone. Now with our new Dietrine Carb
Blocker we offer a 100% safe and stimulant free natural product. Dietrine
Carb Blocker is an exclusive formulation of research-supported botanical ingredients.
How Does Our Carb Blocker Work?
During the digestive process, your body converts carbohydrates,
found in starchy foods such as potatoes and pasta, into sugar. Your body
does this by breaking-down the carbohydrate molecule with alpha amylase,
an enzyme that is produced in the pancreas.
These sugar calories are either burned off, through exercise, or stored as
fat cells for future use. Unfortunately, inactivity means that these stored
fat cells accumulate. The result is weight gain.Dietrine Carb Blocker with
Phase 2®, an exclusive, all-natural nutritional ingredient extracted from
white kidney beans, "neutralizes" the digestive enzyme alpha amylase
before it can convert starch into glucose, thereby reducing the amount of
carbs absorbed. Essentially, it allows the carbohydrates to pass through the
system with less caloric intake.* Preliminary research and clinical studies
indicate that the Phase 2® starch blocker may reduce the absorption of
starch, thereby reducing the amount of carbs absorbed, resulting in significantly
less net caloric intake.
Are Carb Blockers Safe?
Yes! our Dietrine Carb Blocker is absolutely 100% safe and effective. Dietrine Carb Blocker is 100% natural with no known side
effects. There are no known interactions with any other herbal dietary
supplement or drug. Our Carb Blocker contains no ephedra,
no ma huang, no ephedrine and no stimulants of any kind
and are extremely safe if taken as directed.
Don't Be Confused By Low-Priced Imitations!
Dietrine Carb Blocker contains 100% of the genuine Phase
2 Starch Neutralizer®. Do not be fooled by cheap products that
may contain a generic white kidney bean extract plus some Phase
2. Remember you get what you pay for!!! These products may NOT contain
100% of the Phase 2® extract and will not work as well. Our
product is manufactured in the United States of America in a fully
cGMP-compliant, certified manufacturing facility. You cannot purchase
a higher quality product anywhere, and we stand behind its potency
and effectiveness 100%.
What is Phase 2?
Phase 2® is an amazing, non-stimulant, all-natural nutritional
ingredient that is derived from the white kidney bean through a proprietary
process. As a starch blocker it is the first nutritional ingredient that
has been clinically & scientifically proven to neutralize starch,
found in your favorite foods such as potatoes, breads, pasta, rice, corn
and crackers.Phase 2® is a safe yet powerful nutritional ingredient, clinically
studied to reduce the absorption of carbohydrate calories. Phase 2® allows you to enjoy those foods that you love
without all the calories.
Dietrine Carb Blocker with Phase 2® has demonstrated clinical
efficacy through several recent U.S. university-based human studies.
Dietrine Carb Blocker with Phase 2® has demonstrated safety
through LD50 studies, the gold standard test for acute and chronic
The white kidney beans used to make Phase 2® are non-GMO (genetically
modified) while the extraction process uses purified water - no solvents!!
Virtually all impurities are removed during extraction process.

Searching for an apartment in the biggest City in the country is a daunting task; whether you are new to NYC or a 12 year veteran like me, you will need thick skin to navigate this concrete jungle! Let me start with my personal experience. I am originally from Portland, OR, I moved to the Big Apple back in 1998. My first 5 months living in New York were spent living out of a hotel because I had a hard time finding a place. My original intentions were to stay at my hotel for 2 weeks, but I had to extend my stay since I grossly underestimated the difficulty of finding a decent apartment in New York. Now after 12 years and 7 moves I consider myself an expert in New York City apartment hunting and now I will share the knowledge I have accumulated over the years of searching for apartments by myself or using a broker.
So, go with the Locating Company that is going to give you the best long term deal and the home that you will be the most happy with. These type of Companies should have years of experience and contracts with almost ALL the apartment communities in your area of interest. For instance, in the Dallas Fort Worth area of Texas (DFW), there are over 3000 apartment communities. Apartment Locators in this area should have brick and mortar locations with multiple Locators onsite who are all Licensed Real Estate Agents, and familiar with DFW. Listen to these comments made by a local DFW Locator: "I give my cell phone number to each client because I want them to be able to reach me any time they need my assistance. Ive even had them call me while they were sitting in the chair at the leasing office at one of the apartments I referred them to, to ask me a question. I truly am their advocate, an expert on their side to make finding their new apartment as quick and easy and successful as possible. I work with them all the way through their move and have even assisted many people who were relocating from other states and were not able to come here in person to DFW to see the properties first. They relied on me to be their eyes and ears and select the best property for them and arrange all the paperwork so that their new place was ready and waiting when they arrived." Try getting THAT kind of service from a "free move" company website.
Rental Agencies: The most popular way to find a rental agency is through the web. The are innumerous rental agencies to choose from in the wonderful city. The great majority of vacation rentals in Rio are serious in their business, delivering what they claim. Most of them display a list of apartments they own or represent, either by neighborhoods or by number of rooms. They present up to 10 pictures of the rentals and a small description of the amenities and apartment surroundings, so you can familiarize with the region. When you are choosing the apartment, first try to identify yourself with the neighborhood you are staying in, as well as your budget. This will save you time and help in the selection process. Once you know what where you want to stay and how much you can afford, browse through the apartments list and see if there is anything you like.

Kobe – Sixty years ago this month, as the protest demonstrations raged over the ratification of the revised Japan-U.S. Security Treaty, then-Prime Minister Nobusuke Kishi argued for the dispatch of the still-relatively new Self-Defense Forces to maintain order as he was losing confidence in the National Police Agency to do so. However, Munenori Akagi, director-general of the Defense Agency, vigorously opposed it.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Akagi, who was a member of Kishi’s own faction of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party, saved Japanese democracy that day. In other words, had the military intervened, Kishi’s handling that year of the ratification process in the Diet — seen as highly undemocratic — would have been legitimized by extra-parliamentary means, his image as a “reactionary” further solidified, and the appearance of, if not actual, political use of the SDF been undertaken, much like authoritarian nations in Asia at the time.
It might seem ironic that someone who received the support of the Imperial Rule Assistance Association during his 1942 successful election bid (and was later purged during the Occupation), was a close associate of Kishi, and a veteran politician who headed the Defense Agency — the predecessor to today’s Defense Ministry — would have sought to stop the prime minister from pursuing that course, but Akagi, who had previously served as chief Cabinet secretary, had his reasons.
The security treaty demonstrations were one of the major turning points in the history of post-World War II Japan. While the new treaty cleared the Diet, it led to the postponement and subsequent cancellation of a U.S. presidential visit, and the eventual resignation of Kishi and his Cabinet.
As someone who has studied and written about the history of the SDF and worked closely with them for much of the past 25 years, I would also argue it was a turning point in its history in that the SDF was not used as a bludgeon to enforce a poorly mishandled domestic political problem. Had it been, the image of the SDF, which had officially come into being a mere six years before, could have been tarnished forever.
Kishi was becoming increasingly desperate as the demonstrations grew in numbers and intensity in mid-June (organizers put the numbers at 330,000 protesters, while police estimates were 130,000). U.S. President Dwight Eisenhower was scheduled to arrive on June 19 — the same day the treaty would pass the Upper House automatically as the chamber had not acted on it — having visited the Philippines, Taiwan and Okinawa before. Protesters prevented Eisenhower’s press secretary, appointments secretary and U.S. ambassador to Japan from departing Haneda, roughing up their vehicles (but not their persons). A U.S. Marine Corps helicopter from Hardy Barracks had to go in and evacuate them.
The Japanese government was highly embarrassed, and the U.S. government quite mad about the treatment its representatives received and the fact the police did little to protect them.
It was a few days after this on June 13 or 14 — Akagi did not remember exactly — when Kishi called him to come over to his private residence in Nanpeidai, Shibuya Ward, and asked him to consider deploying the SDF.
Akagi was expecting the request, but also fearing it. Ever since the “Hagerty Incident” at the airport, the “internal security ministers’ discussion group,” an informal gathering of Cabinet members with responsibility for crisis management, had raised the issue of using the SDF. Some of the leading figures in the party — Finance Minister Eisaku Sato (Kishi’s younger brother), and Minister of International Trade and Industry Hayato Ikeda (who later succeeded Kishi) — were actually the most vocal about it, repeatedly asking Akagi if it were possible to deploy the SDF.
Bypassing government protocol, LDP Secretary General Shojiro Kawashima secretly went to the Defense Agency (then located in Hinoki-cho, where Tokyo Midtown is today) to meet with Akagi and appeal to him as well. It was probably difficult for Akagi to refuse his fellow faction member, 14 years his senior. But he did.
During this time, Akagi had decided to provide food, accommodations and vehicles from surrounding areas to the police being mobilized from around the country. But he was dead-set against using the SDF to put down disturbances.
In his 1971 memoirs ("Ano Toki, Sono Toki"), he explained that “if the SDF were used, it would have to destroy the protests in one fell swoop. To do so, the SDF would obviously have to be heavily armed, equipped with machine guns. This would mean that Japanese were killing their fellow countrymen. This would, if anything, inflame the already bad situation. On the other hand, if I sent them out without any protection, they would be more vulnerable than the riot police. And then the public debate would be that the SDF is useless.”
There were other reasons as well. Akagi was concerned about the “politicization of the SDF,” that they were being used for political reasons. At the time, the pending Eisenhower visit was being criticized domestically and within the ruling party as Kishi’s bid to extend the life of his administration. If the SDF were used to at this time to quell the demonstrations for a visit seen in this way, it would not reflect well on the SDF, he reasoned. It is unclear if Akagi explained all this directly to Kishi when the latter made his request.
Outside his home, the protesters were chanting “Down with Kishi” and doing their snake dance, probably adding to the tension of the moment. Kishi had his arms folded as he listened to Akagi respond that he mustn’t deploy the SDF. After a few moments of silence — which seemed much longer to Akagi — Kishi quietly agreed and did not use the SDF then or when the situation worsened on the evening of June 15, when University of Tokyo student Michiko Kanba died outside the Diet.
The next day, Kishi decided to request the postponement of Eisenhower’s visit to Japan and the crisis basically came to end without the SDF having to be used against the demonstrators. As a result, the still-developing SDF was able to avoid a highly damaging situation in which it lost the support of the public and instead worked over the years to gain that respect and trust, such as assisting with the hosting of the 1964 Olympics and participating in the games, not to mention all the efforts it has made in disaster relief domestically and abroad, and peacekeeping.
Akagi, who lived until 1993, wrote later in life that he still got a cold sweat when he thought what would have happened had the SDF been used then. He was probably not the only one.

Many of us have felt sad or alone at some point. When sadness becomes too much to handle, or hangs on for a long time, it may be a sign of depression.
Depression is a medical condition that can affect our ability to work, study, interact with people or enjoy our lives. It can be caused by imbalances in brain chemistry. But it can also be triggered by things that happen to us or around us like stress, traumatic events, relationship problems or break-ups, physical illness, or lack of sleep.
Not everyone experiences depression in the same way. Depressed people may appear withdrawn and apathetic, or they may be aggressive and self-destructive. Some people may be depressed about a specific problem, while others feel deeply unhappy without knowing why. Sometimes, a depressed person may even appear “fine” to their friends and family. The common thread is an overwhelming, persistent feeling of loneliness and hopelessness.
Depression often first appears during the teenage and college years, so it’s really important to look out for the warning signs during those years. And if you’re worried that you or a friend might be struggling with depression, reach out and get help. Depression is treatable and there are ways to feel better.
Here are some symptoms of depression:
- Persistently sad, anxious, irritable or empty mood
- Loss of interest in previously enjoyable activities
- Withdrawal from friends and family
- Trouble sleeping or sleeping too much
- Fatigue and decreased energy
- Significant change in appetite and/or weight
- Overreaction to criticisms
- Feeling unable to meet expectations
- Difficulty concentrating, remembering details, and making decisions
- Feelings of worthlessness, hopelessness or guilt
- Persistent physical symptoms such as headaches, digestive problems or chronic pain that do not respond to routine treatment
- Substance abuse problems
- Thoughts of suicide or suicide attempts

Why Invest In Gold IRA Now?
A Gold IRA is a type of IRA that allows the investor to own physical gold, silver, platinum and palladium instead of paper-based assets such as cash, stocks and bonds. It was created by Congress in 1997, says Edmund C. Moy, chief strategist for Fortress Gold and former United States Mint director, who watch over the largest production of gold and silver coins in the world. If you are in a
To qualify as gold that can be held in an IRA, many condition are required. “The valuable metal coins or bars must meet IRS fineness standards and must be held by the IRA trustee in place of the IRA owner. The gold must be stored in an IRS-approved store.
Why Gold IRA?
Gold IRAs appeal to investors who want a diversified retirement portfolio. Traditional and Roth IRAs invested in stocks or mutual funds are susceptible to price rises. “Because gold prices generally move in the opposite direction of paper assets, adding a gold IRA to a retirement portfolio provides an insurance policy against price rises,” says Moy. “This balanced approach smooths out risk, especially over the long term, which makes it a smarter choice for retirement investments like IRAs.”
What is Gold Spot Price?
The spot price of gold is the most common standard used to gauge the going rate for a troy ounce of gold. The price is driven by speculation in the markets, currency values, current events and many other factors. Gold spot price is used as the basis for most bullion dealers to determine the exact price to charge for a specific coin or bar. Many factors influence the spot price of Gold. Gold prices change every few seconds and there are an unlimited number of components that play a role in the price of Gold. Some of the reasons for changes in Gold prices include:
- Current events
- Market speculation
- Currency values
- Supply and demand
- Buying power
Large units and governments typically have considerable buying power and can impact the price of Gold per ounce and the Gold market. If a government makes a large Gold purchase, their demand for the product could affect Gold markets directly. Supply and demand determines prices for commodities and the price of Gold is no exception. For investors who buy and sell Gold regularly, staying current with change in the market is vital to financial success.
What are the different types of gold bullion?
Gold bullion is available in the form of coins, rounds, and bars. Gold coins are different from the other two choices in that they are produced only by government issues and carry a face value in their country of origin. Many countries throughout the world produce their own gold coins of a wide range of designs and sizes. Gold bars are produced by private mint and are usually found in a wider selection of sizes than that of coins.
If you by now have an IRA or 401(k), either regular or Roth, you have the option of rolling over some or all of your investment into a gold IRA. With 401(k)s, rollovers usually are permitted when you change jobs (and have to decide what to do with retirement money at the employer you are leaving) or when you retire. With an IRA, you can switch to a different guardian more freely.
Contributing for a spouse
A Traditional IRA contribution is fully deductible if your income is under a definite level or if you (or your partner) don’t have an employer-sponsored retirement plan. If you (or your partner) do have a 401(k) or pension plan, the tax-deductible portion of your IRA contribution may be limited. While you can contribute to an IRA for a partner who isn’t working (as long as you file a joint tax return), the total contribution for both you and your spouse can’t go beyond your joint taxable income or double the annual IRA limit, whichever is less.
Physical IRA Ownership of Precious Metal Coins and Bullion
The Internal Revenue Code allows IRAs to own firm gold, silver and platinum coins, as well as gold, silver, platinum and palladium bullion that meet applicable fineness standards. For example, an IRA can own American Gold Eagle coins, Canadian Gold Maple Leaf coins, American Silver Eagle coins, American Platinum Eagle coins and gold and silver bars (bullion) that are 99.9% pure or better. Some well-known gold coins, including the South African Krugerrand, are off limits, as are bullion bars that are not satisfactorily pure. The coins or bullion must be held by the IRA trustee rather than the IRA owner. In other words, you can’t have your IRA buy coins or bullion and store them in your safe deposit box or secrete them in your backyard. These tax rules apply equally to traditional IRAs, Roth IRAs, simplified employee pension (SEP) accounts and Simple-IRAs. No problems so far.
The big issue with IRA ownership of valuable metal assets is finding a trustee that is ready to set up a self-directed IRA, handle the transfer of funds to the valuable metals dealer and make easy the physical transfer and storage of the coins or bullion. None of the major brokerage firms are willing to play, leaving only a handful of outfits in the game, including Regal Assets.
We have a recommendation for you and a set of question you should ask before hiring a Gold IRA company. The 3 top complaints of all metal companies are:
- Taken in by a fast” operator. Many people go away from companies that base their sales on a commission. That means they aren’t really looking out for you and your investment.
- Aggressive sales tactics lose more sales. Many people complain about the sales policy of companies that call and disturb you every day of the week. They are working for a commission and aren’t that concerned about your investment, which may be your entire life savings. They just want their commission.
- Precious metal companies set big store in profit margins. Again, they aren’t interested in your investment or rather they are, but only if you can increase theirbottom line.
Why Regal Assets over any other company?
Why should you choose Regal Assets over other companies? Four main reasons, experience, buy back agenda, planetary reviews, and asset preservation.
- For the target customers of IRA guardian such as Regal Assets, experience in handling IRAs is most important consideration since these entities would be handling funds that will support them in their retirement years. Regal Assets preservation is sensibly the other important anxiety. Given the continued volatility of the financial markets, safe place that ensure asset preservation are what most, if not all future retirees want.
- When purchasing valuable metals for your retirement plan, it is important that you have the ability to quickly pay a debt your metals when you need access to your capital. Regal Asset checks all of the boxes in this area, as they won’t charge you additional fees like other guardian do when you try to sale back your metals. They want you give profit as much as possible, so they will buy back your metals at the current spot price of that metal. Is this something that is very unusual in this industry and something that you should take advantage of.
- The thing you love about Regal Asset is they really care about their clients. They currently have some of the highest ratings and reviews in the entire valuable metals industry. They even beat out companies that have been in the industry for over 23 years. Testimonials giving by other customers are very important and something that you should spend some time researching before setting up a gold IRA account with any company.
- It is clear that Regal Assets checks all the boxes as far as these considerations are worried. They have the longest experience in the field of gold IRA’s and gold IS the ultimate safe place. On the basis of the requirements presented above, Regal Assets is in fact the only choice for those who wish to move their IRAs into gold.
Regal are found in Burbank, California and have been in business since 2003. They have an excellent reputation for customer service and feature favorably and significantly in most third party gold company reviews. They specialize in offering services to private investors looking to invest in valuable metals.
Regal have a dedicated Retirement Department for those clients looking for transfer or rollover their existing retirement plans into a Gold IRA and their experts have popularity for understanding all the procedures and tax advantages associated with any type of physical Precious Metals IRA.
You can deal with precious metals by rolling over your IRA or 401k to a gold or silver IRA account. However, most people are too worried about their assets including their portfolio to expand into gold or silver. They just haven’t found the right company to work with and that is why most people don’t work with their IRA accounts. Finding the right IRA company to work with takes a little time and effort to find.
Contribution Limits Unchanged
The total amount you can contribute to either a Roth IRA or a Traditional IRA remains unchanged at $5,500. People 50 and over can contribute an additional $1,000 for a total of $6,500.
Income Limits Bumped Up $1,000
You can only contribute to a Roth IRA, however, if your income is below a certain entry. For single filers in 2016, that income threshold starts at $117,000 (up from $116,000) and ends at $133,000 (up from $132,000). In that range, your contribution is limited, finally reaching zero. For married filers in 2016, that income threshold starts at $184,000 (up from $183,000) and ends at $194,000 (up from $193,000).
Reasons for investing in a gold IRA
Whilst the information provided here should help you decide if you want turn over into a gold IRA or not, it is not given as a recommendation and you should take professional advice so that you can make an informed decision based on your employment, financial and tax status as an individual.
The normal warning applies that past performance is no guide to future performance but at least by looking at how you might have charge with a gold IRA investment taken out in the past, you can at least get some feel for whether there is good possible to boost your investment portfolio.
If you had invested $20,000 into a typical gold IRA back in 2001, the value of that holding would have grown to over $160,000 by 2013. The figure was actually higher at some points in the intervening years and highlights the fact that investing in gold and investing in general, tends to reward those with patience.
This is maybe one reason why a gold IRA could be a useful part of your retirement investment strategy.
That’s why we recommend Regal Assets for the company to use for your investment. They will hold your hand through the whole process as their reputation is golden. Their testimonials prove they are an outstanding company. They care about you and your investment, not their bottom line.

If you don’t want to keep the gold by yourself or don’t have any bank locker, you can also ask for recommended keeper that are the professional gold keeping companies that will keep your investment in a safe place.
Financial leverage is the skill to trade and manage a high market value product with a part of the total value. Trading futures contracts is done with performance margin.
For example, one futures contract for gold controls 100 troy ounces, or one brick of gold. The total value of this contract is 100 times the market price for one ounce of gold. If the market is trading at $600 per ounce, the value of the contract is $70,000 ($700 x 100 ounces). Based on exchange margin rules, the margin required to control one contract is only $4,050. So for $4,050, one can control $70,000 worth of gold. As an investor, this gives you the ability to use $1 to control roughly $15.
Major Gold Investors
Gold has fallen roughly 47% from the highs it reached less than five years ago. It’s been a painful drop that’s made some market watchers question the value of gold to investors. But not every investor is willing to say, “This time is different.” Here are some of the billionaires bucking the trend with contrarian bets that gold will be going up again.
John Paulson: Billionaire hedge fund manager John Paulson, one of the world’s most powerful gold investors, Paulson, in his first public comments since the recent price crash, said his firm, Paulson & Co. Inc., has retained a 10 million share bet now worth more than$1 billion, in SPDR Gold Trust, which track the price of gold.
“I think gold is fairly valued today,” Paulson said in an interview, adding that the market was starting to balance.
“As Western demand for gold falls because the fear of price rise is low, demand out of Asia continues to grow for it as a store of value and for use in jewelry,” he said.
Thomas Kaplan: Prominent metals investor Thomas Kaplan increased $200 million, more than expected, from investors excited to join him in making achievement in an industry starved for cash. Kaplan, an Oxford-educated historian turned metals expert with a long track record of success, is betting that he and his team can spot an unloved company to buy and help it grow again as demand in the sector improves.
Eric Mindich whose gold investment already has gone above $800 million is aware that gold has always increased in value over time and doesn’t see that trend changing.
Mikhail Prokhorov with above $6 billion investment in gold already is concerned at the amount of money being printed and anticipates inflation driving up worldwide demand for raw materials including gold.
David Einhorn who has a net value of $560 million favors gold because it’s a form of money that the government can’t print more of.
Seth Klarman who has over $1 billion invested in gold warns of possible currency debasement and soaring inflation and the need to hedge your assets with gold.
Jim Rogers whose net worth goes above $300 million believes that investing in gold will become more and more important over the next decade.
Paul Tudor Jones whose net worth is $3.3 billion admits to not being a keen gold lover but in spite of that believes that now is the time to invest in gold.
Michael Avery who has $3.3 billion invested in the Waddell & Reed gold fund believes that history has proved to us that gold is the asset to turn to in times of economic insecurity.

It has been clear for years that antidepressants barely outperform sugar pills, at least in the artificial environment of the double blind, placebo controlled study. It is also clear that most psychiatrists in the trenches are perplexed by these results, because in our practices we appear to see people responding very robustly to antidepressants--including those with only mild to moderate symptoms. So what gives?
I presented a hypothetical patient who became depressed because of financial woes, who saw a psychiatrist, received a prescription for Zoloft and Klonopin, and got better. Some commenters wondered why the patient was given medication rather than therapy. My answer is simply that in modern psychiatry, such a patient is more likely to be given meds, even though therapy may be just as effective. The reasons for this are complex, but have to do with how psychiatrists are trained (primarily, they are taught how to prescribe medications), how insurance companies reimburse (they pay twice as much for an hour's worth of medication visits than for an hour of therapy), and what patients want (many prefer the quick fix of medications over multiple therapy visits). I personally believe that psychiatrists should incorporate more therapy into their practices, but the current state of the field is as outlined above.
Anyway, I then considered what would happen if the same patient got enrolled in a randomized, placebo-controlled trial of an antidepressant. Once accepted, he is told that he will be randomly assigned to either active medication or placebo.
Let's assume that our patient lucks out and gets assigned to the latest SSRI, "Newexa," and let's further assume that Newexa works as well as all other SSRIs (like Zoloft or Lexapro). One would assume that since our patient is assigned to a drug that works as well as Zoloft, he stands the same chance of improvement. But not so.
When patients are enrolled in preliminary "open label" studies, in which everybody is given the active drug, and there is no blinding, the response rates are in the 70-80% range. But when patients are given the same drug in the context of a placebo-controlled trial, the response rates plummet to the 40-50% range. The reason for this is that if you strongly believe that you are taking an effective treatment, this confidence in itself boosts the effects of the drug. On the other hand, if you know that there is a 50% chance that you are taking a sugar pill, you have less confidence in the chances of a recovery. Essentially, by not telling patients what they are taking, researchers are turning down the volume of the placebo effect. But when I see a patient in my office, I do just the opposite. I try to maximize the placebo effect. I say things like, "I've had great success with Zoloft in patients like you....I would say you have an 80-90% chance of feeling much better within the next 2 weeks....These drugs are remarkably effective...."
So this is the crux of the issue. Response rates are always lower in randomized controlled trials than they are in the real world of the office, where our patients know exactly what they are taking. Thus, when I read about the measly outcome results of antidepressants in these trials, I take it with a big grain of salt. I interpret it in light of many other studies that have indeed shown antidepressants to be more effective than placebo in conditions as diverse as severe depression, anxiety disorders, and eating disorders. Rather than concluding that these meds don't work, I conclude that they do work, but that there is a large placebo component.
In the best of all worlds, we would be allowed to prescribe sugar pills to patients, and we would presumably get a robust response without many side effects. This is considered unethical by the AMA.
The bottom line is that while medicine could not survive without placebo-controlled trials, they are rarely generalizable to the real world. I view their results more as signals of efficacy rather than as definitive answers.

For tax purposes, each person in the U.S. economy is either an employee or an independent contractor. The basic concept is that an employee works for someone else, while an independent contractor runs their own business, but the distinction is not always clear. However, the difference is critical because independent contractors do not receive the same benefits and rights as employees. Employers thus have an incentive to classify an individual as an independent contractor whenever possible, which means that employees are often misclassified as independent contractors. As a result, taxing authorities at the federal and state levels miss out on many payroll taxes that they should receive.
The IRS devotes substantial efforts to identifying misclassification of employees. A business that is found to have misclassified an employee may be required to pay the employment taxes that should have been due, in addition to penalties. In deciding whether a worker is misclassified, the IRS will consider whether the business has the right to direct and control the worker. This means that the business can dictate not only the final product but also the manner in which the work is completed. If it can, that person is an employee. If the business does not have the authority to control how the worker does the job, that person is an independent contractor. It is important to be aware that the test considers authority to control, rather than actual control. Even if the business does not actually tell a worker how to do the job, the worker is an employee if the business has the right to tell the worker how to do the job.
Factors in the Right to Control Test
The IRS will consider circumstantial evidence in determining whether an employee has been misclassified. It divides aspects of control into behavioral control, financial control, and the relationship between the business and the worker. Behavioral control means that the business trains the worker and gives them instructions for how to complete the job. Financial control means that the business provides the tools, equipment, and physical space for doing the job, the worker does not advertise their individual services to the public, the worker is paid for their time rather than the result, and the business covers expenses related to the job.
The last factor involves considering whether the worker receives employee benefits, whether they can be fired or resign at any time, whether their work is closely tied to the standard products or services offered by the business, and whether they have a client agreement with the business. In many cases, some of these factors will point toward classifying a worker as an employee, while others will point toward classifying a worker as an independent contractor. If you are in doubt, you may want to consult a lawyer or a tax professional so that you do not fail to pay employee taxes and find your business burdened with back taxes and penalties. For situations in which there is no clear answer, the safer course of action is always to assume that a worker is an employee.

Radiators stay cold
While cold radiators could be a result of a more serious problem with your central heating system or boiler, there are a number of smaller faults that should be ruled out first.
The thermostat’s set too low
Check that the thermostats in your rooms and on the boiler are set correctly. Your manufacturer’s manual will provide details on the correct settings.
The timer or programmer isn’t working
Check that the timer or programmer is switched on and set correctly. Your manufacturer’s manual will provide details on the correct settings.
The gas boiler’s pilot light’s out
If you find that the gas boiler’s pilot light has gone out consult the relighting instructions that can usually be found printed on the back of the boiler’s front panel.
There’s a build-up of rust and sludge
If you suspect that there’s been a build-up of rust or sludge in your radiators there are two ways to remove it, depending on the type of system you have:
- For open-vent systems
For heating systems that are conventional, un-pressurised and tank fed, you can use a heating system sludge remover.
Available from most DIY stores, simply add the liquid to the feed and expansion tank and, after a few days, empty and refill the system.
- For non-open vent systems
If you don’t have an open vent system, you’ll need to flush your radiators with a hosepipe. Your manufacturer’s manual will provide further information on how to do this correctly.
There are air pockets in the system
To remove any air that’s become trapped within your central heating system, bleed your radiators

Bus lines don’t have the power to transform neighborhoods that rail construction possesses. But buses are by far the cheapest and simplest way of adding mass transit, and municipal leaders should always have their eyes on potential ways to improve things. One possibility that naturally suggests itself is to let entrepreneurs start private intracity bus lines just as we have inter-city buses running from New York to DC, Philadelphia, Boston, etc.
Unlike the barbering field I would want to see regulation of this kind of activity since there are genuine public safety issues and it would be useful to consumers to impose some kind of uniformity so that buses are recognizable, have interoperable farecards, etc. New York City features sufficient demand for this kind of thing that the local authorities sporadically find themselves doing “dollar van” crackdowns. I’m not sure real market opportunities for this kind of thing would exist anyplace else, but it would probably be worth other cities’ while to try to find out. Ultimately, instead of a publicly-operated and publicly-subsidized set of bus lines, you could have a set of competing private bus companies with government subsidies provided directly to the consumer.
Or it could even work without subsidies! In any case, breaking the government monopoly on mass transit is a good idea. And so is doing away with a lot of the taxi cab restrictions in municipalities. GPS and smart phones would seem to open up better ride-sharing possibilities too -- the drivers could even be compensated (which would be illegal under current law in, e.g., Los Angeles).

Recorded between London and Manchester almost 30 years ago (September/October 1983), This Charming Man was the record that transported The Smiths up and out of the late-night, Peel-championed margins and into the mainstream, Top Of The Pops and all.
A giddy rush of walkin’ talkin’ Motown basslines and chiming staccato guitar riffs, topped off with Morrissey’s yelping yodel, it still sounds exhilarating to these ears as I type right now. Even the much-maligned New York Mix, with its none-more-80s ricocheting rim shots and ghostly guitar fade-ins still does it.
The Top Of The Pops appearance (the band’s first of 11) a few months later in November was superb, with Morrissey battering about his oversized bunch of gladioli in a show of high camp, while the other 3 played like seasoned telly regulars in matching M&S polo necks. Save a select, hip few, this was the first time many folk had actually seen The Smiths and the effect was seismic. It’s no surprise that by that weekend, sales of Brylcreem had risen 110%, old men’s barbers up and down the country were queued out with boys wanting flat tops, “but just leave the front bit, thanks” and any number of grannies were wondering what had happened to that nice chiffon blouse they’d been keeping in their wardrobe for that special occasion. Your David’s wearing it, gran. Teamed up with that cheap glass-beaded necklace our Doreen gave you when she was eight. And he’s off to the Red Lion where there’s every chance he’ll get himself half a light ale and a right good kicking. Me? I was still in my bedroom, listening to Frankie’s Relax until the wee small hours.
Much has been made of the speed at which Morrissey and Marr wrote in the early days. This Charming Man was one such song. Johnny had heard Aztec Camera’s Walk Out To Winter on regular radio rotation and felt his band should be getting the same attention. With a John Peel session coming up (14th September, to be aired one week later), Marr pulled out all the stops to write a catchy, radio-friendly tune in a major key (G, if you’re asking, though really A, as he tuned his guitar up one whole step). According to Johnny, the tune took him all of 20 minutes to write, although he would spend far longer with producer John Porter to perfect the sonics in the studio.
“There are about 15 tracks of guitar. People thought the main guitar part was a Rickenbacker, but it’s really a ’54 Tele. There are three tracks of acoustic, a backwards guitar with a really long reverb, and the effect of dropping knives on the guitar — that comes in at the end of the chorus.”
Listen for that wobbly doiiiinnnngg every now and again – that’s the two Johns (Porter and Marr) dropping kitchen knives on an open-tuned guitar. You can’t do that with GarageBand, kids.
Morrissey, on the other hand, was studio shy. He often had to be coaxed into doing more than one or two vocal takes. His lyrics for This Charming Man were impossibly impenetrable to this 13 year old, and to be honest, not much has really changed over the past 30 years. Singing about some sort of clandestine sexual initiation or other, Morrissey’s words were “just a collection of lines that were very important. They seemed to stitch themselves perfectly under the umbrella of This Charming Man.” The lyrics were almost certainly taken from Morrissey’s faithful notebook, his collection of words in search of a tune, but they weren’t entirely Morrissey’s own.
The 1972 film Sleuth, starring Michael Caine and Laurence Olivier features a scene where Olivier points a gun at Caine calling him ‘a jumped up pantry boy who doesn’t know his place‘.
The 1961 movie adaption of Shelagh Delaney’s A Taste Of Honey features two characters discussing their evening. ‘Are you going dancing tonight?’ ‘I can’t, I haven’t got any clothes to wear.’ Delaney would prove to be a rich source of material for Morrissey’s lyrics. But more of that another time.
Stolen words or otherwise, what’s undeniable is that This Charming Man ramped The Smiths up a notch or two and set them off on their all-too brief trail-blazing journey through the mid 80s.
Here’s the music:
This Charming Man (London mix)
This Charming Man (Manchester Mix)
This Charming Man (New York Vocal Mix)
Howsabout some more of those studio master tape tracks? Below you’ll find the bass, the guitar, the vocal and a guitar/percussion track. Isolated parts, perfect for your inner George Martin. Or indeed, inner John Porter.

Somatic Therapy can help clients suffering from trauma such as death of a loved one. Can be due to accidents or result of personal trauma.
For some this may go back to previous lives or early childhood. People who have suffered mentally physically and emotionally often suffer from hormonal imbalance. Can also manifest as digestive issues, sexual dysfunction and a wide range of personal relationship issues.
Our bodies hold on to past traumas that are reflected in our word patterns . Word patterns show up in brilliant or inappropriate life choices.
Somatic Therapy works in harmony with body and mind connection. The mind affects the body. The body influences how the mind functions. There are different approaches to somatic therapy. While many if not most of the therapists focus on taking the patient through traumatic experiences. We choose to direct the patient beyond the trauma. This lays the foundation of higher expectation. In this state the body sees through self-deception and no longer follows the path of pain.
What we aim for is authentic self expression free of past traumas that the may have been trapped within.
Our aim is to access “tacit Knowing” that is knowledge that is not initially definable. This is due to to brand new information and wisdom hidden within our own body. Best way to access this is through shared experience between yourself and the therapist. An experienced therapist can walk the walk with you so you can begin to integrate your new knowing into your life. This is beyond intellectual knowledge. This knowledge comes through cellular intelligence.
For this knowledge to be expressed, there needs to be interaction between the known and the unknown. This way the unknown can be expressed physically. Therefore it becomes reality in our current life.
Programmed knowledge is what we receive at school and social interaction. That when relied upon become automatic and robotic leading to dissociation from true self.
There is the original self and the socially programmed self. The gap divides people because everyone receives it at the level of their own dissociation. Transforming inner knowledge into the known or the physical reality takes us beyond somatic therapy into living from inside out. Bringing the inner world into the outer reality.
This makes you more authentic and definitely unique. In that place we create new possibilities that may lead to better relationships and even financial success.

Overnight we've been witnessing a malware campaign from our old friend Blackhole. Remember that guy? He used to sit at the back of the class, looking over your shoulder trying to steal answers off of your tests and homework right before the teacher would take them up? Yeah, him. No one liked him then, and no one likes him now, as he's graduated to much more lascivious behavior. Now he's after your bank accounts. Looking over your shoulder once again while your doing your banking and logging your keystrokes, capturing your account information and passwords.
This particular campaign is mimicking emails from Classmates.com, welcoming recipients to the club. They're well put together with proper graphics and fake account details. It also provides a number of links each of which appear to go to various helpful places at the actual Classmates.com site, though none of them do.

I am shocked, frightened and crushed that leaving a friend’s house can be so misconstrued to turn my whole life upside down. I can’t believe that people and the media will go to such great lengths to create a completely fabricated story to boost ratings. Meanwhile I wake up with anxiety afraid to answer the front door or my phone because it many mean having to respond to more false reports about me. I do not deserve the derogatory comments about me, which are degrading, humiliating and hurtful. I am glad to have this opportunity to tell the world the truth, and I hope that no one else will have to be the victim as I have been of pure nonsense and made-up tabloid drama.

Some things you can see with your own eyes, like her smile from across the room, that bolt of lightning in the dark western sky. Or you hear thunder like a drum, rain on the nylon tent, or smell the fresh-cut grass, or taste the sweet pinch of orange marmalade. Your senses tell you so.
Like that time years ago, standing in my front yard, when a pickup truck screeched to a halt in the middle of the street, and a guy got out, wielding a rifle, and ran to the door of the house across the street, yelling, threatening to shoot, while I ducked behind a tree and watched until the heated argument raged then subsided, the hooligan bolting, squealing off again.
It was a green pickup. My next-door neighbor swore it was red. “Plain as day. Seen it for myself.”
The pickup was green. I swear.
Some things we learn from books, some we see on TV, or read on the internet. Social media, neighborhood gossip. We take someone else’s word for it. Things our parents told us. Or Fox News. The New York Times.
Just to make sure, we often turn to experts — those with the education, knowledge and experience, the ones who have performed the studies, done the calculations, reviewed the data. There’s so much we just can’t know ourselves. We defer to those who know, the ones who are smarter than us, better informed. Their credentials and authority beseech our trust.
Sometimes we want to know for sure. We apply the scientific method. Look for empirical evidence. Diligently seek the observable, measurable, quantifiable. Then we will know. Undeniably, unassailably. A path to truth we have long followed religiously. Scientists as the arbiters of what is and what is not, armed with their rigor and objectivity. Even when they tell us that 85 percent of the matter in the universe is dark matter, not because it can be touched, seen, detected, but because of its effect on objects that can be observed directly. The wind is like that. Some people say God is like that.
I have long been interested in ways of knowing, having become familiar with people and cultures that see things differently, who speak of phenomena that elude our perceptions and intellections, our microscopes and measuring sticks. Many of these same people knew far more than we do today of the world in which we live — of stars and seasons, plant life and the ways of the earth. They, too, were experts, schooled in the living arts. Ignorant in many other ways. A very human story.
How do I know? How do I know? Because it is my story, too, as I have pursued the seen and unseen, probed the evidence, examined the caprice of evasive truths. Questions unresolved. Sometimes I turn to the wise for guidance, to scouts who have gone before, to the holy seekers who have found places of rest along the human journey.
Along the way, more questions raise their hands. Is intuition a legitimate way of knowing? How does the subconscious know stuff that our conscious mind does not? How does the imagination hold the secrets it reveals in the act of artistic creation? Is it possible to know with the heart? And what does that mean, that the heart knows? What did Blaise Pascal mean when he said, “The heart has its reasons, which reason does not know”?
Is belief a way of knowing? Faith? Is it possible to understand the realm of faith without first believing? Or to understand believing without the faith necessary to get there?
How is it that there are some things we just know? Because there are, you know.

Getting involved and talking about health
Embracing the concept of ‘no decision about me, without me,’ we aim to have open, honest, two-way conversations; at the right time with our member practices, stakeholder organisations, the public, patients and carers so they can share experiences with us and help to shape decisions about healthcare services.
We have created several approaches to create these conversations. These are:
The NHS belongs to the people: a Call to Action helps us to deliver our work. Working with local authorities and public health, we will take the lead in developing conversations and solutions that belong to and are owned by local people.
Meaningful public engagement exercises are helping to develop healthcare that delivers the type of services that the local community tell us they want. This co-production approach to develop our engagement strategy ensures we represent the voice of all of our stakeholders.
- Share your views and experiences
- Find our more about our public engagement
- Attend one of our Governing Body meetings
How to contact us and have your say:

I am back to work on my Oregon beach/glass float quilt today. Since I am experimenting, and making a lot of this up as I go, I thought I'd share the process. I am trying to figure out how to make sea foam, using cheesecloth as the base fabric.
Here is my piece of stiffened cheesecloth—see yesterday's post if you don't know what I'm referring to. It is about the stiffness of a sheet of typing paper. I used some Solvy stabilizer dissolved in water to stiffen it.
I set my sewing machine up for free-motion stitching and started stitching little attached circles until I got a nice shape that looked like sea foam washing up on the beach. Then I cut it out and let it soak in some warm water to wash the stabilizer out of it.
Here is what a small piece, washed and ironed, looks like against the float and sand-colored background fabric. It seems to shrink a bit and since not quite all of the stabilizer washes out, it irons up quite crisp, which I think will be an advantage when I am ready to stitch it down. Yes! I think this is going to work. The finished stuff looks quite a lot like lace. I can see that one could use this technique for a variety of interesting effects.
Here's a bigger piece.
Now I need to figure out what kind of pattern/texture I want for the sand. Here's an experiment on a scrap of the fabric I'm using.

Mattel Masters of the Universe Classics Castle Grayskull Playset at SDCC 2013
Thursday, July 18th, 2013 by Pixel Dan
From San Diego Comic Con 2013, here’s an up close look at the upcoming Castle Grayskull playset. This is the near-final piece. Not yet plastic, but a lot more “finished” that the very early prototype shown at New York toy Fair.

Wine Country has an amazing and diverse food scene. From formal to casual and everything in-between, there are a host of incredible dining options throughout the region. It’s rare to find a new venue which is truly unique to the area; Brewsters Beer Garden is that rare find.
Located in the Historic District of Downtown Petaluma, Brewsters Beer Garden was built for people who want more than just a good meal when they eat, they want a dining experience which offers a laid back and kid-friendly environment. This open-air dining restaurant, whose cuisine is focused on technique-driven dishes influenced by Southern Carolina BBQ and a smattering of locally sourced and sustainably-raised Petaluma producers and ranchers, doesn’t disappoint and is truly a fun and memorable dining experience. You can even bring Fido, as Brewsters is a dog-friendly restaurant. It’s a great location for the new restaurant, as Petaluma is the center of the Craft Beer craze in Sonoma County.
Offering a seating capacity over 350, this new dining hotspot is the perfect balance of food and ambiance, as guests are treated to outdoor and covered seating in a historic setting, with the comforts of large heat lamps, fire pit, bocce court, children’s playground and live music stage. To complement this unique dining experience, they offer an array of over 30 revolving local craft beers on draft, Sonoma and Napa Valley wine, and a full selection of spirits and cocktails.
Menus changes daily but you can get an idea what they are serving up by perusing their menus here. Here is a quick glimpse of some of their menu items. From their Rotisserie and BBQ menu: 1/2 Smoked Chicken, Chopped Hog and Brisket. Feeling hungry? Try an item from their Large Plate menu; the King Salmon, with succotash and hollandaise or the Fried Chicken, with buttermilk biscuits, country gravy and swiss chard both sound delicious. They also have small menu items, sandwiches, salads and a kid’s menu. Brewsters is open T-FRI 5pm-close / S + S 11:00am-close.
Although Brewsters is relatively new to the Wine Country food scene, the reviews are coming in and people like what they are serving up in Petaluma. Take a look at the following reviews from their Facebook Page:
This place is beautiful! Constructed perfectly with class! You are outdoors but it is comfortably heated complete with a gorgeous fire pit! Nice band and dance area. Fun play area for little ones and a Bocce court. The kitchen is open and quite large. I was amazed by the beauty and comfort. The owners are very sweet and proud as they should be! I wish you nothing but success. – Sue Beavers
Warm friendly staff, to go along with the surprisingly warm heaters made for a lovely December evening. Food was top notch, ribs were so very good, desserts were incredible. Goat cheesecake, and buttermilk pie were enjoyed by all. We are excited to have such an exceptional outdoor dining establishment in Petaluma and look forward to our next visit!! – Berkley Sturgeon
Awesome space with a comfortable industrial vibe; great fit for downtown Petaluma. Kids’ play area, bocce ball court; dog friendly – excellent food, great bar. Winner! – Cyn Cady
So next time you find yourself in Downtown Petaluma, stop by Brewsters Beer Garden for a great time and delicious meal too.

“Spanking and the Gang”
Click on the following link to David Hockney’s 1971 painting “Portrait of an Artist (Pool with Two Figures)” and imagine what’s on the side from which you're observing. That’s apparently what Matt Saunders did when creating his distinctive set for Jeremy O. Harris’s ambitious but overlong, overstuffed “Daddy”: A Melodrama, a co-production of the New Group and the Vineyard Theater.
|Ronald Peet. Photo: Matt Saunders.|
The home belongs to a wealthy, white, middle-aged, physically fit, homosexual art collector named Andre, well cast with uber-charming Scottish star Alan Cumming (using a British accent), whose latest acquisition is a talented, young, black artist named Franklin (Ronald Peet). He’s not only supporting the struggling artist—including gifts, clothes, and drugs—but has taken him as a live-in lover. Andre, we’ll discover, has certain traits that remind Franklin of his long-absent father. These have so strong an unconscious effect that Franklin begins calling Andre “Daddy,” which, of course, also alludes to their sugar daddy arrangement.
It’s an arrangement that doesn’t sit well with Franklin’s visiting mother, Zora (Charlayne Woodard, bringing a tough role to life), a formidable, Bible-spouting Baptist, who decries the godlessness in Franklin’s new life style. She also sees the similarity of Andre (whom she calls Methuselah) to Franklin’s father; her dismissal of that man as an “ugly-ass nigga” apparently had a profound effect on their overhearing boy. This precipitates the main conflict, and is probably the reason for Harris’s calling the play a “melodrama,” as she engages with Andre in, I’m afraid, a rather unmelodramatic contest for Franklin’s heart and soul.
|Ronald Peet, Charlayne Woodard. Photo: Matt Saunders.|
Harris, a rising young playwright whose controversial Slave Play raised eyebrows earlier in the season at the New York Theatre Workshop, touches again on racial issues (especially in a speech by Zora on why black fathers abandon their kids), but it mostly ignores the implications of the Andre and Franklin affair.
Harris seems more interested in other themes, such as interrogating, with a soupcon of satire, the commercial art scene, via discussions about the patronage, taste, and the purpose of art. What pertinent points there are, though, get buried in fatuous, name-dropping blather. Then, of course, there are the psycho-sexual issues plaguing Franklin, who regresses to a thumb-sucking child, acting out his demons by manipulating large, puppet-like, soft-sculptures of himself, Andre, and Zora.
|Kayhun Kim, Tommy Dorfman. Photo: Matt Saunders.|
Adding local color, sometimes comic, are Franklin’s insipid, nonblack, well-acted friends, Bellamy (Kahyun Kim) and Max (Tommy Dorfman), excited by his newfound luxuries (those Gucci shades!) yet borderline troubled by its implications. They chatter in fluent Valley Girl, scattering “likes” as if they were conversational dandruff. Similarly vapid is Alessia (Hari Nef, over-the-top), the easily excitable gallery owner showing Franklin’s art.
|Alan Cumming, Kayhun Kim, Tommy Dorfman. Photo: Matt Saunders.|
Finally, there’s a choir of black gospel singers (Carrie Compere, Denise Manning, and Onyie Nwachukwu) who traipse through the action, using their beautiful harmonies for background purposes or to support Zora’s singing, and otherwise serving as visible or invisible witnesses, as need be, to the proceedings. (Lee Kinney did the original score.)
|Kayhun Kim, Charlayne Woodard, Alan Cumming, Tommy Dorfman. Photo: Matt Saunders.|
“Daddy,” vividly staged by Danya Taymor, plays out in three acts lasting nearly two hours and 50 minutes, many of those minutes unnecessary and requiring patience to sit them out. The play’s cerebral ambiguities, including the various symbolic functions all that water and the references to it are meant to represent, help make its vague reflections on queerness, blackness, art, and parental love seem more significant than they are.
|Alan Cumming, Onyie Nwachukwu, Denise Manning, Ronald Peet, Charlayne Woodard. Photo: Matt Saunders.|
Plenty meets the eye and ear but much of it seems a coverup for playwriting blandness. Thus we have language veering from naturalistic to hip-speak to academic to poetic; full frontal male nudity (Peet and Cumming), male-male canoodling, and a barrage of bare-assed spanking; ominous moods created by Isabella Byrd’s lighting and Lee Kinney’s sound design (with puzzling occurrences of an iPhone ringtone); and super-chic attire by Montana Levi Blanco (you won’t forget Bellamy’s sunhat, wide enough for a flying nun).
There also are bizarre surrealistic infusions, like the songs performed in the pool by fully dressed actors holding hand-held mics, one a Gospel number featuring Zora and the choir, the other George Michaels’s “Father Figure,” featuring Andre and the choir.
Jeremy O. Harris will continue writing difficult, provocative plays and both critics and audiences will continue to debate their merits. Hopefully, they’ll provide deeper pools to jump into than “Daddy.”

US and Israel Near a Deal on David’s Sling Missile Defense Shield
JNS.org – Israel and the United States are close to reaching an agreement on the co-production of the David’s Sling missile defense shield system.
U.S. Navy Vice Admiral James Syring, director of the Missile Defense Agency, told U.S. lawmakers on Thursday that negotiations with Israel continue on the deal and the system is expected to be operational next year following a series of successful intercept tests last April, Reuters reported.
David’s Sling was designed by Israel’s Rafael Advanced Defense Systems along with the U.S. defense firm Raytheon, and is designed to defend against medium-to-long range rockets and missiles from 63-125 miles. It will fill the gap between Israel’s short-range Iron Dome and Arrow ballistic missile interceptor systems, which are already in service.
The announcement comes as the U.S. is attempting to assuage fears among regional allies of Iran’s ballistic missile threat, following failed efforts to stop the nuclear deal in Congress.
“There is no doubt in my mind that Iran’s ballistic missile activities continue to pose a risk to the United States and our allies and partners in Europe, Israel, and the Gulf,” Robert Scher, assistant defense secretary for strategy, plans, and capabilities, told U.S. lawmakers Thursday, Reuters reported.
Scher said the U.S. would continue to push for cooperative missile defense programs among allies in the Middle East since the nuclear deal did not cover Iran’s work on ballistic missiles.

- Alternative Name(s): Button
Badge featuring the profile of US tennis player Billy Jean King with the inscription '"We All Make Mistakes" / Wimbledon Dance / July 1981'. Tennis player Billie Jean King became the first high-profile US athlete to come out as a lesbian in 1981 when she revealed her relationship with Marilyn Barnett. The revelation cost her a fortune in endorsements. She said at the time that the long-term affair had been a 'mistake', angering lesbians and gays. She was supported by her husband in a financial claim mounted by Marilyn, but they later divorced, and Billie said that the term 'mistake' had referred to being unfaithful rather than to being a lesbian.
The dance was held at Storey Hall, 348 Swanston Street, Melbourne, on 17 July 1981. The Stray Dags (Wimmins Band from Sydney) and the Kevins appeared.

Noll selects 2012 grad Dodson as basketball coach
John Dodson III, a member of Bishop Noll Institute’s 2011 state finalist basketball team and member of the 2016 Benedictine University NCAA Division III national runner-up team, has been named BNI’s head boys basketball coach, Athletic Director Eric Roldan announced today.
Dodson served the past two seasons as assistant coach at NCAA Division III Milwaukee School of Engineering and worked as a Milwaukee-based account executive for a national logistics company. He graduated in 2016 from Benedictine in Lisle, Ill., with a bachelor’s degree in business administration and marketing, earning dean’s list status as a junior and senior with a 3.5 grade-point average.
“I am excited for this opportunity,” Dodson said. “Having the chance to give knowledge back and teach young men the game of basketball has continued to be a passion of mine, and what better place to do it than at home? I’d like to truly thank Bishop Noll for allowing me this opportunity to come back. My goal is to develop and grow this group of young men and bring back the winning culture that Noll is accustomed to.”
Roldan praised the leadership of Dodson, who was a starting guard on the Bishop Noll team that went 26-0 before losing by one point to Indianapolis Park Tudor in the 2011 Class 2A state championship game. At Benedictine, Dodson was a two-year captain and started every game as a senior, logging more minutes than any other player on a team that went 31-0 before losing the national championship game to St. Thomas of Minnesota.
“John was a fierce competitor here at Bishop Noll and always highly respected among his coaches, peers and school community,” Roldan said. “We are excited to bring John back not only because of his success here, but also his success and leadership as a college player and coach, all of which will benefit the young men in Bishop Noll’s basketball program.”

What is a Social Sale Rep?
The sale web page does not reveal way too much info concerning this service. According to the information available, Social Sale Rep is an on the internet system that aids to begin with associate marketing via social media.
It’s for people who are trying to find either full-time or part-time revenue.
To me, this deal is a little bit too reluctant. In my viewpoint, you require a lot more info than it is offered on the official web site listed below.
Social Share Rep Official Website
Unlike numerous various other sales pages around for different on the internet businesses, Social Sale Rep does not look like a rip-off in the beginning. There are no typical signs like overhyping gaining claims, or phony endorsements and fancy sales videos.
Nevertheless, that does not mean that this is legit. For instance, I reviewed a website called 3 Step Approach, which looked very similar, however turned out to be a scam.
Among the things that trouble me concerning the Social Sale Rep web site is that there are no information regarding the background of the firm (if it even exists).
Also, there is no other way to inspect who has the site, because the Regarding me web page is not revealing too much.
The information from the website claims that this is a system created to link vendors and also our social media sites professionals most successfully as well as efficiently feasible.
In other words, they help people to get started with associate advertising and marketing service.
Now, the truth that Social Sale Rep demonstrates how to start with affiliate marketing is a great sign. It’s a genuine service version that 1000’s from around the globe use to earn $2,000, $5,000, and also $10,000+ each month!
That stated, allow’s see whether this training could get you there or Social Sale Rep is a scam nevertheless.
Is Social Sale Rep Legit?
Like most online money-making programs, you probably assume it’s a scam as well as I can’t criticize you. That was my first impression also. My thought Social Sale Rep would resemble well-known scams like JustEarn or Cash Genie.
So, I was stunned to find out that Social Sale Rep is really legitimate. Nonetheless, that does not indicate it’s what you anticipate it to be, or what you want it to be however.
Let me explain …
There are three facets to Social Sale Rep (for the purpose of this explanation).
- The Social Sale Rep advertising and promotion campaign
- The Social Sale Rep program/course
- The Social Sale Rep live conversation assistant work
The program and also the jobs are real, and also I’ll look at both of those more below.
The marketing and also promotion, nevertheless, are what I would certainly call “optimistic.”.
For instance, if you’ve concerned Social Sale Rep through their study page (revealed below), it states they’ll locate you the excellent online task in less than 5 mins.
Social Sale Rep Intro.
That’s partially true. They will certainly offer you with a list of remote work chances, however there’s a catch …
… you should apply for them.
This resembles another on the internet task system called ClickEarners.
There may be numerous various other candidates obtaining the same tasks, and also many of them might be much more certified than you. So, although they might have located your perfect work, that doesn’t suggest it’s your own.
You might get employed immediately. Nonetheless, you can also find yourself requesting lots of settings, some of which pay significantly less than $25 per hr.
And also you might not obtain an action.
Also, you are not worked with straight by Social Sale Rep, neither are you a Social Sale Rep live chat aide. The real jobs are legit, but they are different from the program. They are jobs discovered on numerous freelance platforms and job boards like Undoubtedly, Upwork, as well as Simply Employed.
So, if you obtain hired, you’ll be working for one more business unconnected to Social Sale Rep.
If that’s not what you were getting out of Social Sale Rep, and you were trying to find something less complex, survey sites like Survey Addict and Inbox Dollars are a less complicated means to earn money online.
Naturally, remote work posted on work boards are likely to pay more, however surveys are a fantastic way to make a couple of dollars between jobs and likewise while waiting to obtain employed.
If what you want, is a larger revenue, an on the internet company may be what you want.
You may be at house with children or have wellness problems which make a normal job challenging.
If that holds true and a full time income online is what you want, recognizing exactly how and also where to begin is what you require in order to get what you desire.
Is Social Sale Rep a Rip-off?
Well, I wouldn’t go as far as to state it’s a fraud due to the fact that there is the prospective to earn money as a result of following their training … Yet I will certainly say that it’s not likely you’ll in fact see any profits.
As for I’m concerned the entire point is simply as well misleading & as well hyped up so if you do buy into it after that you will likely just find yourself dissatisfied at what you obtain because your assumptions will certainly be set much greater.
Because of that, I’m not going to be recommending the Social Sale Rep internet site to you since in my opinion there are far better methods to begin online, ways that are actually shown to offer outcomes.
The bright side though is that the item is really being sold with ClickBank so if you occur to buy into it & do not like what you receive then you must stand a great chance of getting your refund by getting in touch with ClickBank directly.
Anyhow, that’s all I’ve personally reached state concerning this program but if you do take place to have any type of additional comments or questions on your own after that do not hesitate to leave them below & I’ll react as soon as I can.
How To Earn Money With Social Sale Rep?
As assured, the most important paragraph of my Social Sale Rep review is lastly here.
Earning online with the platform is fairly basic really and also it all comes down to your working procedure:.
You’ll be giving away cost-free digital books.
Nowadays, e-books are a central advertising device for marketing experts as well as company owner.
There are numerous means e-books can be used to advance any type of sort of on-line company.
For instance, blog owners are providing away as giveaways– that assists with building an email listing quickly.
Because you will not be a blog owner, let’s concentrate on exactly how these giveaways will help your advantage:.
Well, it will certainly benefit you due to the fact that it will certainly profit your target market.
Think about your readers and what was your strategy to free e-books when you used to be one.
Will you say no to a complimentary product that will answer your inquiry or address an issue for you?
Or maybe it will bring you a certain amount of value you need currently?
Remember, you’re not paying anything right here.
Directly, I have no idea the number of cost-free books, PDFs, and also similar items I’ve overcome the years. If they’re satisfying my requirements now, why should I pass on them?
And right here comes the interesting component:.
More often than not, there are services or products that will solve a visitor’s problem completely.
As soon as the totally free eBooks you’re offering present this service to your viewers, the possibilities for affiliate sales are many.
Each of the eBooks you’ll receive from Social Sale Rep will have your affiliate web link to an appropriate product inside– and that’s exactly how you’ll make money thanks to the system.

I don't think my wright's thick cut is more or less healthy than your homemade bacon.
I'd agree there. There isn't a huge
degree of difference between bacon unless you're just buying bottom of the barrel crap. I guarantee you though mine tastes better. And speaking of whiceh I went by Cleaver & Co. today and bought a 2 lb pork belly. Will start the cure on it tomorrow and have another batch of homemade bacon by the end of next week.
I also don't think my kraft deluxe is any more or less healthy than your pasta.
Are you trying to tell me you didn't use the faux cheese product they put in the box?
Bacon is bacon and pasta is pasta. And you eat both also so don't look down on me.
I don't "look down on you." Get over yourself babe.
But I will venture to say your dinner tonight tasted better than mine due to the ingredients.

If you are a regular reader of this blog, you’re probably wondering where I’ve been since December. Well I’m currently “Down Under” in Australia, exploring and soaking up the warm sunshine of Brisbane, Sydney, Manly Beach and Uluru. Yes, my husband and I love to travel. With every trip, I learn about other cultures, make new friends from far away countries and expand my personal universe just a bit more.
As I walked around the grounds of the beautiful Sydney Opera House, watching the busy harbor hum with ferries and ogling the massive cruise ships that put to port everyday, I couldn’t help but think of my ancestors.
Although they had lived in the same mountain valley for hundreds of years, a poor economy and no job opportunities had forced them to travel far from their ancestral home. From the mid-1870’s through the 1920’s, entire families left the Val di Non for a better life. They traveled to the United States, Canada, South America, and other parts of Europe. Unlike our ability to board a plane and be half-way around the world in less than a day, our great-grandparents had a much more difficult time traveling.
My branch of the Genetti family left their village of Castelfondo in the Austrian Tyrol for the city of Hazleton, Pennsylvania. Their journey would have transpired somewhat like this. First they would travel down the valley to the city of Trento. Today this takes about an hour by car. But before the era of automobiles, our ancestors road in a horse and cart loaded with children and baggage or they walked. It would have taken the better part of a day to reach the city. Once in Trento, the family purchased train tickets to the port of Le Havre, France as well as their tickets to board a ship to New York City. After traveling by train through the mountains to the French port, they boarded a large steam ship with hundreds of other immigrants.
Due to the expense of moving a big family to a new country, my great-grandfather traveled to America first, bringing along his four oldest children. The passage by ship would have been about 10 days at sea, most likely docking in New York City. I say “most likely” because I have yet to find the ship records for this particular crossing made by Damiano and his children who arrived sometime around 1903.
Three years later Damiano’s wife, Oliva, arrived on December 3, 1906 at Ellis Island with the couple’s five youngest children. The little one, Angela Maria, was just three years old. We do have ship’s records for Oliva and the children. They traveled steerage. It must have been a long and difficult journey for a mother trying to keep track of five young children. In New York City they joined their Papa, boarded another train and reunited a few hours later with their older siblings in the new and strange city of Hazleton.
I have much respect for my great-grandfather. From online records I know he made the arduous journey between Hazleton, PA and Castelfondo, Austria (now Italy) at least seven times, between 1877 and 1930.
Even by today’s standards of air travel, I know it’s not easy to reach the village of Castelfondo, tucked in the alpine meadows. I can’t imagine how difficult it must have been 100 years ago.

Asante Kotoko will be concentrating more on improving their form in the next edition of the CAF Champions League as against retaining their Premier League crown in the coming season.
The Porcupine Warriors have been unable to translate their dominance in the Ghanaian top flight to their continental campaign.
Kotoko have won three successive league titles but have failed within the same period to make it past the qualification stage of the CAF Champions League.
Their ever demanding fans despite their delight of their thorough dominance in the domestic league especially over rivals Hearts of Oak demand better performance from their team in Africa.
The club’s top hierarchy have now resolved to make the CAF Champions League their top most priority at the expense of another title success in the league.
“The target now for Kotoko is to do well in Africa having dominated the Ghana Premier League for the past seasons,†the club’s spokesman Ali Maradona said.
“The expectation of the fans, management and even the owner of the club Otumfour is Africa.
“So our efforts this season will be geared towards improving our performance in Africa and not the Premier League.â€

I often get asked what the secret is to making money with Google's AdSense program. This often comes from people who are dreaming of setting up websites chock full of high-paying keywords for particular niche subjects and then sitting back and watching the money roll in. “What's the magic formula?" they ask me. If they're non-technical, I point them straight to my book, Make Easy Money with Google, and assure them that they'll learn everything they need from it. They may think it's hard, but it's not.
But what about the technical people? By this I mean the people who've already set up a blog or website, who have registered domain names, who are comfortable with basic Internet terminology and concepts. What is the “AdSense formula"?
The only AdSense formula that you need to know is this:
earnings = number of clicks * average price per click
This is what I call the Fundamental AdSense Formula because you can derive almost every AdSense “secret" directly or indirectly from this formula. Do you want to earn more with AdSense? You have two ways of doing it:
1. Increase the number of clicks, and/or
2. Increase the average price per click
Your earnings will only go up if you do one or the other, and ideally both. It's an obvious formula, yes, but it's amazing how many people lose sight of it in their quest for increased AdSense earnings.
Increasing the Number of AdSense Clicks
Increasing the number of times the ads on your site or blog are clicked is the most obvious strategy. There are two general strategies you can follow:
1. Increase the traffic to the site, and/or
2. Adjust the ads to make them more “clickable"
Getting traffic is hard and takes time, so don't look at it as a quick fix. The best way to get traffic is to provide useful, unique content and to rank highly in search engine rankings for keywords related to that content. In other words, use standard search engine optimization techniques. DO NOT “buy" traffic or use “link farms" or other dubious techniques. Other tips for getting traffic:
1. Publish articles, even free ones, with links back to your site.
2. Include a link to your site in the signature at the bottom of your emails or in any forum postings you make (if the forum allows it).
3. Participate in forums/groups related to the content of your site or blog. The key is to participate, not lurk, and don't just post messages promoting your site.
4. Add comments (relevant ones only, please) to other blogs, you can usually link back to yours. (This won't help your search engine rankings, but it may allow others who are reading those comments to find your own site. )
5. Syndicate your content (trivial if you have a blog) and make sure that the content is registered with syndication aggregators.
6. List your site in relevant directories.
Adjusting the ads is something you can do almost immediately:
1. Position the ads on the page in order to make them more noticeable. Google even publishes a helpful heat map (see https://www.google.com/support/adsense/bin/static. py?page=tips.html ) for AdSense publishers.
2. Choose the best AdSense ad format that works for your site.
3. Change the ad colors either to make the ads blend in with your site or to make them stand out. Again, it varies depending on the site.
Whatever you do, DO NOT ENTICE VISITORS TO CLICK THE ADS. Google is very strict about this, see the AdSense program policies (found at https://www.google.com/adsense/policies ) for the details.
Increasing the Average AdSense Price Per Click
Increasing the average price per click you receive from AdSense is the other strategy for increasing your overall AdSense earnings. You can do this by:
1. Carefully targeting your content, and/or
2. Filtering out and avoiding low-paying ads
Content targeting isn't just about creating relevant, unique content. It's also making sure that that content is written to target the higher-paying keywords associated with a given topic. This means:
1. Figuring out which keyword variations for that topic pay more. Often the more specialized variations and phrases pay more than the “generic" terms.
2. Ensuring that the keyword density of the content favors the higher-paying keyword variations. See http://www.MakeEasyMoneyWithGoogle.com/vioxx-lawsuit.html for an example of well-targeted ads due to appropriate keyword density.
And to reduce the occurrence of lower-paying ads, consider these two strategies:
1. Use AdSense's competitive filter mechanism to screen out the ads that you don't want.
2. Show fewer ads on a page. The fewer ads you show, the more the higher-paying ads get displayed and clicked.
Many publishers also report that their earnings increase if they remove ads completely from pages with few or no clicks. Again, the “less is more" strategy favors the higher-paying ads.
There's No Magic
As you can see, there's no magic involved to increasing your AdSense earnings. The Fundamental AdSense Formula is easy to understand, but that doesn't mean it's easy to apply the formula. It takes time and effort to do it, just like most things.

Bug#56256: Ada95 bindings for ncurses (fwd)
I would like to make a separate package from the Ada binding. This
seems the only solution since the GNAT compiler will not be available
on all debian architectures before long, and this would make it quite
difficult to build it from the same tarball than the C API.
It should not be difficult to convince the upstream to make its source
a separate tarball, since nothing has been modified in it for many

8 Reading Strategies That Work
Reading strategies are very important for developing good reading skills. They help children to make meaning out of unfamiliar words and ideas in a variety of ways. Many children get stuck when they rely on only one or two strategies. Introducing these 8 strategies and practicing them will give them the tools to better understand the material they are reading.
About 3 years ago, I was introduced to these cute animals and their uses as reading strategies. I loved how the children engaged with them. I had to get my own stuffies so that they could actually hold them and interact with them. I use them all the time now in my guided reading groups.
I created a set of bookmarks and posters to go with these strategies. If you would like to get a copy of these bookmarks and posters, click the image below.
I hope you find these tools helpful with your young readers. I would love to hear how you use strategies in reading.
Using Games to Teach Skills
Using games and activities that are fun will help to engage children and they will learn skills without realizing that they are learning. It is wonderful to see them taking risks and challenges and enjoying learning.
I have always tried to include games in my guided reading lessons and my literacy blocks. Children can often get frustrated if they are working hard at learning to decode or make meaning of what they are reading. Using games to focus on some of the skills relieves some of that stress and allows them to practice the skills in a fun environment.
I use lots of different boxed games, but I also use task cards and other games that I have created. The ones that I have made are specific for what I might be covering in groups. I have many different themes for my sight words so that they are always fun to use because they are linked to different holidays, or special times.
Here are some other types of activities that I have used with my students. Depending on the abilities and the needs, I have made the materials simple for learning letter sounds and names and more difficult for learning about figurative language and parts of speech. I have also created activities for the interactive whiteboard. Bingo games that go with various topics are also fun to create.
If you are interested in checking out some of these products or other literacy activities that I have created, click here.
I volunteer at school and work with several guided reading groups. I create games and activities for them. Another retired teacher volunteers as well. She asked me to make up some game boards for her. You can check them out here.
Here is a free sample from the set of game boards. Click the image below to get your copy.
I have fun creating games and I love seeing the children react when a new game is presented to them. But more importantly, I am excited to see them learning skills that they were struggling with. It is so thrilling to see them applying the skills to their reading and writing lessons.
I would love to hear how you use games in your classroom to teach skills.

Both investors and their financial advisors are carefully watching the market ups and downs. Half of advisors say the top investor-initiated conversation is focused around market volatility, according to Russell Investment’s Q2 Financial Professional Outlook.
Out of the 150 advisors Russell surveyed, 54 percent said during the past three months, the most common issue initiated by your clients during discussions was volatility in the equities market, followed by government policy. Only 19 percent of advisors initiated this topic with clients.
Yet Fidelity’s Second Quarter Advisor Sentiment Pulse showed similar fears among advisors, finding that market volatility was the top concern for the 200 advisors surveyed, up from the No. 3 spot it held during the first quarter.
When volatility is low, there's always the fear that it will go high, says Scott Couto, the president of Fidelity Financial Advisor Solutions. While volatility was near a 7-year low during the second quarter according to the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), the last two weeks have seen it increase by a third. Before that, the index averaged 13.34 in April and May, well below the historical average of 20.
"Over the last several weeks we've had several significant geopolitical events," Couto says, pointing to the recent downing of Malaysia Airlines flight 17 and the violence in Gaza. "We know post-2009, investors in general are far more concerned about risk." Psychologically, the losses many investors incurred during the recession still hurt, Couto says.
For advisors, it's about maintaining client relationships. Advisors know that the clients who stayed after the market reverses of 2009 showed a bit of faith. "If they lose for a client twice, they fear they may not be in good standing with that client."
These fears, as well as current events, will probably keep volatility top-of-mind for both advisors and investors during the second half of 2014, Couto says.

Most unusual, love it!!
Bad spelling? Wut's dat?
Thanks for adding info, Chrissie. Shirley-One of the greatest things about jigidi (besides the crazy people), is that I learn something new just about every day.
Have a good day, ladies!
Please forgive my bad spelling.
Thank you pumpkin and Chrissie for answering my question. I checkout the website you gave pumpkin, although I didn't find a answer there, I found another covered bridge, If I remember correctly it was the Sulphite Bridge, very interesting reading, they also called it the upsidedown bridge as the train line was built to run over the top and not through the covered part, there were seveal more bridges, great subject.Thanks Pumpkin and Chrissie.
Very scenic shot, Suzy. I'd agree, 'tis a good question, Shirley. Prompted me to check into it and this is what I learned...
"What you're really trying to protect in a covered bridge are the structural members--the trusses. Made of heavy timber, these are the expensive part of the bridge, and if they fall apart due to exposure to the elements, so does the bridge. An unprotected wooden bridge will last maybe ten years. Put a cover over it, however, and it'll last for centuries. Somebody had to think it up, and the somebody usually credited is Timothy Palmer, who built the prototypical American covered bridge in Philadelphia between 1800 and 1804. Over time there have been anywhere from 3,000 to 16,000, depending on who's doing the estimating. Today fewer than 800 remain."
I love the University of Jigidi :-)
Beautiful photo, pumpkinhead.
You have asked a good question, shirley.There are a number of reasons given for bridges being covered. The "cover" provides protection for the wooden supports of the bridges which were exposed to rain, snow and ice. Being covered gave the bridges a longer life. Some say that it was easier to get horses across the rivers and streams when they were covered as the animals couldn't see the water. In the winter, when it snows, it kept the bridge clear from the snow. I am sure there are more reasons, but those are the first to come to mind. If anyone has others to add, I would be interested!
What is the story behind them being a covered bridge, I'll check out the website, maybe that will tell me, wonderful picture, Thanks pumpkin.
If you would like a bit more information on the bridge, there is a good website.
I will post another view tomorrow. Thanks for all the visits and comments! I believe Celeste posted a puzzle of this bridge back in August-just after we got back from the White Mtns.
Postcard from New Hampshire! Love it!
very nice shot Suzanne
Everything about this photo is great, Punkinhaid. Thanks for posting it.
I love this too -- and love the info you gave us about it, Suzy. Thank you!
Love this. Thanks
1859? ... Wow! This is gorgeous, all of it. Thanks!
Like the red reflection in the water too.
Just think of the size of the trees they had to use to make it across this span. We cut them all down and have none left. A true work of art Pumpkin.
Love it, Thanks pumpkin. That one has quite the span.
This bridge was originally built in 1859. Two previous attempts to build the bridge had failed due to flooding. The bridge has undergone restoration as needed, using natural wood beams and wooden pegs which were crafted by the grandson of one of the original builders.
Nice shot punkie!

Order Process Your instructions will be followed When you work with an on-line writing service, you really want to be sure your ordered essay or dissertation will be one-of-a-kind and exactly what you asked for. We are very good at meeting guidelines and deadlines.
An essay has been defined in a variety of ways. One definition is a "prose composition with a focused subject of discussion" or a "long, systematic discourse". Aldous Huxleya leading essayist, gives guidance on the subject. Furthermore, Huxley argues that "essays belong to a literary species whose extreme variability can be studied most effectively within a three-poled frame of reference".
These three poles or worlds in which the essay may exist are: The personal and the autobiographical: The essayists that feel most comfortable in this pole "write fragments of reflective autobiography and look at the world through the keyhole of anecdote and description".
The objective, the factual, and the concrete particular: The essayists that write from this pole "do not speak directly of themselves, but turn their attention outward to some literary or scientific or political theme. Their art consists of setting forth, passing judgment upon, and drawing general conclusions from the relevant data".
In this pole "we find those essayists who do their work in the world of high abstractions", who are never personal and who seldom mention the particular facts of experience. Huxley adds that the most satisfying essays " In English essay first meant "a trial" or "an attempt", and this is still an alternative meaning.
The Frenchman Michel de Montaigne — was the first author to describe his work as essays; he used the term to characterize these as "attempts" to put his thoughts into writing, and his essays grew out of his commonplacing.
For the rest of his life, he continued revising previously published essays and composing new ones. Ben Jonson first used the word essayist in English inaccording to the Oxford English Dictionary.

Whereas some essayists used essays for strident political themes, Robert Louis Stevenson and Willa Cather wrote lighter essays. Zuihitsu As with the novelessays existed in Japan several centuries before they developed in Europe with a genre of essays known as zuihitsu — loosely connected essays and fragmented ideas.
Zuihitsu have existed since almost the beginnings of Japanese literature.
Many of the most noted early works of Japanese literature are in this genre. Notable examples include The Pillow Book c. Another noteworthy difference from Europe is that women have traditionally written in Japan, though the more formal, Chinese-influenced writings of male writers were more prized at the time.
Forms and styles This section describes the different forms and styles of essay writing.
These forms and styles are used by an array of authors, including university students and professional essayists. Cause and effect The defining features of a "cause and effect" essay are causal chains that connect from a cause to an effect, careful language, and chronological or emphatic order.
A writer using this rhetorical method must consider the subjectdetermine the purposeconsider the audiencethink critically about different causes or consequences, consider a thesis statement, arrange the parts, consider the languageand decide on a conclusion.

Limit the number of asynchronous jobs picked up for each organization
Update Rollup 3 for Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server 2011 introduces a new deployment-wide setting that limits the number of asynchronous jobs that may be picked up for each organization. This setting may help reduce asynchronous operation backlog when multiple organizations are present. Without limiting the maximum number of jobs picked up, if a single organization in the deployment submits a large number of asynchronous jobs, such as 3,000 jobs, the Asynchronous Service may attend to those jobs first instead of attending to the fewer number of jobs submitted by other organizations.
The following Windows PowerShell command sets the maximum number of items that can be queued to 100 for each organization in the deployment.
|You must apply Update Rollup 3 for Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server 2011 or a later version update rollup on all Microsoft Dynamics CRM server roles before you run this Windows PowerShell command.|
To configure the number of asynchronous jobs picked up for each organization
add-pssnapin Microsoft.Crm.Powershell $itemSetting = new-object 'System.Collections.Generic.KeyValuePair[String,Object]'("AsyncSelectMaxItems",100) $configEntity = New-Object "Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Deployment.ConfigurationEntity" $configEntity.LogicalName="Deployment" $configEntity.Attributes = New-Object "Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Deployment.AttributeCollection" $configEntity.Attributes.Add($itemSetting) Set-CrmAdvancedSetting -Entity $configEntity

Review by Marty Steiner, Photos Courtesy McMurray Antiques & Auctions
KIRKWOOD, N.Y. – You may want to check your grandmother’s medicine cabinet for old real or quack remedies. A recent McMurray Antiques & Auctions sale on July 23 sold 167 lots of such various collectible patent medicine, apothecary or drugstore and veterinary items along with advertising signs. McMurray Auctions specializes in advertising and other apothecary items, usually conducting three sales each year. This most recent absentee, phone and mail bid sale was his 78th such sale.
The July 23 sale underlines the fact that there are collectors of almost everything that exists. Many of the items in this sale came from the Jerry Phelps collection. This is the ninth sale with Phelps’ items and there will be a few more. Like many other great auctions, great collectors and their collections drive this activity. Phelps and his wife have reached the point in life where they have decided to begin downsizing. This is not your usual three bedroom home with an incidental collection displayed here and there but a 63-acre lakeside village with a jam-filled country store and apothecary museum in Mount Eden, Ky. This store houses Phelps’ lifetime advertising and apothecary collection.
The auction opened with 20 lots of apothecary jars, other containers and a – massive at 721 pages – 1886 druggist catalog that is both a collectible and a valuable reference. All but one lot met or exceeded catalog estimates. Top lots in this group was the 1886 Peter Vanschaak and Sons Illustrated Druggist Catalog at $690, and a cylindrical container of rat poison – with contents – for $575. A few colorful examples in this group included a blue ceramic ointment jar ($161), an amethyst drug jar with gilt Cassi label ($460) and green ribbed jar with red Zinci Sulphas label ($184). Two different size W.N. Walton 1862 patent cobalt recessed lug jars with virtually identical labels brought $403 and $321.
Dr Kilmer’s material are among the more sought after drugstore collectibles. Generally regarded as quack medicine, Kilmer operated in Binghamton, N.Y., not far from McMurray’s auction house. Beginning in the mid-1870s, Kilmer became a household name primarily for his “Swamp Root” Kidney, Liver and Bladder Cure Specific elixir. Thirty Kilmer lots included containers (vials, tins and bottles) and advertising items, including blotters, booklets, almanacs, trade card and even an office hours card. Although the creation of the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) in 1906 required Kilmer to drop the word “Cure” from the product name, the company and brand continued until 1943. Kilmer auction prices ranged from $12 for a small vial still containing Dr Kilmer’s Prompt Purilla Pills to $1,103 for a rare early embossed Indian Cough Cure Consumption Oil bottle. This bottle topped estimates of $300/500.
Twenty-eight lots of advertising followed with some items framed. The first advertising lot – Dr D. Jayne’s Tonic Vermifuge – became the top dollar item in this sale at $1,668 and was right on target with an estimate of $1,2/2,000. The tonic promised a cure for coughs, colds, asthma, lung and throat disease, for “grown people and children,” as well a “sure cure for worms.”
All but three advertising lots met or exceeded their catalog estimates. Two different sized tin signs embossed “Lemon Chill Cure, No Cure – No Pay 50 cts” drew strong bids at $575 and $316 against estimates of $100/200 and $80-$150, respectively. A few low end items including shipping crates with advertising labels doubled their estimates.
Twenty-four veterinary related items, with a smaller following and associated lower estimates, performed as expected. Here, another vintage catalog, the 1910 edition of the Max Wocher & Son Veterinary Goods, that can serve as a great reference brought $316 against its estimate of $100/150. At $431 a framed, colorful canvas sign for Dr A.C. Danials Wonder Worker Healing Lotion for Sores, Cuts, Wounds, Etc., was right on target with its $200/400 estimate.
Dental items followed with nine lots. Pointing the way was an arrow shaped lithographed sign for Philadelphia’s Dr Hyman Painless Dentist, No Pain-Little Cost. This sign topped the dental group and its estimate of $120/250. A rare cone top tin container of Burwal Tooth Powder with Peroxide left the sale squeaky clean at $276, on target with $120/250 estimate.
Next up were 22 lots of tins and pills. “Jayne’s Expectorant Tablets (with) Opium One Grain To Ounce” hinged top tin didn’t put anyone asleep at $345, and actually produced a high over the $60-120 estimate. No one would question the motives of the successful bidder for a pocket tin of Parke, Davis & Co samples of hypodermic tablets at $253, well over the $60-120 estimate.
Bottles closed out this sale. In general, the group of 34 lots of bottles was the strongest of any category on offer. Half the bottle lots exceeded their high estimates with another ten meeting the estimates. An amber Life Plant bottle with complete eagle label soared to $949, well over its $100/200 catalog estimate. Equally impressive was a clear glass Radium Radia bottle with front and back labels accompanied with its original box which sold for $431 versus its $120/200 advance estimate. Likewise for the same winning bid of $431, Warner’s Safe Rheumatic Cure amber bottle offered “for Sciatica, Lumbago, and Gout” on its label. With an original price on the label of $1.25 and an estimate of $150/250, not a bad return on original purchase. Equally as impressive was a Yager’s Sarsaparilla bottle with colorful box and original flyer in the box. An estimate of $120/200 was blown away with a $374 winning bid.
Other bottles with their original boxes and inserted booklets included Dr Shoop’s Cough Syrup at $345, well over $60/90 expectation. Another bidder coughed up $276 for a completely full clear bottle, complete with labels and original box of Papillon Catarrh Cough Cure with an advance diagnosis of $100/200. If all this bidding action caused epileptic-like shakes, perhaps Dr Kline’s Epileptic Remedy will help at only $546 compared to its $80-$120 prescription.
“Terry [McMurray] and I go back many, many years. His apothecary shop/museum and mine (before disbursement) are two of the largest in the continental United States,” Phelps told Antiques And The Arts Weekly.
Phelps, a retired anesthesiologist, and his wife Imogene have spent their “vacations” cruising the countryside looking for drugstore and country store collectibles. They attended shows, auctions and traveled to New England, Canada, and as far as California. In the process, they also began Van Buren Village. The Village honored the town of Van Buren, Ky., which was submerged during the creation of Taylorsville Lake in Mount Eden. Their country store replica built in the village became home for their collection.
“It has been quite a journey traveling, acquiring, hauling and restoring so many artifacts and buildings…it is time to pass the baton to new owners!” Phelps added.
Bidders successful in winning a substantial portion of the Phelps collection should also consider an outstanding opportunity to purchase a home for that collection. Currently available is the replica country store and apothecary which has been the home of the Phelps collection. This 63-acre lakeside Van Buren Village with historic Kentucky log cabins and barns is priced at $1.98 million. Think about it!
Prices quoted include the buyer’s premium as reported by the auction house.

Published Sep 21, 2009On their sophomore effort, Vancouver, BC's Copilots retain their penchant for engagingly off-kilter rock while exploring a dynamic range of moods that helps Escape Through the Trees stand out from the pack. Leader Skye Brooks is a talented musician who plays drums in eclectic, genre-defying bands like Inhabitants and Fond of Tigers, and also backs up songwriters like Veda Hille, Ndidi Onukwulu and Jill Barber, amongst others. As it happens, he's also a skilled guitarist and vocalist with an obvious love of good pop hooks to go along with the more esoteric leanings of his jazz/improvised music groups. In an intriguingly vague manner, Copilots amalgamate this variety of explosive forms in songs written by Brooks, bassist Pete Schmidt and guitarist Chad McQuarrie. The rhythmic push-pull of "Long Hauling" is fuelled by adventurous guitar interplay, while "Blown Around" possesses the slither of "Wrapped Around Your Finger." A refined kind of theatricality permeates the best Copilots songs and "Mirages of Heat" is full of looming tension, as parts weave in and out between crashing group vocal choruses. McQuarrie's voice in particular shines on "Magic Wishes," a fine representative from a Copilots record ripe with passion and driven by precision.
Is it important for you to lead a band?
Brooks: I've felt a very strong urge to write and perform songs for a long time. I'm still getting comfortable on-stage, talking to the audience and trying to be a good singer while I play guitar. I've played drums for a long time, so this is newer, but also very exciting and satisfying in a whole other way.
Was there a collective vision for this record?
I wrote six songs and Pete and Chad each wrote two, so it's more of a collective effort, but it's somehow more cohesive than our first record. My girlfriend, Karma Sohn, also joined us on keyboards. She adds a supple dimension, a harmonic depth to the songs. Her and Chad work really well together as a team.
The drums and bass stand out here.
Rhythm is an important part of Copilots. That could be because I play in bands like Fond of Tigers, where the rhythms can be disorienting but also very natural. I'm attracted to that. I'm not interested in writing music that's jarring. Fundamentally, I'm interested in things really grooving, even if the rhythms are complicated. (Drip Audio)

Healthy lifestyle reduces the odds of falling ill. Variety in food adds spice and taste to life and is equally important for balanced diet. There must be a balance between number of calories one takes (IN) and number of calories one burns by physical activities (OUT). It is also important to keep a tab on the levels of vitamins, minerals etc. in one’s body. There are simple and affordable blood tests to check these vital parameters – vitamin D, vitamin B12, Calcium, Iron, and Electrolytes etc.

Connecticut's aquariums, zoo in shutdown; here's how to check in on the animals
A video of penguins wandering about the The Shedd Aquarium in Chicago during the shutdown went viral this week (no pun intended).
In Connecticut, our penguins are still in their designated area, but you can watch the ones at Mystic Aquarium thanks to a live stream. They also have cameras on their beluga whales. On Facebook, the aquarium staff is posting live videos regularly as well.
Over at the Beardsley Zoo in Bridgeport, all eyes are on their red pandas via a life feed (watch below). And on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 2 p.m., the zoo is live on Facebook with videos of different animals. Note: The panda is shy so you may not see it on camera.
The zoo is also launching an academic program by producing video lesson plans "to help fill in for students whose schools have been closed due to the Coronavirus outbreak," according to a release.
The Maritime Aquarium in Norwalk launched a similar Facebook program with live Q&As with staff as well as streaming IMAX movies. On March 17, The Maritime Aquarium began offering live Q&As with members of its Animal-Husbandry team at 3 p.m. each day on the Aquarium’s Facebook page.
"Each session will mainly focus on an animal or topic shown via recorded video, but questions can be about any related Aquarium subject," a release states. Questions can be submitted any time between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. via the Aquarium’s social-media pages – Facebook, Instagram and Twitter – and then live on Facebook during the 3 p.m. “Watch Party” webcast.
“We very strongly feel the need to make our resources available to our guests, members and schools, even though we are required to be apart,” Aquarium spokesman Dave Sigworth said in a release. “The Q&A sessions will assure viewers that our operations remain robust, while also re-establishing the close community we are so proud to be part of and to support.”

How much money does a video with 1 million views get on YouTube?
I've only seen a small percentage of YouTubers who have videos with 1 million views post about this, despite the fact that it is obviously an intriguing topic.
If that's because YouTubers don't want their audience knowing how much they earn or not, I'm not sure, but I felt like I could provide some insight on this as I recently had a video get 1 million views in under a week.
In my niche, the CPM is quite a bit different than most channels.
I guess “Red pill” sort of stuff.
In the video I published that had 1 million views, I was detailing how androgenic alopecia (male pattern baldness) is expedited by anabolic androgenic steroid use.
I was shocked at how much this video exploded.
Especially in my niche.
This is something that usually wouldn't get exposed to the general public.
Mainly because it is not something that many people find overly interesting.
As you can see here, the video was published January 28, 2019 and has a running time of 7 minutes and 7 seconds.
It earned approximately $2,245.31 CAD
On the first day, it earned $20.25.
The day after it earned $95.47.
The day after that it earned $278.99, then $397.30 the next day, and then it peaked at $630.20 in one day.
After that, it plateaued and fell off to $477.71 the day after the peak, followed by $215.60 the day after, and then at that point the traction on the video had died off and it started earning next to nothing.
This is Canadian currency, so in US currency that would equate to $1,685.32.
For a video in my hyper-specific niche to get over $1,000 was shocking to me.
I actually didn't even put ad breaks in this video when I published it, which was a huge mistake.
I probably could've earned twice as much had I done that, and perhaps the video would've been promoted even more heavily by the algorithm, but it is what it is.
I also learned that the duration of the video, watch time of the video, viewer demographic, location, among several other factors all greatly impact what the final dollar amount will be that you earn.
For example, if you have content that doesn't have much attention around it (e.g. my niche), it can be harder to earn very much revenue from your views.
In addition, if you have a niche of content that doesn't attract viewers that are likely to buy things via the ads placed on your videos, expectedly, your CPM will be lower too.
Other Examples In Other Niches
After looking at other videos of YouTubers in more ad-friendly niches than me, I've seen some really crazy numbers.
Some really ad-friendly niches earn upwards of $40,000 per million views, which is insane.
He doesn't actually answer the question in this video, but after you math it out with his CPM in the “make money online/entrepreneurship” niche, the video he's referring to above earned $41,500.
You can see some other examples here:
YouTube videos with 1 million views typically earn between $500 – $10,000 USD.
In general, it seems that the average is approximately $2000 USD, but can be much higher if you are in a niche that has a highly engaged paying audience (e.g. the entrepreneurship niche), have longer than average watch time of your video, among several other major factors.
I have yet to see a niche of content earn a better CPM than entrepreneurship videos, which have been shown to earn CPM's above 40.

You can use these heart chakra affirmations to boost your self-esteem and feel better about yourself. Get ready for a big change!
15 Heart Chakra Affirmation to Help You Feel Better
Heart chakra affirmations are a powerful approach to motivate you on your yoga journey of self-discovery.
They supplement the positive, peaceful attitude that meditation cultivates.
Use these 15 powerful heart chakra affirmations to awaken unconditional love for yourself and others, as well as to open your heart to healing from past relationships and patterns that may be holding you back.
With heart chakra affirmations to utilize in your daily practice, you can unlock the true power of loving-kindness.
What is the Heart Chakra?
The fourth chakra, located in the heart of the chakra system, influences our ability to act compassionately, forgive, love, and be loved.
Green represents the heart chakra, which is located in the center of the chest.
It is thought to be the link between our earthy and spiritual selves, facilitating transformation and unity.
Related: Solve Your Problems With The Help Of Meditation
Anahata chakra, when in balance, guides us on a life path motivated by purpose and aligned with our highest spiritual potential.
Heart chakra energy enables us to create meaningful relationships with others while pursuing our most desired goals.
Affirmations To Heal & Open the Heart Chakra
The neuroscience behind our modern use of affirmations. Positive affirmations, according to researchers in this field, are helpful for enhancing wellbeing, lowering stress, and making people more amenable to behavioral changes.
This is referred to in yoga as mending negative samskaras and eliminating blockages in the subtle body.
Affirmations can direct your thinking toward productive, good thoughts and bring you inner serenity.
The beauty of heart chakra affirmations is that you may use them at any time to remind yourself of your desires or to boost your confidence in your abilities to create them.
Heart chakra affirmations, in particular, can help you connect with the pure love, compassion, and harmony that resides in your heart core.
You may ask, “Isn’t that the mantra?”.
While both mantras and affirmations are short statements used to guide our awareness and aid healing, they differ slightly.
Mantras emphasize meaning and tone, with the goal of creating a vibrational frequency that aligns your purpose, chakras, and the cosmos.
Affirmations are phrases that connect your ideas to the life you want to live. More information on how to utilize healing affirmations with the chakras may be found in my main post on affirmations.
Here are some pointers for using powerful heart chakra affirmations to open and repair the heart chakra:
- Consider your heart chakra. Consider the color green to be circulating here, calming any sickness or imprisoned energy.
- Consider the bright, green light streaming through your upper and lower chakras, as well as into the area around you.
- As you feel the flow of energy through your heart center, mentally repeat your heart chakra affirmations.
- Put your hand on your heart to strengthen your connection to the energy here.
Self-Love & Selfless Love
When was the last time you had a conversation with your soul?
It is critical to maintaining a constant dialogue with your innermost being in order to discover what you genuinely require, desire, and wish for.
Only when we can really love what we discover deep inside ourselves will we be able to love others selflessly — to celebrate their accomplishments, care about their hardships, and give without expecting anything in return.
If you find it difficult to give selflessly, ask yourself the following questions first to check in with yourself:
- Do you love yourself completely?
- Do you think you deserve to be happy?
- Do you surround yourself with people who share your values?

Symptoms of Heart Chakra Blockage
A blocked heart chakra can have an effect on the entire body. If your heart chakra is out of harmony, you may have physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual symptoms.
Physical difficulties in many organs, such as the heart and lungs, can result from blocked energy in the heart chakra.
Blockages may also impact the chest, arms, and hands, which are home to the major routes of heart-energy circulation. Here are several indicators that your heart chakra is blocked and that it is time to heal:
- Upper back, shoulder, arm, or hand muscle ache
- Cardiovascular issues such as high blood pressure, arrhythmia, and poor circulation
- Lack of self-assurance You may know what you want to achieve, but you doubt your ability to carry it out.
- Concerns with trust and closeness You may be resistant to relying on others to show up for you for fear of being let down, or you may have problems receiving affection.
- Codependency is a type of relationship addiction in which you engage in compulsive caregiving in order to feel “needed.”
- You keep grudges. Forget forgiveness and forgetting! You have difficulties letting go of your rage and other negative emotions.
15 Heart Chakra Affirmations for Unconditional Love
- I love myself exactly as I am right now.
- I appreciate both my strengths and my flaws.
- I forgive and unconditionally love every aspect of myself.
- My heart is thankful, and my spirit is at ease.
- In the globe, I am a great force of loving energy.
- I am filled with bravery.
- My passion for life serves as my compass.
- I am love, peace, and light.
- I let go of my self-criticism and self-doubt.
- With grace and ease, I achieve balance.
- My heart is completely free, loving, and pure.
- I am deserving of caring, loving, and supportive partnerships.
- I prefer joy and compassion to judgment.
- I simply and unconditionally give and receive love.
- I am deserving of abundance.

Wrap It Up
Being emotionally open can increase your relatability to others and, as a result, deepen your relationships. To protect yourself against emotional tiredness and overexposure, it’s critical to have a healthy understanding of the energy you give and receive.
This implies an overactive heart chakra, putting you at risk for codependency.
Take some time to think about this before beginning to practice heart chakra affirmations, and focus on affirmations that promote balance in your life.
When you do this, you will tap into an endless stream of love that never runs out.

A Clerihew is a whimsical, four-line biographical poem invented by Edmund Clerihew Bentley. We had fun hearing your Haiku last week, so about some science- and Zooniverse-based Clerihews?
One of the best known examples is:
Sir Christopher Wren
Said, “I am going to dine with some men.
If anyone calls
Say I am designing St. Paul’s.”
…but we can also find some fun science Clerihews online:
Sir James Dewar
Is smarter than you are
None of you asses
Can liquify gases.
To rhyme Carlos Frenck
I’ve drawn a complete blenk
But I found in the lexicon
A good one for Mexican
That last one is from blogger (and apparently cosmologist) Peter Coles. If you need more inspiration, he has plenty more topical Clerihews (from 2009) on his blog, Telescoper.
Here at the Zooniverse, we’ve been coming up with own Clerihews. Chris created one for Stuart Lynn (lead developer of Planet Hunters):
Old Stuart Lynn
may drink gallons of gin,
but his Planet Hunters site
turned out quite alright.
In turn, I’ve made one for Chris:
Dr. Chris Lintott
likes astrophysics a lot.
He came up with Galaxy Zoo
while having a drink or two.
We’d love to hear your science Clerihews either here in the comments or on twitter @the_zooniverse. I’m sure the subject can be one of the projects as well as a person…
Our advent calendar gets really festive today with the publication of Zooniverse Cocktails. If you make any of these, please do take a picture or two so we can share them around.
Tequila Solar Stormwatch
Pour 2 shots of tequila in a highball glass with ice, and top with orange juice. Stir. Slowly add a couple of dashes of grenadine by pouring onto the back of a spoon and letting it lie on the surface of the ice. The grenadine will slowly drop down into the drink as a sort of alcoholic mass ejection (AME).
Galaxy Zoo Spiral Cider
Pour two glasses of mulled cider into two identical glasses. Stir one anticlockwise, and the other clockwise. Once the drinks are spinning nicely drink them blindfolded and see if you can taste the difference.
Moon Zoo (on the) Rocks
Pour out a generous portion of Baileys into a tumblr and cut a Malteser in half. Drop the half-Malteser into your drink as your Apollo lander. You should try and film yourself making the drink on an anonymous sound stage in the remote United States.
The Milky Way Cocktail Project
Take a glass of chilled Prosecco, accompanied by a shot of Midori and a glacier cherry. See how many bubbles you can drink/find – watch out for red fuzzies.
Storm in a Teapcup (Old Weather)
2 shots of gin and one of chilled Earl Grey tea. Add 20 ml of lemon juice (to prevent scurvy) and a dash of sugar syrup. Serve in an English teacup with a twist of lemon peel.
Whale FM Cocktail
Place 2 cups of prawns, 4 tbsp mayonnaise, 1 tbsp creamed horseradish and 1 tbsp tomato ketchup into a mixing bowl. Stir to combine all the ingredients; make sure all the prawns are coated in sauce. Divide 2 cups of shredded lettuce between 4 large wine glasses and top with the prawns and sauce.
Decorate with a wedge of lime and a large prawn on the edge of the glass and serve with small slices of buttered brown bread.
The Ice Hunter
Straight-up vodka martini served with a twist (the twist is that there is no ice).
Planet Hunter’s Eclipse
Shake and strain 1.5 oz sloe gin and 0.5 oz gin into a cordial glass containing a cherry. Sink 0.5 oz of grenadine until just covering the cherry. Garnish with half a slice of orange, and serve.
During our last advent calendar we celebrated that our community had reached a total of 350,000 people. It’s been an incredible year. Several new projects, lots of fun and many scientific papers later – we expect to reach half a million Zooniverse users in the next day or so. Regardless of exactly when it happens, we want to say thank you to all of you ‘zooites’ out there for continuing to make our projects a big success.
Your feedback, dedication and clicks have really been paying off this year. We’ve seen multiple projects publish their first science results and there are many more on the way in 2012. Next year we expect to launch even more great projects that will allow citizen scientists to assist researchers in even more fields of work, across the world. Watch this space!
In the meantime – what exactly do 500,000 people look like? Wolfram Alpha reports that it’s the number of people who attended Woodstock in 1969. It also says that our community weigh roughly 35,000 metric tons, which is two-thirds the mass of the Titanic. The Zooniverse community generate 35 MW of power when considered as human batteries: that’s enough to supply 10,000 homes! Laid end-to-end 500,000 people stretch roughly 500 miles (~800 km) – which is of course how far the Proclaimers wold have walked.
500,000 people could fill Wembley Stadium 5 times over. Standing side-by-side they could fill the vatican, and there are only 9 armies in the world larger than the Zooniverse (China, USA, India, North Korea, Russia, South Korea, Pakistan, Iran and Turkey). We overtake turkey at 510,000 people – it won’t be long.
We You did it – our 500,000th citizen scientist was ‘OHMfighter’! Here’s to the next half million! We also wanted to point everyone to their ‘My Project’ pages on the Zooniverse home page, where you can see your classification counts for all our projects. Visit http://zooniverse.org/projects/current to see your stats.
We’re beginning on a new project utiltizing Galaxy Zoo data.
Some background: Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are accreting supermassive black holes at the centers of some galaxies. In some of these systems, we observe broad and narrow emission lines in the optical spectra whereas other systems only have narrow emission lines. (In the spectra of normal galaxies that don’t have an active nucleus, we generally don’t see these prominent emission lines. In AGN, photons from the accretion disk photoionize the surrounding gas, causing the emission lines we observe.)
The unified model for AGN explains these observational differences by invoking an obscuring torus (or doughnut) of dust and gas that surrounds the accretion disk feeding the black hole. For a helpful visualization, look here. (Keep in mind that this picture is “zoomed-in” to the center of the galaxy.) If this configuration is aligned so that we’re looking through the opening of the torus, we can see the emission from the accretion disk and gas that’s moving rapidly due to its proximity to the black hole (which causes the broad emission lines in the optical spectra, and the gas from this region is subsequently referred to as the “Broad Line Region”). These sources are classified as Type 1 AGN. If, however, the system is aligned such that the torus is edge-on, that accretion disk and fast moving gas is blocked from our view. We will therefore see emission from gas that is further away from the black hole but close enough to be photionized by accretion disk photons, producing narrow emission lines (and no surprise, this region is called the “Narrow Line Region”). These AGN are Type 2 AGN, sometimes referred to as “obscured AGN” since the central region is hidden from our view.
The hypothesis: These AGN live in galaxies. Are our optical classifications of Type1/Type2 related to the orientation of the host galaxy? Do Type 1 (face-on) AGN preferentially live in face-on galaxies? Do Type 2 (edge-on) AGN tend to inhabit edge-on galaxies? The issue of the alignment of the torus with host galaxy inclination has been studied quite a bit in the past. In local AGN (called Seyfert galaxies), there is a lack of Type 1 systems in edge-on galaxies, but Type 2 AGN seem live in galaxies with any orientation (Keel 1980, Schmitt et al. 1997, Simco et al. 1997, Kinney et al. 2000).
The project: These past studies have been limited to relatively small sample sizes (under 100 galaxies). The Sloan Digital Sky Survey has spectra for hundreds of thousands of objects and Galaxy Zoo has classified thousands of galaxies. Combining these two rich data sets, we can test the above hypothesis with a sample size of several thousand galaxies.
I will blog updates as the project proceeds, so stay tuned to see where this journey takes us!

Embed Instagram Into Website Problems
Im new here and im trying to embed an Instagram picture reel within my website using embedagram.com
The website platform im using is weebly. Weebly allows for a custom html element to be placed on the page, and i have no problems pasting the basic widget.
However i would like to edit the CSS so that it is bigger and the images fit my page better.
My page width is 954px This is the same width as the header and this is the width i would like the viewer to be. The height should be in proportion but does not really matter. Im trying to keep it even
I have the stylesheet and will see if i can attach it.
I'd like the centre image to be larger that the one on the left and right and I'd like the arrows to stand out, so they can be seen.
Im sure its just a case of changing a few pixel widths but cant figue out which ones.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Several Minnesota hitters find themselves on pace for career highs, and the culmination of some good offense early on has the team on pace to hit the most homeruns as a club in quite some time.†
The projections carry over to the pitchers side where some starters are having career years and where the suddenly sharp bullpen is putting up some solid numbers.†
** Francisco Liriano is on pace for a record of just 8-16. He has recently begun to turn things around, so the obvious hope is that the loss total doesn’t reach that point. Liriano is projected to strike out 160 hitters in a total of 178 innings pitched.
** Scott Baker missed some time due to injury, and got off to a slow start which has altered his projections. He hopes to continue his recent string of strong outings, but is currently on pace for a 12-12 record†with a total of 148 strikeouts in a career high 184 innings pitched.
** Nick Blackburn is on pace for a solid 3.10 ERA, but due to low run support midway through the season is projected for only a 12-8 record. The second-year pro is however on pace to pitch 4 complete games in an astounding 214 innings.
** Glen Perkins missed nearly a month, but with the exception of a few starts has been solid. The lefty is on pace to go 8-8 with a 4.38 ERA in only 148 innings of work.
** Kevin Slowey is on pace for an amazing 20-6 record in 180 innings of work. Due to two consecutive poor outings, Slowey is on pace for a 4.86 ERA. A few other numbers that stick out are his projections for strikeouts and walks. Slowey is on pace to sit down 150 hitters and walk just 30.
** Anthony Swarzak has only pitched in a few games, but has been recalled and is on pace to go 4-4 with a 3.90 ERA in a total of 54 innings. Time in the bullpen however could alter his projections.
** Joe Nathan is on pace for 42 saves and a solid 1.39 ERA. Considered on of the league’s best, Nathan is also on pace to strike out 82 hitters in only 64 innings of work.
** Matt Guerrier is on pace to rebound from a poor ’08 season with a 2.65 ERA. Guerrier is also projected to to appear in nearly half of the team’s games with 80 appearances. In one of the major stats for relievers, holds, Guerrier is on pace to finish near the top with 32.
** Jose Mijares, a year after posting a sub-1.00 ERA, is on pace for a very solid 2.16 ERA in 58 appearances. The lefty is also on pace to pitch a total of 50 innings and collect 22 holds.
** R.A. Dickey is on pace to post a 2.96 ERA in a total of 50 appearances and 96 innings. The long reliever is also projected to strike out 66 hitters.
No longer with the organization, Luis Ayala was excluded from the list. Phillip Humber, Jesse Crain, and Sean Henn were not included due to their demotions. Meanwhile major leaguers Brian Duensing and Bobby Keppel did not have†sufficient†stats for accurate projections.

Parents, carers and siblings of schoolchildren who live in the same Tameside household can now get access to regular coronavirus tests.
Tameside Council has confirmed that new groups are able to access asymptomatic testing following the full reopening of schools this week.
These include anyone in the same household, childcare bubble or support bubble of any primary or secondary school pupil.
People who live with primary or secondary school staff, or who belong to the same childcare or support bubble, can also now access asymptomatic testing.
Pupils and staff at both primary and secondary schools already have access to regular Covid-19 testing as part of the recent easing of lockdown.
Tameside Council says anyone who uses asymptomatic testing should do so twice a week, three or four days apart.
Primary school pupils are not being asked to test for coronavirus at this time.
Cllr Eleanor Wills, Tameside Council executive member for adult social care and population health, said: “Testing is an incredibly important tool in our efforts to control the virus, reduce transmission and protect one another, as people do begin to come back into more contact with one another in schools.
“It is great news that we’re able to provide such a robust testing programme for all those attending school and those who they come into contact with."
Asymptomatic tests are carried out using rapid lateral flow devices, which means that there is a result available in half an hour.
All eligible residents are encouraged to take up the rapid lateral flow Covid-19 testing offer to help reduce transmission, keep schools open and protect the community.
The tests can be conducted at home from collection points at Beeley Street car park, Hyde, and Darnton Road car park, Ashton-under-Lyne, and no appointment is necessary.
Testing for people with coronavirus symptoms will now take place at these sites from 8am to 12pm, before the site is deep cleaned ready for testing kit collection from 1.30pm to 7pm.
People can collect two packs at a time, each containing seven individual testing kits, and the result should be reported by calling 119 or visiting gov.uk/report-covid19-result
Anyone who develops coronavirus symptoms must still stay at home and book a PCR test at nhs.uk/coronavirus or by calling 119.

Hi, I’m Mia from Germany. I decided to give mSpy app a try after listening to the news report on registered online predators operating via social media and hunting for kids. I was scared to death. I’m sure victims’ parents were sure their kids would never fell for their luring. However, it happened. Anyway, I’d rather prevent than sort things out afterwards.
To me, it was hard to install and get started. I’m not good at tech.
The app is good at updating me on my kid’s present location. Love their notifications system. I get additional info on where and how much time she spent in an unknown place. Love the fact I can view people in the phone book and block them. I never had to but still it’s a great option, especially if your kid is bullied.
I monitor from time to time chatting via messengers and look through text messages. The Keylogger, keyword alerts are awesome. Use for sure. You might not use any other feature, but this one literally translates what your child is interested in. As well as bookmarks and browsing history. In a nutshell, it is a great monitoring tool.
It was hard to determine my kid’s smartphone version. She got it as a present. And I had physically do all the staff with her device. Hate it. Hope they will improve it. But in general I do not regret using it.

GP5 Postrock/ Emo/ Indie attempt C4C
View Full Version : GP5 Postrock/ Emo/ Indie attempt C4C
10-18-2009, 07:48 PM
I started this a million years ago, finally remembered it and decided to finish it off today. Still very short, but it's my first try at writing this kind of music.
Kinda started off as a Post-Rock attempt, but it ended up sounding more like Diary-era Sunny Day Real Estate kinda indie/emo. Anyways, take a listen pl0x, and will c4c:
EDIT: GP4 added

That was pretty good, I liked all the little riff fills you threw in there
10-19-2009, 01:25 AM
Awesome, i loved it
The intro is nice, good note choices. Bass fills it in well too. Then the electric kicks in and it beautiful. I especially like bars 26-32. Drums are good too, Bars 54 and 55 how you hit the 3 crashes then kick in with the hats ..very effective i use that lost too. anyways.. good tune, a solo would be nice
10-19-2009, 03:04 AM
You seem to encapsulate the best of post-hardcore and post-rock with this song. It would be nice if you could continue it, but it's best not to force an ending out just to have closure.
I like the punkish, At the Drive-In feel to the verse, and I see the Sunny Day Real Estate.
Very well done. I would go on with a longer crit (since this was a good piece), but this song is a bit short.
Here ya go...

Many of our products are listed on our website – you can follow the product categories to find what you are looking for, or you can type what you’re looking for in the search box on the website.

Obviously, price is all important. We don’t want to charge exorbitant fees, so we have worked hard on our pricing, to be fair, open and competitive with our rates. There are plenty of options for you to get a quote from us. Our hire rates are clearly listed on the product pages for each hire period available for the equipment. Items which are priced only with a 'Weekly' hire period can be hired for less time but the minimum price payable is the stated 'Weekly' rate. Product page prices are exclusive of accessories and consumables (required or optional), Damage Waiver and VAT - all of which are calculated as your go through the online checkout. You can get a quote from us via the online Livechat service, or you can call us on 0800 808 9127 (DIY) or 0800 808 9696 (Trade).

If you don’t want to call us, simply request a call back via the product page or the Livechat feature on our website, and we will call you back or email you with a quote.
If you are hiring any products which require consumables, such as cleaning solution, we can also supply this equipment for our products. If you let us know how many you need, we can quote you for that over the phone or online. If you’re not sure how many you need, just give our hire team a call or request a call back - we will be able to advise you. Any un-used consumables can be returned at the end of the hire for a refund. Though, there is no obligation to use our consumables, you can use your own as long as they are compatible.
You can book a hire either online or over the phone. Our new checkout process makes it simple for you to book a hire online and pay by credit or debit card. If you would rather speak to a person to book the hire, you call us on 0800 808 9127 (DIY) or 0800 808 9696 (Trade).

Most hires can be delivered from just £7.50 each way – some companies charge up to 3x as much! If you would rather pick up the tools yourself, you can! Just be sure to pre-book the hire online or over the phone before you go to store.
Whether you are going to the store to collect or having the hire delivered to you, you will need to have two forms of ID. One will need to be a photo ID, such as a driving license or a passport, and the other needs to be a proof of address, such as a utilities bill.

on June 7, 2013 I purchased a Ready Pac Bistro Chicken Caesar Salad from Wal-Mart in Clarksville, IN (zip code- 47129) and on June 8, 2013 I decided to take my salad with me to work for lunch. Around 1:00pm I proceeded to eat my salad, two minutes into eating it I felt something crunchy in my mouth to my knowledge I thought it was maybe just a salad leaf or something, but the flavor was disgusting I immediately spitted into the trash and noticed there was a bug in the mix. I immediately went to vomit. That's not the last of it I decided to dig around my salad to check for more and SUPRISE!!!!!! There was a big juicy bug sautéed in my salad with legs and wings still attached. My coworkers took pictures of it amazed and disgusted at the same time. I contacted the Wal-Mart I purchased it from and the manager Tammy acted like it wasn't a big deal and said just bring it back and they will give me another one. I WILL NEVER GET A SALAD FROM WALMART AGAIN. I am truly frustrated and I think that it is absolutely ridiculous that something like this is packaged up in the food we eat. This is beyond unsanitary I don’t even no what type of bug it is I never seen it before something needs to be done about this. I will be contacted the U.S department of agriculture and health department immediately.

Who would make a good parent?
(Hey, what are you searching for?)
(Obviously you've learnt when to look into the lens.)
Holding a baby is a delightful, as well as delicate, job. Because a newborn baby's neck muscles are quite weak and hence has little control over the head, when holding an infant, it is of utmost importance to support the head and neck at all times to prevent the head from flopping back.
While many people would not try to hold a young baby, some do enjoy having an infant in their arms. However, those who want to start a family will have to do it sooner or later, and what's more, they will have to bathe their newborns as well (another tough but enjoyable task).
Some of my colleagues came to visit Fanne and Ronne last Saturday and certainly they all had to perform a ritual, from which one would hardly escape when paying a visit to a newborn baby—holing the infant. Thus, the two parents and three guests had their photos shot as a memento of this event.
Whether single or in a relationship or married, as none of our visitors has already started a family, last Saturday's visit was absolutely a good exercise for them.
So, who would make a good parent?
(Lucy, single, a member in my database construction team, who started working in 'my' office even before I started)
(Jing-Ting, in a relationship, my teaching assistant, who was awarded Distinguished Teaching Assistant for two terms in a row)
(Carla, married, a former member in my database construction team, who still works in the same office with me)

last evening at the ngma audi, thanks to asia society, we finally screened cheuk kwan's "chinese restaurants" - tho just the india n argentina parts. almost full the house was...watched in rapt attention n seemed to enjoy the film. it's so easy when you are presenting someone else's film... i remember the nervousness n misery i went thru at my film screenings...but this was different! the discussion though was derailed by a bad start n we never recovered from that...but clearly the film worked n was well-received. in fact, there were 8 firm orders for a box set of 5dvds!!
to celebrate, went to ling's pavilion for a sumptuous dinner...where they stuffed our faces silly!...pork , prawns, chiken, corn curd, stew, bacon steamed rice n noodles!...aaah! a perfect way to end the day!...cheers cheuk!
re-watching the film...listening to mr chiang of casa china in buenos aires made me ponder about our own smallness...here was man who left taiwan 40yrs ago changed 3boats n has now lived half his life in argentina. his wife n son live in new york n there's this loneliness n acceptance, resilience n courage you begin to respect. his world view is almost zen-like...his concept of home, of identity makes me wonder of the sena campaign here in bombay...when will we ever learn?...
closer home, the lives of baba n nini ling are played out...so different they are from each other...i cringe when a smartypants nri starts the discussion asking if "they" can speak hindi...but to my (later) disgust, i do not dismiss the premise of his question...n grow increasingly protective of them in the course of the discussion...i live n learn!

Heaviest: 266 lb. Surgery Day 7/8/14: 251 lb. Now 10/24/14: 199 lb.
3 months and 16 days since my vsg surgery.
Today I weigh 199 lbs and I am ecstatic. 52 pounds less since surgery and 67 pounds down total. In my pictures I am wearing a size 16 regular jeans and a XL t-shirt. I am right on the verge of switching to a size 14 jeans. I haven’t tried a 14 on yet but my 16’s are getting baggy 🙂 When I started this journey I was wearing a size 22W jeans and 22/24 plus shirt. My under ware are down to size 8 from 10! I haven’t bought any new bras yet but I need to… cha cha’s are shrinking …lol.
Still shooting for 800 calories, 80 grams of protein, 8 glasses of water a day. I am not hitting the water goal. Calories and protein are going pretty good. This week I started exercising on a more regular basis which definitely led me to the 199 mark this morning.

Asking the internet about language learning is a dangerous thing. Paced repetition. Flashcards. YouTube. Sitcoms. Speaking partners. Post-it notes in your refrigerator. We could go on. Each of these is helpful in its own right, but humans like us (even ambitious ones) need to prioritize.
Being rather passionate about this topic, we’ve taken on the task of synthesizing the wild jungle of advice about language learning. We think you’ll find that it mirrors the Staircase program itself: curated, practical, and unabashedly entertaining.
This is not a set-it-and-leave-it kind of resource either – it’s alive! Stay tuned as we develop topics more and more deeply based on questions and feedback from language enthusiasts like you. Don’t believe me? Try to leave a comment down below and see how long it takes before your question becomes an article all its own.
Without further ado, here are the three starting points we recommend for every level.
Beginner (taking your first steps in French)
- Focus on becoming confident with 📍seven simple sentences. This will help you build that vocabulary starter pack, while building confidence in your pronunciation and grammar.
- Did we mention confidence? While long-term goals matter, short-term goals are just as important. Set out to achieve a milestone that you know is in reach.
- Seek out mentoring or instruction from someone(s) uniquely qualified to teach someone like you. They should be supportive and enthusiastic about your learning goals!
Intermediate (knowing enough to keep the conversation going)
- Expand your vocabulary from concrete subjects (like directions and introductions) to topics that people around you find engaging. The goal here is to get free practice by making others want to speak at length!
- Show that you care about French culture. Strike up friendships with people who don’t speak your language very well. Pay attention to social cues and culture insights.
- Be humble about pronunciation. While a some students are really natural, they’re few and far between. Ask others specific questions about best to improve your accent.
Advanced (moving from communication to expression)
- Shift your mindset from thinking about yourself as an advanced student of French to an everyday user of the language. This raises the bar so that you don’t plateau.
- Compare your proudest examples of writing or speaking in your own language and compare them to your proudest examples in French. Look for stylistic differences.
- Make French immersion a part of your everyday experience. Remember, you’re not a student anymore. It’s time to live French, breathe French, and watch French, and so on.
As you dig deeper into these resources, we would be remiss not to mention that the Staircase method, as our American readers might say, ‘eats its own dog food.’ Everything that we preach, we also incorporate into the Staircase. Why not head on over and give it a try?
Written with my friend and fellow teacher, Eric from the Global School of English.

Have you wondered how they grow seedless watermelons? Well, wonder no more. This article will tell you exactly how to do it.
Diane Relf of the Virginia Cooperative Extension states that watermelon should be grown in warm temperatures. Therefore, experts would probably recommend that watermelon plants be germinated inside a controlled temperature environment where the grower can keep the temperatures above 75 degrees Fahrenheit. Ms. Relf suggests the plants be placed in a sterile soil mix at a room temperature of 75 - 85 degrees Fahrenheit. Once the watermelon vine (or runners) are 6 to 8 inches long, they can be transferred to the garden area outside. Even then, the soil need to be at least 70 degrees Fahrenheit.
To get fruit, the seedless watermelon (called triploids) must be grown next to the regular watermelon (called diploid). The seedless watermelon is sterile and unable to pollinate by itself. Therefore, the regular watermelon assists in the pollination process for the seedless watermelon to get fruit. So, assuming you are doing a small garden, dig the holes where you want to plant the watermelons.
In the first hole, plant a "regular or diploid" watermelon plant. In the next two holes, plant the seedless (or triploid) plant. Continue to alternate until all your plants are in the ground. Mark the planting orientation so you can distinguish your seedless watermelon from your regular watermelon once they mature.
Your job is done! Now you know how to grow seedless watermelons. Sit back and in a couple of weeks, you can enjoy them. You will have the regular watermelons too, but you can give those away or sell them at the market.
Things You Will Need
- Diploid watermelon seeds
- Triploid watermelon seeds
- Land ready for growing crop
- Watermelon grows in warm weather. If you cannot germinate indoors, Diane Relf recommend you wait until the soil is above 70 degrees Fahrenheit before planting.
- Experts say watermelon seeds are only good for about 12 months or less so if you don't plant them in time, you will lose them.

November is indeed a month where we take a good look at all of the things we’re grateful for. Expressing gratitude is something we encourage practicing year round, and even daily, to maintain a sense of humility and balance, which can be a huge boost to support our mental and spiritual health. There are so many ways we can do this, from vocal expression to written word, and even in our meditation practice. But the key is to really FEEL gratitude when we’re expressing it! And making this a ritual doesn’t have to be a daunting or overbearing task, you can simply think it or say it with the littlest things such as when someone holds the door open for you or when you and your family arrive home safely after a trip. At the end of the day, the little things we are grateful for are just as important as the bigger stuff, if not more so.
While we’re on the topic, it’s extra important to remember to carry that sense of gratitude over into the holiday season, especially during all the hustle and bustle that inevitably surrounds us during this time of year.
Here’s a little idea…set an intention to carry this sense of grace and gratitude with you throughout the season in an effort to stay mindful of all the little things that mean so much. Every day make an effort to list at least 3 things you’re grateful for to help you stay grounded and truly feel the magic of the holiday spirit!
We have so much to be thankful for here at Sage Health so we thought it’d be fun to compile a list of 10 things we’re grateful for and share it with you…
- Our absolutely amazing clients and patients, we wouldn’t be here without you!
- Our staff, we couldn’t function without our incredibly talented and dedicated team.
- The art of massage…from an amazing therapist — ahhhhhhh!
- The ancient healing practice and wisdom of acupuncture
- Chiropractic care – to realign and help us hold it all together!
- Organic skin care and the special touch of an aesthetician
- Holistic medicine – herbs, tonics, essential oils, and ALL of the things!
- Having our wellness center in the beautiful beach town of Encinitas
- And last but definitely not least, we are so grateful for our loved one’s — family, friends and, yes, even our beloved pets!

Not good enough. You need ice cubes in the jar to keep it cool.
Not good enough. You need ice cubes in the jar to keep it cool.
UVB 76 stops at 1:07:37! It comes back briefly and then stops again when Jeff coughs at 1:09:30. did the world end and no one noticed yet? did Jeff's cough awaken a sleeper agent?
@Jeff Please remove that noise next video. It was hella annoying.
05:22 I am rolling my eyes at this rant.
the buzzing is fine if you do it for a good minute or two but come on. I cant listen to this.
I find UVB-76 soothing. I am considering making a loop of it and playing it in my bedroom to help me sleep. -_-
Yes, really. :)
I toned out the buzz after 15 minutes or so, just stopped hearing it.
That noise is awesome!
Jeff looks like he's on crack lately, maybe it's the sick beard.
@Jeff Thanks for doing these
So this is actually a number station disguised as Jar Time?
Have all y'all ever considered putting these out as podcasts?
I wouldn't expect a big production like the BombCast, but the occasional happy fun bonus show would be cool.
Maybe this already exists and I just don't know it.
I demand the UVB-76 be present in all future content, video or otherwise.
I love that the numbers station is highlighting the users with OCD. Doesn't bother me, I can filter it out just by, y'know, actually listening to what Jeff's saying.
If it's bothering you, try this: Pretend you're sitting in a fallout shelter with Jeff, just shooting the shit, and the radio is just something that always has to be on in the background as you live your post-nuclear, underground existence. It's like Fallout roleplaying!
@Jeff To your point about not drawing lessons from the history of internet rage and the way it pans out: It's especially interesting coming from some of the Giant Bomb user base who I'd (a) hope/expect would be a little more savvy with their reactions and behaviour, and (b) might have learned something about change from both the Giant Bomb implementation of subscriptions and the site's subsequent move to CBSi.
Has the world ended because of either of those big Giant Bomb events that initially had people worried, even angry? Nope. Things have settled down into a business-as-usual groove, and I bet people barely give any of that shit a second thought.
TL;DR - Fuckin' kids, man. Know what I mean?
That antenna affect is quite annoying...
Unfortunately, I have to agree. Couldn't listen for longer than 10 minutes. Sorry, Jeff.
There's an amusing bit in one of The Amazing Atheist's videos from a couple years back where he's answering the question "Have you ever changed your mind from an argument with someone else." His answer, true to his style of course, was (paraphrasing) "Fuck no, I don't change my position in front of someone else, I continue arguing with them, move on, then wait until a long time goes by, act like I did exhaustive research on the topic myself and then pretend I came to this new position because of how enlightened I am; It's a win-win."
I'm always reminded of that whenever I see a new controversy come about on this site concerning the nature of video game reviews and how Giant Bomb does them, seeing all kinds of well written posts about how reviews could change, or I'm reminded of it whenever I see some new diatribe from Jeff or someone else on the staff talking about how innovative and radical this site somehow is, while it continues the "It's like a newspaper!" style of game reviews.
The truth is, this site, and many others, know that the old way of doing game reviews is, actually, garbage. Deep down, the have to know. But reviews draw a lot of traffic, and they don't want to appear like they don't actually know what the fuck they're doing by bending to outside pressure to radically overhaul their review process, so they keep doing them. We get new rationales for why traditional written-reviews-with-a-score have to continue with each time the question is asked, with the underlying implication that we on the outside just don't "get" it.
It's interesting to see Jeff peek down the slippery slope of changing the game reviews process, because eventually, all the changes are meaningless. If you keep boiling down the process, it becomes clear that the process itself is totally fucked and outdated, kept on only as gold stars for people in the business and pure tradition. Jeff's explanation for why game reviews haven't changed here yet was literally just "Well, it's hard." It's not that hard, the only thing that's hard about making that decision is that you'll be losing page views and free advertising.
Game reviews changing on this site seems, to me, to be an inevitability. The question of how to change reviews, or whether to do them at all, will be answered sometime, I have no doubt about that. But it seems to me that it's only taking so long because, when those changes do come, and they will, Giant Bomb and other sites will want to make it seem like they locked themselves away for months giving the issue careful study and consideration, and that they've come up with an enlightened path forward. When really, it ain't so tough.
Sorry one more post to add to the did not watch/listen to as the buzzing sound was driving me crazy
from what i heard it would have been a nice talk though
@msavo: No it plays throughout.
For an 80 minute long video, it kind of makes this unlistenable
games are growing, they're learning, living . . . it'll be a mixture from a game company and a tech company/think tank . . . maybe I'll get that Sim Universe game that's so complex you're really an electronic god
Why the fuck is the UVB-76 transmission on throughout this? Between this and the Space Jam novel, I want to give Jeff a swirly.
My 1st time here, great show :)
Bzzz, Bzzz, Bzzz, Bzzz, Bzzz, Bzzz, Bzzz.
Fanboys exist in their own strange echo chamber where any dissenting opinion is biased or uninformed and things like review bombing Metacritic are making a huge difference and where the narrative ONLY suits their worldview. Capcom isn't to blame, even though they signed off on the project and contributed to it every step of the way, there apparently WAS a Devil May Cry 5, even though there obviously wasn't going to be, Dante went from being "too emo," to "too much of a brash smartass" to "not brash/smartassy ENOUGH" at different points throughout the development with absolutely ZERO self-awareness or revelation from those shouting loudest. And the irony is that these will ALSO be the same people commenting on a Call of Duty or Madden video about lack of innovation, when what they REALLY mean is "lack of innovation in games that I don't care about in the first place." Because anytime someone wants to innovate what THEY'RE passionate about, it's somehow "ruining" it.
If the game flops (which DmC may, the sales numbers are low, but Ninja Theory isn't exactly a huge team, so it might be high enough), they'll pat themselves on the back that they helped torpedo an artistic work that people depended on to make a living and if it does well, they'll never speak of it again and just go onto whatever outrage they can find NEXT (the new Dragon Age not being enough like the first Dragon Age, which itself wasn't enough like Baldur's Gate 2 should do nicely).
This is entertainment.

Anritsu Introduces Enhanced SkyBridge Tools That Shortens DAS Testing Times by as Much as 90%
- Cloud-based Test Management Tool for Handheld Analyzers Replaces Time-consuming Manual Procedures to Provide Benefits to Operators, Installers, and Contractors -
MORGAN HILL, Calif., March 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Anritsu Company introduces a new version of its award-winning SkyBridge Tools™ cloud-based test management tool that reduces the time associated with testing and verifying distributed antenna systems (DAS) by as much as 90%. With enhanced features, SkyBridge Tools can serve as a DAS Test Management Tool that automatically creates detailed test plans based upon easily imported test criteria to greatly simplify installation and commissioning of in-building wireless systems for more timely reimbursement of completed work.
Built on a Microsoft architecture, the new version of SkyBridge Tools brings a more simplified test process to the DAS installation workflow. It accepts information from iBwave designer, Excel, and customer-supplied test criteria. It quickly and automatically processes this data to create comprehensive test plans that enable test sequencing, job progress tracking, trace judgement, and report generation. Also included in the new SkyBridge Tools is a unique easyTest feature that allows a set of one-button instrument control scripts to be created from a test plan. Necessary tests as well as accurate instrument setups, limit lines, and required file names for the resulting traces are included in the script, dramatically reducing test time, miscommunications, and errors.
Reports can be generated in a variety of different formats to automate what has traditionally been a time-consuming process. Users can select PDFs, zipped files, or CSV format, with one row per test, to meet virtually any customer requirement.
Because it is an automated process, SkyBridge Tools is a significant advancement in improving the workflow of installing and commissioning DAS, which may require 1,000 to 15,000 traces, photos, and other deliverables to verify that the installation of a single system meets performance standards. The result is a more efficient method that leads to less time testing, more accurate tests, and reliable payment for work completed. SkyBridge is fast, accurate, and reliable.
Each segment of the communications installation ecosystem realizes significant benefits from SkyBridge Tools. It is very useful for contractors or owners/operators who need an efficient method to verify that their work is complete before they receive payment. DAS system installers can work more efficiently as SkyBridge Tools automates the collection and validation of thousands of traces. SkyBridge Tools can also be used by tower installation contractors who need to efficiently show their work meets customer standards. Network operators, public safety contractors, aircraft builders, and ship builders can reap benefits from SkyBridge Tools, as well.
SkyBridge Tools can be used with a number of different Anritsu field solutions to create a complete DAS test solution. It can be integrated with the industry leading Site Master™ "L" and "E" series handheld cable and antenna analyzers, PIM Master™ MW82119B portable PIM analyzer, Cell Master™ "E" series base station analyzers, and BTS Master™ MT8220T. It can also be used with Anritsu fiber field solutions, including Network Master™ MT9090A, ACCESS Master™ series, and CMA multi-layer network test and measurement platform.

In today’s politically correct world, I suppose I should greet everyone with “Happy Holidays.” I thought that the subject matter of my blog today would be something about holiday greetings but thousands of people already have written more articulately than I ever could!
I wish I could write like Khalid Hosseini. I just finished reading his new book “And the Mountains Echoed.” Along with his other two books, these are the best fiction books I have ever read. I highly recommend reading all of them.
Anyway, I had an absolutely lousy 1-hour run today. I started by wanting to do two hours but went out a bit too fast and did a few hills. This took everything out of me in an hour and I simply stopped. On a positive note, my lungs feel pretty good and none of my body parts are aching. I feel pretty fresh and am optimistic about 2014. I do have my doubts about Boston Marathon qualification in March because my speed and endurance are not quite what they were a few months back.

ArrayDatabases 2011 : Workshop on Array Databases
Call For Papers
Workshop on Array Databases
co-located with EDBT/ICDT 2011, Uppsala / Sweden
submission deadline: December 31, 2011
From the fundamental collection paradigms known in conceptual modeling - sets, bags, lists, and arrays - it is the array concept which has long been neglected by the database community. However, as sensors are becoming ubiquitous and inexpensive, and as further simulations become large, multi-dimensional arrays are attributed a large share of today's archive spaces. Geoscientific examples include 1-D sensor time series, 2-D satellite imagery, 3-D x/y/t image time series and x/y/z geology data, and 4-D x/y/z/t climate and ocean simulation data. A similar wealth of array data can be found in space, life, and other sciences. Sparse arrays appear in OLAP. In summary, arrays (by practitioners often referred to as raster data) comprise the natural representation of n-dimensional sensor, array, and statistics data. Typically these data come in massive volumes, with Petabyte - in future Exabyte - sizes for single arrays.
Unleashing this huge data reservoir for online analytics by scientists, industry, government, and citizens represents a major information services challenge. As traditional databases do not support large arays, in today's practice ad-hoc implementations prevail, often done by service providers themselves and centered around some particular data formats. Databases are hardly involved for array management. Many researchers believe, however, that database technology can offer its traditional benefits, such as information integration, flexibility of query language, scalability, and dynamic optimization, on arrays as well.
Currently no forum is existing which expressly concentrates on array databases. Filling this gap, this workshop will gather experts interested in theory, architecture, applications, standardization, and any other relevant aspect of array services. In the closing panel, foundation will be laid towards a research agenda for this emerging field.
Topics of Interest
Submissions of original research contributions and software demonstrations are invited for all array relevant topics, including - but not limited to - the ones below:
array theory: algebras and calculi
query languages for massive array data analytics
logical and physical optimization
array database architectures, including both servers and clients
distribution and virtualization
applications and standardization, such as in Earth, Space, and Life Sciences
beyond arrays: meshes and other space-time varying data
This one-day workshop on March 25, 2011 will be co-located with EDBT/ICDT 2011 at Uppsala, Sweden. Workshop participants will have to register for EDBT/ICDT; attendance to all workshops will be included in the overall registration fee.
submission deadline: December 31, 2011
notification to authors: January 15, 2011

Never has a monument spun so many parodies, they are ENDLESS!! Spanning over a century, and claming a suicidal chick...in September of 1932, Peg Entwistle, a resident of Beachwood Canyon, committed suicide by jumping to her death from the letter H. You can read all about that on my buddy Scott's site by click-a-dicking here! It is a time-honored symbol of Hollywood. It has come to define Hollywood in many ways. It is the most used establishing shot in film. The first thing many visitors look for when they get to Hollywood....but just how did the 450 feet long, 45 feet tall, sign get there and what exactly is the deeeaaal of it annnyway?? Ever hear of a town in Florida called Hollywood?? Well...vwala, Hollywood Cali, was actually named after the city of Hollywood, Florida! It was named in 1887 by Mrs. Daeida Wilcox, the wife of the town's founder, Harvey Wilcox. Mrs. Wilcox, while on a train, met a lady who was talking to her about her summer home in Florida in a seaside town called Hollywood. Mrs. Wilcox fell in love with the name...thus Hollywood, California was born.
In the late 1800's, the only talent in Hollywood was that of the real world farmer. Sunset Blvd. looked very different back then! By the early 1900's, Hollywood was becoming a mecca for filmmakers who were moving faaar west to escape Edison's patent on Motion Picture cameras. Hollywood was the perfect location not just because of the perfect weather, but it was faar from Edison's expensive patents. By 1910, studios were being built all over Los Angeles. Some farm barns became studios by day, and stables for farm animals by night. With word spreading, Hollywood was growing fast and the folks relocating weren't just folk with an interest in film, real estate developers swooped in as well. In 1923, a real estate company by the name of Hollywoodland Real Estate Group, come up with what has become, to say the least, the longest real estate advertising idea in history. The real estate group got in contact with a man by the name of Thomas Fisk Goff who owned a sign company to erect thirteen letters facing south atop Mt. Lee...in Hollywood. Goff designed, and commenced, with his crew, to building the sign. Each of the letters were 30 feet wide, and 50 feet in height. The sign was built with logs intended for telephone poles and barn roofing at a cost of $21,000.00. Holes were punched through the sign to help relieve stress caused by the winds. In only a few months, the sign was unveiled July 13, 1923...complete with 4,000 light bulbs which would twinkle and was visible up to 25 miles away at night. It spelled H O L L Y W O O D L A N D. The sign was to only last 18 months...(8 decades later..it still stands - minus the L A N D at the end. You have seen it time and time again, but what the hell, see it again here, taken by yours truly in 1996). The reality company hired locals that lived in cabins behind the sign to maintain it. The sign stayed strong, until 1929.
In 1929, the stock market crash delivered a huge blow to the Hollywoodland Real Estate Group. They were left unable to mantain the sign and had to abandon it. It would stay unmanned until the 1940's when The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce would form a committee to maintain it. began a contract with the City of Los Angeles Parks Department to repair and rebuild the sign. The contract stipulated that "L A N D" be removed to spell just "Hollywood." The deal was signed and done. Before it could be put into effect, the first O splintered and broke off, resembling a lowercase u, and the third O fell down completely, leaving the severely dilapidated sign reading "HuLLYWO D". On top of this, and in the nights follwing, the lone caretaker of the sign at the time, Albert Kothe, was driving to the sign one night rather 'inebriated', and crashed his truck into the 'H'. It destroyed his truck and finished the 'H', however, he...and his whiskey emerged unharmed!
The L A N D was removed, the sign patched up, and it would stand in glory until the 1970's. The sign had become visably weathered, namely the 'D'. The Hollywood Kawanis Club raised the funds to repair but soon after the third "O" took a tumble down the hill, followed by an arsonist setting fire to the 'L'. The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce commisioned a crew to acess the damage at the prospect of replacing the whole sign. The result was a pricetag of a quarter of a million dollars. Knowing they could not swing such a hefty amount, the Chamber was about to call it quits, and the media..heeey!!
Stars stepped in from all corners of Hollywood. Hugh Hefner held a gala at the Playboy Mansion. Nine donors gave $27,777 for each letter to be restored.
H - Terrence Donnelly, publisher of the Hollywood Independent Newspaper
O - Giovanni Mazza, Italian movie producer
L - Les Kelley, originator of the Kelley Blue Book
L - Gene Autry
Y - Hugh Hefner
W - Andy Williams
O - Warner Bros. Records
O - Alice Cooper, in memory of Groucho Marx
D - Dennis Lidtke
Pat Sajak was going to buy a letter but backed out, apparently pissed he couldn't buy a vowel. (That's a cheesy joke, but I couldn't resist!)
So the sign would never reach the state of disrepair it had seen, the California Attorney General assigned rights and responsibilities to three government agencies in 1992 for the sign. The City of Los Angeles owns the land where the sign stands. The City of Hollywood owns the licensing rights for the image of the sign. And the Hollywood Sign Trust was assigned to maintain, repair, and to perform any capital improvements to the sign, for the benefit of the public.
In 2000, the Hollywood Sign Trust hired Panasonic to install a state-of-the-art security system, with a large closed circuit, Internet-based surveillance network, which can be monitored 24/7 over the Internet, to protect the sign from vandals and fire. The security system was upgraded again in 2005. Since the security system is Internet-based, anyone on the Internet can watch over the sign 24 hours a day on its live web cam, located at: www.hollywoodsign.org/247.html
It is illegal to hike to the sign ... but my buddy Scott (findadeath.com), had an interesting experience. ;)
The sign stands as a true monument and, for many locals from Hollywood, as a true testiment to the strength and endurance that is Hollywood.
**ST JAMES OF HUBPAGES ADDS THESE TIDBITS...
The original Hollywood sign was placed in a storage facility after it was taken down. No one was aware that the company hired to remove the sign had understood its historical significance and elected to store it rather than dispose of it as was planned. The sign remained in storage until it was purchased by noted collector of rare and unusual memorabilia, and famous artist, Bill Mack in 2007. Bill intends to use the metal facing from the sign as a canvas,and he plans to paint the likenesses of the "great "movie stars from the Golden Years Of Hollywood."
It is this metal that many young actors and actresses climbed Mount Lee to touch it and have pictures taken with it for luck. It's the same metal that one actress stood upon and jumped off of... ending her life and forever changing the meaning of the sign from "all that glitters to the city of broken dreams."
•The new Hollywood Sign was unveiled live on November 14, 1978, on Hollywood's 75th anniversary, before a television audience
of 60 million.
It is illegal to make alterations to the Hollywood sign. Even though the City has allowed it to happen in the past, on occasion for commercial purposes. Current city policies do not permit changes to be made, due to the incidents that have happened in the past.
But here are some of the more famous modifications:
•HOLYWOOD - September 1987, for Pope John Paul II's arrival
•OLLYWOOD - July 1987, during Iran-Contra hearings
•CALTECH - May 1987, on Hollywood's 100th birthday
•FOX - April 1987, promotion for the TV network
•HOLLYWOOD II - April 1986, to mark revitalization of area
•RAFFEYSOD - January 1985, meaning never determined
•HOLLYWEED - December 1983, for a movie filming
•GO NAVY - November 1983, before a game at the Rose Bowl
•HOLLYWEED - January 1976, noting new state marijuana law ; 2017 unknown.. Perhaps for fun

It’s nice when the sun doesn’t set in the summer until about 10 PM however in the winter all my plants die in the darkness but not anymore. I use low cost daylight bulbs with clamp lights and I replace some of my regular lighting fixtures with them as well. There are higher intensity lights than what I am showing here but I do not have the box any longer to compare what it is I have. Look for the ones that say ‘daylight’, nearly everything I looked at in stock at Lowe’s or other home renovation stores would have worked for what I need so I went with cost efficiency. You want at least 1600 lumens and something that falls on the light spectrum at 5000K or higher.
When doing research I find most people were using shop lights and I have had no issue with them. The light fixtures can be clipped onto things or hung as a pendant, the hood is designed to house and focus a high intensity light for long hours so it works perfect as a plant light you can place it anywhere easily and safely though some types of bulbs will give off more light than others. There are two main types of hoods for these lights, a narrow and a wider focus of the light. As long as they aren’t to close or too far away they should live happily under the artificial lights. You can buy a light meter if you are not certain about distance and placement. Lighting timers cost only a few dollars so you don’t have to worry about forgetting to turn the lights on and off.
In addition to this lighting I also group my smaller plants around my aerogardens.

The Savoia was designed by Il Croccantino, just the right size for ladyfinger biscuits, as the name suggests. Try it with a Tiramisù mousse placed on a coffee-dipped ladyfinger base, and voilà! The most demanding chefs use it to make a Tiramisù semifreddo with mascarpone cream, coffee and cocoa, for an exquisite, unprecedented dessert, an alternative way of serving a typical Italian dish. Others favour a more practical and rapid approach and use two or more flavours of ice cream to fill it as though it were a small bowl as served in ice cream parlours. As we have already said, you are free to choose how to fill and decorate our products: go ahead and fulfil your desires and fantasies! This product is most popular in the catering sector: the Savoia is a capacious dessert perfect for enjoying in company. The colourful and delicious versions of the monoporzione range are highly requested for birthdays and other celebrations.

Who is Appliance Champion? If you’ve never heard of us, let us introduce ourselves. We offer appliance repair to Grapevine, Southlake, Keller, and the Dallas area. Basically, we help you get on with your life when one of your appliances decides to quit working. We understand how inconvenient it can be to be without your appliance—they are the definition of convenience—and so, we do all that is in our power to get to your home as soon as possible and hopefully fix whatever is wrong with your appliance. To learn more about what we do, keep reading.
Washer & Dryer Repair
If you’ve been keeping up with our blogs, you will have read all about washer repair and, more specifically, the solutions to possible problems with your washer. We offer washer and dryer repair of main brands such as LG, Maytag, GE, Bosch, Electrolux, Frigidaire, Kenmore, Samsung, Speed Queen, and Whirlpool. Often, there are easy solutions to fixing your washer or dryer. However, we at Appliance Champion have the skills to fix both easy and complicated repairs.
Our ranges are a crucial part of our kitchen. Whether you are an amateur chef who uses multiple dishes and utensils to fix your meals or you’re someone who messes up the box-recipe for macaroni and cheese, everyone uses the range in their kitchen, and being without it severely handicaps your ability to make meals for yourself and your family. We want you to know that we will be there when your range stops working like it used to. We understand that ranges aren’t easy to fix, and for this reason, we have invested the time and the proper tools so that we can be the reliable appliance repair company that you know you can call.
The microwave was an accidental invention, but one that we are all thankful for. Can you imagine not having the convenience of, after a long day, simply heating up a meal in the microwave? Can you image having to do all your cooking using your range and oven? We don’t want to think about it either! If your microwave stops working, we at Appliance Champion will do our very best to be at your door as soon as possible so that you don’t have to be without your beloved microwave for long.
Our refrigerators are like our microwaves—it’s hard to imagine living without one! When your refrigerator goes out, we know how crucial it is to get it fixed as soon as possible. Food sitting in a refrigerator that isn’t working is susceptible to spoilage only hours after the fridge goes out. We at Appliance Champion realize how expensive it can be to replace food not only in your refrigerator, but also the adjoining freezer. If you call us, we try to be there looking at your fridge the day that you call. We service many main brands including Whirlpool, GE, Maytag, LG, and many more.
Unlike our fridges, microwaves, and ranges, being without our dishwasher won’t cost us money due to wasted food or cause us not to be able to make our favorite microwave dinner. However, being without a dishwasher is annoying. Many of us have become incredibly reliant on not having the chore of washing the dishes. We at Appliance Champion don’t care whether you use your dishwasher every day or not, being without this convenient appliance isn’t fun, and we will do our very best to get to the bottom of the problem as soon as we can.
Need Appliance Repair?
We at Appliance Champion realize that you could call anyone and that you could even try to repair your appliance yourself. However, we hope you will choose us. Why? We truly care about our clients. We will truly try to get to your home as soon as possible to help you get whatever appliance isn’t working back up and running so you can get back to life as usual as soon as possible. Our contractors have the knowledge, experience, tools, and parts to perform the job that you need done well the first time. To learn more about the services that we offer to Appliance Champion, visit our website!

In a video that speaks (hilariously) for itself, a pet pig furiously humps part of an armchair, thrusting his little crotch into it over and over until the hot and heavy action prompts him to tumble off.
But the porker won't let that slow him down. Oh no. Watch him climb right back up and really let that piece of furniture have it now:
NOTE: no animals or armchairs were harmed in the making of this video.
In other recent pig news, did you see the pig who is friends with those dogs? Totes. Adorbs.

One of the cool things you notice if you blog long enough, is that thoughts seem to run in cycles. You'll also find that it's not uncommon to have blog entries sync with other bloggers. So, I grinned when I went for my daily laugh at Joanna Jenkins' blog, The Fifty Factor to read an hysterical story about her husband's great idea of hooking up her best friend with an acquaintance of his. She's lucky she still has a BFF. I had this post already in the works when I read her piece and I just knew I had to go with it.
I am a survivor of the On-Line Dating Wars. No, check that; I'm not a survivor, I am a champion! Listen to me here, because I absolutely know about this! And, you know I never lie so you'll get the real 411 on this bizarre topic. You also know you have a friend who could use this tutorial!
While I was on my own, after years went by and I wasn't dating, friends tried to help but most were paired up and didn't know anyone to introduce to me. Every now and again, someone would find a guy and the ensuing blind date left me thinking, "Holy crap I've been friends with her for a thousand years! Doesn't she know me at all?! What did she think the two of us would have in common?!!!" Other than both being alive, I mean. Well, check that, on a couple of those, I wasn't sure the guy had a pulse. It was almost enough to make me say, "No really, I like living alone. In fact I'm taking hermit lessons now! I hope to live that way for the rest of my life."
I knew they loved me and were well intentioned, but it got so I'd quake at the mere notion that they might know someone who knew someone who knows someone for me to consider. NO! So time passed and I still wasn't in a relationship- or even close.
My friends pondered, "Wow, Holly you work at a huge hospital! There must be lots of men, can't you find anyone there?" I would then explain that most of the staff happened to be female and I'm not gay. And that doctors were only available on soap operas but in real life, already involved or married. They'd say, "Oh, yeah, I see...gee have you thought about joining a church?!" How's that for a segue, huh?!
One day, when I'd stalked the bookstores yet again, sitting with my coffee and book, attempting to look fetching so that some guy reading Guns and Ammo, or Gear Head Magazine might look in my direction, I thought, "There has to be a better way!" Getting involved in groups or volunteering wasn't any better.
Going to bars was out; no way that ever turned out well. Going to friends' houses was good fun but Mr. Right wasn't ever there holding a drink and looking awe struck when I entered a room, "Surprise! I've been here waiting for you forever!!!" Nope. Never.
So, I got the idea to look into on-line dating. I lurked for quite awhile before I worked up my nerve and posted a profile with picture and began chatting. I learned that, generally, women are more serious about the quest to meet a partner. Women are looking for relationships, but most of the men on-line are looking for episodes. The guys are on the hunt to get laid or were bored with playing Guitar Hero, or their buddies were paired up and their new women afraid of his bad influence on their newly domesticated men, just wanted the free-wheeling bachelor gone.
Once I learned the basic rules of engagement, it became a pretty interesting exercise in Human watching. And while it had its weird moments, it was also a great deal of fun.
When my friends found out, they sounded the alarm, "Oh my god, Holly, you're not going to do that are you? What if he stills lives with his parents or spends time playing Dungeons & Dragons in their basement! How the hell can you trust any of those men? Most of them are probably lying or married, or who knows what?! " To which I calmly countered, "Okay, so you're suggesting that because the guy's on the computer, he's probably lying, but the guy I meet in the bar who really just wants to get laid, oh, that guy surely can't lie, right? Look, let's be real- if a person wants to lie, they'll lie. The venue is not what makes that more possible. "
When reasoned that way, they couldn't argue. So, I started in-
And, I met a lot of interesting, nice guys. Not all of whom was I romantically, physically, sexually, intellectually interested in. I only met two who still lived at home and that's all I'm saying about that. Likewise, I was not always the gal for some of the guys for whom I thought I was a good match.
Women aren't constrained by geography when it comes to finding the right guy. If we think a guy's a good prospect, we start Mapquesting to plan the fastest route. Heck, some women even chat with men in foreign countries figuring, at the very worst, they'll wrack up frequent flier miles!
But, men? If you don't live in the shed in their back yard, you probably live too far away to consider. You quickly learn that usually, if the guy is willing to come any distance to meet you, he's probably fished out the waters in his immediate area and now has to go to new fishing holes to get lucky. A rare few were enlightened men who knew quality and were not going to let geography get in the way. If distance wasn't a deal breaker for the guy, I knew he was more serious about the possibility of connecting. John was like that; he lived in Virginia and I was in Maryland. It was hard, but we worked around it.
The next thing you learn is that some sites attract more nuts and those who are just looking to get lucky. Match.com was like that for me. Although I hear it's changed now, when I tried it, I seemed to attract guys who started out okay only to have them send pictures of their penis. Is the plural of penis, peni??? After the second time it happened, I dropped the site and demanded my money back...which I got. Men? I know you think your Johnson is the best thing ever, but we females just don't find it that charming as an ice breaker. Got it?
Now, we know I'm not a prude. Don't even play one on television. I'm pretty open to most conversations and topics. I will warn you, however, that when it comes to on-line dating, you have to have limits, stick by them, and call the person on it when they cross your line. But, you have to remain open. With that said, you have to be aware that most guys want sex pretty early on in the dance. So don't get all offended. Don't get all worked up about not being respected. It's got nothing to do with that. It's just the way it is. You have the choice to pass or play along. If the guy is a player, and you don't want to play, tell him, "Thanks but no thanks," and wait for the next bus to come along.
Here's the thing: When I didn't want it, "No," was the answer and I stood my ground and was not talked into it. However, when I decided yes, I had a great time with the ones I chose. Sometimes I knew it wasn't going to be much more than a physical thing, but so long as it was my choice, it worked great. Don't make the mistake of thinking if you have sex, it will open the door to further discovery and interest on his part. That doesn't happen.
If you want to sleep with the guy- do it. But, be prepared that it might be nothing deeper than scratching an itch that you can't scratch for yourself. You're a big girl; deal with it. If you want it, go for it. Booty calls are not just for men, you know!
So here are the rules of engagement: If after chatting on line, you decide you're interested in each other, the next step is talking on the phone. You get a feel for the person by how they sound, what they're interested in, how they approach you and subjects. You should talk a few times on the phone before committing to meet.
Your first meeting- go someplace for coffee or lunch. Those imply a brief meeting. That way, if it's not good for you or him, your expectations aren't set too high and there's less pressure on both of you. If you click, stay and chat for as long as you like.
I never met a guy without the following in place: I always drove to meet him; no having them come to my house to pick me up until I knew them better. I always picked a place where I felt comfortable. I once met a guy at a great bar where I was friendly with the owner who is a burly Greek guy. Gus hung very close by at the bar. Eventually the guy, who I wasn't all that comfortable with, noticed that fact. It was good to be able to say, "Yeah, Gus is a friend of mine and he knows I'm having a meeting with you." Can I tell you? The guy began to behave himself a bit better. Score 1 for me! And, realizing he wasn't going to get lucky, excused himself shortly after. Gus poured me a fabu martini and I spent the remainder of my evening in pleasant conversation with him.
I always had my cell phone with me. You must have a wing-man; someone who knows where you are and can be called on for back up. I always told my sister-in-law Linda, where I was and the guy's name. About a half hour after the meeting started, my phone rang as planned and Linda would ask if things were all right. If they were, I'd say yes, and if they weren't, well, I had an excuse to leave. I only had to use that emergency hatch one time.
Don't be afraid to tell the guy that the call is your family checking on you. If the guy thought it was lame, that was my clue to say, "so long." For the most part, the guys were pretty impressed with my thinking and precautions.
If the man wasn't someone to whom I was attracted, kindly and honestly, I let him know at the end of the encounter. Yes, it's awkward, but it's still more respectful. I said I believed that their time was valuable and their quest was as important to them as mine was to me. They always accepted and thanked me; a few said how refreshing it was for someone to be honest. I behaved the same when it was my turn to be told that hard message. Being graceful in a difficult moment is always remembered. It's a good skill to master.
I'm still friends or friendly with several of the guys. I was lucky enough to work with one who is a professional photographer. Even though he and I were not a romance match, he is a great guy and we worked together very well on a couple of projects. Others, well you can never have too many friends. And, some were great lovers and that's all they were. I remember them all very fondly.
I tried several dating sites and you should, too. Even though you may run into some of the same faces, don't limit yourself to one. Take it seriously, but don't think it's the end of the world if you don't find Mr. Right right away. Guys have more fun with this than women do because they're all right with the process of the hunt. I'd say, stop desperately hoping every encounter could be the one because investing that sort of energy just wears you out after awhile.
Sometime you just need to take a break. Pull your profile down for a bit. Take time off. The second time I was on Yahoo personals, my subscription was just about up and I had decided not to renew it. As a farewell, I scanned the profiles a final time to see who was there that might not have shown before. I even looked at ones that the system didn't pick as a match for me.
And just before I signed out, I happened to come across this guy:
He only lived about 30 miles from me...he was really cute. When I read his profile and got a couple of laughs I thought, "Wow, how come this guy was never seen before and how come the system didn't pick him as a match?!" I looked further and without finding a reason to discount him as a potential, I sent the following, "Nice bike!" That's it, nothing more.
A short time later, I got an answer back, and it went from there. Turns out the guy already had my profile bookmarked and liked what I had to say. He was quite gentlemanly, educated, charming, witty, and you could tell, a bit shy. We talked several times on the phone and made a date to meet for lunch where we ended up talking for three hours.
And that's how Holly Dietor met Michael Frock. We wouldn't have met had we not been brave enough to take our destiny into our own hands and try something that made us a bit uncomfortable. Try stepping out of our small worlds and into the world of on-line dating.
Yeah, you'll meet a lot of odd ones, and nerdy ones, and ones who don't want even remotely what you're searching for. You'll have some sexual encounters that are great fun but don't lead to romance. And, I won't lie, you'll meet some where you think, "Eww, I don't need to do that again."
But all are Human Beings who are doing the exact same thing you are, which is hoping to find the one that makes the world a bit more complete. Hoping to find the one that makes you feel, when you hear them speak your name, as if you are hearing the most beautiful music.
And, if you are serious about it, and open to the possibility....
...you just might get your happily ever after, after all.
Namaste' Till Next Time,
Holly aka Mrs. Michael Frock

With Autumn comes the cold weather and it is the perfect time to prepare sausage balls, a comforting snack, very easy to make and loved by adults and children alike. With this recipe for sausage balls, you will be the star at family gatherings and even Halloween parties. Let's go!
How to make sausage balls:
Preheat the oven at 350ºF. Take the oven tray out.
Now, let’s make the baking dough. Mix the flour, the baking powder and the salt in a bowl. Add the Spanish EVOO and whisk everything well until you get a thick and sticky dough. If the mixture looks too dry, just add a bit more Spanish olive oil and mix again.
Chop the half onion in very tiny cubes.
In a big bowl, combine the ground pork sausage meat, the onion and the dough. Shred the Manchego cheese straight into the bowl –do not buy preshredded cheese, it is too dry-. Mix everything very well for a few minutes.
Scoop the mixture with a spoon to make balls the size of a walnut, approximately. Do not make them bigger, because if you do so the meat might not cook well enough.
Put baking paper sheets in the oven tray and place the sausage balls.
Bake in the oven at 350ºF for around 20-25 minutes, until the sausage balls look golden brown.
As simple as that! The sausage balls are ready. We hope you like this sausage balls recipe with a Spanish twist: using Manchego cheese and Spanish olive oil instead of shortening or butter, the sausage balls will be tastier, lighter and healthier. Sausage balls pair well with creamy sauces, so we recommend dipping them in a homemade mayonnaise made with olive oil from Spain. Enjoy!
