Starting today is a new series, on Strike Curious Poses, of featured songs that should have been much bigger hits than they were when they were first released or even a success at all. They will be songs from the past 3 decades but mainly songs from the past two years. The reason for it all is that even though there are plenty good solid pop hits in the charts at the moment, I still think the way a song is released in order to be a chart hit is still a complete mess. I think the policy of releasing a single on download and then weeks or even months later as a physical CD single has to be combined, that is both formats released on the same day, a Friday or Monday. This would allow a song to get it's proper chart placing earlier in it's release or else build on sales as more people download the song. I think it is only a matter of time before the physical format CD single is no longer being produced. I haven't bought a CD single in at least a year. A big part of the reason is that for an average of €5 you get the main song and just some average remix or album track tagged on. Where are the 4 or 5 club remixes that made all the Madonna / Kylie / most dance artists something that you had to buy on a Friday (here in Ireland) or Monday (in the UK)? What is also needed is someone to launch a proper download / pop magazine. Smash Hits! 2. I know I am always going on about the glory days of Smash Hits! but it was the perfect place to find out when all the new songs were out, sometimes a new song would have a gorgeous full page ad. The singles review section and song words throughout the magazine also immortalised every new song whether it was going to be a big hit or not. Much has been said about the possible return of Top Of The Pops but the two words that killed that are simple. Fearne Cotton. Well, not just Fearne, but an assortment of completely dreadful presenters in the years before the show was killed off. For me, the real pop show that was a huge asset to 90's pop was the ITV morning show, CD:UK. It is because of that show that Cat Deeley and of course Ant & Dec are still successful TV presenters. They were simply brilliant. They gave the impression that they were friendly with most of the pop acts they had on the show. When Simon Webbe walked over to Ant & Dec for a jungle task on "I'm a Celebrity..." the other night, all I could think of was Blue in studio some winter Saturday morning years ago. CD:UK was part of Saturday morning children's TV but by having the pop show as a separate show it was something students and twenty something's like me (at the time) adored as well. Simon Cowell has made a suggestion of buying the "Top Of The Pops" format and this caused great dismay to nearly everyone, well let him! When you look at the acts in the charts recently; Leona, the "Hero" song, Leon Jackson, Rhydian, Same Difference, all of these are Simon connected. As well as Take That, Girls Aloud, Britney and soon Beyonce, all appearing on this season's "X Factor". Going into a new decade, the year after next, there has to be a proper weekly UK new music show. That is what will save the music industry. The loss of proper pop magazines and TV shows I really believe has changed the way a song became a hit. Jennifer Lopez was a regular performer on both "Top of the Pops" and "CD:UK". In September 2007 her first single, "Do It Well" off her "Brave" album just went to number 11, (31 in the US). It is never good for a major artist to chart outside the top ten. Her second single "Hold it, Don't Drop It" would chart at 72. A disaster. But the truth is there were several singles by high profile artists not only having flop single releases but massive flops. Around that time big name record stores started to stock a smaller selection of CD singles. There were plans for Jennifer's album's title track "Brave" to be released on single but this never happened after the failure of the "Hold It, Don't Drop It". "Brave" was the type of pop that easily would have been a bigger hit just 2 or 3 years previously. But any song, good or bad needs airplay and exposure. The other song from the "Brave" album that should have been a single was "Mile In these Shoes". It was used as a promo for a the third series of "Desperate Housewives" but nothing much came of it. Jennifer Lopez has sung some of my favourite pop song of the past 10 years; "If you Had My Love", "Ain't It Funny", "Get Right" and most of all the full Intention remix of "Love Don't Cost A Thing". "Brave" and "Mile In These Shoes" should be songs to appear on a best of album but the words "greatest hits" would never be truthful. The thing with downloads is that most people don't know when a song is released as a download or may only purchase a song when browsing the I-Tunes site. It is possible for a song to chart if enough people buy the song from the album. If that is the case why isn't a song like "Better" by Boyzone, which is available on their current best of album, charting in the UK? That song is due for release, officially on December 15th. I'm sure I'm not the only person who has "updated" my UK I-Tunes page and then I'm suddenly forever connected to the I-Tunes American site where I can't purchase songs. I know that is probably reasonably easy to fix but I still haven't, mainly because I usually go into a download buying frenzy which can get expensive. I'm sure a lot of pop fans would read these words would agree with me and many sites have mentioned songs that they think should have been bigger hits, but I would love to read about more. It's also a way of highlighting songs to others who may not have heard them. Here's a well edited video, that was made by Camrebirth, for "Brave. And just the song, with v nice photo, for "Mile in These Shoes".

ABBOTT’S PPL SCHEME DEALT ANOTHER BLOW
July 22, 2014
Tony Abbott’s signature Paid Parental Leave Scheme has been dealt another blow today, this time by the Productivity Commission.
The Commission’s draft report into Childcare and Early Childhood Learning argues that the rolled-gold scheme is unlikely to provide additional benefits to the current scheme, despite the massive extra cost.
The draft report says:
“it is unclear that the proposed changes to the Paid Parental Leave scheme…would bring significant additional benefits to the broader community beyond those occurring under the existing scheme.”
[PRODUCTIVITY COMMISSION DRAFT REPORT – CHILDHOOD AND EARLY LEARNING – P41]
This rubbishes Tony Abbott’s claims that his hugely expensive scheme will improve female workforce participation.
It also confirms what Labor, the business community and almost all of Tony Abbott’s own colleagues have been saying for years: Tony Abbott’s signature scheme is a dud.
In 2010, Labor introduced Australia’s first ever Paid Parental Leave scheme, a scheme based on solid evidence and the recommendations of the Productivity Commission.
Labor’s scheme was designed to help women who didn’t have access to Paid Parental Leave to stay in the workforce when they had a baby.
This year’s Review of Labor’s Paid Parental Leave Scheme confirms that it is achieving just that.
Already, more than 340,000 women have benefitted from Labor's scheme. More than 40,000 dads and partners have benefitted from Labor’s Dad and Partner Pay.
Now Tony Abbott wants to spend $5.5 billion a year giving $50,000 to wealthy women to take six months off to have a baby.
Today, the Productivity Commission, which Tony Abbott once described as “our most respected policy making body” has confirmed this money would be better spent elsewhere.
Tony Abbott should heed the mountain of evidence and scrap his unfair and unaffordable scheme.

Hardly an architectural term as it so vague. The Tudor dynasty ruled from 1485 to 1603, but a Tudor-type window can be any window with wooden (often dark wooden) frames, normally leaded panes, that forms part of a timber-framed building.
Many Canterbury examples are heavily restored, or have been removed form other buildings.

Hugo Naudé: Badsberg, Slanghoek Mountains - SOLD
Badsberg, Slanghoek Mountains - 1906
Oil on canvas
46 x 61,5 cm
Signed and dated bottom left
Sold - 2014
Born Pieter Hugo Naudé, 23 July 1869, Aan-de-Doorns, Worcester
Died 5 April 1941 at the age of 71, Worcester
Born and raised in the Boland town of Worcester, Hugo Naudé became South Africa’s first full-time, professional artist. He received his formal art education at the Slade School of Fine Art in London (1889 - 1890) and the Kunst Akademie in Munich (1890 – 1894), and spent a year amongst the Barbizon painters in Fontainebleau near Paris.
Hugo Naudé’s sincerity as a man and his integrity as an artist, evident throughout his oeuvre, reflect his submission to the attraction of nature and the Southern African landscape. After his European training, Naudé had to adapt to the sunlit brilliance of the African landscape and, as plein airist, gradually loosen the bonds of his formal training. He pioneered a uniquely South African style, ‘Cape Impressionism’, in conjunction with the artists Pieter Wenning, Nita Spilhaus, Ruth Prowse and Strat Caldecott.
Applying the technical skills acquired from his formal art training, Naudé set out to portray the soul of the landscape by capturing its dramatic nature - using strong contrasts and vibrant colours to replicate the bright sunlight and arresting atmosphere. The excitement and enthusiasm generated by his direct, open-air approach, combined with his confident brushstrokes laden with individually mixed colours and the underlying sense of composition, always captured the brilliance of the scenes that inspired him.
Naudé loved going on painting expeditions to experience more of the drama that the Southern African landscape had to offer. Apart from exploring the Cape’s coast and mountains, he travelled to the Victoria Falls, the Natal Drakensberg, the rugged Transkei coast and the Knysna forests, and regularly painted the flowering spectacle of Namaqualand in spring.

Diet plays a crucial role in preventing and treating influenza. It is important to incorporate food that boosts your immune system in your diet to treat the infection. With a strong immune system, the body will be in a better position to fight influenza viruses more efficiently. Good food also helps to relax and soothe your body when infected with influenza. It makes it easy for you to manage the symptoms to a greater extent. For this reason, it is imperative to be keen on your diet to treat and prevent flu.
A good diet for influenza should contain fresh vegetables and fresh fruits. When suffering from flu, you will lose appetite. Fruits and veggies restore your appetite and are rich in vitamins that help to fight influenza viruses. If you have a sore throat and you find it difficult to swallow fruits, consider fresh fruit juice, vegetable juice and soup. A broth is also an excellent option if you have sore throat.
Take plenty of chicken soup. It helps to manage flu symptoms. Take the soup for 3 to 4 days. Include milk in your diet after taking soups, broths or juices. These should be taken during the initial stages of influenza. However, as the symptoms decrease, it is imperative to include solid food in your diet. Ensure it is balanced with proteins, carbohydrates, good fats, fresh vegetables and fruits. Spinach, cabbage, Brussels sprouts and kales should be included in your diet. Oranges/juice, ginger, garlic, lemon, peppers, carrots, broccoli, grapefruits and onions should be taken in handy when suffering from influenza. They alleviate symptoms of influenza and help to prevent future infection.
While diet is crucial in preventing and treating influenza, the choice of food you settle for also plays a crucial role in determining whether you get rid of the disease or not. Avoid sugars and sweetened food, refined flour and bakery products including cakes, avoid alcoholic beverages, preserved food, processed meat and red meat, coffee as well as aerated and caffeinated beverages.
Ensure you diet is well balanced and do not skip meals to treat influenza. Vegetables and fruits or fruit juices help to restore your appetite. Milk is whole and it is important to include it in your diet. A well balanced diet supplies the body with essential nutrients, boosts your immune system and prevents fatigue.

Too Hot to Cook?
August is No-Cook Month on FoodNetwork.com, and we worked hard to find 31 recipes that don't require any heat to prepare. (We didn't want it to turn into 31 days of tuna sandwiches.) But, with a lot of surfing around, we ended up with a nice selection of gazpachos, salads and sandwiches, mixed in with some great side dishes and no-cook desserts (check out Paula's Not Yo' Mama's Banana Pudding).
My favorite no-cook option is always a salad, and one of my favorite new shows on Food Network is Claire Robinson's 5 Ingredient Fix. Luckily, Claire actually did a No-Cook Dinner episode of her show recently, so I put together Claire's Antipasti Chopped Salad for a quick, light dinner. It was fantastic!
I'm probably in the minority, but I don't usually use jarred, marinated artichokes, which were the key to this flavorful, five-ingredient salad. First you chop up the artichokes and toss them into the salad, and then you use a little of the marinade (mostly oil and vinegar, according the ingredients list) for your salad dressing. I had my doubts about this. . . I thought Claire might have run out of ingredients and suggested the artichoke marinade as a dressing in desperation, but after tasting it I'm convinced it's pure genius. Having the marinade double as a dressing saves time and money, and it tastes amazing!
What's your favorite no-cook meal? Do you have a killer gazpacho recipe? I'd love to hear about it!

Once you are approved for Social Security disability your benefit payments will last until one of three things happen:
• You reach retirement age.
• Your medical condition improves and you are able to return to work.
• You start working and earn too much money.
For both Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) once you reach your retirement age your disability benefits automatically convert to retirement benefits, but the amount remains the same.
Your Medical Condition Improves.
If your medical situation improves to the extent that you are no longer disabled, your Social Security disability payments will end. Social Security periodically assesses SSDI and SSI beneficiaries with what is known as a Continuing Disability Review (CDR) to ascertain whether or not a recipient still qualifies for disability benefits. Typically a CDR will be scheduled every three to seven years. (But due the backlogs at the Social Security Administration (SSA), a CDR may be delayed beyond the scheduled review time.) In most cases benefits are continued after a CDR.
Earning Too Much Money.
SSA says that if you are engaged work (even part-time work) that results in “Substantial Gainful Activity” (SGA) you are no longer eligible for disability benefits. For 2016 if you earn more than $1,130 per month you will be considered engaged in “Substantial Gainful Activity” and your disability benefits will be withdrawn.
As is always the case with Social Security rules and regulations, there are exceptions and other, less common, reasons your benefits may be terminated.

There are many different tactics you can choose to deploy when you think you've lost your phone. Some include forcing it to beep loudly, activating GPS tracking, or remotely wiping the device completely. Most ignore the most easiest method: Adding your contact information to the lock screen.
It may not protect your data, but contrary to popular belief, most people are good. If they happen upon your phone, how will they be able to contact you if your phone completely locks itself off from the rest of the world? Lost Phone Screen app for Windows Phone, simply lets you stamp your favorite lock screen wallpaper with your basic contact information.
The app is pretty simple to use: Just find the wallpaper you want to use, open the Lost Phone Screen app and enter your basic contact information, set your wallpaper as your phone's lock screen, and the app stamps your info on the wallpaper.
Now I'm in no way suggesting that you only add your contact information to your lock screen, it's probably a good idea that you make sure your sensitive information is safe. The Lost Phone screen may just stop you from contracting Seal Team 6 to return your phone (those guys are good). Check out the Lost Phone Screen app in Windows Phone Marketplace and let us know what you think in the comments section.

Hello, I was on this site a long time ago but forgot my username, anyway it's been a long time for me. I just got this car and was wanting to replace the blown speakers that are currently in it. The car is a 1992 Lexus SC 400. The drivers side door speakers are 4". The rear deck speakers are 6 1/2". I listen to Hip Hop music, soul, classic, etc...really a wide range, but primarily hip hop.
My quick pickings found these, my budget is $200 as I need to put more money into a few car parts and restoration.
I was thinking JL Audio TR400 CXi 4" Speakers.(Sorry cant link I am new user)
And JL Audio C2-650X Evolution 6 1/2" Speakers.(Once again cant link)
I haven't done car audio in some time so my mind has faded, but I am BIG into music. Anyway the cars stock 10" subwoofer is no longer working, but I will probably throw a Kicker L5 in there in the future just not sure what to do yet, all I know is I need decent sounding music and I need it asap.

Recs and whatnot coming slowly, but surely.
This was a weird year and a weird story. It's been on the backburner of my mind forever, and I'm really pleased to get it out there. I bought the movie Frequency a few years ago, had the script, bits and pieces of this thing have been floating around forever and now, finally, it's done! So now...maybe I should finally do that Car Wash J2 I've kicked around for about as long, maybe longer, than this one. :D
BB! Almost completely done! High five, my friends!

Time for another Social Media Top 5. It has been a whirlwind week, but I am finding time to squeeze one in (or is it out?).
This week’s Top 5 is on the topic of customer service on Twitter: I have been hearing tell about a Comcast Rep committing acts of customer service via Twitter, and also Turbotax reps doing the same. The idea of using Twitter for instant customer service– a kind of public help chat window– is very intriguing, and has shown one way a more mass-popular Twitter can work for some businesses.
Now–what other customer service and professional communication possibilities could there be?
- Major League Baseball. Can a manager be ejected for arguing balls and strikes calls via Twitter?
- “How did you read my last Tweet when you can’t even see the strike zone?”
- Self-dentistry: no doubt, the old Saturday Night Live sketch can be brought to life. all we needed was the Internet, and Twitter.
- “Ok, it’s clear from your last Tweet that you missed the Novocaine step.”
- Bomb squads:
- “Did you remembered to turn vibrate off on your phone? Hello?”
- Culinary services like Epicurious.com for real-time recipe help:
- “That last tweet about yeast should have read ‘2 packages,’ not ’22 packages.’ Sorry, typo.”
- The President could use it to get quick answers from the public to gnawing questions:
- “Hey all, what do you think, should I call Putin ‘Pootster’ or ‘Bad Vlad?'”
- “Thinking about a troop surge. DM me if interested.”

Apple's HealthKit API enables health and fitness apps to share their data, both with the new iOS 8 Health application and with each other. HealthKit can serve as a hub for all the health and fitness apps on an iOS device. This allows consumers to have more oversight of their health and fitness.
The following is a list of sample source code snippets that matched your search term. Source code snippets are chunks of source code that were found out on the Web that you can cut and paste into your own source code. Whereas most of the sample source code we've curated for our directory is for consuming APIs, we occasionally find something interesting on the API provider side of things. If you know of some sample source code that would be of interest to the ProgrammableWeb community, we'd like to know about it. Be sure to check our guidelines for making contributions to ProgrammableWeb.
The Apple HealthKit Objective-C Sample Code by Apple demonstrates how to write and read data from HealthKit. With a user's birthday, developers can retrieve information based on queries and statistics.

Mealtimes have increasingly become a task for several reasons. The unavailability of a wide range of foodstuff/groceries, funds and time, attempt to offer some explanation for this. Coupled with the fact that I have a unique team of picky eaters. Thankfully, they’ve gotten better over the years but there is so much more room for improvement. I’m working on that.
Today, I literally agonized over what to make for lunch. I went through my ‘menu arsenal’ and still fell short. My friend made a couple of interesting suggestions and my husband pitched in. He thought this lock-down was an opportunity to introduce certain foods that our kids would not ordinarily eat. We had repeatedly had to explain why a stay-at-home, no-visiting, no-friends-over rule, was necessary in light of the Coronavirus pandemic. Despite allowing them more TV time than usual, they had played chess, monopoly, scrabble, snake & ladders, and many other novel inventions of their own yet they wanted something more. My husband believed that this would make them more open to trying new things; since they sought for some excitement cum adventure.
We came up with a not-too-long list of foods that our own parents gave us growing up. Heck! The last time I ate some of the foods on that list was when I was a teenager, twenty-something years ago!
We decided to make rice and beans porridge (with palm oil, crayfish and all the other intricate ingredients that make for a local delicacy).
I got right to work. Put my heart into it.
It took about two hours to prepare.
I served my kids and watched for their reactions.
Of course, they had a couple of questions about the food – the look, the blend, the combination, the smell. I answered them all.
Then they ate it all up. Everyone finished their serving. My youngest son even had a second helping. Then he came and stood right in front of me, with a somewhat stern look and said: “Mummy, why are your foods always so tasty?” I smirked and replied: “because I put a lot of love into it”. He smiled and went back to his food. I took that as a compliment.
Darn! It felt good! My face almost became stiff from my wide smile.
That was not the first time he was giving me a compliment but that one stood out for me.
My husband looked at me and said: “See?! And to think that you were afraid of giving them something new”. I smiled even more.

I know I said I’d post my TV segment details yesterday, but I have something else on my mind so that’s going to wait.
I recently spent a few days with our friends’ preteen daughters and they had lots of questions, everything from what I was like when I was their age to what I’d change about my appearance. They were so pure and yet so cautious of being judged. It got me thinking back. I once read something to the effect of, if you don’t have a weird friend, you are the weird friend. Continue reading

For the environmentally conscious, moving presents a dilemma. All the cardboard, packing materials and traveling swirl together in an emission-laden brew that usually winds up a few shades away from green.
What can you do to reduce your moving footprint on the world? Thankfully, there's a sustainable solution if you're open to thinking outside the box.
Plenty of companies across the U.S. now offer green moving boxes as an alternative to the traditional brown cardboard moving box. These green "boxes" are usually thick plastic bins that can be dropped off at your residence and returned to the moving company when you're done with them. Most movers let you use green boxes even if they don't offer them, but check with your mover to make sure.
Spencer Brown, the founder of rentagreenbox.com, compares the green box to the digital revolution. "I think green moving boxes are literally the digital version of moving technology. Cardboard boxes are the rotary phone and green boxes are like the iPad. Would you still use a rotary phone today?"
Benefits touted by green box companies include the sturdiness of plastic over cardboard, the ease of stacking these uniformly sized containers, and the easy-to-grip handles that will never rip. And without cardboard you don't have to worry about what to do with your boxes when your move is done. You don't have to break down and get rid of a pile of cardboard after just one use.
Brown says, "With cardboard boxes, you have to balance your packing and you can only stack boxes four or five feet high. Many people pack their boxes unevenly and it's easy for cardboard to get crushed in the course of a move. With green moving boxes, you can stack them to the roof of the moving truck with no worry about crushing the boxes below."
Similar to portable moving containers, you are basically renting these "boxes" and returning them after you move. As for the cost, Brown says renting green boxes costs about half as much as cardboard. "Decent cardboard boxes will run you about 3 or 4 bucks a piece and they hold 2.5 cubic feet. If you buy 20 boxes and all the associated packing material, your gas, and your time, you're looking at about $130. Green boxes hold 2.7 cubic feet and you can rent 25 boxes for $69."
For consumers who care about their impact on the environment and forward thinking movers, these moving boxes are a green (and great) way to avoid additional waste and make your move a little more Earth friendly.

The History of Celeborn and Galdriel
Playlist Navigation Bar
Oak and Willow: 11. The Eye of the Beholder
"Maybe inlays of jet in floor and walls, to soften the divide," she said to herself, wondering what to do to improve it, "And moonstone in the antechamber." Like black hair and white mingled on a pillow. Light and dark reaching out to touch. She hissed and turned away. "No. No, maybe not." Fury and nausea and a sense of being trapped came over her again. Why would her mind not obey her and think of other things? "Definitely not. Leave it as it is."
Ai! It was intolerable! How long must she wait until she could put the argument with Celeborn behind her? Why could she not stop thinking about it? Was she not master of her own mind? Controller of her own destiny - yes, even to defying the Powers! Then why...why must she still be harping to this tune?
Nargothrond was an uninspired, unwelcoming, unsatisfactory hole in the ground, and there seemed nothing she could do about it. Fuming, Nerwen turned her feet towards her room with the dreary knowledge that it too would provide no refuge.
Nor did it. The guest room had a velvet couch of sky blue and silver, cushions and drapes she had woven herself, stitched with clouds of river-pearls, a mirror in which she could see her scowl, and an untidy litter of paints in the corner, where she was working on a scene of seagulls crying out at the first dawn. She jammed the torch in its bracket, kindled the lanterns - they seemed deliberately fiddly to light; intent on thwarting her - and went over to the painting. Something simple, to begin with. Something to soothe her. Mixing golds, she tried to paint the line of the coast as Fingolfin's heralds set foot there, stepping into the new day.
It would not go right. The colour was wrong and the shape of the line was foul. Foul! With main effort she stopped herself from hurling the brush across the room, rinsed it, put it down carefully. Then carefully she sat on the edge of the bed, knotted her hands together until the fingers ached and glared at the floor.
What was the matter with her? She had come to Nargothrond to be away from Doriath's intrigue, to do useful, creative, constructive work. To help Finrod. To make a difference. And her mind would not function, her soul would neither sing nor settle, and no matter where she looked she could not see a single thing to praise. All the world had become vile in her sight.
Varda Starkindler! What is the matter with me?
She had lost friends before. Even in Aman she had lost friends to the lure of Feanor's honeyed words. But always she had been able to throw herself into the creation of new things, and the ache would diminish as her interest was caught by the needs of art. Never before had the loss threatened to undo her whole world, so that she could not think for it.
Perhaps because I was unjust? 'Long and bitter experience I have of those who load me with praise, and see in truth only their own heads crowned with the diadem of Finwë's house,' she had said to him. Yet when had he ever flattered or fawned? What compliments he gave were rare and always no more than the truth. Nor did he desire a crown - she had berated him for it often enough.
I am not settled within myself because I have affronted my own honour with this accusation. she thought, and nodded, sighing with relief. Yes, that must be the reason. It felt good to have come to a conclusion - to have made a step towards putting this behind her and recovering.
Rising, she picked up the stoppered jar of wine which lay on the sideboard, and poured herself a drink. The chalice was shaped of two trees, their intertwined trunks forming the stem, their raised branches and spread leaves of mingled silver and gold.
"Ai!" at the sight of it she slammed the cup back on the board and covered her eyes with a spread hand, "All Ea mocks me!" The brief moment when she thought she had solved this puzzle made all worse now as confusion and heartache surged back in a glamhoth of yammering voices. What is happening to me?
Abruptly, she felt the need of council as a ravenous man needs food. Finrod...she could go to him and.... But no. This was not the sort of dilemma a brother should be asked to face. If only she had a sister! She thought of Luthien. But she knew what Luthien would say and did not want to hear it. Aredhel then? No. The white lady of the Noldor would laugh for scorn at the thought that Galadriel had a Dark Elf admirer.
Nerwen! she told herself angrily, hearing the slip in her own thoughts, I am not Galadriel. I am Nerwen.
At the thought a well of darkness opened in her fea and filled her chest with emptiness. She wanted to weep, but could not - she was too cold for that. Tears would freeze on her cheeks, as they had done when she walked to Middle Earth across the ice.
Why does it matter so much? she thought, desperately, It is no more than a name. But she knew she deceived herself. 'Galadriel' was healing and hope, the knowledge that someone, even now, could perceive in her both goodness and glory. Reprieve, redemption, a future.
A gift of love.
"No!" She paced from one end of the room to the other - it was not far enough. It was a trap, just as her thoughts were a trap, just as the whole of Endor was a trap into which she had thrust herself recklessly and which now constrained her. Was there no way to be free?
Taking the torch up again she left the room and wandered alone through building sites and rough hewn caves where stalactites hung like deformed fingers from the ceiling and bats flitted over her, squeaking piteously. At last, when she could not outrun her thoughts, she came to the great stone doors which opened onto the river valley, and looking out she saw a grey boat draw near, and Finrod step from it onto the wharf.
She did not run to him. She merely stood and watched as he spoke to the servants and sent them on before him. But she thought that perhaps he was swifter in his dealings with them because of her presence, and though he waved to her as he spoke to the boatmen, his smile seemed a sickly thing. When finally he slung his travel bag over his shoulder and walked up to her she found it easier to be unconcerned because of his evident worry.
"Are you well, my sister?" he said, taking her arm.
He was the wisest of their family, but she, she was the strongest. She had no intention of letting such a foolishness as this besmirch her reputation. "I am," she said, "We had little idea of the time of your coming, but your chamber is prepared. If you will wash, I will see that the board is set for you."
"Peace." Pulling her arm from his she drew away from him, and though she had been eager for his arrival, now she wished he would leave her alone. Finrod was not...she did not wish to discuss this with any of her brothers.
"As you wish," he said, coolly, and bowing went away to wash.
The meal was silent, and - perhaps because the cooks as yet had no proper kitchen - tasted of ash. She took a forkful of flower salad; rose petals and marigolds like dawn on a plate, and put it down again listlessly. "The carving of the second entranceway goes well," she said with determined cheerfulness, "And the cladding of the main bath is complete. They mean to run water into it later today."
Finrod put his knife down with a clatter. "Are you pretending that nothing has happened?" he said, his expression gone from uncomfortable to disapproving, "Regardless of your personal feelings we must deal with this. He is Prince of Doriath and we are Doriath's allies. For the sake of politics alone we cannot ignore it."
She did not want to speak of it! "You mean to marry me off to keep the peace?" she said quellingly.
"Don't be a fool!"
Brittle silence fell. Finrod studied his food, and Nerwen looked about herself so that she need not look at him. This private dining room was small and away from the apartments of state. The walls were of green agate, curiously swirled with blue. The plates were copper and the cutlery bronze. Behind Finrod's seat a door stood open on the ancient darkness of the deep places of the world. His hair gleamed gold as Laurelin against that shadow, but there was in the room no echo of the paler, gentler light of Telperion. No silver.
Desolation blossomed in her heart. "How is he?" she asked at last.
"Like a man in mortal pain," said Finrod, "With moments of lucidity that lapse into empty eyed staring." He lowered his voice to say gently, "This is no light thing for him, no dalliance. He is genuine in his love for you."
She breathed in sharply and folded her hands about her cup, to be holding on to something. Of course, she had not truly doubted Celeborn's love. If he had said he loved her then he did - he was never less than brutally honest. In fact, she liked that in him - the way that if you asked his opinion you would get it, whether it was pleasant to hear or not. Only shock at finding a valuable and delightful friendship snatched out of her grasp; twisted into something unknown and dangerous, had made her accuse him otherwise.
I was unjust, she thought, I arrived in Doriath wanting companionship, and he gave it to me. What is there to resent in that? The news of his suffering made her feel both guilty and hurt herself. But if he loves me and I cannot return it, where is the blame? It is only an unkindness of fate. And he is strong. He will recover.
That thought gave rise to a stab of sourceless anxiety which she ignored, meaningless and irrational as it was.
If I take back the vile things I said, she thought, with a sensation like the sun rising We will be no worse off than we were before Luthien spoke. I need not lose him... She breathed out; a long sigh of relief, and lowered her head to rest on her linked fists, tension passing from her back, leaving her limp. This time she truly did understand. It was not mere justice she desired, but for things to go back to how they had been. And there was no reason why they could not. We could pretend that neither of us knew. We could be content again.
How complex the heart was and how strange its ways. She laughed, a little shakily, I missed my friend. To think that all this anguish could be caused by something so plain, That was all. There is nothing wrong with me, I just missed my friend.
"I will go back tomorrow and apologize," she raised her head and smiled at Finrod, who frowned, slow to catch her reassurance. Council she had thirsted for, and never thought of the obvious. She did not want to speak to Luthien or Aredhel or Melian. The one whose advice she desired was Celeborn himself. He was her friend, and she trusted his opinion. She would talk to him and between them they would work something out. "And all will be as it once was, both politically and personally. So eat, and do not look so fraught. All will be well."
Nerwen paused at the door, with her hand on its pale oak planks, waiting for the servant who had brought her here to go away. She was tired. Not of body, though she had spent the greater part of the day scrambling between boat and raft and barge, but tired of spirit. All this past week voices had kept her awake in the night, niggling at her, whispering that she had forgotten something, overlooked something, was not seeing something vital. Yet when she tried to quieten and hear them they would fade and she would find herself staring at the wall and the long ugly line of her painted seashore, frustrated and dreary.
She supposed she was merely dreading this meeting. Celeborn was of a quick temper - that burnt up like straw and as soon went out - but what if he also held grudges? What if he did not forgive her?
Worse...Or was it worse? She detested being so confused! What if he saw her contrition as being a sign of hope? She would have to be very clear, very forthright, and leave him in no doubt that while she did not wish to ever be parted from him, she did not...could not...see him as a lover.
Well. She was brave, one of the bravest of a family which had come to Endor to challenge the mightiest of the Valar - Manwë's equal - face to face. She would not be daunted by so stupid a thing as this. Pushing the door open, she went through into candle light and quiet, and balked, brought up short by what she saw.
The study was painted with firelight and the air as golden as birch-sap wine. Celeborn lay asleep on a divan before the fire, a lute dangling from one tuning peg from his outstretched hand, his open eyes full of reflected flames. He must be as weary as I, she thought, surprised by a great swell of affection, And for the same reason. For all Finrod's delicate phrasing she had not been so touched by her brother's words as she was by this proof that she was as necessary to him as he was to her.
Involuntarily she took a step forward, drawn, her mood lightened merely by looking on him. He was elegant even in disorder, long limbs sprawled. His hair, like water in starlight, trailed across cheek and chest, glimmering as he breathed. Tendrils pooled in the hollow of his throat, leading her eye to the fair skin shadowed by the open neck of his tunic.
What am I *doing*?!
She recoiled, her breath laboured as if from running. Her shoulder struck the door and it closed with a click. At the small noise Celeborn was instantly awake, on his feet, unsheathed knife in his hand. She reached for her sword, but her hand had barely closed on the empty air above her hip before he was backing away, wide eyed.
For a long time they stared at one another, and she did not know who was the more appalled.
"Forgive me," he said, with a look of helpless confusion, "I had troubled dreams. I knew not..." He sheathed the knife and turned half away from her, looking at the floor.
"You have fine reactions for an elf of sheltered Doriath," the words were out before she knew what she was going to say. But for the fact that they were in her voice she would not have known who spoke them - the world was reshaping itself under her hands fast as poured metal and she could not control it. She could only wait to see what shape it bore, when it had cooled.
Celeborn's eyes narrowed and his chin went up, insulted. "You speak to me of being sheltered? You who grew to womanhood in Aman where even the roses have not thorns? Is it your purpose to patronize? Are you come to abuse me again in some new way you did not think of last time?"
He turned his back on her and folded his arms, "No, I think I have heard enough from you." The posture only emphasized the long, strong line of his back, cleanly muscled, eloquent of unbearable pain. And she wondered why she had not noticed before how beautiful her friend was; why she had to notice it now.
"I came... to apologize," she managed, "To say..."
He tensed like a bow at full draw, and she found herself wanting to lay a hand on his shoulder, perhaps to give comfort, perhaps only so that she might touch him.
"Ai Elentari!" Shocked at herself a second time, lost in a world gone altogether strange, she turned, flung open the door, and fled.

First of all GitHub is awesome, that’s what we all know so let’s get straight to the point. One of my favorite features is that link thing next to each heading, few days ago I thought it would be nice for my blog too. I’ve found many related plugins but none of them succeed to met my requirements. I wanted a small, efficient and smart plugin which will not update my database with tons of unused classes and HTML tags so I’ve made it on my own and now it’s available for anybody (for free).

Last week I finished a project with thousand images (few hundreds megabytes which is basically unimportant) when I suddenly realized that almost each image file is way larger than it is necessary. For example why I should use a 150×150 image as a 50×50 sideshow thumbnail? Plus there was one more resolution for featured images. So I decided to add those two dimensions to optimize page load speed – this was the easy part. Assuming you’ve already faced with this story you might know that adding new image resolution will not generate new images automatically.

Blogger, Rosie Connolly, has opened up about life as mother.
The 28-year-old recently spoke about online trolls giving her parenting ‘advice’ on social media.
“I remember, years ago when Harry was small, I had cartoons on the phone for him and people went bananas, people who disagreed with kids being on an iPad or phone and then ones who agreed,” she told The Irish Mirror.
“There are so many opinions out there and you can go online and find so many different ones… Sometimes I think that’s too many opinions and the best thing to do is just go with your gut and what’s right for your child.”
After having gone through the experience of raising a child while in the public eye, Rosie has showed her compassion for others who are going through the same thing.
“With people like Vogue (Williams), it is hard because you’re in the public eye but she’s still a mother and someone who is pregnant, going through the same trouble as everyone else,” the mum-of-one.
“I feel for her if she’s going through that and she’s having a lot of judgment – it’s hard enough being a mum.”
Rosie recently revealed that she has been thinking about expanding her family since January and hopes to have another child soon.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - A federal program that will share information on guns used in crimes has started a test project in Virginia.
The program gives law enforcement agencies instant access to a database that can help them link suspects to guns in a criminal investigation. It also could help detect potential gun traffickers and straw purchasers, and identify patterns involving sources and types of weapons used in crimes.
The Richmond Times-Dispatch (http://bit.ly/17ZJR1H) reports 25 law enforcement agencies in Virginia have signed agreements to share gun crime data since the program was launched in July.
The program is an expansion of the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives' Electronic Tracing System based in Martinsburg, W.Va.
ATF Special Agent April Carroll says authorities plan to expand the program to other states.

A beautiful new ‘black barn’ build in New Plymouth belonging to Jane & Marc Murray proves that building on a budget can still result in a stunning functional family home.
The Murray’s impressive kitchen is made from plywood joinery with a laminate bench top and features polished concrete floors. The barn door was made by the builder and painted with Resene ‘Lichen’ a soft olive green colour.
Resene colour ‘alabaster’ is used throughout the house. (This colour is a near white with a light blackened edge).
Jane’s love of styling and interior design is evident throughout their home. Jane is a lover of bargain hunting and has sourced a lot of objects for the home on sale or her handy husband has made some of the pieces.
Square white tiles around the bath create a graphic grid with contrasting black grout.
Using black aluminium means the home is low maintenance which saves a lot of money in the long term.

The Reference 30 was a highly revered AV processor/preamp before the arrival of HDMI. To a certain extent, the Ref 30 is still “relevant” in today’s home theater system where you can route the HDMI output directly to your TV and the digital output from your player to the Ref 30. That way, you still pass through HD videos on to your screen but still get to get enjoy the Ref 30’s prowess in audio processing. Setting up the Ref 30 does take some serious concentration and focus but once it is done, it is time to enjoy. And that was the key point of the Ref 30 – its high quality sound. Even as a stereo preamp, it is well worth the $395 outlay and just treat the AV processing portion as a “free” bonus. See our other listing for the matching multi-channel power amp, Reference 7260 MKII, that was used together with it previously. Cosmetically, the unit looks really good. Just minor scuff marks here and there but nothing major. Very important manual and remote included. Unit will be securely packed for safe shipping.

Ensure that the systems are explosion-proof
Raw materials and intermediate products from crude oil usually form highly explosive mixtures with air. Process reliability and plant availability therefore play an important role in the automation of process valves in the petrochemical industry.
Automation solutions from Festo:
- Diagnostics module: early detection of deviation from the standard values, e.g. by analysing switching cycles and changes in temperature, pressure, current or voltage
- Condition monitoring of Festo components and systems: can also be expanded to affiliated third-party products
- Preventive maintenance, replacement of unreliable parts: avoid downtimes and increase system availability

P&S Journal: Fall 1995, Vol.15, No.3
Alumni News and Notes
The 21st Century Fund: New Resources for a New Era in Medical Science
Dean Herbert Pardes has directed the establishment of the 21st Century Fund to ensure support for innovative new research, cutting-edge therapeutic, diagnostic, and information technology, interdisciplinary programs, the library, student aid, and curriculum initiatives. These and other essential efforts represent the academic infrastructure of the institution yet often fall between the cracks of established funding sources.
The funding needs of a great medical school like P&S are varied. When the dean recruited Dr. David Bickers, a dynamic new chairman to reinvigorate the Department of Dermatology, he promised to provide the facilities to pursue his research in photodynamic cancer therapy and other areas and to build up a solid research-based academic program. One of the department's unfortunate deficiencies in recent years had been the lack of modern laboratory space. Dean Pardes decided to revamp some 7,000 square feet of laboratory facilities on the 15th floor of the old Vanderbilt Clinic. The
future research potential, according to Dr. Bickers, transcends traditional departmental boundaries. "The skin is a neurobiological outpost," he insists. "It is the model tissue to study some very basic biological responses, particularly in the complex field of cancer research."
In the December 1994 issue of Science, Dr. Yuan Chang, assistant professor of pathology, and Dr. Patrick Moore, assistant professor of public health, reported their finding of DNA sequences in Kaposi's sarcoma similar to the DNA sequences of gamma herpesviruses. The new finding opens pathways for improvements in diagnosis and treatment of KS and is another example of a virus implicated in cancer causation. Drs. Chang and Moore used the latest tools in molecular biology-representational difference analysis and polymerase chain reaction-to isolate the extraneous viral DNA sequences.
This is just one example of the many advances occurring day-to-day at P&S. To maintain the level of inquiry and discovery that has made American medicine the envy of the world, we must continue to be vigilant in looking beyond the horizon of current knowledge. To do so, the best medical schools-with P&S leading the way-must remain fiscally strong.
Fortunately, the conclusion of this medical epic has not been written. You can make a difference in the outcome and help pioneer the future of medicine by supporting the P&S 21st Century Fund, a new resource for a new era of discovery. Information about participating in the 21st Century Fund may be requested from Jill Barkan in Health Sciences Development at (212) 781-2100.

Is the term "a whistling woman and a crowing hen" in the Bible, and if it is scriptural where is it?
I remember my mom used to tell me that. It is folk law. That is a phrase the old folks use to say. I whistled all the time, and I did pretty good.
A whistling woman and a crowing hen never comes to no good end.

'So tonight, I am proposing that starting this year, we freeze annual domestic spending for the next five years. This would reduce the deficit by more than $400 billion over the next decade, and will bring discretionary spending to the lowest share of our economy since Dwight Eisenhower was president.'…This leads to the 8 cents on the dollar scenario, because domestic spending is crowded out by interest on the national debt and entitlements.
Republicans propose returning to 2008 then 2006 spending levels for a total savings of 2.5 trillion over the next 10 years.
'This means further reducing health care costs, including programs like Medicare and Medicaid, which are the single biggest contributor to our long-term deficit. Health insurance reform will slow these rising costs, which is part of why nonpartisan economists have said that repealing the health care law would add a quarter of a trillion dollars to our deficit.'…not because of slowing of rising costs, but because $770 billion in tax increases over 10 years. http://jewishworldreview.com/cols/krauthammer012111.php3
''Still, I'm willing to look at other ideas to bring down costs, including one that Republicans suggested last year: medical malpractice reform to rein in frivolous lawsuits.'…
This should have been in Obama's original health reform proposal, and may have been the best way to reduce rising medical costs.
'And let's make sure what we're cutting is really excess weight. Cutting the deficit by gutting our investments in innovation and education is like lightening an overloaded airplane by removing its engine. It may feel like you're flying high at first, but it won't take long before you'll feel the impact.'…Is he talking about what will happen if we get rid of Coal and Oil?...or attacking Insurance and Pharmacutical companies? Or just tax policies? So many ways to understand this analogy.

I am impressed that he tries to acknowledge both sides, but he misrepresents the positions of both the right and the left, making both appear farther right than they really are. Few Republicans want to abandon social programs, but they do want to prevent them from getting larger.
Likewise, the people on the left aren't just capitalists who also want public charity. (That would be a good description of most Republicans.) Many on the left despise capitalism and want the government to control the economy and specific industries. The leftist policies of the current government have tried to take over healthcare, the auto industry and the financial sector.
He fails to mention Keynesian Economics, which is followed religiously by the everybody on the left and less religiously by a few on the right. This is a belief that the government should meddle in the economy by trying to boost demand during weak economic times. The problem is that it has a bad track record and it is the perpetual excuse for increasing government spending and control.
There is an optimal level of government that prevents us from harming each other but otherwise leaves us free to conduct our own affairs. We are way past that point. The level of government we have now is leading us to bankruptcy. The country is driving off of a cliff built out of debt. The Tea party movement is not about a desire to abandon welfare, but a desire to reign in excessive spending.
Finally, everybody on the left ignores the lessons of history - how experiments in socialism have repeatedly collapsed the economies of the countries who tried them. It ignores the fact that per capita GDP is inversely proportional to tax rates worldwide and throughout history.
Consider the following thought experiment: If you taxed a certain segment of the population at 100% of their income, how much would that segment of the population produce? They would produce nothing at all. As you lowered that tax rate, they would produce more, and if you kept lowering it, you would reach some level at which production is maximized. Some have suggested that the government should find a taxrate at which government revenue is maximized (as opposed to maximum productivity), but as tempting as this sounds, I want to remind you that it is not the role of the federal government to see how much money they can milk out of us. This kind of thinking is counter to freedom.
Those on left want to increase taxes so that they can increase spending, but this is poison for our economy, as it runs counter to productivity and freedom

'About 2 1/2 hours before the attack, authorities said Wednesday, an Arizona state wildlife officer stopped Loughner for running a red light but had no reason to search the vehicle and allowed the young man to leave with a warning.'
'In the hours before Jared Lee Loughner allegedly tried to assassinate Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) and killed six others, his father chased him into the desert as he carried a mysterious black bag in his hand, the Associated Press reported.'
It's too bad his father did not call the police, saying he did not know what his son had or planned.
Then the red light pull-over may have had probable cause.
Even so it was a legally possesed gun and he hadn't committed a crime yet.
'Dmitri Medvedev in an interview with Izvestia from May 6, 2010: "If we speak honestly, the regime that was built in the Soviet Union cannot be called anything other than totalitarian."'
'Georgi Dimitrov, last head of the Communist International, is quoted to the effect that as early as January 1945 Stalin declared at a reception in his dacha outside Moscow that although Russia was allied with one capitalist faction (the United States and Great Britain) against another (the Nazis), it would soon fight its present allies too. Stalin believed that as a result of a postwar capitalist economic crisis, and conflicts between the Western allies, America would be compelled to withdraw its forces from Europe, which would enable the USSR not just to dominate Eastern Europe but to extend its influence to all of Germany as well as France and Italy. But as the Russian study notes with evident disbelief and perhaps even amusement, Western politicians continued to put their trust in the peaceful intentions of "Uncle Joe" and "simply did not want to believe in Soviet expansionism" until a more sober approach began to prevail in the West (which only happened after Churchill's "Iron Curtain" speech, which this volume reprints in full). Further stages in the unleashing of the Cold War were the Berlin Blockade provoked by Stalin, the Soviet takeover of Prague in 1948, and the rapid Sovietization of Eastern Europe.
The study further notes that Soviet military doctrine in the early 1950s was—according to Marshal Sergei Akhromeev, chief of the Soviet General Staff—based on a powerful belief that Soviet tank divisions that would occupy Western Europe as far as the Atlantic. As for the outbreak of the Korean War, the initiative came from Kim Il Sung, but Stalin gave him the green light and provided enormous quantities of military equipment and "fully consciously [soznatelno] attempted to draw America [into] a new conflict which could eventually lead to a third world war." In brief, according to this volume, Stalin was a monster and eventually a disaster for Russia even more than for the rest of the world.'
'This was decades ago, however, and in the twenty-first century it would seem that common interests should outweigh the tensions and disputes between the two countries. But the improvement in relations has been modest. Although President Obama has gone out of his way to "reset" U.S.-Russian relations and Putinism is not high on the list of threats that worry Americans, a majority of Russians, according to all public opinion polls, see the United States not just as the main culprit in the fall of the Soviet Union but as Russia's greatest enemy now and in the foreseeable future. This view is reinforced day in, day out in the Russian media—and not just by a few retired generals, neo-Stalinists, neo-Eurasians, or spokesmen of extremist fringe groups.'

Quiet, casual day today. Wore my fav combo of shorts & tights. Still feels weird when I wear things that I’ve recently worn – as in the last month! I wore a gingham shirt in honour of this lovely Spring time. I’m also wearing what I refer to as my “Minnie Mouse Shoes” – haven’t worn them in years, but I love them. They’re fun & comfy.
I’ve actually schedule a hair appointment for next week! It’s only been a year & a half since I had a haircut. Sigh. Why do I wait so long?

There are your friends, there are your good friends, and then there are your people. How do you know if someone is your person? Well, as Cosmo one wrote to a girl who wanted to know if she had had an orgasm yet, “you’d know.”
But, for those of you who are still confused, I’ve compiled a handy list. Check all that apply; one point per check.
1. You let them read (okay, maybe even begged them to read) that 3000-word letter you wrote to that person you thought you were in love with. That letter that you’d never, ever send. The letter you’re already too embarrassed to think about. Yup, that one.
2. You woke up at 8 AM (or some equally ungodly hour) to Skype them when they were in New Zealand, because you knew that you’d likely drive that beaten-up Saab that is your life…

Cups Whole Milk, Divided
Cups Uncooked Elbow Macaroni
Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
Cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
Cup Seasoned Panko Bread Crumbs
1.Combine 2 cups of milk, macaroni, salt, and pepper in large skillet over medium-high heat.Bring to a boil, stirring constantly to prevent sticking, then turn the heat down to medium-low heat and cook, stirring, until milk has reduced to a thick sauce. Add the remaining 1 cup of milk and cook until pasta is al dente and milk has reduced by about half. Add the cheddar and mozzarella, stirring until cheese is melted and pasta is evenly coated. 2. Sprinkle the bread crumbs evenly across the top of the mac & cheese, using your hand to press them down into the crevices. Spray the bread crumbs with cooking spray in a circular motion for about 4 seconds to coat them evenly. 3. Broil on high until bread crumbs are golden brown and toasty, about 5 minutes, watching carefully to make sure the bread crumbs don't burn. Serve!

Washington, DC - On Sunday, December 2nd, NHS Members Ted and Demetra Argeroplos sponsored a meet and greet luncheon at the il Canale restaurant in Georgetown. NHS members, along with Heritage Greece alumni and Pan-Hellenic scholars were present. The purpose of the luncheon was to connect these students with prospective mentors who will be able to provide guidance and advice that will help them in the future. The National Hellenic Society is excited that the first of many events designed for fostering the Mentor/Mentee relationship between our members and our program participants was a success. We look forward to many more events like this as we launch this new phase of our Heritage Greece and Heritage America programs. Thank you Demetra and Ted Argeroplos for sponsoring this event to kick off this exciting new chapter!
And they’re off! Every year, the National Hellenic Society sponsors Greek American college students on a two-week educational and cultural immersion experience at the American College of Greece to discover their heritage and culture through the Heritage Greece Program. This year, we are proud to sponsor 65 participants, joined by 13 peer students from ACG.
Meeting in Washington, DC before heading to Greece tonight, the group visited the Harvard Center for Hellenic Studies, where they heard from several classicist and fellows, and the Greek Embassy where His Excellency Ambassador Lalacos and his diplomatic corps welcomed the participants and provided an overview of Greece’s challenges. They then visited Capitol Hill, where they met with Congressman John Sarbanes, Senator Chris Van Hollen, and the staffs of Congressman Gus Bilirakis, Congressman Charlie Crist, and Congresswoman Dina Titus! This is just the beginning of a life-long commitment to these Greek American ambassadors of Hellenic heritage!
Safe travels and καλό ταξίδι παιδιά!
Following the White House salute in honor of Greek Independence Day, the NHS hosted their second annual after-party reception for members, guests, and VIPs to honor Greece’s 186 years of freedom from the Ottoman Empire.

It was a night to remember. Ζήτω Ελλάδα – long live Greece!

Following the White House salute in honor of Greek Independence Day, the NHS coordinated a reception for members and guests to honor 185 years of freedom from the Ottoman Empire. His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios was in attendance and offered a few words. Several Greek American organizations, Greek and Cypriot Embassy representatives, and politicians were in attendance.
The National Hellenic Society hosted a luncheon at the International Spy Museum in Washington, DC. It was moderated by Mike Manatos, NHS Board member and President of Manatos & Manatos, and featured Ambassador and first Director of National Intelligence, the Honorable John Negroponte, and Ambassador and Executive Director of the US-Qatar Business Council, the Honoable Patrick Theros. The two spoke on present U.S. foreign policy from their vantage points, seasoned by life-long careers as U.S. diplomats. They discussed the challenges, risk, and opportunities facing the West within the context of America’s political transition. Especially given recent news developments, this discussion was very compelling and lively.
WASHINGTON - The NHS and Manatos & Manatos, a leading government relations and advocacy firm, collaborated to develop the NHS Heritage America Program -- an experiential odyssey connecting Greek-American college students to their Hellenic roots, heritage and culture within the context and resources Washington, DC has to offer. This past weekend, selected candidates met a who's-who of Greek-American decision makers, business leaders and other important contacts who will serve as future mentors and career guides for Heritage America alumni.
The Greek Guide to Greatness is a digital series co-produced by the NHS and National Geographic Television. The digital production will feature a series of vignettes highlighting the contributions of the ancient Greek world to contemporary society— many of which we take for granted yet remain part of daily life. The digital series is funded by the NHS and through a generous grant from the George and Judy Marcus Foundation.

“Have you listened to this podcast before?”
I think it’s fair to say that most of us have a favorite podcast, whether it be an episode or a series that you listen to every week. Podcasts can be a great source of entertainment, education, and all things murder mystery. What’s more, podcasts are a great way for mental health service providers to get their name out there! Podcasting can be a great way to grow your practice, as it’s another way to share your content. In addition, having podcast episodes give you another opportunity to show up in web searches. What’s more, podcasts can be great for accessibility since they can accommodate other learning styles and preferences. So, with this in mind, creating a podcast for your practice could be a great idea for therapists!
Why Would a Therapist Have a Podcast?
Fun fact: in 2019, Google made it public that podcasts that they had started including podcasts in search results. This means that podcasts have the same potential to show up in searches the way that websites, videos, and blog posts do. Pretty cool, huh?
When thinking about podcasting to help grow your practice, you might not know where to start.
There are a lot different paths to take. But, for our purposes, we’re going to focus on how to optimize SEO for podcasts. In addition to all of the wonderful knowledge you’ll get from this blog, Practice of the Practice offers great resources to start and grow a podcast. Creating a podcast can help grow your practice if you’re choosing the right topic and targeting the right audience. With the right approach, you can build podcast SEO and reach a bigger audience.
Yep, podcast SEO a thing. Here’s what you need to know.
First things first: what is podcast SEO?
Podcast SEO is, quite literally, “podcast search engine optimization.” When building podcast SEO, we’re focusing on getting your podcast to the first page of Google. Much like your website and blogs, you want your podcasts to show up to your ideal clients.
Second thing’s second: why should I worry about it?
If you’re producing podcasts in the hopes of attracting more clients and becoming more well-known, there’s really only one way to do that: having good SEO. If you don’t have good SEO, you don’t show up. Which, in the days of everything being online, this is imperative to the success of your practice. As a service provider in private practice, your time is limited. So, if you’re going to dedicate some time and energy to creating a podcast to attract a new audience, don’t you want the best ROI?
We know all of the things about the “why” behind podcast SEO, now we’ll switch gears to the “how” piece of the puzzle. Below are a few tips on building your podcast SEO.
Steps to building your podcast SEO
We’ll go into more detail below, but the basic steps for building podcast SEO include:
- Claim your podcast on Google Podcast Manager.
- Make a website for your podcast.
- Use Keywords in Your Podcast Title
- Pick the name of your podcast very carefully.
- Help Google build trust with your podcast.
- Optimize your SEO Title and Meta Description.
- Tie in social media.
Step 1 to building podcast SEO: Claim your podcast on Google Podcast Manager
Claiming your podcast on Google Podcast Manager is the same process that you follow when creating an account for Google My Business. This process allows you to “index” your podcast. Google indexing is paramount in SEO Land because it gives us an opportunity to get “credit” for what we do. I’ve provided a few links to other resources that explain what Google Indexing is and why it’s important, so feel free to check them out. The process below details how you set up this account. To remain transparent, these instructions came from Captivate’s blog about optimizing for podcasts.
Steps to Claim Your Podcast on Google Podcast Manager
- 1. Access Google Podcasts Manager through the Distribution page of your Captivate dashboard.
- Log in with your Google Account (or create one).
- Enter your podcast RSS feed URL.
- Preview your feed to make sure the episodes and artwork are pulling through correctly.
- Google will then send you a code to the email address associated with your RSS feed.
- Enter the code and verify ownership!
Step 2 to building podcast SEO: Make a website for your podcast
Some of you probably aren’t thrilled about this. Yes, you need to make a new website for your podcast. Ultimately, this is the best for SEO. In Google’s eyes, your practice and your podcast are two separate entities. Which, isn’t wrong. And, these two entities acquire SEO. Think of two siblings that play different sports. One plays soccer and the other plays basketball. While both children play sports, they can’t share equipment (no one wears shin guards in basketball and a soccer player would look silly wearing a basket jersey). It just won’t work. It’s the same for your practice and podcast. They need different equipment (i.e., websites) to both be successful.
Step 3 to building podcast SEO: Incorporating Keywords in Your Podcast Title
Just like service pages or blogs, it’s imperative that we include words and phrases that our ideal clients use. We’ve written many blogs about finding the right keywords for your ideal client. But, as a reminder, we want to use the words and phrases are clients are using. A way to incorporate this into a podcast would be to have a title full of keywords. While podcast SEO is a bit of a new concept for us, there are some transferable SEO skills to use when optimizing these podcasts. The best way to do this is to think about what your ideal client would search for. For example, it could be “podcasts about dealing with anxiety during the pandemic.” Or, “podcasts about setting boundaries.” Really think about what your ideal client would want to listen to.
Step 4 to building podcast SEO: Pick the name of your podcast very carefully.
This is your biggest opportunity to get keywords in. The name of your podcast does not have to be the same as your practice. Unless, of course, your practice name is full of keywords that you want to rank for. Even still, it will be more beneficial to have a different name for your podcast so you can build SEO for different sources: your website and your podcast. So, choose wisely!
Step 5 to building podcast SEO: Help Google build trust with your podcast
So, turns out Google does some pretty cool things with podcasts. When a podcast episode is posted, Google automatically transcribes the content. Google does this so it knows what the podcast episode is about and helps it to categorize the podcast appropriately. In return, this helps to have your podcast reach it’s intended audience.
However. And this is an important however.
Your podcast must have structure. I’ll say it again for the people in the back: Your podcast must have structure. Google needs to be able to follow a clear structure of your podcast. This means the content needs to be about the same topic or category. As we all know, Google’s top concern is giving the user a good experience. In Google land, that means providing the user with information that is relevant and trustworthy. And, that makes sense given the information that exists about the topic. It’s important to remember that Google will make this determination based on the transcription it creates from the episode. So, the content should be easily understood.
So, with this in mind, do what you need to.
Come prepared to class. Create an outline. If you’re featuring a guest on your show, give them questions to prepare ahead of time. Research the topics you’re covering. And, when you can, verbally site the sources (this way, Google will transcribe that source) so Google can determine that you know of other reputable sources.
Step 6 to building podcast SEO: Optimize your SEO Title and Meta Description
This is an example of crossover for SEO concepts. Much like optimizing a service page or blog post, you’ll need to optimize the meta title and meta description. For our friends that are new around here, here’s a brief rundown: a meta title is the title of the page that pops up on Google. If one of our amazing SEO specialists optimized your page, your meta title likely reads “The Service | Your Practice Name (sometimes) | Online Therapy/Counseling in Your Location.” The logic is that the title is full of keywords and location indicators.
A meta description is the blurb that shows up Google under your website title. It’s best to personalize this, otherwise Google will throw two random sentences on the meta description. The problem with that? Those two sentences don’t always make sense together. So, it’s much better if we have control over it and make it very compelling.
Step 7 to building podcast SEO: Tie in social media
We want to pull out all of the big guns when getting a podcast up and running. To make you’re reaching as many listeners as possible, it needs to be “seen” by users. A great way to do this is through social media. For those who aren’t familiar with the role of social media and SEO, social media can be a great way to get more eyeballs on your site. However, keep in mind that social media itself cannot directly “boost” your SEO. But, it can help get more people to your site when used effectively. Which, has the possibility of helping build SEO.
This relationship is a correlation, not causation.
So, with this in mind, a good tip is to share your podcast episodes on your practice’s social media page. Make a post about your podcast and provide a link to your page. This way, users can easily get to your site and start listening. Remember: we want to make this process as easy as possible for the user. The easier it is, the more accessible it is. And, the more likely they’ll return to your site.
Step 8 to building podcast SEO: Build Tons of Backlinks to Your Podcast Websites
You might be wondering why this step wasn’t after step 2 of making a website. This is on purpose. Backlinks are vital to building long-term SEO. Backlinks help to show Google that your website is trustworthy and reputable. For those of you that are new around here, a backlink is when another website links to your site. Essentially, this means that another website sees the content on your site to be valuable and useful. So much so, that they are willing to send their users to your site. There are many ways to build backlinks; some of which will surprise you!
However, building backlinks will take time.
Let me say that again. Building backlinks will take time. Building quality backlinks will require intentionality and dedication. But, it will be worth it. You can do this with your podcast website by linking to your practice’s website. However, do so sparingly. If this seems too “on purpose”, Google will catch on and be very upset. So upset that your website will be put on page farther back.
Hot tip for building backlinks & podcast SEO
When an episode goes live, send your guest a link to the episode with a badge or logo they can put on their website. This can be put on your social media pages, too. The goal is for them to link back. This way, you’ll get the “credit” for the backlink.

Grand Sichuan’s comprehensive menu comes with an annotated booklet describing the history and cooking process for each of the 100-plus dishes. Szechuan cuisine is based on heat, so prepare for a meal that is not only mouthwatering but eye-watering as well. The dandan rice-noodle starter, loaded with dried peppercorns, will open your sinuses. Waiters routinely caution those who order the memorable braised beef in chili sauce—it’s an inferno on a plate. Panfried auzhao chicken offers equally addictive flavor with less heat. Experiment, because gems abound on the menu, and you have nothing to lose but your fear of fire.

The Vatican will name a special "assistant" to advise the leadership of the troubled Legionaries of Christ, whose revised constitutions Pope Francis has still not approved four months after they were submitted to him.
Fr. Eduardo Robles Gil, general director of the Legionaries, made the announcement in a video message sent to the congregation's members Sunday and now accessible on YouTube.
Cardinal Joao Braz de Aviz and Archbishop Jose Rodriguez Carballo, respectively prefect and secretary of the Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life, informed Robles Gil of the plan for an adviser at a recent meeting, the general director said.
"We asked if this assistant would have a role in government, but we were told that no, our government was autonomous," Robles Gil said in the video.
The general director said he had not been told the identity of the assistant, but hoped to learn more at a July 3 meeting with the cardinal and archbishop.
Robles Gil said he also hoped to find out "how the constitutions are coming along, and if there is something we need to adapt or change."
Jesuit Fr. Federico Lombardi, the Vatican spokesman, said Wednesday that when Braz de Aviz and Rodriguez visit the Legionaries' headquarters in early July, they will "personally comment on some corrections that must be made to the text of the constitutions," which are "truly few" in number.
They also will communicate the name of the "pontifical assistant who -- as was previously foreseen -- will be a religious who knows the Legionaries and can be of assistance to the general council on juridical and other themes," the spokesman said.
The Legionaries' extraordinary general chapter, which closed Feb. 25, adopted the new constitution, which requires final approval by the pope, and chose Robles Gil as the congregation's first elected leader after nearly four years of Vatican-supervised reform.
The seven-week gathering of 61 Legionary priests from 11 countries also issued a letter condemning the "reprehensible and objectively immoral behavior" of the congregation's founder, Fr. Marcial Maciel Degollado, citing his "abuse of minor seminarians," "immoral acts with adult men and women," "arbitrary use of his authority and of material goods," "indiscriminate consumption of addictive medicines" and plagiarism.
The chapter was the culmination of a reform process that began with a Vatican-ordered apostolic visitation in 2009. That investigation was prompted by revelations that Maciel, who died in 2008, had fathered at least one illegitimate child and sexually abused boys in his own seminaries.
In 2010, the Vatican announced that Maciel had been guilty of "seriously and objectively immoral behavior" and "real crimes," and had lived a "life devoid of scruples and of genuine religious meaning." That same year, Pope Benedict XVI named Cardinal Velasio De Paolis to supervise the Legionaries' reform.

The New England Revolution re-signed two second-year players Wednesday: forwardmidfielder Zak Boggs and goalkeeper Tim Murray. Terms of the deals were not released.
Boggs, 24, made nine appearances, including four starts, in his rookie season. He scored two goals, both coming in his first-career start on at Columbus. He missed the final 17 matches of the season after suffering a concussion in late June.
Murray, 23, finished last season as the teams second-string goalkeeper. He played for four years at Providence College.
Were pleased that both Zak and Tim are returning this year, Revolution Vice President of Player Personnel Michael Burns said in a release. Both are promising young players who have worked hard during preseason to earn spots on the team.
TORONTO - Drew Moor scored early and Sebastian Giovinco struck late and Toronto FC overcame a tight schedule turnaround to beat the New England Revolution 2-0 on Friday night.
Toronto was coming off a 1-1 tie Wednesday night in Montreal in the first leg of the Canadian Championship final. The Revs had been off since a 2-1 home loss to Chicago on Saturday.
Moor's 11th-minute goal looked to be enough, with Toronto goalkeeper Alex Bono preserving the win with a save on Teal Bunbury's header in the 88th minute. But Giovinco added an insurance goal deep into stoppage time, bringing down a high ball before beating a defender and banging a left-footed shot home for his 50th goal in MLS regular-season and playoff action.
MLS leading Toronto (10-2-5) has won seven straight at home. New England (5-7-5) is 0-6-3 on the road.
Nemanja Nikolic and Luis Solignac scored and the Chicago Fire handed the New England Revolution their first home loss of the season, 2-1 on Saturday night.
Nikolic scored his MLS-leading 13th goal in the 18th minute, beating an offside trap and, after having his initial shot blocked by goalie Cody Cropper, firing in the rebound.
Three quick passes found Solignac in front of the goal as he finished from close range in the 61st for his fourth goal.
New England scored in the 70th when Juan Agudelo kept the ball alive with a header off a cross with Antonio Mlinar Delamea then heading in the ball for his first MLS goal.
New England, which outshot Chicago 24-8, spent the remaining minutes on the attack but failed to get the equalizer despite several frantic moments in front of Chicago's net.
New England (5-6-5) had five wins and two draws at home before the loss. Chicago (9-3-4) is unbeaten in eight matches.

Individual Voting Records, 85th Congress (1957–1959), Collection of the U.S. House of Representatives
Before electronic voting, House tally clerks hand wrote each Member's vote on a tally sheet, compiled into folios such as the one pictured above.
On this date, the House began a marathon session which spanned two calendar days and produced 45 roll calls before a vote transpired on the floor. Representatives were considering a bill to amend a law requiring equal television coverage for candidates of third parties in presidential debates. A small group of Republican Members from the 90th Congress
(1967–1969), led by Donald Rumsfeld
of Illinois and Robert Taft, Jr.,
of Ohio, stalled passage of the legislation which would pave the way for a face-to-face debate between Republican presidential nominee Richard M. Nixon
; the Democratic nominee, Vice President Hubert Humphrey
; and American Independent candidate George Wallace. Although the majority of Democrats and Republicans supported the measure, the dissenting Representatives postponed a vote on the bill by successfully demanding a full reading of the House Journal
from the previous day, along with a series of quorum calls. According to the New York Times
, the repeated roll calls—which, before the advent of electronic voting in 1973, took an average of 25 minutes—broke the previous House record of 22. During the extended procedures, many Members slept in the chamber, while others ventured to the secured Speaker’s Lobby where Del Clawson
of California entertained Representatives by playing his clarinet. Ultimately, Speaker of the House John McCormack
ordered Sergeant at Arms Zeake Johnson
to lock the chamber doors in order to maintain a quorum. On October 9, 1968, the 27-hour deadlock came to a close when the House easily passed the bill by a vote of 280 to 35.

Directly after class last Wednesday I headed to the airport for a few days in New York. Thursday night was the Design Legends Gala — a somewhat stuffy and decidedly boring black tie affair, but a nonetheless important one as the AIGA honored three legendary contributors to the profession with the AIGA Medal: Pablo Ferro (reel above), Carin Goldberg and Doyald Young.
The AIGA Medal is the highest honor the profession bestows on its own — kind of like an Academy Award for graphic design.
In addition, several AIGA fellows were honored. Each chapter can award one Fellow award per year. The San Francisco chapter can award up to three, since we’re so much bigger than other chapters. This year all three were from CCA: Leslie Becker, Michael Cronan and my former teacher, boss and longtime mentor Doug Akagi.
The Gala is a kind of who’s who of graphic designers — so much so that last names are sufficient to give you an idea of who was there: Heller, Vanderbyl, Sagmeister, Sandhaus, Lupton, Hainsworth, Millman, Arnett, Bantjes, Vit, Bielenberg, Bierut, Chermayeff, Hodgson, Fong, Glaser, Kidd, Morla, Pirtle, Pullman, Sahre, Scher… you get the idea.
For me though, the highlight of the trip (besides connecting with old friends and making a few new ones) was the opportunity to visit one of my favorite paintings.
I Saw the Figure 5 in Gold is one of only a few abstract paintings by Charles Demuth. I’m not particularly fond of most of his work, but this particular painting is a miraculous and captivating instance of Precisionism/Cubist Realism. It is at once extremely technical and analytical and yet very personal, emotional and evocative. The painting is based on a poem by William Carlos Williams called The Great Figure. In it Williams captures with exquisite cadence and visual eloquence the sound of a fire truck passing by on the street:
Among the rain
I saw the figure 5
on a red
to gong clangs
and wheels rumbling
through the dark city
Williams’ ability to observe, capture and celebrate meaning in the most mundane events has long been a source of inspiration to me. I think I mentioned that my firm’s identity is based on another of his poems.
What Williams accomplishes with words, Demuth does with oils. Both are master technicians whose precise constructions transcend their own technicality and become deeply, emotionally resonant. It’s a little like seeing images from the Hubble Telescope — those amazing, gestural arrangements of gasses that simultaneously suggest the great science and great mystery of the universe.
This is what we strive for in design.

Big Boy Cocktail
1/2 Brandy (1 1/2 oz Korbel VSOP)
1/4 Cointreau (3/4 oz Cointreau)
1/4 Sirop-de-Citron (3/4 oz Homemade Limoncello)
(dash lemon juice)
Shake well and strain into cocktail glass.
After finding a couple DIY recipes for “Sirop-de-Citron” I realized the procedure for making it is about the same as for limoncello, so, instead of buying a bottle of Monin Lemon Syrup, or making it myself, I subbed in limoncello.
I also couldn’t quite face drinking this without a dash of lemon juice. Still pretty sweet.
This post is one in a series documenting my ongoing effort to make all of the cocktails in the Savoy Cocktail Book, starting at the first, Abbey, and ending at the last, Zed.

In birding circles, Costa Rica is better known for protected areas, quetzal tours, and glittering displays of hummingbirds than the things that fly in urban spots. That makes sense. I mean, who comes to Costa Rica to bird on city streets? In remnant riparian zones? In the final bits and pieces of green space that dot a typical human dominated landscape?
The birding in Costa Rica is certainly much more exciting in mature forest, in larger areas of green space. It’s the same everywhere. It’s why, while growing up in an urban situation, I always wanted to go to “the country”. In my mind, that’s where the birds and wild things were, out there in the far away places on maps and at the ends of roads. Although I knew that most of the birds and animals were in some wild, far off place, that didn’t stop me from looking for them closer to home. I didn’t really have a choice but I found a lot more than I had expected.
Rough Cooper’s Hawks, occasional harriers and other raptors flapping through the brittle November airs of a vacant weedy field. American Kestrels and cowbirds and lost Ring-necked Pheasants using that same area of grass. Blue Jays and Northern Cardinals, Downy Woodpeckers. Nighthawks in the evening summer sky, Chimney Swifts zipping over the street. During migration, the songs of occasional warblers and a Great-crested Flycatcher or two would suddenly be present.
It was also a short walk to a sliver of wild, to the veritable bird important habitats of the Niagara Gorge where hundreds, even thousands, of gulls could be seen. Seasonally, a good number of ducks were there too along with loons and other choice waterbirds. In the small city of Niagara Falls, at the edges of concrete and brick, birds were waiting to be discovered. Field guides indicated that various birds were possible, just maybe even the Bobwhite.
Those books talked about the small, cool looking quail as being a bird of scrubby fields and weedy habitats but Niagara seemed to be just a bit too far north of their range. Could they somehow make it to the fields where we played baseball? To habitats at the edge of town? As much as I wished that could be the case, we truly were just a bit too far north of their range, I could only imagine how the bobwhite might say its name.
Today, in Costa Rica, I’m too far south for the Northern Bobwhite. So far south that another, more tropical bobwhite takes its place. Known as the Crested Bobwhite, this small quail persists in any number of weedy fields, even lives on some coffee farms.
It might not look like a Northern Bobwhite but it sounds just about the same, saying its name, sometimes all day long. The one on the other side of the street has been doing that, was saying its name all last year. It’s a wonder that it keeps singing because last year’s field is steadily being tractored into becoming a residential development. Any day now, I expect the bobwhite to stop singing or (hopefully) call from coffee fields on the other side of the new gated community. For the meantime, it insists and persists in this urban landscape.
For the moment, the future of other birds in this neighborhood is a bit brighter. The pair of Barred Antshrikes that sing out back are building a nest. Red-billed Pigeons and Yellow-green Vireos sing and join a morning chorus of Rufous-naped and Cabanis’s Wrens, White-tipped Dove, and the hooting of Lesson’s Motmots. A Ringed Kingfisher makes an occasional flyby, it somehow finds food in the rushing stream out back. Brown Jays also flutter by and those are just a few of the species that still occur. This might not be “the country”, but each morning holds a surprise, each morning has its special bird.
This morning, the surprise was the call of Laughing Falcon. We have heard one now and then but it still seems out of place, seems much more like a bird of hotter, more extensive natural tropical habitats. Since it eats snakes, hearing one tells us that other hidden life is out there somewhere close by (on one 3 a.m. drive, I did see a fairly large Boa close to our place…).
The visual highlight came in the form of a mixed flock of swifts that foraged low, right over treetops to take advantage of some hidden insect hatch. Big White-collared Swifts, several Chestnut-collared Swifts, and a few locally nesting Vaux’s Swifts were joined by at least two Black Swifts (!) and either Spot-fronted or White-chinned Swifts (they didn’t call and I couldn’t see enough of their diagnostic faces to identify them).
The aerial birds zipped through the humid air, back and forth over the trees, occasionally flying close overhead. Foraging here, they become urban birds. By evening, they fly back to waterfall roosts in cloud forests of the mountains, go back to being species of the wild places, to being birds of the country.

Sleights of Mind: What The Neuroscience of Magic Reveals About Our Everyday Deceptions
US: Nov 2011
Until the invention of the MRI machine, which allowed scientists to monitor neurological behavior on a second-by-second basis, psychologists treated the brain like a black box, using lab experiments and field research to deduce the cognitive principles behind human reasoning. But, as Stephen L. Macknick and Susana Martinez-Conde, a married pair of neuroscientists, write in Sleights of Mind: What the Neuroscience of Magic Reveals About Our Everyday Deceptions, in many ways, the best psychological experiments occur outside of the lab.
Dismissing magicians who claim paranormal power as charlatans, they see magic tricks as “testing many of the same cognitive processes [the authors] study. It doesn’t matter in the slightest that the entire audience knows it is being tricked; it falls for each trick every time it is performed, show after show, night after night, generation after generation. We thought, if only we could be that deft and clever in the lab!”
The book attempts to bring the two seemingly disparate worlds together, exploring what the practice of magic can teach us about the brain while delving into the science behind many of magic’s greatest illusions.The authors, who co-wrote the book with New York Times science writer Sandra Blakeslee, are unabashed magic fans. The book begins with some of the today’s most famous magicians—the Amazing Randi, the Great Tomsini, Penn & Teller—beguiling their colleagues at a neuroscience convention and ends with their audition at the Magic Castle in Hollywood, where they perform their own brand of scientifically-influenced magic.
It’s a somewhat clumsy attempt to shoe-horn a narrative on top of what is essentially a psychology class for non-majors textbook. Over 12 chapters, the authors use scientific principles like “change blindness” and “the misinformation effect” to explain how magic tricks work even when we know what the magicians are doing.
Sleights of Mind isn’t the type of book that demands a reader tear through it front to back. It’s more informative than entertaining, full of little stories and slices of life that can change your perspective on everyday situations.
The underlying principle behind most successful magic is what neuroscientists call “the narrative bias”: the fact that our brains unconsciously search for explanations for what’s going on in the world. Because our capacity for attention is narrow, the brain relies on past experience to make assumptions about the world around us. That’s how movie projectors work: seeing hundreds of images flash by every second creates the illusion of motion, with the brain filling in the blanks.
In a famous experiment on attention, volunteers were asked to count the number of passes made by one basketball team during a game. After a few minutes, the video was stopped and they were asked if anything out of the ordinary happened. Half the people who watched the video didn’t notice the man in the gorilla suit who walked to the middle of the court, stared at the camera and pounded his chest.
Even more intriguingly, when scientists used eye-tracking recordings on the volunteers, they found that most of the people who didn’t notice the gorilla in the video looked directly at it. Because they were so focused on the task they were “assigned”, and because a mascot walking on to the court is so out of the ordinary, their brains ignored what their eyes saw.
Similarly, if you see a coin in a magician’s hand, see him open his hand as if he were dropping it into a bucket and then hear the sound of a coin hitting the bucket, your visual attention system is going to connect the dots for you. You will “see” the coin fall into the bucket even if it has never actually left the magician’s hand.
No matter how realistic they may make it seem, magicians can’t make things disappear or conjure objects out of thin air. Instead, they take advantage of the magician inside of all us—the brain.

Love romance,laughing and having fun. Board games, cards, sports and anything you can do with someone. I love movies, music, and playing sports. I enjoy conversation and I am looking to meet someone interesting and to get to know them and build a friendship and see where it goes from there. So yes i want something longterm but am willing to take it slow to put the proper building blocks of communication,trust, and understanding on the foundation of friendship so the relationship can be rock solid.

|Stage Fright (1987)|
POSTED BY TERENCE NUZUM, May 7, 2015 Share
The Giallo. Stories of masked knife wielding maniacs intertwined with a mystery or police procedural plot has been around since Edgar Wallace and the Krimi films of Germany. But it was Italy's unique and visually flamboyant film take on the genre that made the archetype a household name in horror. By 1987 the Giallo was on its downward spiral. The grand old man of Giallo, Mario Bava, was dead and the savior Dario Argento was seriously succumbing to his own laziness and self indulgences. Out of this depression came a breath of fresh air, Stage Fright. Michelle Soavi's Stage Fright brought life back into Italian horror even if for just a few years. Soavi had already been an actor in Fulci's City of the Living Dead, and was currently working as an assitant director for Joe D'Amato and Argento, when he was finally offered a chance to direct a film of his own.
Stage Fright tells the simple tale of an escaped lunatic who breaks into a theatre while an acting troupe is preparing for a stage musical. The madman dons an owl mask and carnage ensues. The plot is completely unoriginal and it is Soavi's visual touches and flourishes that make the film a slight classic. For one, the deaths are inventive. One in particular involves a power drill through a door and through the victim on the other side. Then there is the main set piece. After all the victims are killed, the owl-masked killer props them up on stage in various poses, before sitting down with them like he has done a hard days work. The image of bodies and decapitated heads propped up in living positions, juxtaposed with the surrealism of a man with a giant owl head, is an unforgettable image that you will not shake till days later. Hypnotic is the best way to describe the scene. The ending is also a weird surrealistic device that does and doesn't quite work.
Stage Fright isn't quite the classic that Profondo Rosso (Deep Red) or Blood and Black Lace are, but it easily breathed new life into a genre that was dying. Soavi's The Church followed soon after, as did countless Lamberto Bava films. The well soon ran dry and Soavi took the smart route and had enough talent to back out and return to cinematography and second unit for Terry Gilliam, but not before he left us with one last horror gem, Dellamore Dellamorte (Cemetary Man) in 1994. Stage Fright combined the Italian Gaillo with the American slasher film and if anything it gave us one of the genres brightest stars in Michele Soavi.

TvN‘s Start-Up actor Kim Seon Ho has joined together with Kenzo Parfums for a photoshoot with W Korea Magazine! The images give off a gorgeously fresh vibe.
In the following interview, Kim Seon Ho began by keeping with the theme and discussing scents. As his popularity skyrocketed with Start-Up, fans began to look for him in other series and shared scenes they liked amongst themselves. One popular scene was from MBC‘s 2018 series You Drive Me Crazy, where he tells a girl, “I can’t get your scent off of my body.”
He revealed, however, that the director almost cut the line out for being too cheesy.
I said, ‘I’ll try it sweetly once, but if it’s weird, please edit it out later.’ The camera director also said that we should emphasize that line. They were a really easygoing people. After seeing my acting, they said, ‘That’s good!’
—Kim Seon Ho
Going back to his rising popularity with Start-Up, he shared that when the series was airing, his friends texted him compliments and congratulations on the performance. He confessed that he wasn’t really used to getting a lot of attention and praise. He continued, “After ‘Start-Up,’ I filmed my first-ever commercial. Although it was an ad that we settled on before the series, I received another ad offer soon after. After that, I got more and more. That’s when I knew, ‘This is how you know you’ve gotten a positive response.’”
In 2019, Kim Seon Ho revealed the traumatic story of how he witnessed his mother being attacked by a mugger when he was little. He never thought that he would be able to do work involving the public due to this event.
However, recently he revealed how he overcame that. He began to follow his friend in joining an acting academy. A teacher comforted him then by saying, “Rather than an acting problem, it seems like you have a different problem.” He was then able to overcome his trauma because of acting. He struggled with communicating with others and forming friendships due to fear, but acting taught him how to behave in a social setting.
Just having a script in my hand made me nervous, as if that alone made me amount to something. I never thought of wanting to succeed or become rich. When I first started acting, my parents told me that since they were so poor, they were unable to dream, but that I should live my life while dreaming.
—Kim Seon Ho
He continued by sharing that when people ask his parents about him, they say that he has a dream every day without rest.
Each person has their own scent, but the problem is whether there are people who recognize that scent. I feel that many new people have been able to discover the scent of Kim Seon Ho. I realized that in addition to playing your role well, there are other ways to do your part. If you’re a lead character, you need to be able to create an atmosphere where everyone on set is able to love and cherish one another. I felt that through Nam Joo Hyuk and Suzy.
—Kim Seon Ho

Five activists from Occupy Boston were scheduled to begin trial this Monday. But today, without warning, the Suffolk County District Attorney dropped the charges against them and 22 others who refused to take the deals offered by prosecutors.
When I heard this, I thought it was time to celebrate. I was there at the Boston Police raids in October 2011 and December 2011. I’ve seen how looming legal action has taken its toll on good people from Occupy Boston. Urszula Masny-Latos, Executive Director of the Massachusetts chapter of the National Lawyers Guild (NLG) and a woman I’ve grown to trust, even said the following in a press release:
We believe that the DA’s decision amounts to an acknowledgment of the unconstitutionality of the arrests and criminal charges that had been brought against hundreds of Occupy Boston participants, and shows that the state has finally admitted that the demonstrations by Occupy activists were legal and constitutionally protected.
But this dropping of charges isn’t being done to exonerate the activists involved. It’s being done to avoid giving the arrestees and their attorneys a platform. Reading more of Nation Lawyer Guild press release, it’s easy to see why the District Attorney wants to unlock horns with Occupy Boston and the NLG:
Fully ready to contest the charges at trial, the defendants and their representatives from the National Lawyers Guild (NLG) had subpoenaed Mayor Menino, Police Commissioner Ed Davis, and Nancy Brennan (former head of the Greenway Conservancy) to explain why the City of Boston and its police department unconstitutionally applied the Massachusetts trespass and unlawful assembly laws to impinge upon Occupy Boston participants’ rights to assemble, to express their protected speech, and to petition the government. In addition, they had also subpoenaed Joshua Bekenstein and Mitt Romney (of Bain Capital), and Robert Gallery (CEO of Bank of America) to address their role in constructing and perpetuating excessive corporate power and an economic system that favors the wealthiest 1% of the population at the expense of the remaining 99%– an undemocratic system in which the voices of the people are ignored. The police action in arresting occupiers demonstrated that voices of conscience that speak out against social and economic inequality are not only ignored, they are unlawfully silenced by the state’s use of violence, fear, threat, and repression.
Mitt Romney and Robert Gallery? That could have been a very interesting day in court. I’ll be watching closely to see what happens next. Some folks are talking about the possibility of a civil trial. In the meanwhile, take a look at the rest of the NLG’s press release here and this intense post by Allison “Una Spenser” Nevitt at the Daily Kos that points out some serious problems with a report given by the Boston Globe.
If you are sympathetic to the ideas that fueled the Occupy movement, please donate to the NLG. Without their constant and continued assistance, we basically would have been at the mercy of the cops and the courts. A direct link for that is here.

What are Lack of Digestive Enzymes?
Lack of digestive enzymes in cats is caused by a maldigestion disorder called Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency (EPI). The pancreas provides two very important functions – exocrine and endocrine. The endocrine function plays a role in controlling blood sugar and releasing insulin into the bloodstream. The exocrine function plays an important role in digestion, releasing digestive enzymes into the duodenum (short portion of the small intestine). A lack of these digestive enzymes caused by inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis), pancreatic cancer, or fluke infestation, can lead to exocrine pancreatic insufficiency.
When a cat is constantly hungry, but losing weight, and has foul-smelling, semi-formed stools, this could be an indication that your cat is lacking in digestive enzymes. Digestion is the processes of breaking down food to be absorbed into the bloodstream and distributed throughout the body. The digestive process begins as soon as your cat puts food in its mouth; as saliva breaks down food and the food makes its way down the digestive tract, the pancreas (a v-shaped organ that sits between the left kidney and duodenum) begins to release three important digestive enzymes. The protease enzyme is released to break down proteins, lipase to digest fats, and amylase for starches. When your cat is lacking in these three digestive enzymes, the food eaten will not be properly absorbed into the body.
Symptoms of Lack of Digestive Enzymes in Cats
When a cat is suffering from a lack of digestive enzymes, the first few symptoms you will notice will be the feline’s behavior and appearance. Without the ability to absorb nutrients from the food, your cat’s body will think it’s starving. The feline will always be hungry, continuously asking you for food, meowing and checking her bowl for kibble. The food the feline does eat never stops for absorption, quickly passing through her in the form of foul-smelling diarrhea. Loose and unformed stools can cause the feline to become dehydrated, making the cat consume more water (polydipsia). The cat’s skin will soon dry out and the hair will become brittle, or perhaps fall out (alopecia). The lack of digestive enzymes will make the feline loose a large amount a weight, which can put stress on the liver, causing fatty liver disease. Lastly, if the cat does not receive medical care, the feline could quickly die of starvation.
Causes of Lack of Digestive Enzymes in Cats
Lack of digestive enzymes in cats can be caused by an inflamed pancreas (pancreatitis), which can then cause the pancreas to halt the release of insulin. When insulin production has ceased, the cat may develop diabetes mellitus as a secondary condition of EPI. Lack of digestive enzymes can also be caused by pancreatic hypoplasia, pancreatic cancer and chronic pancreatitis. Middle-aged and elderly cats are at risk for developing a lack in digestive enzymes, but it should be noted that EPI is generally an uncommon health problem in cats.
Diagnosis of Lack of Digestive Enzymes in Cats
Your veterinarian will ask you a number of diagnostic questions while he begins a physical examination on your cat. Knowing the answers to questions such as, when the problem first started, your cat’s bathroom habits, and any recent changes to diet or medication will aid the veterinarian in his/her diagnostic exam. It is not uncommon for the veterinarian to ask for a fecal sample from your cat with digestive distress. A stool sample taken directly from the litter pan will cause false readings on a fecal flotation test, so talk to your veterinarian about proper sample collecting technique. A fecal flotation test will detect the possibility for Fluke infestation, plus the doctor will be able to see the degree of food breakdown in better perspective under a microscope.
Next, your veterinarian may want to perform a test called the serum trypsin-like immunoreactivity test. This test is specially designed to detect exocrine pancreatic insufficiency and is performed on the serum of a cat’s blood, therefore, this test requires a blood sample. Image testing, such as an MRI or x-ray, may also be a tool your vet uses in his/her diagnostic proceedings to locate pancreas cancer.
Treatment of Lack of Digestive Enzymes in Cats
Treating lack of digestive enzymes in cats can be done through pancreatic enzyme supplementation. The enzymes themselves can be given directly to your cat in the form of a powder, tablet, capsule, or a raw pancreas. Talk to your veterinarian about the best treatment option for you and your cat, as each case is different.
Recovery of Lack of Digestive Enzymes in Cats
The prognosis for lack of digestive enzymes in cats is very positive for those who have received treatment earlier enough to not develop a secondary condition. The prognosis is unknown for cats with secondary EPI conditions such as diabetes mellitus, or those who have pancreatic cancer.
For the majority of cats with a lack of digestive enzymes, treatment is required daily or with each meal your cat takes. With the restoration of digestive enzymes, your cat will be able to absorb food, gain weight and restore her general state of health. A dietary change may also be recommended by your veterinarian to coincide with the prescribed supplementation.

President Bush, fed up with watching reruns of The Office and Grey's Anatomy has decided to step in to "put an end to this television terrorism."
In a campaign he has dubbed "yuck and ha" he has declared the Riders Union largely responsible for the strike and has levied heavy fines. "The Riders Union has got to understand America will not stand for these threats to our people or our country."
Mike Jockey head of the Riders Union had this to say, "Hey man, we just race horses, we don't have anything to do with the strike." In response, the president, accused of being a one trick pony has appealed to congress to start a bombing raid on the stalls and race tracks. "We have received credible intelligence reports that they have weapons of mass interruption to the fall lineup. America will not rest until our country and it's citizens are safe from these little terrorist."
Jockey's response of "Whoa, there easy big fella, just hold your horses." Fell upon deaf ears as Bush called an emergency meeting of congress to declare war. More on this story as it breaks.

Paper Mill Playhouse announced the complete casting for the world premiere musical A Bronx Tale: The Musical. The musical will be co-directed by Robert De Niro and Jerry Zaks, with choreography by Sergio Trujillo. The show features a book by Chazz Palminteri, music by Alan Menken and lyrics by Glenn Slater.
Based on the real life story by Chazz Palminteri and the well-known film‚ A Bronx Tale: The Musical is set against the backdrop of racial strife and organized crime in the 1960s. It is the story of an Italian-American teenager finding his path in life as he must choose between the father who raised him and a mob-boss father figure who fascinates him.
Leading the company are Jason Gotay (Bring It On, Spider-Man) as Calogero, Joshua Colley (Les Misérables, Newsies) as Young Calogero, Nick Cordero (Bullets Over Broadway: Tony nomination, Rock of Ages) as Sonny, Richard H. Blake (Jersey Boys, Wicked) as Lorenzo, Coco Jones (Disney Channel's Let It Shine) as Jane and Lucia Giannetta (Les Misérables, Leap of Faith) as Rosina. A Bronx Tale: The Musical will run at the Millburn, New Jersey theater from February 4, 2016, through March 6, 2016.
A Bronx Tale: The Musical will be performed at Paper Mill Playhouse eight times a week, Wednesday through Sunday. Tickets are on sale now starting at $32. Tickets may be purchased by calling 973.376.4343 or online at www.PaperMill.org.
"A Bronx Tale has always had a very special meaning to me," commented co-director Robert De Niro. "The story is so rich and I look forward to working with Jerry, Chazz, Alan and Glenn to bring it to the stage in its latest incarnation."
"I've been in love with the story of A Bronx Tale ever since I directed Chazz Palminteri's one-man show on Broadway a few years ago," remarked co-director Jerry Zaks. "A Bronx Tale: The Musical is a universal story and I think it's going to be a real treat for audiences to experience. I'm really looking forward to working on this new musical at Paper Mill Playhouse this winter."
"There are only three things you can do to an audience - make them laugh, make them cry or you can scare them. In A Bronx Tale: The Musical we do all three," commented book writer Chazz Palminteri.
"I'm truly excited to be returning to Paper Mill Playhouse with this musical of A Bronx Tale," said Academy Award-winning composer Alan Menken. "As a longtime fan of Chazz Palminteri, I have treasured the opportunity to bring his incredible story to life through songs that are inspired by the Bronx neighborhood he grew up in, the unique world of his formative years and the rich sounds of late 50's and early 60's pop music."

I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 running remote desktop for me to connect to from my Windows 7 laptop when I am out of the office.
So when I am at home, I can log into the server using remote desktop via the IP address of the server just fine.
Now when I take my laptop to the office, on the server's local network, it won't let me connect via IP, like it used to. It will connect perfectly fine using the machine name, however.
This just started happening on Friday - I connected to the server Friday morning via IP from the local network. A few hours later, it would no longer accept connections via IP address, even though I had changed nothing!

Alfa Romeo closed the gap slightly in Russia, and are still retaining hope of catching Williams for eighth place in this year’s Constructors’ Championship.
From the Hungarian Grand Prix onwards, Williams have improved considerably and collected 23 points since then with George Russell scoring in four of the last five races.
That has put them 16 ahead of Alfa Romeo, who reduced the deficit slightly when Kimi Raikkonen more than doubled their tally for the season with the four he collected by finishing eighth at Sochi.
After Hungary, where Williams opened their account for the first time since 2019 with a double top-10 finish, Xevi Pujolar, Alfa Romeo’s head of trackside engineering, said “it will not be easy, but possible” to catch up.
He added at the time: “The difference in points I think is not huge and we’ve still a lot of races to do, so I think we can do that.”
Now there are only seven grands prix remaining and while Williams have arguably progressed past Alfa Romeo in terms of competitiveness, Pujolar is not giving up.
“We keep pushing,” he told reporters. “We do our best every race and we will fight until the end of the season and we will see after Abu Dhabi if we did it [beat Williams] or not.
“At the moment, we just try to get the best of everything every time. That is it, we focus on the best of ourselves.”
Show your support for Williams with their latest official merchandise collection
It was not a completely representative race in Russia because of the late downpour that shook up the order, but nevertheless Alfa Romeo will have been encouraged by the better result for Raikkonen as he enters the final stretch of his Formula 1 driving career before retirement.
From Williams’ side, their head of vehicle performance, Dave Robson, said there was now the opportunity for them to apply a few more risks strategy-wise given they have such a sizeable advantage over Alfa Romeo.
“I think there is some truth in that,” said Robson. “It definitely unlocks a bit of freedom. But I think we can take confidence in the decisions we’ve been taking and we can carry on with that approach, and there’s a lot of truth in offence being a good form of defence in this kind of situation.
“It’s far better that we are ahead of them and then controlling things during the race.”

Any of a Diamond's 4C's can be altered to suit any budget, but for me, the most important C is the Cut. An excellent or ideal cut will always extrude pure sophistication and have that unmistakable diamond sparkle that has to be seen to be appreciated.
What is a Diamond Shape?
A diamond shape is the specific manner in which a diamond is meticulously cut and crafted. When found in their natural, unprocessed state, diamonds possess an irregular and organic form. It is through the intricate process of cutting and polishing that these precious gems are transformed into the iconic shapes we recognise and cherish. Among these shapes, the classic and widely recognised round brilliant cut stands as the most traditional. All other diamond shapes fall under the category of 'fancy shape diamonds,' including popular variations such as oval, cushion, and princess cuts. Diamonds are skillfully fashioned into two primary categories of shapes: the brilliant cut, designed to unleash an extraordinary display of brilliance and sparkle, and the step cut, chosen to accentuate the diamond's remarkable clarity and elegance.
What are the different diamond shapes?
Diamonds come in various shapes, each with its unique charm and characteristics. Here are some of the most common diamond shapes:
- Round Brilliant Cut
- Princess Cut
- Emerald Cut
- Oval Cut
- Cushion Cut
- Pear Cut
- Heart Cut
Which diamond shapes are most popular for engagement rings?
The popularity of diamond shapes for engagement rings can vary by region and over time. However, the round brilliant cut diamond has historically been the most popular choice for engagement rings, in some regions, it represented over 70% of all engagement ring purchases and at Joshua James Jewellery around ...% (lets say half) of clients choose a round diamond. Following closely behind in popularity are diamond shapes such as oval, cushion, and pear. Notably, the once-dominant princess cut has yielded its position as the second most sought-after diamond shape to the gracefully rounded forms of oval, emerald, and pear diamonds. This shift in preference underscores the enduring appeal of softer, more organic silhouettes in contemporary engagement ring designs.
What diamond shapes look biggest?
The marquise diamond shape has the largest appearance of any shape. It has a similar elongated look as the oval and pear shapes, but both ends form tapered points. The marquise shape will always look the largest because those tapered points create the largest surface area of all the shapes.
Which diamond shape sparkles the most?
Round-cut diamonds are known to sparkle the most! The standard round-cut diamond features 57 facets (58 including one on the bezel) specifically designed to amplify the diamond’s brilliance and radiance. Round diamonds are able to create the most dazzling and captivating sparkle among all diamond shapes.
Which diamond shape is more valuable?
Round brilliant cut diamonds command the highest prices among all diamond shapes, primarily due to their widespread popularity. Round diamonds, being the most favoured shape, constitute over 50% of the diamond market today.
How many Carats should an Engagement Ring be?
In the UK, the average carat size for an engagement ring stands at 0.6 carats. When determining the carat size for your engagement ring, it's essential to consider a budget that aligns with both you and your partner's. Your engagement ring serves as a powerful symbol of your love and commitment to your future spouse. If the desired engagement ring is not within your budget, our financing option is available to help you make your dream ring a reality.
What is the history of diamond cuts?The history of diamond cuts dates back to ancient India, where the earliest known diamonds were simply polished rather than cut with facets. Over time, diamond cutting techniques evolved, with significant contributions from European jewellers in the 17th and 18th centuries. The most famous and influential diamond cut is the round brilliant cut, developed in the early 20th century, which maximises the stone's brilliance and sparkle. Today, various diamond cuts, including princess, emerald, and marquise, offer diverse options for showcasing the beauty of these precious gems.
Did you know…That there is in fact a difference between diamond cuts and diamond shapes. Diamond cut pertains to the precise manner in which a diamond is cut and polished (one of the four C's by which a diamond is graded), enhancing its ability to absorb and reflect light through its facets. On the other hand, a diamond's shape refers to the geometric form into which it is cut, defining its overall silhouette.
Overall, diamond shapes are not just exquisite gemstones but also intricate works of nature's artistry. Their diverse range of shapes, including the classic round brilliant, the romantic heart, the elegant oval, and the striking princess cut, among many others, offer a multitude of options for individuals seeking the perfect expression of their personal style and sentiment.
Each diamond shape has its own unique characteristics and visual appeal, making it essential to consider one's preferences, lifestyle, and intended purpose when selecting the ideal diamond shape.
Beyond their aesthetic value, diamonds hold a timeless allure, symbolising love, commitment, and enduring beauty.
The choice of a diamond shape is a deeply personal one, and each shape carries its own story and significance. Whichever diamond shape you choose, it is bound to represent a unique and cherished moment, making it a timeless and meaningful treasure.

We want you to get the most from your Fund benefits, but we understand the world of pensions can be challenging and full of jargon.
Our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) section is here to help you understand your pension benefits, how to get the most from them and support you in making the right choices for your needs.
First and foremost, you are actively saving for your future. As well as the benefit of getting a pension for life when you retire, there are many other benefits:
Follow these simple steps to get the most from your pension.
Register for a myFund account. Your myFund account allows you to check the value of your benefits, learn about your options and manage your AVC account (if you have one).
The cost of providing your pension benefits is shared between you and your employer through the contributions you both make.
You typically pay 40% of the cost of providing benefits and your employer pays 60%. You do not pay tax on your Fund contributions (subject to certain limits) as they are taken from your salary before tax is deducted.
The contribution percentages for each section of the Fund are as follows:
|Section||Member rate||Employer rate|
NB: 1970 Section contributions are based on Pensionable Salary minus 1.5 times the basic state pension. 2007 and CARE Sections’ contributions are based on Pensionable Salary.
Your NRA is the age from which you can take your full pension benefits without any reduction factors applied for early retirement. You may be able to take your benefits earlier than your NRA, but they will be reduced depending on how early you take them.
The table below shows when members of each Section can take their benefits without any reductions.
The Fund’s death benefits include a pension for an eligible spouse or another adult who was financially dependent on you when you died. Pensions can also be paid to eligible children. You should refer to your member guide for more information.
There is also a lump-sum death benefit of four times your final salary. This is payable to beneficiaries at the discretion of the Management Committee. You should complete a nomination so that the Management Committee knows who you would like the lump sum to go to.
You can nominate quickly and easily online by logging into your myFund account.
If you're unable to nominate online, you can download a form, complete and return to the Fund's administrator, Railpen.
If you are in BRASS and/or AVC Extra, you must take those benefits at the same time as your Fund pension benefits, or transfer them to another arrangement.
Your benefits estimate will include your BRASS benefits.
AVC Extra provides benefits in a different way to BRASS, so you will receive a separate estimate of your AVC Extra benefits when you request an estimate of your Fund benefits.
‘Pension Plus’ is BTP’s salary sacrifice scheme. It means that your pension contributions are made in a way that costs less for you, while not affecting your pension benefits in any way.
Put simply, you give up (or ‘sacrifice’) an amount of your salary equivalent to your annual pension contributions. In return, your employer pays those contributions on your behalf. This means your National Insurance contributions go down, but pension benefits are not affected.
Speak to your employer about applying for Pension Plus.
You will continue to be a Fund member, but your contributions might change during your period of leave as they are based on your actual earnings. However the benefits you continue to earn whilst you are on parental leave continue to be based on your normal salary.
If your pay reduces to nil, your employer will continue to pay contributions on your behalf, but you will need to pay these back to your employer when you return to work.
If you pay Additional Voluntary Contributions, they will continue as normal unless you decide to change or stop your contributions during this time.
You will be treated as though you have left the Fund and you will have to pay any contribution arrears owed to your employer. If you can’t do so, your employer can request that the arrears are taken from your pension benefits.
You will need to check with your employer about continuing membership of the Fund whilst you are on a career break. You may be able to ‘pause’ your membership, so you don’t accrue any membership during your break but you are not treated as leaving the Fund. You would not need to make contributions whilst you are away from work.
If you face divorce or the dissolution of a civil partnership, your pension is likely to be considered along with your other assets when a financial settlement is worked out.
A court order can be made during the proceedings to transfer part of the value of your pension benefits to your ex-spouse/partner.
Read more in your guide on divorce and dissolution.
You can apply for an incapacity pension if:
Your application, including medical evidence, will be considered by the Management Committee. A medical adviser is always present to assist the Committee. If your application is approved, you may also receive an additional period of membership to increase your pension. Read our Incapacity Benefits guide.
HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) allows contributions paid into registered pension schemes to benefit from tax relief. The benefits paid out of such schemes can include a pension, which is taxable and a lump sum which is paid tax-free (up to a limit).
Recycling occurs where a pension scheme member intentionally uses some or all of the tax-free lump sum that they receive from a pension scheme to significantly increase their contributions to another (or the same) pension scheme, in order to gain further tax relief and further entitlement to a tax-free lump sum.
It doesn’t matter if the tax-free lump sum is directly or indirectly reinvested into a pension scheme – this is still classed as recycling. An example of indirectly reinvesting the tax-free lump sum is to use your personal savings to significantly increase your contributions to a pension scheme, and replenish these savings with the tax-free lump sum.
Under HMRC rules, a tax-free lump sum must not be used in a way which exploits the generous tax relief available by ‘recycling’ the tax-free lump sum received. These rules apply to UK and non-UK residents, and to individuals making contributions into overseas pension schemes.
If HMRC finds that recycling has occurred, it will impose tax charges on the member and possibly the scheme too.
Members of the Fund are reminded of the rules prohibiting recycling when they apply for retirement and when they ask to make a one-off additional voluntary contribution to BRASS or AVC Extra.
More information can be found by searching for 'pension scheme recycling' or at on the Gov.uk website
AVCs are a tax-efficient way for Fund members to save a bit more towards their retirement. They are paid on top of your normal Fund contributions.They are paid on top of normal contributions and you choose where they are invested, from a range of funds selected by the Trustee.
The Annual Allowance (AA) is a limit on the amount of your pension savings that can benefit from tax relief in any given tax year. If you exceed this limit, you will be charged tax on your pension savings that are over the AA.
The most that you can save tax-free towards all your pension arrangements is the lower of 100% of your earnings over that period and the AA.
For most people, the AA is currently £40,000 (although this could change in the future), however, it will be lower if your ‘adjusted income’ is over £150,000. This reduced allowance is known as the ‘Tapered Annual Allowance’.
For this purpose, your ’adjusted income’ is your taxable income plus your level of pension savings for AA purposes (called your ‘Pension Input Amount’).
You can learn more about pension tax allowances at www.gov.uk/tax-on-your-private-pension
You could be affected by this tax limit if you take money from your Additional Voluntary Contributions (AVCs) or any other defined contribution pensions you may have, while you're still paying in.
You can find out more in our Tax Limits guide, which you'll find in the my pension section when you log into your MyFund account.
You can also learn more about pension tax allowances at www.gov.uk/tax-on-your-private-pension
The LTA is the maximum amount you can save into all your pensions throughout your working life.
If you exceed the LTA - currently £1,073,100 - you may be liable for an excess tax charge.
In line with the Budget announced in March 2021, the LTA is expected to remain at £1,073,100 until April 2026.
You can learn more about pension tax allowances at www.gov.uk/tax-on-your-private-pension
In general, if the value of all your pension savings and benefits (from every scheme you are a member of) at the time you take your benefits exceeds the Lifetime Allowance for that tax year, then the value of your savings and benefits above the Lifetime Allowance will be subject to additional tax charges.
You can learn more about pension tax allowance at www.gov.uk/tax-on-your-private-pension
No, once you leave your employment you must stop contributing to the Fund.
The benefits you’ve earned while you have been a member of the Fund will be ‘preserved’ until you reach your Normal Retirement Age (this is age 55 for preserved members of the 1970 Section, and 65 for preserved members of the 2007 Section and CARE members).
Your benefits will increase in line with inflation each year so they keep their value.
Yes, and we would really encourage you to do so!
Keeping your nominations up to date is just as important as when you were an active member so the Management Committee knows who you'd like any death benefits paid to if you die before claiming your pension (or within 5 years of taking it). You can nominate online quickly and easily by logging into your myFund account.
If you are unable to nominate online, you can download a form from the Forms section.
You may be able to apply to take your pension benefits early, from age 55 for most members or 50 for some members of the 1970 Section. However they will be reduced depending on how long you retire before your Normal Retirement Age.
Yes, you are able to transfer your preserved benefits to the scheme of your new employer or to a personal pension arrangement. However please think very carefully before you transfer your benefits out of the Fund.
You should carefully consider your long-term financial position and compare the benefits of your BTP pension with those offered by alternative pension arrangements.
If you want to transfer your pension, we strongly recommend you get independent financial advice. If you are considering transferring your BTP benefits to a defined contribution arrangement, depending on the size of your transfer value, getting financial advice may be a legal requirement.
You would need to contact an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA) regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority for this. You can find IFAs in your local area at Unbiased.co.uk.
Important: Some scams are singling out pension scheme members and claiming that they can help cash in your pension early. Please learn how to avoid becoming a victim of scams.
You can only apply for ill health retirement benefits if you leave service due to ill health. If you subsequently become ill having left service, you are not able to apply for an ill health pension.
You can apply to take your benefits early (see 'Can I take my pension benefits early?' question ).
Your pension will paid, in arrears, every four weeks.
You can keep track of your payment dates using the pension payment calendar.
Yes, your pension is taxable like any other income and is taxed using the Pay As You Earn system. However, if your annual pension, plus any other income you may have, is less than your personal allowance, you will not pay any tax.
Tax is taken from your pension payment before you receive it, based on the tax code supplied to Railpen by the Tax Office. Any enquiries about your tax code should be made directly to your appropriate Tax Office.
This is probably because we have been instructed by HMRC to change your tax code. For further information and questions about your income tax assessment, please contact HMRC by calling: 0300 200 3300 or write to: Pay As You Earn and Self Assessment, HM Revenue and Customs, BX9 1AS, United Kingdom
See gov.uk/check-income-tax-current-year for more details.
After the end of the tax year in April, Railpen will send you a P60 Form. The P60 confirms your final tax code for the year and gives details for the tax year that has just ended. This includes:
Your P60 is important. You need to keep it for at least two years in case you’re asked to complete a tax return (it may help you with other forms too).
Alternatively, you can let us know of a change of address, by emailing the Helpline at email@example.com or calling 0800 012 1117. When contacting Railpen, please have your pension reference number to hand.
Railpen processes pension payrolls approximately two weeks before the payment date. Therefore if you change your bank or building society account, you should let Railpen have the details of your new account at least two weeks before your pension is due to be paid.
If you are unable to give two weeks' notice then please make sure you keep your old bank account open to avoid any delay in your pension reaching you.
We all want to make sure our loved ones are looked after. When you die your eligible spouse or civil partner will be paid half of your normal pension.
Your normal pension is the basic pension on the day you took payment of your benefits. This will be increased by any pension increases which have been made since that time.
Your normal pension does not include any voluntary reduction of your pension which you chose at the time you retired, such as exchanging pension for extra cash or taking the level pension option.
The Fund has a two-stage Internal Disputes Resolution Procedure for considering complaints and disagreements.
If you have a complaint, you should first write to: Head of Rail Administration, Railpen, PO Box 300, Darlington, DL3 6YJ.
Your complaint will be carefully considered and you will receive a reply within two months.
If you are not satisfied with the reply, you can ask for your complaint to be referred to the Management Committee. You must do this within six months of receiving the reply. The Management Committee will consider your complaint and contact you within two months.
You can find out more about making a complaint and what to do if you're not satisfied with our response through MoneyHelper. It brings together the support and services of three government-backed financial guidance providers: Money Advice Service, The Pensions Advisory Service and Pension Wise.

I’m a bit of a latecomer to Quilter, and indeed, English Art Song in general. But last year, when Allan’s was closing down, I saw a book of Quilter art songs on special, and thought I’d take a look inside. After all, one shouldn’t shun a whole genre without trying it. Then I opened the book, and made a marvellous discovery – Art Song in English is basically really gorgeous poems set to music!
(yes, OK, I’m slow, but it hadn’t occurred to me. I’ve only ever sung art-song in other languages, and hadn’t really registered that the lyrics were written by Real Poets, as opposed to lyricists…)
Anyway, having made this delicious connection, the first thing I did was to take the book along to my singing teacher and basically say “Where do I start?” And she sang me this.
Isn’t it gorgeous? The poem is by Percy Shelley, another poet who was almost certainly stolen by the fairies, or possibly the naiads, as he drowned in a boating accident at a young age. I love the excitement of the music (and Baker’s amazing dexterity in singing this), but to me, it’s the words which are truly transcendent. I would love to sing this at a wedding.
Here’s a tenor version which I think is even more gorgeous than Baker’s, though I haven’t been able to find out who the singer is. Edited to add: Apparently, it’s John Mark Ainsley, an English tenor. Also apparently, I can’t read, because it’s right there on the cover of the recording… I love the feeling and vigour in his performance, and the way you can hear every syllable.
The fountains mingle with the river
And the rivers with the ocean,
The winds of heaven mix for ever
With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single,
All things by a law divine
In one another’s being mingle –
Why not I with thine?
See the mountains kiss high heaven
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister-flower would be forgiven
If it disdain’d its brother:
And the sunlight clasps the earth,
And the moonbeams kiss the sea –
What are all these kissings worth,
If thou kiss not me?

Chattanooga, Tenn. (AP) -- A federal prosecutor has identified former Tennessee Economic and Community Development Commissioner Bill Baxter as an "unindicted co-conspirator" in State Senator Jerry Cooper's land fraud case.
The judge at the Morrison Democrat's trial agreed in a ruling.
Baxter served as the state's top business recruiter in the administration of former Republican Governor Don Sundquist and more recently was a Tennessee Valley Authority board member.
He could not be reached for comment.
Cooper has pleaded not guilty to charges of bank fraud, mail fraud and conspiracy.
Baxter was not subpoenaed to testify at Cooper's trial.
Records show Baxter sent to Cooper's attorney an April 27th letter saying he and his family were scheduled to be out of the country on a trip the first two weeks of June.
Assistant US Attorney Gary Humble told the judge that he could consider Baxter to be an unindicted co-conspirator.
With jurors outside the courtroom, the judge agreed to allow testimony about Baxter's role in the state approving a grant for a rail spur and an equipment loan linked to the 1999 sale of Cooper's lumber mill in Warren County.

It looks like Bobby Jindal won the race to be the first Republican to denounce Mitt Romney’s gifts comments. The Louisiana governor said on Wednesday at the Republican Governors Association that Romney was “absolutely wrong” in saying that President Obama won reelection because of large “gifts” given to women and minorities. “I don’t think that represents where we are as a party and where we’re going to be as a party,” Jindal said. One of the Republican favorites for 2016, Jindal said Romney had lost the election because he had not laid out a “vision” for the presidency. Your move, Mitt?

Most likely of my research, i must eat my terms about perhaps maybe not automating education loan re payments with this one.
It is completely worth every penny. Of program, it’s your responsibility, but i believe the figures add up right right here.
Will be the figures adequate to allow you to simply take the discount?
Reader Interactions. I like reading your documents.
You can find advice that is really good. As I’m working my option to repay a 300,000 dept. I wish to fairly share your posts with my after; who in my opinion may benefit too. It might be actually helpful if you’re able to include some share that is social to your articles. More

Acland, Lady Christian Henrietta Caroline, generally called Lady Harriet 1750-1815, was the third surviving daughter of Stephen, first earl of Ilchester, and was born on 3 Jan. 1749-50. In Nov. 1770 she was married, at Redlynch Park, Somersetshire, to John Dyke Acland [see Acland, John Dyke]. When her husband was ordered to attend his regiment to Canada in 1776, he was accompanied by Lady Harriet Acland, and the narrative of her sufferings during the campaign, which has been often printed in both England and America, forms one of the brightest episodes in the war with the American people. He was taken ill in Canada, and she nursed him. On his partial recovery his services were required at the attack of Ticonderoga; but at the express injunction of her husband she remained behind. During the conflict he received a dangerous wound, and his heroic wife hastened to join him, and to bestow upon the sufferer the most devoted care and attention. Her husband commanded the British grenadiers, and his corps was often at the most advanced post of the army. On one of these occasions the tent in which they were sleeping caught fire, and both of them had a narrow escape of their lives. A few weeks afterwards the troops under the command of General Burgoyne were defeated in the second battle of Saratoga (7 Oct. 1777), when Major Acland was badly wounded in both legs and taken prisoner. With the protection of a letter from Burgoyne to General Gates, and in the company of an artillery chaplain and two servants, she proceeded in an open boat up the Hudson River to the enemy. When she arrived at the outposts of the American army, the sentinel threatened to fire into the boat if its occupants stirred, and for eight dark and cold hours, according to one account, though this is denied in the American papers, she remained waiting for the break of daylight, and for permission to join her husband. On her return to England, says the Gentleman's Magazine, her portrait, as she stood in the boat with a white handkerchief in her hand as a flag of truce, was exhibited at the Royal Academy and engraved. Some copies of the print are still in the possession of the Acland family. The story that her husband died in a duel, that she became temporarily insane, and afterwards remarried, has no foundation in fact. She was left a widow in 1778 with two surviving children, her son, John, succeeding to the baronetcy, and her daughter, Elizabeth Kitty, marrying Lord Porchester, afterwards second earl of Carnarvon. By this marriage the Acland property near Dulverton and Taunton ultimately passed to the Carnarvon family. Lady Harriet Acland died at Tetton, near Taunton, on 21 July 1815. Her remains were interred at Broad Clyst on 28 July. Her portrait, painted by Sir Joshua Reynolds in 1771-72, and the property of the present head of the Acland family, was engraved by S. W. Reynolds. The painting was exhibited at Burlington House, at the Winter Exhibition, 1882, and the face was that of a woman of great determination of character. Several years before, whilst a little girl, aged seven, she had been painted by the same artist standing at her mother's knee.

E-sports is still a burgeoning market as far as growth and profitability is concerned, but one thing they don’t seem to have to worry about much is viewer engagement. According to a new market research report from Newzoo, 76% of sporting fans say that e-sports eats into their viewing habits of other sports such as football, hockey, baseball and basketball.
GamesIndustry.biz did a quick breakdown of the numbers, revealing that 22% of millennials between 21 and 35 years of age watch e-sports competitions, making it about on par in popularity to baseball and hockey.
According to Pieter van de Heuvel, the head of the e-sports at Newzoo, stated that…
“The huge interest in eSports from sports celebrities, clubs, media companies, and brands alike illustrate how games are leading the media and entertainment business towards a new future that has more in common with games than not.”
This follows a series of other reports indicating that e-sports is growing quite steadily, and research organizations like NewZoo and SuperData are pegging the industry to be worth billions a few years from now. More specifically, Technavio reported that by 2020 e-sports would be worth $46.61 billion.
This all comes amid big corporate sponsors and organizations attempting to step in and control the market. Money-movers behind the NFL, MLB and NBA have recently become involved with e-sports, buying up some of the bigger and more popular teams. In the meantime, the ESL has begun cracking down on what they see as unsavory practices following a string of drug and gambling scandals happening within e-sports.
Essentially, as more people begin to show interest in e-sports and as the market grows, it appears as if the corporate powers that be want to dip their thumbs in the pie so that they can control the expanding interests of the market and shape the future of competitive gaming. You can check out the full report on more millennials getting into e-sports while forfeiting their viewing time of traditional sports by checking out the Newzoo website.

On the one hand, workers’ compensation insurance seems pretty basic: If you get hurt on the job, you can get money for medical bills and missed income. On the other hand, it’s not so easy: What qualifies as “hurt”? What constitutes “on the job” — what if you’re on the road for work or you work from home? And how much missed income can you get and for how long?
You can have a lot of questions about workers’ comp claims, so here are ten of the most common, and where to find the answers:
1. Workers’ Comp: What Injuries Are Covered?
This is everyone’s biggest question, and, unfortunately, there’s no set list of covered injuries. But there are some general criteria.
2. How Long Do I Have to Be Employed to Get Workers’ Comp?
What happens if you get hurt your first day on the job? Fortunately, your employer should’ve been paying into a state workers’ comp insurance plan. But what if it’s their first day, too?
3. Does Workers’ Comp Cover Volunteers?
And if you’re not even an employee, you’re just trying to help out? Well, as they say, no good deed goes unpunished. So, you’re probably out of luck and will need to rely on private insurance.
4. Can Undocumented Immigrants Get Workers’ Comp?
Payroll taxes fund workers’ compensation coverage, and if workers, illegal or not, are paying into the system, shouldn’t they also be eligible to receive benefits? It may actually depend on the state.
5. Can I Get Workers’ Comp for a Business Trip Injury?
You’re not in the office, but you’re on the clock. Does that mean you’re covered?
6. Can I Get Workers’ Comp If I Work From Home?
And what happens if you never go into the office at all? You may work remotely even in another state than where your employer is headquartered. Does that matter?
7. Does Workers’ Comp Cover Mental Health?
Not all injuries are physical, and some mental and emotional issues can prevent you from working just as much, if not more.
8. If I Get Into a Fight at Work, Can I Still Get Workers’ Comp?
Let’s just say you weren’t exactly “working” when you suffered a work-related injury. Whether you’re covered may depend on where the fight occurred and whether you threw the first punch.
9. Can You Get Workers’ Comp If You Fail a Drug Test?
There’s a common conception that you’ll face drug tests after a work injury, and if you fail, you get nothing. Is that true or a common misconception?
10. What Are the First Steps in a Workers’ Compensation Claim?
You’ve been injured. You think it’s work related. What do you do next? One step might be contacting an experienced workers’ comp attorney.

Manchester Cares is a brand new community network of young professionals and older neighbours hanging out and helping one another. Two in five older people say the TV is their main form of company and while people over 75 are the loneliest age group in the UK, the second and third loneliest are people between 21 and 25 and 25 and 35.
The city is growing and changing and that can leave some people feeling anonymous, isolated and left behind. For older neighbours in particular, many of whom have spent a lifetime in one local area, the rush and pace of the city can often now feel too much.
This year they will begin much-needed work by:
• Delivering blankets and warm clothes to those feeling the cold
• Helping people to access healthcare and connecting them to organisations who can provide benefits and energy saving advice
• Letting people know about free events in their area, including their own free Social Clubs
• Matching up those who struggle to get out and about with a younger neighbour who could visit them once a week through a Love Your Neighbour project
• Supporting people whose circumstances are particularly difficult with small financial grants
If you’d like to become a partner or if you know any older neighbours who may benefit, contact Kathryn on 0161 207 0800. For more information, visit: https://manchestercares.org.uk/home

I have a question William
by Jeffrey H
I am getting relief from the anal peripheral prostate message you teach, Thank God!!! You said not to do Kegel exercises but when performing the regular prostate massage that is how we get the aneros device to work. Do you recommend not doing the prostate massage and just doing the anal peripheral prostate massage since my problem i think is tight anal muscles? I am doing both massages right now and I don't know if doing the kegels with the aneros is defeating my anal peripheral prostate massage. Please help!, Your website is a god send for me, Please write me back as soon as you are able, Jeff, --------------@---------.com,Thanks again, I practice as much from your site as possible, I have wasted thousands of dollars with all negative tests with urologists that did nothing to help me. This website has me on the right track and able to function. I'm 32 and have erection problems, I am starting to get stronger erections now. I notice when I have my aneros device in it doesn't move that much so maybe that is more indication of tight anal muscles also, Thanks William, please write me back, you're my only hope I have found so far!
Hi Jeff! I'm glad the anal technique is helping you. That's an area so overlooked by most people and for many of us there is so much hidden tension in the anal muscles that it is almost unbelievable! The anal peripheral prostate massage is a God send to the gland when that is the case. It really gets the muscles loosened up and the blood flowing. Then, everything down there responds accordingly.
I can't and don't prescribe for anyone. But, I will give you some information on the 2 massages. Doing the kegels will conflict with loosening the anal muscles. It involves constant squeezing and tightening of the muscles with no stretching and loosening of them. Unless the anal stretching technique is used with them they can even be a bad idea for women.
Also, learn which of the techniques is best for you. A man doesn't need all of them all the time. And sometimes one works more effectively than another. And then it changes. And then it can change again. And again... It's easy to figure out though, just by listening to how your own body responds to things. After a while you get really in tune with your own system and you know just what technique you need when. In the beginning it's trial and error for everyone.
Anal tension was a HUGE problem for me personally. That is how I developed the anal technique. I only found out last year that this is a technique commonly used by sexology body workers for both male and female sexual problems. And very often used on women as well because of severe anal tension.
A professional session runs about $150. I've had a number of them. Unfortunately this kind of massage is not legal in every state. Prostitution laws. Even though it is physical therapy. If you can reach down there you can do your own sessions just as effectively. I do. And I find my own work on myself equally as effective as professional therapy.
What I personally do is use the Aneros for prostate massage. The Aneros does not have a lot of movement. It is subtle. But, I don't squeeze my anal muscles. I gently do a prostate massage as described in http:www.prostate-massage-and-health.com/prostate-massage.html as the drumstick method. The big advantage to using the Aneros over the drumstick is that it doesn't go in too far. It lands right on the prostate gland. It makes the process much easier. It doesn't take much pressure to be very effective. And clean up is simple.
Once the anal muscles have loosened up and are free of tension, kegels are fine to do. But, if someone has tight muscles there now, it is usually stress related and may tend to remain tight unless he/she consciously keeps them loose. So I personally avoid kegels all together.
As far as erection problems go, you're not alone. It is usually assumed that young men in their early 30s have no sexual malfunctions. Nothing could be further from the truth. For most men this is the time when serious sexual malfunction is just beginning. We should be better educated in this area. But, everyone loves sex. And sex sells. So most men overindulge unknowingly. This is why so many men begin to crash and burn at this early age. Just like ice cream, if that is all you have each day you'll soon become quite ill.
Erectile problems are often the first sign of a weakening sexual system. The massage techniques supply more blood to the area so the system strengthens. But moderation and a good diet are also necessary for those who still want to be functioning healthfully in their 60s, 70s, and 80s. Those who continue to overindulge and live unhealthfully are often impotent in their 40s and suffer every sexual problem imaginable. In fact it is reported that 40% of men in their 40s have erectile problems and/or dysfunction!
The biggest problem is our lack of sexual education as young men. That is something we seem to get when our parts are failing. And it is something this website is dedicated to: Helping men stay healthy and return to good health through sane natural health practices.
I hope this information was helpful to you! And I wish you continued success with your prostate massage (and anal massage) practices.

Hollywood (Fla.) Employees Retirement Fund will begin a search for a custodian within the next few months, said Lisa Castronovo, pension coordinator.
The $275 million pension fund’s seven-year contract with current custodian Wells Fargo was set to expire on Dec. 31, and city ordinance requires the services be put up for bid, Ms. Castronovo said.
Wells Fargo’s contract has been extended until March 31; the firm is invited to rebid. Ms. Castronovo said the city commission issues the RFP and is drafting the document.
When it is posted, the RFP will be on BidSync. Registration will be required.

There was a time when dentures and bridges were the only options available to replace missing teeth. Anyone who has worn cosmetic dentures or a bridge will be aware of the pluses and minuses attached. In comparison to dental implants (also known as teeth implants) both are relatively limited. Dental implants do not slip and are fixed. Unquestionably, they are currently the closest thing to natural teeth with regards to strength, durability, comfort and care as well as aesthetically. Indeed, they are quite literally teeth implants!
Why Dental Implants? Is It A Must?
While no dentist would suggest you MUST have dental implants there are significant advantages in doing so. For example: If you have two or three back teeth missing on one side, the functionality of teeth implants would be far superior to partial dentures. Known as flippers, without a tooth to attach a bridge, the functionality of partial dentures is more aesthetic than functional.
Teeth implants can be used to replace all the teeth OR to provide a solid anchor for a bridge – Which increases functionality and comfort substantially. If you have just one tooth missing and opt for a bridge; the teeth either side of the missing tooth need to be ground down. With teeth implants they do not: Which means your healthy teeth remain intact and untouched: Another good reason to opt for dental implants.
Are Implants An Option For You?
A qualified dental surgeon is the best person to offer advice on whether you are a suitable candidate for dental implants: Not everyone is suitable which ultimately means the chance of this treatment being successful is not promising. However, even if you are suitable and you are keen to take advantage of the benefits, there are other factors to consider: And cost is a major factor for most. Even so, dental implants are a long term investment and there are payment plans available to help finance that investment. The best thing to do first is get an estimate and know your options.
Speak To A Specialist
The Perfect Smile Spa is one of the leading Cosmetic Dentistry clinics and spas in the London and Essex region. If your dentist has recommended a bridge – particularly if you only have one missing tooth – then it is in your interest to investigate the alternatives. Dental Implants could well be the most advantageous option in the long term. The Perfect Smile Spa has an in-house Implant Specialist. Dr Pabari is highly trained and qualified in oral surgery as well as sedation. Implants are being used more and more within Cosmetic Dentistry because they look natural and are extremely durable.
The Perfect Smile Spa is located in the main high street, Hornchurch Essex. If you live in the London – Essex region using a local dental practice has its advantages. However, benefiting from the advice of a specialist provides even more. Indeed, at the Perfect Smile Spa you have everything – Which is what makes this team one of the leading Cosmetic Dentistry clinics and spas in the London and Essex region.

Hi guys, I suspect you know why I’ve called you in here for this meeting. Adam, Larry, uhm… hat guy… you know that costs have been rising and, what with piracy and everything we just don’t get the receipts we used to.
Obviously that means we have to find some savings and, after looking through the options the management have come up with a plan to help save the band and allow us to continue delivering on our mission statement of creating slightly banal rock music along with big, over the top live concerts.
I’m really sorry to be the messenger in this, but I have to inform you that your roles are being replaced by a team of six musicians from Hyderabad in India. Obviously this pains me greatly, and eventually I will go as well as I’m staying as a transitional figurehead until somebody just as annoying can be found and trained up.
You’ll be pleased to note that I’ve been able to negotiate a generous three month notice period for you all, including a generous pay off equivalent to an additional six months of pay if you work out your notice period to management’s satisfaction. I hope this is agreeable to you. There will also be assistance in you finding a new job through our redeployment unit who will be offering training and help with tidying up your CV.
What’s that Larry? What will you be doing during the notice period?
Well, mostly you’ll be training up your replacements who are arriving later today. Hat guy, you’ve got Ishaan and Krishna, Larry you’ll be working alongside Arjun and Diya, and Adam, you’ve got Om. You were supposed to have two guys with you but there was a problem with visas or something.
Hat guy, you have a question? OK, fine, “The Edge” it is… I do wish you’d let that go. What’s wrong with Dave eh? Sure sure, we’re digressing… anyway, no, management don’t believe quality will suffer.
I’m obviously unhappy this has had to happen, but I’m sure you’ll all find success in your new jobs out there. I believe most people who suffer redundancy find themselves better off than before! One guy I knew was just a cleaner, got made redundant, got trained as an electrician and makes four times what he did. Amazing eh?
No Adam, I don’t think after this has happened I’ll suddenly find myself in a nice managerial role. I’m as gutted by all this as you all are, I can assure you.
Chaps, I know our new album is part way through, but I’m sure you’ll all be professional about this and make sure that you transfer all your knowledge and current working situation to our new colleagues. Good luck, Larry, Adam and Dave, and let’s stay friends. Right… right?

Today’s injury report is brought to you by, well, me. Because unfortunately, I’m on it.
The Short Version: I’ve injured my back. I can’t run. And I don’t know when I’ll be able to start running again.
The Medical Version: After months of ignoring lower back & hip pain and numbness in my right foot, I finally saw a sports medicine doctor two weeks ago. An MRI confirmed that I have something called a spondylolisthesis, a common spinal disorder in which a vertebra slips forward onto the bone below it. This image isn’t my back, but it’s probably similar to what my back looks like right now.
See where the vertebra is slipping forward? You can actually feel the spot on my back where the vertebrae are out of place. My “spondy” is a grade 2, which means that the slippage is between 25-50% and is not considered severe at this point. However, the MRI also revealed that I have a herniated disc:
Both spondylolisthesis and a herniated lumbar disc can cause significant back pain, hip & leg pain, and numbness and tingling in the leg & foot. Both issues can compress the sciatic nerve and/or irritate the piriformis. So I’ve got a double whammy going on here.
I’m starting off with a conservative treatment plan, which means physical therapy and medication. I’m restricted from activities that compress my spine – like running. I also need to avoid movements that require me to twist or arch my spine, which certainly puts a damper on my burgeoning yoga practice. I’m allowed to do yoga, but some poses are a no-no. This side crow, for example, hurt. A LOT.
Some people have asked me if I injured myself by running the Rock’n’Roll Savannah half marathon. The answer is that while it probably didn’t help, I was in pain long before the race. My right hip and foot have been aching and going numb for 2-3 months now. The pain just finally got bad enough for me to make myself see a doctor. And as far as back pain – I’ve had that off & on for 20 years now, ever since I bent down to get a piece of cheese from the refrigerator. (I wish it was from something cool like hang gliding, but nope. It was cheese.) This latest round of back pain started in the summer, and I’d notice it at strange times – like when I stepped off a treadmill or sneezed.
So for the time being, Mommy Runs It won’t be running anywhere. Instead I’ll be walking, stretching, and doing a lot of PT homework. I’m hopeful that with rest and the proper care, I can get the pain and inflammation under control without escalating to more invasive measures (ugh).
Stay tuned, friends. I’ll be back. (Sorry. I couldn’t stop myself.)

Introduction: Southwest Nachos
My family and I are all sports fans, and generally the weather doesn't hold out for grilling in mid-winter. Fortunately, we have plenty of recipes for when the temperature has been below 0º for days. This recipe was inspired by one of my family's favorite sports bar snacks.
This dish can easily be doubled/tripled to feed a crowd and most of the toppings can be made in advance (good news if you're watching the game and are also the chef). Let's get started!
Step 1: Ingredients
For this dish you will need: 1 pound of chorizo sausage, 1 onion, a family size bag of tortilla chips (about 20 oz.) 2 cups (8 oz.) shredded Colby Jack cheese, about 1 cup (or 10 oz,) of fresh pico de gallo salsa, 8 oz. sour cream, a small bunch of cilantro, and 1 avocado.
Step 2: Prep the Chorizo
First, pre-heat the oven to 450º F. Next, heat a little oil in a non-stick pan. When hot, add the chorizo (make sure it's out of its casings) and break it up with a spatula. Finely dice the onion and add to the meat.
I had a little trouble telling when the meat was done because it does not change colors while it cooks. It will be done for sure when the onion is very soft.
Step 3: Assembly
Line 2 large baking sheets with aluminum foil (make sure the sheets have an edge). Divide the tortilla chips among the pans and top with the chorizo mixture and the shredded cheese. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cheese is melty.
Step 4: Finishing Touches
While the nachos bake, chop the cilantro and avocado. When the nachos are done, top with the sour cream, pico de gallo, and cilantro (I kept the avocado on the side for those who wanted it).
Pro tip: Put the sour cream in a pastry bag. It looks much nicer than globs and helps keep it spread out.
This dish serves about 6 hearty eaters for a main course. If you want the dish to be more filling, add a runny fried egg or two for each person. Also, feel free to change the toppings to your tastes. Don't like chorizo? Use taco meat, shredded pork, or seasoned tofu. Want more spice? Add extra jalapeños or a hot sauce. The sky's the limit! Hope you enjoy!
We have a be nice policy.
Please be positive and constructive.
