How creative practice can influence self-love, and how self-love can, in turn, benefit the creative process.
The Epidemic of Low Self-Esteem in Women
Low self-esteem seems to be an epidemic, which, like any other virus, feeds off its host, resulting in consequences beyond imaginable. A lack of self-love permeates into every inch of a person’s life. It has been known to correlate with poor work performance, strained relationships with friends and family, and the destruction of passions and dreams.
A poignant study on self-esteem, funded by The Dove Self-Esteem Project, found that 85% of women and 79% of girls have opted out of an activity they normally love because they were insecure about the way they looked. Similarly, 7 out of 10 girls admitted to letting their opinions go unheard due to low self-esteem.
If these numbers weren’t scary enough, the recent boom in social media presence has only worsened these statistics. An evaluation done by the American Psychological Association’s Journal of Abnormal Psychology showed a 52% increase in depressive thoughts among individuals aged 12-17 and a 63% increase among 18-25-year-olds. These stark increases correlate with the burgeoning presence of social media, which has gone from an optional hobby to an obligatory activity. Comparison and false representation are at an all-time high, causing low self-esteem to rise by margins unlike any other decade.
With these facts, there is no denying that self-love is needed amongst young girls and women. And luckily, I am here to offer a course of action: creativity.
How Creativity Can Help Self-Love
Creativity is all about uniqueness. It is about recognizing the beauty in originality–the beauty in flaws. Self-love should be treated the same way. If each person saw themselves as a work of art, they would be able to recognize that their “flaws” are anything but. Think of every mark on your being as a flick of a paintbrush for emphasis or a dash of color to attract the eye. Soon, you will see the beauty in your specialness. The daunting effects of comparison would also be mitigated. As it would be silly to compare a Picasso to a Van Gough, it would be silly to compare yourself to another. Art is about perception. So choose to see yourself as beautiful.
This theory on the relationship between creativity and self-love has been published in The Journal of Creative Behavior. Using a sample of adolescents, they found that self-esteem could account for 30.7% of the variance in musical creativity, 21.3% of story writing creativity, and 10.1% of creativity in drawing, suggesting a relationship of some sorts.
So how can we apply this to our everyday lives?
Write in a journal. Paint how you feel. Learn to view every inch of yourself and the world as a unique, individual work of art. For more ideas on self-care, journaling, and artistic avenues towards wellness, check out the numerous blog posts at Live Your Dream Blog. I promise, it will be worth it.
How Self-Love Can Help Creativity
It should be noted that this is not a one-way relationship. Not only can creativity allow you to improve your self-esteem, but self-love can help you unleash your inner creativity. All the statistics on how self-hatred can hurt performance were not for nothing, they show the negative effects that low self-esteem can have on creativity.
For years, I found myself acting apprehensively when showing off my creations, feeling that they were unworthy of viewing. However, once I took that daunting step to share my ideas and present my creations, I found that my self-esteem skyrocketed and so did the quality of my work. Confidence fuels success, and I promise, if you take the step towards appreciating yourself and your inherent uniqueness, you too can unleash your full potential.
Do not be afraid to pick up that paint-brush or play that melody or write down that story that enters your dreams each night. We as women are beautiful, creative, and have the unlimited potential for greatness. Do not let anyone tell you otherwise Do not let anyone tell you otherwise.

The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has recommended Nigerians to think about utilizing bicycles as a substitute mode of transportation in order to protect themselves from the detrimental economic impact of the increase in fuel costs.
Following President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s decision to halt gasoline subsidy payments, petrol prices increased by more than 300% last week, rising from 185 to more than 500 in all areas of the country.
On May 29, 2023, during his inauguration address, the President stated that the federal government’s declining finances made it unsustainable for it to continue funding subsidies.
Concerns about how the policy may affect food prices, transportation costs, and the purchasing power of the Nigerian people have been raised in light of this development.
Adekanye stated that it is now more prudent for the general people to utilize bicycles for daily transportation during the celebration of the 2023 World Bicycle Day in Ibadan on Saturday, June 3, 2023.
When describing the advantages, the FRSC representative added that as more Nigerians use bicycles for transportation, carbon emissions from vehicles into the atmosphere will also be significantly decreased.
“Use of bicycle is economically cheap because the cost of a bicycle is not as expensive as using a car or motorcycle,” he said.
Stressing the health benefits, the sector commander noted that cycling will not only improve physical strength but also help to reduce body fat “and keep the heart healthy.”
“Cycling may help prevent and manage medical conditions; helps in improving mental health and reduces stress, among other benefits,” Adekanye added.
Similar to this, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) announced that steps will be conducted to create bicycle lanes throughout the Abuja city.
This was revealed by Muhammad Sule, the Director of Information and Communication for the FCT, in a statement from Olusade Adesola, the Permanent Secretary of the FCT.
Adesola was reported as saying that bicycle tracks were already included in the master plan of Abuja city and that “We need to develop them” in the statement released in Abuja on Sunday, June 4, 2023.
”This move will deepen the campaign to reduce the effect of climate change, emissions will be reduced if cycling is encouraged.”
The permanent secretary described cycling as an enjoyable and physically beneficial sport which should be encouraged and promoted.
”As a people, we need to imbibe the culture of riding bicycles, both as a sport, exercise and means of transportation.
”The benefits of cycling are enormous. It can improve heart health and strengthen the limbs,” he said.

Lunch Box Ideas
Forget the old brown bag with peanut butter sandwiches wrapped in waxed paper. LOL! When I was a child there were the old type of lunchboxes.
Men used to carry their lunches in these "industrial" lunch boxes.
But today we have a vast array of lunchboxes that will keep your food fresh, hot or cold, and easy to keep clean. Soft sided ones can be thrown in the washing machine.
Invest in some of these lunch box coolers and some small ice packs.
You can make your own ice packs with a sealable container or ice in a Ziplock bag. Just fill the container halfway with water and let it freeze over night or toss some ice cubes in the Ziplock bag.
Then look for reuseable containers and insulated containers that will help keep your food hot or cold.
If there is an available microwave then having something to keep your food hot in is not necessary and you can use ice packs for keeping foods cold. But if there is no microwave available then insulated thermoses are a good investment. If you purchase these containers then be sure to put your name and phone # (or teacher and room #) on it with a permanent Sharpie pen in case they start getting lost.
Of course, if your child or hubby just won't keep up with these containers and bring them home or you don't want to wash them, don't waste your money on them.
Use tin foil, waxed paper, plastic baggies, styrofoam cups and their lids, or the cheaper containers from Glad and Ziplock. You can even collect containers from your fast food purchases if you want cheap.
Styrofoam cups, boxes, plastic forks/knives/spoons, straws, etc. There are sugar and creamer packs, salt and pepper packs, mayo and ketchup packs that come with take out too.
(Now, I'm NOT espousing stealing these items without purchase, only re-use of items after purchase.) My Grandmother used to do this. So she washed and re-used butter tubs, jars, styrofoam cups, etc and kept a drawer full of ketchup packs and stuff. I don't usually do this myself. I only keep it if it's a particularly useful container. For instance I love a local restaurant's noodle bowls. When we get it for takeout, they put the soup in a nice large plastic container (they put all the fixings for the noodle bowl in a separate styrofoam box).
I keep those containers because they are perfect for keeping leftover soup. They are a quality container. If you keep up with them and really use them, then go for it! It can save you money! But if you are starting a collection and it gets out of hand, then you are hoarding and it's time to quit! Be practical. If it's useful then it's worth it. If it's clutter and in the way, then remember that it's trash and throw it away!
Japanese Bento Box
Take some inspiration from the Japanese Bento Boxes. A Bento Box is a really elegant, well planned, well packed boxed lunch.
The main thing to keep in mind is what makes a healthy lunch, whether this is for yourself at the office, your husband at the construction site, your children at school or a picnic for the whole family! When packing a lunch be sure to include enough protein, a fruit, a vegetable, a carbohydrate and a little sweet treat.
Here are some new ideas for lunch box lunches!

Other quick ideas for lunch boxes:
* Cottage cheese topped with canned fruit and topped with some seeds or nuts
* Bite sized raw vegetables with their favorite salad dressing for dipping
* Corn salad (canned corn mixed with chopped green pepper and onion, olive oil, lemon juice)
* Cheese cubes
* Apple slices with peanut butter
* Fresh fruit like grapes, tangerine, oranges, apples, banana. You can send them as a whole or cut them up and send on skewers or in a bowl with nuts and a dollop of vanilla yogurt.
* Mini pizzas. If they have a microwave available then cut a bagel or English muffin in half and put a little bottled pizza sauce on it. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese on top and add a topping if you like.
* Leftovers - Got some meatballs left over, make a meatball sandwich! Have some salmon patties left over, include one in a sandwich with some flavored mayo! Have a chicken leg leftover, send it for lunch. Or pull chicken off the bone and make a chicken sandwich. Got part of a steak leftover, slice it and put a little horseradish sauce on it for a lunch or sandwich.
* Loaded baked potato
* A slice of congealed salad
* Wrap Up Sandwiches - Using tortillas place some sour cream and salsa on it and top with turkey and provolone cheese and wrap it up. Or add some mayo with ham and cheese topped with a little lettuce. Maybe some slice ham and turkey with mayo and mustard and some alfalfa sprouts.
* Cheese and crackers or Peanut Butter and crackers
* Jello or pudding
* Apple sauce
* Freeze ice cream in a lunchbox container over night and it's just right for lunch.
* Dried fruit chips
* Hard boiled eggs
* Use a leftover hot dog bun or hamburger bun to make a "deli" sandwich
* String cheese
* Egg salad sandwiches
* BabyBel cheese
* Take any juice, tea, lemonade, Koolaid and fill a bottle halfway. Put in your freezer over night and place in lunch box. By lunch it should be thawed and cold.
* Milk or chocolate milk. Keep cold with a lunch box sized freezer pack.
* Bottled juice
* Hot chocolate
If your children are hard to please, it may help to dress the food up a little. Make it fun. Fun food may excite them. You can also make food fun by getting the kids involved in making their own lunch. Let them make the Ants On A Log or their own peanut butter sandwich. Or letting them make choices from a pre-determined list.
Use cookie cutters to make special sandwiches
You can take it one step further by including a little secret note to your loved one. An "I Love You" or "Have a great day!" or "Never give up!". Just a little something to perk up the day. Don't embarrass them. You might even make it a game. For instance, a Find-The-Note game. Or if you include a candy or a piece of chewing gum it means "I Love You". An inside message that only they would recognize.

Shaw has struggled with a number of injuries since Mourinho took charge of Manchester United last year, and has made just two appearances this term.
Both outings have come in the Carabao Cup, but the England international was only brought on with three minutes to go in last night’s 2-0 win at Swansea.
Mourinho has been publicly critical of the 23-year-old in the past, questioning his desire and attitude in training and performances on the pitch.
And ESPN pundit Nicol reckons the former Southampton defender should move on following Mourinho’s treatment of him.
“He needs to go, he needs to leave”Steve Nicol
“He needs to go, he needs to leave,” Nicol told ESPN.
“Listen, as soon as your manager is annihilated you in the press the way he got annihilated, you can forget about it.
“He’s a good player but he’s wasting his time at Manchester United.”
Shaw joined United from Southampton in the summer of 2014 for £30m but suffered a horror leg break in his second campaign at Old Trafford.
And Nicol’s colleague Craig Burley fears Mourinho has destroyed Shaw’s confidence.
“He’s a good player, he is a good player,” the ex-Chelsea midfielder said.
“Don’t forget he had a horrendous leg break, so it isn’t easy.
“You don’t really want to be thrown under the bus by your manager coming back from that, it doesn’t help.
“It looks as if he’s completely lost confidence. Going to such a big club, injuries, manager doesn’t like you.”

- When you register for a Course, you agree to pay the applicable Course fee and such other amounts as may be due by you arising from your participation in the Course.
You hereby consent to the receipt of an invoice, which shall be sent to you in electronic format, to the email address that you provided upon registering for a Course. All invoices shall reflect the methods of payment that will be accepted in payment of such invoice.
- In the event that bank charges and/or fees are levied on or added to a payment made by you to us from any country or jurisdiction, you shall be liable for all such bank charges and additional costs. Any VAT or other applicable taxes payable in addition to the Course fees will be identified in your invoice or information pack and such amounts are your sole responsibility unless the contrary is stated.
- When making payment to us, you must ensure that your invoice number (to which the payment relates) is reflected on your payment. We will not be held liable if we are unable to locate your payment, and as a result you are suspended from participation in a Course.
- Suspension for non-payment: If you fail to make payment for a Course by the due date for payment (as agreed during registration and recorded in your invoice), then we may remove you from the Course or suspend your participation in the Course in our sole discretion. If you are suspended from participation, you will not be permitted to access the Online Campus until such time as the outstanding payment has been made by you, and you will be given a period of time within which to rectify non-payment.

Once the course has started, no refunds will be processed for cancellation of course registration.
- Should you wish to drop out of a running course once the course has started, you are entitled to partial payment of 50%, assuming you have informed us within one month of course start. In this case, please contact your Success Manager to discuss the best course of action for you.

§5 Scope of Performance
1) Upon successful registration pursuant to § 3 of these Terms, EDU will provide Users with access to the Service. EDU will endeavour to keep the Service available during normal business hours in Malta (CET) and to carry out routine or necessary maintenance work on the Service outside of normal business hours to the greatest extent possible. However, breakdowns of the server or other disruptions of the Service can also occur in the course of regular business operations during normal business hours and there is no claim to permanent availability. EDU will not be responsible for disruptions in the Internet or due to other causes beyond its control (force majeure, strikes, legal requirements, or other reasons). EDU will endeavour to keep the content offered through the Service up-to-date.
(2) EDU reserves the right to temporarily deactivate and/or to delete user profiles if there is a suspicion of a breach of these Terms. In the event of a deletion, any usage fees paid in advance will be reimbursed to the User on a pro-rata basis. In as far as this serves to technically advance the Service or is necessary to prevent abuse, or if this is necessary due to legal requirements, EDU shall at all times have the right to extend, restrict, change or delete the Service, or to carry out improvements. This may change the appearance of the Service’s pages.
(3) EDU always ensures the highest possible degree of Service availability. Notwithstanding, it can be necessary to temporarily suspend availability for maintenance purposes. Where possible, we will notify you in advance in a timely manner of any maintenance schedules and shall design the latter in a fashion that causes the least possible impairment.
§6 Right of use
(1) Any use or exploitation of any content that is provided to the User by the Service and beyond these Terms is not permitted. The User is permitted to use the Service and content that is provided through the Service only for his own education. Protection notices, as well as copyright notices and other reservations of use, must be complied with at all times and retained unchanged in every reproduction. For avoidance of doubt, this also applies to any reproduction of the Free Content. Nor may the User sublicense the rights granted to the User to third parties. Notwithstanding the rights granted under these Terms, EDU, or the respective licensor of EDU as the case may be, reserves all rights to EDU and the content provided to the User by way of the Service.
(2) The User shall be solely responsible for the content he uploads, publishes or displays within the Service (“User content”). You understand and agree that EDU may, but is not obligated to, review the User content and may delete or remove (without notice) content which violates these Terms or which might be offensive, illegal, or that might violate the rights, harm or threaten the safety of users or others (see § 7 section 2).
§7 Prohibited types of use
The User shall be prohibited from manipulating the Service with software bugs or other files or programmes which are intended or suitable to interrupt the functioning of computers, software or hardware or of telecommunication equipment, or to destroy or limit the offers and/or the functioning of the Service.
§8 Personal examination results
The User undertakes to take the assignments given in the course of the Programme to monitor the User’s achievement of learning goals personally but in collaboration with the User’s team and without impermissible aids. Should the User violate this rule, EDU can block the User’s access to the Service and disqualify the User.
Proper conduct is regulated by the Student Handbook. The Student Handbook will be available upon the start of the course.
§9 Content generated by Users
(1) To the extent EDU makes it possible, the User can create and store his own content in the Service and exchange views with other Users about such content (e.g. in forums). The User is responsible for securing this content himself. EDU bears no liability for any loss of such content.
(2) The creation, use or storage of content that is defamatory, insulting, threatening, obscene, racist, degrading, and disrespectful of religion, against common decency (contra bonos mores) or in violation of fundamental democratic values or statutory provisions will be impermissible, as well any references to such content by way of links or other identification of websites. Copyrights, trademarks and other intellectual property rights of third parties must always be respected when creating content. Statements by users in forums, chat rooms, etc. reflect only their personal opinions and do not constitute official positions of EDU. Should EDU learn that the User is acting in violation of his obligations pursuant to these Terms, EDU will be entitled to block or delete the content and/or the User. In case of a suspected violation of this § 7, EDU may call upon the User to render a statement on this within a short period of time. Should the User not be able to prove the lawfulness of the content within this period of time or if the User does not present a declaration by the presumed injured party that he or she tolerates the content in question, EDU will block the content and has the right to delete it permanently.
§10 Rights of EDU to User Content
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the User hereby grants and assigns to EDU a royalty-free, paid-up non-exclusive, irrevocable, perpetual worldwide, transferable, sublicensable licence including a right to use any content (including photos, essays, drawings, etc.) that the User creates and stores in the Service for the purposes and the further development of the Service or any future forms of the Service and related offers. This includes, but is not limited to, the right to copy the content, to disseminate or demonstrate the content, to transfer the content via transmission lines wirelessly or by any other means and/or to make the content accessible to the public or distribute. Also included is the right to amend, alter, translate or otherwise to rewrite, reproduce, enhance, further develop the content and use such content in the amended form to the same extent as in the original form. This clause shall survive any termination of the user contract.
(1) In the event of a breach of material contractual duties (cardinal duties), EDU will be liable for reimbursement of expenses and damages (together: “Damages”). Cardinal duties are all duties, the breach of which endangers the achievement of a contract’s purpose, as well as all duties, the fulfilment of which enables the proper performance of the contract in the first place and on compliance with which the User may generally rely. However, if the breach of a cardinal duty was merely due to slight negligence and did not lead to injury to life, limb or health, claims for Damages will be limited in amount to the typical foreseeable damage.
(2) EDU will additionally bear liability in cases of intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, limb or health, or if it has assumed a guarantee, as well as in all other cases in which liability is mandatory by law, in each case in accordance with the statutory provisions.
(3) Otherwise, claims against EDU for Damages – regardless of their legal basis, in particular due to a breach of duties arising from these Terms by EDU, its legal representatives, employees or vicarious agents, under the Civil Code of Malta or due to tort – are excluded.
(4) To the extent EDU’s liability is limited or excluded under the above provisions, this will also apply for the personal liability of its legal representatives, employees and vicarious agents.
§12 Indemnification and warranty
(1) The User guarantees and warrants that he will comply with these Terms and that, when using the Service, he will comply with all applicable laws and other legal provisions valid in the Republic of Malta. The User hereby indemnifies EDU, its authorised representatives, managers, employees, affiliates and subcontractors from and against any and all claims, liability claims, damages, law suits or actionable claims (including reasonable lawyers’ costs) which result from a breach of the User’s representations, warranties or obligations set out in these Terms.
(2) The User is obliged to notify EDU immediately as soon as he or she realizes, or is in a position to realize, that a violation of such nature is about to occur.
(1) The User undertakes to maintain confidentiality with regard to any and all confidential information to which the User receives access in connection with the use of the Service. Confidential information is information that is either marked by EDU as protected or confidential or otherwise designated as such in writing, or information that, given the circumstances of its disclosure, the User can reasonably recognize as confidential evident. Confidential information comprises in particular, but not only, the Access Data (§ 2 of these Terms).
(2) The above obligation to maintain confidentiality will not apply if and to the extent the information in question demonstrably (i) is public knowledge or becomes public knowledge without the User having been at fault or violating this secrecy obligation, (ii) is or becomes state of the art, (iii) was already known to the User at the time it was conveyed, which must be proven by documents evidencing such knowledge, (iv) was or is later lawfully made known or accessible to the User by a third party, (v) must be disclosed on the basis of statutory provisions or enforceable official orders or judicial decisions. The User as the recipient of the information bears the burden of proving the existence of such an exceptional situation.
(1) Each party can terminate the contractual relationship, which is based on these Terms, at any time with thirty (30) days’ notice. Notice of termination must be given in text form (in writing, no signature required; e.g. e-mail)
(2) The right to terminate for cause is not affected by the above provisions. In particular, EDU reserves the right to terminate the user contract with immediate effect if the User substantially violates the provisions of these Terms.
§15 Data processing information
§16 Final provisions
(2) The English version of these Terms shall prevail over any translations into other languages. The language of contract is English.
(3) Should individual provisions of these Terms be or become invalid or unenforceable, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by a provision that comes as close as possible to the economic purpose of the invalid or unenforceable provision. In the case of an omission, that provision shall be deemed to be agreed upon which would have been agreed upon, according to the purpose and meaning of these Terms, had the parties considered the matter from the outset.
(4) We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. We shall inform you whenever such modifications are made. You are deemed to be in agreement with the modifications if you do not provide objection within (2) weeks of being notified thereof. Should you not agree to the changes, the contractual relationship will continue to the previously applicable conditions until it expires, or can be terminated by us. Should you wish to return to use of the Service, you will only be eligible for use under the conditions that are current at that time.
(5) We are entitled to transfer, with exempting effect, all of the duties and obligations covered by these T&C, entirely or partially, to a third party. You hereby already agree to such transfer of contract. You have the right to extraordinarily terminate your contract immediately should we avail ourselves of such a transfer.
(6) If you have no place of general jurisdiction in Malta or another EU member state, or if you have moved your place of permanent residence to a country outside the EU since these Terms came into effect, or if your domicile or the place you usually reside is unknown at the time at which the lawsuit is commenced, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all and any disputes arising from this contract shall be Valetta, Malta. The same applies if the contract partner is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a public fund.
(7) Any changes or amendments to these Terms must be made in written form. The requirement of the written form shall also apply to the cancellation or revocation of this requirement.
(8) You are not entitled to set counterclaims off against claims of EDU, unless such counterclaims have been established by a final and conclusive court ruling or are undisputed.

Hi there ~
I understand your concerns. There are many psychiatrists who specialize in substance use disorders who know how to get you off of the methadone
as this can also be an addictive medication. I believe that there is help out there, and you just need to call in and get yourself to a rehabilitation
center so as to get rid of the addiction. I also think that you might do well with consulting a local doctor first for symptomatic treatment of withdrawals once you stop using the methadone. I wish you the very best in recovery.
I hope this helps. Take care and have a lovely day!

SEC media days begin soon and at their conclusion the start of the 2011 Tennessee Volunteers football season will be 40 days from beginning against Montana. Derek Dooley is referring to this season as “year one” of his time at UT with last year due to all the chaos that was surrounding the program being “year zero.” Tennessee fans are a lot more optimistic going into this season this year than last as they should be. Many people are predicting an appearance in the SEC Championship for the Vols as the Eastern Division champions. Today we will be explaining the Vols improvement by breaking down the offense.
I expect neither team to be able to run the ball. Pittsburgh's banged up offensive line wont be able to block BJ Rajii and company and the famous steel curtain will shut down James Starks and the Packers rushing attack. The difference will be the Packers pass offense. Aaron Rodgers will spread the Steelers with Greg Jennings, Jordy Nelson, and Donald Driver for a lot of explosive plays.
Final Score: Green Bay 27 Pittsburgh 13
Ramon Foster was not ever expected to even make the Pittsburgh Steelers roster. The Ripley, Tennessee native, was an undrafted free agent after his career as a Vol came to an end. However, the kid who was a three sport athlete in high school and three year starter for the Tennessee Volunteers wasn't going to let the disappointment of going through all 7 rounds and not getting drafted stop him from following his dreams.
Foster made the Steelers roster during training camp and appeared in 14 games his rookie season in 2009. Foster even started 4 games in place of an injured Chris Kemoeatu. However, when the 2010 campaign started, Foster, once again found himself as a backup.
Much like the hard task fellow Vol, Packers, Chad Clifton faces blocking James Harrison, Foster will be charged with trying to contain the Packers feared defensive tackle, BJ Raji. Foster's play will be especially important since the status of Steelers regular starting center, Maurkice Pouncey is unknown.
Mike Lombardi, of The National Football Post and NFL Network, spoke with ESPN's Bill Simmons on the BS Report Monday, He expects the Packers to spread out the Steelers and be able to throw at will with their explosive receivers against a Steelers defense that is built to stop the run. If the Steelers are going to win the game he said, "the MVP will have to be James Harrison or LaMarr Woodley because of the pass rush they would have put on Aaron Rogers."
Thus, in his opinion and mine if Clifton the man entrusted with protecting, Aaron Rogers' blindside, is effective in neutralizing the Pittsburgh pass rush, the Packers will be able to win the Super Bowl.
Good news for the Packers is that Chad Clifton has is most famous for being able to come back injuries. In 2002 he suffered a vicious blindside hit from Warren Sapp on an interception return. Clifton’s pelvis was separated and he had to be hospitalized in a Tampa area hospital for a week. The next season Clifton returned to the starting lineup and enjoyed a pro bowl season this year. With two weeks to heal from the stinger he sustained in the NFC Championship game he is fully expected to be ready to go and be a critical part of a championship winning team just like he was for the ’98 Vols.
The Super Bowl hype machine goes into full gear today as ESPN as well as The Green Bay Packers and Pittsburgh Steelers descend upon the Dallas/North Texas area. The Packers will be arriving to their North Texas practice site on Wendesday giving the team off for travel on Monday and Media Day on Tuesday.
Well the Super Bowl hype has begun. This year features 4 former University of Tennessee offensive linemen. For the Green Bay Packers, Center Scott Wells, and Tackle Chad Clifton. For the Pittsburgh Steelers Ramon Foster and Chris Scott represent Tennessee on the offensive line. The Packers and Steelers have been riddled by injuries on the offensive line though out the season and into the playoffs. For the Packers Wells and Clifton have been longtime starters on the line and stalwarts in protection for Packers quarterback Aaron Rogers all season. However, Clifton who has had a pro bowl season suffered an injury in the NFC Championship game against the Chicago Bears. The Packers need Clifton had a 100% in the Superbowl against to protect Rogers from the Steeler's James Harrison and the rest of their fierce pass rush.
The Steelers are desperately thin on the offensive line and will be without stand out Center rookie Maurkice Pouncey. Ramon Foster has emerged as a solid starter for the Steelers on the offensive line but rookie Chris Scott has seen minimal playing time all season. One more injury on the line for the Steelers could push him into duty in the most important game all season.
Volwatch will be updated daily up until the Super Bowl. We'll keep following the UT players in the game and their health. As well as take a look back at their time at UT and other great Vol performances in the Super bowl.
The only thing Wayne Chism and the Tennessee Volunteers could do when the buzzer went off was sit… silently.
As Tom Izzo and the Michigan State Spartans celebrated after their 69-70 win against the Tennessee Volunteers, the familiar smell of the final four became more distinct. As for The Volunteers, the ride had come to an end.
Tennessee absolutely played their hearts out. On offense, they had ball movement, great shot selection and amazing execution. On defense, they had countless tipped passes and an impressive number of steals. The entire team really stepped up and showed they wanted to win this game. JP Prince didn’t miss a shot the entire game (including three alley-oop dunks) unless you count the half court buzzer beater at the end of the game. The Vols shot an impressive 7-16 from 3 point land, hitting their first six in a row. Overall the Volunteers played great.
There was just one problem though…
Tennessee shot a miserable 14 of 21 from the free throw line. Call it a personal pet peeve, but I can’t stand a bad free throw percentage. When a team is in the Elite 8, fighting for a national championship, you can’t go 14 for 21 from the free throw line. When you only lose by one point and you know you played great, you look at the numbers and that free throw percentage will give you nightmares.
As for Michigan State? Well honestly, they didn’t shoot that much better from the charity stripe going 16 for 21, but without those two points, Tennessee wins by one. See where I’m going with this?
The Spartans definitely had some impressive moments. They matched Tennessee with nearly every shot. Just when Tennessee thought they had something going, Durrell Summers would score 2 of his 21 points and his Spartan teammates would bounce right back.
They were nearly dead even to the very end…nearly. When the final buzzer sounded, Michigan State was just good enough to edge out the Vols and to go to the Final 4 for the fifth time in ten years and will play Butler for a chance to go back to the National Championship game where they have some unfinished business from last season.

Rat Kings: Who Needs 'Em?!
of Post: Just Enough Religion
Skitch sat crosslegged on the ground
between the Carriage and the Pyramid, keeping his eye on the Rat Pack. The
expression he wore was too old for his face, a shuttered and secretive glimmer
of violent anger. There was a patch of bare
earth in front of him, a flat, compacted depression the size of a small fist in
the center of it. Every now and then, he could just barely hear Khyrisse crying
in the Carriage. Khyrisse never cries, not like that, not even when she's
hurt. On such occasions he slammed his
fist furiously into the ground, heedless of the dirt it was puffing onto his
clothes, wishing it were that stupid hologram.
Someday this is going to be him. I swear.

"Khyrisse?" Ebreth tried the
door of the carriage. He could hear her crying in there. Ebreth just didn't get
it. She'd been fine until she kissed Jack. The door was locked; Ebreth took out
his credit card, and it popped open about five minutes later. He climbed in.
"Khyrisse, what's wrong?"
She made a little shriek and whirled
against the wall of the carriage, her heart just about
pounding out of her eyes. That did it. Jack
had to be right. "Khyrisse," he said, "you are buttloads more powerful
than I am. You have about a million protective spells on. You can cast things
that could blow me away. You have a magic weapon.
He caught her wrist and pulled at it; her reflexive pull back extended his arm.
"--and I think I'm the only one who's figured this out, but you're
stronger than I am. So come on, Khyrisse. What are you really scared of?"
He hesitated, and sat next to her, still holding her wrist. "Maybe I could

"Let me see if I got this straight... you all were a bunch of freelance

"Yeah, but we've, y'know, got the
memories of all the previous Rat Fist sect assassins."
"You're brainwashed trainee teenage

"High on weed!" Janice added.
"Doped-up, brainwashed, trainee

"You got it, daddy-o!"
"Oy," Asinus sighed.
"And if you're, like, going to borrow
the totem that skull-head left with us, I'm, like, gonna need to stay with you
to, like, guard it."
"If we take it, doesn't that mean you
didn't guard it well?" Jack asked.
"Whoa, don't be so, like, semantic,
"Who am I to complain," Jack
said. "Now I just need the rat to tell us where we have to take this to
deal with the King of the Kings."
The Rat looked up momentarily.
"He's sooooo cute!" Janice said,
rubbing under the Rat's chin.
"I think he's got a girlfriend,"
"Rat Pack rules, I guess," Jack
said. "Everyone's got to pair up sooner or later."
"Complaining, Jack?" Val asked.

of Post: A Nightmare From Which I Am Trying To Awake
Khyrisse scrubbed at her face with her
free hand and hiccuped over the last of her sobs. Stupidly, she picked the
least pertinent of his statements to reply to. "It's a spell, I'm not
really that strong," she said jerkily, gasping a little still.
"Seems to work pretty well despite
that," Ebreth observed. "You knocked that guy into next week. You'd
be hell in a bar fight. But that's not the point, is it? You're still afraid of
"I'm not afraid of you!"
"Well, what are you afraid of,

quickly grabbed her other wrist and prevented Khyrisse from hitting herself
again. Khyrisse looked up at him miserably, both wrists captured. "Ebreth,
you won't understand," she whispered around the stinging lump in her
throat. "I can't even understand this. You don't know the first thing
about me, do you know that? I know more about your past than you do about mine...
and I seem to drag mine around everywhere, too."

of Post: Moving On
"Then tell me," he said.
"Believe me, I won't care. I am in no position to be getting uptight about
people's pasts." He was starting to think she might have been a
prostitute, or something, but he certainly wasn't going to ask. "I stand
in the doorway and you practically have a heart attack, I say one little thing
and you get all ice princess on my ass. Now you're having a nervous breakdown.
What is going on here? What are you scared of?"
"My ex-husband," she said, very
muffled. She had no idea why, and it was only part of the story, but it was
true, and she hated it.
"Why? I bet you could kick his butt,
too." Khyrisse laughed aloud, bitterly. "Why not? Who is he?"
"Of Cynystra?" Ebreth moved his
hand dismissively. Khyrisse stared; she didn't think she'd ever seen anyone
make that gesture about Eric before. "He's no more of a bad-ass than
Lucas, and this is the second time you've hosed him. How old were you when you
"Fifteen!" It was obviously even
younger than Ebreth had been expecting. "Well listen, you're not fifteen
any more. And big men with loud voices just aren't that much of a threat to you
now. So just put that part behind you. There's nothing you can do about that
now. Put that behind you and just move on. That's what I do, and it--works for
me." He touched her face, but it was clearly really stressing her out, so
he took his hand back and moved away from her slowly. "Look," he
said, "whatever I did to hit a nerve, I'm sorry. I'm not your ex-husband.
I'm just doing the best I can. You
just, if you need anything, you just tell me. Okay?" He closed the
carriage door behind him, exhaling.
Jack inspected the rat's matrices
carefully. They seemed to be indicating the Seven Princedoms of Dalencia.

Well, that went beautifully, Khyri, she
told herself acidly. Do you think you can alienate Ebreth any further today?
Embarrass Jack some more? Give your bodyguards some more bruises? Mabye you should
see if you can aggravate everybody in the group.
Khyrisse smacked her forehead into the
seat one last time (which of course did nothing, the cushion softening the
blow, but at least it made her feel better). She levered herself to her feet
and determinedly tidied herself up, trying to get rid of the lingering
shakiness from crying so hard. Let's see if I can salvage something from the
day. For somebody who worships Grendel, I'm not being very bloody focused today
With a sigh, Khyrisse squared her
shoulders and opened the door of the Carriage.
Big men with loud voices.
Khyrisse suddenly giggled over the idea of
Ebreth calling Eric this, and startled the hell out of herself.
That may be the first time in twenty years
that I've laughed at Eric, she thought, grinning. Thank you, Ebreth.

Ebreth sighed and turned around. Skitch
was standing there, kicking at the ground in an embarrassed fashion.
"Yeah?" The kid's clothes were dusty, oddly enough. Skitch didn't
mind dirt much per se, but he was pretty fussy about his clothes.
"Thanks. I dunno what you said, but
she's lots better, and-- and anyway, thanks." Skitch flushed a little and
dashed back to the Carriage, leaving a very confused Ebreth behind him.
"Hey, Khyrisse?" said Jack,
intercepting her as she wandered away from the Carriage. Her eyes looked all
puffy for some reason. "Why don't you ever say anything nice to

Jack scurried back to Valende and his
uncle, leaving a very confused Khyrisse behind him.
Khyrisse and Alphred
Jeff Hersh and Kristin L.K. Andersen
Rat Kings: Who Needs 'Em?!
of Post: Spirit Maiden and Jungle Boy
The world was dark, like the time Alphred
was a prisoner of the Fungus Men. The darkness wasn't a bad dark. It was more
of a comfortable one. Still, he couldn't remain here. He had to recover the rat
without a tail and ask it for advice. The jungle depended on it.
Alphred tried to walk, but it was useless.
It wasn't that he was paralyzed, but the entire world was the same. Dark. Very
dark. Even so, he kept walking. That is when he saw the light, a small glimmer
ahead of him. He started to run. The light got closer much to quickly. Suddenly
he was overwhelmed in a world of light. Then everything came into focus. He was
on top of some platform. Alphred didn't like this.
Khyrisse became aware of the stirring of
the white haired stranger on top of the coach. She rushed over and leaped up
onto the driver's board, leaning over to glare furiously at poor bewildered
Alphred. She shook the oyster totem in his face.
"What the hell do you think you were
doing?" she shouted at him. "How dare you send a whole room full of
people into a frenzy, just so you don't have to push through a crowd like
Alphred looked at Khyrisse with utter
noncomprehension. He understood that he must have upset this screaming elf, but
for the life of him, he could not figure out what she was talking about.
"Have I done you wrong, spirit
maiden?" he asked, holding his right temple, which still ached.
Khyrisse blinked in astonishment.
"This!" she said, shaking the oyster totem under his nose. Alphred
reached out to take it and she whipped it out of his reach. "Oh no you
don't! This thing sent the entire place-- including me-- into a libidinous
frenzy just so you could get to the Rat. You could have pushed your way through
the crowd the hard way, like Jack and I did, but instead, you used this. I
am," she finished, with a deep breath, trying to control herself, "very
angry, unbelievably humiliated, and I would like an explanation."
Alphred opened his mouth to speak, then he
closed it. He didn't have a clue on how to explain the correctness of his
actions. How was he supposed to communicate the use of the totems that formed
all his actions, to someone who had never seen the Great Spirits of the
Ancestors? He didn't know where to start.
"Well???" Khyrisse said, growing
"Ummm, forgive me; I am trying to
find the right words, spirit maiden. I am a shaman warrior of the Great Spirits
of the Black River. By the command of Var'tooth himself, I am unable to take
any action unless I invoke one the sacred totems. The one you hold is the totem
of the blue river oyster. It increases people's desires so that they do not see
anything but what they desire. It was either that or the totem of the fire
salamanders from the mouth of the belching mountain G'kar'li."
Khyrisse tried to picture what would have
happened in this case, and didn't like any of the alternatives. She sighed in
aggravation and gave up. This was worse than trying to get an explanation out
"All right. Suppose you come down and
tell us what you wanted with the Rat? The Rat is with us, and you can't have
him unless he wants to go with you. He's leading us on a quest of a sort."
Khyrisse hopped down from the Carriage and
led Alphred over to the others, shaking her head.
Alphred and the rest of the rat groupies
Rat Kings and all that rot
of Post: Campfire tales
"So, it looks like Mr. Aphrodisiac
has finally woken up," said Asinus.
The rest of the Rat Pack ignored him.
Alphred, who was still a bit dazed, sat
across from Jack and the Rat.
"I have traveled from the jungles of
the Salagia on a matter of great importance," said Alphred, with a
"Which is?" asked Ebreth.
"The great totems of my ancestors
have told me that a great strife is coming to the land. I have been instructed
to seek three persons who can tell me how to heal this pestilence."
Alphred paused then continued.
"The rat without a tail is said to
understand," he said pointing to the rodent on Jack's shoulder. "I am
certain that he is the rodent I seek. After all it is obviously the servant of
Nur'ur, the god who walks the land, the living number."
Jack squirmed at being called a god.
"The second I seek is the sage from
the eastern forbidden lands. Who this person is I do not know, but I am sure to
find him. The last person I am to find is she who has fallen from the divine.
The woman who lives between the ground and the sky."
Khyrisse blanched at Alphred's
description. She really hoped she wasn't this third person. She had enough to
worry about right now.
"So let me get this straight,"
said Vas. "You have traveled thousands of miles to find a rat, a man from
the east and a woman who was once divine?"
"Yes, the great spirits of my
ancestors who live in the ruins surrounding the Great Obelisk of Tiki-too told
me as much."
"One question, Tarzan," said
"I am Alphred, not this Ta'ar Zhan. I
am lord of the Jungles of Salagia."
"Right. Whatever. What I want to know
is, what are you going to do once you find all three of these people?"
A grin of pure faith spread over Alphred's
face. "The spirits will guide me."
"Oh great," said Ebreth.
Nur'ur, the Living Number
Rat Kings: Onwards to Showdown
of Post: The Answer Was There The Whole Time
Jack was going over the Rat's messages.
The Seven Princedoms were a big place, and Alph didn't seem to have any
suggestions. He hoped that people assumed that "Nur'ur the Living
Number" was a figurative description. Jack looked at the first message,
the Tharrfest brochure that had brought them to Rumi. The Rumi docks were
perfectly clear. No help there. The second message, the Rat's extrapolations on
the Johhn Calculation that had sent them to Rimbor made more sense now. Jack
kicked himself for not noticing the pyramidal sequences inherent in the Rimbor
matrices. Still, it didn't indicate anything about a next step.
The final thing the rat had done was make
a nest out of the two. It was definitely a topological indication of something,
but all it seemed to be was a factorial of the Johhn Calculation that pointed
back to the Tharrfest brochure.
Then it hit Jack harder than a pissed-off
He was missing the forest for the trees,
as it were.
Two days from now, in Tharr, central of
all the Seven Princedoms. The Rat didn't need to mathematically indicate
something that was on a flarking picture in the middle of his nest.
"I've got it," Jack muttered.
"I've got the Rat's message."
"Anything to get us moving
again," Ebreth sighed, avoiding Khyrisse's gaze.
"What's this?" he asked the
"It's a topological ana-something of
the wharf district in Rumi," Vas almost quoted correctly.
"That's what I thought... but Kevin
"Kevin the bartender?" Khyrisse
Jack replayed Kevin's voice. "I won't
even ask how you can recognize a map of the wharf district of Rumi. It looks
like a chewed up Tharrfest brochure to me."
"No duh," Ariath said.
"Tharr is the keystone of the Seven
Princedoms," Khyrisse said, coming to life. "The Rat indicated the
Princedoms... you think Tharrfest?"
"Boy, that's really convenient,"
Ebreth muttered. "Almost like someone knew what they were doing."
"Well, I'm ready to kick Odn's butt
if you are," Khyrisse said. "All aboard!"

of Post: Janus Waits
Janus appeared behind an ale booth at
Tharrfest. His work was almost done. Two more visits, and his debt would be
repaid. And one of them would take place here, later today, when the Rat Pack
arrived at Tharrfest. "Man, I remember how I always hated
prophecies," Janus sighed in his weird sepulchral voice.
The Master of the Five Elements showed no
expression on his featureless black face, but anticipation battled with worry
in his heart. He put his hand to the unfamiliar sword at his side. He wished he
had his own blade here, but that wasn't possible right now. At least that cute
elf would be there, he thought.

of Post: Planning Ahead-- More or Less
Khyrisse stopped dead on the driver's step
with a sudden exclamation. She hopped off again and went to the phantom team,
and removed all the silver bells from the harness. "How come?" Skitch
said curiously from the roof. "Well,
if Odn is in Tharr already, he probably knows we're coming," she said in a
practical tone, "but I'd rather not give him any advance warning that I
don't have to. I have a nasty feeling that we're going to need all the
advantages we can get. I'm going to make the Carriage invisible." She cast
an area-effect invisibility on one of the leaders of the team. The spectral
steeds vanished. Khyrisse climbed back onto the Carriage roof and repeated the
process on the vehicle itself. The Carriage and passengers vanished as well.
"Now if we can just stay quiet once we get there, we can take a look
around and find out a few things before we announce our presence," she
called, loudly enough so those inside could hear as well, and settled herself
on the roof. Vas took off and sent them whizzing through the air to the
northeast at a frightening speed.
Khyrisse looked down into the ocean
between Rimbor and Diaria, with nothing to block her view, not even her own
body. She had never been afraid of heights, but even she gulped a little.
"Anyone who's prone to air or motion sickness should probably take a
nap," she said, a little belatedly.
Ebreth watched the familiar coastlines
streak by beneath him dispassionately. One nice thing about doing hard time in
Hell was that you got to have a very keen awareness of all the limits of your
body, and Ebreth Tor was not the least bit prone to motion sickness.

"Of course he's not a demon,"
said Val, indignantly.
"Hey, there are a lot of dorks in the

of Post: War! Huh! What is it good for?
The King of Kings, aka Odn, was very
happy. Even with the interference of the Dead College, and some of his subjects
disappearing, his plans were finally coming together. The level of necromantic
energy in the Seven Princedoms was starting to build. Due to his and the
Collector's influence, each of the Princedoms was at war with another. A few
more days of the slaughter, and he would have enough energy to cast the final
spell. The spell that would place him among the gods.
Odn gazed into his crystal ball.
Currently, there was a battle between the forces of Margonal and Oranda. It was
a fairly even battle, but it seemed that Oranda was winning. It didn't matter
who won. All that mattered was the slaughter.

Beliath walked rapidly through the
corridors of the Dead College, and he was not happy. It was one thing being

King of Kings told him not to interfere. Well that was exactly what he was
going to do. He would teach that second-rate sorcerer not to mess with him.

A 12-hour humanitarian ceasefire has begun to allow civilians in Gaza to receive aid and evacuate to safer areas.
A British man was among those killed in the crash of an Air Algerie airliner in Mali, it has been announced.
Published: 26 April 2013
When Toyota introduced the RAV 4 in 1994 it was the world’s first compact SUV. Now the market is crowded with 19 similar models and the cars have grown up.
The new sharper-styled fourth-generation RAV 4 is half a metre longer than the original and much more luxurious. Britain gets one petrol and two diesel versions with two or four-wheel-drive, and 80 per cent of buyers are expected to opt for the 4x4. That’s just as well, because that version feels far better planted on the road and corners with a minimum of fuss.
The cabin has a classy feel, helped by a stitched and padded lower dashboard panel. Head and leg-room are generous, especially in the back. Rear seats recline or fold flat to create 1,746 litres of floor-to-ceiling loadspace.
At the launch the two-litre 122hp diesel engine felt adequate but the 2.2-litre version with 148hp was far perkier and particularly suited automatic transmission. The two-litre 149hp petrol version was not available.
Priced between £22,600 and £29,300, the RAV 4 makes a strong case for itself against rivals such as the Honda CR-V, Ford Kuga and VW Tiguan. Despite Toyota’s keenness on hybrid power, there is no electrically assisted version in the pipeline at the moment because of the RAV 4’s popularity as a tow car.

ECONOMICS may be the dismal science, but these days the news about chemistry, physics and biology is fairly dismal as well. At the end of April, the National Science Foundation released its biannual report on the state of science and to no one's surprise, public understanding and attitudes have been found wanting.
A bare majority of Americans, for instance, know that it takes the Earth a year to orbit the Sun, according to a survey conducted for the report. More than half think that the dinosaurs and the earliest humans coexisted, and that lasers work with sound waves.
Scientific illiteracy in the United States is not a new problem, of course, and the foundation's analysis contained the usual hand-wringing about the state of science education, particularly in secondary schools. But perhaps the problem goes beyond the classroom, to what happens when school is out.
For many children, particularly boys, free play used to mean fiddling around with a chemistry set in the basement or lighting things on fire in the backyard. These days, with parents' penchant for overscheduling their children, there is less time for such youthful experimentation.
This is not all bad — no doubt fewer children are getting hurt. But backyard tinkering used to lead, if not to a scientific career, at least to continued informal pursuit of science as an adult hobby. If that is not so much the case anymore — if yesterday's youthful tinkerers no longer grind their own telescope mirrors, build radios or order weather balloons by mail from Edmund Scientific — something important may have been lost.
"Parents tell me their kids don't do much of it, mainly because they make sure their kids' days are fully scheduled from breakfast to lights-out," said Homer Hickam, whose best-selling memoir, "Rocket Boys" (Delacorte, 1998), recounted his youthful adventures exploring rocketry in a West Virginia coal town in the Sputnik era. "It's a shame," he said via e-mail. "I had a lot of time on my hands when I was growing up and learned to fill that time with imaginative pursuits."
Youthful tinkering can often lead to a career in science or engineering. Mr. Hickam, for example, was a NASA engineer before turning to writing. And the founders of Apple Computer , Stephen Wozniak and Steven P. Jobs, famously pieced together their first computers on a wooden workbench in a California garage.
"In the old days, we got good engineers because people got to focus on it early," said William Gurstelle, an engineer in Minneapolis. Many of those engineers, he said, came from rural areas, where as they grew up they faced a choice. "There was nothing to do in those towns except drink and tinker," Mr. Gurstelle said. "You either went one direction or the other."
Alarmed about the lack of tinkering, Mr. Gurstelle wrote a book, "Backyard Ballistics" (Chicago Review Press, 2001), that features simple and safe pyrotechnic experiments for older children, including potato cannons and tennis-ball mortars. But the problems he had getting it published, he said, illustrate another reason that tinkering is in decline.
MR. GURSTELLE said he left some of the riskier projects out of the manuscript (including a simulated grain elevator explosion) and included a long section about safety, but the book was still rejected by many publishers who were scared about the potential for lawsuits.
But the potential for lawsuits may not be the only reason for the decline in tinkering. For one thing, there's stiff competition from television, video games, computers and other distractions. For another, science hobbies aren't so simple anymore.
"The things that people could work on right now have gotten really complicated," Mr. Gurstelle said. People are considered adept, for example, if they can swap out a computer hard drive. Almost no one can get inside a drive and repair it. People who as teenagers three or four decades ago could tune their own cars with little more than a timing gun would need thousands of dollars of equipment, and a course of study at a trade school, to do so today.
But a little complexity is not necessarily so bad, said Shawn Carlson, director of the Society for Amateur Scientists and the last writer of the Amateur Scientist column in Scientific American (the column was canceled several years ago). Sure, Mr. Carlson said, Heathkit build-it-yourself radios are no longer available, but these days, for not very much money, a hobbyist can buy an exceptional radio that will allow a level of involvement and discovery that wouldn't have been possible before. Very few people grind telescope mirrors anymore, but for someone with an interest in astronomy there are good, relatively inexpensive telescopes that make it easy to explore the heavens.
"Do you lose something by not making your own telescope?" Mr. Carlson said. "Of course you do. But at the same time, a lot of people can get involved who couldn't have before."
MR. CARLSON thinks there are still plenty of opportunities for people, young or old, to be involved in science, although admittedly they may be more formal than before. There are birding programs, museums that organize dinosaur digs, model rocketry clubs and robotics clubs, to name just a few. (Clubs for building fighting robots have become especially popular, and even Mr. Gurstelle acknowledges that they are a "tinkerer's delight.")
The important thing, Mr. Carlson said, "is to try to identify those people who have an aptitude and an interest in science and give them all the help they need to take it as far as they can."
Mr. Hickam said that in his travels, he occasionally attends local science fairs and sees first-hand those children who have a passion for science. "Some don't care how anything works as long as it does," he said. "But others, mostly the minority, have a natural curiosity about things and will eventually, no matter how structured their life, haul out a screwdriver and have at it."

“Don’t Hang Up” by the Orlons rattled the Gothic-style rafters of the Class of 1949 Auditorium in Houston Hall, but no one got up to dance. Two of the men who made Philadelphia one of the brightest lights in the popular music galaxy, Joe Tarsia, founder of Sigma Sound Studios, and Dave Appell, who worked as a composer, engineer and producer at Cameo-Parkway Records, nodded their heads in time to the driving beat. They were at Penn as featured speakers when the national conference of the Association of Recorded Sound Collections met here May 28 to June 1.
In a nostalgia-laced conversation, Tarsia and Appell reminisced about the days when Dick Clark ruled the TV airwaves from 46th and Market and, in a Center City sound studio, they filled America’s appetite for the new music called rock ’n’ roll. They played some of their hits—“Didn’t I” by the Delphonics, produced by the legendary Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, “Mashed Potato Time” by Dee Dee Sharp—and told great stories. They talked about the remarkable technological advances that have been made since they started with two monaural tape recorders—and told great stories. They traced the history of independent studios from the days when you could cut a record on Monday and have it in the stores on Friday to today’s complex process—and told great stories.
“We were interested in real sound, not over-engineered, none of those Phil Spector ‘wall of sound’ techniques,” said Tarsia. “I learned that if the room is right, you make a great record.
“On ‘Bristol Stomp,’” Appell added, “all we had were bass drum, maracas and a guitar.”
Appell, whose first hit was the 1958 novelty tune “Mexican Hat Rock,” a bizarre amalgamation of the “Mexican Hat Dance” and “O Dem Golden Slippers” (“the nuns loved it”), revealed one of the secrets of his songwriting success—find a song that had come off copyright and re-work it. “Ida” became “Wild One” for Bobby Rydell. “South Street?” “That’s the Stephen Foster classic ‘Camptown Races,’” Appell explained as the audience gasped in recognition. “I always liked that tune.”

If you have a boy, you’ll need to decide whether to have him circumcised. Unless you are sure you’re having a girl, it’s a good idea to make a decision about circumcision ahead of time, so you don’t have to struggle with it amid the fatigue and excitement following delivery.
Circumcision has been practiced as a religious rite for thousands of years. In the United States, most boys are circumcised for religious or social reasons. At present, there is discussion over whether circumcision is advisable from a medical standpoint. There are potential medical benefits to circumcision as well as risks. A recent analysis by the American Academy of Pediatrics concluded that the medical benefits of circumcision outweigh the risks. Studies have concluded that circumcised infants have a slightly lower risk of urinary tract infections, although these are not common in boys and occur less often in circumcised boys mostly in the first year of life. Neonatal circumcision also provides some protection from penile cancer, a very rare condition.
Some research also suggests a reduced likelihood of developing sexually transmitted diseases
infections in circumcised men, and possibly a reduced risk for cervical cancer
in female partners of circumcised men. However, while there are potential medical benefits, these data are not sufficient to recommend routine neonatal circumcision of all boys. We recommend that the decision to circumcise is one best made by parents in consultation with their pediatrician, taking into account what is in the best interests of the child, including medical, religious, cultural, and ethnic traditions and personal beliefs.
Circumcision does, however, pose certain risks, such bleeding and swelling. While they may occur, however, bleeding and swelling are rare.
Although the evidence also is clear that infants experience pain, there are several safe and effective ways to reduce the pain. If the baby is born prematurely, has an illness at birth, or has congenital abnormalities or blood problems, he should not be circumcised immediately. For example, if a condition called hypospadias is present, in which the infant’s urinary opening has not formed normally, your doctor will probably recommend that your baby boy not be circumcised at birth. In fact, circumcision should be performed only on stable, healthy infants.
At birth, most boys have skin that completely covers, or almost covers, the end of the penis. Circumcision removes some of this foreskin so that the tip of the penis (glans) and the opening of the urethra, through which the baby urinates, are exposed to air. Routine circumcisions are performed in the hospital within a few days of birth. When done by an experienced physician, circumcision takes only a few minutes and is rarely complicated. After consultation with you, your doctor will provide local anesthesia to reduce the pain the baby experiences during the procedure; the doctor should inform you in advance about the type of anesthesia she recommends.

Everywhere I go, I am always looking for new places to try cake or for quirky little places to curl up with a nice cup of tea. Recently on an impromptu trip to Seaburn with Mama L, I was lucky enough to stumble across a fabulous little tearoom that I didn't even know existed (don't you just love it when that happens?!) so here we have it...introducing 'The Mad Hatter'.
'The Mad Hatter' is situated near the bottom of Sea Road and is the perfect spot to eat if you've had a metro ride into Seaburn. A must visit for all fans of 'Alice in Wonderland', it's hard to resist the cafe's alluring charm even from the outside.
The day we found it, we'd already had lunch and it was that time of day when I was craving a nice thirst-quenching cup of tea. Luckily my lunch wasn't huge, so my attention turned straight to the board that featured the sweet treats. A sucker for cheesecake, I opted for a strawberry one and boy was it good! Mama L chose a toasted tea cake and we both got a brew, decaf for me, which came in the cutest teapots and cups.
Once fed and watered, I turned my attention to the decor, which was very Alice everywhere you looked. From pictures to novelties, it's like sitting in your own little piece of Wonderland!
Loving it so much, I started to wish I hadn't had lunch so we could've had afternoon tea for the jaw-dropping bargain price of £7.50 per person! So being savvy, I decided to arrange a revisit with my VBF on Good Friday so we could sample it.
Arriving on a miserable day after watching Cinderella at the cinema we were more than ready for a good feed!! For your afternoon tea at the 'Mad Hatter' you choose a sandwich from the menu and a cake, then obviously you get a cream scone and a massive pot of tea to wash it all down. I went for an egg mayo sandwich and Natalie chose tuna, so we had half of each other's. The mayo was a little sloppy but the sandwiches were good! The scones were pretty special and I'm pleased to report that we got proper clotted cream, not a tin of squirty cream in sight!! Finally, the key lime pie we chose was to die for and I savoured every last bite. For the amount of food I ate, I can't believe how cheap it was and it was definitely worth the revisit! I'll definitely be back again for another afternoon tea at some point.
So if you find your tummy grumbling whilst in Seaburn, trot along to the 'Mad Hatter'. It's a very important date worth not being late for!!
You can find The Mad Hatter online here. I'd recommend booking for afternoon tea to avoid disappointment-it's quite a popular little place!

Why single-level living could be the right option for you
As William Shakespeare said, “people usually are the happiest at home.” But if your house is no longer making you happy, perhaps it’s time to find your next property.
Think about the dream. What do you want from your home and are you getting this where you are? If the answer is no, maybe it’s time to start looking.
As you plan and look to the future, you may want to consider the blessings of living on a single-level. A bungalow or a flat can offer many benefits. Here are some things to bear in mind when you’re considering your next move:
Whether you’re downsizing from a larger house or simply choosing a new style of property, maybe surprisingly some flats and apartments can offer plenty of living space to suit your needs. They can be as big or small as you like and with handy space-saving storage solutions available, you can create multi-purpose rooms on any budget.
Love to garden? Pick the perfect bungalow and enjoy the combination of both outdoor and indoor living areas. Bungalows are set on premium plots, typically with a premium price tag, and have fast become a rare treat on the market. They are often open-plan, and one of the huge benefits with this style of living is that you can see light flooding from room to room, providing a fresh feeling for you to enjoy.
By selling your current house and choosing to secure your next home, you’re in a great position to save money. You could pay off past debts and secure future inheritance, as well as freeing up funds for your retirement.
While a bungalow may be more expensive to purchase than your average house, they do offer a larger plot for your money. Flats can offer the space you need for a fraction of the cost of a house, and you have a far greater choice when it comes to location and property style. Plus, single-floor homes are much cheaper to heat and run.
A huge benefit to single-level living is the low maintenance nature of the properties. With lots of space available you could be tempted to fill it and feel cluttered, but with a more manageable approach to cleaning it could be easier now you’re only on one floor.
Why not try 10-minute cleaning tasks? Breaking up the routine and tackling your space in smaller chunks will feel like a breeze. Not only will looking after the interior be less work, but outdoor aspects like guttering and windows are easier to reach and clean too.
Some flats will often have communal areas where the upkeep is shared, lightening the load for you and offering a community feel to the work. If you’re working with a modest outdoor space, try our 6 quick and simple tips for a stunning smaller garden.
Making the choice to move to single level now, may reduce the need for you to move again in the future. With no stairs in your home, there are no mobility limits or obstructions. You wouldn’t be restricted in any way and able to enjoy the whole of your home.
When the time comes to retire, it’s essential you feel settled and relaxed in your home. With no more property worries, you’ll enjoy spending time at home with friends and family.
Greater accessibility throughout your property can only mean a greater love of your home. As you think about the future and your retirement, it’s important to love your home as well as its location. Not sure where your perfect place may be? Have a read of our blog to help you choose your dream location and love where you live.
It’s a big decision to move to a new house, you’ve made memories there and it can be difficult to see yourself in any other place. If you’re considering a change and not sure where to begin, we are here to help.

Life at № 42
Made sushi last night successfully for the first time. I thought it was going to be terribly complicated and difficult. It was a bit sticky and a bit messy, but well worth it.
I’d tried making sushi once before but was unable to roll the roll- which meant I put the book back on the shelf and forgot about it. This time around I went slowly and followed the instructions for the rice very carefully. That was the trick. The rice has to be at a very precise texture so it all sticks together. Cutting the rolls began badly. The knife must be incredibly sharp or everything falls apart. Fortunately I remembered my cuchillo jamonero, a spanish knife designed to cut ham very finely, it worked perfectly.
I love the idea of vegetarian sushi. It opens up a whole world of interesting options and combinations. As it was my first time, I kept it simple. The roll was cucumber, avocado and mushroom, the oshi-zushi was mango, avocado and cashew nuts. I’ll have to sit down and think about how to refine the flavours for the future, but in all it was a promising start.
I’m not turning completely vegetarian, but after watching a documentary called Food Inc. a few weeks ago I decided it was time to seriously reconsider what we eat. Not that we had a bad diet, if we have fast food it’s once a year at the most- but I did occasionally buy a processed dish or two. Maybe a frozen quiche or ready-made tomato sauce, and I didn’t pay too close attention to meat origin. That Is Over. Never again will I buy a tray of ground beef at the supermarket or chicken that’s not marked free range. In fact, I’m making an effort to only buy what’s produced right here in our region.

Sunday May 6, 2001 Pittsburgh, PA
I flew to Pittsburgh and was in the GA line at the Mellon Arena by 9:30am. Insane! I met a lot of great people including Tasha and Frank. I almost knocked myself out when I hit my head on the metal barriers. So embarrassing and it really hurt!
The U2 show in Pittsburgh had the best set list and best energy so far. I was one person back from the rail in front of Bono, inside the heart for the first time. PJ Harvey opened. Tonight U2 played Gone, Kite, Angel of Harlem and Sweetest Thing. When they started into Gone, I screamed so loud scaring my new friend Tasha and her sister Kelly. It was great to be that close for songs like Bad, One, Stuck in a Moment, Elevation, etc. But I do still prefer seeing the show from the tip of the heart because it’s a better all around view. I couldn’t appreciate it when Bono was out there. Great time though! Bono blew bubbles during Walk On, and I touched Bono’s hand during Beautiful Day. Gone was definitely my highlight of the show. This Pittsburgh show has been the best overall experience so far. The GA line was the most fun, and the concert was the longest and had the best set list.
This Pittsburgh show is what really started the magical experience that was the Elevation tour. It was the first time I stood inside the heart at the front rail. It was the first time I waited in the GA line all day. It was the first time I made friends that I continued to hang out with during the tour and then I met their friends, and so on. I met Tasha in Pittsburgh and she is still one of my friends today.
Elevation Pittsburgh 5.6.01 Set List: Elevation, Beautiful Day, Until the End of the World, New Year’s Day, Stuck In a Moment, Gone, Kite, New York, I Will Follow, Sunday Bloody Sunday, Sweetest Thing, In a Little While, Angel of Harlem, Stay, Bad/All I Want Is You, Where the Streets Have No Name, Mysterious Ways, The Fly, Bullet the Blue Sky, With or Without You, Pride, One, Walk On.

How To File A Workers Comp Claim In New Jersey
When you are hurt at work, things can feel very uncertain and confusing. Luckily, workers in New Jersey have the right to medical treatment and wages while they are out of work through the workers’ compensation system. This article will discuss what you need to do to begin the workers’ compensation process, including when you need to hire an attorney.
First Steps after Your Work Injury
1. Seek Medical Treatment
Your health is important, so you should seek medical attention as soon as you can after any work injury. If it is an emergency situation, you do not need to get authorization from your employer to go directly to a hospital or urgent care facility. However, if it is not an emergency, your employer should direct you where to go for treatment. If you choose your own doctor, your medical bills may not be paid.
2. Notify Your Employer
After seeing a doctor, you should notify your employer of the injury immediately. You must reach out to your supervisor or human resources as soon as you can after you realize you have been injured. Sometimes a worker can lose the right to benefits if they wait too long to notify their employer.
If you can, you should make that notification in writing or by email and keep a copy for yourself. Notification does not have to be in writing, but it could be useful evidence in your case later.
When Will I Get Paid?
If an authorized workers’ compensation doctor recommends you take time off work due to your injury or treatment, then you are entitled to something called Temporary Total Benefits.
Temporary Total Benefits are a portion of your normal paycheck that you are entitled to while you cannot work and are in active medical attention. It is typically around 70% of your weekly wages. You should receive those payments regularly while you are out of work, and most workers receive their payments within a few weeks.
Once your treatment is complete, you may also be entitled to benefits for the permanent changes you experience as a result of your injury. Typically, these benefits are paid as a result of an order from a Judge of Workers’ Compensation. An attorney can assist you gathering evidence of those permanent changes from medical experts and present the evidence to the Court. An attorney may also assist you in negotiating a settlement for you without the need to go to trial.
Once an order is entered by a judge, the insurance carrier has sixty (60) days to process the payment. That payment is not taxable under New Jersey state law.
When Should I Get an Attorney?
A workers’ compensation attorney is an important advocate for you after an injury. An attorney will fight to get you all available benefits and ensure you are treated fairly. You can talk to a workers’ compensation attorney as soon as you know you were injured at work. The attorney does not have to take formal action immediately, and they can advise you of what to expect as far as next steps in your claim.
You should absolutely talk to an attorney if your claim is denied by the employer. Sometimes employers or their insurance company will deny that the injury was caused by working and refuse to pay for rehab or time out of work. If that happens, you should contact an attorney immediately for assistance.
You may also consult with an attorney if you need additional therapy or are not being paid for the time a doctor keeps you out of work. An attorney can file a formal Claim Petition on your behalf with the New Jersey Workers’ Compensation Court, as well as motions for medical or other benefits.
Overall, if you are unsure of how to proceed after your work injury or you are concerned you are not receiving the benefits you deserve, you should consult with an attorney. The Division of Workers’ Compensation recommends you hire an attorney if you are pursuing a formal claim for workers’ compensation. The laws and procedure surrounding this type of law can be confusing. An attorney can guide you and advocate for you to make a difficult situation as straightforward as possible.

President Vladimir Putin has said Russia will do its utmost to stop the bloodshed in Ukraine, but also that he has approved defence ministry plans to set up a military task force in Crimea.
Putin was addressing Russia's parliament on Thursday, known as Duma, that had travelled en masse from its normal seat in Moscow to Yalta in Crimea, in what many are seeing as a sign to the people of the recently annexed region that they have not been forgotten.
"We will do everything in our power so that this conflict is ended as soon as possible, so that the blood can stop flowing in Ukraine," Putin said.
Live Box 2014219141227163276
Al Jazeera's Rory Challands, reporting from the meeting hall in Yalta, said Putin had already been in the region for a few days, meeting its interim leaders.
"If Crimea wanted a display from the Russian government that it takes them and their causes seriously then this is it," our correspondent said.
Putin's address, ahead of a Duma extraordinary meeting, emphasised the work that was being done to transform Crimea during its "period of transition".
The Russian president pledged more than 700bn roubles would be sent to the region to creat new jobs and improve the transport and communication infastructure.
Putin also said Russia would support the "rehabilitaiton of a repressed people" by preserving three official languages: Russian, Ukrainian and Crimean Tatar.
The Tatars have a fractous relationship with Russia, and many felt that their rights would be forgotten when the region was annexed.
Despite worsening relationships with the West, illustrated by increasingly harsh sanctions on both sides, Putin said on Thursday that Russia should not "fence itself off from the outside world" and added that the ongoing tit-for-tat trade restrictions did not mean Russia was looking to "should break ties with partners. But we should also not let them treat us with disdain".
Research Analyst at the Royal United Services Institute for Defence and Security Studies Justin Bronk told Al Jazeera Putin had staked a lot of his personal credibility on Crimea.
"Putin has a very very difficult balancing act that he need to keep up here because for him, his domestic popularity ratings are all important. He has staked an enormous amount of personal crdibility on Crimea and also on the separatists in Ukraine," Bronk said.
"Because those separatists are being pushed back, he's now under pressure to either intervene militarily or disown them, which is probably why he's giving this display of faith towards Crimea.
"The near miracle, as it is seen in Russia, of having returned Crimea bloodlessly to Russia, is keeping his ratings high, but in the long term it will tail of and then the economic cost of his policies may start to hurt him."

‘To save biker lives, give them an airbag’
Wearing airbag vests could prevent 10% of road deaths and many more serious injuries among motorcyclists. The French road safety organization, Sécurité Routière, is launching a campaign in this Advent to raise awareness of these airbags for motorcycles.
“Give an airbag to your loved ones” to protect them and save them from death or serious injury in the event of an accident, says the essence of this advertising campaign presented by Emmanuel Barbe, the inter-ministerial delegate for road safety during a press conference in Paris.
The airbag is integrated into a jacket of the rider and inflates automatically in one or two tenths of a second as soon as the short thread connecting it to the motorcycle breaks, which is the case when the rider falls in an accident.
Protection is crucial
According to Sécurité Routière, it is 22 times more likely bikers are killed on the road than motorists, while bikers represent less than 2% of traffic. The widespread use of airbags among bikers could prevent more than 10% of deaths and even more serious injuries.
“It has to become a habit like a seat belt: before riding a motorcycle, you have to put on an airbag”, says Barbe. An airbag, protecting the upper body, from the cervical to the abdomen, currently costs 400 euro.
“As part of this campaign, which will last until the end of December, nine producers of these vests will give a price reduction of around 20%”, Barbe added. “It’s a good time to buy an airbag and especially convince bikers to use such safety equipment.
However, it will not be made mandatory”, he stressed. “We just want this product to be better known in general and that it is used by all motorcycle professionals.” Wearing this vest makes you cautious, because it reminds you that on a motorcycle you are more vulnerable. This has been observed among all those who use it.”
“In Fontainebleau (Seine-et-Marne region) the police reported about 50 airbag activations over the year. The the number of serious injuries was reduced by a factor of five”, he concludes.

Medical Laboratory Science
The Division of Medical Laboratory Science began in 1933 and is one of the oldest undergraduate programs in the country. Medical laboratory scientists perform clinical laboratory testing that aid healthcare providers in the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of disease. This undergraduate degree attracts students of varying backgrounds and degrees providing a new career or foundation for advanced degrees. Students interested in Medical Laboratory Science may attend the Lexington campus or the Center of Excellence in Rural Health campus in Hazard. Graduates can be found in a diverse setting such as laboratories, (e.g., hospital, physician office, reference, research, state, veterinary), administration, academia, consulting, graduate school, and sales.
Minor in Health Advocacy
The minor in Health Advocacy educates students to serve as patient advocates to improve health and health care and help patients access an increasingly complex medical system. Advocacy careers span the spectrum from patient advocacy in direct service to individuals, to community advocacy initiatives on behalf of geographic or disease-specific populations, to system-level policy-based advocacy activities. The minor in Health Advocacy lays a foundation for pursuing a career in this field or furthering graduate educational opportunities.
Clinical Healthcare Management Certificate
The undergraduate certificate in Clinical Healthcare Management will benefit any currently enrolled University of Kentucky student interested in obtaining clinical management and leadership skills necessary for a management position in healthcare as well as practicing professionals such as Nurses, Physicians, Dentists, and others that would like to enhance their management skills in the health care field.
Undergraduate Certificate in Research in Human Health Sciences
The Certificate in Research in Human Health Sciences provides any UK undergraduate student with the opportunity to gain advanced knowledge in interdisciplinary clinical and translational research in the human health sciences fields.
Certificate in Nutrition For Human Performance
Human Health Sciences (HHS), in collaboration with Kinesiology and Health Promotion (KHP) and Dietetics and Human Nutrition (DHN), is now offering an undergraduate Certificate in Nutrition for Human Performance. The purpose of this certificate is to focus on the integration of nutrition and exercise to properly support physical activity, fitness, and athletic performance at all levels, from those just starting an exercise program, to elite athletes, and those recovering from injury. The Certificate in Nutrition for Human Performance also provides students with cross-disciplinary knowledge of the relationship between exercise physiology, nutrition, and overall wellness..
Graduate/Professional Degree Programs
The Division of Athletic Training provides the only master’s program in the state. This program develops skills necessary to conduct research and increase proficiency in injury prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation. Students have been successful in producing and studying new knowledge in the profession. Students are fully funded via graduate and research assistantships. The master’s degree program in Athletic Training (AT) is designed to accommodate both NATA certified athletic trainers and NATA “certification eligible” athletic trainers. Students and faculty in this program are involved in the Rehab Sciences Ph.D. program.
Clinical Nutrition (in collaboration with the College of Medicine)
The Clinical Nutrition (CN) program, developed under the leadership of Dr. Paul Thornton, was one of the first programs in our College. The faculty collaborates with the Department of Pharmacology and Nutritional Sciences to educate masters and doctoral students in primarily clinical and sports nutrition. CN Division faculty also provide nutrition education to medical and other health professionals throughout the Commonwealth and beyond. Current Program areas of instructional emphasis include clinical, sports, community and molecular nutrition.
Communication Sciences & Disorders (Master's degree)
The Division of Communication Sciences and Disorders offers both a pre-professional undergraduate degree in communication sciences and disorders and a master’s degree program in speech-language pathology. Speech-language pathologists are health care professionals who evaluate and treat problems related to speech sound production, comprehension and production of language, voice, stuttering, swallowing, orofacial anomalies, and hearing for individuals across the lifespan. The program provides an academic clinic where 1st year graduate students serve outpatients. Additionally there are comprehensive inpatient and outpatient speech-language pathology services for UK Hospital and Kentucky Clinic. Students and faculty in this program are also involved in the Rehabilitation Sciences Ph.D. program.
The Division of Physical Therapy is one of only two PT programs at a public institution in Kentucky. One fourth of physical therapy students in the program are trained at the Center of Excellence in Rural Health in Hazard Kentucky in order to meet the need for PTs in underserved areas of rural Kentucky. The PT program enrolled its first cohort of students in the clinical doctorate program (DPT) in 2006. In addition, UKPT offered a transitional DPT program from 2007- 2013, designed for practicing physical therapists to advance their knowledge and practice to clinical doctorate levels. Physical therapy is a dynamic profession with an established theoretical base and widespread clinical applications in the preservation, development, and restoration of optimal physical function. The physical therapist is a health professional who performs physical therapy examination in order to provide evaluation, appropriate diagnosis, and interventions for individuals with pathologies, impairments, and functional limitations that interfere with participation in activities relevant to their lives. Students and faculty in this program are involved in the Rehab Sciences PhD program.
Physician Assistant Studies
Physician Assistants are health professionals who practice medicine under the supervision of a licensed physician. PAs care for the wellbeing of others by performing history and physical examinations, ordering and interpreting laboratory tests, establishing diagnoses and treatment plans, counseling patients, and assisting in surgery. PAs meet the primary care and specialty service delivery needs of the people of Kentucky and beyond. The College of Health Sciences houses the longest running PA program in Kentucky. In addition to the Lexington campus, the Program has a campus in Morehead, Kentucky for rural training and clinical affiliations in Louisville where students are trained in a more urban environment.

According to the Financial Times, the board of Canary Wharf is considering several offers for some of the buildings on its London docklands estate.
Although the approaches are at a preliminary stage, the private company could sell one or two of its buildings, representing 10 per cent of the total space, as early as the New Year, according to property market insiders.
The board is sifting through opportunistic bids from UK institutions, syndicates, listed companies, foreign groups, German funds and private companies.
Although these offers are not for Canary Wharf´s five biggest towers, they involve hundreds of millions of pounds. The company may choose to carry out refinancing or joint ventures rather than straight sales, it is believed. These moves are likely to be considered at the company´s next monthly board meeting.
Royal Bank of Scotland paid Canary Wharf £1.1bn a year ago for two buildings - 25 Canada Square, leased by Citigroup, and 5 Canada Square, occupied by CSFB. Recently Canary Wharf had appeared to be in no hurry to sell property. However, it is understood that the current buying frenzy for commercial property has given its owners an unprecedented chance to sell.
The east London estate is 67 per cent owned by Songbird, a consortium which includes Morgan Stanley, private investor Simon Glick and Goldman Sachs´ Whitehall Fund.
The other shareholders are Brascan, the Canadian company, with 17 per cent; Franklin Mutual, the US fund, with 7 per cent; and Ontario Pension Fund with 6 per cent.
Canary Wharf has not sold any buildings since it went private. However, the Aim admission document for Songbird - its B shares are listed on the junior London market - said it was prepared to dispose of certain assets at the right time.
Canary Wharf´s portfolio was valued at yields of 5.75-6.25 per cent in June, since when the prices of commercial property have undergone a surge.
The sell-off of one or two buildings would not herald an immediate break-up of the Canary Wharf estate. It is thought the group´s management is more likely to hold out for the arrival in the UK of real estate investment trusts (Reits). These tax-transparent vehicles could enable the company to hold stakes in various buildings and continue to manage them, but also allow private individuals to invest in them.
Given Canary Wharf´s low contingent capital gains liability, the group would benefit from Reit status more than some other property companies.
The company still owns 5m square feet of undeveloped land, and has planning permission to develop more skyscrapers in the medium term. Canary Wharf refused to comment yesterday.

In the endeavor of providing pain free movement to all our hip patients, we have added a 4th dimension to hip replacement surgery.
Unlike knee replacement, during hip replacement surgery we need to work in depth, of ball & socket joint.
Correct placement of artificial socket requires 360 degree visions.
The 360 degree vision of the socket is usually difficult while operating from one side.
We have a team of highly qualified joint replacement surgeons during surgery standing on either side of patient so, 360 degree visualization of socket becomes possible.
This 4th dimension of high qualified team of 2 surgeons work for the 100% outcome of surgery.

This Escape the Classroom key was made from polymer clay and can easily be sculpted at home. It features a dragon in the top part of the key, and the key is a good prop for photo shoots or a ridiculously large pendant. However, it is quite fragile so I do not recommend wearing it as an actual pendant. Craft with caution.
What you need:
Step 1: Trace and Make the Tin Foil Base of the Giant Key
Start by tracing a picture of the key as big as you would like it to be on a piece of wax paper. This will be the template and is safe to bake. The sharpie also will not bleed through the wax paper. So make the core pieces out of tin foil for stability. Simply crush tinfoil up in the shape of the pieces but slightly smaller so the clay wraps securely around it.
Step 2: Polymer Clay Part
Once the foil parts are done, sculpt the clay around all the pieces, make the flat pieces in the middle and attach. For the base pieces, wrap the pieces in tin foil and use clay where needed to make the shapes. Make the unlocky part of the key by rolling some polymer clay about a quarter of an inch directly on the sharpie outline of it on the parchment. When you flip it over, it will have the outline that you can cut around with a boxcutter. Smooth any edges. Make sure the top part of the key will have a place to securely glue onto the top of the key base.
Sculpting the Top of the Giant Key
For the dragon in the middle of the key, I used the same method. Sculpt the dragon and then the rest of the giant key, attaching the dragon by the head, tail, and front paw to the rest of the key, all which must be sculpted directly on the wax paper. After the top of the key is sculpted, put the pieces all together in the oven at 275 F for about 15 minutes. Attach the cooled pieces with glue. Spray paint the key silver with spray paint for a lovely finish.

Smartphones are effectively miniature computers, so it should come as no surprise that smartphones are beginning to follow the same technology trajectory as computers. Computers used to be all about speed, and then number of processors became more important. Multiple core computers are now the norm.
Smartphones have already eclipsed the 1GHz mark for processor speed, so number of processing cores is quickly becoming the next differentiator. One of the first smartphones out with a dual core processor is the G2x on T-mobile. After getting a chance to play with one for a while, I can safely say that two processors are better than one.
The G2x is a T-mobile branded version of the LG Optimus 2x. It uses NVIDIA’s dual core Tegra processor running at 1GHz. While the specs on the outside are not that special or impressive, it’s what’s under the hood that make all the difference. Screen transitions and scrolling are much smoother than what I experience on my Nexus One, which is definitely beginning to show its age. Apps open and run very smooth, and the myriad of reviews on the web confirm it.
On top of the processing power, one other major advantage of the G2x is that it runs a generic version of Android’s Froyo OS (Version 2.2.2). I could almost convince myself that this is a more important feature than the dual core processor. The fact that T-mobile and LG did not clutter the Android experience with a custom designed UI makes a huge difference in the usability of the device. The limited Android customization should also make it easier (and faster) for T-mobile and LG to upgrade the device from Froyo to Android’s latest OS – Gingerbread. I wish more device manufacturers and carriers would take this approach.
As always, here’s a round up of a couple of reviews that would be worth reviewing to get a more in-depth review of the device and its features:
- Engadget – T-mobile G2x Review
- MobileCrunch – Review: T-mobile G2x (Optimus 2X)
- IntoMobile – REVIEW: T-mobile G2X Review – Android at its finest
The big question is should you get a G2x? If you’re a T-mobile user looking for a new phone today, I would recommend giving the G2x serious consideration. About the only drawback is its size. If you can get over that, and don’t need a keyboard, then the G2x is the best device you can buy on T-mobile today.
However, if you are not in a hurry, you may want to wait a couple of months for the dual core offerings from HTC and Samsung to hit T-mobile. The HTC Sensation is due out sometime in June with the Samsung Galaxy S2 following in July. Between the G2x, Sensation and Galaxy S2, your purchase decision could get really difficult on T-mobile with three excellent phones to choose from.
(By the way if you are looking at purchasing the device, watch for internet deals. Amazon has been known to offer the device for as low as $99 on contract)

Quest for Better Health Leads to a New Outlook on Life
Four years ago, Angelo Campanella was far from the picture of health he is today. Only 53 years old, he weighed close to 400 pounds and had a number of health issues, including diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and sleep apnea. “I made a lot of poor life choices over time and knew I needed to make some changes. But it wasn’t until I developed diabetic foot ulcers that wouldn’t heal that my journey really started,” Campanella says. “Diabetes can cause a lot of serious problems and foot ulcers are just one of them. It can also affect your heart health and your ability to lose weight,” explains Adline Ghazi, MD, director of the Diabetes Care Program at MedStar Good Samaritan Hospital, who Campanella sees for his diabetes.
Campanella was referred to the Hyperbaric Medicine and Wound Healing Center at MedStar Good Samaritan, but ended up needing surgery to effectively treat the ulcers. While recovering, his doctors noticed some abnormalities in his blood work that concerned them and ordered additional tests. They found heart disease so severe, they immediately admitted him to MedStar Union Memorial Hospital for cardiac bypass surgery.
After his bypass, Campanella started to take better care of himself. He enrolled in the cardiac rehabilitation program in the Good Health Center at MedStar Good Samaritan and his diabetes stabilized. But he couldn’t lose weight, which was hindering his efforts to manage his diabetes. He decided to look into weight loss surgery. At the suggestion of his doctors, he scheduled a consultation with Christopher You, MD, FACS, FASMBS, medical director of Minimally Invasive and Bariatric Surgery at MedStar Franklin Square Medical Center.
“In addition to being overweight, Angelo was on insulin and many other medications for his diabetes and other related health conditions. I recommended a gastric bypass, which would not only help him lose weight but could also reduce the severity of his diabetes,” Dr. You says. Gastric bypass surgery works by changing the anatomy of the gastrointestinal tract to limit the amount of food you can eat. The surgery also changes the absorption rate of food, which results in beneficial metabolic changes.
“When combined with a comprehensive treatment plan, bariatric surgery can be an effective tool for achieving long-term weight loss and a better quality of life. More importantly, it helps improve many obesity-related conditions, including type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease and more,” adds Dr. You.
Dr. You stresses that individuals considering bariatric surgery need to understand and be committed to the lifestyle changes required after surgery. “It’s important to remember that weight loss success depends on other factors too, such as nutrition, exercise and behavior modification. Angelo was committed to making the changes needed and was enthusiastic throughout the entire process,” says Dr. You.
Prior to the surgery, Campanella attended MedStar Franklin Square’s preoperative weight management program, dropping quite a bit of weight as a result. When he went in for the surgery in June 2015, he weighed around 330 pounds. The day after surgery, Campanella’s diabetes was in remission and he no longer needed multiple medications or daily injections.
He still sees Dr. Ghazi at MedStar Good Samaritan and is on medication for blood sugar maintenance. “Angelo had a lot of health problems for someone his age and his quality of life was not good. But, he truly wanted to get better and took charge. That really makes a difference,” Dr. Ghazi notes.
Today, Campanella is 100 pounds lighter and his former 56-inch waist is now just 36 inches. Healthier than ever, he frequently takes water aerobics classes at the Y, plays billiards with a number of Amateur Pool Player Association teams several nights a week, and enjoys walking his dog, Sahara, a couple of hours every day.
He is extremely grateful for the support he received during the past four years. “My parents, Vito and Laura, my brother, Pietro and my girlfriend, Marye, all took care of me and helped keep me motivated throughout this process. And my colleagues at Calvert Mechanical Solutions, where I have worked for 29 years, have been great. I was out a lot, especially after my foot and heart surgeries, and there was never any question that my job would be waiting for me,” he says.
He is also thankful for the compassionate care he received from the many healthcare providers at MedStar Health who helped him turn around his life. “This part of my journey—sharing my story—was never expected. I love talking to people who are on the fence about getting healthier, especially about gastric bypass,” Campanella adds. “I hope my experience encourages others who are struggling with health issues.”

A teenager is devastated after losing his phone contain the final pictures of his gran.
Tyler Robertson left the matte black iPhone 7 in the back of a taxi following a night out on New Year's Eve.
The 19-year-old climbed into the taxi, behind McDonald's in Smithy Street, South Shields, and headed home to Hebburn at about 3am, yesterday.
However, at 11.35pm on New Year's Eve Tyler's gran had passed away at home - just hours after he had snapped some final pictures wit her.
Mum Nicola Robertson, from Hebburn,is now offering a £100 reward if the phone can be found.
Nicola said: "He's absolutely devastated.
"He'd been to see his gran, who had been poorly for quite seem time, a bit earlier in the day and he took some picture of them together.
"She then sadly died a few hours later. His phone had ran out of battery and when in the taxi home he'd asked his girlfriend to keep it and it must have dropped on the floor.
"We're not bothered about the actual phone, it's the pictures we want and they weren;t backed up."

My co-writer, Kori Ellis, has been doing an incredible job sharing all the fabulous BCA month pinkness going on.
Well, I am about to share a little something from one of my favorite stores in the history of…forever.
Throughout the month of October, Frederick’s is offering their best-selling bra, the Hollywood Exxtreme Cleavage, in a Pink Ribbon style.
That means it’s, well, pink (obviously), but also 20% of the sales from this item will benefit Susan G. Komen for the Cure. For those of you who don’t follow this stuff – 20% is a huge number. And a lot more than a lot of other companies are donating!
Why I love this design: It has removable push-up pads for a little or a lot of cleavage plus a deep-plunge front with “X” charm. PLUS It makes my boobs look hot and is now in baby pink. The end.

Insight Acquires Treasure Chest
The purchase bulks up the number of Insight's motherboard offerings to about 20 from only three or four previously. Treasure Chest, meanwhile, is watching its offerings expand to about 50,000 products from 2,000 as a result of the deal. The two direct marketers have a customer overlap of only about 10 percent, and Treasure Chest's buyers have demonstrated a willingness to buy over the Web, said Stanley Laybourne, Insight's chief financial officer.
"If you look back nine, 12 months, 20 percent of (Treasure Chest's) sales have been unassisted Internet sales," Laybourne said. "So the customer that they're getting is a very technically savvy customer, and that's certainly something that's appealing to us simply because that is such a big focus of Insight. We believe e-commerce will definitely be a larger and larger portion of our business as soon as the business buyer adopts it more."
Analysts estimate the deal will become accretive to Insight in the second half of 1999. Treasure Chest had sales of $50 million in the 12 months ended July 31, while Insight's 12-month sales for the period ended June 30 were about $800 million.
Laybourne said Insight is looking at more acquisitions and the company's strategic focus is in the international arena, particularly Europe. In April, it closed its first acquisition, buying Choice Peripherals, a U.K. computer direct marketer whose sales were mostly consumer-oriented. A full 91 percent of Insight's revenue comes from business customers, including government and education, while 40 percent of Treasure Chest's sales are to businesses.
Insight reported revenue of $237 million in the second quarter of 1998, up 70 percent from the same period the year before. Earnings for the quarter were $4.7 million, a 59 percent improvement on the second quarter of 1997.

Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) are envisaged to extend Internet access and other networking services in personal, local, campus, and metropolitan areas. Mesh routers (MR) form the connectivity backbone while performing the dual tasks of packet forwarding as well as providing network access to the mesh clients. However, the performance of such networks is limited by traffic congestion, as only limited bandwidth is available for supporting the large number of nodes in close proximity. This problem can be alleviated by the cognitive radio paradigm that aims at devising spectrum sensing and management techniques, thereby allowing radios to intelligently locate and use frequencies other than those in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. These promising technologies are integrated in our proposed Cognitive Mesh NETwork (COMNET) algorithmic framework, thus realizing an intelligent frequency-shifting self-managed mesh network. The contribution of this paper is threefold: (1) A new approach for spectrum sensing is devised without any change to the working of existing de facto mesh protocols. (2) An analytical model is proposed that allows MRs to estimate the power in a given channel and location due to neighboring wireless LAN traffic, thus creating a virtual map in space and frequency domains. (3) These models are used to formulate the task of channel assignment within the mesh network as an optimization problem, which is solved in a decentralized manner. Our analytical models are validated through simulation study, and results reveal the benefits of load sharing by adopting unused frequencies for WMN traffic.

Co-founder and former VP of Strategic Engineering Kenton Forsythe has rejoined Eastern Acoustic Works (EAW).
"When I left three years ago, I took a year off and my wife and I worked on our 'honey do' list - and we're still working on that," laughs Forsythe. "But I want to make more speakers. A couple of years ago I started looking around but I didn't find the right situation. Then EAW president TJ Smith gave me a call. EAW is pursuing some advanced product development, and TJ asked me to contribute."
Known for his innovative designs, Forsythe's mid-1970s vintage BH215 dual 15-in. bass horn became the basis of some of EAW's earliest products. "When we started EAW, we kept on going with some of the designs we had used in our previous company, Forsythe Audio Systems," he relates. "We designed the CS-3 for Carlo Sound, an integration of the BH215 dual 15-in low-frequency horn with an MR102 12-inch mid-frequency horn and a Community BRH90 high-frequency horn in one big box. It probably was the world's first integrated, flyable touring rig."
But it was EAW's KF850 that really put the loudspeaker manufacturer on the map. "The KF850 was an outgrowth of those previous designs," explains Forsythe. "It was a very good cabinet for its day and was time coherent throughout it's full range. The KF850 helped us develop a lot of traction. It was the standard for tours for quite awhile, and it got us into the install world."
Although Forsythe is not returning full-time -- "I don't want to work that hard," he quips -- he is back in his element. "I kind of reclaimed my role as the transducer guru," he explains. "Our head of engineering, Geoff McKinnon, is excellent, and he provides the leadership and vision. I collaborate with suppliers on component designs as well as new product development concepts, working with and under Geoff and Director of Product Management Jeremy Forsythe."
Forsythe notes that EAW's current ownership brings benefits not available to the company in the past. "Now we're owned by Arturo Vicari, who also owns RCF and db Technologies, which opens a new toolkit," he says. "We operate independently but are part of a group of companies, and the technology can be shared amongst the groups. RCF also has really good components that are now available to us. So we have resources we didn't have previously."
As an EAW co-founder, Forsythe links the company with its past, but his return is about the future. "We're not getting the team back together," he clarifies. "We are assembling a new group of much younger people who have the energy and the passion that we brought to it 30 or 40 years ago. We're trying the stretch the boundaries of what can be done with the technology, and we're working on new products that are going to knock your socks off."

Although a dizzying array of fancy point-of-sale systems are now available, many small natural foods retailers still cling to their old registers and tape.
Taking the plunge and moving into a world of scanners and databases can be daunting. Plus, health food retailers are a pretty skeptical lot when it comes to new technology.
?I?m still waiting to see what the ideal system is,? said Joe Wallen, owner of For Goodness Sake in Naples, Fla. Wallen would like to buy a POS system by this summer and has looked at offerings from ECR Software of Boone, N.C., and other vendors. But he remains dubious about many of the sales pitches he hears. One of his three stores already has an older scanning system and it ?seems to require more labor,? Wallen said.
Small retailers with one or two checkout lanes and less than 2,000 square feet of store space are hard-pressed to lay out $20,000 to $30,000 for a high-end POS system. Old-fashioned registers work just fine, many of them say.
Except they really don?t. Even basic point-of-sale systems offer quicker checkout, better sales tracking and inventory management, fewer pricing mistakes and, perhaps most importantly, a broad spectrum of financial data and reports that help merchants run their stores more efficiently. A growing number of health food retailers want to jump aboard. Betsy Perkins, manager of Amazing Grains in Grand Forks, N.D., particularly wants better accuracy and data collection. ?We?re a co-op. It would help us keep track of merchandise sales and calculate rebates.? Perkins is looking at the books and could buy a POS system by the end of the year.
Several companies offer POS systems tailored to naturals stores? unique needs and vendors. Lewisville, Texas-based OrderDog Inc. launched its iPOS point-of-sale system in March at Natural Products Expo West. Living Naturally of Venice, Fla., integrates its ScanGenius databases into new or existing POS solutions.
Chris Cohen, assistant manager of the Fort Collins Food Co-op in Fort Collins, Colo., has been looking at different POS vendors, but finds most are selling flashier and more expensive systems than she wants. Currently, the co-op is considering a trimmed-down system from a small Winona, Minn.-based company called CoPOS, which specializes in POS packages for natural foods co-ops.
According to CoPOS President Ken Geiger, the revenue tipping point for a POS system has historically been about $2 million in sales per year. But he?s successfully selling to retailers with only $180,000 in annual sales.
The key is cost. Geiger sells a one-lane system for about $7,000 and a two-lane configuration for $12,000. ?We?re struggling to meet the demand; we?ve had a very good response,? Geiger said. The CoPOS system tracks purchases by co-op members, handles special orders and accepts sales paid by gift certificate, Geiger said. Geiger?s system also has an automatic inventory option, but most of his customers don?t use it. ?We find, generally speaking, that [automatic] inventories in small stores are redundant,? he said. That?s because these merchants already know when they need more pickles or pasta. Gayle Cupit, general manager of MOM?s Co-op in Cambridge, Minn., bought Geiger?s system and said it?s working well so far. ?I wanted more accurate financial information about products we were selling,? she said.
Cupit looked at several larger POS vendors, but the price was considerably higher at $16,000 to $20,000. And the platforms weren?t designed specifically for co-ops. ?They would have required too much changing,? Cupit said.
Big POS vendors are well aware of the small grocery store market. Many currently offer trimmed-down versions of their large platforms. ?Guys at that end of the market need something easy to install and operate,? said Mike Lyden, solutions sales specialist for NCR Corp. of Dayton, Ohio, which offers a two-lane POS configuration called ScanMaster for $5,000 to $7,500.
ECR Software also focuses on small health food merchandisers, but sales manager Geoff Robinson said it can be a tough sell: ?A lot of natural products store owners tend to be technophobes. They?re scared to death, so you better give them a simple system.?
ECR?s POS system for small retailers runs between $12,000 and $15,000 and includes all hardware and software, scale/scanner, credit card reader and printer. Robinson said most of his customers lease a system for $300 to $400 per month. ?After five years, you own it,? he added.
Enter the complex question of return on investment. Most health food merchandisers know a POS system can save money, but they?re not exactly sure how—or how to figure it out. South Windsor, Conn., systems consultant Dick Calio said the general rule holds that a POS system can add between 3 percent and 4 percent to the bottom line.
Eliminating pricing mistakes is a primary money saver, Calio said. But even more important is knowing how to use to your advantage the data generated by a POS platform. ?The goal is for a retailer to look at only critical data and to drill down when a problem is indicated,? he said.
Three key indicators are most important to track, Calio said.
Cash control. ?This is the quickest return you will get from your POS,? said Calio. ?In addition to better cash control and cash drawer reconciliation, the following controls will in be place: pricing accuracy, voids and no-sales by clerk, and an audit trail on all discounts by clerk.?
Gross margin management. ?The erosion of gross margin is the silent killer of profit,? Calio said. ?You need to run a report daily that shows your target gross margin percent by department, and the actual gross margin percent attained from sales.?
Inventory turn. According to Calio, excess inventory results in profit erosion. The primary problems are higher carry costs and lower gross margin, since older inventory has to be marked down or put on sale.
Cupit isn?t inclined to do all the math to calculate MOM?s Co-ops return on investment. ?I know I have better member and financial information. It?s already paid for itself,? she said.
Randy Barrett is president of Business Writers Group in Falls Church, Va.

Former world number one Andy Murray has reportedly pulled out of the French Open in order to focus on Wimbledon.
The three-time Grand Slam winner was initially expected to skip the entire clay court season before accepting a wildcard entry into the Madrid Open earlier this month.
A positive start to the tournament saw Murray eliminate Dominic Thiem and Denis Shapovalov before a proposed third-round meeting with Novak Djokovic.
However, the 35-year-old contracted food poisoning and was forced to withdraw from the clash with the world number one, and he was scheduled to compete at Roland Garros.
Now, Sky Sports News reports that Murray will no longer compete at the Grand Slam event and is instead focusing his preparations on the grass court season.
Murray has not competed in the French Open since a first-round elimination in 2020, while his 2021 run at Wimbledon ended in the third round.
All in all, the Scot has posted 12 wins and eight defeats from 20 matches in the 2022 season and now occupies 69th place in the world rankings.

Last year my One Word was the word hope. I shared in that blog post that 2015 had been an extremely difficult year. So it’s not surprising 2016 began with us still climbing out of the difficulty.
And God is faithful.
He worked in 2016. Sometimes in totally unexpected ways.
Wounds remained from the previous year, yet they were being healed. Even now there are days that my family feels the effects of the wounds and the healing. It’s a hard process, yet I’ve come to accept the hard process is the refining process and it is a good thing.
I didn’t blog much in 2016. Instead, I allowed myself to be vulnerable to a few trusted women, and they walked with me during the difficulty in truth and love. I continued to seek personal Godly counsel for myself. I recognized areas in my life where I needed to grow, where I needed to turn away from sin, and where I needed to forgive.
Then as 2016 continued, and the healing, I traveled. I spent some wonderful time with family and strengthened relationships. I started to find deeper peace and contentment. After being away from home for nearly a month, I looked forward to returning. God was at work. He spoke into some of my fears, He stirred my heart to recognize and appreciate what He has provided me with at home, and He gave me back my voice that I had somehow started to lose along the way. As the year went on, I continued to feel closer and closer to God and Jesus.
I know one of the reasons for this was I was consistently in His Word. Last year for the first time, I read my Bible cover to cover. I eventually ended up using the Quieting Your Heart: 6 Month Bible Study Journal to help me really chew on what I was reading. I used up two of them over the course of the year. The daily habit of reflecting on God’s character, being intentionally thankful, and prayerfully asking what He was teaching me/revealing to me through His word was a blessing I can’t put into words. I realize now the necessity for a Believer to dig into God’s word personally. Not just in a class, not always with a group of people, and certainly not just at church on Sundays.
And because my word for the year was hope, it meant every day I was eagerly searching for hope in His word. I have come to believe that hope is not an emotional feeling. Hope is much deeper than that. It’s a reality. It’s a truth. A promise. It’s something I can rest securely in, even in the midst of a difficult trial. There are so many four letter words that try to destroy our hope. Fear, Loss, Need, Hurt, Pain. My heavenly Father was slowly and lovingly teaching me that in the midst of those words, I could trust Him. I could still place my hope in Him and Him alone. When everything around me fails, He is unfailing love.
I’m thankful to say that by the end of 2016, we had grown as a family. Our difficult days have become difficult moments. There is more laughter. More peace. It’s not because of us, it’s because of the One who has lifted us up as we have submitted ourselves to Him.
With hope in my heart, I prayerfully considered my word for 2017.
This year I am looking to focus.
To focus on where and how God wants me to serve my immediate family, my church family, and others.
To focus on my dream to write a book from start to finish.
To focus on His Word daily, to continue the habit of personally meeting with Him.
To focus on preparing my nest as my son is a sophomore in high school, and in a few short years my husband and I will have the house to ourselves.
To focus on my health and wellness, and continue to put into practice truths God revealed to me through my Made to Crave journey.
To focus on blogging where I feel inspiration to share, because I believe God has given me a gift of writing, and I want to use it to encourage others, even if I never know who or how I’m encouraging.
Here is to 2017 Friends.

[CEATEC] Rohm's LED Lighting Panel Superior to OLED Lamps
Rohm Co Ltd exhibited a planer LED lighting panel using LED packages with a high color rendering index at CEATEC JAPAN 2012, which runs from Oct 2 to 6, 2012, in Chiba Prefecture, Japan.
The panel was made by arranging LED packages on a plane surface and covering them with a light diffusion plate. It emits light from the entire surface of the panel like an OLED lighting panel. By using its fluorescent material technologies, Rohm realized a general color rendering index (Ra) as high as 98 and prevented the sulfuration of lead frame, which lowers color rendering index.
In general, silver plating of an LED package's lead frame, on which an LED chip is mounted, is reacted with hydrogen sulfide contained in the air coming through the package material and blackened, gradually lowering color rendering index. The LED package developed by Rohm has a white resin layer that reflects light between the package material and lead frame to prevent the sulfuration.
Rohm also realized a high heat resistance and a product life of 50,000 hours (the time it takes for the light flux to lower by 30%) at a temperature of 110°C. For the lighting panel, the company employed a special LED. And the panel is superior to OLED lighting apparatuses in terms of cost and luminous efficiency, it said. The luminous efficiency of the panel was not disclosed.
Though Rohm has not yet decided when to commercialize the panel, it said that the technologies necessary to realize the panel have almost been completed and that the company will discuss the commercialization with Agled Co Ltd, its subsidiary.

Ever since my birthday last month, when I found out TBND and I would be going to NYC, I’ve been compiling a list of places to see and food to eat.
We haven’t had a second to look at potential travel dates, life has been a little too busy lately, and with other travel plans now in the pipeline we’ll need to see just exactly where we can fit this trip in. First world problems, huh?
The lack of departure date, however, hasn’t stopped me from compiling my list for when we do touch down at JFK. My iPhone Notes app is filling up with lots of spots to take TBND to once we get there!
I’ve noted down some of my favourite spots, and researched a number of new ones that I’m so excited to visit.
I thought I would share my list with you, and of course, I would love any recommendations if you have something we simply MUST see, eat, or do.
Ideally we will stay around the Meatpacking District/West Village area (where the photo above was taken on my last visit!) I love this area, with its cobbled streets and village feel, not to mention the great restaurants, markets and boutiques.
So here it is, minus the obvious stuff i.e. Empire State Building etc!
FIKA NYC, a chocolate factory and coffee shop all rolled in to one (various locations)
Jacques Torres Chocolates (Tribeca)
Jacques Torres Ice Cream Store (Brooklyn)
Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory (Brooklyn)
Chobani Greek Yogurt Store (Soho)
Crumbs Bake Shop (various locations)
Serendipity III (Midtown East)
Big Gay Ice Cream (West Village)
Rice to Riches (Nolita)
Bagel Works (Upper East Side)
Norma’s @ Le Parker Meridien (Midtown)
Blockheads (Various locations)
Mariella Pizza (Midtown)
La Esquina (Soho)
Gotham West Market
230 Fifth (below Midtown)
Please Don’t Tell (PDT) (Lower East Side)
The Garret (West Village)
Highline (Meatpacking to 34th Street)
There is SO much to see in NYC, and I’ve been lucky enough to see so much of it already, but TBND will be taking his first ever trip there, so I intend on power walking around the city pointing out where I once lived, where I’ve stayed in hotels, my favourite shops and sights. There will never be enough time to show him everything and to create new memories, but that’s the beauty of NYC, you can never say goodbye, just see you soon!

To become a Bitcoin miner, you need a mining system. You can purchase a pre-built rig. However, they may cost more than a custom assembled mining rig.
How to Start
The whole mining system can be noisy, build up a lot of heat, and needs to operate 24/7. A Bitcoin mining operation is quite an extreme environment to be working in. An open-air frame is necessary for the ventilation of the GPU. You need to ensure that your GPU can breathe. You need to replace burned-out cards, clear the dust, and perform various other maintenance so that your components stay in working condition. Building your mining rig is no different from building a gaming pc. If you make it yourself, you may know how to maintain and service the hardware if anything goes wrong. If you do not have the time to build one, you can always go for a pre-build.
The pre-built mining rigs may come with a maximum of 2 GPUs, whereas custom-built rigs can contain many more GPUs than that. A new or used mining rig costs a couple of thousand dollars. Buying a used mining rig would give you a GPU that has been worn out already and has a minimal lifespan on it.
What to prepare before building mining rigs?
The rig requires just a basic Windows OS and some mining software, to begin with. Once you have selected the casing for your mining rig, you can start looking for the motherboard. You don't need a top-of-the-line motherboard for your mining rig. The main goal is that it should be able to accommodate the maximum number of GPUs.
These MOBOs should also be customizable. You check out the motherboards made by Asus, MSI, or Gigabyte. Once you have found these components, it's time to select the CPU. You will require a modern multi-core CPU with 4-8 GB of RAM. You don't have to overclock the CPU to bring out more performance by compromising stability. The basic Intel CPUs such as Celeron or Pentium will suffice.
Which GPU to Buy?
People often purchase AMD or Nvidia GPUs for mining individuals or participating in a mining pool. You may also find good deals for six-packs or even older models, which will still get the job done, even when contributing to mining pools.
For a mining rig, you need at least a 1000W power supply and a strong internet connection. It would help if you had a gold-rated mining power supply as these mining systems run at high loads 24/7. This can vastly increase the electricity bill! For a more extensive mining system, you can couple two power supplies.
After all the expensive GPUs and high wattage power supplies, you can save some dollars for storage and RAM. An 8GB RAM is recommended for a PC running Windows operating system; however, you can do with a 4GB. Just remember, if you have low power rates, or spare parts lying around, you can easily set up a mining system for a little or no additional cost without breaking your bank account.
Thanks to the Bitcoin market's volatility, you may take longer to break even for the mining setup. If you ever do begin mining, our advice is not to invest more than you can afford to lose. Also, do not even think about breaking even in just a couple of months.
It would be best to keep in mind the difficulty of mining a block of Bitcoin in today's world. If you have some hardware lying around, you can give it a try!

What Makes Education So Pinteresting? String the words “social” and “media” together in a sentence when talking with most educators and the conversation inevitably turns to the Big Three: Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.
As teachers weigh the value of social networking in classrooms, several emerging tools have also begun to pique educators’ interest — or, dare I say, Pinterest? By now, you’ve no doubt heard about the online bulletin board that lets people post and share notes, pictures, infographics and other media with the network’s base of more than 10 million users. A recent report on technology news site TechCrunch says the majority of those users are women, many in the coveted 18–34 age bracket, which could explain the massive valuations pinned to the company’s rising fortunes — Forbes recently estimated Pinterest’s value at more than $7 billion.

Some of these can be found here: In addition to these websites there is also much more that can be found on YouTube, in blogs and by searching for 'QR Codes Classroom'.
Initially, we only made use of QR Codes and made them using Kaywa. This was good as it allowed easier access to a URL through either an application on a mobile device or a desktop QR Code reader.

Our Library Project was a global inquiry that essentially “fell into our lap” and took on a life of its own because we allowed our children to wonder, to clarify, and to ask further questions after participating in a Video Conference experience to “enhance” our understanding of the customs and culture in Peru. What we thought would be a “one time only” has grown into an amazing partnership with our Grade Threes and this organization – working to build a library in a small rural weaving village – Q’enqo Peru.

Your students may routinely write their names on the board -- branding themselves as troublemakers on the verge of doom. Subscribers of assertive discipline allow their students to think they are part of creating the discipline system -- a subtle manipulation. Teachers in these classrooms may be caught lavishing praise on the do-gooders and giving gentle reminders of punishments to the offenders. In a classroom based on results-only, there are no posted rules, and there is no praise when Sally brings her materials or Johnny comes to class on time.

Madame Marissa realized she was in a fix and she wanted a solution to it. She had to get it fast or she was going to get fired for the mistake she had done. She knew only one person who could help her out. But when she tried talking to him, he refused. She was so angry and she did not have any other way to go about it so she trampled him using her high heels and forced him to help her.

I was fishing at a local lake called Boundary Water Park at the time when I first met an old friendly chap who went by the name of Barry Big Tent. I would spend every hour I could down at the lake fishing or walking round talking to the lads fishing. I was still at school at the time so most of the holidays were spent practically living at the lake. My Gran used to work in the little shop on site at the time so the owner of the lake very rarely used to charge me the £4 a day for the fishing, and the constant free hot pies and fresh sandwiches my Gran would send me on my way with made spending time there a lot easier.
I had come to get to know Barry quite well over a few meetings and he was the sort of bloke who would tell you all kinds of Carpy stories for hours on end and only being fourteen years old and as keen as ever I was more than happy to listen and question him. Some of his tales were about Redesmere and the more he would tell me the more I would get this strange buzz about the place. I had only ever read about the Mere in articles and the thought of fishing there at the time was in a way ‘scary’.
The Mere was regarded as one of the top waters in the North West and with fish such as The Male a onetime Cheshire record Common, the Snub, Single Scale, Ring Tail, Pretty One to name a few swimming around in there, I could see why. I remember reading an article in Carpword written by Martin Alerton and seeing a picture of the Snub Nosed Common for the first time. I suppose that was the first Carp that I ever really saw a picture of and thought instantly “I have got to catch that fish”. The more I thought about getting a ticket the more I thought why not. Barry had talked about going back on there the follow season and had agreed to watch me over night. The rules were that junior anglers were not allowed to night fish unless supervised by another member over the age of eighteen, and not being old enough for an adult ticket and unable to night fish on my own the thought of doing weekends on the Mere with Barry became quite appealing.
As it goes the following season was to be the start of my time on the Mere. I can clearly remember setting up on the meadow bank on the 16th of June for my very first session; the buzz of just being there was something I will never forget. I was well and truly under the Mere’s spell after only a few trips and the hunt for the Snub had begun. There was a good stock of big fish in the Mere at the time with around fifteen over thirty pounds at the right time of the year and although I knew I would be fishing there for years to come and until I had managed to tick most of the A team off the list there was just something special to me about the Snub and I just knew I would be fishing there until I caught her.
That first season on the Mere I only managed to catch one fish and lose a couple but the one I did land was a capture I will never forget. The fish was a classic Mere looking fish with huge Pecs and a big love heart tail. It came at the end of October, so the lake didn’t half make me wait for my first one. The following season I was older enough to night fish on my own and being able to get around the lake more and fish on my own which was a lot better, although Barry was great company I knew it was costing me fish not being able to move and do my own angling. That season I managed to catch five fish with the biggest being a 26.12 mirror, I had learnt a lot in the first two seasons on the Mere as I was fishing amongst some of the best anglers around and soon it was all starting to become much simpler. I suppose you could say I had started to learn the lake and the habits of the Carp.
The third season on there was my best, I had just finished my exams at school and once school was finished I fished the rest of the year full time. I ended up catching twenty nine fish that season ending up top rod by fourteen or so fish as well as catching my first thirty pounder a fish known as The Pretty One at a weight of 32lb 4oz. I was loving the fishing on there and was sure that if I kept at it then the Snub would eventually find its self in the folds of my net.
The first time I was to see my obsession on the bank was when a good friend of mine, Neal caught it. I was sat with him chatting away when I saw a huge common bosh out right out over one of his rods, just after I told him the rod ripped off and soon had a low twenty mirror in the net, “Nice Common that mate” was his reply. After he recast the rod ten minutes went by before the same rod was away again. This time he must of been able to tell it was a goodun as he asked me to get my chesties on and grab the net, as it rolled over the net cord, I couldn’t help but say “told ya I saw a big common”. It turned out to be the Snub and at a weight of 34lb 12oz, she looked as impressive as I had always imagined her to look, a real thick wristed fish with big sovereign like gold scales.
I ended up fishing hard on the Mere for the next three seasons obsessed with catching the Snub but she just eluded me. I saw some of my good mates catch her some more than once – It was as if I wanted to catch her too much. I had caught lots of fish during my five years on the Mere and honestly thought I was never going to catch her. I had known about a small water near Stoke homing a rather large common that I wanted to have a go for, so I decided that if the Snub came out then I would spend a bit of time over there.
In the late summer of 2007 she was to make some angler very happy, and that saw the start of my campaign for the Dale Common. I ended up getting well into the fishing over there and spent the rest of that season trying to catch the tricky common. I renewed my ticket for the Mere in the January as always as I had planned to have another go in the spring. I remember a fish getting caught during mid December out of the Oak swim on the meadow bank and then three getting caught out of the same swim sometime through January.
Winter fish on the Mere are very rare to say the least. Out of all my time on there you could count on one hand how many fish were caught between the months of November through until March. I had started to make a few trips up there just walking about to see who was getting up there and who was having a go etc, I couldn’t believe how quiet the place was, apart from the odd lad having a go over the weekend, mid week the place was often empty. I had put a plan together that I would bait a spot at range out of the Oak swim, as it was clear there were a few fish spending time around that area. I baited the spot three times a week with around two kilos of hemp a pound of whole and chopped ten millers and a few pints of red maggots for two weeks before I did my first session around the second week in February. One of my good friends, Woddo was up for having a go through the winter and we both went on for our first session of the year. I settled in the Oak swim and fished two rods on the baited area, both were on stiff links as the Snubs track record for getting caught on stiffer hook links was too much to ignore, it must of been the shape of her mouth that made it easy for her deal with anglers rigs without making many mistakes. It was rare she would make more than two visits to the bank a year and it was not unknown for her to elude capture all together throughout a whole season.
That first session I managed to catch five Bream, so it was clear the bait was getting eaten. I decided to bait up two days before my next session which was to be the following week, upping the amount of bait to double the usual amount. On my next session down I managed to get back in the Oak swim for a two nighter and once again Woddo joined me and set up in the next swim know as the High Bank. That first night was a cold one with the temperature dropping below zero, another snotter hung its self in the early hours of the morning and the rod was wacked back out the spot in the dark.
At first light I clearly remember checking the lines to see if the recast had fallen on the right line witch it hadn’t, so I wound the rod in, touched the hook point up with the file, tied a fresh hook bait on and recast it back on the spot. I was sitting in Wodos swim drinking tea in a bid to warm up only ten or so minutes after recasting the rod when a few bleeps from that rod caught my attention. As I made my way over to my rods the bobbin was ever so slowly dropping back, my first thoughts before picking the rod up was ‘Bloody Bream’ but as I lifted in to the fish it started kiting quickly to my right on a tight line. It was clear I was into a Carp and Wodo was soon next to me in the water with the net, the hooked fish kept going on powerful lunges close to the net and I clearly remember seeing a huge common roll over on the surface before going on another of its runs. My heart was racing as I had a good ideawhat was on the other end, and every time the line would ping of its pecs my heart would miss a beat. Soon the fish was wallowing in front of the net and Wodo scooped her in first attempt. He looked at me and said, ‘It’s her son, it’s the Snub’.
It was a strange feeling, all them years after her and she was finally mine, I just couldn’t stop staring at her in the net and saying to Wods, “It’s the Snub Iv’e caught the bloody Snub.” She looked awesome on the mat in her winter coat and we soon had her up on the rubons with a recorded weight of thirty seven pounds four ounces. After the pics were done, I carried her to the water for a few more shots and watched her waddle away, punching the air with a big cheer as she did so. All that time the lake made me wait before it was my time to catch her only made the moment the more special, the strange thing was though I caught her two weeks later from the other end of the lake, a pound or so smaller that the first time, but utter madness. Five years trying to catch her and then to go and catch her twice in two weeks in winter, crazy. Single Scale the big mirror in there was another I dearly wanted to catch and once news came that a friend of mine had caught her the following week, I returned to the Dale to try my luck once again at tracking down what was to become another obsession!

TOP TV is a Christian television station dedicated to spreading the glory of God not only in Uganda but to the entire world. We are determined to:
- Instill morals in the society
- Create awareness socially, politically, economically and spiritually
- Promote young people’s talents, e.g., music, dance and drama
- Give television value versus showing pornography, teaching violence, immorality, etc.
By 1999, there were four television stations in Uganda. TOP TV came into the limelight in mid 2002 with the goal of giving a positive face to television. Parents shouldn’t have to worry about what their children watch on television when the parents can’t be there every minute to control what their children are viewing.
TOP TV is part of Christian Life Ministries. Jackson Senyonga is the Managing Director of TOP TV as well as Senior Pastor of Christian Life Church and founder of Christian Life Ministries (CLM).
The station started in 2000 without live broadcasting studios. At that time, only pre-recorded materials (programs) were broadcasted from our transmitter station in Kololo (a section of Kampala).
Now, our station is equipped with state-of-the-art broadcasting technology. Our multi-use studios make it possible for local artists to record music videos and television dramas. We ensure that such recordings and programs are morally sound.
TOP TV transmits its interactive and non-interactive programs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to various parts of Uganda from our broadcasting base in Kampala.
TOP TV Statistics:
- Year of Establishment: 2000
- Broadcasting Via: Satellite and Air
- Broadcasting Standards: PAL
- Hours per day: 24 hours
- Ownership: 100% Christian Life Ministries
- Coverage: 70% of the country
- Broadcasting Language: Luganda, English and Swahili
- Program Sources: 85% in-house, 15% foreign
- Other Sources: Skynet TV, DW, Wonderful and CNN
Our audience is comprised of people from all ages and various races. TOP TV does not discriminate against age or race. Therefore it’s the only station in the country where there are no parental guidance programs.
Most families have chosen TOP TV as their station of choice due to our dynamic programs that are educational, informative, empowering and entertaining.
Mr. and Mrs. Kyambadde of Bunga Fashions Wear say that TOP TV is the only television station where you can sit and watch with the children and never be embarrassed by anything.
Mrs. Mulira of Muyenga says that TOP TV has not only helped her, but has taught her entire family how to pray, through the “Pray Uganda Program,” as well as how to fight their spiritual battles effectively.
People have learned a lot by watching programs aired on TOP TV. Many people now know how to look after their health through family health programs which tackle health related issues, such as malaria prevention, looking after pregnant women, and good nutrition. As a result, the mortality rate has been reduced, miscarriages have been reduced, and hygiene has greatly improved in families.
TOP TV has created new employment opportunities. The families of TOP TV employees are enjoying a better economic lifestyle.
We believe that our positive programming has helped the moral climate of the nation and results in the reduction of crimes such as rape, murder, theft, robbery and other related activities.
Becoming more spiritually wise, many people have learned how to fight their spiritual battles, how to live for God, how to raise God-fearing families and finally, how to build a nation that is God-fearing.
TOP (Tower of Praise) Radio, is a non-profit company founded in Uganda, East Africa, on Bible based principles by Pastor Jackson Senyonga and his wife Eve in April 1998.

Sermons on Evangelism
A message looking at the challenges and opportunities for the church today. Scripture passages: 1 Corinthians 1: 18 and Matthew 4: 17-22.
In this message Rev Leo attempts to explain the ascension of Jesus…not the physical reality, but the spiritual truth. The message is based on Luke 24: 44-53 and Acts 1: 1-11.
Commissioned…every member a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The church gathered is also to be the church scattered. This message was prepared for the commissioning of the leadership team, but, having previously noted that every member is called to ministry, this message engages the whole church in considering their calling. The passage under-girding the message is Romans 12: 1-18.
Fearfully and wonderfully made, but in essence still jars of clay. This message is about recognizing our worth, but also realizing that our witness as believers is to point to God.

How much harm could Hurricane Irene do? It depends largely, of course, on the storm's winds and rain where it makes landfall, but emergency managers warn that the tides could make a tremendous difference as well.
There is a new moon on Sunday evening -- and the storm track, as currently forecast by NOAA, will take Irene on Sunday over the major population centers around Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York City and into New England. A new moon means tides, shifting rhythmically, could be especially high during the daytime this weekend as the moon with its gravity passes overhead.
That could add to the 10-foot predicted storm surge -- the bulge of water a storm pushes out of its way as it churns over open ocean.
"An extremely dangerous storm surge will raise water levels by as much as seven to 11 feet above normal tide levels over the Bahamas," said the National Hurricane Center in a morning advisory. "Near the coast, the surge will be accompanied by large and dangerous waves."
Historically, NOAA warns, people do not die in hurricanes as they hit; instead, the most deaths happen when people come out after the storm has passed and try to make their way through floodwaters.
Dare County, N.C., which includes the Outer Banks, has ordered a total evacuation starting at 8 a.m. Friday. Visitors to the area -- and this is peak vacation time -- were already told to leave starting this morning. All told, 180,000 people there are being ordered to move inland.
County officials, according to ABC News' Matt Gutman, said they were "extremely concerned, telling us that on its current track, Irene is a bigger threat than any other storm in memory."
Virginia's Gov. Bob McDonnell declared a state of emergency as a "precautionary measure," making it easier to get emergency personnel into position. Other states from South Carolina to New England did the same.
"It is imperative that, in an abundance of caution, all Virginians, state agencies and localities prepare for this storm," McDonnell said.
And officials in the Northeast got ready too. The center line of the hurricane center's projected path takes the storm right over New York City on Sunday, though that could change as it comes closer.
"By the time Irene gets to us, which it is forecast to do sometime on Sunday, it certainly will still be a powerful storm," said New York's Mayor Michael Bloomberg today, "but anything can happen in terms of its direction and its severity."
He urged people to check whether they live in hurricane evacuation zones (New Yorkers can click HERE to find out). And he suggested people stock up on supplies and make a "Go Bag," with drinking water, a first-aid kit, flashlight, medications and other essentials if they must leave on short notice.

Church to host mental health art exhibition
PUBLISHED: 10:12 29 September 2018 | UPDATED: 10:12 29 September 2018
Mental health is the focus of an exhibition at Great Yarmouth Minster as artwork by service users, volunteers and staff at Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust (NSFT) go on display.
Journeying With Hope is the brainchild of NSFT chaplain Julie Warren and Anna Heydon, development worker at Imagine Norfolk Together.
It aims to promote the benefits of creative expression along the path of recovery and mental wellbeing.
The artwork, which will be on display from Friday, October 5 to Saturday, October 6 between 9.30am and 4pm, includes inventive, thought-provoking and inspiring paintings, drawings, photographs, verse, music and a table collage of encouraging words and images.
Natasha Reynolds is one of the many service users across the trust who have contributed to the exhibition.
She said: “It helps me to bring out what I feel inside. I love art. I’ve loved art since I was 11. My grandad taught me how to paint and I have been painting ever since.
“I had a breakdown when nan and mum died and I gave up everything, including my art, but dad encouraged me to get back into it and it’s been a big part of my getting well again.
“If your mood’s low, doing art lifts your mood and lights up your day. It’s something to concentrate on and helps me to cope with problems. It’s very relaxing.”
Staff and volunteers in the trust’s spiritual and pastoral care team have been supporting service users in expressing their creativity.
Imagine Norfolk Together is a partnership between the Diocese of Norwich and the Church Urban Fund.
Rev Simon Ward, team rector at the Minster, said: “We’re delighted to welcome Journeying With Hope to the Minster.
“So many people in our community struggle with issues of mental wellbeing and it’s vital to highlight this and explore the part art can play in supporting people. I have seen first-hand how important art can be to help people express feelings which they struggle to put into words.”
John Dashwood, who designed the stained-glass windows of The Haven, formerly called The Chapel, at NSFT’s Hellesdon Hospital, was also commissioned to do work at Great Yarmouth Minster.

After 8 years Alienskin Magazine is closing. Alienskin bought my little short story A HOME TO DIE FOR. With them gone and I’m not a big enough name to have magazines give me money for reprints I will give my little story a home here. I hope you enjoy it:
A Home to Die For.
By Darrell B. Nelson
I’d like to show you my humble home.
I’m sure you notice the gorgeous redwood floors, Those are actually 80 year old oak floors that I stained with human blood. The wood was dry enough to soak up the blood nicely and then I just had to varnish them.
I can see from your expression that you are amazed, and I do admit it was a lot of work but well worth it.
I also made the couch myself, I had to learn to make my own leather. Human flesh is tough to work with but after a few botched skins I learned to make it. And I think that handcrafted charm gives the room just the right touch.
Have a seat, the padding is made out of human hair and it is amazingly comfortable.
I see you’re shaking your head no. I guess with your hands tied behind your back it would be hard to sit comfortably.
Coming into the kitchen, I’d like to point out the grout work. Those flakes you see in the grout I made myself out of human bones. It’s a tough process grinding up a person’s bones to a uniform small size but in the end, the satisfaction of creating a truly unique floor is well worth it.
As an added bonus, what I couldn’t use on the floor makes a great soil enhancer. You wouldn’t believe the size of the tomatoes I grew in the soil where I dumped the left over bone dust.
Of course I have to use a gentle soap to keep it looking nice.
I make my own. Human fat makes such a wonderful soap.
On the table there you can see my soup bowl collection. I could have gone out and bought a set, but that seemed too impersonal. I hand crafted each one out of human skulls, It’s quite a process sanding and polishing the skulls, but I feel the food tastes so much better out of a bowl I made myself than out of some cheap bowl made in China.
Although the raw materials from one did originally come from China, I think that’s where she was from anyway.
Of course the set wouldn’t be complete without the silverware. I polished and shaped each handle from the hand bones of the owner of the skull, it’s a small detail but I believe it’s the attention to the little things that lift good design into a work of art.
Wouldn’t you agree?
I can see by your wide eyed stare that you are trying to take it all in, I’ll take that as a compliment.
In keeping with the theme, if you notice the frame of the chalkboard there, the flakes of texture are the left over fingernails, I dipped them in fingernail polish before gluing them on, which I think is a nice touch.
I do have to make a small confession here, I cheated on the glue. At first I tried to make my own glue from finger and toenails but I found that was a lot tougher than you’d think.
That wasn’t the only thing that didn’t go exactly as planned, of course.
I wanted to replace the plumbing with bones. I figured cleaning out the marrow from the bones would make a nice replacement for pipes, but I never managed to get them to form a watertight seal. I just ended up making a big mess.
I can see the thought of a mess terrifies you, but don’t worry it wasn’t that bad. Nothing a good mopping couldn’t take care of.
I must apologize, all this talking has left me a little thirsty, do you mind if I pour myself some wine. I’d offer you some but that would involve taking the gag out of your mouth.
Oh, do you like my Bota Bag for the wine. It’s made from the human stomach. It doesn’t really hold enough to be practical but since I’m not a heavy drinker I can sacrifice a little convenience for style. And I think the added layer of formality enhances the flavor.
I can see from your look you’re nervous about why I am showing you all this. Let me put your mind at rest I’m not trying to sell you this house.
After all the work I put into personalizing it, I don’t think I could ever sell it.
No, I wanted you to see the loving care I put into remodeling this house to let you know I’ll take the same care with you.
I wish it could be different, but I really have to redecorate my home office.

External Ids for TCEB1 Gene
This gene encodes the protein elongin C, which is a subunit of the transcription factor B (SIII) complex. The SIII complex is composed of elongins A/A2, B and C. It activates elongation by RNA polymerase II by suppressing transient pausing of the polymerase at many sites within transcription units. Elongin A functions as the transcriptionally active component of the SIII complex, whereas elongins B and C are regulatory subunits. Elongin A2 is specifically expressed in the testis, and capable of forming a stable complex with elongins B and C. The von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor protein binds to elongins B and C, and thereby inhibits transcription elongation. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding two distinct isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
GeneCards Summary for TCEB1 Gene
TCEB1 (Transcription Elongation Factor B (SIII), Polypeptide 1 (15kDa, Elongin C)) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with TCEB1 include hiv-1. Among its related pathways are TGF-Beta Pathway and Disease. GO annotations related to this gene include protein complex binding.
UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot for TCEB1 Gene
SIII, also known as elongin, is a general transcription elongation factor that increases the RNA polymerase II transcription elongation past template-encoded arresting sites. Subunit A is transcriptionally active and its transcription activity is strongly enhanced by binding to the dimeric complex of the SIII regulatory subunits B and C (elongin BC complex).
The elongin BC complex seems to be involved as an adapter protein in the proteasomal degradation of target proteins via different E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes, including the von Hippel-Lindau ubiquitination complex CBC(VHL). By binding to BC-box motifs it seems to link target recruitment subunits, like VHL and members of the SOCS box family, to Cullin/RBX1 modules that activate E2 ubiquitination enzymes.

Here are some answers to frequently asked questions about the West Metro. If you have any questions, you can ask us on one of our social media channels (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube) or contact us through our feedback channels.
Construction is at the testing phase. Systems testing will ensure that all of the 52 different systems function safely and as planned under all conditions. The power on the rail line was turned on in summer 2021, after which test runs began.
The testing phase will continue during autumn 2021 and winter 2021 with testing at each metro station, in which the functioning of the metro station, adjacent stations and rail line systems in various exceptional situations will be tested. The testing phase will be followed by approvals from authorities and the preparations for starting up the service made by Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd, which operates the trains, and the preparatory measures by HSL (Helsinki Region Transport) on the part of feeder traffic, for example. According to Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd, HSL and Länsimetro, metro traffic can start up on the new section during 2023.
Before the commissioning of the metro, point testing, test runs and so-called scenario testing are used to ensure the proper functioning of the metro in different emergency situations, such as during power outages, fire or flooding. The metro comprises 52 different systems related to functionality and safety.
On the Ruoholahti–Matinkylä section, scenario testing began at the Aalto University station in October 2016, continuing during the winter and spring at other stations. Test runs were completed at Niittykumpu and Matinkylä in May 2017. After this followed the official inspection phase, which continued until autumn 2017. The commissioning of the metro was ensured through the co-operation of all of the parties in November 2017.
On the Matinkylä–Kivenlahti section, scenario tests will begin in autumn 2021 and continue throughout winter 2022. After testing is completed, we will announce the precise date for the starting of the metro service. The estimate is that the service can start during 2023.
The Matinkylä–Kivenlahti section’s regulatory inspections include inspections by the fire and rescue department and building inspection authorities.
On the Matinkylä–Kivenlahti section, Espoo’s and Helsinki’s Rescue Departments have approved the security systems based on test results. Subsequently, Espoo’s and Helsinki’s building authorities have approved the opening of the stations and rail tunnels to passenger traffic. Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd has ensured that the track engineering security systems, including semaphore systems and indicators, are working properly. In practice, the building authorities had the task of approving hundreds of thousands of electronic documents. The rescue authorities carried out their own safety inspections of the metro. On 22 September 2017, in phase I, the Ruoholahti–Matinkylä building inspection authorities approved the opening of the metro for passenger traffic.
Länsimetro will hand over all five stations and rail infrastructure in one go to the traffic operator Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd in 2023. HSL (Helsinki Region Transport) decides on the starting of the metro service and feeder traffic. The metro service is expected to start up between Matinkylä and Kivenlahti during 2023. A more detailed schedule will be confirmed towards the end of 2021, when station-specific testing begins.
The construction and development of the stations’ surroundings also has an impact on when the various metro entrances can be opened for passengers. In Kivenlahti, for example, passengers will have access to only one of the station’s two entrances – the Kivenlahdentori entrance – when the metro service starts. At the Finnoo station, the incomplete construction work near the station will affect commuting for years to come: either the Finnoonsilta or Meritie entrance will always be available to passengers and accessible and safe entrance will be guaranteed at the metro station. The Iivisniemenkallio entrance of the Kaitaa metro station is an option and it will not be opened to passengers when metro service starts. At Soukka and Espoonlahti, both entrances will be open when metro traffic begins.
The metro stations’ names are Finnoo, Kaitaa, Soukka, Espoonlahti and Kivenlahti. The stations are usually named after the district. When the new stations were named, the Kaitaa and Finnoo metro stations’ names caused some confusion.
Kaitaa’s name is based on the official name of the district in which the metro station is located. The residents in the vicinity of the stations know the area as Iivisniemi because the Kaitaa district includes the Finnoo, Hannus, Hannusjärvi, Hyljelahti, Iivisniemi and Kaitamäki areas. The metro traffic serves the entire district.
Finnoo was selected as the name of the metro station because the City of Espoo is building a new residential area, to be named Finnoo, around the station. The area is also known as Suomenoja, but the City of Espoo has decided that its official name will be Finnoo. The original name of the area was Finnoo, derived from the Swedish Finno. The name was subsequently changed to Suomenoja and now the name has been changed back to Finnoo.
Below are the estimated travel times:
- Kivenlahti–Matinkylä: about 10 minutes
- Kivenlahti–Tapiola: about 15 minutes
- Kivenlahti–Rautatientori: about 29 minutes
- Kivenlahti–Hakaniemi: about 31 minutes
- Kivenlahti–Itäkeskus: about 43 minutes
The Board of HSL (Helsinki Region Transport) approved the bus routes and feeder network route in South Espoo on 25 May 2021. Read more about bus routes on HSL’s website. HSL is responsible for the passenger traffic and feeder connections in its operating area. Länsimetro Oy will remain the owner and developer of the Matinkylä–Kivenlahti section after construction.
Additional information on tickets and the metro service is available in HSL’s Journey Planner.
HSL (Helsinki Region Transport) plans and procures public transport in its operating area, approves its fare and ticketing systems and ticket prices, is responsible for its marketing and travel advice, organises ticket sales, and is responsible for ticket inspection. Thus, HSL answers questions concerning passenger traffic. Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd is responsible for the metro service.
See the answer to the question “What is the role of Länsimetro Oy in metro traffic?”.
It is not. The Soukantori entrance building has two doors on two levels: the Soukantori level and Soukantie level. When using the Soukantie entrance, passengers first go up to the Soukantori level either by lift or the stairs and then continue directly down using the lift. All of the West Metro’s entrances are accessible, which is ensured in this case with the lift. Passengers can use four through-car lifts, which provide direct access to the station platform. One lift fits 30 people at a time. Based on assessments, most of the passengers will travel through the Soukantori entrance.
The Soukantori entrance has no escalators; instead passengers use the lift to directly access the metro platform. According to studies, this is absolutely the fastest and smoothest route. The escalator option would have required passengers to use two sets of escalators, which would have meant a 20–30-metre-long corridor in between. To optimise the lift’s operation and travel time, the lift does not stop at the Soukantie level. The stop would increase the travel time by 10–15 seconds, according to estimates.
The metro station platforms have the same edge warning markings as Helsinki’s metro stations. Länsimetro Oy invited representatives of the visually impaired to participate in the Ruoholahti–Matinkylä section station’s accessibility inspection in 2017. On this occasion, representatives of the visually impaired stated that the warning stripe should be made more effective at both old and new metro stations. For the safety of visually impaired passengers, Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd and Länsimetro Oy have agreed that the yellow warning stripe along the station platform edge at a distance of one metre should be enhanced with an additional stripe or strip that can be felt by touch.
Sound beacons have been installed at the outer doors of the stations and at inner doorways leading to lifts. The sound beacons emit a periodic sound that allows people to navigate towards the correct door or check that they are going in the right direction. During emergencies, announcements will be made. In addition, all renovated old metro line stations and all West Metro stations have extensive embossed and fluorescent floor signs for visually impaired passengers.
Also the metro stations along the Matinkylä–Kivenlahti section have taken into consideration the accessibility of the visually impaired with the same solutions as at the Ruoholahti–Matinkylä section’s stations and accessibility inspections have been carried out.
The West Metro is designed for an automated metro and its construction has anticipated that an automated system will be the eventual form of the service. The current metro service, operated by drivers, is an intermediate stage in the Helsinki metropolitan area’s metro service.
Länsimetro is a company jointly owned by the cities of Helsinki and Espoo. In 2006, HKL (nowadays Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd) decided to automate the entire Helsinki region metro service. The length of the West Metro’s platforms was based on the automation decision. The automation decision was also the basis for the West Metro’s first phase (the Ruoholahti–Matinkylä section) project plan, which was completed in 2008. Based on the automation decision, HKL (nowadays Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd) also acquired the current new M-300 metro train fleet, which is the length of two pairs of cars, i.e. approximately 90 metres.
The decision-making history can be found on the City of Helsinki’s website.
The service ability and capacity of the metro can be improved, for instance, by shortening the interval between trains – this can be done by improving the ATC systems. Metro automation is an internationally common way of increasing capacity. In the shorter term, metro congestion can be relieved using lighter measures, such as supplementary bus service.

HKL’s release on 8 January 2021: Metron matkustajamäärät kasvavat – kuljetuskapasiteettia parannetaan (Metro’s passenger volumes growing – transport capacity improved)
To ensure that passengers will fit onto the trains, a new metro control system was introduced in December 2012. The new signal box enabled service at 2.5-minute intervals, while the minimum interval was previously 4 minutes. In August 2016, HKL (nowadays Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd) adopted a 2.5-minute service frequency.
As the West Metro services began in 2017, the entire metro system was transferred to 90-metre trains comprising two pairs of cars. During peak hours, the trains will run at 2.5-minute intervals, which means that 96 cars will be in service during the course of one hour, instead of the earlier 90. This has improved the service standard as trains run more frequently.
Additional capacity is needed as the number of passengers increases. Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd is responsible for metro traffic and HSL is responsible for planning and acquiring public transport for its operating area. Read more about increasing the metro’s capacity in HKL’s release on 8 January 2021: Metron matkustajamäärät kasvavat – kuljetuskapasiteettia parannetaan (Metro’s passenger volumes growing – transport capacity improved)
Länsimetro does not own any metro trains. In addition to the service and maintenance of the rail line and stations, Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd is responsible for metro traffic and owns the metro trains. See the question on Länsimetro Oy’s role in the metro service.
Länsimetro currently has eight stations: Lauttasaari, Koivusaari, Keilaniemi, Aalto University, Tapiola, Urheilupuisto, Niittykumpu and Matinkylä.
The Matinkylä-Kivenlahti section of the West Metro will be completed in 2023. Five new stations will be commissioned: Finnoo, Kaitaa, Soukka, Espoonlahti and Kivenlahti.
Shafts are “holes” excavated from ground level to the rail line, for the purposes of ventilation, smoke extraction and pressure equalisation. The shafts will also serve as emergency exits, for example if a metro train were to stop in a metro tunnel in an emergency. The middle of the shaft contains a fire-compartmented escape route staircase. On the West Metro’s metro line, exit shafts are located roughly every 600 metres. The shafts are an average of 40–50 metres high. There are seven shaft buildings along the Matinkylä–Kivenlahti section. There are 15 shaft buildings from Ruoholahti to Matinkylä
Länsimetro Oy’s task is to build, own, maintain and develop the West Metro system, tracks and stations from Ruoholahti westwards. The transport operator and developer of the rail section and stations from Ruoholahti eastward is the City of Helsinki, more precisely Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd. Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd also owns the metro trains.
As the metro system and infrastructure owner, Länsimetro Oy’s task is to ensure that the West Metro’s metro system and its stations provide a safe commuting environment throughout their lifecycle.
Länsimetro Oy handed over the rail line and stations of the Ruoholahti–Matinkylä section to HKL (nowadays Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd) on 3 October 2017 to start the service. However, the rail line and stations, including their technical systems, remain in the ownership of Länsimetro Oy. Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd reports to Länsimetro Oy on the use of the rail line and stations and related service and maintenance tasks as agreed. Based on an estimate, the Matinkylä-Kivenlahti section will be handed over to Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd in 2023.
HSL (Helsinki Region Transport) plans and procures public transport in its operating area, approves its fare and ticketing systems and ticket prices, is responsible for its marketing and travel advice, organises ticket sales, and is responsible for ticket inspection. In addition to the service and maintenance of the rail line and stations, Metropolitan Area Transport Ltd is responsible for metro traffic and owns the metro train fleet.
The construction of the West Metro is proceeding in two phases. Currently, Länsimetro Oy is building the Matinkylä–Kivenlahti section. The Espoo City Council approved an adjusted project plan on 19 March 2018. The adjusted cost estimate for construction for the second phase, i.e. the Matinkylä–Kivenlahti section, is EUR 1,159 million. The cost of the project also includes cost increases and financing costs during construction. The costs for the excavation work of the Matinkylä–Kivenlahti section were approximately EUR 14 million lower than budgeted.
Passenger traffic on the West Metro’s first section from Ruoholahti to Matinkylä began in November 2017. The first phase was completed in October 2020 when the western entrance of the Matinkylä station was commissioned. The final cost for the Ruoholahti–Matinkylä section’s project plan was EUR 1,171 million.
The metro is an investment providing a sustainable basis for urbanisation-driven growth far into the future. By 2050, Espoo will grow by 70,000 new inhabitants. High quality public transport that enables everyday life to run smoothly will create the preconditions for growth in an economically, socially and environmentally sustainable way. The metro, built underground, will enable the efficient use of land above ground. The travel chain concept will be realised in the best possible way, with services being located precisely where the flow of people is.
At the West Metro’s project planning phase, aboveground and underground metro options were considered. An underground metro line and its stations leave space on the surface for residential and other construction, for example. The City of Espoo is developing and growing near the metro stations, and the area above ground is needed for the expanding city. Modern metro stations require a lot of space as they are approximately 20,000 square metres. Most of the premises consist of technical spaces that are invisible to passengers. It has even been difficult to find space in the urban environment for the aboveground buildings, i.e. the entrances and shafts, of the underground construction. In addition, it is considerably easier to provide park and ride facilities and bus terminals for underground stations than for aboveground solutions.
The metro line runs through a densely built residential area and the stations are located close to other services at convergence points for people. The surface option would have involved extensive and costly construction work in the street network, such as bridges crossing over the tracks and tunnels going under. In addition, traffic flows above ground would have been disrupted, causing congestion for other forms of traffic and impeding the flow of foot traffic and bicycling.
The aboveground metro line of the Matinkylä–Kivenlahti section passes through a flying squirrel habitat. The construction of a surface metro line would not have been possible in such areas.
The operation of an underground metro is more secure than an aboveground one, because, for example, the underground metro is unaffected by weather. In addition, it would not be possible to build parts of the line above ground, because this would add to the number of tunnel entrances. Open tunnel entrances would make temperature control more difficult. Height differences would also be a problem, due to the line geometry of the metro.
The completion of the Ruoholahti–Matinkylä section was delayed because not enough time had been reserved for the final work and commissioning phases. The West Metro is not only Finland’s largest infrastructure project, but also a challenging HVAC and electricity and automation project. There was no previous experience of a commissioning phase for a project of this magnitude and complexity. The commissioning phase, including testing and regulatory inspections, proceeded smoothly, but required considerably more time and effort from all parties than anticipated.

Weight: 18.8 lb. (53cm)
Frame & fork weight: 1,035, 530g (claimed, 56cm)
Drivetrain: SRAM Rival 1
Material: Carbon fiber
Wheel size: 700c
Tire clearance: 40c (claimed)
The right bike for: Cyclocross racing (fast, ideally)
If you want to be convinced that the BSB 9 RDO Rival 1 is synonymous with cyclocross, look no further than the three-letter acronym that begins its name. “BSB” stands for Blood, Sweat, and Beer, because that’s what cyclocross racing is all about, and that’s what you should expect when you ride this bike (don’t try to find blood on the course, it will find you).
This race-specific bike is superbly light at 1,035 grams (for a 56cm frame), meaning you can easily shoulder it when necessary. And its superior stiffness, made with Niner’s RDO Carbon Compaction system, is unmatched. That stiffness translates to efficient power transfer that can also be felt in the RDO cyclocross fork, which features a blade-like geometry that’s unique to Niner. The frame offers internal shifter-cable routing, it’s Di2-ready, and it has been updated for use with flat-mount disc brakes.
A full SRAM Rival 1 groupset, with a 42t crank and an 11-28t cassette, will keep you moving forward on any racecourse, while hydraulic disc brakes and 140mm rotors will halt you no matter the terrain. Be aware: If you plan to use this model for anything other than its intended purpose, you might consider a bigger cassette or smaller crank to make any riding outside the course tape more doable.
This isn’t a do-everything bike, but it is a do-every-cyclocross-race bike. So, if that’s what you’re searching for as you prepare for the coming season, you’ve just stumbled upon it.
This cyclocross-specific fork is stiff and race ready.
SRAM Rival 1
SRAM Rival 1 groupset keeps you moving forward.
The answer to every question: “Pedal damn it.”
Flat-Mount Disc Brakes
Flat-mount disc brakes for better performance.
A chainstay protector guards your frame.
A Frame You Won’t Forget
Some of the great parts of this bike—SRAM Rival 1 groupset, flat-mount hydraulic disc brakes, full carbon frame—are standard across the higher-end cyclocross market. But that does not mean this Niner is average; it’s far from that. And the BSB 9 RDO’s industry-leading frame is proof.
Stiffness in race bikes (even cyclocross bikes) is often spoken of and boasted about. It’s usually one of the first things a company will tell you about its latest and greatest race bike, but simple logic proves that if every frame is stiff then no frame is stiff. However, I’m here to tell you that the BSB 9 RDO frame is absolutely and noticeably aggressive, responsive, and stiff. For this bike, it’s not a PR buzz phrase, it’s the truth.
A big part of that stiffness is attributable to Niner’s RDO Carbon Compaction System, which works by using a foam core that’s the exact shape of whatever part of the frame is being created. Carbon is then wrapped around the foam core to create the desired carbon shape, and the foam-filled carbon is then placed into a mold and heated. The heat from the molding process shrinks the foam (so it can be removed) and leaves a carbon frame that’s precisely designed, stiff, and safe for the rider.
The BSB 9 RDO frame is also Di2 ready. The company sells “a lot of BSB 9 RDO frames for riders who run all types of different setups,” says Niner marketing manager Zack Vestal.
“Di2 compatibility is there for those who need it,” Vestal said. “We want our bikes to be as versatile as possible for all riders’ potential needs.”
All Niner carbon frames come with the company’s C5 warranty, which covers defects in materials and manufacturing for five years. Racing your bike doesn’t disqualify you from this warranty, but rider-caused crashes aren’t covered under it. However, Niner does offer crash-replacement pricing if you don’t time that barrier hop just right.
The BSB 9 RDO is equipped with a full SRAM Rival 1 groupset, including hydraulic brakes, brake levers, rear derailleur, and crankset (42t). It also comes stock with a whole host of proprietary Niner parts, including the saddle, aluminum seatpost, aluminum stem, bar tape, and integrated headset.
This bike rolls on Stans Grail wheels with Neo hubs and Schwalbe X-ONE Evo 700x33c tires, all of which is secured into place by 100x15mm (front) and 142x12mm (rear) thru-axles.
BSB 9 RDO Geometry
This Niner features a mostly classic American-style cyclocross geometry, like the Specialized CruX Elite X1. The 53cm BSB 9 RDO has a 565mm stack height and 377mm reach, compared to the 54cm CruX’s 588mm and 382mm, respectively. This BSB 9 RDO has a 1,010mm wheelbase and a 68mm BB drop, compared to the CruX’s 1,020mm and 69mm, respectively.
The BSB 9 RDO’s fork and seatstays offer plenty of clearance for 33c ’cross tires (claimed clearance for 40c tires), which prevents mud and other debris from clogging up the frame and slowing you during a race. With a clean, glossy finish and a thick-yet-light carbon frame, this bike will wash easily and can handle a fall or bump mid-race that might injure a less sturdy model.
A bonus is that the tube geometry on this bike looks cool, and, whether you’ll admit it to yourself or not, that does matter.
How This Bike Rides
The several gravel, grass, dirt, and road rides on which I took this bike gave me a glimpse of its potential on a cyclocross course, where it’s intended to be.
The first ride I took it on was a 17-mile route that included all of the above-mentioned terrain, and it felt best on rolling gravel and dirt roads. At the bottom of each climb and coming out of every corner, I’d try to accelerate a bit to see how the bike responded on loose ground; I was impressed. The frame stiffness exceeded my expectations and was on par with the hype that Niner puts behind this bike. During these accelerations I felt more efficient than I have on gravel-specific bikes on the same route, meaning that as soon as I started putting out more power, the bike responded rather than lagging or working up to speed. This benefit would be felt especially in a cyclocross race, where efficient power transfer on intentionally crummy terrain can decide whether you’re on the podium or getting lapped.
As I said, this bike is cyclocross focused. This is great, if you are going to be racing and training for cyclocross races. But if you’re looking for a ’cross bike that’s equipped with components that can handle less niche riding, you might have to look elsewhere. That, or you’ll need to be prepared to swap in a larger cassette and or a smaller crank. I’d say my riding level is above average (think CAT ¾ roadie), and I was slowed to a crawl, near walk, on some 18 percent gradients I had to climb over to get to more pleasant gravel roads. Again, this wasn’t the bike doing a bad job at what it was designed for, it was me trying to see what I could get this bike to do.
Although not an entry-level bike, if you are serious about getting into cyclocross, or you’re a racer looking for your next race bike, the Niner BSB 9 RDO Rival 1 is an option that can accommodate riders at almost any level. If you’re more experienced, I’d suggest buying this frameset and building it up with components and a wheelset that you’re comfortable with.

[b-hebrew] WTHYNW in Deut 1:41
kwrandolph at gmail.com
Mon Aug 11 15:46:03 EDT 2008
I read THYNW as a variant of THYYNW, as a second person plural construct
from HYH. While this is not attested to elsewhere in Tanakh, it fits the
> HALOT on root HWN, writes:
> Arb hwn - to be light, IV with /nafsa/ to take one's life in one's own
> hif. imp. wthynw: to regard as eassy, elliptical expression - to risk. Dt
> (Singer, Journal of the Palestine Oriental Society 21:160f); cf Job 30:24
> lhn read *lhɔhin > *lɔhin.
> Yitzhak Sapir
There is no verbal root HWN nor HYN that has survived in Tanakh. As nouns,
HWN refers to resources or as an expression "enough already!", HYN a liquid

OR WAIT null SECS
What I predict will be the top 10 challenges to physicians' work-life balance in the coming year.
I came across an article in Medical Economics that addresses the top 10 challenges physicians will face in 2014. Along these lines, I thought I'd write the first blog of 2014 on what I predict will be the top 10 challenges to your work-life balance in 2014.
1. The ever changing landscape of healthcare reform. Are we supposed to be productive or prioritize quality? Is it more important to focus on the new hypertension guidelines or to focus on our Internet reputation? So many questions abound about how the multiple changes in healthcare will affect our professional life.
2. The increasing trend to provide balance for our children. We face this with our older three children - are we stomping on their future careers as tennis pros or concert pianists by failing to provide them with numerous extracurricular activities? On the other hand, is it better to give our kids more downtime to play, explore, and learn on their own?
3. Payment reform. Part of a healthy work-life balance is a healthy financial balance. As payment reform continues to result in situations such as UnitedHealthcare dropping large groups of doctors to the ongoing debate about the SGR fix, it can be challenging to plan for your financial future.
4. Technological innovation. Just as technology for your phone and computer changes at an increasingly rapid pace, so does the way technology continues to change medicine. We now grapple with questions that include how to better engage our patients electronically to meet meaningful use criteria to how to provide e-visits and compensate providers for asynchronous visits. Similarly, at home, my husband and I struggle with our eight-year old's request for a tablet for her birthday.
5. Vanishing time. Time continues to be the most precious commodity of 2014. As we are asked to do more, try to do more, and seek more opportunities, our time diminishes. As the pace of life continues to speed up, so do our attempts to keep up with it.
6. Our material possessions. My husband and I have become increasingly aware of how the stuff in our house robs us of time, peace, and needed space. And so 2014 is our year to get rid of things and not replace them. Similarly, I am challenged to get rid of never-read medical periodicals and my textbooks from medical school that even impoverished clinics in developing countries are not interested in.
7. The economy. We are fortunate in medicine to enjoy excellent salaries and great job security. However, many of our patients and even our staff face an economy that continues to flounder. The effects of this continue to be felt everywhere from the break room to the exam room as those around us struggle with meeting healthcare costs as well as the basic costs of life.
8. The political fiasco in Washington. The close link between healthcare and politics affects me in increasingly direct ways. As such, both as a healthcare consumer and a healthcare provider, the continual bickering between political parties, grandstanding, and failure to act continue to make it difficult to feel that we are moving forward in any meaningful way.
9. Information overload. I diagnosed a patient with cystic fibrosis last week (after the state lab informed me of the results of her newborn screen). The amount of new information about cystic fibrosis (not to mention the new guidelines on hypertension, obesity, and cholesterol) is overwhelming and difficult to process. I continue to struggle with how to manage the new information that floods my mailbox, inbox, and exam rooms on a daily basis.
10. Myself (yourself). Despite all of the external pressures - and there are many - the greatest battle for work-life balance continues to be internal. Those endless choices we make to check work e-mail on vacation, check Facebook instead of checking in with our spouse, and to put out basic needs for sleep, nutrition, rest, and movement on the back burner all threaten our balance much more than what's happening in Washington or with your health plan.
So fellow seekers of balance, good luck with 2014. May it be fully balanced!

In the Home section of the Nov. 16 Tribune, the captions identifying the beds pictured on page 2 were inadvertently misplaced. The bed described as the stainless steel bed from Benicia Beds is actually from Charles P. Rogers in sterling silver on brass. The bed identified as the pewter-finished iron bed by Dresher is actually from Benicia Beds in stainless steel. And the bed described as sterling silver on brass from Charles P. Rogers is actually Dresher`s pewter-finished iron bed. The Tribune regrets the error.

South Pole Doctor Who Treated Own Breast Cancer Dies
The American doctor who diagnosed and treated her own breast cancer while on a research mission at the South Pole in 1999 has died of cancer.
Dr. Jerri Nielsen FitzGerald, 57, was the only doctor at the National Science Foundation Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station when she found a lump in her breast. Weather conditions made a rescue impossible, so she performed a biopsy on herself and then treated herself with anti-cancer drugs for months until she was taken back to the United States.
Her cancer remained in remission until August 2005. She died Tuesday at her home in Southwick, Mass., her husband, Thomas FitzGerald, said Wednesday, the Associated Press reported.
Neilsen FitzGerald described her South Pole ordeal in a best-selling book that was made into a TV movie. During the last decade, she traveled the world to speak about how cancer had changed her life. She also worked as a roving emergency room doctor at hospitals in the northeastern United States.
Only Four Shots Needed for Rabies Protection
People exposed to a rabid animal need only four vaccinations, not the five currently recommended, a U.S. immunization advisory group has decided.
The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices voted Wednesday that four shots given within the first 14 days of exposure to rabies provides sufficient protection, the Associated Press reported.
Each year, between 20,000 and 40,000 Americans are in contact with a rabid animal. About 1,000 get just three or four shots and none have come down with rabies, which was a factor in the committee's decision, the AP said.
The committee advises the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which prepares official guidelines for doctors.
Until the 1970s, people had to have 14 shots in the abdomen after exposure to rabies, but improved vaccines led the government to ease that requirement.
Insurance Improves Odds of Having a Doctor: Report
Young American adults who don't have health insurance are about half as likely as those with coverage to have a regular doctor (36 percent vs. 70 percent), says a federal government report released Wednesday.
About five million adults ages 19 to 23 didn't have health insurance for the entire year in 2006, and 30 percent said they didn't think coverage was worth the cost, according to the latest News and Numbers from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality.
More than two-thirds of young adults without insurance for the entire year did not see a doctor. Men were more likely than women to be uninsured -- 30 percent vs. 18 percent.
The AHRQ also said that 46 percent (2.2 million) of uninsured young adults worked full time and 26 percent (1.3 million) worked part time. The majority -- about 81 percent -- of the five million young adults without coverage through all of 2006 were not full-time students.
Air Pollution Increases Cancer Risk For Many Americans: EPA
Millions of Americans live in neighborhoods where high levels of toxic air pollutants greatly increase their risk of cancer, according to an Environmental Protection Agency report to be released Wednesday.
People in the nearly 600 neighborhoods have a more than 100 in 1 million risk of cancer, compared to the national average risk of 36 in 1 million.
"If we are in between 10 in 1 million and 100 in 1 million, we want to look more deeply at that. If the risk is greater than 100 in 1 million, we don't like that at all ... we want to investigate that risk and do something about it," Kelly Rimer, an environmental scientist with the EPA, told the Associated Press.
The highest cancer risk in the nation -- 1,200 in 1 million and 1,100 in 1 million -- are in parts of Los Angeles, Calif., and Madison County, Ill., according to the EPA. Two neighborhoods in Allegheny County, Pa., and one in Tuscaloosa, Ala., had the next highest rates of cancer risk from air toxins.
The lowest risk levels are in Coconino County, Ariz., and Lyon County, Nev., the EPA said. The lowest levels of toxic air pollution are in Kalawao County, Hawaii, and Golden Valley County, Mont., the AP reported.
Swine Flu Virus Likely Came From Asia: U.S. Officials
The swine flu pandemic likely originated in pigs in Asia, not on factory farms in Mexico, and was brought to North America by an infected human, say U.S. agriculture officials.
They said there's no evidence that the new swine flu virus -- a combination of North American and Eurasian genes -- has ever circulated in North American pigs. However, there is proof that a closely related "sister virus" has circulated among pigs in Asia, The New York Times reported.
But the agriculture officials added there's no way to prove their theory, which has only sketchy data to support it. As the virus spreads and pigs are infected by humans, it becomes more difficult to determine the origin of the pandemic.
"To tell whether a pig is newly infected by a human or had the virus before the human epidemic began really can't be done," Dr. Kelly M. Lager, a U.S. Agriculture Department swine disease expert, told the Times.Since the swine flu pandemic began, the popular assumption is that it originated in Mexico. The pandemic has now reached more than 90 countries, according to the World Health Organization.

(New York, New York--February 8, 2012) Solid State Logic
is proud to announce its newly completed Broadcast Equipment Demonstration Vehicle
has set out on a non-stop tour of the United States and Canada. The tour began in San Antonio, Texas on Feb 1, 2012 and will continue onwards for the next three years. The custom designed mobile production vehicle features SSL's C10 HD
Compact Broadcast Console and associated routing and I/O solutions in conjunction with all of the key audio and video monitoring and communications systems required for a modern broadcast production facility. Housed in a Russ Berger designed acoustically accurate space, the vehicle enables potential clients to have hands-on experience of SSL's on-air audio production technology right outside their front door.
"This is an incredibly exciting moment for us," says Piers Plaskitt, CEO of SSL Inc. "This vehicle gives us a unique opportunity to take a sophisticated broadcast production environment out on the road to connect directly with our customers in their own locality. We know that money is tight and that many organisations simply can't send as many people to exhibitions like NAB anymore so this vehicle gives us the chance to show the whole production team the benefits of SSL and our partners' technology. Bringing a mini-NAB to our clients ties in nicely with the way we have designed the product to fit today's more challenging budgets. The vehicle is equipped to demonstrate a range of broadcast production systems and will be visiting local broadcast stations, sports arenas and houses of worship. This is also a fantastic opportunity for us to visit our extensive network of educational clients to share knowledge and insight with aspiring young audio engineers. We serve up an impressive cup of coffee, too!"
The SSL Broadcast Equipment Demonstration Vehicle, designed by SSL's Project Engineering team, was built on a 2012 F550 Ford chassis with a custom body and was crafted by leading mobile vehicle specialist Shook Mobile Technology. Russ Berger Design Group (RBDG) provided the acoustic design for the space using both absorbing and diffusing treatments as well as SpaceCoupler technology for the ceiling. The vehicle is presented in association with SSL's technology partners: Genelec, Miranda, RTS and Savant. The truck demonstrates the capabilities of all of these systems and the integration that is possible between them.
The mobile control room space is completely climate controlled, sound isolated and treated to provide a comfortable and acoustically accurate demonstration environment. The space can accommodate several people and a larger group can watch demonstrations from outside the vehicle via an external audio monitoring system and video display, which is linked to internal cameras.
The audio monitoring system inside the vehicle is a complete Genelec 8020.LSE Espresso 5.1 system, which consists of five Genelec
8020B two-way, bi-amplified active monitors matched with a Genelec 7050B LSE(TM) Series Active Subwoofer. A pair of 6010A Bi-Amplified Active Monitors for PFL (pre-fade listen) and a pair of 8030A Bi-Amplified Monitors for the outdoor display round out the audio system. A Miranda Kaleido-X16
multi-viewer offers high quality and space efficient monitoring with silent operation, and Miranda's Densité
processing offers simplified signal management using multi-functional modules. An RTS Adam-M
system with two key panels is employed for intercom, while a Savant
True Image interface handles the vehicle's lighting and video switching.
The SSL Broadcast Equipment Demonstration Vehicle will visit local U.S. broadcasters, houses of worship, systems integrators, key sports and entertainment events, as well as being showcased at trade exhibitions. The schedule for 2012 begins with demonstrations in Texas, moving on to locations in New Mexico, Arizona and California, stopping in Las Vegas for the NAB Show in April, on to Utah and then the Eastern Seaboard.

The 21st century has seen an unbelievable development in know-how that has dramatically modified the man’s capabilities. This package is nice for me and I can all the time find one thing to look at on satellite TELEVISION. In addition they supply sports, Latino, and worldwide packages for those which can be fascinated. Nigerian Communications Satellite Ltd (NIGCOMSAT) is an organization and company under the Federal Ministry of Communications Expertise (FMCT) whose mission is to be the leading satellite tv for pc operator and repair supplier in Africa.
And whereas satellite tv for pc TELEVISION costs have come down lately, cable tv fees have gone up. For years, the biggest disadvantage to satellite tv for pc tv was their lack of local community channels in many areas. Using satellites to relay TELEVISION channels, Web broadband and radio has turn into very common lately. This method uses the power of the communication satellite situated in the southern hemisphere which is miles away from the surface of the earth.
LAPTOP satellite tv for pc TV software seldom costs more than $60 and can be utilized as long as you want. Everytime I come into this spot I get flashbacks of strolling right here everyday after college for a recent slice of BBQ Hen Pizza with a aspect of ranch to dunk it in. I grew up in Blue Level so my whole household loves Satelite. There are fewer disruptions, higher image high quality and excessive-velocity connectivity than there was once, so consequently the variety of individuals opting for satellite TV is increasing yearly.
Not too way back, we still remember people utilizing large dish for his or her satellite tv. Those who watch TELEVISION utilizing satellite TELEVISION companies can dispose of the set up part as the corporate would provide it free. New systems being applied by Verizon, or maybe an intensive retooling by native cable TV operators will provide the perfect competition.
With this addition you get 4 free rooms of Free Dish Satellite Gear put in. For some areas, like Belgium and the Netherlands, the completion from cable networks that provide unique content material can overpower the benefits offered by satellite tv for pc services. This explains why Dish Network is the fastest rising satellite TV provider and now has over 14 million prospects.

I used to do a review of what I’d been reading, watching, listening to etc on an old blog. I have decided it’s time to bring that back to this blog.
My favourite tunes this month have been varied, as always. On my old blog I used to share links to YouTube, but I have noticed on this particular blog the links to music I have shared in the past don’t always work. My workaround for that is to share links via Apple Music, as that’s the platform I use to stream the music I listen to.
This month I have been listening to:
I have obviously listened to more, but the above are the tunes I have been fairly obsessed with.
This month I have been reading:
You Can Heal Your Life by Lousie Hay.
Now Is Your Chance by Niyc Pidgeon
The Book Of Confidence by Sue Patton Thoele
Home Truths by Susan Lewis.
This month I have been watching:
Lucifer on Amazon TV
The Blacklist on Sky One
S.W.A.T on Sky One
FBI on Sky Witness
Instinct on Sky Witness
Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald.
My month has also been spent attending a variety of medical appointments and school appointments with my daughter about my Granddaughter who is in the process of getting diagnosed with Sensory Processing Disorder.
I hope you have enjoyed reading this blog post. Same time next month.

FREETOWN, SIERRA LEONE--(Marketwired - Mar 12, 2014) - Sunergy, Inc. (the "Company") (OTCQB: SNEY) is pleased to provide this update for our West African operations and share our plans for success in 2014, as follows:
SIERRA LEONE: As of today, our Kono Diamond and Gold operation has started with Dredgemaster David Price and our geologist commencing several strategic test pits to determine the depth of topsoil and overburden covering the number 5 sand level. This will determine the quantity of earth to be moved and stored for reclamation purposes. The depth of gravels (pay zone) will also be measured to determine the quantity of gravels required to be processed thru our existing wash plant. We have located another 500ton/hour wash plant that Price is considering deploying if required at a later date. Our two 8" dredges are working closer to Magburaka but will move up to Kono once we establish our new base of operations there. There is a discussion that one dredge may operate in a diamond and gold rich area near Kenema, another diamond and gold center in Sierra Leone.
Prince Saquee, Chairman of the Diamond and Gold Dealers Association in Kono, said: "I am pleased that we are starting this year round operation for recovering diamonds and gold in my community. Sunergy will work closely with my local artisanal miners and this will provide them a new level of prosperity. I will personally assist in every way that I am able to insure a successful and highly profitable operation."
LIBERIA: We are starting testing under a reconnaissance license with our local geologist to be fully compliant with the local laws. Once test results are in, additional mining licenses will be brought under our sponsorship for our planned year round diamond and gold operations. Prior to the conflict in Liberia, local hand miners worked in this area and recovered millions of dollars in diamonds and gold. Our operations will support these local miners by adding our two 6" dredges and additional equipment as allowed by Minerals Commission. In less than 10 days, Dredgemaster Price will be in Liberia to start the dredging operations. We now have an executed agreement to operate on up to 1,000 acres with our initial area to be 300 acres.
THE GAMBIA: We have been fortunate to have been granted an agency agreement to represent a Canadian Airport Security Company who works with the support of the Canadian Export Development Bank. This Company's technology is currently at work in all five terminals at Heathrow and at Gatwick, UK, in Frankfurt and Zurich, Germany and Abidjan, Ivory Coast, Africa. Negotiations are ongoing and more details will be provided at closing, which looks very positive. This resulted from our association with ATA Systems, our manufactured affordable housing partner. Six large plots of land have already been set aside to receive our affordable housing models in different areas of this small country. Details regarding site servicing with sewer, water, electricity and roads are being worked thru at this time. Once any conclusion is reached we will immediately announce the details. All security and housing operations will be conducted through our partnership Gambia corporation, Sunata Company Limited. Sunata, is a combination of Sunergy and ATA, but we discovered our name, Sunata, is derived from a Sanskrit word that refers to the hidden potential existing in all things when we can see them unobscured by our customary filters. To uncover that potential, we need to see ourselves, others, and even external forces, with a new eye.
SENEGAL: We have been invited to submit a proposal to provide 5,000 houses per year over 5 years. Details will be made available as we progress. If accepted, we will assist to locate a housing factory locally in order to facilitate a cost effective solution to the acute housing need in this country. Our proposal is up for consideration next week.
GHANA: We are evaluating our future activities in Ghana. Joint Venture discussions are still underway, and special permissions are required to operate alluvial on our full prospecting license. These matters take time and costs are significant. Results will be published when available.
Sunergy President and CEO, Garrett Hale, says: "We have substantial opportunities on our plate and the best part is Management has been able to secure these projects with Sunergy operating under agency type arrangements. There are virtually no significant capital requirements to reap the benefits from the Airport Security and Housing projects, some local travel from Freetown or Monrovia, where we are already stationed. David Price has managed to put our dredges to work under agreements in Sierra Leone where we have zero cost basis and reap a substantial part of the gross products or revenue recovered. I am very excited about our prospects for sustainable cash flow, especially since we have now discovered how to operate our mining projects year round instead of being shut down for the rainy season."
Dredgemaster, David Price states: "I am pleased to be associated with Sunergy and their management which gives me total support in developing our plans for success in our mining operations in Sierra Leone and Liberia. I have found suitable trusted and knowledgeable workers and supervisors so that I can go back and forth between these two operations. Last time I flew to Monrovia from Freetown, it cost about $140 and took 40 minutes. Management will be in Sierra Leone and Liberia shortly to assist in oversight, administration and operations. We are a hard-working, talented and determined group who are destined for great success for our shareholders this year. That really keeps me excited."
Operating results will be available shortly after the end of first quarter so as to not delay the 10K filing. Please visit our website: www.sunergygold.com Update on Liberia will be forthcoming soon.
SUNERGY, Inc., a Nevada corporation (OTCQB: SNEY) is a publicly listed and traded, production oriented, junior mining company headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, USA that is production oriented at the earliest possible profitable opportunity and has an appetite to grow by profitable acquisition. It is engaged in the evaluation, acquisition, exploration, planned operation and advancement to production of largely alluvial gold/rare earth elements and diamond recovery projects in Ghana, Sierra Leone and Liberia West Africa. This year marks the beginning of our Cash Flow Operations as the Operating season is now underway.

U.S. equities pushed higher this week, preferring to focus on softening trade talk rather than the political drama in Washington. The earnings season kicked off in earnest, and we saw a further flattening of the yield curve.
The S&P 500 ended the week up about 2%. Improving sentiment around trade overshadowed heightened White House tensions and uncertainty surrounding the U.S.’s response in Syria. There was no definitive news on the trade front, yet there appears to be a general sentiment that the introduction of the President’s new economic advisor, Larry Kudlow (who is pro-free trade), will help expedite a NAFTA deal and improved trade relations with China. Later in the week, it was even reported that the U.S. was looking to re-enter the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade agreement.
U.S. equity markets seemed to largely dismiss the potential ramifications of the FBI obtaining a warrant to search the President’s personal lawyer and the risk of escalation of the Syrian conflict following another suspected chemical attack by the Assad regime. However, the bond yield curve continued to flatten (see our Spotlight section below).
Spotlight: Flattening Curves
Every winter the Strategic Investment Team initiates a weight loss competition to try and shed some of those extra holiday pounds. Speaking only for myself, this annual “curve flattening,” is a useful investment in my overall health. In the bond market, we have experienced another type of curve flattening. The yield curve flattening, which we discussed in our quarterly perspectives, has continued. The difference between the 2-year and 10-year bond is at a mere 0.46%. But curve flattening in the bond market is typically not viewed as healthy. Economic activity can slow if financial institutions are not incentivized enough to make longer-term loans. We are not there yet, but if the Fed continues to raise short rates, without movement in the longer-term rates, this could become a risk to growth.

STRATEGIC ASSET ALLOCATION
Sizing up Domestic Stocks
While strength in equity markets and around the world point to robust global growth, the fixed income markets seemingly beg to differ. As discussed in our Spotlight, the spread between 2-year U.S. Treasury and 10-year U.S. Treasury is about 0.46% from inverting (lenders demand more interest to lend on the short-end than on the long). On the flip side, equity markets are slowly stabilizing as geopolitical/trade jitters are easing. U.S. small-capitalization stocks took the lead this week. Speaking of U.S. small capitalization stocks…
- The outperformance of small-cap stocks over large-cap following their 20% post-election jump in November 2016 has now nearly closed.
- Yet, the catalysts for small-cap stocks such as lower levels of regulation, corporate tax cuts, and increased M&A activity are still on the table.
- With a trailing price to earnings ratio versus large cap at its lowest since 2010, we recommend overweighting the asset class.
Looking Up at the Sky
The Technology, Energy and Health Care sectors were jostling for positioning on top, while the Consumer Staple and Consumer Discretionary stocks were battling it out at the bottom. In other strategy news…
- The Walt Disney Corp. (DIS) found itself in acquisition news this week, but not in the traditional sense. Disney is pursuing an acquisition of Fox (FOX) (old news) who owns a 39% stake in British network Sky (SKYAY). On Thursday British regulators ruled that Disney would have to bid £10.75 per share for the remaining Sky shares if it succeeded in its attempt to acquire Fox. Also, Disney launched a new sports content streaming app on Thursday. The content would be different than traditional ESPN & ESPN 2 content to avoid hurting the current business.
STRATEGIC EQUITY INCOME
‘Tis the Season
The Consumer Discretionary sector was the clear laggard while Technology bounced back from recent setbacks to top the Energy sector’s big week. In other news…
- BlackRock Corp (BLK), JP Morgan Chase & Co. (JPM) and Fastenal Corp. (FAST) were the first three holdings to kick-off the earnings season. The reports were mixed. Fastenal matched expectations, but rising expenses were an unwelcome development. BlackRock reported a solid quarter, but new asset flows were less than the huge inflow in the previous quarter. Finally, JP Morgan was the first big bank to report, and results were good, but expectations were also very high. CEO Jamie Dimon described the environment as “intensely competitive, and lending was flat for the quarter.”
|Indices & Price Returns||Week (%)||Year (%)|
|S&P 400 (Mid Cap)||1.6||-0.9|
|Russell 2000 (Small Cap)||2.4||0.9|

The Week Ahead
Markets SEEM to be Turning Focus to Earnings
Speeches from FOMC member Bostic, Williams, Quarles, Evans, Dudley, and Mester might help investors to get a better idea of the timing of the next Fed rate hike(s).
- According to Bloomberg’s US interest rate probability metric, the next rate hike is widely expected to happen sometime between June and August.
Economics data of note next week include Retail Sales, New Housing Starts and Building Permits, and Industrial Production.
- Retail Sales are estimated to show growth in March with auto sales leading the pack.
- New Housing Starts are expected to reach the 20-year median of around 1,261,000 new houses per month.
- Industrial Production is expected to expand.
Earnings season kicks up steam next week with health care in focus in Strategic Growth with UnitedHealth (UNH) and Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) reporting. In our Equity Income strategy, there should be plenty of interest in the banking space with M&T Bank (MTB), U.S. Bancorp (USB), Bank of New York Mellon (BK) and BB&T (BBT) on the docket.
Meeting of the Economic and Financial Affairs Council (EcoFin) in Europe and the International Monetary Fund meeting in Washington D.C. should be noteworthy.

Hosted by Kate at Booksaremyfavouriteandbest, Six Degrees of Separation picks a starting book for participants to go wherever it takes them in six more steps.
Links in the titles will take you to my reviews. This month – the starting book is:
Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll
A childhood favourite that I re-read so many times. However I had a harder time with when I read it aloud to my daughter when she was younger. Doing all the different voices did me in, and I did find Alice rather irritating and petulant – or was that me! (More about that experience here). My link shall be through the name ‘Lewis‘ which leads to…
Advantages of the Older Man by Gwynneth Lewis
This novella was just brilliant. Jennie, a recent graduate, applies for a job with The Dylan Thomas Gallery. In her parents’ house her mother goes ‘Pig of a man,’ every time his name is mentioned and she is aghast when Jenny gets the job – it turns out she knew him – but she won’t give any details. It is there she meets Peter, a poet and helps him to start up an Open Mic Poetry Club despite not being a poetry fan. Peter doesn’t seem to notice her though, so when he and Bernard decide to hold a Dylan Thomas celebration, Jennie leaps into helping and gets into the spirit of Dylan … or rather he gets into her. All this attention has brought the ghost of Dylan Thomas back and he appears to Jennie in her bedroom, with hilarious consequences! Under 100 pages, but briliiant. My link could only be Dylan Thomas leading to…
Pistache by Sebastian Faulks
Faulks used to appear as one of the team captains on a Radio 4 Quiz programme called The Write Stuff. At the end of each programme, the two captains would face off with a literary parody. This little book contains loads of Faulks’s gems – including a cereal advert in the style of Dylan Thomas – click through to read that piece – it’s hilarious! My onward link shall be through the name ‘Sebastian‘ which leads to:
The Juggler by Sebastian Beaumont
I don’t know what’s happened to Beaumont – he published a couple of LGBT novels before a pair of more mainstream ones, of which the Juggler came second – nothing I’ve seen since. That is a shame. as The Juggler was well-written and one of those mess with your mind psychological dramas in which nothing was quite what it seemed. I really enjoyed it. But as jugglers are often circus performers, that leads me to:
Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen
I so enjoyed this story of life in a travelling circus. I read it pre-blog, but it has stayed with me for its imagery and superb characters, especially Jacob the narrator, Walter the dwarf clown – and Rosie the elephant. The circus travelled by train as did:
The Adventures of T.S. Spivet by Reif Larsen
This was a beautiful book. Spivet is a 12-year-old genius, who gets invited to go to the Smithsonian Museum in Washington DC as winner of a competition. They didn’t know he was only 12, Spivet has a whale of a time getting there hitching a ride on a train. The book, at least in its hardback incarnation, followed his journey closely in illustrations, pictures and footnotes – it was just lovely. My final link is the ultimate goal of getting to the museum, which leads to:
The Museum of Extraordinary Things by Alice Hoffman
Hoffman takes the idea of 1900s freak shows and tells us about the life and work of an entrepreneur who sees those with interesting characteristics with a scientific eye rather than showman’s eye – hence his ‘museum’. His teenaged daughter Coralie, who has webbed hands, narrates this story of Coney Island in 1911. I really enjoyed this book, and got the opportunity to send some questions to Hoffman (here) too. And for once, I’ve managed to get back to the starting book with Alice.
My six degrees was anchored in the UK and the USA, but went further in the mind this time…. where will your six degrees take you?

Available on Prime Video, Kevin Can F ** k Himself is a black comedy in the purest tradition with a daring concept. She shatters the myth of the sitcom and its portrayal of the housewife.
What is it about ?
The series takes a look at the archetypal sitcom woman. The program seeks to break television conventions in order to show how the character perceives the outside world outside the film set …
Kevin Can F ** k Himself, a series created by Valerie Armstrong with Annie Murphy, Eric Petersen, Mary Hollis Inboden …
Who is it with?
The cast members are not well known to the general public. Nevertheless in the main role, that of Allison, the unhappy wife of Kevin, we find Annie Murphy that the seriesphiles could discover in Schitt’s Creek.
As for the title Kevin, he is played by Eric Petersen. If he has made numerous appearances on television, this is his first recurring role. American audiences were able to see him on stage as Shrek during the tour for the musical Shrek the musical.
Well worth a look ?
Original creation of the cable channel AMC – which entered the series round with wonders like Breaking Bad or Mad Men – Kevin Can F ** k Himself has that same singular tone as his elders. It immediately surprises with its original concept: that of inverting the genre of the sitcom and that of the classic drama.
In short, all the scenes in Kevin’s presence are filmed like a classic sitcom. The sitcom’s specifications are followed to the letter: the little musical gimmick to introduce the scene; the wide shot of the living room filmed, like a theater set, from the audience’s point of view; bright colors ; the jokes that burst forth and the laughter recorded.
As soon as Kevin leaves the room or Allison leaves her house: change of tone and genre. We are entering a classic drama. Here the focus is on some form of creepy with darkened photography. All the sitcom’s tinsel gets cocky.
This system sheds light on the nightmare in which Allison feels trapped. Married to a man-child and deeply selfish, she feels trapped in a couple and in a life that does not suit her. She dreams of freedom. Especially by crossing an old flame (Raymond Lee), back after years of absence.
It is also a clever deconstruction of the sitcom – king genre in the United States and which gave birth to the television series – by showing that the portrayal of women is often pathetic. It is the model of the average American family who is dogged at the same time with real talent. It remains to be seen now whether this narrative architecture can hold up over time.

Phra Ajaan Mun Bhuridatta Mahathera (1870-1949) was by all accounts the most highly respected Buddhist monk in recent Thai history. Ordained in 1893, he spent the major part of his life wandering through Thailand, Burma, and Laos, dwelling for the most part in the forest, engaged in the practice of meditation. He attracted a large following of students and — together with his teacher, Phra Ajaan Sao Kantasila Mahathera — was responsible for the establishment of the forest ascetic tradition that has now spread throughout Thailand and to several countries abroad.
Despite his fame as a teacher, very few of his teachings were recorded for posterity. Only one slim book of passages drawn from his sermons, Muttodaya (A Heart Released), was published during his lifetime. His students generally believed that he himself never wrote down any of his teachings, but at his death the following poem was found among the few papers he left behind. As he noted on the final page, he composed it during one of his brief stays in Bangkok, at Wat Srapatum (LotusPond Monastery), probably in the early 1930's. He was apparently inspired by an anonymous poem on the theme of meditation composed and printed in Bangkok during that period, for both poems share virtually the same beginning — the 39 lines in the following translation beginning with, "Once there was a man who loved himself..." Ajaan Mun's poem, however, then develops in an entirely original direction and shows by far a deeper understanding of the training of the mind.
Translating the poem has presented a number of difficulties, not the least of which has been getting a definitive reading of the original manuscript. Ajaan Mun wrote during the days before Thai spelling became standardized, some of the passages were smudged with age, and a few seem to have been "corrected" by a later hand. Another difficulty has been the more general problem of finding the proper English style for translating Thai poetry, which depends heavily on rhyme, rhythm, and a stripped-down syntax, somewhat like that of telegrams and newspaper headlines. This style gives Thai poetry a lightness of style combined with a richness of meaning, but frustrates any attempt to pin down any one precise message for the sake of translation — an excellent lesson for anyone who feels that the truth is what is conveyed in words.
The following translation is meant to be as literal as possible, although I have fleshed the text out when it seemed necessary to make the English intelligible. Because the original alternates between two poetic forms — klon and rai — I tried to create a similar effect in English by alternating blank verse and free verse. The result is probably too literal to be poetry, but I felt that anyone reading it would be more interested in the meaning than in verbal effects. The instances where I have taken the most liberty with the text have been included in square brackets, as has one passage — ironically, dealing with the error of being addicted to correcting things — where the reading of the original seems to have been doctored.
The reader will notice that in a few places the poem seems to jump abruptly from one topic to another. In some cases these shifts were dictated by the rhyme scheme, but in others they are not really shifts at all. Keep in mind that the poem operates on several levels. In particular, two parallel themes run throughout: (1) an analysis of the external error of focusing on the faults of other people instead of one's own, and (2) a discussion of the mind's internal error of viewing (and criticizing) the khandhas as somehow separate from its own efforts to know them. Statements made directly about one level apply indirectly to the other as well. Thus the poem covers a wider range of the practice than might appear at first glance. It's a work that rewards repeated readings.
I would like to express my gratitude to Phra Ajaan Suwat Suvaco (Phra Bodhidhammacariya Thera) for the invaluable help he gave me in untangling some of the knottier passages in the poem. Any mistakes that may remain, of course, are mine.

The Ballad of Liberation from the Khandhas
I pay homage to the one Well-gone,
the Foremost Teacher, the Sakyan Sage,
the Rightly Self-Awakened One;
& to the nine transcendent Dhammas;
& to the Noble Sangha.
I will now give a brief exposition
of the Dhamma khandhas,
as far as I understand them.
Once there was a man who loved himself
and feared distress. He wanted happiness
beyond the reach of danger, so he wandered
endlessly. Wherever people said
that happiness was found, he longed to go,
but wandering took a long, long time.
He was the sort of man who loved himself
and really dreaded death. He truly wanted
release from aging & mortality.
Then one day he came to know the truth,
abandoning the cause of suffering &
compounded things. He found a cave of wonders,
of endless happiness, i.e., the body.
As he gazed throughout the cave of wonders,
his suffering was destroyed, his fears appeased.
He gazed and gazed around the mountain side,
Experiencing unbounded peace.
He feared if he were to go and tell his friends,
they'd say he'd gone insane. He'd better stay
alone, engaged in peace, abandoning
his thoughts of contact, than to roam around,
a sycophant, both criticized & flattered,
exasperated & annoyed.
But then there was another man afraid
of death, his heart all withered & discouraged.
He came to me and spoke frankly
in a pitiful way. He said,
"You've made an effort at your meditation
for a long time now.
Have you seen it yet,
the true Dhamma of your dreams?"
(Eh! How is it that he knows my mind?)
He asked to stay with me, so I agreed.
"I'll take you to a massive mountain
with a cave of wonders
free from suffering & stress:
mindfulness immersed in the body.
You can view it at your leisure to cool your heart
and end your troubles.
This is the path of the Noble lineage.
It's up to you to go or not.
I'm not deceiving or compelling you,
just telling you the truth for what it is."
And then I challenged him with riddles. First:
"What runs quickly is viññana,
movements walking in a row,
one after another. Not doubting that saññas are right,
the heart gets caught up in the running back & forth.
Saññas grab hold of things outside
and pull them in to fool the mind,
Making it think in confusion & go out searching,
They fool it with various dhammas,
like a mirage."
"What gains total release from the five khandhas?"
"The heart, of course, & the heart alone.
It doesn't grasp or get entangled.
No more poison of possessiveness,
no more delusion,
it stands alone.
No saññas can fool it into following along
"When they say there's death, what dies?"
"Sankharas die, destroying their effects."
"What connects the mind into the cycle?"
"The tricks of sañña make it spin.
The mind goes wrong because it trusts its saññas,
attached to its likes,
leaving this plane of being,
going to that, wandering till it's dizzy,
completely obscure to itself.
No matter how hard it tries to find the Dhamma,
it can't catch a glimpse."
"What ferrets out the Dhamma?"
"The heart ferrets it out,
trying to find out how saññas say 'good'
and grasp at 'bad'
and force it to fasten on loving & hating."
"To eat once & never look for more?"
"The end of wanting to look, to know,
to hope for knowing more,
The end of entanglements.
The mind sits still on its dais,
discarding its attachments."
"A four-sided pool, brimming full?"
"The end of desire, abandoning doubt,
clean, without a mote, & danger-free.
Saññas settle out, sankharas don't disturb it.
The heart is thus brimming, with nothing lacking.
Quiet & still, the mind
has no lamenting thoughts:
something worth admiring day after day.
Even if one were to gain
heavenly treasures by the millions,
they'd be no match for the true knowing
that abandons all sankharas.
The crucial thing: the ending of desire.
Labels stay in their own sphere and don't intrude.
The mind, unenthralled with anything,
stops its struggling.
Like taking a mirror to look at your reflection:
Don't get attached to the saññas,
which are like the image.
Don't get intoxicated with the issues of sankharas.
"When the heart moves, you can catch sight
of the unadulterated heart.
You know for sure that the movement is in yourself
because it changes.
Inconstancy is a feature of the heart itself,
no need to criticize anyone else.
You know the different sorts of khandhas
in the moving of the mind.
"Before, I used to think that saññas were the heart,
labeling 'outer' & 'inner,'
which was why I was fooled.
Now the heart's in charge, with no concerns,
no hopes of relying on any one sañña at all.
Whatever arises or passes away
there's no need to be possessive of saññas
or to try to prevent them."
"Like climbing to the top of a truly tall mountain
and looking at the lowlands below,
seeing every living being."
"Way up high, looking back
you see all your affairs
from the very beginning,
forming a path, like stairs."
"Does the rise & fall of the river
accord with the Truth?"
"You can't remedy the changing of sankharas.
Fashioned by kamma,
they're out to spite no one.
If you grasp hold of them
to push them this way & that,
the mind has to become defiled & wrong.
Don't think of resisting
the natural way of all things.
Let good & evil follow their own affairs.
We simply free
Unentangled in sankharas:
That's what's peaceful & cool.
When you know the truth,
you have to let go of sankharas
as soon as you see their changing.
When you weary of them,
you let them go easily,
with no need to be forced.
The Dhamma is cooling.
The mind will stop
being subjected to things."
"The five duties complete?"
"Khandhas divide the issues of fashioning
into five realms,
each filled with its duties & affairs,
with no room for any other,
because their hands are full —
no room even for fortune, status, praise, pleasure,
loss of fortune, loss of status, criticism, pain.
They let each of these follow its own nature,
in line with its truth.
The mind's not entangled
with any of these eight,
because physical khandhas keep creating
aging & illness without pause.
The mental khandhas never rest.
They work like motors
because they must take on the kamma
of what they have done:
Good things make them enthralled & happy,
bad things agitate and darken the heart,
making it think without stop,
as if it were aflame.
The mind is defiled & dull.
Its loves & hates
are things it has thought up on its own,
so who else can it blame?
"Do you want to escape aging & death?
It's beyond the range of possibility,
as when we want the mind to stop
wandering around and thinking,
when we want it to stay at one
and hope to depend on its stillness.
The mind is something that changes,
Saññas stay in place only from time to time.
Once we grow wise to the nature
of all five khandhas,
the mind will be clear & clean,
free from stain, with no more issues.
If you can know in this way,
because you see the truth,
and gain release.
That's the end of the path.
You don't resist the natural way
of the truth of things.
Poverty & wealth, good & bad,
in line with events both within & without,
all have to pass and vanish.
You can't grasp hold of anything
at which the mind takes aim.
"Now, when the mind's inconstant on its own
— aquiver, quick — and you catch sight of it,
that's when you find the ultimate in ease.
Small things obscure our knowledge of the large.
The khandhas totally obscure the Dhamma,
and that's where we go wrong. We waste our time
in watching khandhas so that we don't see
the Dhamma that, though greater than the khandhas,
seems like dust."
"There is, there isn't. There isn't, yet there is."
"Here I'm totally stymied
and can't figure it out.
Please explain what it means."
"There is birth of various causes & effects,
but they are not beings,
they all pass away.
This is clear,
the meaning of the first point:
There is, there isn't.
The second point, there isn't, yet there is:
This refers to the deep Dhamma,
the end of all three levels of existence,
where there are no sankharas,
and yet there is the stable Dhamma.
This is the Singular Dhamma, truly solitary.
The Dhamma is One & unchanging.
excelling all being, extremely still.
The object of the unmoving heart,
still & at respite,
quiet & clear.
No longer intoxicated,
no longer feverish,
its desires all uprooted,
its uncertainties shed,
its entanglement with the khandhas
all ended & appeased,
the gears of the three levels of the cosmos all broken,
overweening desire thrown away,
its loves brought to an end,
with no more possessiveness,
all troubles cured
as the heart had aspired."
"Please explain the mind's path
in yet another way,
& the cause of suffering in the mind
that obscures the Dhamma."
"The cause is enormous,
but to put it briefly,
it's the love
that puts a squeeze on the heart,
making it concerned for the khandhas.
If the Dhamma is with the heart
that's the end of attachment,
with no more cause for suffering:
Remember this, it's the path of the mind.
You won't have to wonder,
spinning around till you're dizzy.
The mind, when the Dhamma's not always with it,
gets attached to its likes,
concerned for the khandhas,
sunk in the cause of suffering.
"So in brief, there's suffering
& there's the Dhamma
always with the mind.
Contemplate this until you see the truth,
and the mind will be completely cool.
However great the pleasure or pain,
they'll cause you no fear.
No longer drunk with the cause of suffering,
the mind's well-gone.
Knowing just this much is enough
to soothe your fevers,
and to rest from your search for a path to release.
The mind knowing the Dhamma forgets
the mind attached to dust.
The heart knowing the Dhamma of ultimate ease
sees for sure that the khandhas are always stressful.
The Dhamma stays as the Dhamma,
the khandhas stay as khandhas, that's all.
"And as for the phrase,
'Cool, at ease, & freed from fever,'
this refers to the mind that's rescued itself
from the addictive error
[of correcting other things].
The sankhara aggregate offers no pleasure
and truly is painful,
for it has to age, grow ill, and die every day.
When the mind knows the unexcelled Dhamma,
it extracts itself from its defiling error
that aggravates disease.
This error is a fierce fault of the mind.
But when it clearly sees the Dhamma,
it removes its error,
and there's no more poison in the heart.
When the mind sees the Dhamma,
& released from error,
meeting the Dhamma, it sheds all things
that would make it restless.
It's mindful, in & of itself,
Its love for the khandhas comes to an end,
its likes are cured,
its worries cease,
all dust is gone.
Even if the mind thinks in line with its nature,
we don't try to stop it.
And when we don't stop it,
it stops running wild.
This frees us from turmoil.
"Know that evil comes
from resisting the truth.
"Evil comes from not knowing.
If we can close the door on stupidity,
there's ultimate ease.
All evil grows silent, perfectly still.
All the khandhas are suffering, with no pleasure at all.
"Before I was stupid & in the dark,
as if I were in a cave.
In my desire to see the Dhamma,
I tried to grab hold of the heart to still it.
I grabbed hold of mental labels,
thinking they were the heart
until it became a habit.
Doing this I was long enthralled
with watching them.
Wrong mental labels obscured the mind
and I was deluded into playing around
with the khandhas —
"Exalting myself endlessly,
I went around passing judgment on others
but accomplishing nothing.
Looking at the faults of others
embitters the heart,
as if we were to set ourselves on fire,
becoming sooty & burned.
Whoever's right or wrong, good or bad,
that's their business.
Ours is to make sure
the heart looks after itself.
Don't let unskillful attitudes buzz around it & land.
Make it consummate
in merit & skill —
the result will be peace.
Seeing others as bad and oneself as good
is a stain on the heart,
for one latches onto the khandha
that holds to that judgment.
If you latch onto the khandhas
they'll burn you for sure,
for aging, defilement, & death will join in the fray:
full of anger & love, obvious faults,
worries, sorrows, & fears,
while the five forms of sensuality
bring in their multifarious troops.
We gain no release from suffering & danger
because we hold to the five khandhas as ours.
Once you see your error, don't delay.
Keep constant watch on the inconstancy of sankharas.
When the mind gets used to this,
you're sure to see the Singular Dhamma,
solitary in the mind.
"'Inconstancy' refers to the heart
as it moves from its labels.
When you see this, watch it
again & again,
right at the moving.
When all external objects have faded away,
the Dhamma will appear.
When you see that Dhamma, you recover
from mental unrest.
The mind then won't be attached to dualities.
Just this much truth can end the game.
That's the method for the heart.
Once we see through inconstancy,
the mind-source stops creating issues.
All that remains is the primal mind,
true & unchanging.
Knowing the mind-source
brings release from all worry & error.
If you go out to the mind-ends,
you're immediately wrong.
"'Darkness' comes from the mind
possessive of what's good.
This possessiveness is thought up
by the mind-ends.
The mind-source is already good
when the Dhamma appears, erasing doubt.
When you see the superlative Dhamma,
surpassing the world,
all your old confused searchings
are uprooted and let go.
The [only] suffering left
is the need to sleep and eat
in line with events.
The heart stays, tamed, near the mind-source,
Thinking, yet not dwelling on its thoughts.
The nature of the mind is that it has to think,
But when it senses the mind-source
it's released from its sorrows,
secluded from disturbances, & still.
The nature of sankharas
when they appear
is to vanish.
They all decay; none remain.
Beware of the mind
when you focus on making it refined,
for you'll tend to force it
to get stuck on the stillness.
Get the heart to look again & again
at its inconstancy, until it's a habit.
When you reach 'Oh!'
it will come on its own:
awareness of the heart's song,
like a mirage.
The Buddha says the corruptions of insight
disguise themselves as true
when actually they're not.
The awareness of mental phenomena
that comes on its own,
is direct vision,
not like hearing & understanding
on the level of questioning.
The analysis of phenomena,
mental & physical,
is also not vision that comes on its own:
The awareness that comes on its own
is not the thought-song.
Knowing the mind-source
the source-mind is released from sorrow.
The mind-source's certain
automatic knowledge of sankharas
— the affairs of change —
is not a matter of parading out
to see or know a thing.
It's also not a knowledge based
on labeling in pairs.
The mind knows itself
from the motion of the song.
The mind's knowledge of the motion
is simply adjacent mind-moments.
In fact, they can't be divided:
They're all one & the same.
When the mind is two, that's called
sañña entangling things.
Inconstancy is itself, so why focus on anyone else?
"When the heart sees its own decayings,
it's released from darkness.
It loses its taste for them,
and abandons its doubts.
It stops searching for things within & without.
Its attachments all fall away.
It leaves its loves & hates,
whatever weighs it down.
It can end its desires,
its sorrows all vanish —
together with the weighty cares
that made it moan —
as if a shower of rain were to refresh the heart.
The cool heart is realized by the heart itself.
The heart is cool for it has no need
to wander around, looking at people.
Knowing the mind-source in the present,
it's unshakeable & unconcerned
with any good or evil,
for they must pass away,
with all other impediments.
Perfectly still, the mind-source
neither thinks nor interprets.
It stays only with its own affairs:
no need to be entangled or troubled,
no need to keep up its guard.
Sitting or lying down, one thinks
at the source-mind: 'Released.'"
"Your explanation of the path
so encompassing & clear.
Just one more thing:
Please explain in detail the mind
unreleased from the cause of suffering."
"The cause of suffering is attachment & love,
creating new states of being
On the lower level, the stains
are the five strings of sensuality;
on the higher level,
attachment to jhana.
In terms of how these things
act in the mind:
It's all an affair of being enthralled with sankharas,
enthralled with all that have happened
for a long, long time —
seeing them as good,
nourishing the heart on error,
making it branch out
in restlessness distraction.
Smitten by error, with no sense of shame,
enthralled with admiring
whatever it fancies —
enthralled to the point where it forgets itself
and loses its sense of danger;
enthralled with viewing the faults of others,
upset by their evil,
not seeing its own faults as anything at all.
No matter how great the faults of others,
they can't make us fall into hell.
While our own faults can take us
to the severest hell straightaway,
even if they aren't very defiling at all.
So keep watch on your faults
until it comes naturally.
Avoid those faults
and you're sure to see
from danger & fear.
When you see your faults clearly
cut them right away.
Don't dawdle or delay
or you'll never be rid of them.
"Wanting what's good, without stop:
That's the cause of suffering.
It's a great fault: the strong fear of bad.
'Good' & 'bad' are poisons to the mind,
like foods that enflame a high fever.
The Dhamma isn't clear
because of our basic desire for good.
Desire for good, when it's great,
drags the mind into turbulent thought
until the mind gets inflated with evil,
and all its defilements proliferate.
The greater the error, the more they flourish,
taking one further & further away
from the genuine Dhamma."
"This way of explaining
the cause of suffering
chastens my heart.
[At first] the meaning
was tattered & tangled,
but when you explained the path
my heart didn't move:
at respite, still, & at peace,
reaching an end at last."
"This is called the attainment
of liberation from the khandhas,
a Dhamma that remains in place,
with no coming or going,
a genuine nature — the only one —
with nothing to make it stray or spin."
With that, the tale is ended. Right or wrong,
please ponder with discernment till you know.
— Composed by Phra Bhuridatto (Mun)

It’s almost Thanksgiving in the grand U.S. of A. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I love getting together with family. I love eating food with them. I love drinking wine. I love recounting family stories, laughing, and just loving the people around me. Thanksgiving invariably has drama too, but what family would be complete without it? If you’re in the U.S. then Happy Thanksgiving to you too. Eat lots of turkey and enjoy your family.
Yesterday, my middle son Liam resurrected my iPod. Here he is, in a wonderful photo my friend Amanda Willis took of him for Christmas (cute guy, huh?)
This morning, I was signing up for Yuku so I can be part of yet another writing community. Over-committers R Us! I put the iPod on and the music of my whole life filled my ears. Back in June, Rob located the iPod, found out it still worked, and put it in our bag so I could bring it to Punta Cana. I didn’t run in the Dominican Republic though, so I never used it. There was too much drinking to do.
Apparently, I went through most of my CD collection (for you younger folks those are the little round metallic-looking discs similar to records, only smaller. What’s a record?) and downloaded songs onto this iPod a few years back.
I have my happy days: Dave Matthews Band, a little bit of Phish, Big Head Todd, among others. These are mostly from high school. Then morose days of college, when I was mostly pining over someone I’d never be with and discovering myself: Tori Amos, Pavement, Elliott Smith. Then days after college: Keane, Beatles, Wilco, Beck, Coldplay, among others. Then days after kids were born: Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Mumford and Sons.
These songs have given me a ride back through my life this morning. It’s funny how much music can bring someone or something or some time back to the forefront of your mind. My friend from college, the one I pined for, inspired most of my musical taste. He told me to listen to Indie and low-fi, which I still love. He introduced me to Pavement, Wagon Christ, Apples and Stereo. I didn’t know then, but he shaped my music taste forever.
Of course now I’ve added hip hop to my repertoire of music. There’s nothing better than hip hop to Zumba or workout too, and now my music taste is about as eclectic as it comes. I even like some country, which was always on my no-no list.
What’s on your play list this morning?

Perhaps I've been playing my Demon Hunter too much, but I’ll come straight out of the gate with guns blazing and make the statement that I believe this, the console version of Diablo III, is the definitive version of the game.
If that’s raised a few veins in the temples of some of you PC readers, I’m sorry about that – but hear me out. I’m not interested in numbers. Sure, the models and overall graphics of this console-ized Diablo III aren't as good as the PC version – at least they shouldn't be unless you’re playing on a really weedy system. But to that I say polygons schmolygons. If cosmetics are your only concern, then sure, the PC game wins. But to me, the most important part of a game is the experience it delivers, and that's where this version stands taller. It simply feels all the better when played sitting on a couch, in front of a big screen, with a joypad in your hands.
Because what Blizzard has done is fettled and tweaked the game almost imperceptibly to fine tune it as a console experience, and in doing so has unleashed the finest action-RPG, dungeon-crawling arcade experience of this generation.
In some respects Diablo III takes me right back to the early days of arcades. One of my all-time favorite coin-ops is Robotron 2084; a pure, no-frills shooter that gives you insane firepower… but pits you against an endless, overwhelming horde of enemies. It’s the classic one-against-many scenario, and it delivers pulse-pounding, adrenaline-pumping gameplay as you battle to best the myriad of monsters that want you well and truly dead. Diablo III takes that premise and evolves it with modern-day trappings and complexities, but without ever losing sight of what it’s really all about: visceral, up-close-and-personal action that feels like a constant fight for survival. It’s messy, it requires improvisation, and it’s utterly thrilling.
Console Diablo III's action ebbs and flows nicely, and feels a little tighter than the PC version. Everything starts out easy enough as you travel through the early quests, but once you reach the more serious dungeons, the intensity starts ratcheting up. What I noticed here is that enemies generally attack in “waves”, where you get bum-rushed by a howling mob that you have to deal with as a group. Perhaps it's me, but it feels a little more focused than the slightly more strung-out PC experience, where monsters arrive in a steadier stream. That’s not to say the console version doesn’t also have that, but the action definitely has a more arcade-like cadence, which I really like. Monsters zero in, the heat gets dialed up, and you have a frenetic pitched battle where it seems almost touch-and-go until you start to thin out the enemy horde and regain control of the situation. Mop up the last few monsters, take a breather, and then on you go, waiting for the next wave of monsters to charge in.
It’s classic arcade stuff, and it works brilliantly – especially with a joypad. I wasn’t a big fan of the PC control scheme: it works fine, but I just never quite got comfortable with it. But with a joypad, Diablo III feels natural, intuitive and… well… like it was always designed to be played this way. Navigating menus is a little clunkier, sure, but the action feels smooth and fluid.
What I did notice is that I was largely able to button-mash through the earlier dungeons. But as I began to get used to the game’s cadence and my ever-increasing arsenal of spells, my pressing became less frantic and more strategic. Almost like a fighting game, where you start out just hoping for the best, but after a while begin to perfect your timing and combos and become a really adept fighter. And as I got better, so the game similarly stepped up its level of difficulty, and became less forgiving. Of course, that's how games are supposed to work - but Diablo III does it incredibly well. Everything plays out on a difficulty curve that feels steep, but never so steep that it feels like it’s trying to stop you. It’s almost like the game is constantly encouraging you to do better. That if you just concentrate a little harder, you can get past that challenging boss, or navigate that particularly nasty corridor that’s overrun with enemies. So you do… and you do!
This level of nuance is something that only comes from endless testing and tweaking, and Diablo III feels as polished and finessed as any console game I’ve played of late. Not in terms of its production – which is superb for sure – but just in the almost imperceptible timing of the way things happen. If you’re a hardcore game design and mechanics fan, there’s a lot to appreciate in this. But if you’re not, it doesn’t matter – all it means is that the end product is solid, feels great, and is just plain fun.
And that fun amps up several magnitudes when you add additional players into the mix. While I do enjoy playing with friends online, I still love couch co-op most of all – where the physical presence of a fellow player can help precipitate truly memorable gaming moments. And Diablo III bangs them out one after the other. This is a superb co-op game, and perhaps the best of this generation. Working through its intense boss fights and spectacular set pieces is so much more enjoyable when you’re constantly coordinating moves with your partner (or partners if you have a trio of friends to play with). I’m not a gaming high-fiver at all, and neither is my girlfriend – but Diablo III elicited more than a few from us, and that’s about as good a case for co-op brilliance as I can make.
So there we have it. Diablo III is a highly sophisticated, beautifully designed arcade RPG whose action is visceral, intense, and exciting. It’s deep, it gives you an absolute ton of things to do, it packs some really enjoyable challenges, and its co-op mode is up there as one of the best of this generation. If that sounds like your cup of tea, grab yourself a big mug and get pouring.
The Nitty Gritty
- Visuals: Blizzard has struck the right balance between speed, detail, sheer volume of things on the screen, and aesthetics. Diablo III might not be the best looking game ever, but it still looks terrific - especially when it's in motion.
- Music: The sound effects are of particular note, and really help amplify the feeling of mayhem. The music is pleasant, but nothing to write home about.
- Interface: The work done to transition Diablo III from PC to console is generally exemplary. However, an area that does feel lacking is the menu system, which feels clunky to navigate with a controller.
- Lasting Appeal: Four acts, four difficulty settings, multiple characters and co-op mode deliver plenty of replay value.

Any workouts today ladies?
I did a lifting and a kickboxing class last night so i'm kind of sore. I will do a core class some cardio and legs tonight.
Leslie Sansones DVD - Just Walk. I love it because it changes every day, and changes intensity as you do it. Today was a Warm Up, 4 Mile Walk, Cool Down, and working the Arms.
i went jogging this morning.and did turbo fire.
Putting my 2yr old in the Kelti and walking to pick up the 4yr old. That will be a 1/2 mile breeze walk. The real work out is the return. My daughter usually is too tired to walk so 28lbs on my back and 34lbs in the front and away we go. The hills on the way back home are very steep. Then when the kiddos finally are alseep I will do crunches and work on my wavy arm fat lol. Now that its written I must do it!
45 minutes on the xbox kinect, then i went for a 3 mile bike ride. may not seem like much but it's alot more than i could do a few weeks ago.
I just got back from the gym.. I did a mile on the treadmill which took me 18.5 minutes.. then I did a full rotation on the 10 pieces of equipment, 2 minutes per station.. and did 50 crunches on an exercise ball... I was drenched by the time I left but I feel amazing! :)

- My beautiful wedding dress
- I just received my dress and love it, it’s better than I was actually expecting. The only problem is in the bust size, I have bigger size. But I went to an alterations lady and it easy to fix. It fits great everywhere else and the bodice is fancier than I anticipated. My husband says he can't wait to see me in it!!
- Gorgeous dress
- This is a great dress. It flows really nicely, good quality.
- very satisfied
- The material and quality is top notch for it to be so much less expensive than the stores. The embroidery is beautiful and the picture doesn't do it justice. One note however, I ordered ivory and was expecting a cream color. It is really white. From the reviews online, the white is a very bright white and I so I guess the ivory is a darker white. I am very happy with it though and the delivery was super quick (less than 3 weeks) and it was meticulously packaged. I would definitely recommend inweddingdress to anyone and everyone!
