Concept Essay – Importance of Eating Healthy
When thinking of the concept of “eating right” many people think it simply means consuming tasteless foods and useless fruits and vegetables. But eating healthy is much more than that. Eating healthy means more than consuming the recommended fruits and vegetables, but it also means having a balanced diet that is right for the body; for eating healthy is not one size fits all. By eating healthy, people are able to: supply their bodies with the nutrients needed to grow and develop; reduce their chances of developing chronic illnesses and diseases; and maintain a healthy weight.
Eating healthy provides the human body the nutrients needed to grow and develop. According to Dr. David Tayloe of Parenting Magazine, eating healthy starts in the infancy stage of our lives and continue into adulthood. Dr, Tayloe (2011) outlines the most important nutrients babies need: iron, calcium (helps strengthen our bones), zinc (works to improve our immune system and optimize our cell growth and restoration), and vitamins A (helps our vision), B (enhances our immune and nervous systems, helps improve our skin and muscle tone, and regulates our metabolism), C (improves iron consumption and prevents body from bruising), D (helps with bone growth), E (facilitate cell growth and work to improve our nervous system) and K (helps our blood clot).
The minerals and nutrients that are needed for our bodies are derived from many foods, such as breast milk, baby formula, vegetables, meats, whole grain, fish, eggs, fruits, whole milk, cheddar cheese and fortified cereal. Without the recommended servings of these nutrients, our bodies will not be able to grow and function properly. Making important decisions during meal time is essential to our daily life functions. For example, having a breakfast that is low in fat but rich in healthy nutrients can help improve overall thinking, help us remember more things, stimulate our creative thinking, give us energy and help our overall mental state. According to the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition (2013), our food choices each day affect our health — how we feel today, tomorrow, and in the future.
When we do not eat healthy, we are more susceptible to certain health risks.
The President’s Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition reports the major health risk associated with unhealthy eating habits includes “heart disease, hypertension (high blood pressure), type 2 diabetes, osteoporosis, and certain types of cancer” (2013). Eating one candy bar does not make a person have bad eating habits; just like eating one serving of broccoli does not make a person a healthy eater. Eating unhealthy foods on a consistent basis is what leads to chronic health problems. In his article, John Phillip (2010) provides a list of food additives that should be avoided.
This list includes artificial sweeteners, Monosodium Glutamate, or MSG, and Trans and hydrogenated fats. Foods that contain artificial sweeteners can lead to diseases such as lymphoma, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. The foods that fall under this list include sugar-free drinks, foods found in bakeries, and even gum. Phillip (2010) reports that these foods can increase brain aging. MSG is found in many foods, as it enhances their flavor.
On many food labels, instead of MSG, the term “natural flavor” will be used; though MSG is not a natural ingredient. High consumption of these foods can lead to depression, disorientation, eye damage, fatigue and headache. Trans and hydrogenated fats are found in fried foods and commercially baked foods. According to Phillip (2010), these foods can increase the chances of heart attack by 25%.
There are many factors that affect one’s body weight, including stress, genetics and hormones. However, large consumption of foods that are high in calories and fat can lead to obesity as well. When a person eats too much of the wrong food, or foods high in calories, without burning those calories by being physically active, then those calories are stored in our bodies as fat. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, eating the wrong foods has created an obesity epidemic in the United States: “about one-third of U.S. adults (33.8%) are obese and approximately 17% (or 12.5 million) of children and adolescents aged 2—19 years are obese” (2011).
Although exercising is good for combating obesity, making good eating choices can help combat obesity. In addition to watching calories intake, there are several ways eating healthy can be beneficial to combating obesity. For example, eating breakfast daily can provide us with energy to burn the calories that we will intake throughout the day. Eating smaller, low calorie meals throughout the day can combat obesity; instead of eating three really large meals at breakfast, lunch and dinner. Avoiding drinks that are high in sugar and calories, such as juice and soda can aid in combating obesity. Finally, eating smaller portions can help ward off obesity. By making these few changes in their diet, one can be on the road to eating healthier and becoming a healthier person.
There is an old cliché that says “we are what we eat”. If we eat healthy, then we are healthy; however, if we eat unhealthy, then overall we are unhealthy. If we eat foods high in fat, cholesterol, calories we will find ourselves at risk for developing diseases that are linked to those eating choices. Getting on the road to healthy eating can be as simple as cutting back on all the junk we eat that is high in salts, fats and sugars. It is important that we make good food choices so that we may live happier and healthier lives.

The poisonous anti-gay ‘morality’ Members of NC pastor Charles Worley’s flock
I guess we shouldn’t be surprised that Providence Road Baptist Church’s flock is now coming forward to defend its spiritual leader. Charles Worley’s “final solution” — a concentration camp for gays with its goal of extinction — is popular with some of his followers.
“Build a great, big, large fence — 150 or 100 mile long — put all the lesbians in there. Do the same thing for the queers and the homosexuals and have that fence electrified so they can’t get out…and you know what, in a few years, they’ll die out…do you know why? They can’t reproduce!
His followers say he’s right with this message; they mean it with all the “Christian” love they can muster.
Geneva Sims said she’s been listening to Worley preach the Gospel since the 1970s. She wasn’t surprised by the 71-year-old pastor’s now infamous sermon. In fact, she supports him and his message.
“He had every right to say what he said about putting them in a pen and giving them food,” said Sims. “The Bible says they are worthy of death. He is preaching God’s word.”
Providence Road Baptist Church member Stacey Pritchard agreed.
“Sometimes you’ve got to be scared straight,” she explained. “He is trying to save those people from Hell.”
Pritchard said Worley’s message isn’t one of hate. Instead, she interpreted it as tough love guided by Good Book.
Tough love — mass extinction. I guess this doesn’t say much about religious literacy or critical thinking skills there. Perhaps some of these sheeple will also be attending the Loyal White Knights of the KKK’s cross burning at dusk white unity event in Harmony, NC. It’s their kind of discriminating crowd.
The protest on Sunday at Providence Road looks like it will be a huge problem for these haters. Over 1000 people plan to come to the event (10 AM to 1pm), according to the Facebook page of Catawba County Against Hate ; from one of the organizer’s emails there’s word that a church in Maryland is cancelling their church service and chartering buses to come support those demonstrating; I guarantee you that counter demonstrators expected. National news media will also have its eyes there covering Worley and his believers in genocide. The outpouring on the side of peace and tolerance has been overwhelming:
A lot of you guys are emailing us and asking about the protest on Sunday. Originally we expected around 200 people. The response has been incredible with an expected 1,500-2000 people from around the country — and more people are making the decision to come stand with us as the world watches. Entire churches are chartering buses and driving overnight to join us on Sunday.
We have also unofficially received word that the church has moved services out-of-town on Sunday. To that end, we are meeting with law enforcement and other officials today to discuss relocating the protest to another location that will better accommodate this number of people with adequate parking and space.
Please continue to spread the word about the protest on Sunday. There WILL BE a peaceful, non-violent protest and law enforcement WILL BE present. This event will be safe for children and we are taking every step possible to effectively plan and organize.
Further details, we hope, will be released later today on this page and also within the event page. Thank you, from the bottom of our heart, for fighting back against hate with us.
If you haven’t had the pleasure of seeing Worley at the pulpit calling for his final solution, here you go:

Ian Trigg joined Groundswell Church to talk about the truth and joy of the Incarnation, theology, and the truth about Importance of the Virgin Mary in the resurrection this advent season. The two miracles (virgin birth and resurrection) fulfilled everything that we need as humans.
Advent is about waiting patiently and being hopeful waiting for the presence of Christ. Psalms are a collection of ancient songs dedicated to worshipping God with hope and confidence.
In Luke 1 verse 35 the angel answered Mary when asked how she could be pregnant, said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the son of God.
Because the Virgin Mary was obedient to the calling of God and allowed God to come as an infant through her the original great miracle was possible. When Mary’s life was completely flipped upside down her response in scripture was that she was a servant of God.
This is the response that God calls each of us to have when he calls us in similar fashions, calling ourselves out of our comfort zones. Ian Trigg challenges us to seek joy through scripture and the stories he shared to be the best version of disciples of Christ.
The Bible Isn’t good advice it is the good news that launches us to respond with a servant’s heart and the Virgin Mary plays a huge role in showing us the example of devotion that God wants from each one of us. We must continue to respond, and listen for what God is telling us to do.
Connect With Us:
If you have not been out to Groundswell Church before we want to meet you. Let’s meet for coffee. Contact us Here:
At Groundswell, we know that personal connection is vital in connecting with a spiritual community. Our pastors love people and would be excited to meet you for a coffee, phone call, or meal to answer any questions you might have and get to know you better.
If you would like to meet one of our pastors, please send a quick note to email@example.com and we will try to arrange a meeting asap.
How do you seek Joy during the Holidays? Comment below!
How has God called you out of your comfort zone in the past?

Dairy Management Agricultural Technology Certificate
The two-year Dairy Management Agricultural Technology Certificate program is designed to allow women and men the opportunity for specialization in dairy cattle management.
Bachelors of Science Degree
Students have the opportunity to specialize in dairy through course work, directed studies and undergraduate research projects.
Excellent opportunities exist for graduate studies in dairy science here at MSU. Entrance to the program is often limited and very competitive. Students take graduate level courses and conduct research projects that lead to either Master of Science or Doctor of Philosophy degrees. Along with conducting research and taking courses, graduate students are often involved in classroom and laboratory instruction, as well as extension activities such as Michigan 4-H Discovery Day.
Students interested in Dairy can join the MSU Dairy Club. The purpose of the MSU Dairy Club is to provide students the opportunity develop friendships with other students who are interested in the dairy industry and to increase their contact with the dairy industry in Michigan and nationally. The club meets twice a month during the academic year. Club activities include social activities, club trips to dairy events and farms, an annual cheese sale, an annual calf sale and annual club recognition banquet.
Students have the opportunity to become members of the MSU Dairy Judging team where they develop their dairy cattle evaluation, reasoning and communication skills. The team competes at a number of intercollegiate judging contests throughout the year. Also, students can participate in the annual North American Intercollegiate Dairy Challenge competition in which they develop their skills in practical dairy management evaluation, team work, data analysis and public speaking.
Several faculty members are involved in different areas of research in dairy science. Currently, areas of focus include reproductive and molecular endocrinology, gamete biology, reproductive management, immunogenetics, molecular virology, stress biology, nutritional physiology, and dairy nutrition. Research projects are conducted at both molecular and whole animal levels. Research projects are conducted on the MSU campus. In addition to on-campus facilities, several research projects are conducted at Kellogg Biological Station and the Upper Peninsula Experiment Station.
Extension & Outreach Programs
Faculty in the Department of Animal Science partner with campus faculty in other departments and MSUE Dairy Educators located in different regions of the state to form the MSU Dairy Team. The Team develops and delivers science-based, unbiased, scholarly information related to dairy science, production management, veterinary medicine, engineering, and economics for sustainable Michigan dairying. Many different approaches, options, and technologies are presented for the state's dairy industry to evaluate for potential implementation into their businesses. Adult extension education programming is delivered locally, statewide, and regionally as workshops and conferences, newsletters and other printed materials; and via the Internet, case studies, farm visits, round table discussions, and demonstration and applied research projects.
The Dairy Youth Extension Program coordinates state-level 4-H and youth dairy activities. Major activities include the Michigan 4-H Dairy Conference, the MMPA Milk Marketing Tour, and Michigan Dairy Expo and 4-H Dairy Days held each July. The state 4-H and FFA Youth Dairy Judging Contest, Quiz Bowl Contest, and Dairy Management Contest are all part of 4-H Dairy Days. The Michigan 4-H Dairy Judging teams are also part of the program and represent the state of Michigan in 3 national dairy judging contests. Educational workshops are held across the state for youth, parents, and leaders. This program is often the first experience youth and parents students have with Michigan State University and provides a basic foundation of knowledge about the dairy cow and dairy industry.
MSU Dairy Cattle Teaching, Research, and Extension programs are conducted at two animal facilities. The primary facility, Dairy Cattle Teaching & Research Center, is located on campus in East Lansing, MI, with a herd of lactating cows, calves and heifers. Campus activities are focused on nutrition, reproduction, physiology, disease-related illnesses, and general dairy cow management. Activities range from fundamental to farm-applied studies and student experiences. Another herd of lactating cows, calves and heifers is maintained at the Kellogg Biological Station Pasture Dairy Center (Hickory Corners, MI), which integrates automatic milking technology and pasture-based management with a growing focus on sustainable agriculture and ecosystem services.

Deepest dive in the Mediterranean Sea in a Triton 36000/2
The second phase (of five) of Caladan Oceanic’s 2020 deep-diving expeditions has now been completed after sub pilot and explorer, Victor Vescovo and His Serene Highness, Prince Albert II of Monaco ventured down to the bottom of the Calypso Deep, the deepest point in the Mediterranean sea, on February 10.
In conjunction with EYOS Expeditions and Triton Submarines, the team reached a newly calculated maximum depth for the Deep, using direct visitation and multiple modern sensors, of 5,109 meters +/- 1 meter. It was only the second manned visitation ever to the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea.
The Calypso Deep was first visited 55 years ago by Captain Gérard Huet de Froberville, Dr. Charles “Chuck” L. Drake (USA), and Henri Germaine Delauze on September 27, 1965 in the French bathyscaphe Archimède. Drake, Froberville, and Delauze reported a max depth of 5,110 meters (but no error term), thus making Vescovo and His Serene Highness, Prince Albert II of Monaco, the fourth (and second American), and fifth person (first Monegasque) to its bottom. Although the expedition did not set a new depth record, it validated that that the French mission in 1965 did, in fact, reach the deepest point of the Mediterranean Sea which until this point was not affirmed.
Victor Vescovo reported:
“I had the honor of being accompanied on my dive by His Serene Highness, Prince Albert II of Monaco, who acted as a scientific observer during the five-plus hour dive. We observed the bottom of the sea floor with evidence of marine wildlife but unfortunately, much more significant evidence of human contamination including numerous plastic bags, beverage cans, and even what appeared to be a discarded hose.”
The mission was executed using the world’s only certified, full ocean depth submersible, the DSV Limiting Factor, a Triton 36000/2 model designed and manufactured by Triton and fully accredited and classed by DNV/GL. This allowed the first head of state (Prince Albert II) to safely dive the deepest of any in history, to a depth of 5,109 meters.
Triton President and Co-Founder Patrick Lahey said:
“The successful dive to the Calypso Deep with HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco, underscores the importance of a fully accredited submersible with the capacity to make repeated dives to any depth. Triton continues to advance the technology that makes human exploration of even the most remote places in our oceans possible for the first time in history. We are incredibly proud to have helped a fellow ocean enthusiast and kindred spirit visit the deepest point in the Mediterranean Sea.”
The expedition was organized and led by EYOS Expeditions, who continues to manage the logistics and permitting for all of Caladan’s 2020 dives.
Rob McCallum, Founder of EYOS, said:
“We assist our clients to get to the most remote and pristine regions of the world. It is always distressing to see such evidence of manmade pollution, an indicator that the impact of humankind extends to every corner of our planet. Hopefully this dive can help bring more awareness to the plight of the oceans and inspire people to help drive positive change.”
The next stop for Victor, the Caladan Oceanic crew and EYOS is the Red Sea, where they will conduct a week-long, in-depth scientific mission in cooperation with the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology to explore the unique hydrography, biology, and geology of the area.

Most serious or life-changing falls occur in or around the home. In order for loved ones to stay at home safely, it is important to identify and remedy any areas that are potential fall risks. It is a good idea to speak with your home care agency about a personalized fall risk evaluation. The home care agency can do a walk-through of your loved one’s home and identify any areas that are potential fall or tripping hazards.
Here are a few simple precautions that every elderly person can take to help reduce the risk of falls at home.
Floors and Stairs
Make sure floors are even and there are no loose boards or carpet areas. When cleaning hard surface floors, do not use slippery materials like wax. Keep the floors free of clutter and small items of furniture. Remove areas rugs, as they are a major tripping hazard. The handrails on stairs should be secure and if possible, make sure there is a handrail on both sides of the stairs so the elderly person can hold on with both hands. If stairs are a hard surface, put traction strips on every stair and carpeted stairs should not have any loose threads or bunched carpet.
Make sure the bathroom is clutter free and it is easy to move around. Consider removing the bathroom lock, if your loved one falls you want to be able to help them quickly. Change out standard tubs for a walk-in tub or shower which is easier to get in and out of.
Do not let soap scum build up in the bottom of the shower and install grip bars in the shower and by the toilet. Install non-slip strips in the shower, sink area, and near the toilet.
If a bathmat is used, adhere it to the floor with heavy-duty double-sided tape.
Make sure the bed is at a height where your loved one can sit on it and his or her feet touch the floor. Keep the room free of clutter so it is easy to move around. Instead of a bedside table, install a wall shelf. This way, your loved one does not have to maneuver around the table but the wall shelf can easily hold things like a glass of water, books, and glasses. If the elderly person uses a walker, make sure there is plenty of room for it by the bed and the senior can get a hold of it without having to reach very far.

Information about purchasing goat meat ( chevon / cabritio) for restaurants, wholesalers and retailers in the Twin Cities and Western Wisconsin.
Hello area restaurant and retailer buyers,
As you might now know goat meat, or also known as chevon, is increasing in popularity with metro restaurants and customers alike, just a take a look at this Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel article, Goat Meat Wins Fans. I am a local source for goat meat in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area and Western Wisconsin.
I farm in western Wisconsin, just outside of Deer Park, which is about 45 minutes from the Twin Cities. Cylon Rolling Acres is a grass-based farm, which means our goat herd is raised on pasture during spring, summer and fall seasons. Since we practice rotational grazing, typically goat meat is available October through February, with some limited availability outside that time.
We work with a local USDA inspected facility for processing, but also are flexible to your needs and can work with your own meat processor.
Here’s how you can learn more about our goat meat:

Expert Administrative Assistant (Virtual) and Client Liason
We are hiring an expert virtual administrative assistant for our Head Coach and CEO.
This is a "emerging leadership" role. You don't need years of experience, but you do need to be very smart, super-organized, very flexible, business-savvy, and an excellent communicator who loves people, social media, non-creepy sales approaches, business development, and customer support.
You will play a key role in a fully bootstrapped, small-yet-profitable company (6 years old) that is growing and expanding into new worldwide markets. In time, if you are the right person you will be the CEO's trusted advisor and representative: researching, giving input, holding the CEO accountable, handling broad responsibility, and driving new initiatives.
This position may develop over time into a more significant role that suits your interests and capacity. (For example, this role could evolve into an Operations Director or Sales Director or Executive Coach or better if those are your interests and you are committed. You can write your own game plan with this role and use it as a springboard for a business career. However, if you only aspire to being a great Pepper Potts or Alfred Pennyworth, that's fine too.)
Our company culture: continuous personal and business development through learning, coaching/mentoring, agility, flexibility, openness, mutual engagement, mutual accountability, mutual respect, and mutual purpose. And we aspire to have fun while we're at it. You will learn a lot working with Priacta.
You do NOT need a long prior track record, you just need to BE the right person with the right personal and professional skills. Like Google, we look for emerging leaders at any age.
The position will probably start part-time (evaluation period) and expand rapidly (within 2-3 months) to full-time.
Required Skills (yes, ALL of them):
* Highly organized
* Anxious to learn advanced productivity and management skills
* Flexible, yet highly focused
* Exceptional initiative
* Prior business ownership with Web/social presence
* VERY comfortable with sales calls and closing sales (inbound or existing clients)
* Highly intelligent, learns quickly
* Detail-oriented and analytical
* Brilliant business writing skills (fun, yet professional)
* Excellent interpersonal/communication/negotia
* Teaching, training, coaching skills or skills as a therapist or counsellor
* Management or leadership experience
* Creative yet practical problem-solving skills
* Feels complete ownership of outcome of areas of responsibility
* Superb computer skills (manage and troubleshoot your own computer, web site, blogs, etc.)
Other Absolute Requirements:
* You must have a professional, QUIET work environment where phones can be answered and calls made for hours at a time without distraction
* Able to work within US time zones business hours 80%+ of the time
* MS Office skills
* Fast typist (we'll test you over the phone)
* iPhone-, iPad- and/or Android-savvy
* You have read (or are reading) "Rework" by Fried and Hansson
* GTD-savvy (or better still, Total, Relaxed Organization trainee)
To be considered, PERSONALLY answer ALL of the questions below. If you do not answer all the questions or your agency answers for you, your application will be discarded. The questions have been carefully chosen--this is your initial interview. (Sometimes there is no "right" answer. Relax and speak candidly for best results. Few people take time to answer them all, so if you do your application will be read personally.)
1) What methods do you use to remain "flexible yet highly focused" in an environment where a) you have assignments that require concentration, but b) the phone may ring or issues may come up and must be handled ASAP?
2) When and how have you shown significant, game-changing initiative? For how long? What were the results?
3) Tell us about the company where you had ownership. (Hint: ownership does not necessarily equal equity.) Why would we require some business ownership as a requirement for this job, even if that company was a failure? How does that answer apply to you?
4) Prove that you are an excellent writer.
5) Tell us about your prior sales/selling experience. (In this role, you'll handle inbound calls from prospective clients asking about coaching and other business services by Priacta coaches. You will also follow up with time-challenged people who were definitely interested but got side-tracked. What approaches do you think would be best for that follow-up?)
6) What excites you about this role? What do you hope to gain from it?
7) How would you a) notice and b) handle a worker who isn't demonstrating enough initiative?
8) What does Priacta need to do better? How do you know, or why do you think so?
9) Why else do we need to hire you?
We look forward to working with you!

Hong Kong, November 28: The Chinese scientist who claims to have created the world's first genetically-edited babies said Wednesday the trial had been paused, following an international outcry over the highly controversial procedure. He Jiankui told a packed Hong Kong medical conference that he had successfully altered the DNA of twin girls born to an HIV-positive father.
A total of eight volunteer couples-- HIV-positive fathers and HIV-negative mothers -- had signed up to the trial, with one dropping out before it was halted. Gene-Edited Babies Controversy Condemned By The Scientific Community, Chinese Government Orders Probe.

"I must apologise this result was leaked unexpectedly," said He. "The clinical trial was paused due to the current situation," he added.

Previously known as the Architectural Conservatory, this is the oldest of the 19th Century glasshouses at Kew. It was originally one of two pavilions designed by John Nash for the gardens at Buckingham Palace, but William IV moved this one to Kew in 1836.
Of a classical stone ‘Greek temple’ design, the building was adapted by Sir Jeffrey Wyatville, the designer of King William’s Temple . The twelve Ionic columns on the east and west façades are reputed to have come from Carlton House. Wyatville also wanted Portland stone columns on both the north and south façades, but costs obliged him to substitute Bath stone pilasters and forgo any decorative carving.
It has major historical significance, by association with Buckingham Palace and William IV. With both Nash and Wyatville involved, it is of considerable architectural significance, too.
This classical conservatory shows an elegant use of cast iron post and trusses in its spacious interior. Six Ionic columns of Portland stone to the east and the west façades support a glazed classical pediment. The intermediate bays are also fully glazed.
The building was originally heated by a patent system, by A M Perkins, of steam circulating through small bore coil pipes, but this was replaced by a large bore hot water system 30 years later.
The use and function of the Nash Conservatory changed as the Botanical Gardens evolved over the years. It first housed Araucaria and Eucalyptus; then in 1854 it was used for Australian flora. In 1861, it was renamed the Aroid House and used for South East Asian Araceae. When the Palm House was being restored in the early 1980s, it was used as temporary accommodation large palms.
After a period of disuse the Nash Consevatory has been fully restored and is currently being used as a schools’ centre.

Holywell Green for the second year running welcomed TV's Tim Hogarth to Holywell Green & Stainland United reformed church for an extremely well attended Antiques Valuation Day.
All kinds of valuable and not so valuable items were looked at by Tim, and some people even walked away with cash for their collectibles.
The church hall was busy all afternoon, with attendees patiently waiting for Tim to give them the low down on their possessions, while enjoying a cuppa and a slice of cake.
A further £500 was raised towards the Holywell Community Pub Campaign, but there is much further to go. Thank you to all of you who supported the Antiques Valuation Day, it is very much appreciated.
If you would like to find out more about the campaign, why not join us at the Duke of York in Stainland for one of our bi-weekly open meetings. Check the events calendar for details of the next one.

Please read Galatians 5:22-26 if you haven’t already. Today I am looking at what becomes part of our nature when we are led by the Spirit. As I do this study, I am going to study each Fruit of the Spirit in depth so we can understand and apply what God desires to see in us. The important thing to remember when reading through this list is that these “virtues” are not gifts, this is a list of behaviors that God expects us to be living out. Spiritual gifts are a completely different thing, and the Spirit gifts each individual differently; Fruit of the Spirit is what every Christian should be showing in their life.
The list is so different from the list we read yesterday: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Paul then writes that “against such things there is no law,” verse 23. Once again, emphasizing that when we are being led by the Spirit, we are walking a life of obedience because our relationship with God is right. We are following the law better when we are showing all the fruit of the Spirit than when we are just following a set of rules with no love in our hearts. A pastor I work with explained to me that the law that was given to the Israelites on Mount Sinai was actually more like a marriage contract. He explained that it was a covenant of love between God and the Israelites; but the focus was lost and it became a set of rules for a lot of people. That would be the equivalent of a couple agreeing to a set of rules to follow in their marriage and once they were married they follow the rules exactly but forget why the rules were there. There is no longer love and communication in the marriage; they are just following a set of rules. God doesn't want us just to follow the rules; He wants a life that is showing a relationship with Him!
Paul then finishes this section of living in the Spirit explaining that, “Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let keep in step with the Spirit,” Galatians 5:24-25. We have given up our sinful nature and have replaced it with the Fruit of the Spirit. The Spirit will convict us and steer us in the direction that God would have us go. Jesus promised us exactly that; He said in John 14:26, “But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.” What a beautiful promise and a gift of life! The Spirit will remind us of how Christ taught us to live!
Are you following the Spirit’s lead?

Ordering this fancy dish at a restaurant is usually a real splurge. Not these days though. "The price of lobsters will be cheap through the summer and remain reasonable through the fall," says Louis Rozzo, of F. Rozzo & Sons, one of New York City's top fish purveyors that supplies restaurants like BLT Fish. The reason: Fewer people are traveling this year (because of money issues) to places like Maine and Canada, where the lobsters are caught, so there is more supply on the market.
Snag a New Flat-Screen TV
In recent months, hi-tech flat screens have come way down in price, so now's the time to pick one up. "Technology has gotten much better on these kinds of TVs and they've been around long enough that manufacturers have figured out how to make better products for less money," says Crystal Stroupe, a Blue-Shirt spokesperson for Best Buy. "Flat screens are literally thousands of dollars less than they were a short time ago." Check out brands like Insignia, Vizio, and Dynex; they make really budget-friendly models.
Take a Fun Summer Vacation
Here's a secret that can save you big: Airfare prices usually drop after August 18th because that's when most people go back to school. In other words, fewer people are traveling so airlines lower their rates to entice customers. "In addition, as a consequence of the economy, flights to formally expensive places like Ireland, Spain, Geneva, and Moscow are now unusually cheap," says George Hobica, creator of Airfarewatchdog.com. So, schedule your summer vacation for the last weeks of August and pick a place in Europe to get the best price.
Another great tip: "Lots of airlines, like Jet Blue, have created Twitter accounts and will list special sales and promotions exclusively on it," says Hobica. "So, if you friend them, you may be able to get deals that aren't even advertised."
Score a Discounted Spa Treatment
These days, the money-conscious (as in, everyone) aren't exactly indulging in personal pampering. So to get customers into the spas and salons, tons of Websites list special discounts all over the country. That means getting the perfect pedi to complement new sandals or a treatment to get glowy skin is now affordable. Just go to a discount spa Website (try Lifebooker.com, SpaFinder.com, or Spavelous.com) and type in your zip code to find what offers are available in your area. Then, call to make an appointment and mention the site.
Sip a Posh Drink
A cool glass of bubbly is super-refreshing on a summer day. But think outside of Champagne and Prosecco. Cava is a Spanish sparkling wine that is just as tasty and can be found at really affordable prices. Plus, you can drink it many ways. "Because it has more bubbles than Prosecco, it's better for making sparkling cocktails like Kir Royales or mimosas," says Lyle Kula, DWS, wine consultant in New York City. Not in the mood for fizz? Check out boxed wine (it's not just for your grandma anymore!). "It's cheaper than wine in a bottle and it's become so popular that the quality is really good now," says Kula. "Plus the bag and spout are great at keeping air out, so it will last for weeks refrigerated."

Any cancer diagnosis is bad news. But if it’s liver cancer, it’s even worse. It feels like a death sentence.
With 600,000 fatalities a year, it is the third leading cause of cancer deaths in the world. What’s worse, you can have liver cancer and not even know it. By the time the symptoms appear, it’s probably too late.
But now emerging research indicates there may be a cure. A non-toxic compound that can normalize the rate of cell growth… Enhance natural killer (NK) cells… Normalize cell physiology… Increase tumor suppressor gene activity… And inhibit inflammation.
What is this exciting compound? It’s IP-6 – inositol hexakisphosphate – also known as phytic acid. It’s a naturally occurring carbohydrate. It is found in whole grains, wheat germ, dried beans, rice, nuts, and seeds.
Dr. Abdulkalam Shamsuddin is a professor of pathology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. He’s also a graduate of Dhaka Medical College in Bangladesh. He is founding Director and Chairman of the Board of IP-6 Foundation Inc.
Shamsuddin has been studying cancer formation and prevention since 1975. He theorized that IP-6 could stop the growth of liver cancer. So he conducted two studies. The results were published in Anticancer Research.
What Shamsuddin discovered could change liver cancer from a death sentence to a treatable disease.
The War Is On
You’ve probably never heard of IP-6. But it’s in much of the food you eat. It is basically a sugar molecule with six phosphates attached.
And now it’s a potential weapon against liver cancer.
In Shamsuddin’s first study, he treated human liver cancer cells with the compound. It inhibited cancer cell growth partially in some cells, completely in others. It depended on the dosage.
For the second study, Shamsuddin worked with mice. One group received human liver cancer cells that had been pretreated with the compound. The other group received untreated cells.
The result: 71% of the mice with untreated cells developed tumors. No tumors were found in the mice with the pretreated cells.
Shamsuddin’s conclusion: “These data show that [IP-6] inhibits the formation of liver cancer.”
Unlike chemotherapy and radiation, IP-6 doesn’t kill cancer cells. Or activate “apoptosis” (the process of programmed cell death). Instead, it makes them behave like normal cells.
Shamsuddin’s research could change the way liver cancer is treated in the future. Right now, the American Cancer Society believes surgery is the only answer. But what if this safe, natural compound could keep you from going under the knife?
Ivana Vucenik, Ph.D., is an associate professor at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. She co-authored a book on IP-6 titled Too Good to Be True? And she did a review study, with Dr. Shamsuddin, on the safety and effectiveness of the compound.
The study, published in The Journal of Nutrition, concluded that, “in humans, IP-6 not only has almost no toxic effects, but it has many other beneficial health effects.”
The authors also confirmed that though IP-6 inhibits the ability of cancerous cells to colonize, it doesn’t affect normal cells.
The Best Way to Fortify Your System With IP-6
Remember, IP-6 is found in whole grains, wheat germ, dried beans, rice, nuts, and seeds. Corn, in particular, has a high concentration of it. So do sesame seeds. And you can get more IP-6 in your diet by eating more of these foods.
But food is not your best source. IP-6 is bound to protein in food. It has to be freed before it can be absorbed into the body. Phytase is the enzyme that helps the body absorb it. But during the process, phytase can damage the IP-6 and render it inactive.
So it’s best to take an IP-6 supplement, either in pill or powder form. Look for one that also has magnesium and calcium. IP-6 binds to those minerals. And your body readily absorbs them… along with the IP-6.
Shamsuddin recommends 1 to 2 grams daily. If you’re at high risk for cancer, take up to 4 grams. And if you’re already battling the disease, increase the dosage to 8 grams. (Check with your doctor first, of course.)
Scientists are still studying the benefits of this compound. NHD will keep you updated on new developments as they happen.
To your best health,
Managing Editor, NHD “Health Watch”

Although the activity of Ashley Wood rotates around comic books, cover art, concept design and art direction, his approach can be undermined as a painterly one. The extensiveness of his work is based on breaking the conventions of the media in regards to a constant shift. Such an agenda provides freshness and a progression of the whole creative process. Despite the fact that Wood’s work is often commissioned and in the certain way affected by the client’s wishes, he manages to stay focused on comics where his imagination is most conspicuous.
Ashley Wood is born in 1971, in Australia. Over the years he has become prolific comic book artist and award-winning illustrator. Wood was involved in both the UK and international comic book industries and rapid success brought him to working on US market with top publishers Marvel and DC Comics. The most famous comic character that he has produced while in the UK is Judge Dredd. Wood became specialized in graphic novels and started working for Image company and later for Todd McFarlane Toys. Besides painting and digital art making, gradually he started working with movie and TV projects.
In 1998, Wood became an associate of Hideo Kojima on the project of first digital comics for the platform Sony Playstation. The reception of the comic Metal Gear Solid was outstanding, a complete commercial success, shipping over six million copies worldwide. That engagement brought him to realizing additional artworks for the PlayStation Portable game in 2006 and the comic book sequel titled Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. Together with his colleague TP Louise in 2004 Wood opens 7174 PTY LTD an Australian-based entertainment company specialized in the creation of entertainment features for the comic, film, toys, and video game industry.
The comic that established Wood as a burgeoning comic book artist was Popbot realized in 2000. He even received several awards for that one and in 2004 IDW company in association with Sideshow Toys produced the limited edition of Popbot polystone statues according to the cast of characters starring a talking rock star cat, his robot bodyguard, sexy women, robot ninja assassins, etc. Wood is also the creator of the World War Robot series of graphic novels, graphic novel Lore. In 2008 Ashley Wood and Hong Kong toy maker Kim Fung Wong founded new company under the name ThreeA on the basis of using an international network of development partners coupled with the vast experience of previous 7174. It soon became influential and award winning toy, entertainment, and publishing company, especially in the international terms because of their progressive approach in regards to technology and therefore quality.
Over the years Wood kept his dedication to the principles of his illustration technique which is a combination of traditional painting techniques, coupled with digital photography and graphic software. Nevertheless, some of his comics are about to be filmed like Popbot which is currently in film production with Resolution Independent and World War Robot is currently in pre-production with Disney Studios. The focus on details, the precision of constructing authentic characters made Wood a prominent figure who’s was not compromised by commercial success, yet he maintained and upgraded his personal style.

The topic du jours in college football these days involves which teams are the best in the country. We dissect the rankings each and every week and debate who should be in, and who should be out of the Playoff. It’s a fun and mind-numbingly endless debate.
I’m not here today to have that discussion. Instead, I’m going to present a different sort of rankings to you today. Instead, I’m here to break down the best teams this season against the spread.
Most of the time, when trying to learn who the best teams to wager a little capital on each week, you want to know what their records are against the spread. That’s certainly important, I wanted to take the time in this post to dive even deeper. Instead of purely looking at records today, I wanted to look at spread margin.
What’s spread margin? Well let me tell you!
Spread margin is the average difference between a point spread and the actual margin of victory or defeat in a game. If a team is favored by 10 points, but wins by 20, their spread margin in that game is 10. Make sense?
So while one team may be 8-2 against the number this season, another team may be 6-4, but with a more substantial spread margin, that may be a more helpful number.
The teams with the best spread margins are rarely going to be the best teams — that’s because the best teams usually need to cover a big spread. The bigger the spread, the harder it is to cover. So while teams like Alabama, Clemson and Ohio State might be public darlings — you need to dig a little deeper to find the teams who can exploit those point spreads.
Here are the five best Power Five teams in the country relative to the spread this season:
TEAM SPREAD MARGIN ATS RECORD
Iowa State + 13.3 7-2
Notre Dame + 11.4 7-2
Georgia + 10.1 6-3
Purdue + 8.9 6-3
Boston College + 8.8 6-3
This is a neat way to find teams that have exceeded expectations the most this season. We all know Notre Dame and Georgia have things rolling, and Iowa State has pulled off a couple massive upsets, but what about Purdue and Boston College? Two teams off the national radar who have been crushing the point spread so far this season.
Does this mean these teams will continue to be cash cows in the final few weeks? Not necessarily. After all, the top three teams on that list all failed to cover last week. Meanwhile Purdue covered easily against Illinois, while Boston College was on a bye. Going forward, it’s up to you to decide if you think these teams can maintain their unexpectedly high level of play, or if you think the Vegas numbers will catch up to them and you can go the other way to exploit an overcorrection.
Also, just for fun, here are the five worst teams in the Power Five against the spread:
TEAM SPREAD MARGIN ATS RECORD
Kansas – 10.9 2-7
Louisville – 10.1 2-7
Florida State – 10.1 0-6-2
Oregon State – 9.7 3-6
Arkansas – 9.6 2-6-1
Isn’t it amazing that Kansas tops this list? The Jayhawks are constantly 28, 35, 40-point underdogs and still can’t come close to sniffing a cover most of the time.
I’ll have my top gambling trends for Week 11, plus my best bets coming out on Friday. In the meantime, make sure to download today’s podcast with a FIRE teasers segment from Rossy Three Stacks, and all sorts of Playoff chatter with Alex Weaver.

Thursday, November 26, 1863
On Monday evening the Twentieth Massachusetts received orders to march the following morning at dawn. Tuesday morning, at the appointed time, heavy rain descended on the camp and subsequently delayed the march for two days. At 6:00 A.M. this morning, Thanksgiving Day, the Twentieth Massachusetts began a march toward the Rapidan River.1

Chieftain wrestlers open season with team title
To say the Tonganoxie High wrestling team got off to a great start could be an understatement.
The Chieftains, in their first trip to the Wamego Invitational, won the team title in the 14-team field with 206 points. Abilene finished second with 172.5, while Concordia was third with 166.5, Junction City fourth with 141.25 and Bonner Springs fifth with 109.5.
“It’s a good stepping stone in the right direction for our program and our kids,” said THS Jeremy Goebel. “Every time you go out and compete you want to do the best you possibly can.
“That’s what we did. We went out and competed and let points take care of themselves by just going out and wrestling.”
Though Tonganoxie did not have any individual champions, the Chieftains had three wrestlers finish second (Clayton Himpel, 120; Caleb Himpel, 126; and Matt Soetaert, 152) and another four with third-place finishes (Joe Wolf, 132; Asher Huseman, 138; Zeke Kissinger, 220; and Ty Barton, 285).
“It was a total team effort,” Goebel said. “Any time you can go and win matches and everyone consistently does it, good things are going to happen.
The Chieftains also had a handful of fourth-place finishes: Luke Carey at 160, Ryan Lynch at 170 and Thomas Miller at 195.
Lynch led the team in pins with four, while Julius Coats had the most takedowns with 15. Miller had the most reversals with five, the same number as team-leader Dalton Tavis in escapes and Clayton Himpel in 3-point near falls. Huseman led the team in 2-point near falls.
The team title also was a boost because competition-wise the Chieftains defeated strong programs in Abilene, Concordia, Bonner Springs and Junction City, Goebel said.
The Chieftains will look to win another meet title with the Eudora Invitational coming up Friday and Saturday in Eudora. The THS coach will look for a repeat of the performance in Wamego.
“Every single wrestler in that lineup provided a huge punch to us winning that tournament,” Goebel said. They all were on the same page.
“They All know what we expect and what we want from the team and that’s exactly what they did. It was a total team effort. All 14 played a huge role.”

Puchalska, Bogusia A
Limits to Democratic Constitutionalism in Central and Eastern Europe.
Full text not available from this repository.
Official URL: http://www.ashgate.com/isbn/9781409419839
In this book, Bogusia Puchalska develops an original theory of democratic constitutionalism and uses it to support the argument that constitution-making and law-making in constitutional moments should be politically, and not just constitutionally, legitimate. In doing so she expertly assesses the potential implications of the prospects of democratic consolidation and constitutionalism in Poland after 1989 and asks whether it is likely to be applicable to other transition countries such as Hungary, Czech Republic and Slovakia.
This original and informative book should be read by all curious to understand how the democratic learning and the foundations of grass-root constitutionalism might have been damaged in post-communist countries.

Some Arsenal fans on Twitter think that Mikel Arteta’s about to bring Willian back into his first XI for the trip to Leicester City this afternoon.
Winning the Europa League is now the Gunners’ priority this season.
Arsenal are 11th in the Premier League table and 11 points adrift of the top four, meaning that winning Europe’s secondary competition is the most likely route into the Champions League next term.
Mikel Arteta’s side produced a heroic effort to reach the last 16 of the competition on Thursday by beating Benfica 3-2 on the night.
It was a masterclass from Bukayo Saka once again and the 19-year-old enhanced his reputation as one of Europe’s most exciting young teenagers with two brilliant assists for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
But Arteta has since admitted that he’s going to need to rest the teenager in the near future to avoid burning him out, with Saka playing the equivalent of almost 28 full games this season.
The North Londoners have a clash away to Leicester today and some Arsenal fans believe that the unpopular Willian – who also got an assist in Athens during the week – is set to be rotated into the first XI.
Arteta will start Willian against Leicester
— Ö AND Ø account (@BlandArsenal) February 25, 2021
Willian with as assist after 98 Years since the last one for Arsenal.. Now wait for Arteta to start him on Sunday against Leicester.
— Dextrous. (@mainneli_) February 25, 2021
I have just realized Willian is going to start on Sunday… pic.twitter.com/8cKk2ozmwx
— Connor (@ConnorAFC1) February 25, 2021
Willian assist. I respect it. May as well start him LW on Sunday
— Santiago-Perez (@Gabz_Amadi) February 25, 2021
So you are saying willian is gonna start the game on sunday😭😭😭😭😭
— SaranAFC (@saranhora) February 25, 2021
Willian, who earns £220,000 per week at Arsenal, has had a fairly disappointing season, setting up four goals and scoring none since his Bosman move last summer.
The 32-year-old hasn’t started a Premier League game under Arteta since before Christmas, but that could and probably will change today.

Best Advice Ever: Raising a Proud Emotionally Healthy Black Child
Recently in the Creating a Family Facebook Support Group someone posted a fairly standard article on transracial adoptive parenting covering the typical topics of discussing race, creating diversity in your life, and preparing our kids for discrimination. The focus, as it usually is with transracial adoption articles, was on the reality of racism.
The discussion in the support group was lively, but one comment by Valarie Chavis, a black adoptive mom, stopped me in my tracks with its wisdom and insight. With her permission I share it here. Read it slowly and carefully because it is chock-full of practical information on raising a child of color in America. (On my personal copy, I’ve highlighted almost every other sentence.)
How to Raise a Strong Proud Black Child-by Valarie Chavis
Teach the Value of Blackness
Affirm your children as black without positioning their blackness against whiteness as the standard. Long before there was racism, black people were black. Creating an image and positive self-identity as a black person should not be as a response to racism. This is the mistake I think transracial adoptive parents make.
In several conversations with white parents who have adopted black children across the color line, the focus on one end seems to be mastering hairstyles and skin care. On the other end of the spectrum is a focus on racism. Somewhere in between is real life and the ability to live it joyfully and abundantly in black skin in spite of challenges like discrimination and racism. Raising a black child to thrive and excel is about overcoming barriers while maintaining grace and dignity.
Many have repeated the great words that, “… a black adopted child should not be your first black friend”, but here is another: To raise an emotionally healthy black child you first you must first learn what is wonderful and inspiring about being a black adult.
The Focus Shouldn’t Be on Racism
Black people are not lighter versions of white people, living in their shadows. The differences between being born black and being born white is NOT racism.
I just can’t imagine teaching my daughter to be a strong and proud woman by focusing our conversations on men’s sexism.
A high focus on racism will make your children weary and angry about being black. Racism tells them how others see them it is a constant reminder that others don’t value them. Parents need to help children understand the value and worth that comes from the black experience.
Racism is a manifestation of “white” people believing that some people have little worth or value. Telling your kids that racism is wrong, hurtful, or life threatening tells them how others see them, not how they should see themselves. It doesn’t tell them who they can be and how to reach beyond fear, self-doubt, and find strength and resilience that is part of their legacy.
Arming Our Kids Against Racism
The greatest armor against racism for black kids is to see themselves as a positive reflection of black hope, promise, and achievement.
White children are affirmed daily in every way. Simple things like advertisements in stores of people who look like them, faces on greeting cards and packaging. They are affirmed in school when white history is taught, and the “white man” is always the hero or the champion. Black children see those things, they hear those things and think well what have people like me every done of worth?
Black people have to understand themselves as to how they came to be.
- Is being black good thing? Why? How do I know that people like me have value? Where is the evidence in my history?
- What have black people accomplished?
- How have black people survived? How have they triumphed in spite of racism?
- What is the history of black people in America that doesn’t include slavery? How/why did they have the determination to read and excel even when it was against the law?
- Who are our black heroes? Who are the black firsts in America? Who are the notables?
- Who can I model myself after who looks like me?
- Why should I celebrate my blackness? How do I honor my blackness, recognizing discrimination but achieving anyway without being bitter?
Black children must know how to love the blackness before they can understand why others try to keep them down. One is a strength position, a position of power rather than one of acceptance of the status quo.
4 Things Every Black Child Should be Able to Do
A child should be able to articulate what they love about being black or their blackness. That is hard for many transracial adoptive parents because they struggle to answer that question themselves. I’ve actually had people apologize to me for being born black without understanding that I think it’s a pretty incredible blessing.
Parents need to help their children:
- See themselves as a part of historical significance. What did my people do in history? What did they do to make America great?
- See themselves as culturally relevant. How/why do “they” do things differently? Are we different and equal or different and wrong? Where can the cultural markers of my people be found in the American landscape (the answer is far more than rap music).
- See themselves as beautiful. What is the standard of beauty in America, where is my image included? Who are the beautiful people who look like me? Why is my face shape different, my lips, my nose, my hair, my body shape, and my cadence?
- See themselves as capable/intelligent. How do I know that people who look like me are smart? What intellectual pursuits do they have? What do they contribute to the achievement of America?

P.S. This advice applies to transracially adopted kids of all races.
P.P.S. When it rains, it pours. I just read another great blog, this one by AdoptiveBlackMom, a black mom raising a black daughter adopted at an older age: Thoughts on Racial Identity Development. She has a different take on helping her daughter love and value all types of blackness. This thought provoking blog helped me see race from a different perspective.
P.P.S.S. It keeps on raining. I just finished Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates. I think it should be required reading for all American, but especially for those who have adopted black kids transracially. It is written as a letter to his teenage son where he certainly talks a lot about racism, but he also talks about valuing blackness and recognizing the strength, beauty, and contributions of black Americans.

Gas Station ANPR SoftwarePlate.Vision ANPR Software for Gas Station Monitoring and Payment Enforcement
ANPR System will enfort payments and security?
Gas Stations are facilities that sells fuels and lubricants for motor vehicles. Everyday millions of people fill their cars tank mostly with gasoline or diesel to use their cars daily.
A multimillion euros business driven by petroleum prices in the markets that affect the consumer directly. But not only…
Petrol Stations Retailers faces everyday a common problem: people who refuel their tanks without paying!
Only in Portugal, the national association of petrot retailer ANAREC estimates the following data:
- When prices rise the number of non paying fuel increases
- 750 – the average number of customers fleeing without paying
- 225.000€ Average monthly loss
It seems a small value for the range of gas stations based in Portugal but here’s a thing: the profit margin per litre from fuel retailers is just a few cents. One non paying customer may compromise the profit.
To solve this type of problems there’s Plate.Vision! But how a ANPR/ALPR engine can help a petrol retailers stop people of running away without paying?
The process is quite simple. Plate.Vision uses computer vision analysis system that recognizes characteres within images. So here’s how it works:
- Vehicle identification
When a vehicle arrives at the Gas Station the CCTV cameras captures the vehicle.
- Plate.Vision + Central System
The images are processed by Plate.Vision engine and the license plate is recognized. The central system search for possible matches on the blacklist of infractors.
- Fuel Pumps
At this point the system know if that car is on the blacklist. The central system will:
- Lock: the hose will not working until you pay off the previous refuels
- Unlock: You free to refuel your car!
This critical process requires an high performance engine like Plate.Vision because all this process need to be ready until the driver take the hose to refuel.
Plate.Vision ALPR/ANPR software will help your Gas station be:
- Faster for customers
- More secure activies for you
- Processes enforcement
- Payment enforcement
- Reduce of non payers
- Blacklist record and others..
Interesting right? Even more when you see it in action! Talk to us
Know more about Plate.Vision?
Ask for more information or schedule a demo meeting with our team!
We would love to hear more about your business and help you out with Plate.Vision

What is secondary meaning?
For a mark to be protected as a trademark, it must be distinctive. If the mark is not inherently distinctive, it can acquire the necessary distinctiveness through the development of secondary meaning. Secondary meaning shows that the mark has some meaning to the public beyond the obvious meaning of the terms or images of mark itself. In other words, if the primary significance of the mark in the consuming public’s mind has become the source of the goods or services, rather than the product itself, it has acquired secondary meaning.
The issue of secondary meaning most often comes up during infringement lawsuits or in opposition or cancellation proceedings before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. There are two principal ways that secondary meaning can be established/shown in these types of situations. The first way is where a federally registered trademark has become incontestable through exclusive and continuous use for five years – such an incontestable mark is deemed to have the requisite secondary meaning. In addition, however, a trademark owner can show that a mark has acquired secondary meaning by supplying evidence of the public’s perception of the mark. There are a variety of factors that can be looked at here, including (but not limited to): (i) the amount and type of advertising which incorporates the mark; (ii) the volume of sales of the associated product; (iii) the length and manner of use of the mark; (iv) direct consumer testimony; and (v) surveys.
However, it should be understood that when discussing whether a mark has acquired secondary meaning, the focus is not on what things the owner has done, but on how effective those things were - thus, surveys are very important because they show the impact of the mark’s owner’s actions on the consuming public. That is, surveys can show whether a spectrum of the consuming public recognizes the mark as being distinctive.
Examples of marks that were not originally protectable but which have since been found to have acquired the necessary secondary meaning including KOOL (for menthol cigarettes) and CHAP STICK (for lip balm).

HID iCLASS card number
I uploaded a new version of PACSprobe today that also supports iCLASS cards on HID OMNIKEY 5×21 card readers. Just like with PROX cards you can select from HID H10301, H10302, H10304, H10320 and HID Corporate 1000 formats to read your card number and facility or site code. Reading raw Wiegand (a/k/a PACS bits) from an iCLASS card can be tricky, because this can only be done via a secure communication channel between host software and card reader. This is to protect USB I/O from recording and replay attacks. Wiegand data must therefore be encrypted under a session key before transferring it from reader to host effectively making implementations with this type of card and matching OMNIKEY reader a much more secure card application than an implementation with PROX (125 KHz) cards. I tested iCLASS support with HID OMNIKEY 5421, 5021, 5121 and 5321 readers using key fobs and card form factors. OMNIKEY 5427 CK is not yet supported. It uses a different secure channel protocol that hasn’t been ported from C++ to C#/SmartCardAPI yet.

|Reviews for The Girl Who Drown|
| Nonexistent Phantom chapter 1 . 12/26/2012
I must say I was quite displeased with your story. Firstly, your introductory chapter is hardly long enough to be called a chapter. Clipped chapters are bound to make potential fans unhappy.
Secondly, your grammar is atrocious. You pay no heed to proper tenses, as the title of your story indicates. The correct title would be "The Girl Who Drowned," or perhaps "The Girl Who Drowns," depending on what tense you were attempting to use. Your writing is littered with a plethora of grammatical mistakes which cause me to wince in disgust. You have misspelled the simplest of words, and have managed to break countless writing rules. The summary of your story alone is a deterrent.
I will rewrite your summary for you. You may use it. Take note of how much more enticing it is, drawing potential readers in...
"My name is Alex, and when I was seventeen, I drowned." Alex's life has never been easy. She was beaten nightly by a father immersed in a drunken stupor, and was placed into an orphanage at the age of six after a bullet stole her mother's life. But within the darkness, a light emerged: a young boy.
See how the new summary paints your story? It is free of grammatical errors and it sounds infinitely more interesting than the original summary.
The events in the first chapter were terribly confusing. I could hardly keep track of what was actually happening due to the amount of fragmented sentences as well as grammar and spelling blunders. In addition, I had no idea what the scene looked like. What does Alex look like? What color hair does she have? What does the house look like? Tell me more about Crystal and Addison. Who are they? Why are they in the story? I need not only a considerable amount of background information, but some description as well, in order for my rating of this little tale to go up.
You have the chance to change this story for the better. But I suggest completely rewriting both the summary and the first chapter. I always write my summaries before I write my stories so I'm not brainstorming ways to summarize my story at the last minute. Take a look at the newest story on my profile, a dark science fiction oneshot titled "Rise of the Planet of the Redheads," for an example.
Good luck as you continue to write, and feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

Rail service on Vancouver Island got the support of a majority of municipal politicians this morning.
But the management in charge of that service will have to wait until tomorrow before it finds out if it will get a similar vote of confidence.
Delegates to the annual Association of Vancouver Island and Coastal Communities conference in Nanaimo voted in a show of hands by an approximately two to one margin to urge the federal government to release the $7.5 million it has promised to upgrade the tracks.
While the vote is largely symbolic, it did send the message that a majority of communities still endorse the idea of a Vancouver Island rail system, despite recent concerns expressed by the Capital Regional District and the Regional District of Nanaimo.
Victoria’s Ben Isitt said there is no advanced country in the world without a high-quality rail system and forward-thinking communities need to embrace rail as a better economic and ecological option for the future.
“It’s been an incredible battle. If we walk away now, everything will fail,” Courtenay Mayor Larry Jangula said.
Jangula is also a member of the Island Corridor Foundation board. Owners of the railway, the ICF is the subject of the second rail-related motion on the AVICC agenda. The CRD is calling for a review of its governance and finances.
AVICC directors halted the debate of resolutions just before that one hit the floor, saying they had run out of time. It could resurface tomorrow morning at a session scheduled to begin at 8:50 a.m.
A handful of directors said any questions that exist about ICF management must be kept separate from the issue of rail service.
“The management is a separate question,” Isitt said.
RDN director Julian Fell said the RDN’s recent decision to pull its promised funding rendered the grant release motion — introduced by Port Alberni — moot. He pointed to an excursion train that toured Nanaimo Friday.
“That may be the last passenger train we see on Vancouver Island,” he said.
But the majority of delegates disagreed.
“There have been many obstacles placed in its way and the foundation has overcome every one of those obstacles,” Nanaimo mayor and ICF Chairman Bill McKay said. “All we are doing is asking the federal government to release the funds.”

The Republican-controlled Congress has approved a massive rewrite of the U.S. tax code that will overwhelmingly benefit corporations and the wealthiest Americans, while ending a central pillar of President Obama’s signature healthcare law. The tax bill cleared the Senate early Wednesday, then House lawmakers approved it 224 to 201. This is President Trump.
President Donald Trump: “These are the people right behind me. They’ve worked so long, so hard. It’s been an amazing experience, I have to tell you. Hasn’t been done in 34 years, but, actually, really hasn’t been done, because we broke every record. It’s the largest—I always say the most massive, but it’s the largest tax cut in the history of our country, and reform, but tax cut. Really something special.”
President Trump reportedly may sign the tax bill at his ritzy private Florida resort Mar-a-Lago. Experts estimate Trump will personally benefit from a tax cut of up to $15 million a year. Democratic lawmakers have slammed the measure, which experts say will benefit big corporations, multimillionaires, private equity managers and President Trump and his family, while hurting the elderly, low-income families, immigrants, people buying health insurance, and the island of Puerto Rico. This is Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York.
Sen. Chuck Schumer: “Now, we know they’re popping champagne down Pennsylvania Avenue. There are only two places where America is popping champagne: the White House and the corporate boardrooms, including Trump Tower. Otherwise, Americans have a lot to regret.”
The new tax code will slash the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent. President Trump has repeatedly claimed the benefits to corporations will “trickle down” to workers. But a number of corporate giants, including Pfizer and Coca-Cola, have said they’ll give the windfall from the tax cuts to their shareholders, not to their workers. The tax bill will also repeal the individual health insurance mandate, which experts say will cause insurance premiums to skyrocket. The Congressional Budget Office estimates 13 million Americans are projected to lose their health insurance under the plan.

For the past couple of years I’ve been working as a traveling physician in 13 states across the U.S.
I chose to adopt the “locum tenens lifestyle” because I enjoy the challenge of working with diverse teams of peers and patient populations.
I believe that this kind of work makes me a better doctor, as I am exposed to the widest possible array of technology, specialist experience, and diagnostic (and logistical) conundrums. During my down times I like to think about what I’ve learned so that I can try to make things better for my next group of patients.
This week I’ve been considering how in-patient doctoring has changed since I was in medical school. Unfortunately, my experience is that most of the changes have been for the worse.
While we may have a larger variety of treatment options and better diagnostic capabilities, it seems that we have pursued them at the expense of the fundamentals of good patient care.
What use is a radio-isotope-tagged red blood cell nuclear scan if we forget to stop giving aspirin to someone with a gastrointestinal bleed?
At the risk of infecting my readers with a feeling of helplessness and depressed mood, I’d like to discuss my findings in a series posts. Here I’ll discuss why electronic medical charts have become ground zero for deteriorating patient care.
1. Medical notes are no longer used for effective communication, but for billing purposes. When I look back at the months of training I received at my alma mater regarding the proper structure of intelligent medical notes, I recall with nostalgia how beautiful they were. Each note was designed to present all the observed and collected data in a cohesive and logical format, justifying the physician’s assessment and treatment plan.
Our impressions of the patient’s physical and mental condition, reasons for further testing, and our current thought processes regarding optimal treatments and follow up (including citation of scientific literature to justify the chosen course) were all crisply presented.
Nowadays, medical notes consist of randomly pre-populated check box data lifted from multiple author sources and vomited into a nonsensical monstrosity of a run-on sentence. It’s almost impossible to figure out what the physician makes of the patient or what she is planning to do. Occasional “free text” boxes can provide clues, when the provider has bothered to clarify.
One needs to be a medical detective to piece together an assessment and plan these days. It’s both embarrassing and tragic… if you believe that the purpose of medical notes is effective communication. If their purpose is justifying third-party payer requirements, then maybe they are working just fine?
My own notes have been co-opted by the EMRs, so that when I get the chance to free-text some sensible content, it still forces gobbledygook in between. I can see why many of my peers have eventually “given up” on charting properly.
No one (except coders and payers interested in denying billing claims) reads the notes anymore. The vicious cycle of unintelligible presentation drives people away from reading notes, and then those who write notes don’t bother to make them intelligent anymore.
There is a “learned helplessness” that takes over medical charting. All of this could (I suppose) be forgiven if physicians reverted back to verbal handoffs and updates to other staff/peers caring for patients to solve this grave communication gap.
Unfortunately, creating gobbledygook takes so much time that there is less old fashioned verbal communication than ever.
2. No one talks to each other anymore. I’m not sure if this is because of a general cultural shift away from oral communication to text-based, digital intermediaries (think zombie-like teens texting one another incessantly) or if it’s related to sheer time constraints.
However, I am continually astonished by the lack of face-to-face or verbal communication going on in hospitals these days.
When I first observed this phenomenon, I attributed it to the facility where I was working. However, experience has shown that this is an endemic problem in the entire healthcare system.
When you are overworked, it’s natural to take the path of least resistance – checking boxes and ordering consults in the EMR is easier than picking up a phone and constructing a coherent patient presentation to provide context for the specialist who is about to weigh in on disease management.
Nursing orders are easier to enter into a computer system than actually walking over and explaining to him/her what you intend for the patient and why.
But these shortcuts do not save time in the long run. When a consultant is unfamiliar with the partial workup you’ve already completed, he will start from the beginning, with duplicate testing and all its associated expenses, risks, and rabbit trails.
When a nurse doesn’t know that you’ve just changed the patient to “NPO” status (or for what reason) she may give him/her scheduled medications before noticing the change.
When you haven’t explained to the physical therapists why it could be dangerous to get a patient out of bed due to a suspected DVT, the patient could die of a sudden pulmonary embolism. Depending upon computer screen updates for rapid changes in patient care plans is risky business.
EMRs are poor substitutes for face-to-face communication.
In one case I remember a radiology tech expressing amazement that I had bothered to type the reason for the x-ray in the order field. How can a radiologist be expected to rule out something effectively if he isn’t given the faintest hint about what he’s looking for?
On another occasion I called to speak with the radiologist on a complicated case where the patient’s medical history provided him with a clue to look for something he hadn’t thought of – and his re-read of the CT scan led to the discovery and treatment of a life-threatening disease.
Imagine that? An actual conversation saved a life.
3. It’s easy to be mindless with electronic orders. There’s something about the brain that can easily slip into “idle” mode when presented with pages of check boxes rather than a blank field requiring original input. I cannot count the number of times that I’ve received patients (from outside hospitals) with orders to continue medications that should have been stopped (or forgotten medications that were not on the list to be continued).
In one case, for example, a patient with a very recent gastrointestinal bleed had aspirin listed in his current medication list. In another, the discharging physician forgot to list the antibiotic orders, and the patient had a partially-treated, life-threatening infection.
As I was copying the orders on these patients, I almost made the same mistakes. I was clicking through boxes in the pharmacy’s medication reconciliation records and accidentally approved continuation of aspirin (which I fortunately caught in time to cancel).
It’s extremely unlikely that I would have hand-written an order for aspirin if I were handling the admission in the “old fashioned” paper-based manner.
My brain had slipped into idle… my vigilance was compromised by the process.
In my view, the only communication problem that EMRs have solved is illegible handwriting. But trading poor handwriting for nonsensical digital vomit isn’t much of an advance. As far as streamlining orders and documentation is concerned, yes – ordering medications, tests, and procedures is much faster. But this speed doesn’t improve patient care any more than increasing the driving speed limit from 60 mph to 90 mph would reduce car accidents.
Rapid ordering leads to more errors as physicians no longer need to think carefully about everything. EMRs have sped up processes that need to be slow, and slowed down processes that need to be fast. From a clinical utility perspective, they are doing more harm than good.
As far as coding and billing are concerned, I suppose they are revolutionary. If hospital care is about getting paid quickly and efficiently then perhaps we’re making great strides? But if we are expecting EMRs to facilitate care quality and communication, we’re in for a big disappointment.
EMRs should have remained a back end billing tool, rather than the hub of all hospital activity.
It’s like using Quicken as your life’s default browser. Over-reach of this particular technology is harming our patients, undermining communication, and eroding critical thinking skills. Call me Don Quixote – but I’m going to continue tilting at the hospital EMR* windmill (until they are right-sized) and engage in daily face-to-face meetings with my peers and hospital care team.
*Note: there is at least one excellent, private practice EMR (called MD-HQ). It is for use in the outpatient setting, and is designed for communication (not billing). It is being adopted by direct primary care practices and was created by physicians for supporting actual thinking and relevant information capture. I highly recommend it!

Should you have educated yourself enough with the information available to us over the internet, then you should have realized right now that your pursuit of a job in the company ladder is futile at best. Basically, the concept is to get started on as an intern, then a regular employee, then move up to a supervisory and/or managerial position and finally up to the executive amount corporate and business business that you’re in. Personally, I have little or nothing from this kind of aspiration? nternet site too once dreamt of such things myself; however, the toll it takes to get to Where you want to be could at least take 31 years; 20 should you be exceedingly good at it.
60 we all can’t be exceptional and aside from the fierce competition in play, you’ll also have to handle the insurmountable amount of bureaucracy, racism, favoritism, gender inequalities and other negative things in order to literally move up the ladder. The trade-off is not an excellent settlement even from an optimistically assessed standpoint. I really would advocate that you begin your own business and the cheapest service it is by building an internet affiliate marketing blog or website. Affilorama Review
Determining Internet affiliate marketing
Affiliate marketing is a simple income-generating business method where you take those role of the marketer and help the manufacturers and sellers hook up with the finish consumers. That should be clear that whether you take a passive or active role in this business, you are by no means the originator or inventor of the products/services you promote. But you are certain to get a little portion of the sales as compensation nevertheless. It’s basically a 3-way relationship between you, the seller and the customer.
What Affiliate Marketing is NOT
If you get an unsolicited email appealing one to join an affiliate network and it is requesting for an upfront repayment, then you definitely have to scrutinize them and find out whether or not they’re scam or legit. Visit the Better Organization Bureau (BBB) and find out about the company, if you can’t find any, then go to internet affiliate marketing forums and conversation boards. They can know a lot regarding these con sites as news distributes fast in social mass media and forums. One more thing to look for is if these people can advertise you unrelated products or something that you will never be able to use, like the $350 “Secrets to Affiliate Marketing Success” book or some other catchy titles; although a few are genuine nonetheless they don’t charge you that high.
The truth is you can learn basic affiliate marketing from top ranking websites and weblogs. In fact, they can show you more useful information than all those specialized books and Dvd disks that other people can sell. Becoming an affiliate is free when you indication up to internet affiliate marketing programs and the only thing that will unquestionably cost you money is web hosting, which is around seventy dollars – $100 a season for your affiliate marketing blog. A number of expenses may include an unique website/blog logo (optional), your electric bill; hire a blog writer (optional because you can write down thier sites yourself) and probably paid advertising to promote your website or blog (optional).
Types of Affiliate marketer Marketing
What’s interesting about affiliate marketing is that you can generate commissions in more ways than most people think. Let me make clear the 3 different types of affiliate marketing and how you can earn through them.
one particular. Unattached Internet affiliate marketing – This kind of type of affiliate marketing is not going to require too much work from you, you don’t even have to put together an affiliate marketing blog like those for Amazon online marketplace Affiliate products. This is more like a PPC marketing (pay-per-click) where you just show affiliate advertisements on websites that allow this kind of promoting and then get a commission rate for every click through that web users make on the ads.
2. Related Affiliate Marketing – This kind of type of marketing is where you are required to incorporate some level of involvement and this is where you create an affiliate marketing blog or website and always show affiliate links on almost all of your website/blog pages. You also earn a commission for every single time a web consumer clicks through the affiliate marketing links.
3. Involved Affiliate marketer Marketing – This sort of marketing may require you to actually use the products/services before you write a review about them and you ought to be able to write a more comprehensive and genuine reviews.
You can choose from these 3 types of internet affiliate marketing methods, but most affiliate marketing online programs uses the Type 2 affiliate marketing marketing, which has some degree of involvement and online occurrence from your end.
Putting the Cogs and Wheels Together
Now that you have an idea of what affiliate marketing is all about and what its common problems are, you are ready to get started on your journey to financial freedom and a wealthy lifestyle! Affiliate marketing online is definitely like any other sort of business and you’ll have to plan a strategy weeks or even years in advance before starting, so I will give you the basic strategy of how to become an affiliate internet marketer, subscribing to affiliate programs, placing up your internet marketing blog and all the other important details about it.

We're featuring Chandni and Nigam's wedding today captured by Photographick Studios
. The couple were married in a place that they spent countless hours throughout their relationship at, The Hilton Washington Dulles Airport
! Being that the couple were dating long distance they would savor the precious hours they had together by taking the red eye back and forth from Chicago to Washington D.C. Photographick Studios shares:
"Throughout the wedding Nigam joked how he could recognize where the plane was going based on the trajectory – as Chandni rolled her eyes she still batted those pretty lashes at Nigam that made him smile and fall ever more in love."
"Their Hindu ceremony started out in the early morning and friends and family gathered to dance throughout the Baratt and watch the two of them profess their love for each other. He promised to always put her needs before his and not buy too many toys without her permission. She promised to always stand by his side and feed him when he was hungry. After a beautiful Indian Wedding they partied the night away with a gorgeous reception filled with amazing music, fantastic friends and a party that didn’t end"
The bride shares:
"I joined shaadi.com on a whim. At first it was so overwhelming but I really wanted to give it a chance. About a week after I joined, I received a message from Nigam on LinkedIn. He introduced himself and wrote “Sorry for just reaching out to you on here, but I wanted to at least take this time to say HI! I'm actually one of the lucky guys whose interest you accepted on Shaadi so I wanted to introduce myself..” His message was straightforward and seemed really genuine so I responded and gave him my email address. A few days later, we started talking thru email and chat, then on the phone. Our conversations were so easy and fun, I looked forward to talking to him every day and would even stay up late to talk to him when he was driving back from his long work days (that’s a big deal people, I never give up sleep). We decided to meet a few months later in D.C. and I was freaking out. He knew I would be, so the first thing he said to me when we met for the first time, instead of “Hi” or “Hello” was “don’t be nervous!” It made me laugh and broke any ice that might have been there. From our first conversation to now, Nigam has made me laugh and smile more than I have ever. I look forward to making him as happy as he makes me and can’t wait to officially call him my husband!"
Make sure to visit the photo gallery
to see all of the images from today's wedding!
There were so many cute details in this wedding. From the personalized groomsmen flasks, the Mr. & Mrs pillows, monogrammed sunglasses, the cupcake/cake tower, the rose petal aisle and bubbles after the ceremony - everything was so well thought out!
Thank you so much to Photographick Studios
for submitting this awesome wedding, and thank you to the bride and groom for sharing all of the details with us!

I.I. Rabi (1898 - 1988)
Isidor Isaac Rabi was born in Rymanov, Austria (now in Poland), on July 29, 1898. He was brought to the U.S. as a child the following year. He earned his bachelor's degree in chemistry from Cornell University in 1919 and his Ph.D. from Columbia University in 1927. His doctorate was earned for work on the magnetic properties of crystals.
Aided by fellowships, Rabi spent two years in Europe, working at different times with Sommerfield, Bohr, Pauli, Stern and Heisenberg. On his return to the U.S. in 1929, he was appointed lecturer of Theoretical Physics at Columbia University, and after promotion through the various grades became professor in 1937.
In 1930, Rabi conducted investigations into the nature of the force binding protons to atomic nuclei. This research eventually led to the creation of the molecular-beam magnetic-resonance detection method, for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1944.
In 1940, Rabi was granted leave from Columbia to work as Associate Director of the Radiation Laboratory at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology on the development of radar and the atomic bomb. He reluctantly agreed to serve as a visiting consultant who would come and go from Los Alamos. In this unusual capacity, he was one of the very few exceptions to the strict security rules. General Groves made a special effort to bring Rabi, who had been a student with Oppenheimer and maintained a close and mutually respectful relationship, out to Los Alamos for the days leading up to the Trinity test so that he could help Oppenheimer maintain his sanity under such intense pressure.
In 1945, Rabi returned to Columbia as executive office of the Physics Department. He was also one of the founders of the Brookhaven National Laboratory for Atomic Research, Long Island, an organization devoted to research into the peaceful uses of atomic energy, and the organization known as CERN. His post-war research contributed to the inventions of the laser and the atomic clock.
In 1959, Rabi was appointed a member of the Board of Governers of the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovoth, Israel. He held foreign memberships to the Japanese and Brazilian Academies and was a member of the General Advisory Committee to the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency and the United States National Commission for UNESCO. In 1955, at the International Conference on Peaceful Uses of Atomic Energy in Geneva, he was the U.S. delegate and vice president. He was also a member of the Science Advisory Committee of the International Atomic Energy Agency.
Rabi married Helen Newmark in 1926, and they had two daughters. He died on January 11, 1988.

... if I had a million dollars... I would buy this Aesop's Fables book, according to Sir Roger L’Estrange, and read it everyday absorbing Aesop's Fables and one of my favorite artists, Alexander Calder. Aesop's Fables is like a bible for me and Calder inspires me to no end with his remarkable line work and creativity. What a combination.
Above is the fable, A Lion and an Ass. I love the moral featured above. I re keyed the moral in Adobe Illustrator for easier readability.

Please welcome my good friend Caroline Warfield who has a new release to share!
Something about a sharp cool wind and changing leaves makes me long for new notebooks, fresh pencils, and an empty organizer. Twelve years of school—not to mention college—ingrained a sense the new things happening in Autumn. I can’t resist the urge to clear my desk and begin with an empty page.
Of course, life isn’t like that for most adults, and certainly not like that for busy writers. We all have overlapping projects. To produce a book we have to plan/draft/edit/send to beta readers/edit/submit to editor/respond to edits/promote pre-presale/announce and release/promote/promote/promote. Even as one book moves part way through that maze, another book inevitably comes into focus and begins a parallel journey down the same road. We might have three or more in various stages of completion.
When fall arrives and the temptation to scrap it all and start something new rears its head, I can’t just drop the works in progress, but I may at least clean my desk, simplify my schedule, question my goals, and plunge into the next book with fresh eyes, even as the other projects move inexorably forward.
This particular fall has given me a flood of new beginnings. Last week I launched not only a new book, but also a whole new series. Even as I announce the first book in the series, The Renegade Wife, I’m finishing the first draft of The Reluctant Wife, and planning the third, The Unexpected Wife. Three heroes—two brothers and their cousin—seek their fortune in various parts of the empire, Canada, India, and China.
- To celebrate, I’ll give a kindle copy of The Renegade Wife to one randomly selected person who comments on this post. If the winner shares a mailing address, I have a wooden magnet with traditional design by first nations people from my research trip to Canada to send as well. Tell me, what is your best—or worst—memory of new beginnings in autumn?
About the Series, Children of Empire
Raised with all the privilege of the English aristocracy, forged on the edges of the British Empire, men and woman of the early Victorian age seek their own destiny and make their mark on history. The heroes and heroines of Caroline’s Dangerous Series overcame challenges even after their happy ending. Their children seek their own happiness in distant lands in Children of Empire.
About Book 1, The Renegade Wife
Upper Canada, 1832
Betrayed by his cousin and the woman he loved, Rand Wheatly fled England, his dreams of a loving family shattered. He clings to his solitude in an isolated cabin in Upper Canada. Returning from a business trip to find a widow and two children squatting in his house, he flies into a rage. He wants
her gone, but her children are sick and injured, and his heart is not as hard as he likes to pretend.
Meggy Blair harbors a secret, and she’ll do whatever it takes to keep her children safe. She’d hopes to hide with her Ojibwa grandmother, if she can find the woman and her people. She doesn’t expect to find shelter with a quiet, solitary man, a man who lowers his defensive walls enough to let Meggy and her children in.
Their idyllic interlude is shattered when Meggy’s brutal husband appears to claim his children. She isn’t a widow, but a wife, a woman who betrayed the man she was supposed to love, just as Rand’s sweetheart betrayed him. He soon discovers why Meggy is on the run, but time is running out. To save them all, Rand must return and face his demons.

About the Author
Award winning author Caroline Warfield has been many things: traveler, librarian, poet, raiser of children, bird watcher, Internet and Web services manager, conference speaker, indexer, tech writer, genealogist—even a nun. Happily retired to the urban wilds of eastern Pennsylvania, she reckons she is on at least her third act, happily working in an office surrounded by windows while she lets her characters lead her to adventures in England and the far-flung corners of the British Empire. She nudges them to explore the riskiest territory of all, the human heart.

Some designer watches have a long and distinguished history. In 1847, some of these elegant timepieces were introduced to the British public by a merchant from Staffordshire named Samuel Sewall. The merchant was looking for ways to advertise his products in a way that would be different from all other types of watches that were being sold at the time. Because of this, he decided to use a watch brand that had a reputation for fine quality, elegant design, and accuracy. His choice of a watch brand was the Swiss-based manufacturer Swatch.
The Vast Selection of Watches
The ダニエルウェリントン新作腕時計 is available in the United Kingdom and Australia. The Daniel Wellington brand can be found on many occasions, including birthday and anniversary gifts, gift-giving programs, corporate giveaways, and trade shows. The vast selection of men’s watches that accompany these fine timepieces also makes them stand out from all other watch brands. Watches with unique dials, unusual or intricate features, and beautiful straps and bands will help to make a handsome addition to any man’s watch collection.
Of course, what makes a ダニエルウェリントン新作 Iconic Link Ceramic watch authentic is the Swiss-made movements within its case. These movements allow for the smooth functioning of these fine watches. The smooth, reliable movement of a Daniel Wellington movement inside the watch allows for accurate, clean-looking time displays. The precision of this watch movement is so great that some models may be too expensive for most men. However, this price is well worth the watch’s features because these watches deliver on their promises of class and prestige.
All Daniel Wellington watches offer a choice of watch styles for men of all ages. Men who enjoy sport, sailing, action, or taking an active interest in the world around them will appreciate the rugged, yet sophisticated designs of many of the watch styles offered by this brand. Some of these styles include men’s sports watches, luxury timepieces for men, watches for business people, and designer sport watches for men. Also, there are affordable, simple-looking, yet handy sports watches as well.
In addition to the many stylish, finely-crafted men’s Daniel Wellington 春におススメの腕時計, the brand also offers a host of quality men’s accessories. Some of these items include but are not limited to, wristwatches, bands, and carousels. The wristwatches and bands are designed specifically to work with all of Daniel Wellington’s watches and are crafted to withstand all of the normal activities that a man might experience daily. The wristwatches and bands are also easy to take care of, and most models are water-resistant up to a certain depth. Also, these timepieces come with Daniel Wellington’s traditional warranty that is making sure to cover all of the product’s major components.
Daniel Wellington watches are designed to last a lifetime, and there is always something new and interesting to see and to try. These watches are not only beautiful and elegant, but they are also designed to be functional and reliable. All of these features make Daniel Wellington watches an excellent investment, whether you are buying it for yourself or a loved one.

Micropump with a 3-level float switch sensor for air conditioners up to 10 kW.
This float type pump is mainly used in air conditioners with a limited space inside, e.g. wall mounted mini split and ceiling units.The small sensor can easily be adapted to the air conditioner´s condensate drain hose.
The EE1000 system consists of a pump unit and a separate 3-level float switch sensor. Beside the on/off function the system offers a high level, potential free NO / NC alarm switch (230 V, 8 A ohmic load).
• Pump unit (L x W x H): 77 x 37,5 x 62 mm.
• Electrical spec.: 230 V, 50 / 60 Hz.
• Power Consumption: Operation 14 W.
Standby 1 W.
• Max. flow rate: 10 l/h.
• Max. delivery height: 10 m.
• Max. suction height: 1.5 m.
• Sensor unit (L x W x H): 82 x 39 x 39 mm.
• Alarm switch: 230 V/ 8 A (ohmic load)
NO/NC (normally open/normally closed)
• Float switch operating points: see rear of Accessories „Float detector“.
• Impervious to blockage or contamination due to unique valve design & large piston bore.
Eckerle offers you two different pump systems:
1. Electromagnetic pump:
Usually found in two-part systems or split-systems such as the EE600, EE1000, EE1800, E1200 and EE1750, but also used in certain tank pumps such as the EE1650 in order to achieve higher lifting heights. Most Eckerle electromagnetic pumps have non return “duckbill valves”, whose large bore ensure that they are significantly less sensitive to dirt.
2. Centrifugal pump:
Almost all tank pumps are equipped with this robust technology, for example the EE150, EE300 and the EE400. The main features of this volumetrically wide-open displacement device are its high displacement volumes and insensitivity to dirt. Special encapsulated versions with a higher protection rating – like the EE400M/EE400 – can be operated in tough environments with high humidity levels and
with media that is far from the PH neutral range.

The video is from MSNBC.
The tweet links to a Pajamas Media story:
Long a refuge of partisan activists and ideological crusaders, the Section has been filling its ranks over the last 30 months with like-minded liberals ready to do the bidding of left-wing advocacy organizations. Sixteen attorneys have come on board in this hiring binge. Who are these new radicals?
Bryan Sells: Mr. Sells was recently hired as one of the Voting Section’s new deputy chiefs. He comes to the Department from the ACLU’s Voting Rights Project, where he worked for nearly 10 years as a Senior Staff Counsel.
Meredith Bell-Platts: The other new deputy chief hired by the Voting Section, Meredith Bell-Platts, also comes from the ACLU’s Voting Rights Project, where she, too, spent nearly 10 years.
Anna Baldwin: While all of the new trial attorneys hired into the Voting Section have streaks of radicalism, few can match Ms. Baldwin. A financial contributor to the Obama presidential campaign.
Jenigh Garrett: Ms. Garrett worked for approximately five years as an assistant counsel at the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund (LDF), where she worked on voting-related litigation.

By MATT MURPHY
BOSTON — Richard Sullivan Jr., the state secretary of energy and environmental affairs and former Westfield mayor, is exploring a run for statewide office in 2014 and could be interested in running for either governor or lieutenant governor, according to Democratic sources.
Before joining the Patrick administration in 2007, Sullivan spent 13 years as the mayor of Westfield. As a candidate for governor, he could add a Western Massachusetts perspective to a race still taking shape, but predominantly focused on potential candidates from near Boston.
With Gov. Deval L. Patrick not planning to seek a third term and Lt. Gov. Tim Murray deciding against running for governor next year, there could also be an opening in the field for someone else within the Patrick administration to step forward who could tap into the governor’s political network and run for statewide office.
Sullivan is said to be considering several constitutional offices, including governor or lieutenant governor.
Sullivan would not comment on the possibility of him entering the race, but did not deny his interest or that he has begun talking with people inside the Democratic Party about his chances.
“I’m focused on the governor’s campaign for investments in education and transportation, and when we get through this campaign there will be plenty of time for politics,” Sullivan told the News Service on Friday after Patrick testified before the Legislature on his budget plan.
Sullivan was among the members of Patrick’s Cabinet who committed in January to serve out the remainder of Patrick’s second term, a commitment the governor sought from his top advisers, precipitating the appointments of new administration and finance, public safety, education, and health and human services secretaries.
Sullivan has not yet reached a point when he would consider resigning from the administration to campaign, according to sources near Sullivan.
Prior to taking over as secretary of energy and environmental affairs at the start of Patrick’s second term in 2010, Sullivan joined the governor’s team in June 2007 as Department of Conservation and Recreation commissioner.
Stephen Kerrigan, a Lancaster native and former staffer to Sen. Edward Kennedy, is the only declared candidate for lieutenant governor, though many other names of public officials have been floated as possible contenders.
Kerrigan launched his campaign after running the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte last summer and co-chairing President Barack Obama’s second inaugural in January. He has already won the support of Boston Mayor Thomas Menino.
The Democratic field for governor is equally wide open with former Wellesley Selectman Joseph Avellone the only declared candidate in the race. Treasurer Steven Grossman is seriously leaning toward running for governor, and others such as former Obama health official Dr. Donald Berwick, state Sen. Daniel Wolf, Congressman Michael Capuano, Somerville Mayor Joseph Curtatone and Salem Mayor Kimberly Driscoll have either expressed interest or are said to be considering the race.

Thunder 106, Wizards 105, OT: Kevin Durant scored 33 points, including a tying three-pointer late in regulation and the go-ahead free throws in overtime that sent host Oklahoma City past Washington last night.
John Wall missed a driving layup attempt as time expired for Washington, which was seeking its third straight victory. Bradley Beal scored a career-high 34 points for the Wizards, who made just 13 of 26 free throws.
Oklahoma City trailed 92-82 with 3:26 left in the fourth quarter, but went on a 14-4 run. Durant capped the burst with a straightaway three-pointer with 13.6 seconds left.
Beal missed a running 12-footer as time expired in regulation while being closely guarded by Serge Ibaka.
Ibaka had 25 points and 12 rebounds for the Thunder, which overcame a 4-of-16 shooting performance by All-Star guard Russell Westbrook, who scored 13 points.
Spurs 120, Knicks 89: Danny Green had 24 points and a career-high 10 rebounds, and visiting San Antonio won its fourth straight game.
Kawhi Leonard scored 18 points and Tony Parker had 17 in a game that was close for about three minutes. San Antonio scored the first 10 points, led by as many as 37 and was in control in between.
The Spurs spoiled the season debut of Knicks guard J.R. Smith, last season’s Sixth Man of the Year. Suspended the first five games of the season for violating the NBA’s anti-drug program, Smith shot 1 of 9 and scored five points in 20 minutes.
Suns 101, Pelicans 94: Eric Bledsoe scored 24 points and Markieff Morris came off the bench to score 23 for host Phoenix.
Timberwolves 113, Lakers 90: Kevin Martin scored 27 points, Kevin Love had 18 of his 25 points during Minnesota’s 47-point first quarter, and the Timberwolves snapped a 22-game losing streak against host Los Angeles.
Bobcats coach returns after heart procedure
The Charlotte Bobcats said coach Steve Clifford will coach tonight against the Atlanta Hawks after having two stents placed in his heart on Friday.
The Bobcats’ first-year head coach checked himself into a Charlotte, N.C., hospital with chest pains on Thursday night. He was hospitalized overnight and doctors performed the procedure the following day.
Associate head coach Patrick Ewing filled in as coach against the Knicks on Friday night, a game the Bobcats lost 101-91 to fall to 3-3.
Clifford, 52, joined the Bobcats during the offseason, replacing Mike Dunlap, who was fired after one season.
NBA, players assist with relief efforts
The NBA and NBA Players Association are donating $250,000 to the U.S. Fund for UNICEF in support of UNICEF’s emergency relief efforts in areas of the Philippines ravaged by Typhoon Haiyan.
Also, Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra, whose mother is from the Philippines, will appear in a public-service announcement for the organization to help raise funds for the relief efforts.

Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV)
By: Valerie Davi, SPT
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo, also commonly known as positional vertigo or even more simply as BPPV, is a condition that affects and challenges the vestibular system. This condition affects primarily the inner ear (one part of our vestibular system) and results in multiple bouts of positional vertigo.1 This is a long name that may sound intimidating so let’s first break down all these four words to help better understand how this condition works.
- Benign: meaning it is not life threatening
- Paroxysmal: meaning the episodes are brought on suddenly and quickly
- Positional: meaning that the episodes of vertigo are caused by certain positions of your head
- Vertigo: which is that feeling or sensation of room spinning or you are spinning and is often accompanied by dizziness
Most people who go to see their doctors about dizziness or room spinning often get the diagnosis of vertigo. They are then sent to physical therapists that specialize in vestibular rehabilitation, much like the therapists at the Willow Grove, Hatboro and Glenside Physical Therapy. But some patients do not get all the information as to why this condition happens, how to treat it or what BPPV even is. Let's begin with some general information about this condition!
- BPPV is the MOST COMMON vestibular disorder when considering all ages1
- Between 17 - 42% of people who have vertigo get the diagnosis BPPV1
- Lifetime prevalence of BPPV is 2.4%1
- Women are typically more affected than men1
- Most common in individuals between their 50s and 70s1 (but it can happen to anyone)
- Recovery can occur without treatment within 1 month in 20% of people with BPPV and 50% in 3 months (although we highly suggest getting treatment when possible)1
- The effects of BPPV can put you at an increased risk of falls and affect how well you can perform everyday activities.1
How BPPV works
- While this can be quite a complicated process, here is a simplified version of what happens. In each side of our inner ears we have 3 canals and 2 otolith organs which are all connected (no one can actually see any of these structures because they are so tiny and so deep within our heads). Within these otolith organs there are otoconia crystals made of calcium carbonate. With BPPV, these crystals can get dislodged (the cause can be hard to determine) and end up in one of these 3 canals where they do not belong. This then leads the symptoms of room spinning, nausea and sometimes vomiting.
- Based on the report you give us, we begin to do testing in order to rule out any other possible causes of vertigo, test your balance and assess your walking. We then begin positional testing specific for BPPV (Hallpike and Roll positions). The reason for this is because we are unable to see your inner ear; we have to use your eye movements in response to these different positions to be able to determine which canals the crystals are in. We do this at Willow Grove, Hatboro and Glenside PT by using specialized goggles that give us an amplified picture of your eyes while you are completely in the dark throughout these positions. Once that is determined we move on to the next step which is treatment!
- Once we figure out where these crystals are out of place, we begin to use certain maneuvers (Canalth Repositioning Maneuvers, Barbecue Repositioning Maneuvers, Liberatory Maneuvers etc) to get these crystals out of the canals where they do not belong!
- We also teach you how to do these treatments at home in case of a re-occurrence of BPPV
- And if you are uncomfortable with self treatment you are always welcome to come into one of our offices for further treatment
- Another part of treatment is addressing balance!
- Balance can be affected with BPPV so it is also important to make sure your balance is as good as it can be so that you are not at a risk of falling!
- Some ways we can improve balance include:
- Statically (sitting or standing) or dynamically (walking)
- With eyes open and closed (closed typically makes maintaining your balance harder)
- Using foam pads, hurdles and stepping blocks to really challenge your balance systems!
- Strengthening your hips, knees and ankles as they are a part of maintaining your balance too!
- Medications such as Meclizine/antivert which are vestibular suppressants are often ordered for patients, but according to the Clinical Practice Guideline for BPPV these cause more harm than good and are NOT indicated for BPPV as they may increase falls risk and do not correct the problem of displaced crystals. These medications are only beneficial for significant nausea. (1)

Liverpool may have lost a two goal lead last night but Reds boss Brendan Rodgers was content to come away from Arsenal with a 2-2 draw...
Following the shock of FA Cup elimination to League One side Oldham Athletic on Sunday, Brendan Rodgers and his players were probably grateful to have another match to instantly focus on.
The visitors certainly looked like a team with demons to bury as they raced into the lead after just five minutes through top-scorer Luis Suarez.
Visibly settled by the opening goal, the Merseysiders proceeded to dominate the opening half with some incisive passing and movement.
The second goal that Liverpool had been threatening eventually arrived on the hour mark as Jordan Henderson was rewarded for his persistence and all-round display.
However, the two-goal advantage was quickly wiped out within the next seven minutes as Arsenal finally clicked into gear.
Goals from Olivier Giroud and Theo Walcott were then followed by a period of sustained pressure by the hosts, leaving Liverpool slightly relieved to hear the sound of the final whistle.
After the match Kop boss Rodgers analysed the contest at his post-match press conference, telling reporters: "My overriding emotion is of real pride.
"We played Arsenal earlier on in the season and we were disappointing. I always felt this game would be a benchmark of how we've been progressing.
"It's a game we should have won - we didn't but we showed great resilience and quality and had other chances to get other goals. I'm very proud of the team."
The 40-year-old former Swansea City manager subsequently revealed the reasons behind why he felt the three points slipped away.
"I think we probably didn't keep it at 2-0 for long enough. I was trying to get Jose Enrique on down the left because Luis had ran out of steam a little bit," continued Rodgers.
"He has a great capacity to work but that was his first time playing in that role. But Jose couldn't get his boots on and all that sort of stuff, and within five minutes it was two each.
"It's just something that can happen - Arsenal are a wonderful team. We're disappointed it went to 2-2 but we showed great resilience and actually could have even won it."
Liverpool and Arsenal remain 6th and 7th respectively in the Premier League table - still separated by three points.
The draw means Liverpool are still yet to taste victory over a top six side this season but Rodgers revealed he's not concerned by the statistic.
"I'm not overly worried - we should have beaten Manchester City earlier in the season, we arguably could have won tonight," he added with the reigning champions up next at the Etihad.
"Hopefully people can see, but more importantly I can see, the group getting better all the time.
"We can go to Manchester City and win, and if we end up with four points from these two games that will show we're really pushing in the right direction."

Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly said Saturday spoke about the events that led to his decision to hold practice outdoors on a windy day when student videographer Declan died after the lift he was in fell over.
"On Wednesday I made the decision that we could have a productive and safe practice outdoors," Kelly said after the Irish lost to Tulsa 28-27 to fall to 4-5. "Productive, because the conditions were such, though windy, not unlike practices I've had at other universities including Notre Dame ... the next thing that was important is that it was a safe session.
"There are systems in place to make certain and deal with issues of safety and clearly in this instance they failed. We're in the process of examining what are those systems in place and looking for those answers."
A moment of silence was observed and a prayer offered before Saturday's game for Sullivan. Both teams wore shamrock decals with the letters DS on them. Kelly put the his team's loss on the field Saturday in perspective.
"It was a very difficult loss but it certainly pales in comparison to the unimaginable sorrow we had this week," Kelly said. "As a father of three I can only imagine the sorrow that accompanies the loss of your son. It's been a very difficult time for me and everybody in our football family."
You can read the entire transcript of Kelly's comments courtesy of the South Bend Tribune.
Later Saturday, Declan's parents, Alison and Barry Sullivan, released a statement through Notre Dame saying they were grateful "for the consideration shown to us by the Notre Dame administration and everyone associated with the university."
"Declan loved Notre Dame. He felt privileged to have a role with the football program videotaping games and practices. The grief we feel is tempered by the knowledge that Dec was doing what he loved in the place he most wanted to be," his parents' statement said.
"Declan's life was cut short after just 20 years, but he leaves this world a better place for having been here. We hope that all that knew him join us in celebrating our son's life and remembering the joy he brought to so many."

As noted in my last column, major changes are coming to attorney discipline. The new statewide rules governing attorney disciplinary procedures, which were originally scheduled to take effect on July 1, 2016 (the new “uniform rules’), are now set for implementation as of Oct. 1, 2016. The previous column focused on formal proceedings, or, as the uniform rules describe, “Proceedings in the Appellate Division.” In this column, I will address informal discipline, or as the uniform rules put it, “Proceedings Before Committees.” But first, a very brief overview.
Informal discipline is simply another way of saying that a committee has determined, after investigation, to impose a private, confidential sanction upon a lawyer who violated, or came close to violating, a Rule of Professional Conduct (RPC), but the infraction was not so serious as to warrant charges, a formal proceeding, and potential public discipline. Committees generally impose informal discipline by forwarding a “letter” to the attorney.
Under the former Departmental rules, informal discipline took a number of forms—Letters of Admonition, Letters of Caution, Letters of Education, and Letters of Dismissal with Guidance—depending on which department was administering the sanction.1 The process by which a committee imposed informal discipline, as well as appellate remedies and how an informal disciplinary sanction might be utilized in a subsequent disciplinary proceeding, also varied by department. A major accomplishment of the uniform rules has been to achieve statewide simplification and uniformity concerning informal discipline, which now takes only two forms: Admonitions and Letters of Advisement.
Now, following completion of an investigation of the complaint, with such appearances as the committee may direct, the committee may take one of the following actions: (i) dismiss the complaint for any reason by letter to the complainant and to the respondent; (ii) when it appears that the complaint involves a fee dispute, a matter suitable for mediation, or a matter suitable for review by a bar association grievance committee, refer the complaint to a suitable alternative forum upon notice to the respondent and the complainant; (iii) make an application for diversion pursuant to section 1240.11 of the rules; (iv) issue an Admonition or Letter of Advisement; or, (v) authorize a formal disciplinary proceeding. 22 NYCRR §1240.7(d)(2)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), and (vi).
An Admonition is discipline issued at the direction of the committee or the court pursuant to the uniform rules, where the respondent has engaged in professional misconduct that does not warrant public discipline by the court. An Admonition constitutes private discipline. It must be in writing, may be delivered to a recipient by personal appearance before the committee or its chairperson, and may be considered by a committee or the court in determining the action to be taken or the discipline to be imposed upon a subsequent finding of misconduct. 22 NYCRR §1240.2(a); 22 NYCRR §1240.7(d)(2)(v).
When the committee finds, by a fair preponderance of the evidence, that the respondent has engaged in professional misconduct, but that public discipline is not required to protect the public, maintain the integrity and honor of the profession, or deter the commission of similar misconduct, the committee may transmit a written Admonition to the respondent, which clearly states the facts forming the evidentiary basis for such finding, and the specific rule or other announced standard that the respondent violated. Prior to the imposition of an Admonition, the committee gives the respondent 20 days’ notice by mail of the committee’s proposed action and, at the respondent’s request, provides the respondent an opportunity to appear personally before the committee, or a subcommittee thereof, to seek reconsideration of the proposed Admonition. 22 NYCRR §1240.7(d)(2)(v).
The uniform rules mandate that, as may be permitted by law, the committee must provide the complainant with a brief description of the basis of any disposition of a complaint. When the committee issues an admonition, the respondent may, within 30 days after its issuance, make an application to the court, on notice to the committee, to vacate the Admonition. Upon such application and the committee’s response, if any, the court may consider the entire record and take whatever action it deems appropriate. 22 NYCRR §1240.7(d)(3) and (e)(2).
This is a radical change. Only in the Third Department, prior to this rule change, was it possible for an aggrieved respondent to seek judicial (as opposed to committee) review of an admonition. 22 NYCRR §806.4(c)(4).
Letter of Advisement
A Letter of Advisement is administered by the committee, without a hearing, when the committee finds that the respondent has engaged in conduct requiring comment that, under the facts of the case, does not warrant imposition of discipline. Upon receipt or initiation of a complaint of professional misconduct, the committee, after investigation but without a hearing, may conclude the matter by issuing a Letter of Advisement. A Letter of Advisement is confidential and does not constitute discipline, but may be considered by a committee or the court in determining the action to be taken or the discipline to be imposed upon a subsequent finding of misconduct. 22 NYCRR §1240.2(i); 22 NYCRR §1240.7(d)(2)(iv).
The respondent may file a written request for reconsideration with the chair of the committee, with a copy to the Chief Attorney, within 30 days after the committee issues a Letter of Advisement. The rules do not permit oral argument of the request. The chair has the discretion to deny reconsideration, or refer the request to the full committee, or a subcommittee thereof, for whatever action it deems appropriate. Within 30 days of the committee’s final determination denying the request for reconsideration, the respondent may seek review of the Letter of Advisement by submitting an application to the court, on notice to the committee, upon a showing that the committee issued the letter in violation of a fundamental constitutional right. The respondent has the burden of establishing the violation of such a right. Again, this is a major departure, injecting the court into what heretofore has been an exclusively committee-level process. 22 NYCRR §1240.7(d)(1)(ii) and (e)(1)(i).
The new uniform rules concerning informal discipline greatly simplify, and standardize throughout the state, the categories of, and procedures attendant to imposition of, private discipline. While uniformity is laudable, at the same time there should be concern that built into the new process is the potential for substantial delays, and increased litigation, as a consequence of the provision allowing respondent attorneys to seek judicial review of Admonitions and Letters of Advisement from the Appellate Divisions. Of course, it remains to be seen how frequently the disciplinary defense bar will seek such review, given the inherent risk of a more severe consequence for the lawyer once the court reviews the record and “takes whatever action it deems appropriate.”

1. Prior to the promulgation of the uniform rules, the First and Second Departments also issued Reprimands, which were “private” but did not constitute “informal discipline” because committees imposed Reprimands only after a hearing where the committee found misconduct in violation of an RPC. The committees no longer administer Reprimands under the uniform rules.

Valagro, a leading company in the production and marketing of biostimulants and specialty nutrients, returns once again to Fruit Logistica in Berlin, the leading international trade fair for fruits and vegetables.
In addition to the Valagro team, some of the group's best international customers will be attending the 2017 edition, as guests of the three-day event, to discuss the value of the solutions for crop nutrition and health developed through Valagro's innovation and research.
Thanks to the know-how acquired over the past 30 years, sustainability is the hallmark of Valagro solutions which consist of biostimulants and specialty nutrients. These innovative solutions combine environmental sustainability and productivity as they help farmers to achieve better crop yield and quality by improving the efficiency of crops.
#YourExperienceOurValue is the title of the series of meetings that will be hosted from 8 to 10 February at the Group's booth (booth A01 - Hall 10.1), and it will feature four Valagro distributors: Salvi Vivai (Italy), Agricola Famosa (Brazil), Shipley Sales (Mexico) and Cooper Vineyards (USA).
They will tell of the positive results achieved in terms of the quantity and quality of melon production, wine grapes, strawberries and many other fruit crops by using Valagro solutions, including biostimulants and specialty nutrientsproduced through the group's on-going commitment to research and development.
#YourExperienceOurValue stems from the distinctive Valagro approach based on the centrality of the customer. This is the same approach that underpins Valagro Academy, the innovative training programme for the group's sales teams and customers, to create and share high-quality knowledge about the world of Valagro solutions for crop nutrition and biostimulants, which was officially presented at Fruit Logistica 2016.
Benoit Genot, Global Marketing Director of Valagro: "The added value of our solutions lies in our innovative and scientific approach, ensuring our customers optimal nutrition to get higher yields and better crop quality, using fewer precious resources and technical means. The initiative we are presenting together with our distributors here at Fruit Logistica 2017 meets the objective of emphasising that it is important to Valagro to provide increasingly customised solutions to respond in to the different needs of our customers a truly effective manner, as they are always at the centre of our work. Only in this way we can assure our customers a greater return on investment, and as a result growth and development in their markets of reference. Only in this way we can create and share value, as taught to us by the experience of our customers".

Contour, a Singapore blockchain-based trade finance platform, has announced that Standard Bank South Africa has joined the Contour beta network. Standard Bank South Africa is the first bank in Africa to join the Contour beta network.
Contour is built on R3’s Corda platform, and is led by CEO, Carl Wegner, who was the previous managing director at R3. Contour uses the R3 Corda enterprise blockchain for its digital Letter of Credit network.
We’re proud to announce that Standard Bank has joined our #network. As our list of partners grow, we’re able to bring the benefits of #TradeDigitisation to even more banks and corporates.
Read the full story here: https://t.co/EYYoFNulQG pic.twitter.com/fdr18FPirp
— Contour (@contourtrade) September 22, 2020
Traditional Letters of Credit are too reliant on paperwork, and require a significant amount of documentation. Contour argues that the world is adapting to social distancing and remote working in a post-lockdown world, and claims that the use of paper-based processes will become increasingly problematic for economies.
Contour claim that by using the Contour network, Standard Bank will benefit from improved processing times by up to 90%.
Standard Bank is set to benefit from direct connectivity with other blockchain and traditional partner networks. Contour’s other partners include Tradecloud, Chinsay, Bolero and CryptoBLK.
Kevin Holmes, Head of Trade Product Management at Standard Bank said:
“Joining Contour has allowed us to expand our offering in collaboration with International Financial Institutions to corporates across the region harnessing Contour’s technology to provide our clients with an enhanced user experience. Being part of the beta opens up our connections with Contour’s other participants, giving us greater access to the opportunities to manage our trade finance business.”

From May 6 until August 31, 2016 takes place the collective exhibition with catalog Different Expressions, at the Art Gallery Le Tracce in via San Bernardo 21 in the center of Genoa, Italy. I Participate with the artist Paolo Amoretti, as Mr & Mrs Bradi, with works made together individually. Opening May 6 h.18.30.
Are currently in exhibition and sale the works by Ilaria Berenice and Paolo Amoretti at Giordano Interior Design in Novi Ligure, Italy, corso Marenco 71/D.
Phone +39 347 250 4477
For yourself or to give as a gift, with mixed media or a specific technique at your choice. Send me your questions and preferences of size and technique to get a quote. Then your favorite photos of the subject, and as soon as the portrait is finished it will be shipped to you.
My works represent my artistic and inner evolution. My research is in constant experimentation and is not attached to a particular subject, technique or material. My creativity is in a continuous expansion, which occurs both outward and inward, to the expressive research that is manifested in a work corresponds to an inner search that leads to greater knowledge of me. But most of all the initial input is always the inspiration, my only boss.
I happened to be at home on Friday when your package arrived, I ripped it open, impatient to find my treasure. Thank you. What an artist you are!! With just a few brush strokes you capture the main features of a face. The more I look at it, the more there seems to be a glow emanating from it - I guess that's the master in me you see. And the picture ready to be hung on the wall!! I found the perfect place for it right away. It is in my office, by my computer. So I see it every day, I look at it to dive into the depths of my mastery and even when absentmindedly noticing, it is present all the time.
... I always wanted to go into the pictures that I particularly like ... and the other night, I did it ... Suddenly I was on that train, with a plastic cup in my hand, half-empty bourbon. .. coming out of the compartment, I see that girl cute, watching the scenery rushing too fast, to be able to stop on a tree, or a house ... The strange thing is that her reflection in the glass, was a male. ... She was terrified to look, but still peeks with one eye, wondering what was going on ...
Initially, I blamed the bourbon, I thought I had seeing things .... while the controller came in and went to the car, not caring at all about the strangeness, briskly, as if, with his walk, could help the train arrive before .....
I am sorry that the girl was so busy watching his reflection.... She didn't the least notice me ...... So I decided to get off the train and the picture, and I found myself back in the gallery , obviously not railway gallery ... Framework of Ilaria Berenice Shamiah, my inclusion in the scene,
"Why do I feel the need, yes the need to paint faces? Because I am ... how can you say? ... Almost hallucinated by faces, and this since always ... As an unknown sign, as if there was something to see that you don't see at first glance. Why?
This face that you seek, that is behind each individual face, isn'it so general as to be abstract?
Ah, no! Absolutely the opposite. The more we are ourselves, the more we become anyone ... But we can't become the other if it is not maximally ourselves, don't you think? It gets to the general, if I may say so, only through the most."
Ilaria Berenice Shamiah plays perfectly the ideal that Giacometti repeated in almost all of his interviews. Ilaria Berenice Shamiah and her graphic pictorial runs a deep understanding of all human ravines, those that are consumed in the dark passions in unsolved riddles. A going back in that time undated, where opposites coexist. As she says we are mirrors..
Your works are good for the soul! You can see people in the soul. Amid a sea of colored emotions I chose a painting, I took away with me what in that meeting was the perfect choice, it is as to be close to that sweet mystery that you always puts in your works. Your works also convey a message of depth similar to the works of Modigliani. You're amazing! You are great and transmit energy.
My original portrait just arrived and it is SO amazing! I thought that the photo was incredible but the original is just magic. Thank you so much!
I put your painting above the sofa in the living room and looks great. It gives the viewer a cosmic sense, the viewer is shown in a spatial-temporal dimension that has a strong archetypal cosmogony call. You can release yourself from the symbol shown and transmute into abstraction that becomes an objective correlative of the deepest natural recall, intimately recognizable by all. Some of your abstract works recall events of the super nove or similar, you can convey the feeling of this creative power, not communicating the materialistic descriptive scientific side, but you can grasp its essence, keeping intact the symbol, even if detached from symbolic representation, and taken in an exciting and emotional form.

This is a fun way to review or practice adding fractions with denominators of 10 and 100. This can be used as a card stack or a scoot to get kids up and moving!
There are 32 task cards that involve mixed review of tenths and hundredths. 16 of the task cards are written as fraction numerals with the task being to solve. The other 16 task cards are pictures with the task being to write an equation and solve. This includes an answer sheet and a recording sheet for each student. Take a look at the preview to see the two different types of questions.
They are aligned to common core, 4.NF.C.5.

Face it. Getting older stinks! Your hair gets gray, you start getting wrinkles, and your skin starts getting thin and loses its elasticity. Yup, even down THERE the walls of the vagina get thin. It’s called “vaginal atrophy” and due to lower levels of estrogen, it can affect approximately 50% of postmenopausal women. Some of the unpleasant symptoms of vaginal atrophy include, vaginal dryness, itching, irritation, and/or pain during sex, also called “dyspareunia”.1
So what can be done to help make sex more enjoyable and less painful?
- Don’t be silent! Talk to your doctor, get a pelvic exam, and make sure it’s not anything more serious. And don’t forget to talk about ALL of your symptoms. Fewer than one-half of women with vaginal atrophy discuss painful sex with their doctor. Why? They think nothing can be done about it or that it’s just something that happens as we age.2
- Use water-soluble lubricants such as Astroglide® or K-Y® Jelly. Do not use Vaseline®, which is NOT water soluble. It can weaken latex condoms and they could break. Not so much a big deal for postmenopausal women who are over their childbearing years, but condoms are still good protection against sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), even for the older generation!3 According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, STD rates have nearly tripled over the past ten years among 45- to 65-year olds.4
- Communicate with your partner. Tell him or her what is comfortable and what isn’t. Consider different positions. Use other activities, such as sensual massage or oral sex. Even fantasy can be fun, too, and can include music, videos, or television. Remember, sex should be fun!3
- Low-dose vaginal estrogen therapy. This type of product provides relief right where it is needed and minimizes possible estrogen side effects on the rest of the body. It comes in various forms, such as vaginal creams, rings, or tablets, and these products are very effective for atrophy-related pain during sex, with up to 93% of women reporting significant improvement, and 57% to 75% reporting reporting their sexual comfort is restored.5
- Selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM). In 2013, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved ospemifene (Osphena®), a SERM for the treatment of postmenopausal dyspareunia which increases vaginal epithelial cells and decreases vaginal pH.2
So speak up and get treated! You’ll be glad you did, and so will your partner!

A litter of 11 young puppies has been found soaking wet and cold on a pathway after being dumped in Porirua.
The four-week-old pups was found at 2am today, crawling along a patch of grass along a pathway connecting Champion St and Somerset Pl in Cannons Creek, Porirua, the SPCA said.
A member of the public came across them, after hearing their cries.
They took them in for the night, and contacted the SPCA this morning.
Temperatures at night were dropping to as low as 4-5C, Wellington SPCA animal welfare inspector Gina Kemp, said.
"It is extremely fortunate that the puppies were found when they were. Had they remained undiscovered, cold, wet and hungry until morning then the outcome could have been very different", she said.
The puppies were brought into Wellington SPCA's Newtown Centre, where they were assessed by the veterinary team, treated, and fed and kept warm.
The pups were in surprisingly good health despite their ordeal, Ms Kemp said, but will be very confused and missing their mum.
"It is not only heart-breaking to see these puppies deserted, I am also concerned for the mother of these puppies, who will no doubt be missing her large family. A litter that large would have certainly taken a toll on her, and so I urge anyone with any information to come forward so we can help get her and her puppies the help they need."
Wellington SPCA has been working with the local community to reduce rates of unwanted animals through desexing campaigns .
"Sadly this is not an isolated case, and despite our best efforts we still see lots of puppies and kittens being born to homes that do not, or cannot care for them. This is avoidable and we need owners to take responsibility and understand the importance of desexing their pets", said Ms Kemp.
The puppies are now in the care of Wellington SPCA, which has called for anyone with information on their abandonment to contact them on 0800 INSPECTOR.

The Effect of Insecticde Concentration on the Health and Survival Rate of Earthworms
2013 Fairfax County Regional Science and Engineering Fair
The abstract below was written by the student. The Northern Virginia Soil and Water Conservation District made no editorial changes.
The Effect of Insecticide Concentration on the Health and Survival Rate of Earthworms
By: Katherine R. Walton and Stephanie C. Halsted, South County High School
Supposedly, pesticides do not affect human health, or the health of organisms other than insects. By manipulating the concentration of Consero (an insecticide) an earthworm population is exposed to, then closely monitoring their health and survival, this experiment was designed to test the hypothesis that greater insecticide concentration will lead to a decreased survival and health rate in earthworms. Prior to our actual experiment, we conducted a pre-experiment to demonstrate what concentration of about 2% caused most of our population to die in only three days, while 0% concentration resulted in a little to no earthworm death. In our pre-experiment, we also measured that if earthworms received a solution that is only about 1% Consero (the recommended amount), significantly less than half of the population died within three days. After completing this, we extended our observations time to two weeks and only tested solutions with concentrations between one and two percent. This time, we used smaller intervals so we could study the effect of different concentrations more closely. In our observations, we saw that the lower concentrations of pesticide was to zero, the less drastic the difference in survival rates. As the concentration was increased, smaller intervals increased the death rate drastically. Our hypothesis was supported by the decreased survival rate when worms are exposed to higher concentrations, but raised questions about the uneven correlation between the two variables.

I still don't understand what you are trying to say...
The independent HP mode is created only for certain codecs like AD and
VT codecs, so far.
Moreover, how would "independent" HP work with a single DAC at all?
The independent HP means that the individual PCM stream can be played
through the headphone. It doesn't make any sense for the hardware
with a single DAC.
> Also those alc66x datasheet does not mention the support of multi-streaming
There has been no change wrt Realtek codec.
We're talking about regression.
> Don't create the control when there is internal speaker
More context please.

> Asus g75) and it is confusing when there is no headphone playback volume
It's rather a fix. The headphone volume was wrongly picked up
although it's identical with the speaker volume.
> Don't create the control when there is no headphone Jack when the user is
> retasked the headphone Jack to Mic by early patching
When user says it's a mic jack, how can you know it's a headphone?
> Automatically disable for those headphone mic jack when the HP Jack is
> retasked as mic
The old behavior was rather buggy, and this is actually a fix.
Think of the other scenarios: if we inactivate the control element,
you may get again the crash of application as you've seen with the old
AD codec parser. OTOH, if we change the value of automute mode enum,
how should we do once when the independent HP is turned off again?
You can't know whether user want to keep the value off or not.

The common black house spider: a case of mistaken identity
Bec Crew is a Sydney-based science communicator with a love for weird and wonderful animals. From strange behaviours and special adaptations to newly discovered species and the researchers who find them, her topics celebrate how alien yet relatable so many of the creatures that live amongst us can be.
As a bonafide arachnophobe, I wouldn’t want to be trapped in a room with one of these. But it sure as heck beats being stuck in a room with a funnel web spider.
The common black (or brown) house spider (Badumna insignis) is often misidentified as a funnel web spider, because to the untrained eye, they do look kind of similar.
The females are compact, dark-coloured, and have a big ol’ abdomen, but that’s where the similarities end. Which is great, because as their name suggests, common black house spiders pop up a lot in Australian homes, especially in the southern and eastern parts of the country.
They’re often found in nooks and crannies, especially around window frames, doorways and porch lights – anywhere with a good amount of light that attracts their insect prey. They’re also found on tree trunks and logs around loose bark and in rock wall crevices.
Like funnel-web spiders, black house spiders build elaborate, lacy webs with funnel-shaped entrances. But, rather ironically, the webs of black house spiders are often more funnel-like than those of funnel-web spiders. Funnel-web spiders are also more likely to build burrows in the ground.
Common black house spiders might look intimidating, but they’re actually very shy, and will rarely venture out of their nests. The females will build and repair their nests over and over again, rather than abandoning them and building fresh ones. As a result, their webs often look quite ratty and old, like this one:
They’re also not aggressive, and even though their bites are venomous and can be temporarily excruciating, they’re nowhere near as dangerous as a bite from a funnel-web spider.
Some key differences in appearance between the two is the black house spider is quite hairy, whereas the funnel-web spider has an eerie glossiness, and their fangs are quite distinct.
According to spider expert Dr Helen Smith from the Australian Museum, black house spiders have more delicate fangs that pinch sideways, while funnel-web spiders have stronger “stabbing fangs”.
The rule of thumb, Dr Smith told the ABC, is “If it is glossy, with powerful fang bases, beware.”
Another good clue is if you don’t have a backyard or a decent amount of vegetation or ground that can be burrowed into, chances are what you’re seeing is a black house spider.
You’re also not going to struggle to tell funnel-web spiders apart from male common black house spiders; the males’ legs are much more elongated than the females’, which gives them a very different look altogether:
The best approach is to leave these spiders alone regardless, because they’re quite happy to do the same.
If you do think what you’re dealing with is a funnel-web, here are some handy tips for how to safely collect it and donate it to a venom-milking program for antivenom development.

Fortnite: NickEh30 Delivers “One in a Million” Bow & Arrow Elimination
NickEh30 delivers an insane Fortnite elimination during Bownanza Week.
It’s no secret that Fortnite public match content is not what it once was in the early days. Personalities such as Tyler “Ninja” Blevins, Ali “SypherPK” Hassan and many other “OGs” set the bar for entertainment in 2017 and 2018. While the occasional Fortnite moment catches the public eye, viral clips are a rare commodity.
Enter family-friendly Twitch streamer Nick “NickEh30” Amyoony—a person who seldom misses a day of Fortnite. The Canadian content creator streams the game regularly to thousands of viewers looking for new ways to entertain. However, nothing could have prepared NickEh30 or his audience for what unfolded early Monday morning.
NickEh30 Touches the Sky & Earns a Victory Royale
I just shot an arrow up in the sky and it actually eliminated someone!! pic.twitter.com/iuKPlH9rc5
— Nick Eh 30 (@NickEh30) February 28, 2022
The 26-year-old content creator did the unthinkable alongside fellow streamer Franco “FaZe Replays” Sicilia in a public Fortnite match. After running through a lobby filled with players, NickEh30 and Replays prepared for a once-in-a-lifetime finish. The two streamers isolated the last opponent, hoping to wow the viewers. What unfolded is challenging to put into words.
In the video above, NickEh30 walks viewers through what occurred. After depleting the player’s materials and resources, Nick shot several arrows into the sky until one ultimately found its target. The Victory Royale screen appeared, and no one, including Nick, could comprehend what happened. It was the perfect setup to deliver a satisfying result.
Twitter Reacts to the Clip
This gives me cross map throwing knife vibes in CoD. That was sick!
— Avery (@Avxry) February 28, 2022
NickEh30’s impressive arrow elimination has generated more than 100K views on Twitter alone. Most commenters could not believe what NickEh30 and Replays produced. TypicalGamer responded to the clip, saying, “no freaking way.”
Fellow Twitch streamer Avxry compared Nick’s arrow elimination to a throwing knife in the Call of Duty series. Most would agree that this is one of the craziest clips we’ve seen in a while. NickEh30 can safely mark “one in a million arrow elimination” off his Fortnite bucket list. We can assume more unique clips are coming soon with the season winding down and another on the horizon.
Stay tuned to ESTNN for more Fortnite news and updates!

It’s a good day. A cool, fall, good day. A day for random thought blogging.
* I just made an appointment for a cut and color for tomorrow night – I’m pretty darn excited…haven’t had my hair done since about my second trimester of pregnancy. I’ve decided to go dark….really dark! Unless the stylist talks me out of it. 🙂
* Tomorrow, Boone will be three months old! And, I have JUST begun fill out his baby book….his adorable baby book that I got off of Etsy. Check out these cute books HERE
* We’re moving. Possibly. We found two houses that we would love to put an offer on (one of them), but we have to first get a renter in our current home. So, if you or someone you know is looking to rent a cute 3 bedroom 2 1/2 bathroom townhome located in east Charlotte in between Chantilly and Cotswold (less than a 10 minute drive from uptown), shoot me an email – Cheyenne.Schultz @ gmail.com (no spaces). 🙂
* Thanksgiving. This Thanksgiving we plan to take it easy….really easy. No set plans really….perhaps a little tree trimming, Charlie Brown Christmas watching, red and green M&M cookie and See’s Candy eating, hot tea drinking, Eclipse
reading, cinnamon candle burning, baby/husband snuggling. I thought about making a turkey, but I don’t know if that will actually happen. Does anyone know if Trader Joe’s sells free range turkeys?
And now, in the length of time it’s taken me to write this blog post, I no longer have a sleeping baby. Oh well, at least he woke up happy and at least he is pretty much the cutest little guy I’ve ever seen. 🙂 Maybe I’ll haul the stroller out of the trunk of the car and I’ll take Boone on an afternoon walk. We’ll see.
For now, I’ll leave you with this….one from the latest wedding we shot at The Dairy Barn

The Catholic Education Foundation announces two new fundraising programs which benefit you while you are supporting the Foundation.
Memorial cards honor deceased people who held dear the principles of Catholic education. Funds raised from memorial card sales will be placed in the CEF endowment account. This is a wonderful alternative to traditional flowers.
The Foundation also offers Gift cards, which can be used to honor someone on a special occasion such as a retirement or anniversary. They would also make appropriate gifts for Catholic school teachers, volunteers, or other supporters of Catholic education. This is a thoughtful way to honor a friend or family member while also giving back to the Catholic Education Foundation.
Both cards are available from the CEF office by calling (815) 221-6127.

City of Thibodaux 1309 Canal Blvd. Thibodaux, LA 70301 Phone: (985) 446-5021 Fax: (985) 446-7214
On Tuesday August 2, 2005, at approximately 12 noon, a manager of a local business (located in the 300 block of Canal Boulevard) contacted the Thibodaux Police Department and advised that she had received a telephone call from a concerned citizen who reported that she had just witnessed two possible shoplifters leave her place of business and head south on Canal Boulevard. The concerned citizen described the suspicious actions witnessed between the two suspects along with a brief physical and clothing description. The manager immediately contacted the Thibodaux Police Department.
With the above descriptive information reported by the concerned citizen, the Thibodaux Police apprehended the two suspects within a short time. The two suspects were identified as Clifford Southall (B/M; DOB 11/7/56 of 1291 Bourbon Street in Thibodaux) and Tammy Turner (B/F; DOB 1/29/71 of 1212 President Street in Thibodaux). When apprehended by police, Clifford Southall was in possession of a large purse that contained over $74.00 worth of items from the local business without a receipt to show proof of purchase.
Both Tammy Turner and Clifford Southall were transported to the Thibodaux Police Department where they were each booked and charged with (1ct) “Illegal Possession of Stolen Things” During booking, it was learned that Tammy Turner also had an outstanding warrant for “Failure to Appear for Arraignment”. Clifford was issued a Misdemeanor Summons and released while Tammy Turner was later transported to the Lafourche Parish Detention Center with a bond in the amount of $1100.00.
“Illegal Possession of Stolen Things” = is the intentional possessing, procuring, receiving, or concealing of anything of value which has been the subject of any robbery or theft. When the value of the stolen things is less than three-hundred dollars, the offender shall be imprisoned for not more than six months, or may be fined not more than five-hundred dollars or both.
Police Chief Craig A. Melancon commented, “Thanks to you, the concern citizens of the City of Thibodaux. Together with the Thibodaux Police Department, we will continue to fight crime.”

“Practice kindness all day to everybody and you will realize you’re already in heaven now.”
In the mid-1950s, literary iconoclast and beat icon Jack Kerouac (March 12, 1922–October 21, 1969) became intensely interested in Buddhism, which began permeating his writing. It was the golden age of Eastern ideas drawing Western minds, from legendary composer John Cage to pioneering philosopher Alan Watts, credited with popularizing Zen thinking in mainstream Western society. Watts, in fact, at one point criticized Kerouac’s writing as being “always a shade too self-conscious, too subjective, and too strident to have the flavor of Zen.” But when stripped of his literary self-consciousness, as he was in his private letters, Kerouac had a special way of articulating the most beautiful and eternal concepts of Zen Buddhism with equal parts expansive awareness and crystalline precision.
Kerouac sent one such letter to his first wife, Edie Kerouac Parker, in late January of 1957, a decade after their marriage had been annulled. Found in The Portable Jack Kerouac (public library) — an altogether terrific treasure trove of his stories, poems, letters, and essays on Buddhism — the missive is nothing short of exquisite.
I have lots of things to teach you now, in case we ever meet, concerning the message that was transmitted to me under a pine tree in North Carolina on a cold winter moonlit night. It said that Nothing Ever Happened, so don’t worry. It’s all like a dream. Everything is ecstasy, inside. We just don’t know it because of our thinking-minds. But in our true blissful essence of mind is known that everything is alright forever and forever and forever. Close your eyes, let your hands and nerve-ends drop, stop breathing for 3 seconds, listen to the silence inside the illusion of the world, and you will remember the lesson you forgot, which was taught in immense milky way soft cloud innumerable worlds long ago and not even at all. It is all one vast awakened thing. I call it the golden eternity. It is perfect.
We were never really born, we will never really die. It has nothing to do with the imaginary idea of a personal self, other selves, many selves everywhere: Self is only an idea, a mortal idea. That which passes into everything is one thing. It’s a dream already ended. There’s nothing to be afraid of and nothing to be glad about. I know this from staring at mountains months on end. They never show any expression, they are like empty space. Do you think the emptiness of space will ever crumble away? Mountains will crumble, but the emptiness of space, which is the one universal essence of mind, the vast awakenerhood, empty and awake, will never crumble away because it was never born.
He ends the letter with one of his free-flowing, uninhibited poems:
The world you see is just a movie in your mind.
Rocks dont see it.
Bless and sit down.
Forgive and forget.
Practice kindness all day to everybody
and you will realize you’re already
in heaven now.
That’s the story.
That’s the message.
Nobody understands it,
nobody listens, they’re
all running around like chickens with heads cut
off. I will try to teach it but it will
be in vain, s’why I’ll
end up in a shack
praying and being
cool and singing
by my woodstove
More than half a century after Kerouac penned that beautiful letter, director Sergi Castella and filmmaker Hector Ferreño transformed the writer’s words into a magnificent cinematic adaptation for Dosnoventa Bikes, with a haunting, Johnny-Cashlike voiceover by James Phillips and beautifully curated music by Pink Floyd and Cash himself. As an intense lover of both bikes and literature, it makes my heart sing in multiple octaves.
The Portable Jack Kerouac offers a richer glimpse into one of modern history’s most extraordinary minds. Complement it with Kerouac’s beat tour of NYC’s nightlife and his 30 beliefs and techniques for prose and life.

Rare images of Beyonce's daughter Blue Ivy Carter have emerged courtesy of the singer's new documentary, Life is a Dream. Previous stills of Blue Ivy have avoided fully showing the youngster's face, but during an interview with Oprah Winfrey, clear pictures of the adorable one-year-old were seen for the first time, showing her strong likeness to dad Jay-Z.
All the Single Ladies singer Beyonce's new documentary reflects on her personal and professional life, from 2011 to 2012 - the year she gave birth to her daughter. Wanting the show to be as honest as possible, Beyonce chose to share special moments her audience that have never been documented before. Featuring family celebrations, ultrasound scans, music recordings and home videos, the programme shows Beyonce during tough times as well as triumphs.The documentary, which will be shown on US channel HBO, covers the Destiny's Child star's life before she became a mother, throughout her pregnancy, the birth and her baby's first year.
During her interview with Oprah, Beyonce confessed to being very nervous but extremely happy and proud of the project, adding that she hopes it inspires her daughter and her millions of fans. The Texas-born star also opened up about her relationship with Jay-Z, which has been going strong for more than 10 years. "I would not be the woman I am if I did not go home to that man" she said to the chatshow host. "He just gives me such a foundation and [he's helped me] on so many levels."
She added of Blue Ivy "When I get up in the morning, the best in the world is to see [her] face. [She is] Already starting to talk, every day is different and every day she learns something new," She continued: "I definitely want another child. After this next tour, maybe I'll have another baby."For now, however, Beyonce is happy with Jay-Z and Blue Ivy, not to mention her phenomenal career."I love singing," the 31-year-old simply stated, "I love my job."

I have one too which looks like a bald spot (I have extremely white skin, especially my scalp, and darker hair. contrast is not my friend up there.)
what I did - I started the part of my hair directly on the cowlick, dragging it straight to the hairline. this way the cowlick simply looks like the end of a part, and not a random bald spot. the part in my case is way more to the side than I've ever worn, but whatever works. I was very frustrated and depressed over this cowlick, because I have thin, fine hair with not much volume and I really don't need anyone to think I am going bald.

The Bengals are signing Hawaii safety Trayvon Henderson who the team expressed interest in back at his pro day. The 6’, 200 pound defensive back was ball hawk for the Rainbow Warriors.
He was expected to be a Round 5-6 pick, so this is a nice grab for the Bengals who can use some defensive back depth for the offseason. Henderson is known as a decent athlete who is aggressive and is a striker. But, he’s a bit undersized, lacks speed over the top and didn’t play against the stiffest competition.
In five seasons spent at Hawaii, including an injured 2015 campaign in which he only played two games, Henderson racked up 237 tackles, 5.0 sacks, 9 interceptions, 13 passes defensed, 2 fumble recoveries and 1 forced fumble.

I asked for Rohan’s assistance and he lent me his carriage to guide me back to the cave, thanking me for my troubles. Arriving shortly after, it was once again time to meet the Supreme Sage
“Gaspard, Stop right there! It isn’t a good time to come in!”
A red light filled the cave.
“Gnoss, what’s going on?”
“I had warned you not to interfere with this Mortal World, Gnoss. I banish you to the void for all eternity!” with this
A ringing sound reverberated throughout the cave and a bright light flashed
The altar upon which he had been sealed disappeared entirely.
“Hello…Gnoss are you there?”
I called out in the cave but there wasn’t any response.
“Gnoss, I need you!”
“Damn, just when you need them most…”
“Did you call me?”
Suddenly the gem he was trapped in reappeared through a dimensional rift.
“Wow, I thought you were a goner there.”
“Yes, I also thought I would be trapped in the void, luckily the promise of the ring is absolute.”
The ring of obedience give off a small light.
“So what just happened to you?”
“Don’t worry about it, not a big deal. So have you read the Codex?”
“Not a big deal you say… who was that the being who banished you?”
“It has nothing to do with you. Well, now that you’ve read the Codex, there is just one last step before becoming a Chosen Warrior.
There was no reason to press the issue, like he said it wasn’t any of my business.
“What is it?”
“You need to get my permission as the prophet to the Divine will.”
“Ok, let’s quickly get it over with.”
Something was off, why was he hesitating?
“I met some unfortunate circumstances in the Higher plane, and lost most of my Divine Grace”
“What did you say!”
I spat out both irritated and angry. It was the feeling of having come so far, only to fail at the very end.
“No, it isn’t a big deal and the ceremony can still proceed, just that you won’t be a complete Chosen Warrior. With the amount of Divine Grace I have left, you can only wield the strength of a Chosen once, before requiring to charge it for around one year’s time.
“Is there a way for you to regain your Grace?”
“No, my Grace doesn’t regenerate. I only acquired it when I inherited my position as Supreme Sage.”
Well there wasn’t much of a choice, At least I would be able to release my main body.
“Okay go through with it, but keep in mind that removing your seal will not be my priority.”
“I accept because this is my fault, just sometime in the future please remembers to remove my seal. ”
He spoke out dejectedly.
“Worry not, I always pay back those I am indebted to.”
“Okay, this will just take a sec.”
“Ali Pandamelini Mani Grad Ali Alonawatouwake and Nafunji Akazazuu Kungpun Disha Fishing Akinya and Chakenakusumani U Palme and Yinbingu Nehriwalioma Skinny and Loho and Waao Atonanashi“
I floated into the air, embraced by a bluish nimbus filled with energy, which slowly seeped into my body. After a short time, I dropped back down to the ground as I noticed the new Chosen Warrior title on my status page.
“Phew, that was a close one, I was worried for a second that it would fail because of the lack of Grace.”
“Good, now Gnoss, will you continue to stay here? Isn’t it dangerous?”
“Well… I’ve been fine so far, but that does seem to have changed.”
I picked up the green gem within which he was sealed.
“What are you doing?”
I have a lot of uses for you, so you’ll get comfy accommodations in my jewelry pouch.
“How dare you treat me like some common gem, I am the Supreme Sage!”
“Do you have telepathy? You must since as you just mentioned you are the Supreme Sage. Make sure to use it when we are around other people, can’t have a talking gem now can I?”
Ignoring the chatterbox, I left the cave and headed back to the Inn.
I met the women on the first floor, apparently they were worried that I had gone missing.
“I have to leave to take care of some personal business.”
“Can’t we go together?”
I shook my head, I really didn’t want them to come over to the Pit.
“Will you be coming back?”
“Of course, there are still many quests waiting for me.”
“Okay then… we’ll wait for you.”
Kishande stayed quiet after that, while Miranda and Ashe were in tears.
“I’ll be back as soon as I can, so in the meantime don’t do anything dangerous.”
I rushed out of town, galloping towards the Pit, trying to arrive as soon as possible.
‘Gnoss, I’ll share with you a bit about myself, so try not to be too surprised.’
‘Oh, do you mean the fact that you’re the King of the Pit, or that your main body is that of a Golden ArchLich?’
‘What, how’d you know?’
‘My Identification is at Max Level, I can even see all of your stats. Speaking of which, have you experienced a special event? You appear to have a unique ability that allows you to receive exponential experience for multiple kills. I’ve never heard of such a trait.’
Multiple kills, I had also been wondering why hunting several monsters at the same time would reward me more than others. Even if others would perform the same feat as me, their level didn’t rise as quickly.Was it a unique trait of mine?
‘You also have an extra Identity, have you killed a Reincarnator?’
I proceeded to tell him all my experiences since I’d arrived in this World. I needed his wisdom and could count on his discretion, after all he was sealed and resided in my pocket. He would be my new substitute for the Sage’s Wisdom and would resolve all that was unknown to me, so I chose to be upfront with him.
‘How should I refer to you, Chompy, Johra, Gaspard?’
‘It matters not, you can choose.’
‘How have you managed to survive so long? You seem quite innocent with that straightforward personality of yours. Was it because you began as a skeleton and had no emotions? You truly are an interesting case study, Kekeke.’
I probably wouldn’t have shared my life story with him had I known he had such a creepy laugh.
‘I see, so you were sealed when fighting that childish League of Reincarnators. ’
‘Hey, please tell me it wasn’t you who made Lorina a Chosen Warrior.’
‘Geez, a least make some selection process, how could you have given such power to a waste like her?’
‘Well.. I refused at first, but she later returned with a divine writ from a High God. If I continued to deny her I would probably end up losing my position as Supreme Sage. They may be a bunch of trouble makers but they at least fulfilled their oath and sealed Soleste, but when I tried to retrieve the Divine Grace bestowed on them….’
‘They sealed you instead?
I could somewhat understand what Gnoss had gone through. As a Supreme Sage, his role was to lead those he deemed worthy on the path of a Chosen Warrior. However, when he tried to take back that power, it was used against him instead.
‘Then was that red light a High God?’
‘No, it’s the Messiah,an errand boy so to speak. High gods never come down to this realm.
On our way back I continued to converse with Gnoss, absorbing as much knowledge as I could.
‘So the Elves have finally organized an expedition? You have some tough times ahead. You managed to cause those prideful Elves to put aside their differences as well as a thousand years of disagreements and bickering among tribes, to band together for a common cause. Of course, at the end of the day, their greed for the World’s nectar is the main reason.
‘Then do you know of some allies I could find to help beat them back?’
‘Of course I know I am the Supreme Sage. If you’re looking for allies, then you have to consider your enemy’s enemy. The first are the Dwarves, although rocks and trees may coexist peacefully in nature, It isn’t the case for those two races as they are always at eachother’s throats. I will tell you how to make an alliance with them. Then there’s the Totem Orcs, they are a rather peaceful species but will always avenge an enmity. Finally, you told me that you’ve reached an agreement with the Asmodians. That’s good, they are honorable beings, and would not easily go back on their word.’
It was a great use of my wish to have Gnoss accompany me, he was like a fountain of wisdom, providing me with all kinds of useful information. Maybe he was being more cooperative when he found out I hated Lorina.
“Ha~ Finally arrived.”
Standing on the precipice, I looked down at the beautiful scenery with a sense of pride.
‘Is this the Pit you spoke of? It looks bigger than you let on.’
Although Gnoss didn’t have any eyes he could see with, he could view the Status pages of all living creatures, allowing him to have a good grasp of his surroundings.
“Lord, I’ve been impatiently waiting for your return.”
Winged Antilliens came up to greet me, and with their help we arrived before my sealed body by the lake.
‘Gnoss, do I just need to pull the sword out or is there something special I should do?’
‘Once you grasp the hilt of the sword, try to visualize something Divine. Most of a Chosen’s powers originate from that mental image.’
I grabbed the sword, and focused on the image of a pure white angel.
I pulled the sword out, finally regaining my main body’s freedom.
“Ha ha ha! I’m finally free!”
‘Ugh, why so loud. You sound like a villain that’s just been released.’
I heard Gnoss’ grumblings but simply ignored them.
“We must celebrate the King’s release!”
The insects that were nearby were hopping around in ecstasy, while Ian Gwyn and Mallepi stood nearby.
Ignoring the festive mood, I spoke urgently to Ian with my telepathy.
‘Ian, I have important business to take care of. I’ll be back to meet with you, Gwyn and Mallepi later.’
After nodding back, I signaled Alpeon.
“Prepare 20 of our finest soldiers, I’ll be heading out shortly.”
“I’m on it!”
Ten minutes later, 10 Antilliens and HighArachnids assembled before me.
“Good, Arin you’ll lead them as their captain.”
“Thank you for the honor Lord!”
All of them had maxed out their levels and had a unique skill.
‘What’s the matter with my Avatar?’
My human body which I had left by the lakeshore was trembling uncontrollably, making strange sounds.
‘Why is it doing that Gnoss?’
‘When there is no soul inside the Avatar, a wandering soul is born. However, if there are other souls in your proximity then you’ll be fine.’
“Alpeon, please have some of your children accompany my Avatar.”
“Of course Lord”
As the Antilliens neared my human body, the seizures immediately stopped.
‘Hmm… was that the main reason why the women would accompany me every night?’
I had always assumed it was because they had been traumatized, but by the looks of it they might have had a more altruistic purpose.
“Arin, let’s get going.”
Leaving the Pit behind, we headed toward the Wetheros Mountains at a brisk pace. Carried by the Antilliens, I helped by reducing the effects of gravity, speeding us along. A journey that would have taken 5 days on horseback, was completed in just 2.
‘Gnoss, this is the Dwarves’ home right?’
‘Yes, just wait a short while and they will appear.’
Although the huge cave before me appeared to have been formed naturally, upon closer examination the rock seemed to have been melted.
‘Was it a dragon?’
“These are the lands of the King under the Mountain! None can enter!”
A unit of small, but sturdy dwarves appeared before us. It was the same dwarves that were renowned for masonry and blacksmithing skills, as they were dressed in gorgeous armor and wielded fierce weapons.
“I came seeking an audience with your King.”
“Return from whence you came, our King does not meet with outsiders.”
Tell him I came to fulfill the Supreme Sage’s promise regarding Valenor.”
“Vale… never heard of it. Now leave or would you rather have a taste of my hammer!”
The unit leader threateningly swung his hammer around a few times, seemingly with no intentions of passing on my message to his king.
‘Hand him what we’ve brought, dont fight!’
Gnoss shouted out to me urgently.
“Arin bring it here.”
She brought forth of a keg’s worth a the World’s nectar.
“We present you with a gift for the King under the Mountain, a token of friendship and goodwill.”
“What is it, beer? How could it possibly be more delicious than our dwarven ale?”
Propping open the barrel’s lid he had a taste of the nectar. The other dwarves approached him with curiosity as he was bathed in a golden light.
“Hey, you can’t possibly be thinking of drinking the whole barrel before presenting it to your king?”
“Aahh… You there! Present this barrel to the King and explain to him the situation here!”
Having tasted the nectar and accepted our gifts, the dwarves were considerable less hostile.
“So captain, what’s your name?”
“Norin, son of Valin, how about you?”
“Dwarven child, how dare you presume to ask our Lords name.”
Arin intimidating presence made the dwarves instinctively take a step back.
“Do you want to fight? Norin son of Valin is no coward!”
Despite his words of bravery, his cowering body betrayed his true self.
“Arin, we did not come here to fight.”
“Dwarf, next time you address my Lord, refer to him as King. Otherwise I’ll munch on that delicious looking head of yours.”
“Ha, just you try it!”
Since that time we no longer exchanged any verbal pleasantries, making for an awkward period of time, until finally the sound of trumpets were heard from within the cave.
“The King has arrived!”
The well dressed Dwarven King appeared before us.
“I am the King under the Mountain, who here speaks of the promise with the Supreme Sage and gifts me a barrel of the World’s nectar?”
He wore very formal clothes but spoke quite amiably.
“It is I, the King of the Pit. I come to help you due to my relationship with the Supreme Sage”
“Hmm….King of the Pit you say. I’ve been hearing rumours of those filthy Elves banding together to deal with you. Is that why you’ve come, do you wish for us to join you?”
“I’m not sure what you’ve heard from the Supreme Sage. but the promise of Valenor is quite risky for us as well, if you fail we will lose our homes. Were you aware of that?”
‘Gnoss, what is he talking about?’
‘Oh that? Don’t worry about it you can handle it.’
‘Handle what? What are we talking about here?’
‘No big deal, you’re good at this stuff.’
‘Just what are you hiding from me?’
‘Just go along with it, I’m also here to help. Regardless this is the easiest way to gain the dwarves’ support.’
I felt something was off, but if I wanted the dwarves to aid me I needed to do as he said.
“I am a friend of the dwarves, the Supreme Sage trusted me, and the King under the Mountain should trust me as well.”
“Hmm… Dwarves keep their promises so we will trust you with this. You guys, escort them to the chamber.”

Plug back into the dangerous world of virtual gaming, in the next thrilling novel from the author of Arena.
Kali Ling isn’t afraid of dying. She’s been killed hundreds of times in hundreds of different ways. And she knows there are things much more terrifying than death…
There’s a new game in town. A brutal, winner-takes-all, international video game tournament between the world’s most elite players, promising fame, prestige, and unbelievable fortune. But there’s a catch. The game uses new VR pods guaranteed to push digital warriors to their physical and psychological brink—adapting every time a gamer makes a move.
As the first female captain and youngest team owner in VGL history, Kali is used to defying the odds. But as the all-star tournament heats up, her determination begins to waver and the pressures of media, sponsors, and the game itself begin to put cracks in her hard-set convictions.
If Kali’s Team Defiance is to survive, they’ll have to find a way to be stronger than ever before. But battling the system may prove too difficult for even the most hardened of fighters…
**I received a copy of Gauntlet via NetGalley for an honest opinion. No compensation was given.**
Gauntlet is the sequel to Arena. It is set about a year after the events of the first book and shows the difficulty Kali is having as an owner, team captain, and a team member. The first book’s main focus (drugs, addiction, and image) makes a reprisal in this book, but I felt it was just to show that our problems will always be a constant battle. Which makes sense.
Our problems don’t go away with the first solution. Sometimes we have to fight to keep what we want.
Now, these issues are still important, but they aren’t the main focus in this book. There is actually a main antagonist in this book! The missing antagonist wasn’t something I cared for in the first bool. So, I was pretty excited to see Kali and co. go against a force that is more than just internal. One that has a lot more power.
I can’t give too much away because the book would be ruined. Even though I found it easy to figure out who the main antagonist is, it didn’t take away my enjoyment of the book. The action is good, the drama between teammates is realistic, and I found myself rooting for Team Defiance all over again.
The downside? The book ended on a messed up cliffhanger and now I have to wait for a third book to come out. I just hope the virtual underdogs can muster up something amazing!
