Presenter: Larry D. McKinney
Commission Agenda Item No. 6
I. DISCUSSION: Outdoor Kids is a program initiated two years ago as a pilot to meet several needs identified in a Department wide assessment of education and outreach. The objective is not to create a new program, but enhance existing ones. The internal goals of Outdoor Kids is to foster integration of Department outreach programs and activities to: assure they have a sound educational base, that they include a component to evaluate effectiveness, and that opportunity is created for kids to participate in the broadest range of outreach offered by TPWD. The external goals are to provide outdoor opportunities for kids, build a foundation for good citizenship, and grow a generation of kids who understand the Texas outdoors ands use it wisely.
In the first year of the pilot 54 different TPWD outreach activities joined under the umbrella of Outdoor Kids and over 5,000 kids participated. This year the number of kids will likely triple and strain our ability to meet demand, a welcome concern because of what it says about the success of the program.
Outdoor Kids is a Lone Star Legacy project of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation. A key element of ensuring the success of Outdoor Kids is building partnerships ðB both financial and programmatic. The funding to expand Outdoor Kids will come from the former and partners like the boy and girl scouts, 4-H, Boys and Girls Clubs, and others will comprise the latter. If anticipated partnerships are secured the Outdoor Kids will: reach 1 out of every 3 Texans under the age of 14; generate a dollar of community in-kind service for every dollar spent; and, triple the number of existing partnerships and volunteers working on youth outreach with TPWD.

WHAT IS CATHOLIC SOCIAL TEACHING?
Catholic social teaching, sometimes referred to as the social doctrine of the Church, is a body of official Church teachings on the social order, composed of papal statements and conciliar or synodal documents. These social teachings originated with Pope Leo XIII and continue to the present.
The Catholic social tradition, however, is much older than this body of teachings, and is rooted in the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures as well as in the patristic writings, which go back as far as the fifth century. This tradition provides a framework and an intellectual legacy from which the more recent (dating from the nineteenth century) social teachings draw. This tradition is a point of reference against which the social teachings are tested, even as the latter develop beyond the tradition by applying it to new issues and questions.
Catholic social teaching is rooted in the dignity of the human person as created in the image of God, and the human rights and duties that protect and enhance this dignity. Catholic social teaching is also concerned with the social nature of the human person, the concept of the common good, the relationship between society and the state, the theory of justice, an "option for the poor," and the concepts of subsidiarity and solidarity.

Astronomy and Astrophysics, volume 536A, 65-65 (2011/12-1)
The VLT-FLAMES survey of massive stars: Nitrogen abundances for Be-type stars in the Magellanic Clouds.
DUNSTALL P.R., BROTT I., DUFTON P.L., LENNON D.J., EVANS C.J., SMARTT S.J. and HUNTER I.
Abstract (from CDS):
We compare the predictions of evolutionary models for early-type stars with atmospheric parameters, projected rotational velocities and nitrogen abundances estimated for a sample of Be-type stars. Our targets are located in 4 fields centred on the Large Magellanic Cloud cluster: NGC2004 and the N11 region as well as the Small Magellanic Cloud clusters: NGC330 and NGC346. Atmospheric parameters and photospheric abundances have been determined using the non-LTE atmosphere code tlusty. Effective temperature estimates were deduced using three different methodologies depending on the spectral features observed; in general they were found to yield consistent estimates. Gravities were deduced from Balmer line profiles and microturbulences from the SiIII spectrum. Additionally the contributions of continuum emission from circumstellar discs were estimated. Given its importance in constraining stellar evolutionary models, nitrogen abundances (or upper limits) were deduced for all the stars analysed. Our nitrogen abundances are inconsistent with those predicted for targets spending most of their main sequence life rotating near to the critical velocity. This is consistent with the results we obtain from modelling the inferred rotational velocity distribution of our sample and of other investigators. We consider a number of possibilities to explain the nitrogen abundances and rotational velocities of our Be-type sample.

Madhya Pradesh proposes death penalty for rape of girls aged 12 and below
Madhya Pradesh has topped sexual offences list in the country over the last decade
The Madhya Pradesh government on Sunday approved a bill to award capital punishment to those convicted of raping girls aged 12 and below.
The bill came up for discussion in the cabinet following a recent announcement by chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan that laws will be strengthened to protect girls.
Briefing journalists after the meeting, state finance minister Jayant Malaiya said the bill known as Public Safety Bill would be introduced in the assembly’s winter session beginning Monday.
Asked if the law extended to punish those who victimise minor boys, he told HT, “We have done this for girls first. We will discuss expanding the scope later.”
On the capital punishment move, Malaiya said, “To ensure death sentence to a rape and gang rape convicts in cases of minor girls of 12 years of age or below, necessary amendments will be required in the sections of Indian Penal Code (IPC). After the required amendments in IPC, the accused will be booked under section 376 AA and 376 DA of IPC.”
According to the proposal, the public prosecutor will be mandatorily heard before an accused moves bail petition, he added.
On the other cabinet decisions to crack down on crimes against women, Malaiya said, “If a woman accuses a man of raping her on the pretext of marrying her, the crime will be treated as a cognisable crime and an amendment will be proposed in section 493 (a) of IPC.”
He added, “If an accused is caught stalking a girl a second time and his crime is proved, he would face a fine of Rs 1 lakh. The habitual offender will be booked under section 110 IPC for non-bailable offence.”
Madhya Pradesh has topped sexual offences list in the country over the last decade.
According to National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) report 2016, Madhya Pradesh reported the highest number of rape cases — 4,391 — in 2015. Maharashtra followed, with 4,144 cases.
According to the report, in sexual offences against children, Madhya Pradesh registered the second highest number of cases — 1,687 — under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act in 2015. Maharashtra registered the highest number of cases, 3,078.
Death penalty in India
In India, death penalty is prescribed for murder, gang robbery with murder, abetting the suicide of a child or insane person, waging war against the government and abetting mutiny by a member of the armed forces.
Capital punishment is also awarded under some anti-terror laws for those convicted of terrorist activities.
Generally, courts award life imprisonment to convicts in a murder case. Only in “rarest of rare” cases, murder convicts are given death penalty.
According to a Supreme Court ruling, “Death penalty should be imposed when a murder is committed in an extremely brutal, grotesque, diabolical, revolting or dastardly manner so as to arouse intense and extreme indignation of the community.
“If the motive betrays depravity and meanness, or if a backward or minority community member is killed not for personal reasons but to arouse social wrath.”
According to the top court’s guidelines, offences such as bride burnings and dowry deaths, a child victim, the assassination of a public figure for political reasons, or killing a defenceless person because of old age or infirmity also attract the death penalty.

The Long-Standing Online Campaign, beginning in Germany, travelling through Italy and Greece to the Sea of Azov.
Thursday, February 7, 2013
First Day out of Fiume
Jan 16, 1651, Friday morning
Weather: with chilly temperatures and a brief drizzle, with calm weather.
Allow me to break the tone of the post by explaining that as these new rules for sea travel (linking it to weather and all) are new to me, I'd like to move forward slowly, get a feeling for it and walk the party through it as well.
So, as the party does board the ship on the 15th, they're somewhat disquieted by a vicious storm that is blowing off the continent, known to the locals as the 'Bura' ... this is a hard wind which, on this particular occasion, by chance, blows only for a short 9 hours before letting up. Madam suspects some higher force may have taken the step of breaking the brief storm, but as early afternoon comes on it allows the Petrel's Wing to set sail. The Bura set down about three inches of snow, and Madam's 30 crew are less than pleased as they shovel off decks and clear ropes for hauling the ship onto the water.
The wind is poor, gentle at first, then reduced to nothing more than a light breeze in the evening, then gentle again throughout the night. With the morning, the weather is dead calm, so that the Petrel does not even have water pouring over the rudder. The ship drifts very slowly between the isles of Cres and Krk, and Madam is beside herself with fury. The progress has been no more than 27 knots. She has nothing good to say about clerics and their accursed meddling with the weather and the good winds, she has less good to say about the month of January and she's positively incensed by the discovery that on her first day out her favorite cheese has been nibbled at by rats. She has the whole crew out in the morning hunting every corner of the ship in the blasted cold trying to kill every rat aboard, while she broods on the quarterdeck glaring back at the passage through which the party has just come.
There's little for the party to do, I know ... and though this may be a bit slow in the running progress, like I say I just want to get a handle on ship movement and travel.

Earlier in July we got down to Mono County, CA for a three day bikepacking tour of the area between June Lakes and Mammoth. The 44 mile route took us through the dry woods of the Inyo National Forest, a zone where the high desert and mountain trees come together. The terrain is volcanic in nature, the sandy route passing through valleys at 7,400 ft elevation and mountain passes at 8,300 ft elevation. The following is a story of our fun adventure.
We started and ended this ride at the June Lakes Junction. There’s a parking lot to the southwest of the general store here for overnight parking. Possibly more important, though, is that June Lake Brewing is less than three miles from this point, a fact that we’d be sure to appreciate on the return trip. And interestingly enough, the farthest point south on our route would be the Mammoth Brewing Company.
“Funny how the logistics are being built around beer.”, I said in our email planning dialog. To which I received a quick and terse response, “I fail to see the humor in this.” A few different variations of routes were developed, but all pivoted around these breweries, two oases in the dry forest. With only two creeks as natural water sources along the route, perhaps I had overlooked the importance of these two man-made watering holes at the far ends.
I planned our route using computer mapping software and paper maps. While this works quite well and gets you in the ballpark, you never really know what you’ll find when you get there. Satellite imagery and topo maps don’t show things like deep sand, rocks, and sticker bushes, and it is always steeper in real life. We rode up HWY 395 to get around the first steep hill, then jumped onto the first dirt road. We were quickly overwhelmed with deep sand and steep climbs, so we bailed out back to the highway to find a more suitable route. We eventually found a mellower dirt road, then rejoined the planned route.
Although we stuck to dirt roads and pavement on this trip, we were glad to have the fat bikes. The dirt roads were mostly decomposed volcanic pumice, coarse sand that felt like a runaway truck ramp at times. They made us work, sometimes even on the downhills. We were happy to get a break on the main routes like the Obsidian Dome Road and Deadman Creek Road, as these were more packed down, even allowing 2 wheel drive cars easy access.
We followed the Obsidian Dome loop for some sightseeing. Domes like this one are composed of gray rhyolite, frothy pumice, and black obsidian. The domes were created by a Phreatic Blast, an explosion that takes place when magma reaches the water table, turns the water to steam, the magma then pushing up and cooling to create rock. It is the high viscosity of the lava that prevents it from flowing far from the vent from which it extrudes. Although the dome was mostly grey, big boulders of obsidian were scattered within the rock pile. True to the description, though, most of the rock debris stopped right at the bottom of the dome.
On the south side of Obsidian Dome, the easy road turned to a steep and twisty Jeep/ATV road. There is no road that continues south here, so we dropped all the way back down to the Highway, losing all the elevation that we gained and then some. This section was the most fun downhill of the whole trip.
We started to see signs for a June to Mammoth Route. Since this was exactly what we were doing, it was nice to see that maybe we were doing something right. As the miles went on, though, it seemed that we saw these markers on several different roads, and that maybe there is not a single designated road, but a network of roads that take you in the right direction. We also saw signs marked Mammoth to June on roads headed north. Most helpful, though, were all the Forest Service road signs. Most of them were on our Forest Service map, and it was easy to check our progress and pick the best road.
As we neared Glass Creek Campground at the bottom of Deadman Summit, we passed a memorial to William Haines, a mail carrier that perished in a blizzard in 1879. It’s said that Haines is among the dead that contributed to the Deadman name in the area. In 1861, the burned and headless body of prospector Robert Hume was found in a shallow grave, his head later discovered nearby in a stream now known as Deadman Creek. And a few years later, the remains of two nameless prospectors were found near the bottom of what is now Deadmans Pass. All reminders of the sometimes lawless and hard life of the wild west.
Just off Highway 395 is the Glass Creek Campground. This free campground was full of RVs, many hauling ATVs to explore all the area roads. This campground does not have water faucets, but water can be filtered out of the creek here if needed. It didn’t look like it would be the quietest of places for bikepacking.
We continued southwest towards Deadman Creek Road. The road was soft here, and I remember thinking it felt like the steepest flat road ever. We were soon at the heavily used Deadman Creek Road, though, and it gave us a nice break. Even the climbs weren’t too bad.
We stopped at Deadman Creek Campground to check it out. Deadman Creek separates lower and upper camping loops. It was quiet and tempting to stay, but we still had plenty of miles and daylight left in us. We decided to press on to Mammoth.
From the campground, we headed south along the base of the Deadman Lava Dome. The rolling terrain continued for quite a while here, never descending or climbing for very long. We passed a turnoff to Inyo Craters, two deep craters with water in the bottom of them, but didn’t have the energy to climb the hill to see them. As the miles went by, our desire to get to Mammoth increased.
We started to see some mountain bike trail signs the closer we got to Mammoth. Not knowing what they symbolized, they looked pretty confusing. The occasional singletrack crossed the road, so it’d be nice to learn where these go and incorporate them into a future ride. They weren’t on our map, though, so we didn’t chance being led into an unexpected hill climb or in the wrong direction.
We eventually made it down to the Mammoth Scenic Loop, a paved road leading into the town of Mammoth Lakes. Before we got to town though, we had to first climb up and over a pass, the highest point of the whole ride. The pavement made the climbing slightly easier, but the road seemed to go on forever and we were tired. Finally we topped out and got to coast or pedal easy down into town.
We were in for a shock to the senses. One moment we were in the woods, and the next we were in the resort community of Mammoth Lakes. It had been mostly quiet all day, but now there were people everywhere. Live music filled the air from the Reggae Festival in progress. We continued down the road through all the activity, intending to check out the Shady Rest Campground. Suddenly, breaking from his exhausted posture on the bike, one rider exclaimed, “It’s the Mammoth Brewing Company!”. He pedaled ahead with new found energy, directing us off the road where there was a sign that read, “Beer Garden”. Another sign pointed bikes to a nearby and full bike rack. We parked and entered the beer garden that was full of all sorts of outdoor type folks. We couldn’t have been more happy at that moment. The campground could wait.
After filling our bellies with beer, BBQ, and burgers, we rode off to check out the Shady Rest Campground about a mile down the road. When we got there, both loops were full to capacity. We stopped to top off our water, then headed north into the woods where one of the locals said to go if the campground was not available. It didn’t take us too long to find a suitable place to pitch the tents.
With dinner out of the way, there wasn’t much to do besides setup camp, hang the food so the bears wouldn’t get it, and hang out until dark. We talked until nightfall, but when we saw that it was 9:00 PM, we all headed off to our tents without hesitation. I slept great that night, and didn’t get up until 7:30 AM, the longest I’d slept in in a while.
We didn’t have a plan for the second day yet. Although it would’ve been nice to explore Mammoth Lakes some more, we all wanted to make some mileage north for the day, and not have a huge ride on the third day. We also didn’t want to climb way up through town again, so we looked at the map and discovered that we could just keep heading north from our location and get to where we needed to be.
With limited water sources available, we decided to head back to Deadman Campground. We chose roads with gentle climbing and the most direct path to our destination. The riding experience on this morning could actually be described at pleasant, just a cruise through the woods. Especially when compared to the previous day.
By noon we were back at Deadman Campground after only two hours of riding. It seemed strange to stop so soon, but the only other water sources weren’t very desirable. We chose to setup camp and have a day of leisure. The creek is the only available water source at the campground, but it was nice and clean. We all filtered or treated water throughout the day to get rehydrated. A couple of the guys had fishing licenses and tried their luck in the creek. I chose to explore the area on foot and even took a much needed dip in the cool creek.
Later in the day one of our anglers came back to camp with half the posted daily limit: One smallish rainbow trout. Quite the bounty! The previous camper left some firewood, and I had some aluminum foil in my fire kit handy to wrap up the fish. Dinner was started. While the fish was smokey and delicious, we were all glad that we had brought additional food with us. It did make a nice side dish, though. While our freeze dried dinners weren’t quite up to par with the food in Mammoth Lakes, we all ate good that night. Evening cocktails were courtesy of Pronghorn Spirits, a brand new Carson City area distillery! The whiskey made a nice end to the relaxing day, and paired well with the evening campfire.
There are a few community bear boxes scattered throughout this campground, but none were very near our site. Additionally, some were padlocked by campers that were away. We ended up hanging our food again, so I was glad that we had brought 50 feet of cord with us to get the job done. The stuff sacks and bike bags doubled as great bear bags to hoist up into the air.
We got up early the next morning, eager to get out on the trail before the heat of the day. We agreed that the first person up would get the rest of us up. This worked well with the exception of one camper. He took about 20 minutes longer to wake up, partially because he decided to sleep with ear plugs in. Small stones thrown at the tent had no effect. An elevated, “Good Morning!” aroused no movement in the sleeping chamber. Yikes! Did the Deadman legend live up to its name? I went back to my coffee to return later. Finally, a harsh wrapping on the tent poles mixed with shouting brought the comatose camper to life. “It’s 6:20 AM!!”, he lamented. I wasn’t sure if he was irritated that we let him sleep in, or if he was simply appalled that his slumber was over. But whatever, he agreed to the wake up time, so it wasn’t my problem. I went back to my coffee.
We were packed up and ready to go much earlier this morning. The biggest challenge of the weekend now awaited us: The campground bathroom. We must’ve timed it a few days before its biannual cleaning. Those that returned from the evil brown shack brought back horror stories of a suffocating evil that lies within, stoking the fears of those who had not yet been. But being brave, we all took our turn and survived. A walk off into the woods would’ve been a much better choice.
Not wanting to attempt the steep sandy climbs of Obsidian Dome, we set a course for Glass Creek to meet up with the highway. We got a few easy miles out of the way with a descent to the pavement. While climbing the road wasn’t the most interesting route, the lighter Sunday morning traffic and cool temperatures made the trip up Deadman Summit tolerable. The shoulder is nice and wide here, and there was even a phone signal, allowing me to check in with home during the climb.
Happy to get to the top of Deadman Summit without much difficulty, we searched for a route back that would get us off the pavement and back into the dirt. We found just what we were looking for along a powerline road. It went off into the distance, and looked like it would take us just about all the way to the trailhead.
We were way ahead of schedule as we made the final climb. Still, my legs knew we were almost back and started to give up the fight. I was happy to see the pavement again and fly down the hill back to June Lakes Junction. We got the bikes and gear all loaded up, and headed up the June Lakes Loop to get to June Lake Brewing. We arrived to find that we were just 10 minutes shy of opening time at 10:50 AM. We waited patiently outside, and then ordered the first brews of the day. At first I felt funny ordering a beer so early, but then the place quickly filled up to capacity. A nearby food truck delivered a heaping plate of nachos and tacos. It was the perfect end of the ride!
This being only my second bikepacking trip, I learned a few things over the weekend. I’m used to packing for hiking backpacking trips. In this scenario, everything is separated by function, bagged, and dropped into the big backpack for easy retrieval later. This turns out not to work so well for bikepacking. With numerous packs of various shapes and sizes on the bike, it’s best to pack something where it fits best. This means un-grouping things, and and then sometimes later trying to remember where the heck you packed it. Only one rider in the group did the trip without a backpack on. The weird thing, though, is that he seemed to have everything, almost to the point that we believed he had a magical bottomless bag. What we noticed, though, is that he had a few more smaller bags on the bike than we did. He also took the extra time to repackage items into the smallest possible containers. If there was a smaller version of some item available, he had it. I plan to go through my gear again, and see where I can improve. There were definitely a few items I never took out of my pack once. A couple more small bags may be ordered soon as well.
As far as the route goes, I don’t think there is a right or wrong way to do this trip. There are so many roads to choose from, that I think it’s just best to explore and do what feels best for you.
And finally, I learned that I really enjoyed bikepacking. Can’t wait to get out and do it all again!

This post has nothing to do with my Mema and everything to do with my fall break trip to Florence. Additionally, please ignore the fact that I am wearing the same shirt in every photo and that my trip spans over four days. I packed extremely lightly for this trip and did wear things at other times of day and on the one day I am not in any photos. Thank you for your understanding.
One of my number one destinations during my semester here in Paris was always Italy. My plan was to head to Rome, but after a friend decided to go to Iceland instead, my agenda changed to Florence. And thank goodness.
My parents have always told me their favorite city is Florence, and now I completely understand why. My three short days there were not nearly enough and I am already planning my return for someday far in the future.
A friend from school, Taylor, is studying abroad there this semester and she so graciously hosted me. From seeing the Birth of Venus to walking the streets of Florence till a ridiculous hour of the morning, I could not have asked for a better vacation. I've really been feeling stressed lately with school and such and going to Florence helped me gain some perspective and understand what this semester abroad is truly about.
As soon as I arrive on Wednesday, Taylor and I went out for a walk. She took me all over. It is so drastically different from Paris but beautiful in its own way. You walk everywhere, which is such a huge difference from Paris. The streets are small and all sort of look the same, but you rarely have to worry about cars and congestion everywhere you go. After our walk, she dropped me off at the Uffizi Gallery where I wondered around for a bit. I then popped into a cafe for a tea, read my book, and headed back to Taylor's apartment where we got ready for dinner and going out for Halloween. We ate at an incredible pizza place called Gusta's. I took a business card and taped it into my journal. Some of the best pizza I've ever had. Don't get wrong, New York pizza is one of my favorite foods in the world, but this place is unparalleled.
After dinner, we went out to a bar to celebrate halloween then wandered around the city taking silly photos. It was tons of a fun. We also stopped in a bar called Ebby's. A man named Ebby, who resembles Einstein, owns the bar so we ordered a shot named after him. He gives you a plate with orange slices, coffee grounds, sugar, and banana with something on it. You take the orange slice, place it in the coffee grounds then the sugar. You place the orange on your tongue coffee grounds side down and eat it you. You then take the alcohol with something mixed with coke (which was tough for me since I HATE soda) then eat the banana. It was such an experience all on it's own!
On Thursday, we spent the day walking around again and went to a beautiful spot that looks out on the entire city of Florence. It was truly amazing. I had such an emotional moment when we first stepped off the stairs and I saw my first glimpse of the city from up there. I know I say this all the time, but all my life, I've seen photos of this exact scene, and here I was, seeing it with my own eyes. We have a photo of Florence hanging in our house that my parents took when they visited, and now I have my own photos of the same beautiful city. I am so lucky.
Friday was another amazing day. We first went to a market to buy food to make for dinner. I'm not sure what it was, but the market gave me an amazing feeling about life. I had no idea a food market could do that. Everyone was so pleasant, sharing food and conversing. For some reason, this little market in a random place in Florence helped me realize how beautiful life can be. No matter how cheesy it sounds, it's what I felt at that moment and may never forget. After buying food for dinner, we took the bus up a giant hill to a small town called Fiesole. Taylor and I packed a lovely picnic lunch and proceeded to walk. We wanted to find a great spot to eat lunch, and that we did. We found a spot that not only looked over Florence, but gave us a marvelous view of the hills and mountains surrounding the city. As we were sitting have our lunch of fruit, cheese, and bread, two men passed us and told us we were far from the spot where Leonardo da Vinci took his first flight. We, of course, decided to go explore. Again, we found an incredible look out spot. We followed some trail markers and found a few cool things, but, unfortunately, couldn't find the exact spot of his flight. It was an incredible day of beautiful views, good food, and great friends and Taylor and I both absolutely loved every minute of it.
Saturday was my last morning in Florence. Taylor and I woke up and quickly headed to the train station where we made our way to Pisa to see the leaning tower. It was honestly one of the strangest sights I've ever seen. It was a bit smaller that I was expecting and, of course, beautiful to see. But really, it was so strange. You feel as though your mind is playing tricks on you. We took a ton of silly photos of ourselves but also of other people taking their own photos. Seeing the photos being taken is quite hilarious and I'm sure we looked ridiculous as well!
Overall, my trip to Florence was absolutely incredible. Having a break from Paris and stress was much needed. I hope to have a chance to explore the rest of Italy some day and of course return to Florence. It is such a unique place and, as my dad says, frozen in time. Thank you for reading. Hope you enjoyed! Much love <3

Like I have mentioned before, my mom loves handmade gifts. This art project turned out to be one of my favorite things that I have made for her. It is really very simple and it will take you no time to create one of your own. You will need a piece of canvas, acrylic paint and a print out of family names. I printed mine on light yellow cardstock. The thickness of the paper kept it from getting crinkled. The shade made it look a bit more antique.
Start by swirling different shades of blue around to make the sky. Spread it down until it covers about 3/4 of the canvas. After that use a mix of greens to make the grass. After that, start building your tree. I made a small outline and gradually added to the size until I has happy with it. Once the paint was dry, I cut out everyone’s name and grouped the small family sections together in chronological order. After the pattern was appropriate, I began gluing them all into place. Seal them with Mod Podge once the adhesive is dry.
This looks really nice hanging near family photos. It was a fun project and could be a really enjoyable way to research for family lineage.

The days before camp starts are always packed with the most varied tasks – from buying ball jars and sunscreen to making name tags and natural dye’s for tie dye, camp planning always keeps us on our toes!
On a recent scouting trip, we had the pleasure of visiting one of our partners in the field, the New York Botanical Gardens. Our trip to the impressive Ruth Rea Howell Family Garden, and the Edible Academy was filled with beautiful sights, wonderful people and a gorgeous edible garden.
We learned all about their growth plans, as they construct a new facility on the grounds of the family garden to better serve “as the hub for edible education at NYBG.” The designs are filled with staff input and vision, and will allow for an even more robust experience for all who visit.
We highly recommend spending a day at the garden to participate in the various programming activities that they host everyday like, daily, hands-on gardening activities; and programs presented in conjunction with Garden friend and chef extraordinaire, Mario Batali.
Our campers are going to absolutely love their trip to this inspiring space, filled with fresh air, lush edible landscapes, and brilliant learning experiences.
Three cheers for NYBG!

A groove wrapped around a melody wrapped around a memory. A voice that makes you feel something real. Light, swirling textures grounded by bass lines with power and purpose—bass lines that push you forward.
Deutsch Duke’s free-range take on electronica is the soundtrack to the moments that matter.
From old school soul through to hip hop, pop, funk and rock, Dennis Dowlut has traversed genres as a producer, multi-instrumentalist and vocalist. Full of unexpected trials, unlooked for success and sharp left turns, Dennis learned to follow his instincts on a trajectory through the industry which has been anything but typical.
“Sometimes I’m not sure if I’m a producer who sings or a singer who produces music,” Dennis admits, “but at least it’s a lane that nobody else is in”. With skills in all corners of studio and stage and a thirst for collaboration, Dennis has become a prized contributor in recording studios across Australia, working with the likes of Set Mo, Muto, Peking Duk and Flight Facilities. But it hasn’t been an easy road…
Back in 2005, having landed a record deal with his brother Darren, Dennis was on the ground in LA and primed to launch a career in The States when Darren was diagnosed with a virulent cancer, which would soon claim his life.
Both the devastating loss and cherished memory of his brother have had a profound impact on Dennis’ music and decision making ever since.
Inspired by his family’s soul-heavy musical upbringing, Dennis formed the outfit Electric Empire – recording a live album which cruised on a funk wave straight out of the 1970s. The retro sounds were picked up by Glastonbury bookers, and a slot at the iconic festival launched a series of European tours and label deals which would take the group through the next few years.
These days Dennis comes to your ears as solo project Deutsch Duke, his diversity of experience and depth of emotion channeled into evocative and atmospheric electronica. His forthcoming mixtape presents a brilliant patchwork of sound and feeling, built from the ground up. “I’ve got this habit of recording everything. If I go to church and hear a choir, or even conversations I have with my weird-ass friends. They are the best moments, and the bare bones of how I start making a track.”
Melody led and texturally rich, Deutsch Duke’s music is at once soothing and cinematic. “I’m not a bangers guy” he admits.
Chosen as the first release from new label, Risqué, his latest track ‘So Real’ is a stellar return. An expression of cathartic release, it’s delivered with the vocal prowess and lightness of touch that is fast becoming The Duke’s calling card.
“I wrote ‘So Real’ about Darren—it’s about loss. When my son was born, I went through this whole grieving process again, realising that Darren would never know him.”
“Remember me, remember me” – the warped vocal refrain loops into infinity, threatening to hold us in the moment forever before the chorus – full, free and more than a little wild – releases us. Lifts us. We join the forward march of synth and bass and look up into the sky, look forward into the future.
Aesthetic forms an important aspect of Dennis’ creative output, and the music video for ‘So Real’, directed by Jonathan Vassallo, features his son Bastien in the ultimate freedom of nature—a creative way to forever connect two of the people he loves most.
The power to heal, to travel back in time, the power to hope, to escape, to communicate, to love… it’s all in there, in between the chords. Deutsch Duke’s music may be a smooth cruise to the ears, but its impact runs deep.

Unravelling the Masonic Web of Favoritism, Cronyism, & Corruption
Citizens acting on a local basis have the power within them to undermine the power base of Freemasonry and thereby lesson it's corrosive influence in a number of important area's by employing basic time tested political activist tactics.
Freemasons seek to maintain their effective control over political, governmental, judicial, business, and religious institutions in the U.S., U.K., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the British Commonwealth, and the West by employing the 'combined power' of their secret membership in the 'fraternity'. In fact Freemasons think of themselves as an 'ex-officio' level of government'. A secret and occult power.
Therefore a focus on elected and appointed Officials in these indicated sectors being required to make mandatory declarations of masonic membership to avoid possible conflict of interest suspicions is extremely important.
The U.K. and other Nations have recently enacted a number of requirements requiring this type of discloure after conducting thorough investigations.
Local Government, the Judicial System, especially Law Enforcement are area's that have high levels of Masonic membership. Political Parties, the Military and related industry, Foreign Service and related Academia including Policy 'Think Tanks' and Social Sciences, Labour Union movements, Civic organizations such as Kiwannis and Rotary which can be used as local government political machines, are other area's of interest to Masonic Membership 'Placement'. It is no small co-incidence that the Masonic Temple is often located across the street, or very near to, city halls and seats of governance.
Corporate codes of conduct and Professional Bodies can be worked on also, there has been some recent success in getting Freemasonry membership declaration added to codes of ethics in Europe.
Inside the Church's you should be aware that Freemasonry makes an extra effort to exert it's influence, especially by using the wives of Freemasons. Often Pastors and Church Leaders will be under extreme pressure by Freemasons not to issue teachings on Freemasonry and Christianity.
Documents outlining your Church's current teaching on Freemasonry continue to be suppressed in many denominations, which allow Masons to recruit members of the church with greater ease, especially if the Priest, Pastor, or Lay Leadership are high ranking members of the Lodge itself. For this reason Masons can not be allowed to hold official positions in the Church. Great care and thoroughness of investigation is often necessary to reveal Masonic memberships, due to the oaths of secrecy taken during initiation.
Freemasonry relies on secrecy, and the most important secret is not it's handshakes and passwords it is the secrecy of membership itself. Freemasons work and act together in a co-ordinated fashion to promote their career's, business's and anti-christian socio-religious & globalist agenda's. 'The Beehive'. It is a network whose currency is favoritism - in secret. Remove the secrecy of their membership and the strength of the network is effectively broken.
E-mails, letters, phone-calls. Basic political work.
The 'big picture' will take care of itself, if Freemasonry loses it's base - i.e. it's source of power: institutional placement of members. Then shunned by normal society they will become marginalized to the point of irrelevance. Exactly where something as corrosive and destructive as the occult belongs.
Recent News Articles you may wish to refer to in your e-mails and letters
Employment in positions of trust inside Church or State by Members of Secret Societies, such as Freemasonry, is highly inadvisable because their unlawful and brutal oaths put them in an irreconciliable conflict of interest with their fiduciary duties to the public and the faithful.

You must conceal all crimes of your brother Masons...and should you be summoned as a witness against a brother Mason be always sure to shield him...It may be perjury to do this, it is true, but you're keeping your obligations.

Yeah, that’s me. I’m a list maker. I haven’t gone so far as to buy one of those ‘list journals,’ but as you can probably tell by now, I’m a big fan of putting my thoughts in numerical order. Today is no exception.
I was asked by a reader this week to give a summary of my travels thus far. And everyone knows, of all the lists there are, summaries are the best. So here are my travel summary lists, just for you Jenni!
Top Adventures (Things That Require Tickets):
- Stargazing in Chile, complete with tour guide and telescope views.
- Zip lining in Switzerland.
- Touring the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, Turkey.
- Touring a tuna port in The Philippines.
- Cooking class in Thailand.
- Free walking tours. You just pay a tip at the end. I’ve done them in Chile, Quebec, and several countries in Europe and have enjoyed them every time.
- Every meal in Quebec, including the pastries, eggs, poutine, chocolate dipped ice cream, and french onion soup. Literally every meal was a win!
- New York City. The variety is overwhelmingly delicious. I wrote about it here.
- Vietnamese egg sandwiches. I don’t have a picture, but imagine soy sauce and carrots and something green with eggs on a french baguette. Such an interesting mix!
- Fresh shrimp tapas in Spain. Delicious, but also the first time I’ve met shrimp with so many eyes. It was a food adventure!
- Drinking tea in the Patagonias.
- Running to a sunset in Italy.
- Waking up to a full window sunrise in Santiago, Chile.
- Funny conversations with our waiter in Istanbul.
- Left side driving in Ireland.
- Hanging out in the park on Sunday afternoons in Guatemala and making friends with the little vendor girls. They entertained us and we entertained them. Plus, we all got to practice our Spanish!
- Hiking. I’m not a very outdoorsy person (aka, I have minimal survival skills and tolerance of bugs) and yet somehow I find myself hiking when I travel and loving it. The Alps in Europe, the Patagonias in Chile, a volcano in Guatemala, the Sierra Nevadas in California, and paths between coastal villages in Italy each added variety to my travels, a sense of accomplishment for the day, and unanticipated beauty.
- Traveling Europe during peak tourist season. Tourists are my least favorite kind of crowd.
- Not zip-lining in Thailand.
- Not snorkeling in Honduras.
- Booking tickets too late in Europe and missing out on a few places.
- Wearing flip flops while hiking in Italy.
Countries I’ve Visited:
- The Philippines
- Northern Ireland
- Czech Republic
US Cities I’ve Visited:
- San Diego
- New York City
- Washington D.C.
- San Francisco
Next Countries on My Wish List:
- Morocco- to experience the beauty and culture.
- Cuba- to experience the preserved culture while it lasts.
- Norway- because those fjords look beautiful!
- Singapore/Hong Kong or any ginormous city in Asia- just because I wonder if I’d ever feel like there is such a thing as a city that is too big.
- Namibia or somewhere in southern Africa- I had a classmate once from Namibia and it always sounded interesting to me.
- Peru- for Machu Picchu views and the potato variety, and because traveling in Spanish-speaking countries is extra fun for me because I speak Spanish.
Now it’s your turn! Leave a comment and let me know:
- Your favorite adventure.
- Favorite food you can’t get at home.
- Favorite travel memory.
- A travel regret.
- How many countries and/or states you’ve visited. You can list them if you want.
- Next place on your list.

Finding a place to rent can be very difficult and it is not the easiest thing to do, it can take a lot of time to find the right place for you. With the following tips you can prepare yourself for finding the ideal property for you and you will find that it is much easier than you would have experienced before.
Find a good agent
One of the best things that you can do to find a great rental property is of course to find a reputable agent. This is absolutely crucial for making sure that everything is above board and that there aren’t any nasty surprises during the process. I really appreciate the services of using established names like Walton Robinson, who have a lot of experience in the industry and can really help you to find what you are looking for.
One of the things that you can do to get yourself a viewing is to actually call ahead and make yourself known to the owner or agent. This is ideal because you are putting a voice to your name and you aren’t just a number. Of course you can always go and see the agent personally and you can try to make a good impression. You should of course be prepared and dress appropriate, you should look respectable when making a visit and you would be surprised how this can impact your ability to actually get a rental property.
Ask the right questions
In the end you don’t want to be shocked by anything that comes with your rental property and therefore it is a great idea to prepare a list of questions to ask before you get there. Remember that asking questions is of course part of the process and the agent or owner should of course be willing to answer them. If you are ever unsure, you should definitely ask, because a small problem could lead to a bigger one in the end.
When you actually inspect a property, it is really important to make sure that everything is functioning correctly and to raise any concerns that you may have. I find that people I know become annoyed by things that they didn’t realise were a problem when viewing a rental property. It is important to know what you are looking for, such as things like a small sink or a bathroom with the shower and toilet in the same room. You can of course accept small things like these, but they may become an issue for you over time.

Successfully getting your whole team to agree on a decision can be tricky at the best of times.
But getting full agreement on new technology which is going to cost your team money, time, resource, and impacts the wider business? That’s a whole different challenge.
And it’s one that’s shared with many businesses.
Therefore, if you are approaching implementing new technology into your team, it’s essential that you get appropriate buy-in from the very start. Else face negativity, questioning, and a lack of engagement further down the line.
At Bright Dials, we have helped countless businesses implement technology into their teams. And we’ve learned a few things along the way.
So here are our top tips to help you get team buy-in for new technology.
Tie technology into your goals
Teams can become anxious spending their limited resources on technology that might not generate results or benefits.
Even when the budget is available, businesses can struggle to justify investing in new technology and the implementation process that accompanies this.
To address these concerns, the technology needs to fit into your team’s goals.
For example, if a key goal is to improve lead nurturing, then a CRM can achieve exactly that through managing data and automating communications. Whilst also reducing time spent on fiddly, manual tasks.
You can complement this approach by offering tangible benefits to the wider team. For example, hours saved, contacts that could be communicated with automatically, and estimates of leads that will convert into customers.
By presenting these metrics you will be proving that the technology is not only beneficial to the team. It is actually essential.
Address key pain points
This brings us neatly onto our second point.
Key goals and strategic focus areas bring a lot of benefits to a business. But for the individuals, their own pain points are often what they are most keen to address.
So dig out these pain points and showcase how your new technology can address them. Offering real-life examples, and identifying the features and functionality that specific team members will get the most benefit from.
You can even ask your technology provider for relevant examples, case studies, and references to offer additional proof of how other businesses have had these pain points resolved.
And once you have buy-in, encourage these advocates to share their enthusiasm with other team members with similar pain points to theirs.
Perfect your pitch
Depending on the size of your team or business, there may be a lot of individuals you need to get buy-in from.
By developing a pitch to sell this technology internally, you will be able to offer a description of the technology, its key highlights, and the benefits it brings. All in a straightforward and concise way.
Consider using the information you have gathered already, such as an overview of key goals and pain points for the business, and present how the technology addresses these.
You can even tie in success stories from brands who have benefited from the technology with your case study examples.
Communication is key for any collaborative process. So when implementing a new technology, keep everyone involved as up to date as possible.
Involve them in your conversations prior to purchasing the technology, encouraging them to help you define scope and usage. And ensure you continue a regular check-in process during and post implementation.
Regular check-ins offer users a chance to voice any concerns or queries, before complacency and lack of engagement kicks in. They also offer you a chance to showcase new features, functionality, and updates to improve usage and buy-in.
Check-ins shouldn’t just be internal. They should also be with your technology provider. Make sure they are engaging with you regularly to review your progress with the technology, any work that has been completed, and to offer strategic solutions moving forward.
After all, businesses and technology are constantly evolving. So it’s important to address and maximise changes as and when they occur.
Offer ongoing training and support
Greater adoption of technology produces greater ROI. And collaboration between users is where the real power and ROI of technology is seen.
That’s why technology buy-in isn’t just important prior to implementation. It’s essential during and post-implementation too.
So to keep others engaged in the process, offer ongoing training from the very start. After all, what better way to get others using the technology than by showing them exactly how to.
Training can be done internally in a variety of formats. Group sessions, webinars, one-to-one, and even cheat sheets.
But also ensure you have ongoing support from your technology provider. That there is someone on-hand to fix any problems, answer your questions, support with strategy and challenges. And generally be an extra pair of hands to do the work for you.
If you are looking to implement new technology into your team or business, but need some support in getting everyone engaged, we can help. Simply email firstname.lastname@example.org or book a free Discovery Call. All we need is 45 minutes of your time.

That’s a relief because many of us started our world exploration with children’s magazines that introduced us to many of our sports and pop heroes. Not to mention, it did wonders for general knowledge.
Children’s magazines like their adult counterparts also have accompanying websites. A visitor who drops by won’t be able to distinguish between an online magazine and a website (or blog). Most of the online versions of the children’s magazines also publish the same content; partly if not all.
The online face of a children’s magazine might include interactive graphical content that’s not possible in print. So, it really helps if you can go over to the online magazine while flipping the pages of a printed one.
What’s your favorite online magazine for kids? Here are five that are worth a look and a read.
Parents, students, and teachers can take the help of this quality resource to learn about people, places, science, space, history, nature, and assorted fun activities. The children’s online magazine targets them in the age group of 8-14. Interactive content includes videos, games, photos, blogs, etc. This is one online magazine that parents and teachers will always recommend without hesitation.
TIME magazine for adults might be too serious a read. The version for kids isn’t but it does go deep with a lot of educational content and teaching resources that’s helpfully arranged around grades. The weekly classroom news magazine covers world affairs and aims to develop the reading and analyzing habit in kids. It’s not somber stuff as you can see what Harry Potter is doing in New York or download quizzes, worksheets and other learning resources.
Reading up on sports is why most kids gravitate to magazines around the world. There’s something about those glossy images and center-spread posters. SIKids.com is updated daily with news, games, and interactive features. Not only photos, as an online magazine for kids, you get sports videos also. What’s cooler is the entire section titled ““ Build. Here you can make some of your dreams come true virtually, like design your own car or have a NBA matchup.
Pre-teen girls need all the advice they can get on friendship and lifestyle. Discovery Girls covers it with advice, tips, little quizzes, There’s a regular section on Health & Beauty, a blog, and an advice section. There’s also fun stuff with downloads, giveaways, games, quizzes, and contests.
An offline and online magazine for elementary school students that features a lot of educational tools for teachers and students alike. The About Us page of the site that’s Weekly Reader is one of the oldest classroom magazines in the United States and its complete range of magazines are arranged around grades from Pre-K to grade 12. The online version also reflects some of the content (and more) that can be found in the print publication. You have news, articles, and downloadable classroom kits. Lot of the tools are interactive and based around nicely designed stories that makes learning fun. Some sections are open to only subscribers tough.
Highlights.com brings out magazines for kids of ages 2-12. The publication group’s credo is to help children become their best selves. The online homepage of the magazine is more for merchandizing but it also gives you further websites to explore like Puzzlemaniakids.com and Highlightskids.com. Play free online puzzles, solve riddles, go creative with fun activities, and even learn a little about nature and science at these two sites. For instance, you can go into a story adventure (Goofus and Gallant) or create your own stories at The Timbertoes. Highlightsparents.com is another site for parents and parenting tips that worth a browse.
One of the most “˜popular’ websites on science and invention doesn’t have a separate website dedicated to kids, but you can get to the articles that are tagged for the younger lot. And you can also search 138 years of Popular Science by using keywords like kids or children. It’s not as in-your-face as the other kids only magazine websites, but the sheer richness of the content is worth a hard search.
The online versions of children’s magazines may not be as rich in content as the real world versions, but they do bring a greater degree of interactivity. Also, you can easily get an idea of the content of past and present issues and use the hint to go and buy the printed magazine if you think your kid could do with it. More importantly, online children’s magazine gives you another valuable kid’s resource to mine for learning and fun.
What do you think of online children’s magazines? Do name your favorite.

The Realtree MAX-5 BodyBag 4/3 from LensCoat is a rubber neoprene cover, which is ideal for storage and travel, that slips over select Micro Four Thirds cameras. Moreover, cameras with approximate dimensions of 4.75 x 3 x 3.75" will also fit the neoprene cover. Inside the cover there is a snap hook which attaches to the camera and stays tethered when the cover is taken off.
The rubber neoprene is shock-absorbing, which protects the camera against scratches and dents, and the front element disk protector provides additional protection to the camera's lens. Additionally, all the contents are kept secure, as well as dust and dirt-free, with the hook-and-loop closure.

And with this post, I am finally caught up after my vacation!
This week’s prompt about Mother’s Day is so special because I have wonderful relationships with the three most important mothers in my life – my mom and my two grandmothers. I feel very fortunate to know them as well as I do, and to have had them in my life for almost 29 years. For this post, I combed through my family tree looking for other mothers that might be fun to write about.
I chose Hannah Rockwood Chapin, who gave birth to 13 children, if not more! If that doesn’t make her an impressive mother, I don’t know what does! Hannah is another female ancestor that I don’t know very much about, but the few details I do have make me want to travel to New England and Pennsylvania to do some more research.
Hannah was born on December 3, 1755 in the town of Mendon in Worcester County, Massachusetts. Her parents were Reuben and Lydia (Green) Rockwood. Hannah was the oldest of several siblings including Lydia, Joshua Green, Beulah, and Jason. She and her family moved from Mendon to Tyringham in Berskshire County by the time she was 20 years old. In Tyringham, she met her husband, John Chapin. They married in Tyringham on 7 December 1775. John Chapin was born on 23 September 1755 in Uxbridge, Massachusetts, the son of Solomon and Joanna (White) Chapin.
Hannah and John’s first child, Lydia was born in May 1776, just 5 months after their marriage, which means Hannah was likely several months pregnant when she married John. In total, Hannah gave birth to her thirteen children over a 23 year period:
Lydia, born 1776
Samuel, born 1778
John, born 1779
Alta, born 1781
Mary, born 1783
Mercy Ester, born 1784
Lois, born 1786
James, born between 1786-1791
Joanna, born 1791
Lucinda, born 1793
Ammi, born 1793
Reuben, born 1797
Ezra, born 1799
Hannah must have been a very strong woman. In 1793, She had back-to-back pregnancies, and both Lucinda and Ammi were born in the same year. What is even more impressive is that all 13 children lived to adulthood! These 13 are just her recorded children. It is possible that she had more children that went unrecorded, especially if they died at birth.
By 1790, Hannah and John had moved from Tyringham to Huntington Township in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. They lived in Huntington for the remainder of their lives. Hannah died on 20 Jan 1829 when she was 73 years old, and was buried in the Town Hill Cemetery. John died 10 years later. I don’t know what Hannah’s personality was like, or even if she was a good mother, as having 13 children doesn’t automatically make her a good person. But I hope she was a good mother, and that her daughters found her inspirational, just as I’ve found my mother and grandmothers to be so.
Happy Mother’s Day!

Three Green Peppers
I haven't been painting much this week, but I managed to get one done tonight. Like all of these I like the actual painting better than I like the photo of it. i have a stupid little point and shoot and I'm shooting under artificial light, but the colors are pretty close - a little muddy and a little too green.
Well, I just might paint another one tonight - I'm not tired at all. I was when I first got home, but I had dinner - a kale, lemon, apple, ginger, celery, tomato concoction and I feel awake! Must be the effects of green energy. Perhaps this is the true source of Hal Jordan's powers? Probably not, but i sure do feel good. Enjoy!

SOCIAL media has, in recent years, taken off like goodness knows what. You’ll struggle to find somebody nowadays that doesn’t have SOME form of social media platform under their name, whether it be Facebook, Tumblr or even Linked In. Our world might be a pretty big place, but it sure doesn’t feel it when you’re chatting to Great Aunt Norma in Sydney via Facebook Chat.
Keeping in the loop with friends, family, news, celeb gossip and more is an integrated and almost expected factor of life on the internet, and more and more people are taking to social media sites to get their fix of ‘in the know’.
Facebook. Ah, the giant that keeps us all connected; allowing people to stalk to their hearts content with absolutely nobody knowing (unless you accidentally type their name in the status box, not the search one… ever done that? No, me neither…..) If I think about it too much, I get a little creeped out. I mean, somebody gawping over things I have on FB isn’t a nice thought.
But that’s not all it’s used for. Channel 4 have launched a special report they’ve named Data Baby. By creating a authentic Facebook user, by the name of Rebecca Taylor, they have been surfing the wild world wide web to find out exactly how what we do online is monitored, recorded, and what is then done with that data.
I saw this on the news tonight, and I was shocked at what I saw… Likes. We all know what they are. Coincidence, as I was listening to Radio 1 this week and tuned into a conversation about why the LIKE button should be renamed, to something less offensive as ‘acknowledged’. I mean, nobody likes having their boyfriend’s new profile picture to be liked by tens of others of girls, do they?
But anyway, I digress. The Data Baby report has outed the lucrative and worldwide industry of the farming, stealing and transporting of our like clicks. That’s right, they found that there were hundreds of sites that are selling Facebook likes, ‘to make any Facebook business page more credible’. REALLY?
I’ll tell you why this bothers me so. When I look at a page, for a company or business that I’m considering working with, I look at their likes. To see how many happy customers and people who have used them before. I don’t want to see a number just plucked out of thin air. But are they?
Having set up a Facebook business page for a cake company, Channel 4 then went about finding out how to get into this market of likes. With hundreds of websites offering more likes, therefore more legitimacy for your company, it’s not difficult to get those numbers of likes soaring in no time.
And where do THEY come from? Well, unwitting other Facebook users, that’s who. They interview a lady who has a page for her cooking school, and she comes across some rather naughty page likes (she claims she didn’t click that button herself…) But there was hundreds of pages, and she had no idea they were there. Turns out, these sites are getting them from others without them knowing. Cheeky shits.
So kids, take from this what you will. Maybe check your Facebook page likes from time to time. Although perhaps that Sex Tips page like on your profile, WASN’T a mistake after all… 😉

Short term health insurance is quickly becoming the alternative health plan of choice for individuals and families looking for an affordable option during a temporary life situation, such as being stuck in a 90-day employer waiting period, early retirement, aging off a parents plan, inability to afford COBRA coverage or another life change that leaves them uninsured.
• Coverage up to 364 days in select states
• No doctor network - see any physician or facility
• Doctor and specialist copay options
• Prescription drug coverage
• Flexible deductible, coinsurance and coverage period maximum benefit options
• Next day effective dates offered
• Child(ren) only policies available starting at age 6 months and so much more.
A New Era of Affordable Quality Healthcare Choices are built on an innovative cost-sharing model designed to streamline access to individual and family-focused healthcare without the costs and complexities of most one-size-fits-all traditional medical programs. These are available year round, offering individuals and families a full spectrum of healthcare sharing options at a price they can afford. Cost sharing of member contributions pay for certain eligible healthcare needs, such as hospitalization, surgery and emergency room visits. Healthcare sharing plans are not insurance products. Members agree to and sign a Statement of Beliefs and share the cost of medical expenses in accordance with those beliefs.

Fashion designers across the globe are embracing colour back into their collections with open arms. Gone are the days when Autumn and Winter were victims to dark and gloomy colourways. We are pulling focus to the key colours of the rainbow that were seen colour blocking their way down the runway for forward season Autumn collections.
Ardusse’s Men’s Fall 2021 designer, Gaetano Colucci, drew inspiration from his childhood memories and created a collection filled with wardrobe staples with a twist. There was an unexpected sense of softness to this collection through the 1940s inspired pinstriped suits, pastel cable knits and more notably this khaki green utility-inspired set. Boxy and cropped in fit and lined with a cosy off-white Sherpa, this look showcases the popular yet timeless khaki hue in all its glory, easily matched with the Mara 283 thread. The oversized pockets on the side of the trousers and jacket and the shiny black combat boots make the look structured and edgy. However, this utility-inspired look is softened with the low scoop chunky knitted vest that it's cleverly paired with.
On the Berluti Men’s Fall 2021 runway this year we saw a colourful lineup like no other. This striking blue coat in a shade like the Mara 5396 thread, will make heads turn. Its bright and vibrant hue gives off a sense of calmness and serenity, whilst also being fun and filled with personality. Pair it with some timeless trousers and a statement bucket hat to stay warm without sacrificing style.
As brands embrace the fashion of comfort suiting, designer Avizmo Jo decided to go the other direction by showcasing elegant suits that are still carefree, but effortlessly dressed up for parties and events that are slowly crawling back into the day-to-day norm. This oversized wool coat, in a red hue similar to the Mara 82 thread, shows off a large collar and dropped shoulder. Hitting just below the knee, it's hard to not overlook the intricate knitted multi-coloured flag-like piece at the front and back of this coat. This aspect of the coat is definitely unique and adds a large amount of visual interest and texture to an otherwise simple coat option.
British luxury brand, Dunhill, presents its Fall 2021 collection ‘Compendium’ to reflect a dramatic change in our lives. Designer Mark Weston designs with a sense of ‘Britishness’ in his style. He mixes relaxation and playfulness with traditional and timeless design – reflecting the fashion evolution in places like London. This playful look mixes different textures and colours together, from a caramel oversized puffy scarf to shiny sage green vinyl pants. This violet puffer in a colour similar to the Mara 74 thread is the perfect jacket to throw on to keep warm. It’s practical for cooler months while giving the wearer an instant mood boost due to its bright and uplifting colourway.
We see a sporty collection from Isabel Marant this Fall. The label presented a collection filled with reworked classics like rugby shirts and varsity jackets. In this rich indigo look, we see a relaxed blue cardigan, a lined light-washed denim jacket and vibrant wide-fit track pants similar to the side snap track pants we see on professional basketball players today. For a seamless finish, the Mara 322 thread is perfect for this bright blue hue.
On the Paul Smith runway this season we saw this casual yet fun yellow ensemble. In a shade similar to the Mara 416 thread, the relaxed button-up t-shirt dons a crisp green floral pattern. Layered over a classic black turtleneck and under a boxy leather jacket, the button-up shirt is where we’re focussing our attention. The designer complements the warm yellow tones from the shirt with a pair of mustard trousers and sleek loafers; a fool-proof evening look.
Sacai’s designer, Chitose Abe, looked to the transition from punk to hip-hop for inspiration for her latest Men’s collection. This collection has an obvious streetwear flair to it, mixing two cultural elements together. This particular look is dominated by its loud orange colour palette, ideally paired with the Mara 155 thread, and its interesting cuts. The jacket is pieced together with a water resistant dark green fabric on the shoulders while the rest of the jacket features the blinding orange hue in a highly structured look. Partnered with straight cut trousers that cut off just above the ankles, it finishes off this daring two-piece look perfectly.

Building muscle can be a tough activity. You might even feel discouraged for a time, because there is no quick way to accomplish your weight training goals. It’s important to use the right procedures and apply these techniques for the best results. Read on to learn how to build your muscles.
Building muscle will require you to eat more of a variety of foods. You should increase your diet enough to gain around one pound per week. Investigate ways to raise your caloric intake, and if after two weeks you see no change in your weight, consider taking in even more calories.
Keep your protein intake high to increase muscle mass. Muscles are comprised of protein, so its availability is key to increasing your strength. If your body isn’t properly fueled with protein, then you can’t build muscle mass. Three servings of protein a day will satisfy your body’s requirements.
Rewards for setting and achieving short-term goals are a great way to maintain your focus and motivation. While truly building and maintaining muscle mass is a long-term achievement, motivation is key to staying on course. Why not pick rewards that will help your bodybuilding efforts? As an example, obtaining a massage can not only improve the blood flow to your muscles, it can also aid in recovery on days you take off from working out.
Carbohydrates are key for muscle development. Your body runs on carbs, so they are essential to complete your workouts and do all the other tasks that you must do each day. It is recommended that, if you wish to train hard, that you should have three grams of carbohydrates for each pound that you weigh.
Be sure that you add in as many reps and sets as possible as you workout. Do fifteen lifts at the minimum with a break of a minute or less in between. This stimulates the release of lactic acid, which is a key component in muscle growth. If you do this a couple of times each session, you will see great results.
Try creating an illusion that you are bigger than you actually are. This is accomplished by focusing your attention on developing your upper chest, shoulders and upper back. This makes your waist seem smaller than it really is, which makes it appear that you are larger.
If you are planning to increase your protein consumption because you want to lift weights, do so cautiously. This calorie increase can lead to weight gain if there is not enough exercise. Try gradually increasing your protein about three hundred calories every few days so that your body can start building muscle better.
You must be hydrated to build muscle properly. Unless your body is hydrated at all times, you run a higher risk of injury or muscle damage. Further, staying hydrated will help you gain muscle and keep your muscles solid.
When weight lifting, it is perfectly fine to cheat just a little bit. If you use more of your body to increase the amount of reps, you improve your workout’s effectiveness. However, cheating too much is not advisable. Work hard so that your rep speed is controlled. Don’t compromise your posture and balance.
One issue that crops up for many bodybuilders is that different muscle groups grow unevenly. A fill set can target problem groups. This is a brief set (25-30 reps) of exercises targeting the group in question, performed two or three days after the group was last worked hard.
Consume protein-rich foods, such as meat or dairy, both before and after you work out. An ideal amount of protein is 15 grams 30 minutes before your workout, then the same amount after your workout. This is about the same as one or two cups of milk.
One way to work around muscle groups that are holding you back is “pre-exhausting.” One example of this are your biceps becoming fatigued before lats on a row. Using an exercise that isolates your lats first, a straight-arm pull-down for example, gives your lats a harder workout than your biceps. If you do so, this will make your lats very tired, and our biceps will work right.
Even if you aren’t concerned about adding bulk to your body, it’s still beneficial to work out your muscles. You can boost your self-esteem, strengthen your joints, and improve your lung capacity when you combine muscle-building exercises with light- to moderate-intensity cardio workouts.
Work on improving your bicep curls. When doing biceps curl, you probably are not getting the best benefits because you didn’t move your dumbbell far past your parallel point. The upper half of the bicep curl is the most powerful part. Seated barbell curls will ensure that you fix this problem.
Examine yourself and your current muscle mass to know what you need to work on. You can better understand where you are starting from and set realistic goals for your efforts after making such an examination. In the course of this type of evaluation, composition and body weight are significant things to bear in mind.
It can be difficult to build muscle. If you are confident the techniques you are using are correct, you will not have to worry since positive results will become evident. Use the tips you just read, as well as your prior knowledge about muscle development, to help sculpt your body the way you want it.
The Latest On No-hassle Muscle Building Methods
When on a program to build muscle, remember the importance of carbohydrates. Carbohydrates give your body the energy it needs to get you through your muscle building program. Without a sufficient amount of carbohydrates, your body breaks down protein, and those proteins are needed to build muscle mass. Consume enough carbs so that your body is able to function, and you find that you will have an easier time completing your workouts.

Asked by Marina, Brooklyn
What are my options for a nutritious breakfast? Cereal doesn't feel healthy any more, and neither does a "bacon, egg and cheese." What should I eat to stay healthy and fit ?
Diet and Fitness Expert
Dr. Melina Jampolis
Physician Nutrition Specialist
Hi Marina -- I'm glad you asked this question. There is a lot of confusion about what constitutes a healthy breakfast, one of the most important meals of the day for both weight management and optimal health. I suggest always trying to eat at least one serving of whole grains or fruit along with lean protein. I'm not sure why you think cereal does not feel healthy any more -- perhaps because many cereals are loaded with sugar and fat. But if you choose a cereal that is low in added sugar and low in fat, cereal can be one of the best sources of whole grains and fiber, both of which are important for controlling cholesterol and reducing your risk of diabetes. Add a serving of fat-free milk for protein and you have a balanced breakfast. If you find, as some of my patients, that you get hungry an hour or two after eating cereal, you may want to consider eating a breakfast with slightly more protein such as an egg white omelet (adding vegetables would be even healthier) and whole grain toast with no-sugar-added jam or cholesterol-reducing butter spread. Here are a few more of my patients' favorites:
Can a diabetic safely eat carbs to prep for a marathon?

This is my second set of spring for my GTR. I used to ride with Eibach but the front height is higher than my rear. Swift spring rides perfect. The height is even so my car dont look like a drag race car anymore. lol Anyways. I love this purchase
There was a slight scratch in the clear coat that I had to buff out. All in all a nice piece. I dont think anyone else makes a carbon N54 engine cover. Item reached me in 2 days though, that was impressive.
The fitment & quality isn't that great but it's acceptable overall. Good service people.
Got the duraflex hood for my Corvette, I like it. Good seller
DeltaRomeo - (Bristol, CT)
It only took a few days for the lights to arrive, a few minutes to install, and a split second to turn night into day. Very pleased.
drew - (San Francisco,califo)
great coils, ive had mine on full stiffness since ive bought them which was about 8 months ago and there still solid, highly recommend these

Be aware that disc herniation could also mask the joint problem, I mean the problem could be not the disc
but the joint !!
Always look in the past for
a small (or big) cause like a trauma, car accident !, because when really no cause is found we should do many investigations in the direction of Rheumatology.
Gabapentin and Pergabalin always help, but do we really need them ? is this a neural pain ?
Cortisol (steroids) are effective in joint pathology ?

Are there color variations in Laboratory grown diamonds?
Diamonds are generally thought of as being colorless and translucent.
But did you know that there are actually many hues of diamonds?
The very rare natural colored diamonds
In addition to colorless diamonds, those with color are called "fancy color diamonds".
Furthermore, they are classified into 2 types: "natural diamonds" in which color occurs naturally, and "treatment diamonds" to which colors are applied via a process.
It is said that fancy color natural diamonds exist in almost all colors. The overwhelming majority of them are brown and yellow. These are followed by pink and blue. Red and purple are very rare.Black is recently gaining popularity, and grey and milk white also exist.
The reason natural color diamonds exist is different for each color, and there is still much that is unknown. The main reasons are substances other than carbon being caught in the crystallization of carbon in the ground, or a deficient arrangement of carbon atoms, causing colors to be seen. Among the natural diamonds which have been cut throughout history, fancy color diamonds only make up approximately a mere 1/10,000 carat. Those with stronger colors are said to account for only about 1/25,000 carats.
Laboratory grown diamonds are able to produce various colors
The total amount is extremely small, and especially those which are large and have darker colors are very hard to obtain, but Laboratory grown diamonds (synthetic diamonds; hereinafter abbreviated) can also now produce colors as a result of many years of research.
For example, by adding small amounts of iodine and boron, etc. to the equipment which creates Laboratory grown diamonds, it is possible to create yellow, pink, and blue diamonds as desired. Each of them has different tones and shades even of the same color.
It is also possible to create large color diamonds
Furthermore, research is also advancing to create new colors which do not exist in natural diamonds.
Color diamonds let you enjoy both the unique charm of diamonds and beautiful colors at the same time. Their abundantly unique radiance gives us even more hope for the possibilities of Laboratory grown diamonds.

Among Mormon History nerds, “Camelot” refers to the period of time in the 1970s and early 1980s when Leonard Arrington served as Church Historian. It is traditional to look back on it as a Golden Age that was tragically lost. To be sure, Arrington’s tenure as Church Historian was a heady period of open access to sources, institutional support for Mormon historians, and daring young-turk researchers producing thrilling task papers on subjects like “Andrew Kimball and the Indian Territory Mission” and “The Mutual Improvement Association : a preliminary history, 1900-1950.” The end of Camelot, according to the traditional story of events, was the beginning of the dark ages in Mormon studies. Arrington and his knights of the round table were sent packing to the Joseph Fielding Smith Institute at BYU, and access to the archives was severely cut back.
There is some real truth to the traditional story of “Camelot” and its fall had a certain tragic element. I wish that researchers had more access to materials in the Church Archives. (Although truth be known, there is much more access today than many a pessimistic dabbler in Mormon history assumes.) Still, at the end of the day, I think that killing off Camelot was a good idea. The problem comes precisely because with the increasing sophistication of the work of Arrington and others, the Church qua Church would have been required to take positions on particular issues of scholarly interpretation. Yet it seems to me that this is precisely what we don’t want. I really don’t want an official Church interpretation of Mountain Meadows, or — on a more pedestrian level — the relative merits of economic or ideological explanations for the failure of this or that 19th century Mormon communitarian endeavor. To be sure, one can work for the Church without producing history that is in some sense “official.” And it is nice that the Church puts resources behind the study of Mormon history — like building the new Church History Library or supporting the perennially delayed Joseph Smith Papers Project. I am not against involving the Church institutionally at some level in Mormon studies. On the other hand, the idea that the best and the brightest Mormon historians ought to be having their arguments within the confines of the Church Office Building strikes me as a bad idea.

Can you believe the Super Bowl is tomorrow!? Yep, tomorrow is the day that the two Doritos commercial contest winners are announced. This will happen during the game sometime when they air the winning commercials. Unfortunately, it won’t be one of our commercials because we didn’t make it into the finals. I’m not really surprised. There was some tough competition this year and there were plenty of commercials that were even better than ours that didn’t make it into the finals.
Overall, I would say we were in the top 20% of the commercials in terms of production value and story; although much of the story ended up getting cut because of time constraints and I think that really hurt us. I really wish that we could have, at the very least, made it into the finals (and won $25,000) so that we could have paid everyone involved in the project. This was an all-volunteer project. Nobody got paid…from cast to crew. Everyone took a chance with this project and it is greatly appreciated. We couldn’t have done it without their combined talent.
Now I know I said that I would be talking more about the making of the commercial, and I will. But because producing the commercial took me off my I-Man cast feature film project for several months, I felt it was more important to put my focus back on writing the treatment to get that project moving again. Naturally, if we had actually gotten into the finals, I would have put my time and energy into promoting the heck out of the commercial and trying to get as many votes as we could so that we could win. But since that didn’t happen, I switched priorities.
To all of you who have been supporting us in this contest, I want to give a big thank you. It was because of you giving us five-star ratings that we were able to actually make third place in the popularity ratings for a short time! It didn’t last long, of course, because everyone else was trying to get their ratings up too and they overtook us. But it did get our commercial some attention; and that was one of my goals during that phase of the contest.
If you’ve been following the contest, you know that Doritos had a Nacho Awards contest earlier. There were eight different categories and our commercial didn’t really fit any of them so we weren’t chosen to compete. To watch the winners, go to the Doritos Facebook app and click Nachos on the “Sort By” drop down menu.
The following video is of Ali Landry introducing the five finalists, giving us some behind-the-scenes tidbits, and explaining how the contest works.
Tomorrow we find out who the two winners are! Which commercials are you rooting for?

This absolutely exquisite napkin ring has an extraordinary amount of detailing! On one side there is a standing Bulldog, done so realistically, that you can see the folds of skin on his neck, and his furrowed brow! He is standing on an oval-shaped table that has four claw-footed legs and gorgeous scrollwork on both the table top and on its very ornate sides. Next to the Bulldog is a beautiful napkin ring with a leafy “ruffled” edge and large roses down the middle. The entire piece measures 2 1/2″ tall x 2 1/4″ wide x 1 3/4″ long and it is great condition with some minor scratches on the underside of the table base, and a small knick on the top inside of the napkin ring itself. Overall, this napkin ring is an amazing example of the figural napkin rings that graced the tables of Victorian families during the early 1900’s.

Root Cause Deconvolution (RCD), a statistical enhancement technology recently made available in Mentor Graphics’ Tessent Diagnosis and YieldInsight products, is the next step in diagnosis resolution enhancement. It works by analyzing multiple layout-aware diagnosis reports together to identify the underlying defect distribution (root cause distribution) that is most likely to explain this set of diagnosis results. The results are then back- annotated to the individual diagnosis suspects.

All I had to do was pick out what flavor combination I wanted then just prepare the cake and fillings. The possibilities are endless. I can't wait to try my next one. Trifle is an elegant looking dessert that takes a minimum of effort with maximum flavor and can be served at any occasion.
Here's what you need:
1 box devils food or chocolate cake mix, plus the fixings to make the cake (I used Pillsbury)
1 small box (3.9 oz.) instant chocolate pudding
2 cups cold milk (I used 2%, but whole would be fine too)
1 cup seedless raspberry jam, heated and liquid
1 - 8 or 16 oz. tub of Cool Whip, depending on how much you want to use. I used about 2/3 of the 16 oz.
Bake the cake according to the package directions and let cool completely. Cut into 1-1/2 inch cubes.
Prepare the pudding according to the package about 10 minutes before starting to layer the trifle.
Place the raspberry jam into a microwave safe bowl and heat in 30 second increments until it is liquid.
You will be making a total of three layers.
In the bottom of a trifle bowl or a large glass bowl start your layering. One layer of chocolate cake cubes, and squish them in so the bottom is mostly covered. Next spoon on 1/3 of the jam.
Next add 1/3 of the chocolate pudding then 1/3 of the Cool Whip.
Repeat the layers two more times.
Chill for at least 3 hours before serving. Dish up and enjoy!
Serves - a lot

What Is the What
New York Times Notable Book
New York Times Bestseller
What Is the What is the epic novel based on the life of Valentino Achak Deng who, along with thousands of other children —the so-called Lost Boys—was forced to leave his village in Sudan at the age of seven and trek hundreds of miles by foot, pursued by militias, government bombers, and wild animals, crossing the deserts of three countries to find freedom. When he finally is resettled in the United States, he finds a life full of promise, but also heartache and myriad new challenges. Moving, suspenseful, and unexpectedly funny, What Is the What is an astonishing novel that illuminates the lives of millions through one extraordinary man.
Baker & Taylor
A biographical novel traces the story of Valentino Achak Deng, who as a boy was separated from his family when his village in southern Sudan was attacked, and became one of the estimated 17,000 "lost boys of Sudan" before relocating from a Kenyan refugee camp to Atlanta in 2001.
A winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award traces the story of two child Sudanese civil war refugees and their witness to the devastation that has torn their homeland, a time during which one struggles to understand what is happening and the other joins the rebel army. Reprint. 150,000 first printing.
the autobiography of Valentino Achak Deng : a novel
From the critics
From Library Staff
Based on the real life story of Valentino Achak Deng, a Sudanese refugee and member of the Lost Boys of Sudan program.
AgeAdd Age Suitability
SummaryAdd a Summary
Based on extensive interviews with Valentino Achak Deng and closely following actual events, this novel by Dave Eggers tells Deng's story with extreme passion and startling honesty. Beginning with the destruction of his home village as a young child and harrowing walk across the war-torn wilderness of southern Sudan with a group of children known as the Lost Boys, to life in refugee camps in Ethiopia and Kenya and the frustration of attending community college in the United States while holding a job which pays little, Deng provides provides a voice for the social underdog. It is with a tone of frustration and cynicism, but not self-pity, that he describes the plight of Sudanese survivors in America, "We refugees can be celebrated one day, helped and lifted up, and then utterly ignored by all when we prove to be a nuisance. When we find trouble here, it is invariably our own fault."
Deng's search for "the What" is compelling, riveting, and provides not only a glimpse of the evil of civil war in the Sudan, but also a unique perspective into our own society.

"... Now that you are here, on the most sacred and fertile land I have, I can give you one more thing. I can give you this creature, which is called the cow..." God showed man the idea of the cattle, and the cattle were magnificent. They were in every way what the monyjang would want. The man and woman thanked God for such a gift, because they knew that the cattle would bring them milk and meat and prosperity of every kind. But God was not finished. God said," You can have these cattle, as my gift to you, or you can have the What."
..."What is the What?" the first man asked. And God said to the man, "I cannot tell you. Still you have to choose. You have to choose between the cattle and the What?"

Created in 1967 and originally known simply because the Bandwagon, this popular soul group contains four former single singers who made a decision to pool their resources. John Johnson (b. Florida, USA), Terry Lewis (b. Baltimore, Ohio, USA), Arthur Fullilove (b. NEW YORK, USA) and Billy Bradley (b. Rochester, NY, USA) had popular making use of their debut UK launch when ‘Breaking Down The Wall space Of Heartache’ reached #4 4 in Oct 1968. This pulsating dance music was the quartet’s biggest strike, but 2 yrs later they liked further achievement with Tony Macaulay’s ‘Lovely Motivation’ and ‘(Blame It) WITHIN THE Pony Express’, both which reached the united kingdom Top 10. The group was latterly located in Britain where, unlike in the us, that they had been well received. Johnson assumed management as original people dropped out, before billing eventually examine ‘Johnny Johnson And His Bandwagon’. Nevertheless the vocalist’s frenetic vocal design proved inflexible so when the music group’s recordings grew significantly predictable, therefore their commercial achievement waned.

Marcus Smart is the most disliked Celtic and that's a compliment
Back in the Kevin Garnett Era, it was well known that players and fans around the league were not privy to KG's antics on the court. The floor slapping, chest pounding, constant snarling and growling grew old on hoop junkies outside of Boston. But we as residents of Beantown ate it up like a bowl of clam chowda.
Today, this current core of C's are a likable bunch. A group of blue-collar ballers, some of which were castoffs under previous employers, who fight and scarp every night for respect and more importantly points and defensive stops. But with every team there are a few guys that the opposing players can't stand. According to Jae Crowder that guy for the Celtics is, of course, Marcus Smart:
Crowder was informed that he, Smart are competing to be most disliked Celtic: "I think Marcus edges me a little bit. Guys don’t like Marcus"
You have to appreciate Crowder's remarks. As someone who roots for a particular team, you want a guy like Smart on your side. Hell give me five Marcus Smarts and I will be happy (Okay, hopefully one of the Smart clones could shoot a higher percentage).
C's analyst Brain Scalabrine has nicknamed Smart the cobra, and has mentioned numerous times how he would hate to be an official when the second-year Celts point guard is on the court. The aggressive defense, diving for loose balls, and yes the flopping can test any official, opposing player or fans' patience. Even that hairstyle can annoy some people.
All this is a factor in why the people of Boston admire Smart's game. He is the closest thing to KG we have seen in a while, especially when it comes to the defensive side of the floor, and he seemingly gets under the other teams skin worse and worse as the season drags on:
Never change Marcus, never change.

MY 2013 Nissan Altima's AC stop cooling. When I checked the Suction pressure on the compressor's low pressure side, it showed 100psi with the clutch engaged and the compressor running. When I disengaged the clutch the suction pressure started equalizing to over 150 psi. Engaging the clutch brought down the suction pressure back to 100psi. There is no obvious noise while AC compressor running with or without clutch engaged. Apparently not low on Freon. Bad Compressor or What?
Your system would not allow me to ask my question unless I checked the box "My question is not car-specific" even though I checked NISSAN 2013 ALTIMA as required, Read message appeared stating I need to name my vehicle.
My car has 72000 miles.

Many couples tend to confuse intimacy with sexual activities in their relationship. What they don’t know, however, is that true intimacy comes in many forms, all of which have to do with building trust and enhancing closeness between partners.
Being in a relationship comes with a myriad of struggles, including everything from emotional withdrawal and silent treatment to engulfment and control. For many people, dealing with issues in their personal relationships can take a great toll on their mental health and decrease the overall quality of their lives. That’s why building intimacy with your partner is a must if you want you and your partner to be happy and your relationship to last.
In this blog post, we’ll tell you all about the meaning of intimacy and how to improve intimacy in a relationship.
What Is Intimacy In A Relationship?
What does true intimacy mean? Well, by definition, intimacy involves feelings of closeness, vulnerability, and openness between partners in a relationship. While intimate relationships typically include physical acts of love, they don’t necessarily have to be sexual.
A sexual relationship may or may not include emotional intimacy between two partners. This is why we may have one-night stands and other sexual acts that don’t involve intimacy and love.
What Are The Four Types Of Intimacy?
Intimacy manifests itself in many ways. A healthy relationship would include and nourish each of the following types of intimacy:
- Emotional intimacy means that you are able to share your deepest thoughts and feelings with your partner and don’t fear being vulnerable around them. Nourishing this form of intimacy is essential for maintaining a healthy relationship.
- Physical intimacy entails acts of affection between two partners. While this type of intimacy does involve sexual activities, it isn’t the same as sexual intimacy. It also involves everything from kissing and hugging to holding hands with your partner.
- Intellectual intimacy includes sharing thoughts, ideas, and feelings with your partner. For instance, talking about your interests and favorite music will help you deepen the intellectual or cognitive intimacy with your partner.
- Experiential intimacy means sharing experiences with your partner, whether it’s traveling together, taking a walk, going to the movies, or any other activity that can bring you closer together.
How Do You Rebuild Intimacy In A Relationship?
Building intimacy in a relationship is crucial if you want to have a mature and lasting bond with your partner. Here are some tips for restoring the feelings of intimacy in your relationship.
Talk Things Through
If you no longer feel connected to your partner, you should first try to determine the underlying struggles that may have caused your emotional intimacy issues and have an honest conversation about them. Just make sure to be completely honest and attentive to what your partner has to say – healthy communication in a relationship is a must if you want it to work.
Instead of spending your evenings on your phone while your partner is on a computer, try engaging in activities you both get to enjoy. For instance, going on a weekend trip or simply seeing a movie together will help build a stronger bond and bring you closer together.
Work On Physical Intimacy Too
While emotional intimacy should definitely be your starting point, it’s important that you don’t neglect the physical aspect of the relationship. Sexual activities and other physical acts of love, such as cuddling and hugging, can greatly improve your mood and help you reconnect with your partner.
Give It Time
You can’t rebuild intimacy overnight, especially if you’re trying to repair a relationship after a crisis or infidelity. If you are patient with your partner and communicate openly with them, you will manage to rebuild trust and deepen the connection over time.
What Are Some Good Relationship-Building Activities For Couples?
No relationship can work without effort from both parties. If you and your partner need help maintaining intimacy, experts recommend the following healthy relationship workshop activities for strengthening the bond with your partner:
- Extend cuddle time: many couples get so lost in their busy lives that they forget to cuddle. Cuddling a couple of times per week can do wonders for deepening the connection with your partner.
- Allow your partner to vent: a great exercise for enhancing intimacy is to have uninterrupted listening sessions. This means that you should set a timer, let your partner speak and simply listen to what they have to say, without judgment and defensiveness.
- Play the 5 things game: this simple but versatile exercise is both fun and effective. It involves you and your partner taking turns to state five things on a certain topic, such as “what are the five things you’d like to change in your life”, or anything along those lines.
- Engage in soul gazing: Sit face to face with your partner with your knees almost touching. Try to maintain eye contact and say nothing for around 3-5 minutes. You can make the exercise easier by playing a song and trying soul gaze while it lasts.
- Have weekly meetings: Many relationship struggles arise from a lack of communication between partners. By having conversations without distractions every week, you can get insight into your partner’s thoughts and avoid communication errors.
It’s important to note that you shouldn’t expect immediate change if you do these exercises a couple of times and then go back to your old ways. Rebuilding a relationship takes time, especially if you’re dealing with issues like dealing with codependency in a relationship or struggling with love addiction.
That is why couples can greatly benefit from relationship coaching or attending intensive workshops aided by seasoned professionals who can help them rekindle intimacy in a healthy way.
Rebuild Your Bond With Modern Relationship Intimacy Coaching
Sometimes, a relationship can keep going downhill no matter how hard you try to maintain a healthy connection. This often happens because couples simply don’t have the time to focus on actively working on their relationship with all the distractions they have to deal with in their everyday lives. Because of this, many couples find that relationship coaching can be highly beneficial for enhancing intimacy and building lasting bonds between them.
With PIVOT, you can transform your relationship swiftly and effectively with the help of our seasoned PIVOT Advocates. In addition to our relationship coaching programs, we also offer customized couples retreats at The Glass House where you can work on your relationship with complete focus and bring about immediate change.

Guidelines for Reporting Health Research is a practical guide to choosing and correctly applying the appropriate guidelines when reporting health research to ensure clear, transparent, and useful reports.
This new title begins with an introduction to reporting guidelines and an overview of the importance of transparent reporting, the characteristics of good guidelines, and how to use reporting guidelines effectively in reporting health research. This hands-on manual also describes over a dozen internationally recognised published guidelines such as CONSORT, STROBE, PRISMA and STARD in a clear and easy to understand format. It aims to help researchers choose and use the correct guidelines for reporting their research, and to produce more completely and transparently reported papers which will help to ensure reports are more useful and are not misleading.
Written by the authors of health research reporting guidelines, in association with the EQUATOR (Enhancing the QUAlity and Transparency Of health Research) Network, Guidelines for Reporting Health Research is a helpful guide to producing publishable research. It will be a valuable resource for researchers in their role as authors and also an important reference for editors and peer reviewers.

We understand that the main service we provide – electricity – can pose a danger if not properly used. Therefore, we provide information to the public regarding the safe use of electricity and how to work safely near power lines.
To educate the public, FPL launched a safety program more than 10 years ago to alert businesses and their employees about the dangers of working near power lines. The program features six key safety rules and includes U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations listing minimum safe approach distances from power lines for workers and equipment. Safety 6 is part of FPL's numerous safety initiatives under its ZERO Today! program.

A new partnership between the UN and Vietnam will see storm proof houses built in vulnerable coastal communities.
The 29.5 million housing scheme will be funded by the UN Green Climate Fund and aims to increase the resilience of Vietnamese coastal communities to the effects of climate change.
The project will target the poorest households and priority will be given to ethnic minorities, disadvantaged families, the elderly and people with disabilities.
The project also includes the regeneration of mangrove forests in coastal areas, as these offer protection from storms.
Germanwatch’s most recent annual Climate Risk Index revealed that Vietnam is one of ten countries most at risk from climate change.
The coastal areas of Vietnam are particularly vulnerable as storms in the country are predicted to increase in frequency and intensity. In 2017 Vietnam experienced over 15 typhoons.
Coastal communities in Vietnam are often the poorest too, the increase in storms risks trapping these regions in poverty as they accumulate debt or spend savings to rebuild or repair their homes, businesses and possessions.
Jenty Kirsch-Wood, a senior technical advisor at the UN Development Programme (UNDP) commented:
“There is a really strong link between poverty and being able to accumulate assets, and housing is one of the major assets”
“If we can get some these highly vulnerable people into safe houses, it not only protects their lives, but also their assets and small businesses.”
The UNDP and the government of Vietnam aim to build 300 houses by the end of 2018 and 4,000 by 2022.
The project will construct two-room houses based on simple design to create a stronger structure. Features will include a mezzanine level to protect against flooding, reinforced roofing and the use of strong cement.
The homes cost approximately $1,700 to construct; so far 37 have been built in Quang Ngai Province.
The UNDP hopes the low cost, storm proof designs will be constructed across the country as people hear of their success.

Bayes’ Theorem, error and bias
What is the effect of using Bayes’ Theorem to combine multiple pieces of evidence, given the presence of error and bias in estimating the probabilities of evidence? Will the error grow or decrease as we add more evidence?
Tim Hendrix has claimed1 that Richard Carrier’s use of Bayes Theorem will cause errors in Carrier’s estimates to inflate. I find this counter-intuitive, because I believe Bayes’ Theorem is frequently used specifically to counter uncertainty in any of the individual parameters, giving us a best estimate of the overall probability. This, I believe, should counter uncertainty regardless of whether the cause is in the evidence itself, that is, we have some evidence that points in the wrong direction, or in our imperfect ability to estimate what a certain piece of evidence means.
The inputs are as follows:
P(ei|A): The probability that evidence ei would be observed if hypothesis A is correct.
P(ei|B): The probability that evidence ei would be observed if hypothesis B is correct.
Bayes’ Theorem also uses a prior probability, which is our prior estimate that hypothesis A is correct. In this case, I will use 0.5 for the prior, which means that we have no relevant information other than that contained in the evidence. Apart from this, we believe A and B to be equally likely.
The resulting formula as used by Carrier is 2:
P(A|e) = [ 0.5 * ∏ P(ei|A) ] / [ 0.5 * ∏ P(ei|A) + (1-0.5) * ∏ P(ei|B) ]
To find out what the effects of error are, I simulated a large number of cases. In each case, I varied the number of pieces of evidence from 1 to 50. I assumed that the correct estimate of P(ei|A) was always 0.6, while the correct estimate of P(ei|B) was always 0.75. That is, all evidence is in reality likely on hypothesis A, but still somewhat more likely on B. I chose these conditions so as to create a very tricky situation, where even modest errors or bias can lead us to the wrong conclusion.
For the first experiment, I added a standard error of 0.1 and no bias. Below is the graph of the resulting probability of A given perfect estimates, the average resulting probability given imperfect estimates, and the standard deviation.
As we can see, when we add more pieces of evidence, the result using imperfect estimates gets closer and closer to the ideal.
For the second experiment, I also added a bias of 0.05 in favour of A and -0.05 against B.
The presence of bias changes nothing fundamentally about the results. As we can see very clearly in this graph, the standard deviation first increases because the ideally computed probability approaches zero faster than when we add flaws to our estimates.
The conclusion from the experiment is that Bayes’ Theorem, as used by Carrier, appears to reduce rather than inflate errors.
This obviously does not mean that Carrier’s conclusions are correct. If his errors and bias are sufficiently large, he will reach the wrong conclusions. That is true regardless of any method he uses. However, I cannot think of a method that would give a better result in this case. For instance, one alternative would be to use only the ‘best’ single piece of evidence. This would translate to using the piece of evidence that according to our imperfect estimate would result in the clearest outcome. It is obvious that this would lead to much worse results. In part because, as we see, adding more evidence brings us closer to the correct conclusion. But also because our error and bias may easily lead us to choose the wrong ‘best’ piece of evidence.

Managing the data needs within accountable care organizations (ACOs) is anything but business as usual. First, many of the quality and performance measures required by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) are more holistic quality-outcome measures, and are therefore relatively new concepts for hospitals and physician groups. Second, the data and information exchange requirements to effectively manage risk and quality outcomes within an ACO are extremely complex.
Success in the ACO environment requires the ability to influence a wide range of metrics to right-size utilization, mitigate care gaps and enhance care coordination. Unless participating providers are able to assess and act upon data in real time, they will not be able drive the quality and cost improvements necessary to maximize reimbursements and share in cost savings.
Thus, the data management challenge for ACOs is two-fold: 1) gathering information from multiple sources and converting it into role-based, actionable data and 2) creating a technical infrastructure that enables rapid data analysis and information exchange with providers to effectuate needed interventions.
ACOs are plan-like entities operating in a fee-for-service (FFS) system. Their success or failure hinges upon the ability to drive down costs and improve quality. This can only happen by bringing together clinical and administrative data - including enrollment, eligibility, demographic and claims data on assigned beneficiaries - from multiple disparate sources to create comprehensive, sharable and actionable clinical histories for each patient.
A first step is closing providers' knowledge gaps when it comes to the outcome-centric measures (usually tied to health plan performance) CMS will use to determine the ACOs effectiveness, such as National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) measures. In particular, ACOs must convey to participating providers how this data can be leveraged to influence performance outcomes and quality scores in real-time through continuous monitoring for and remediation of care gaps.
To drive appropriate outcomes, ACOs must also leverage advanced business intelligence to ensure participants utilize clinical and administrative data in ways that ultimately improve care coordination and utilization. For example, proactive patient assessments identify high-risk individuals or those with multiple comorbidities or chronic conditions so chronic care and preventative health needs can be properly addressed. More efficient and effective interventions can be enabled through proactive case, care and disease management, while patient safety and utilization management can be improved through comprehensive medication reconciliation and drug monitoring.
An Integrated Architecture
Just as ensuring that ACO participants have access to needed clinical and administrative data requires an innovative and integrated approach, so too does addressing the technical barriers preventing that access. A traditional approach to constructing a technical infrastructure capable of addressing an ACO's complex data requirements carries costs that are prohibitively high for many healthcare organizations. Other technical challenges include the lack of interoperability among the multiple legacy systems in use by the various participating organizations as well as establishing the required connections with CMS.
It's important to note that this infrastructure will require a much broader reach than simply deploying an electronic medical record (EMR) system. While EMRs are critical components and should be integrated as part of the greater technology strategy, they will not provide the information-sharing capabilities needed for comprehensive data analysis. An ACO will essentially need to operate as a health information exchange (HIE) where clinical, financial and utilization data meet to address care gaps and improve the efficiencies and quality of care delivery.
By deploying integrated care management, quality and compliance software platforms, ACOs are able to efficiently and affordably eliminate the majority of the technical barriers. These platforms leverage open standards to eliminate interoperability issues, thereby facilitating secure connections and real-time information exchange regardless of existing legacy systems. In addition to keeping upfront and ongoing costs low, this flexibility allows for deployment in weeks rather than the months (sometimes years) required for traditional deployment.
Web-based integrated platforms, which allow provider access and management, also allow ACOs to custom-configure functionality and deploy tools that target metrics which have the greatest impact on quality scores based on populations served. These should ideally include predictive modeling and stratification tools, as well as tools to identify HEDIS, Star and other care gaps and trigger appropriate interventions. Other desirable features include the ability to generate member, provider and local population profiles, risk score calculators and case/disease management modules that enable assessments, care plan creation and real-time monitoring and fulfillment of clinical and social interventions.
Innovation & Integration
The data needs of ACOs are complex. From the technical challenges of collecting and exchanging data from multiple systems across multiple organizations to the knowledge gaps encountered when providers begin utilizing outcome-centric data to drive care decisions, ACO planners are quickly discovering that a traditional approach creates more barriers than it resolves.
By leveraging integrated care management, quality and compliance platforms, ACOs are able to cost-effectively establish the connections necessary to share the complex data necessary to track quality and performance measures and influence clinical outcomes. They drive systemic improvements by establishing a clear understanding of quality and utilization metrics, individual performance in relation to those metrics and the relationship between quality outcomes and financial rewards.
An integrated and innovative approach to care management, quality and compliance helps ACOs ensure that participants have access to the information they need to better manage patient populations. This, in turn, enables the ACO to achieve the cost and quality outcomes necessary to participate in shared savings.

7 a.m. is not exactly rock n roll time, even for a tween act like the Jonas Brothers. But that didn’t stop Live Nation from putting on a JoBros show in the early a.m. to help promote their new “No Ticket Fees in June 2010″ promotion. 1000 lucky fans got to see a free concert by the Jonas Brothers and all they had to do was wait in line.
The band were in fine form just like the other two times I have seen them. They’re probably up at that hour anyways. Seriously though, the band played a short set of four songs and then were joined on stage by Jason Garner, Live Nation’s CEO of Global Music, to help explain the company’s new ticket promotion. After he left the stage, the band ran through their latest single “L.A. Baby.” And just like that, everyone left the venue and went about the rest of their day. Honestly, despite having to get up at an ungodly hour, it was a great way to start they day. I had all my photos edited and filed by 8:30 a.m.
At first we were told that we would have to shoot this gig from the soundboard so I rented a 300mm/2.8 because I wasn’t sure that my 70-200 would be long enough. As it turned out we were allowed to shoot from anywhere we wanted but since the seats in the back were empty, I decided to shoot the gig from the back of the venue in order to get my money’s worth from my rented lens and to also get the crowd in my shots. It was an unusual vantage point to shoot from and I was very pleased with the results.
Be sure to read Monica Hesse’s recap of the show over on Washingtonpost.com and also click through to the photo slideshow featuring some of my photos. And check out the full photo set below:

Kim Kardashian inspired by Jennifer Lopez
Kim Kardashian has been inspired to diet by Jennifer Lopez.
The 35-year-old beauty recently reached her goal weight of 120lbs after giving birth to son Saint last December but she now wants to shed even more pounds after helping to celebrate the singer's 47th birthday in Las Vegas over the weekend.
Writing on Instagram, the 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star said: I know I'm a little late but Happy Birthday to my girl @jlo We had the best time in Vegas celebrating your birthday & after seeing your show I started my diet again LOL I've never met anyone who ages backwards! So beautiful inside & out! Forever my inspiration! (sic)."
Kim - who also has three-year-old daughter North with husband Kanye West - recently embarked on a strict exercise and diet regime in a bid to lose 70lbs.
And last week she revealed: "I'm definitely to my goal weight. I'm down more than I expected."
Kim followed the low-carb Atkins diet and said she found it very easy.
She revealed: "I think if you just really stay motivated and focused, the Atkins diet was so easy for me because there's so many sweets and treats that keep you satisfied along the way."
Speaking about her exercise regime, she added: My sisters are really into working out right now,. So when you have a good support system and you all want to just get it together... Kanye is super into working out. It just makes it easy."

Hey JaMoTo +1.
I was listening to episode 888 and I was wondering why everyone is drooling over the Palm Pre. Didn’t we do the same thing when the Blackberry Storm was announced? We gave it so much praise until the time came for release. It was a failure. Are we certain this will be Palm’s savior or will the hype rise above what will really happen? Will the Pre truly be the device that brings Palm back or will it be lost and forgotten just as the Storm was?

Hey BOL team just wanted to pop in let you guys know orange julius has a brand spankin new drink called the blackberry storm haha included is a pic i took of the ad and a link to the nutrition facts on the 2nd page of the pdf 3rd flavor down of the blackberry storm. I wonder which is slower trying to use the BB storm’s accelerometer feature or trying to get the drink through a straw? haha keep up the good work love the show! Jason Trambley
Listening to episode 886. You guys were alking about the sling player
app for iPhone and whether Apple might accept it into the App Store
because it’ll steam video over 3g. I recently started using Orb Live
from the app store. This app works with the Orb client on your pc with
tv tuner at home and you can then stream your tv and any other media
to the iPhone app. Works well. Video quality is good enough over 3g.
So, there’s precedent for it. Hope I’m not jinxing anything by
bringing attention to Orb. Love the show!

These mobile applications are convenient ways to gamble from the comfort of home, and are a key driver of segment growth. Several jurisdictions have legalized lottery games, including New Jersey, New York, California, and Massachusetts. Despite the fact that they are still a form of gambling, online lottery games can be lucrative opportunities for Bitcoin users. This article will discuss the various aspects of online lottery gaming.

While casting lots has a long history in human history and the Bible, lotteries for material gain are a relatively recent development. The first recorded public lottery in the West was held during the reign of Augustus Caesar in Rome to fund municipal repairs. In Bruges, Belgium, the first lottery to distribute prize money took place in 1466. The lottery was a fundraiser for the city’s poor. Today, lottery games are offered on websites and mobile apps.
They offer a chance to win a large jackpot
A lottery is a form of gambling where a random number is generated and players have the chance to win cash or goods. While the winning amount varies from one lottery to the next, the most popular types of lotteries offer big jackpots and require only a small investment. In 2011, the Department of Justice rescinded its ruling regarding lotteries as illegal gambling. While the federal government does not consider purchasing lottery tickets illegal, states can regulate the activity.
They accept Bitcoin transactions
The good news is that online lottery platforms are now accepting Bitcoin transactions. Many of these lottery sites offer a digital wallet where you can deposit and exchange cryptocurrencies directly from their website. In addition, some of these lottery websites use smart contracts to make the transactions more transparent and easier to track. If you’re looking for a Bitcoin lottery site, here are a few good options:
They’re available in many jurisdictions
Many states and jurisdictions have legalized online lottery play. You can play online with the help of an authorized lottery agent, who will buy the lottery tickets on your behalf and send you a confirmation email when the purchase is complete. You can choose the number of your ticket or let the agent pick it for you. This is similar to purchasing tickets in person. In some jurisdictions, you can also subscribe to lottery subscription services.
The National Lottery will most likely use an age verification solution to comply with the new rules. Operators of online lottery affiliates will also have to adjust their marketing strategies to the new age requirements. AgeChecked, a provider of age verification solutions for online lottery affiliates, will help affiliates prepare for the new age requirements and provide early warning. We’ve compiled a list of hints and resources to help affiliates prepare.
Online lottery websites usually provide a variety of payment methods. In addition to credit cards, players can also use e-wallets and other forms of electronic money. While these methods offer a wide range of security features, the most important thing to consider is the speed of withdrawals and processing times. E-wallets have many advantages over traditional payment methods, including streamlined withdrawal processes. PayPal and Skrill are two popular payment methods for online lottery sites in New Zealand.

Windmill Dental is an organisation of Dentists located in Amarillo Texas. We’ve happily provided our services to the local Amarillo neighborhood for many years and look forward to a lengthy and thriving partnership in the foreseeable future.
Dental practitioners are specialists in oral healthcare, prevent future illness, and identify and treat existing oral health issue. They are the most certified to create the best dental care plans for their patients.
With their education, experience, and advanced credentials, dental experts have a responsibility to help individuals produce a healthy mouth that will last a lifetime. Dental experts require to combine the current knowledge from the dental field with contemporary innovation and products.

There are a number of aspects to think about when choosing a dentist, including their training and experience, area, and the times they provide.
If you likewise asked buddies or household for recommendations, it would assist.
Since there are so lots of choices offered in the area, picking a dental expert can be difficult.
Here is a list of some questions you might wish to ask:
– What types of treatments do they specialize in?
– Do they have emergency hours?
– Do they take insurance coverage?
– What is their cancellation policy?
DDS is a Doctor of Dental Surgery, and they receive substantial training in the field of maxillofacial and oral surgical treatment.
A DMD is a Doctor of Dental Medicine. They study for 4 years, finishing with their Doctorate level and after that finishing at least two years of residency training to become a general dental practitioner.
The difference between the two fields mainly comes down to qualifications and expertises: dental surgeons total four extra years of training to go into the field, including a maxillofacial and oral surgical element; dentists generally do not have any other training in dental surgery.
Dental experts are professionals who are qualified to provide oral care to clients. They carry out preventive, diagnostic, psychosocial and surgical steps to improve the oral health of patients.
Dental practitioners take a look at patients’ teeth and gums for any injury, infection or other issues. They likewise advise on keeping the tooth healthy and handling discomfort or fear of dental treatment.

Humanities Intensive Learning + Teaching, Day 1, Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities, #hilt2014Posted: August 6, 2014
I’m attending the Humanities Intensive Learning + Teaching courses at Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities, #hilt2014, for the second year running. Last year was Matt Jocker’s excellent course on R and this year I’m attending Elijah Meek’s course on Network Analysis and Visualisation. The first day we covered network basics and why you might want to actually carry out visualisation across graphs – and what the hell are graphs anyway?
Graphs, put simply, are a collection of things and connections between those things. Now that I’ve killed every mathematician reading this blog, let’s continue. I’ve done a lot of work on this before in the Internet Topology Zoo but it’s now looking like analysis of large-scale online education is something I have to get good at, so it seemed a great opportunity to come and see how the DH community do this and get access to some mature processes and tools.
Why is this important as a visualisation (or representation, thanks, Elijah) target? Because pictures tell stories well and we can use this to drive argument and make change.
Let’s consider the Medici, the family who dominated Florence from the 1400s to the 18th century. While not being the most wealthy and powerful families at the outset, they were (by marriage and arrangements) one of the most well connected families. In fact, the connections from some groups of families to other families had to go through the Medicis – which made them more important because of their role in the network.
The graph makes the relationship and the importance clear. (Insert toast about Boston, Lowells and Cabots here.)
In graphs of the Internet, everything is connected to the Internet by definition, so we don’t have any isolated elements. (We do have networks that don’t connect to the Internet, such as super-secret defence networks and some power stations – not as many as there used to be – but we’re interested in the Internet.) It is possible to analyse communities and show ways that some people/entities/organisations are not connected to each other. Sometimes they form disconnected clusters, sometimes they sit by themselves, and this is where my interest comes in, because we can use this to analyse student behaviour as a learning community.
A student who enrols in your course is notionally part of your community but this is an administrative view of the network. It’s only when they take part in any learning and teaching activity that they actually become part of the learning community. Suddenly all of the students in your network can have a range of different types of connection, which is a good start to finding categories to talk about behaviour in large on-line courses, because now we can easily separate enrolment from attendance, attendance from viewing, viewing from participation in discussion, and discussion from submission of work. I hope to have a good look into this to find some nice (convenient) mathematical descriptions of the now defunct cMOOC/xMOOC distinction and how we can encourage behaviour to get students to form robust learning networks.
As we can see from the Medicis, the Medicis used their position in order to gain power – it wasn’t in their interests to form additional connections to make the network resilient if they fell on hard times. However, learning networks don’t want a central point that can fail (central points of failure are to be avoided in most contexts!) and this is why a learning community is so important. If students are connected to many other students and their lecturing staff, then the chances of one relationship (connection) failing causing the whole network to fail is very low. Some people are, naturally, very important in a learning community: we’d hope that instructors would be, tutors would be, and key students who handle discussions or explanations also would be. However, if we have very few of these important people, then everyone else is depending upon this small number to stay connected and this puts a lot of stress on these people and makes it easy for your network to fall apart.
I’ll talk more about this tomorrow and hit you with you some definitions!

New Man and I have just had a wonderful two weeks together. We spent a week celebrating Christmas with my family, topped and tailed with a day at each end with New Man's family. It was my youngest niece's first Christmas, and our first Christmas as man and wife. My father declared it the best Christmas ever - and I'm not going to argue.
We then came back and celebrated New Year with some dear friends, then battened down the hatches and spent four days just relaxing together. We pottered about, doing little jobs around the house, chatting, reading and generally just enjoying each other's company.
We went back to work yesterday, and New Man is working late tonight. I've made some supper, taken down the Christmas decorations, moved the Three Wise Men into the crib and lit the candles in front of the now-complete crib scene.
The crib needs a small amount of explanation. The stable and most of the figures were bought by my brother and his then girlfriend (now my sister-in-law) on a trip to Oberammergau. The figures are all hand-carved, and cost way more than they could afford at the time. The one thing they just couldn't stretch to was the Three Wise Men.
That was about 10 years ago, and ever since then I've been looking out for the Magi to complete the set. Last December, my sister and brother-in-law took me on a surprise trip to Munich, and we went round the Christmas markets there. There is one section of the market which is completely given over to hand-carved crib figures. Unfortunately, this being a surprise trip right at the beginning of December, I hadn't checked my existing figures, and hadn't even seen them since the previous Twelfth Night. I had to guess which figures would go best with the existing set.
Being taller and lighter in colour than all the local characters, I suspect my Wise Men may have come from the North, rather than the East...
I hope all three of my readers had a very happy and blessed Christmas, and wish you a very happy 2009.

What's Stopping You from Being Assertive?
The ability to be assertive that is, to get your point of view across diplomatically but without conceding ground and without provoking offence or conflict is one of the hallmarks of a strong business leader or manager. It's also one of the rarer qualities. Many of us fail to be assertive, even when it is justifiable, because of one, simple emotion. Fear. All too often we maintain a dignified silence in the presence of others when, in reality, it would serve us better to be more assertive. Common reasons for this include fear of upsetting another person, fear of making ourselves look stupid or fear that we don?t have sufficient authority to assert our opinions.
Leaders and managers who feel that they could be more assertive would undoubtedly benefit from attending Influencing and Assertiveness. This comprehensive course presented by leadership training experts Maguire Training helps delegates to become more assertive and better able to influence others by improving questioning and listening techniques, developing self-confidence, using appropriate body language and by utilising personal power and energy.
Something that is largely unrecognised by people who would class themselves as unassertive due to fear is that assertive people also experience the same fears, yet are able to overcome them. The truth is that no-one feels truly comfortable with being assertive, no matter how calm and confident they may appear on the surface. However, there are simple ways by which anyone can recognise and improve their own levels of assertiveness. Here, Maguire Training shares a couple of useful methods to help you evaluate what's stopping you from being assertive and overcome your fears.
Assertiveness is a valuable tool in effective communication and can help to resolve conflict and overcome problems. Maguire Training can help people at every level of business to improve their confidence, assertiveness and influencing skills, enabling them to achieve the results they want in any given situation. For the convenience of delegates, invaluable courses such as Assertive versus Aggressive Behaviour and Influencing Strategies are available as online training, easily accessed at any time and location via Maguire Training?s versatile mobile and E-learning system.

By Mary Withers
Every year, thousands of UNC seniors flood Kenan Stadium in a sea of Carolina blue caps and gowns. But this year, some won’t head there. They’ll be a mile away at another commencement.
Students set up an alternative graduation event to protest the University-chosen commencement speaker, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg. They say he doesn’t represent the values of Carolina. So, instead, they’ve scheduled another set of speakers that includes a peace activist, a novelist and an Occupy Wall Street organizer. Carolina Connection’s Mary Withers reports more on the reasons behind the alternative graduation and how students are reacting.

The World Through Sarah's Eyes
When life gives you lemons...
Hi! Welcome to my homepage. As you may have guessed, my name is Sarah.
I've lived in Fairbanks, Alaska for all of my 25 years (and, based on Will's and my land purchase in January of 2004, the entirety of however many remaining years I possess) and, unlike many
people, I actually like it. Despite the heinously long winter, I always appreciate Alaska's rugged wilderness, independent spirit, and relatively low population density. There's nothing like a visit to the highways of the Lower 48 to make me appreciate Fairbanks "traffic" (or lack thereof).
choke on 'em and die.
Stupid lemon eater.
And as I mentioned above, I have land now. Eight gorgeous acres upon which I intend to be the neighborhood hermit, snarling and spitting at all visitors and practicing my slingshot aim on the neighbors... ok, well, I guess not that bad, but whatever. Head to my house building page to check out our progress! We spent the summer of 2004 clearing and starting on the 40'x32' garage with an apartment up top. The important part of this is the 40'x32' GARAGE in which we can have TOOLS and mechanical STUFF and do cool SHOP things and be, like, mechanically adept!
I have a lot of updates that need to be done just to the main building page, but we are now, in fact, done with building the house. You can still check the page and the building diary and photo album and such, but we are DONE. And happy about it. So onwards to the next chapter of our lives...
Growing up in a rural area outside of Fairbanks with a couple of very adventurous parents made for a diverse range of childhood experiences. We camped A LOT, which I loved, owned a plethora of animals, and somehow seem to have made a lifetime project out of building our house (which now is exquisite). Check out the link below to see some interesting animal photos (mostly dogs and horses) from my past and present.
Among other things, I'm an enthusiastic amateur guitarist.
I've been playing for roughly ten years now and I am FAR from being a rockstar.
Another interest of mine is working on cars and motorcycles and other mechanical
things with my dad. He and I race motorcycles in the summer.
This is the 6-year-old version of me on Dad's 1987 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-R1000 (which, if you click it, will take you to my personal Tanacross page displaying pictures and stories of my own Tanacross experiences). I loved that bike. It's a bummer that it had to be sold to a moron who got it impounded within a week of purchase.
In the spring of 2000 I bought a 1983 Yamaha Virago 500 and got my first taste of racing. That winter I spent great amounts of time attempting to fix my dad's old racebike:
I finally got it running (with a little... well a LOT of help from my friends... THANKS CRAIG, STEVE, AND BRENNA!) in the spring of 2002 and raced it when it wasn't breaking down for one reason or another. I think I finally got all the bugs worked out of it, though (not). Click the link to find out more about the ongoing battle to return the bike to the land of the living.
a 1991 Suzuki GSX-R 750.
Will is actually the one working on getting it rideable again, since he tried to race it last year and we ran across a broad range of problems, most of which have, as yet, no diagnoses...
The breakdowns could have been worse, I suppose, but my dad was nice and let me ride his '99 Yamaha R-1 when the GSX-R was out of commission. Click the picture of me riding to check out the unofficial Tanacross webpage.
In more recent news, I bought a 2002 liquid silver Yamaha FZ-1 for my sexy street bike. Thank God for spring!! I've been riding it to work often now, and I do so love my bike.
Visit AKRoadracing.com - the Official Tanacross Website
I gave the Virago to my sister Caroline for Christmas in 2002, so she has joined the racing fray, and for Christmas 2003 we gave Dad a 2004 Yamaha R-1 (which is AWESOME!!) so I am buying the '99 R-1 off of him. What's better than having a race bike? Having TWO race bikes!! Caro has even gotten addicted and has now purchased a lovely Yamaha R-6 for an absolute song because the previous owner crashed it and so it would take a lot of money to make it street legal again. How perfect is that for a race bike?!
You can also check out my test Tanacross Page that Caro and I are using to experiment with ftp website building.
On that same note, you can check out the somewhat neglected unofficial Tanacross homepage that I created ages ago and haven't worked on in forever. There are some good pictures, I guess, though they're old...
August 11, 2006
NEWS FLASH!!! We had a race last weekend, and on Saturday I broke 3 minutes!!! I'm so EXCITED!! Be proud of me!! Some of you might not understand or really care about the significance of that statement, so I'll quickly explain. It means I finally got my lap times under 3 minutes. Specifically, I ran a 2:57 plus some tenths and hundreths I don't recall...
In the fall of 1996 I was fortunate enough to acquire a 1969 Volkswagen Beetle in relatively good condition. As I had a couple of years left before I could drive it, it served as a lawn ornament until I was 16, at which point my dad and I pulled the engine and tore it ALL the way down. Fun? You bet!
Click Below to See My Car Project Page
So, now you've witnessed the fact that I work on mechanical things, and I must spend some time on my webpage. Obviously. This may raise the question, "Is this poor girl really the lifeless cretin that she appears to be? Or is the apparent social outcast just using this pathetic image to get sympathy? IS IT ALL A FAÇADE??"
Sadly, no, it's not a façade, but I still have friends! Click the picture of me partying it up to view more aspects of my wildly zany social life!
While on the subject of my social status that borders on absolute celebrity, I feel that I should mention that I have managed to convince ONE male of my species (what do you mean "which species?"???) that I am not, in reality, a cerebrally deficient leper. I'm not sure he totally believed me, but he is truly forgiving of my incessant shortcomings to the point where he agreed to marry me. But in all seriousness, we are truly happy together and can't wait to get married. June 10, 2005 will be the day to remember! So check out my engagement page to see pictures of Will, the ring, and my dress! Oh, and there's a picture of my sister (ewwwwww!) in her maid of honor dress from her friend Shira's wedding. Cool stuff!
August 11, 2006
And on that same note, you can also see our wedding page!! It has some pictures and stuff... still needs a lot of updating that I will get to if I ever have spare time again...
Check out the Real Ultimate Power website! Ninjas are totally SWEET!
Links... the wave of the future...
Here are links to my three blogs - there are links on other pages, but here's the quick way to check them out if you want:
The House Building Saga
Life After (and some before) The Wedding - basically just my general blog
My Tucker Training Diary
And here are some other random links, including a link to a page full of links... confused yet?
Newyland: My friend Newy's awesome homepage
Links to Other Incredibly Cool Websites! (What...?)
Find me on MySpace and be my friend!

TAHAWUS, NY (July 18, 2018) - Having grown up in Lake Placid, the Open Space Institute’s (OSI) Northern program director Katie Petronis has always cherished the quiet forests and uninterrupted wilderness footpaths of the Adirondacks. Yet even for someone so familiar with the very best out-of-the-way trails, finding that solitude in the Adirondacks has become more of a challenge.
As a lifelong outdoor adventurer and someone who cares deeply about conservation, Petronis is encouraged by the growing number of people who have the desire to experience first-hand the natural beauty and rugged terrain of the Adirondacks, and the personal gratification that comes from spending a day on the land.
Yet with more visitors to the area comes added stress on the land. Some trails are taking a beating, especially those with a popular destination, such as those that lead to the famed High Peaks.
“It’s really wonderful to see a growing number of people exploring the Adirondack Park, since it means more people are developing a love and appreciation for the land and all it provides,” says Petronis. “But with this uptick comes an increased need for the conservation community, working with the state, to come up with solutions on the management side and expand recreational opportunities in other parts of the park.”
The work of OSI to provide people with new places to discover nature plays a critical role in this equation. In the face of increasing human pressure on the land, OSI is offering solutions that will better disperse eager explorers by securing additional acreage for public access; working with the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) to create a new point of entry to the High Peaks area; and improving recreational amenities and access points at OSI’s long-held Tahawus property.
As visitors drive into the High Peaks from the southeast, they enter the region by way of Tahawus, a 258-acre forested tract complete with an abandoned historic village and 19th century blast furnace. The property was acquired by OSI in 2003 as part of a much larger 10,000-acre purchase. With most of the land having been transferred to the state, OSI, with the support the Prospect Hills Foundation, the Walbridge Fund, and the Overhills Foundation, has installed interpretive signs and completed other site work on sections of Tahawus that it retains.
Then just last year, OSI unveiled a series of planned improvements aimed at bolstering Tahawus as a recreational destination, while also developing alternative routes to nearby Mount Marcy and and a host of nearby High Peaks destinations such as Mount Marshall, Iroquois Peak, Boundary Peak, and the Colden and Algonquin peaks. Trailhead improvements, a comfort station, and the potential conversion of an historic cottage into an outfitter station should also draw hikers and climbers—helping to ease the pressure on the northern High Peaks entry points.
Some 30 minutes southeast of Tahawus is another destination that promises to become an important Adirondack entry point, thanks in part to OSI. In 2017, Governor Andrew Cuomo unveiled plans to repurpose Frontier Town, once a popular Wild West theme park that has since fallen into disrepair, as the new “Gateway to the Adirondacks.”
The Gateway project builds on a master plan commissioned by OSI and supported by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC). The Gateway will serve as a new jumping-off point to such places as the state’s recently acquired 10,000-acre Boreas Pond property, as well as myriad hiking corridors. The Gateway will also offer a public campground and equestrian facilities and trails.
Meanwhile, OSI continues to conserve breathtaking areas in other parts of the Adirondacks. In 2017, OSI purchased the Trembleau Mountain-Lake Champlain Shoreline property in Essex County and Huckleberry Mountain in Warren County. Each of these features breathtaking views, as well as thigh-burning hiking trails that are equal to the grandeur of the High Peaks.
The 618-acre Trembleau Mountain-Lake Champlain Shoreline property features multiple bald peak vistas and more than 4,000 feet of frontage on Lake Champlain. Just two hours from Albany, the property is also the scenic backdrop to Schuyler Island, which is popular with kayakers. Now transferred to the state, and in the care of the DEC, the Trembleau Mountain-Lake Champlain acquisition becomes one of the newest additions to the Adirondack Forest Preserve.
In the southern section of Adirondack Park, the 1,285-acre Huckleberry Mountain property in Johnsburg features spectacular ridgeline hiking and access to a series of previously inaccessible rock climbing routes. Huckleberry Mountain will become a new addition to Wilcox Lake Wild Forest, and will dramatically expand access to Crane Mountain, a popular, publicly-accessible mountain peak in the Wild Forest.
“What OSI has accomplished in the Adirondacks in the past few decades is absolutely tremendous,” marveled Alan Via, a local hiking guide and author who is enthusiastic about OSI’s most recent Adirondack acquisition projects. “Huckleberry Mountain will be a great attraction in the region — fantastic for climbers, and hikers will love the views. Meanwhile, the Trembleau Mountain property is another great idea that will attract hikers and families from all over.”
Looking ahead, the rate of continued visitor growth only underscores the importance of the work of conservation groups like OSI, and their ongoing commitment to managing access and expanding recreational opportunities around the Adirondacks’ beloved natural areas.
“Welcoming people to the Adirondacks is not only good for local economies, but also critical to encouraging greater appreciation for all that makes this area worth preserving,” said Basil Seggos, Commissioner of the New York State DEC. “The challenge lies in pursuing expanded recreational opportunities while instilling a conservation ethic that will protect the Adirondacks for future generations.”

A new study from the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) and sponsored by General Electric (GE) highlights the importance of innovation for manufacturing competitiveness. The authors surveyed 360 senior executives in August, including 96 CEOs, from a wide range of manufacturing industries across the U.S. Ninety percent of the respondents said that innovation was instrumental to their long-term success.
Moreover, the industries that were identified to have the “greatest opportunity for growth” over the next one to three years were ones which rely heavily on research and development, such as high-tech, pharmaceuticals/biotech, energy, green tech and electronics.
Given the importance of innovation, it should not be surprising that these same leaders noted the role that government should play in advancing science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education. In fact, 38 percent of them said that investments in STEM education would help to manufacturers. If we are to remain competitive in global markets, we will need to depend on innovative operations and products.
Yet, this training also brings to mind another challenge: the need for trained workers for advanced manufacturing. In addition to it being cited in this study, the Manufacturing Institute released a study on the skills gap in U.S. manufacturing yesterday on this topic. Among its findings, it says that manufacturers “are having the hardest time filling skilled production jobs that fuel their ability to innovate and grow, even in the face of high unemployment.”
The EIU/GE study also focuses on other issues important to NAM members. For instance, 51 percent of respondents said that the U.S. should “create tax incentives to keep manufacturing in the U.S.,” with another 34 percent suggesting that corporate tax rates should be reduced. Clearly, manufacturers are aware of the fact that the tax structure in the U.S. is in need of reform, especially if we are to remain competitive with the rest of the world. At the same time, 46 percent of respondents “have a negative or very negative attitude towards the current regulatory environment’s ability to support U.S. manufacturing….”
Overall, this provides an interesting analysis, providing a complement to “A Manufacturing Renaissance: Four Goals for Economic Growth,” which was released last week by the NAM.
Chad Moutray is chief economist, National Association of Manufacturers.

Hanford Criminal Defense Attorney | Criminal Defense Lawyer Hanford | Casey D. Martin | 115 W Grangeville Blvd, Hanford, CA 93230
THE MARTIN LAW FIRM | Serving Hanford, Lemoore, CA
Kings County Spousal Support Attorney | Alimony
The income levels between two partners in a marriage are not always equal. Perhaps one spouse stayed at home and raised children or was unemployed for a period of time. During a divorce or legal separation, it can be difficult to adjust to a sudden income reduction. Temporary or permanent alimony might be available to help ease this transition for you.
What is Alimony and how is it determined?
Alimony is sometimes referred to as spousal support or spousal maintenance. It is calculated by looking at a variety of factors including the length of the marriage, the current income of both spouses, and the earning potential of both spouses. California offers both temporary and permanent alimony options. Temporary alimony is generally awarded before a divorce is finalized. Permanent alimony is usually dealt with at the time of a divorce. Modifications can occur in special circumstances, such as after a remarriage or job loss.
Casey D. Martin can help with temporary and permanent alimony cases, as well as with modifications and enforcement actions.
Contact an experienced Kings County attorney to handle your alimony case. Call 559-530-3144 for more information and a free consultation from Casey D. Martin.

Women in Nepal celebrate the Hartalika Teej festival with great pomp and fervor. Hartalika Teej is dedicated to Maa Hartalika, a form of Goddess Parvati and commemorates the day when Lord Shiva accepted her to be his wife. The name Teej is derived from a small red insect of the same name and hence the color red assumes significance during the Teej celebrations.
As per the lunar calendar, the festival falls on the third day of the bright fortnight (Shukla Paksha) in the month of Bhadrapad. Teej coincides with the monsoon season and heralds the arrival of rains. During the Teej festival, married women pray for the longevity, prosperity and happiness of their husbands, while girls who are yet to tie the knot pray for attaining a happy married life. The Teej celebrations last for three days with each day having its own importance.
The first day of the festival is known as “Dar Khane Din” and is a time for merrymaking. Women dressed up at their best in red or bridal clothes gather at a common place to celebrate with traditional dancing and singing. They partake in a grand feast called “Dar” with a variety of foods that include rice porridge, yogurt, sel, puri, fruits and desserts. The celebrations continue until midnight after which the 24-hour period of fasting begins.
On day two, women and girls observe a strict fast without consuming even a drop of water. They visit the nearby Shiva temples and make offerings of flowers and fruits to the deities. The Pashupatinath temple in Kathmandu is thronged by a large number of devotees. Lighting of the oil lamp is considered an important part of the puja and the lamp is kept lit throughout the night to avoid any bad omen.
Rishi Panchami is the third day of the festival when women take a holy bath with the red mud from the roots of the Datiwan bush, which is believed to purify them from all sins. The seven rishis of the Hindu pantheon are then worshipped. Karkalo vegetable with rice and ghee is consumed as the major food on this day.
This year Hartalika Teej falls on Thursday 24th August. A large number of tourists from abroad have been visiting Nepal in recent years during the Teej period to experience the grand celebrations which include Teej fairs, folk songs and colorful dances. Teej in Nepal is a period of great rejoicing and also the time for strengthening the relationships between women, couples and their families.

The Master Greeter
Spencer was adopted as a puppy by Dr.Leung in 2006, and is the oldest of his fur-kids! He is energetic, sometimes loud, but always sweet. He loves being around people, and can be found hanging with our office manager Jen in the front lobby waiting to greet all his friends!
Kimberly has been working in the Veterinary field for over 10 years now, but has had a life long passion for helping animals. She has rescued many pets from dogs to ferrets, and is a passionate advocate for animal welfare. Kim currently has 4 dogs "Pookie", "Bindi", "Whiskey", and "Paul Wall". She also has two cats "Bolsa", and "Jonah". When she's not at work Kim enjoys spending time with her boyfriend, fur kids, and playing softball.
Dani has been working with animals for over 6 years, and loves it. She plans on pursing a career in the Veterinary field as a Technician. When Dani isn't at work she's with her boyfriend, and 2 fur-kids a cat "Doc", and her dog "McFly".
"I'm SOOOO happy I remembered Dr. Leung, he saved my angel from his allergy breakout. My 12 yr old baby broke out with a terrible rash that he kept scratching his face and leaving it bloody. He was so uncomfortable I felt helpless. After a day my boy was feeling much better and doing great now. I'm very grateful for his health. I will return and share my experience with other pet owners."
Mariana L. of La Mirada,CA
"The staff here has gone above and beyond for my pets and my friend's pets. I always recommend them to anyone who's looking for a vet. It's a small spot, but don't let looks deceive you! They are the most caring vet staff and so caring to your concerns and needs. I adore Kim and always try to go when she's working. She's the most caring vet tech and I trust her 100% with my fur babies! Great spot, you won't regret coming here, can't say enough nice things about them"Natalie L. Of Costa Mesa

Director-General Meets Australian Foreign Minister
On 28 August, the Director-General met with the Honourable Julie Bishop, Foreign Minister of Australia, in Bali, Indonesia.
On this occasion, Irina Bokova thanked the Foreign Minister for the strength of support by the Government of Australia to UNESCO, including to the EFA Global Monitoring Report as well as to supporting local communities around the Borobudur Temple, inscribed on the World Heritage List. The Foreign Minister underlined also UNESCO's work in Myanmar, including a school for training, which she had visited.
The discussion followed on UNESCO's work to promote freedom of expression across the world, as well as the safety of journalists.
The Director-General recalled the celebrations of World Press Freedom Day in Brisbane in 2010 and the depth of Australia's commitment in this respect. The Foreign Minister thanked UNESCO for all this work and looked to further action across the board to advance media freedoms, including in specific cases. The DG pledged to continue UNESCO's action in this area.
The Foreign Minister raised the issue of the Great Barrier Reef, and the decision taken at the last meeting of the World Heritage Committee in Doha to call for increased protection measures. She underlined the Government's deep interest in ensuring the current status of the site, emphasizing the great efforts undertaken by the authorities at all levels to preserve the site and the pride of the Australian society in the Great Barrier Reef. The Director-General highlighted the emblematic importance of the site as embodying universal values and its deep significance for the people of Australia. In this respect, she suggested a stronger communication and dialogue with the Committee and the consultative bodies in order to share the efforts of the Australian Government and achievements in this area.
