With Jon away, Jude joins Alex, Eve and Quentin on a trip with Ian and Cameron to the caves in Margaret River. A fantastic weekend with a big tiger snake in our hut feasting on the rats, I am happy we slept outside under the stars!
We visit 5 caves: Bridal, Dingo and I forgot the other names. Bridal was the one with the abseil and big ascend. Dingo was the one where we entered through an awesome chimney and played around getting lost in and around the big boulders. So much fun! The last cave on the Sunday was the one with the creek flowing through which meant on our knees through the mud and even at one point on our bellies!
can you see Jude at the bottom of the cave as she starts the jumar up to the top?
made it, hard work that!
bit muddy, but so much fun!
outside again, that was awesome!!!

New York City, with its rich history of public playgrounds, is on the verge of a bold experiment in the way children play, one that could accelerate the trend away from monkey bars, swings and seesaws used by generations of city children.
In an unusual public-private partnership, the city is developing a playground near the South Street Seaport that will have trained “play workers” on hand to help children interact with features of the new playground: water, ramps, sand and specially designed objects meant to spur the imagination.
The concept is not just another accouterment for Manhattan’s pampered toddler set. Rather, city officials say, it reflects the latest thinking about child-rearing. They hope the new playground concept will be replicated across the five boroughs and that it will serve as an inspiration for other cities.
Based on child-development theories that children need to engage in social and fantasy play rather than just build physical skills, the project was conceived and is being designed at no charge by David Rockwell, famous for creating adult play spaces like the restaurants Nobu and Café Gray and the Mohegan Sun casino and resort.
Although the space is to be open to the public, the play workers, a concept already popular in Europe, are being financed by Mr. Rockwell, who is raising $2 million privately to cover the costs.
The American playground of swing sets and steel monkey bars has already been evolving with more imaginative features in recent years. But behaviorists and others say planners could go even further to reflect more refined ideas about nurturing children, especially those younger than 12.
“Very little time is spent by kids in playgrounds if they have a choice,” said Roger Hart, who has been consulting with the Rockwell Group and the city in developing the playground. He is also a director of the Children’s Environments Research Group at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. “They limit the repertoire of play to children’s physical activity,” instead of encouraging the kind of social, sensory, interactive and individual fantasy play that children need, Mr. Hart said.
Once upon a time, parents took their children to city playgrounds to push them endlessly in swings or watch them hang from monkey bars (since removed; too dangerous) or let them struggle with the rudiments of sharing shovels in a sandbox. And both parent and child felt they were doing pretty well.
The new playground, however, aims to do better: Developers of the Lower Manhattan project envision groups of children collaborating, for instance, loading containers with sand, hoisting them up with pulleys and then lowering them down to wagons waiting to be wheeled off to another part of the park.
What may sound like a training ground for tiny construction workers actually holds huge developmental benefits, backers say. “You have a level of interaction that you would never have with fixed parts,” Mr. Hart said.
The project would transform a parking lot at Burling Slip in the South Street Seaport Historic District, an area that has few playgrounds and is increasingly attractive to residents with children. The plan has already won the support of city and state elected officials and community leaders.
The idea has the support of Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg. Parks officials are devising plans to supply those who already work in other playgrounds with the loose objects, which range from foam blocks and cardboard tubes to spindles and burlap bags, and train them to encourage children to play with them. And in a classic Bloombergian touch, the city hopes that if the idea catches on elsewhere, it could market the playground products.
Mr. Rockwell, the designer, acknowledged that there were plenty of great play spaces in the city, and he and his team designed their playground as a complement to those that already exist. Still, he said, watching his children, 4 and 7, play inspired him to create something based more on the imagination.
Mr. Rockwell has already developed a relationship with the city, helping to design a viewing platform over ground zero, a project for which he also helped raise private financing. After another partnership to develop theatrical spaces downtown fell through, Mr. Rockwell, who lives in Lower Manhattan, realized there was an immediate need for a playground.
Commissioner Benepe, it turned out, was an advocate for rethinking the city’s playgrounds, and there was money available from both the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation and the Economic Development Corporation as part of larger efforts to redevelop the area.
Whether the playground experiment proves successful, and can be replicated, is an open question, educators and parents say.
The modern American playground has its roots in the late 19th century, when settlement houses in New York worked to create spaces for children to play, Mr. Benepe said.
According to Susan G. Solomon, who wrote the book “American Playgrounds,” which traces their evolution, playground design in the 1950s and ’60s was borrowed from post-war Europe with the concept of the adventure playground. That idea was based on the fact that children most enjoyed building their own playthings and manipulating their own environment.
But, Ms. Solomon, who is also consulting on the new playground, said that in the ’70s, concerns over injury and liability took over, and high-ticket architects largely abandoned playground design.
Now, Ms. Solomon said, the United States has fallen far behind Europe and Japan. In Great Britain, for instance, play is a government priority, with organizations dedicated to research, training and oversight of play workers and the development of play programs.
What the Rockwell Group has proposed for Lower Manhattan is a figure-eight-shape landscape, with sloping wooden ramps for running that connect a zone of sand to a zone of water. A structure would house the loose parts, including foam blocks, small boats and collections of tubing, elbows and gaskets for construction projects, all to be maintained and overseen by the play workers.
The design also calls for a system of pulleys and ropes for children to lift and transport objects, as well as a climbing net and shading sails that relate to the area’s maritime history and setting.

Pretty much everybody at this point has heard about the shooting that happened in Las Vegas that would take the lives of dozens of people, injuring hundreds of others. While most people have had their focus on dissecting the evil behind the act, we think that there are definitely some people who deserve a little bit more recognition for the good that they have done in the process of making sure their fellow human beings could get to safety and get the medical attention that they needed. One of the people that helped out in that process is 29-year-old Taylor Winston who decided that he would find a nearby truck with the keys in it and get to action, delivering people to the hospital who had been wounded in the attack.
For Winston, it really seems like an experience that he saw as something that he simply just had to do as he was on the scene and saw all of the terror that was going on around him. However, even though this is something that seems to just be ingrained in his DNA, you can’t really say that the majority of people would have been as brave as Winston was, hopping in a truck and going back towards the scene of the chaos in order to help out others. The story practically erupted on social media about a week or so ago and now, others who have seen the heroics have decided that they wanted to help give back to this man who seemed to be so selfless in providing an example for just about everybody to follow.
When the folks at B5 Motors saw all the ruckus around the story, they decided that they wanted to give Winston his very own customized Ford F-150, a gift of a high caliber that Winston seemed incredibly humbled to have been selected for. After a lot of talking with friends and thinking the matter over, he decided that he would accept the gift and the video below shows off his reaction to getting his very own custom truck, free of charge. Winston says that he’s going to go on and do good with the truck as to put some good karma back into the world to thank others who are doing good for him. You can follow along with how he was feeling with receiving the gift down the video below along with his recollection of what happened on that one fateful night.

Honestly I forgot that I even had this box coming in the mail! I've been really out of the blogosphere for a few months now, sadly I haven't had the time to read many blogs so I saw no spoilers or unboxings and was pleasantly surprised when it turned up at my door! The Walmart Beauty Box is a quarterly subscription that sends you a box of beauty goodies (plus coupons!) four times a year for free! All you pay for is $5 shipping! This is a great deal because it gives you a chance to try out some products from Walmart that maybe you wouldn't normally pick up and usually there is at least one full size makeup product in there so it makes the $5 price completely worth it.
These are definitely not themed by the season, it just seems like they stick in a collection of random samples. I knew when they first started out there was an "older" (34+) and "younger" (<34) box going. Like I mentioned I'm really out of the loop when it comes to these things so I'm not sure if that is something that has continued, but if it did I would have received one of the younger boxes. Judging by the contents though it seems like very general stuff this time so I suspect these tiers have been eliminated. Let's get into the goods for this quarter!
I have soo many shampoo and conditioner samples now but this is a drugstore brand that I have never heard of and therefore I'm looking forward to testing it out! Ever since the grand success with the L'Oreal duo that I received last quarter I'm a little bit more interested in this set then I normally would be!
I used a Neutrogena product once a long time ago and got a horrible rash from it and since then I've avoided all Neutrogena products. My skin has changed quite a bit though from when that happened so I'm game to try out this facial cleanser. Before I used St Ives Dove was my go to body wash so I can never have enough of these travel sized cuties and at this point I think I pretty much have every scent there is!
A full size mascara! I have quite a mascara hoard now especially since I discovered that Costco sells packs of my favorite drugstore mascara, Clump Crusher, but I'll happily add this to the collection and either myself or someone will discover the joys of it. I haven't gotten perfume samples in awhile so I'm not complaining about this one.
The final thing in the box is a whole mess of coupons and small foil packet samples. There are so many of them that I can't complain about an essentially free box.

Hi , is there a way in MQ appliance to dynamically change the MQMD.UserIdentifier parameter from the payload of the message?
we have a requirement where we need to update dynamically the MQMD.UserIdentifier in the message before sending the message to 3rd party application.
In our previous MQ infra, we had Channel exits defined to do that, as MQ appliance can not have channel exits, we need to find another way to do that.
Is there a way in MQ to do that?
You'll have to write a program to do that.
Hi Fjb_saper, we tried to do it before the put but when the message came to MQ over SVRConn channel, it gets replaced by MCA user ID.
We don't want to leave MCAuser ID field blank due to security reason.
Do you mean by this that when you send the message to the MQ appliance the value is replaced by the value of the channel's MCAUSER?
Why not? It was a problem before Channel Authority records, but why is it a problem for you now?
You will need authority at the queue level and the queue manager level to set the Identity Context. +setid. You need it on both the queue and queue manager.
You will then need to set the correct option on the MQOPEN call and again the correct option on the MQPUT call to set the Identity context.
If you have this authority and you use these options you will be able to produce a messages whose MQMD User Identifier is what you set, overriding the value in the channel's MCAUSER.
Hi Vitor, yes you are right. The value we set in our Java Program gets replaced by the channel MCAUSER.
or do you mean a MQ admin?
Want to answer the 2nd question now?
You can hard code the MCAUSER of the channel to an ID in a group that has the +setid permissions just for the queues that this channel is meant to serve. Also +setid for the Queue Manager. Then use a Security Exit and/or TLS and/or CHLAUTH to control what application can use that channel. At that point that app can set the MQMD User Identifier if they want, or let it default to the MCAUSER value.
Hi Vitor, "channel authority records" is something I have heard 1st time, need to explore it and then only I will be able to answer ur question.
I recommend to you read the posts made on this forum by Morag, the Queen Empress of Channel Authority Records. These contain not only useful information but links to her very excellent blog posts.
I think Vitor means "Channel Authentication Records" aka CHLAUTH.
One more comment like that and I'll dock your pay. I'll start paying you, then dock it.
Now go clean that torture chamber - I've got a project manager meeting later.

Our brain is a complicated subject of study, with years of resources put behind it to understand its complexities and capabilities. Our brain functions in a certain way for different scenarios, especially our instincts and reflex behaviors — which are a product of our subconscious mind that has been training itself. Your conscious behavior is a part of your voluntary movements and only a tip of your brain’s capacity. On the other hand, your subconscious mind is always in a training mode — with an enormous amount of memory visuals and things which you notice but do not pay attention to. Everything you see, hear, smell, taste, experience, learn, and even imagine gets stored in this internal hard drive or subconscious memory of yours. So what is the correct way to train our subconscious mind and make a greater use of the capabilities of the mind? One such element which has been proven to be highly beneficial is meditation. Meditation is a deeper soul searching and proper gateway to your subconscious mind.
There are numerous ways and techniques to access and train your subconscious mind, but nothing comes close to the impact of meditation and yoga. It helps you to deep dive into your consciousness, which is a dreamlike environment. As you go deeper, your brain patterns slow down a bit and become more structured and balanced with your conscious environment — the things you see and feel around you. It helps you better the power of subconscious mind and thereby trains our mind for success.
Our workshops and programs at Karma Conceptz are designed to help your conscious brain work and respond to outside stimuli in a positive manner. The conscious mind reacts to every condition put forth and decides what to do in that scenario. The conscious mind has been associated with alertness and response; but then there is anxiety, stress, and anger which follows and make your life a bit hard. With meditation, you deep diver into your soul, you do not wait for external stimuli to respond to. Basically, you connect to yourself. As you get used to it and follow a daily routine, you will start realizing the great effects it has — such as, your way of thinking will become clearer, your mental fatigue level will be curbed down and you will feel charged up and fresh for the most part of the day. In the beginning phase while you’re sitting calmly, certain random thoughts will pop up. Mind you, these thoughts are not random but something your unconscious mind has attained which the conscious part is not able to relate to. So why not start with a simple method of empowering oneself and routinely practice it for at least 15 minutes on a daily basis.? A small step today will reap you a lifetime worth of power and utilization of the hidden powers of your subconscious mind.
How can I start the meditation and what do I need?
Meditation is nothing but calming yourself down and concentrating on a single point of reference or a thought for a certain period of time. The best part is, you do not need any fancy types of equipment and trainers to make you good at it. All you need to do is find a quiet place to sit down, close your eyes, do not think about anything in particular and just breathe in and breathe out. That is, it! If you do this daily for 10-15 minutes and increase it slowly — if you feel the need — then you will notice the changes it has brought in your life. Meditation will make you think more vividly and make you calm and composed.
If you seek help in attaining the Power of Subconscious mind or to understand the dynamics of body, mind & soul by understanding your Chakras and subconscious mind, write to us on heal@karmaconceptz.com You can explore the available holistic healing sessions here.

After a short break its another stellar UFC card.
This one sees the return of Raquel Pennington as she attempts to defeat women’s champion Amanda Nunes. Also on the card we have Ronaldo Souza against Kelvin Gastelum in the co-main event that surely has title ramification at middleweight and two Brazilian legends go head to head as Victor Belfort takes on Lyoto Machida.
Check out our picks and let us know what you think!
Having not graced the octagon since November 2016, Raquel Pennington will surely struggle against an opponent who not only holds the belt, but also rides a 6 fight win streak. Both fighters have good hands but Pennington will need to close the distance early doors, as it is Nunez that posses knockout power. With it being a 5 round affair, a late stoppage is most likely, but Pennington is one tough cookie and might just make it to the final bell.
Fans might slate us for this but we think Gastelum might do a Robert Whittaker on ‘Jacare’. Granted he isn’t the most reliable fighter (weight, weed, up and down record etc) but the TUF winner is a wrecking machine when his game is on point. Souza is undoubtably a massive talent and we might end up regretting this....but as you know, we are risk takers here at Smuggling Duds HQ!
A lot was expected from BJJ standout Mackenzie Dern in her UFC debut but as with many first timers, the step up in competition mixed in with the dreaded ‘Octagon jitters’ Caught up with her on the night. Although she took home a decision victory over Ashley Yoder it appeared to be hard work. TUF contestant Amanda Cooper is a slight step up in competition but Dern should have her cardio under control and come in much more prepared this time.
In our opinion this is the toughest bout to call as both looked really impressive in their last appearances respectively. Definitely has 3 rounds written all over it.
A battle of two MMA veterans with a couple of former UFC champions, riddled with battle wounds and heading into their 40’s now being put against one another to determine who can still cut it in the biggest MMA organisation in the world. Both fighters were on losing streaks until decision victories were scored in their last bouts, saving their careers and resulting in this match. The loser will be given another fight but will seriously need to consider a retirement date.
Ferreira hasn’t been very consistent of late and could come up short against a hungry Contender Series winner. The Brazilian will have to be on his toes but will be in for a tough night.
Anyone remember Albini’s shorts in his last outing? We sure do! They were hideous and the Brazilian resembled a grown man in a nappy. For that reason he deserved to lose against Arlovski. If he’s sorted his attire out for this one he may be in with a chance of winning against a fighter who is in the twilight of his career. Although he was expected to beat Arlovski and he didn’t produce the goods. Risky call by us.
Hein has been a reliable cash cow for at the bookies so we’ll stick with him again for this one as his judo game and solid takedown defence tend to sway him towards a points victory.
Another close one that will come down who is deemed the most active in the judges eyes on the night.
A close one and unless we are proven wrong, probably wont be one of the more exciting bouts on the card.
Up until the start of 2015, Thales Leites was on such a good run he was being considered as a title contender. The last couple of years have been tough for the Brazilian and it could be argued his best fights are behind him now. Hermansson suffered a bad loss in his last outing so will be looking to bounce back in style.
With his last fight being all the way back in July 2016, Mina would have no doubt be more of a household name if he had been more active. he’ll be looking to remind fans of what they’ve been missing and should look to do a number on Emeev.

We’ve been reporting on Ridley Scott’s Prometheus sequel, Alien: Covenant, before it was even cool (like, when it was just called plain ol’ Prometheus 2, then Prometheus: Paradise Lost, AND THEN Alien: Covenant).
After misinforming everyone that Prometheus’ sole human survivor, Noomi Rapace, wouldn’t show up in the upcoming sequel (hey, that’s what Scott himself said), Deadline reports that right now she’s shooting “weeks worth of scenes” for the long-awaited sci-fi sequel that better have some goddamn xenomorphs in it.
As you may or may not know, Alien: Covenant will also star Michael Fassbender, Katherine Waterston, Danny McBride, Demian Bichir, and Billy Crudup, who played Doctor Manhattan in Zack Snyder’s ambitious Watchmen adaptation. ICYMI, here’s a teaser pic of Waterston (who plays a character named Daniels) that the Alien peeps shared on Facebook just under a month ago.
We’re still over a year away from the R-rated film’s August 4, 2017 release, but here are 11 chest-bursting facts about the original 1979 masterpiece to help tide you over.

The slowdown in the housing market has begun to show up in local unemployment numbers.
The Illinois Department of Employment Security Thursday reported a loss of 600 construction jobs in the past year contributed to a slight increase in Springfield-area unemployment -- to 8.5 percent in July from 8.4 percent in June.
It was the second monthly increase in a row, leaving the rate for July at its highest level in more than three decades.
“Given the housing numbers, I think that definitely played a part,” said local labor-market economist Ron Payne.
Earlier this week, the Capital Area Association of Realtors reported sales of existing single-family homes dropped 39 percent in July compared to a year ago. The city of Springfield reported issuing only one home-building permit for the month, though more than a dozen have been filed for August.
Chatham and Sherman reported home-construction was up slightly compared to a year ago, but numbers were down somewhat in Rochester.
Local job losses in construction, professional and business services (temporary hires) and the tourism industry more than offset job gains in health care, government, transportation, warehousing and utilities.
According to IDES, the increase in government employment was a lingering effect of U.S. Census hiring. State government employment remained flat.
There was better news in the latest report for four cities hit hardest by the recession — Peoria, Rockford, Decatur and Chicago — where a rebound in manufacturing reduced rates compared to a year ago.
“It’s been across the board, but we’ve had a lot of hires at Caterpillar,” said Craig Coil, president of the Economic Development Corporation for Decatur and Macon County.
Coil said manufacturing jobs create more jobs in construction, the service industry and support services. He added that, while the outlook has improved, the recovery of jobs lost to recession still has a long way to go.
“Three years ago, unemployment was at 5 percent, and our folks were having trouble finding enough workers,” said Coil.
More than 300 retail jobs are on the horizon in Springfield.
The Scheels sporting goods chain has opened a local office to coordinate hiring for the store scheduled to open in June 2011 at the intersection of the MacArthur Boulevard extension and Interstate 72.
“We’ve moved part of our leadership team there, and we’re in that process,” company president Steven Scheel said Thursday. Initial hiring has been for management positions.
A representative at the local office said specifics still are being worked out to fill store associate positions.
The two-story store will be the first in Illinois and the 24th overall for the company, which is based in Fargo, N.D.

Our Lake of the Ozarks family-fun attraction isn't the only cave tour to enjoy in Missouri. Last week our blog, Show Caves to Visit in Missouri - Part 1, featured eight exciting caves full of natural wonders in addition to Bridal Cave. This week's blog continues that look with seven more show caves that help to give our state it's nickname of "The Cave State."
This cave is a part of the Ozark National Scenic Riverways, one of our national parks located in Van Buren. During the summer months, park rangers take up to 15 people at a time on this 2-hour, somewhat strenuous cave tour.
Today, our Lake of the Ozarks cave tour has decided to share the spotlight with some of the other show caves in Missouri. Cave exploring is an excellent winter activity due to the fact that you can experience nature and the great outdoors, but in a sheltered and climate-controlled way. If you couldn't decide on a good New Year's resolution for 2017, why not make yours trying to visit every show cave in this blog series? January is a great time to get started!
With the wide variety of numerous visitors that we see every year at our Lake of the Ozarks family attraction, we are constantly answering all sorts of questions not only about Bridal Cave, but also about the lake area itself.
Quite often we have folks stopping by the park looking for answers. Sometimes people simply want to know where a good place to eat is or what other local attractions that they should make it a point to visit. We take pride in trying our best to answer all of the questions asked of us. As a matter of fact, we train all of our staff to be familiar with the entire lake area and what it has to offer.

While major gold ETFs such as the SPDR Gold Shares (NYSE:GLD) and the iShares Gold Trust (NYSE:IAU) have been lethargic to start 2013, leading some traders to ponder the fate of the yellow metal's 12-year winning streak, some analysts and investors still see upside ahead for gold.
Not surprisingly, part of the near-term bull case for gold centers around the Federal Reserve's plans to keep interest rates near zero through 2015.
"Given that the Federal Reserve is committed to keeping short-term interest rates at near zero through 2015, we see no opportunity cost for buying and holding gold anytime soon. Low short-term interest rates reduce the opportunity cost of holding gold as an investment," S&P Capital IQ said in a research note.
S&P Capital IQ does not have ratings on the marquee gold mining ETFs, such as the Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (NYSE:GDX) and the Market Vectors Junior Gold Miners ETF (NYSE:GDX), but the research firm sees opportunities with what previously been a disappointing group among sector ETFs.
"Despite higher gold prices, global mine production has been stagnant for over a decade," said the research firm. "We believe production will remain stagnant for the next several years, as old mines are becoming depleted and are not being replaced to the extent needed to significantly lift output. Through the first three quarters of 2012, mine production fell 1.9%."
The research firm sees countries, such as China, with large dollar reserves looking to diversify away from the greenback and into larger gold holdings.
"Additionally, we think that gold will rise in all currencies due to the implementation of quantitative easing by central banks worldwide," S&P said.
S&P is bullish on some individual gold miners, including Barrick Gold (NYSE:ABX) and Randgold Resources (NASDAQ:GOLD), both of which garner four-star S&P ratings. S&P has a three-star rating on Newmont Mining (NYSE:NEM). Barrick is GDX's largest holding with a weight of almost 12.1 percent. Newmont is that ETF's third-largest holding with an allocation of nearly eight percent.
Despite gold futures rising over the past year, the $8.7 billion GDX is off 15 percent in that time. The more volatile GDXJ has been even worse, tumbling 23.1 percent over the same time. However, some traders have noted an uptick in share creations for GDXJ in recent weeks, a potentially bullish sign.
Additionally, S&P notes that GDXJ could outperform GDX "in a rapidly rising gold price environment." GDXJ has $2.5 billion in assets and an annual expense ratio of 0.54 percent.

Home Kidz Midrash Stories Who Is Wealthy?
Who is wealthy? One who is satisfied with his lot. The maxim of Chazal is the key to human happiness. Because one who is never satisfied, who constantly seeks more, will never be happy. He will never achieve contentment; there will always be another beautiful house, another even more distinguished-looking car.
But Chazal go further. They praise the man who, in the midst of his sorrows and suffering, does not lift up his voice in complaint to G-d, but accepts his lot and realizes that everything the Almighty does is for good, that all the Lord’s ways are of peace and truth.
One day, the great Rabi Akiva was preparing to travel on a long journey. To this end, he saddled his donkey, took along a candle with which to see in the dark and a rooster to awaken him in the morning from his sleep.
Awakening early, he began his journey. That whole day, Rabi Akiva traveled along the unfamiliar countryside, and as darkness fell he entered a strange town.
The results were no different in the second house that Rabi Akiva tried, nor the third, nor any to which he turned for assistance.
Rabi Akiva was forced to the realization that he could find no hospitality in this wicked village, and so he decided to leave and sleep in the woods that night.
Alighting from his donkey, Rabi Akiva took the candle from his pack and lit it. As light flooded the area, Rabi Akiva was thankful, for now he could see what he was doing. Suddenly, however, a gust of wind blew past him; the candle’s flame flickered for a moment and died.
Tying his rooster to the tree and tethering his donkey, Rabi Akiva climbed into the tree and prepared to go to sleep.
About an hour later, however, he was awakened by the crowing of the rooster and its terrible screechings. Peering down, Rabi Akiva saw a fox leap upon the helpless fowl and dash off with it into the night.
The worst misfortune, however, was yet to come. In past times, the Land of Israel had many lions roaming through its isolated areas. Now, one of these predatory beasts, smelling the donkey tied to the tree, leaped upon it and to the horror of Rabi Akiva in the tree above, devoured it.
It was frightened away, however, by the sudden approach of marching feet. There, not more than 10 feet from the tree passed a band of armed bandits and killers on the prowl, in search for victims to rob and murder.
The next day, Rabi Akiva without his donkey or rooster, walked down the road that led to the town.
As he approached, he saw smoke rising from the little village. Running forward, he encountered three dazed individuals, residents of the burning village.
“Woe is to us,” cried the men. “Last night as we slept, a band of vicious armed bandits struck. They attacked us and took all we possessed. They killed every resident of the town and burned the houses. We alone escaped.
“How wondrous are Your ways, O L-rd; the very misfortunes that struck me were my salvation.
“Had I slept in the town I would have shared the terrible fate of those who lived here. Had not the wind extinguished my candle and the beasts devoured my animals, the robbers would have found me and killed me.

Make no mistake about it Ohio is on a tear. And there is even more good news for Ohioans to celebrate. Governor John R. Kasich recently announced that with the approval of several economic development projects, more jobs are coming to Ohio. The six economic development projects are a result of the culminated efforts of several state agencies working together for Ohioans.
The projects were made possible through a tax credit from the Ohio Tax Credit Authority (OTCA) that reviewed proposals from JobsOhio and its regional partners. This effort will see the creation of 1,318 new jobs and retain 1,354 jobs throughout the state. These jobs are expected to generate $63 million in additional payroll revenue and $47 million in new investments. Some of the companies that will be adding employees include Magretech in Belleview which expects to create 35 full-time positions, Spirex Corporation in Austintown Township with 143 full-time positions and Medpace in Cincinnatti with 650 full-time positions, to name a few.
Also, more than 1,000 new jobs are expected to be coming to Dayton. The Miami Valley has been posting impressive job numbers lately ratcheting the jobless rate in that area down a notch to 4.6 percent, according to the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services.
And it was the result of hard work between JobsOhio, Team NEO, the Greater Cleveland Partnership (GCP) and the City of Brecksville that helped to bring Pison Steam Solutions to Northeast Ohio. “We’re pleased to work with our regional and local partners in bringing this investment and job-creation project to Greater Cleveland,” said Joe Roman, GCP President and CEO. The research and manufacturing facility is expected to add 130 jobs over the next three years generating an $8.5 million annual payroll. Pison chose Northeast Ohio due in part to its proximity to customers and suppliers along with an attractive real estate opportunity. This combined with a skilled local workforce sealed the deal.
As impressive as these job additions are, there is much more that needs to be done. As of September 2016, the preliminary unemployment rate in Ohio is 4.8 percent, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This is up from 4.4 percent in October 2015, the lowest point of the year, but down from its highest point in June 2015 when the unemployment rate was 5.2 percent. “This illustrates the importance of the State of Ohio to continue working with local and regional leaders through public and private partnerships to bring jobs and prosperity to all corners of Ohio,” said Victor Bierman, Ohio lawyer and business expert.
When thinking about tourist destinations, Ohio may not immediately come to mind. But tourism is big business in Ohio and its growing. According to a report released by TourismOhio, Ohio has been seeing a steady rise in the number of visitors in the last five years. In 2015, the state welcomed more than 207 million visitors, a healthy 14.4 percent increase since 2011. This has propelled Ohio tourism into a $42 billion industry.
“The rise in tourism has helped to significantly improve economic conditions throughout the state,” noted Victor J. Bierman III, Ohio lawyer and business expert. In fact, tourism-related jobs make up significant numbers in Ohio’s job market. Research shows that there is one tourism-related job for every 13 salaried jobs in Ohio, says Christine Pleva, Lima/Allen County Convention and Visitors Bureau executive director. For instance, in 2014, there were 412,000 tourism related jobs and now, there are 420,000 jobs, based on a survey conducted by TourismOhio.
So what’s driving these impressive tourism numbers? It’s a combination of in-state travelers, corporate meetings and conventions as well as visitors from nearby states. There are also a number of highly rated attractions in Ohio that visitors want to see. The incredibly popular Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in downtown Cleveland is a top draw. And visitors from around the world come to ride some of the world’s tallest and thrilling roller coasters at Cedar Point.
Ohio also boasts a number of highly rated museums including Cincinnati Museum Center, which is located in a historic 1930s art deco building, and the world-renowned Cleveland Museum of Art, which was founded in 1916. Other places like Fountain Square (Cincinnati), Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Garden, Wright Brothers National Memorial, Stan Hywet Hall and Garden, and Hocking Hills State Park are also contributing to the rise in tourism.
Ohio visitors are big spenders. As an example, the roughly 20 percent of visitors who stay in Ohio on an overnight trip will spend $354 on average during their stay. Also, a recent TourismOhio survey discovered that over 70 percent of visitors are spending their money on “experiences” rather than on souvenirs.
In 2015, TourismOhio unveiled its new “Ohio. Find it here.” logo and slogan as part of its branding Ohio as a top tourist destination. Approximately, $6 million will be spent in 2016 to increase in-state tourism as well as attract visitors from nearby states.
It was Stipe Miocic, Cleveland-based mixed martial artist and UFC Heavyweight Champion, who first put the city of Cleveland on quite the roll. Born in Euclid, Ohio in 1982, his success in May 2016 was quickly followed by a host of fortunes from the Lake Erie Monsters, the Cavs, and most recently, the Cleveland Indians. With these successes the pressure is on for the Cleveland Browns this season. The team is young, probably younger than most opponents in the NFL, and this has made the expectation even higher.
Although the team is far from its peak the high expectations for Cleveland is enough to inject the motivation that will help propel the Browns to greater heights. According to Sashi Brown, executive vice president for the Cleveland Browns, it takes time to develop and start winning titles just like it took the Indians and even the Cavs. So, with hard work, good organization and, of course, motivation, the Browns will undoubtedly make it. But the team is so far 0-8 for the season. And with the season at its halfway mark, fans are hoping that they will turn things around soon.
The Browns hope that this pressure from the media and fans does not impact negatively on the players but rather the players become motivated by it. After all, there is nothing like the pressure of having won zero games. The players desperately want to win. They need a win. This season, the Browns added 14 players and went further to strategically sign veteran leaders through the free-agency period. Also, the team has an experienced head coach in Hue Jackson who is accustomed to working with young talents at the start of the season.
According to Jackson, there is no science in football; thus, every player should stay focused and the pressure around should not mess with their mindset. “They should strive to win every game and relieve some of the pressure emanating from the media and fans,” noted Victor Bierman, Ohio lawyer and business expert. The players understand their coach and know that it’s all about work once they step into the Cleveland Browns camp. With Jackson as their head coach and young talented players who are more than willing to deliver, the Browns have the tools to right the ship. At this point, fans are just hoping for a win.

Mr Sholto Stillingflat Bowles became the Polynesian Inspector for the district in September 1886 and had worked before that for two years under Mr Pennefather, at Ingham, when the districts were worked together.
In 1888 Mr Sholto Stillingflat Bowles, the Polynesian Inspector for the district, visited the plantations regularly to see how the boys were and thought they were pretty healthy. He also saw that the hospital requirements were always in accordance with the Act.
The men would receive their wages from their employer, and if they liked they deposited a portion of what they received into a Savings Bank but as they liked to receive the money themselves they would seldom send their money to the bank.
Sometimes they would deposit one-third with the Inspector though, especially a good many of the time-expired boys, to be banked.
If a kanaka died, and any money was due him, the money would be sent to the Inspector by the planter who would forward it to the officer-in-charge of the department, in Brisbane, and if there were any claims by relations the balance of the money in possession of the Minister, after paying all burial expenses, which amounted to 2l. 10s. 0d., were given to the relations, which was often the case.
Sometimes, but seldom there were complaints made of such applications being refused but, as a rule, if the claim was a good one, the relative claiming the money got it. The claim of a cousin was never recognized, only a brother, or a husband or wife or child. At one time boys used to come from the islands and say, “Brother ‘long ‘o me die; me want money,” but there was no relationship.
The department never had a case where the deceased said he wished a certain party to get his money when he died. The Inspector did send in claims from cousins, but they were refused. A Polynesian could not will his money to whom he chose – if the money was in his own hands he could, but not if it was in the hands of the Government, except in the case of relations.
There had never been an instance in which it had been refused to a near relative. But there was an unusual one Mr Bowles encountered when 10 pounds was deposited by a boy in Maryborough some years before. He himself tried to get it but it could not be traced. The Inspector thought there must have been some mistake in the spelling of the name of the boy and he could not do anything more than to forward his case to the department after he had gotten the history of the case as well as he possibly could.
If there were any complaints made by islanders of being over-worked or ill-treated they would complain to the Inspector during his visits and he would go out and inquire into the matter but there were not many.
There were only two complaints during the year and only two cases of ill-treatment in the past two years. One involved a boy refusing to carry logs and sleepers, which were not excessive in weight, but he used some very rude language to the white man, and the white man lost his temper and hit the boy hard. There was something to be said on both sides.
In each case of ill-treatment a conviction against the offender occurred, one an overseer and the other a ganger – both servants in employ. There was never a conviction against any employer of labour, who were most anxious that their kanakas should be properly protected. Employers never assisted the Inspector in his prosecutions as he did not want them involved.

In 1956, the state of New York named the sugar maple tree the state tree. Of the seven species of maple trees, the sugar maple is the most abundant in the state. Maple syrup is made from the sugary sap of sugar maple trees. The tree is found throughout New England and in states surrounding the Great Lakes, as well as in many areas in Canada (hence the maple leaf on the Canadian flag).
The average sugar maple tree grows from 70 to 90 feet tall, with a trunk approximately two to three feet in diameter. Sunlight exposure affects the growth of the tree's crown. Sugar maples grown in direct sunlight have canopy spreads 60 to 80 feet in diameter. Those grown in forests, where there is shade and heavily filtered sunlight, have crowns that are narrow and tapered upward.
According to the Cornell Sugar Maple Research & Extension Program, the largest specimen of the sugar maple tree was reported near Bethany, West Virginia. That tree was 110 feet tall, with a trunk diameter of 5.6 feet and a crown spread 75 feet across.
The leaves of the sugar maple tree are symmetrical, with the line of symmetry running down the center vein. Each leaf measures three to six inches in length, with five pointed lobes. The leaves are dark green on top, with lighter green undersides. The veins are on the upper, dark green side. The sugar maple leaf is featured on the Canadian flag.
The sugar maple tree produces blossoms in the spring. The blossoms are light greenish-yellow. The flowers grow in clusters that measure one to two and a half inches long. The flowers of the sugar maple tree contain both male and female parts on the same tree.
All maple trees produce fruits called "samaras." The sugar maple tree produces samaras in sets that are connected together. These fruits are referred to as "double samaras." The double samaras are oval-shaped fruits with attached "wings." The double samaras are sometimes called "double winged samaras" because of the wing-like appendages.
The bark on young sugar maple trees is dark gray in color. The bark turns dark brown as the tree gets older and develops vertical grooves along the length of the trunk. These long plates of bark curl outward, and peel off--from the top or the bottom edge--as the tree matures.
How Much Maple Syrup Does a Tree Produce?

Discussion in 'Jailbreaks and iOS Hacks' started by oldmankit, Sep 24, 2012.
I read a bit about how cool swype is and that it was ported to iOS. I tried two Cydia repos, but neither responded. Has development for this rather cool thing ceased?
works. I can't believe that the final forward slash is actually necessary.
OMG.... This could be the one that everyone's been looking for!
It's not perfect yet and one of the things they need to add to the next update is to accurately do the auto space after each word but definitely one of the nicest tweaks I've found! Thank you for sharing!
Was pretty excited to try this out. Sadly it seems to change the normal typing. Created all sorts of spelling errors that were not typed out by me.
I think maybe it was swiping between close characters while typing. Whatever the problem, it was so bad I had to uninstall.
Repo does work & cool concept if can get it going correctly.
The concept is great but it is far from working smoothly yet, I agree with the poster above. It needs some work when not swyping and manually typing with it on is impossible.
I had to remove it.
I've installed this yesterday and I'm not seeing the issue when typing manual.
The issue that I'm seeing is that when I use just 1 character whether its a letter or number, it doesnt do the auto spacing. I find it deleting the character, retyping it and click on the space bar manually.
Wynd was on a great path when he started porting Swype. I've used this tweak countless times. Love the progress so far. However, I hate that it's not entirely bug free and it hasn't been updated.
I'm not even sure he is still working on it or not. I would love to see a complete, working port finished.

ExacTax was founded in 1989 on the philosophy that there is a need for an easier way to process tax returns and receive a fully computerized return with all the features and capabilities that you need for complex as well as simple tax situations.
Here at ExacTax, it is our goal to provide you with the most responsive service in the industry and the most efficient tax software for professional accountants and tax preparers. This individual and business tax software allows you to save time and complete more tax returns.
We offer a highly reliable, "signature ready" return that has the filing envelopes and W-2s attached. In working with the preparer, we can provide the service that best meets your needs.
ExacTax Service remains the choice of many successful tax preparers who find ExacTax's tax preparation software "Remote Data Entry" and Full Service Bureau processing fit their needs. It's not just a matter of convenience. It's a matter of efficiency for preparers who prefer to let ExacTax professionals and their computers handle tax calculations.
Our customers want to keep their businesses focused on tax returns, not on the collating, copying, printing or stapling required by an in-house system. While many preparers automatically assume that in-house software provides a less expensive system, savings can often prove illusory. Tax preparers often overestimate the savings they achieve by using in-house software. The true costs of in-house software include the time to learn an in-house system, computer hardware and software, laser printers, supplies, and office space for the computer systems as well as staff to enter data.
ExacTax full service bureau makes data gathering quicker for the preparer because our design of forms reduces both interview time and the number of input pages. Of course, one of the greatest concerns any preparer has in turning data over to another party is ensuring that the data is handled accurately. After input forms are received by ExacTax, our staff reviews the input, enters the data and then the data goes through a verification process to ensure accuracy. Key areas of the printed return are also checked by internal diagnostics and reviewed by Quality Control personnel.
ExacTax offers E-File for 1040 and business entities.
To help preparers use ExacTax products more easily, our company provides free training workshops, and it also provides toll-free customer support year around.

Using landmarks: traditional technique, which tends to require manual intervention: ``Spots all look the same'' to the machine.
Optical flow: good for smooth images and smooth flows, but rather sensitive to these assumptions.
Correlation: good general method which avoids assumptions in optical flow.
The last two methods require some knowledge of the scale of the image features of interest and the scale of the displacements likely to be encountered. Both vary considerably, not only between different types of image, but even within pairs of images.

Corporate compliance requires adhering to policies, procedure, rules, regulations, laws, and standards which are established to protect your business, employees, stakeholders and all others involved in the organization. Right from obeying safety guidelines, to following the standards for payment of wages an organization must comply with all the local, state and federal laws at all the times.
Pertaining to the laws and standards and monitoring the compliance of the organization to enhance accountability and transparency, evolved as a major concern for Leaders. Monitoring responsibility not only refers to continuously observing potential violations but also includes over sighting possible compliance violations. Since the concept of compliance is a complex matrix, thus approaches related to process monitoring are quite complicated to identify. Monitoring the compliance of business processes with relevant regulations, constraints, and rules during runtime has evolved as a major concern in practice.
The cost of non-compliance and monetary fines have been continuously increasing in the past few years. However, leaders are getting impatient as these consequences would affect the organization in many ways. Increased complexity, dynamic changes, and individuals being held personally accountable are all set to continue because of continuous compliance failures.
The question might arise Why statutory compliance is required. It is required to comply with internal and external audits, laws and regulatory bodies to avoid legal consequences. Financial penalties and imprisonment are critical to ignore. It also degrades the brand value and equity thus hampering the reputation resulting to permanent shutdown. Advanced and automation technology driven solutions have come into picture to protect organizations from Non-Compliance.
The requirements and frameworks can be complex, and leaders and managers may not always be fully accustomed/updated about the latest rules and regulations.
Moreover, due to the numerous government guidelines for compliance, it can be bumped for organizations to find themselves in violation, leaving their companies vulnerable to penalties and even shut down. Having an inside out understanding of corporate compliance is crucial to safeguard your business from arriving danger of non-compliances.
The key benefits of using GRC SaaS such as VComply and technology driven process to exhibit business risk and ensure global expansion. It is real time, and cloud-based which helps in more transparency and accountability thus enhances the control and visibility. Alerts, notifications and escalations help to tackle with proactive business risks. Interactive compliance center also helps in changing priorities and delegating activities. Intelligent functionalities in the dashboard, analytics involved in alerts and mitigating risk secures the process furthermore.
After all ignorance of the law is the worst possible defense mechanism in case of compliances, and doing so with traditional structure is making deep holes in the pocket and adds risk.

NOTICE DATE & LOCATION CHANGE!
Everyone Welcome to Attend at No Charge!
Join us for our first meeting event of 2018 at a new location and a new date, with an exciting message. Our special guest speaker will be Linda Dana, and she will be sharing one of her best kept secrets of her success, Outsourcing. Outsourcing is when you contract specific business functions to an outside third party. It is vital because it allows you to focus on the tasks that require your highest and best skills and leaves the minutia of regular and daily basic business operations to others.
In essence, you are able to have others (for very low $$) do things that are not the highest and best use of your time. Now, what does Linda have Outsourced you may be asking. Linda will share the TOP 8 things she has outsourced, but the trick is, you have to be at City Tavern located at 501 Crossroads Plaza, Ft. Mill, SC at 6:30PM on Tues. January 30th, to find out what they are.
SIN is hosted by Jeffrey Richman. Jeffrey has been in the world of real estate investing since 1994. Starting with the buying and rehabbing of properties, he quickly moved into other areas of property investing. His specialty is Subject To and Virtual Wholesaling.

To date, he has done well over 200 transactions, which include wholesaling, assignment of contracts, Subject To (the art of buying property with little or no money), Lease / Options or Rent-To-Own (depending on the price point of the property), owner financing, pre-foreclosure, and foreclosures, short sales and more.
You may or may not have heard about tax sales before, and if you have, you probably heard all the wrong things. Tom DiAgostino will set the record straight for you all on Wednesday, January 24th at 7:00PM at the Beginning Investors Group Online.

You may find yourself wanting to purchase a house for investment purposes. If you follow a traditional method, which is, call a realtor, prepare your cred score, come up with 20% down, and have a bank finance the rest, you will likely find yourself out of money quickly, and it will be years before you could purchase another house to add to your portfolio.
What if there were a way, or several, that could bypass the steps written above, and put you on a faster track of purchasing more houses?
Does this seem like something you would be interested in? Do you know what to do or how to get started? If you want to know what the answer is, please RSVP and join us at the Charlotte REIA Main Monthly Meeting, on Thursday, December 7th at 6:30PM. Charlotte REIA is presenting J. (James) Parker, Charlotte's own Professional Investor. J. has 20+ years of real estate experience. His chosen topics of discussion are thought provoking and engaging.

Savvy Investor Networking (SIN) is a brand new Charlotte REIA Networking and Educational Subgroup that meets on Monday, October 30th (Last Monday's') from 6:30PM to 9:30PM at Beef O'Brady's located at 940 Market St in Fort Mill, SC right off of I-77's Exit 85. The entire purpose of Savvy Investor Networking is to bring the Charlotte area's real estate investors together in a fun, festive environment where we can network, discuss real estate opportunities, share resources, brainstorm ideas, ask questions, get answers and figure out additional ways to support one another, our community and all make more money.
This month, SIN Charlotte will have as our guest speaker, Chuck Phillips of CRS Data.
Property Information is probably one of the most Important Pieces of information an investor can use. You need a program that can be used to find Who Owns the Property, Are they an Owner or Renter, Past Sales History, Taxes, Mortgage History, Building Characteristics, and the ability to develop the Market Value or ARV. From this based on the cost you can then develop your Exit Strategy – Buy to Flip or Buy to Hold.
Yes, Public records generally are available from most courthouses. There you can find out who owns a home based on the address, past sales, taxes, and building characteristics that are found on the Tax Card the assessor uses to assess taxes. However, Mortgage History and Comparable Sales are not available. For this you need a program that can take past sales and calculate using algorithms to calculate a MV or ARV. CRS Data can help better your investing finding an MV or ARV.

"What is Virtual Wholesaling"? It is when you buy and sell properties at wholesale prices, often sight unseen, from long-distances using computers, tablets, smart phones, online references along with local help when you can get it.
The big advantage of Virtual Wholesaling is that the investor can spread their efforts across multiple markets, which can maximize their potential return on investment, especially if they are operating in a hot, crowded market area.
Does this seem like something you would be interested in? Do you know what to do or how to get started? Whatever you answer is, please RSVP and join us at the Charlotte REIA Main Monthly Meeting, on Thursday, November 2nd at 6:30PM we will have as our special guest speaker, Jeffrey Richman, from Rock Hill, who will show you the in's and out's of Virtual Wholesaling!

Real Estate Investing is about building WEALTH.
At the Charlotte REIA Main Monthly Meeting, on Thursday, October 5th at 6:30PM you will be Introduced to several effective strategies that you can use to make an influx of CASH that will allow you to build a phenomenal income. This is a continuation of our September 7th event.
NOTICE! We're not talking about becoming a real estate agent here. We're talking about pulling out the stops, getting creative, and making the big bucks. There are many ways to make money on properties that are beautiful and properties that are run-down. There are different strategies you would use in a buyers' market and a sellers' market, in a high-appreciation market and one on a plateau. The better you understand each strategy introduced below, the more deals you'll be able to find and the more money you will make on each deal.
Which strategy should I choose & when?
The right strategy depends on who you are and your business model is. Some strategies require a lot of time, more labor intensive, money, or education and experience. Some do not. Do you work with your hands? Are you technically inclined? Are you a people person?
Understanding each strategy will provide you with what each strategy requires, and then you can dig down into those that seem best suited to your skills and abilities.
If you want to learn how to grow your business exponentially,without the head and heart aches that could come along with it, please RSVP for Charlotte REIA's Main Monthly Meeting,and join us on Thursday, October 5th at 6:30PM at Raintree Country Club located at 8600 Raintree Ln in Charlotte NC!
Have you ever watched those tv programs that show couples flipping properties for tens of thousands of dollars and wished you could do that? Do you wish that you could find something that could provide you with additional income that would make your life better? Well guess what. Real estate might be your answer and it’s easier than you think. Most people think you have to have lots of money or good cred to buy real estate. Some people even think you have to be really smart. The truth is NONE of this is true! Don’t get me wrong, having any and all of those things are helpful but definitely not needed. In fact, most of the time I prefer to teach people with none of those things because then you can’t use them as a crutch!
This month on the BIGO broadcast, I will be showing you how to make money without any of your own money or cred. All you will need is your willingness to learn and your ability to apply simple techniques. I will show you how to identify a property, put it under contract and simply assign that contract to someone else for a fee. I will also show you how to buy properties where the homeowner just deeds over the property to you and you become the owner. Can you imagine buying properties where you never have to use your cred and never have to go to the bank ever again. Would you like to buy a new home to live in but can’t afford the down payment? That's no problem, I'll show you how.
If you’ve ever said these words to yourself, “ I wish I could afford that...” then you need to be on this broadcast. This could be the most important session you go to your whole life. There are two types of people out there in this world. Those that “Dream” and those that “Do.” Which do you want to be? Be on this month's broadcast on Wednesday September 27th @ 7PM ET and let me change the statement from “I wish I could afford that...” to “How can I afford that?” Let me leave you with this thought. “ If you don’t build your dream, someone will hire you to build theirs”. Is that what you want? RSVP NOW!
The Beginning Investors Group Online ( The “BIG O” or BIGO) is an ONLINE educational group for new investors who are just getting started in real estate investing as well as “new again” real estate investors who’ve taken a few years off and are looking to get back in the game. We will be bringing in local and national real estate experts to teach new investors how to survive and thrive in our ever changing economy and real estate market. The entire purpose of this group is to help new investors get their first deal and help new again investors get their next deal. The Beginning Investors Group Online meets on the 4th Wednesday of each month from 7:00 PM ET to 9:00 PM on GoToWebinar. The main presentation will start at 7:00 PM ET and go to approximately 8:30 to 9:00 PM.
TO ATTEND ONLINE: 7:00PM Start Time. To attend the Beginning Investors Group Online via your PC, smart phone or tablet, Register Here for the Broadcast on GoToWebinar.com and you will be emailed login instructions for the event.

The former French-trained gelding was having his first run for Lambourn handler Joe Tuite, who admitted he almost quit the game two years ago as he had a stable of sick horses and just a handful of winners.
Described as "delicate" by Tuite, Litigant (33-1) - a winner on All-Weather Championships Finals Day at Lingfield last year when with Seamus Durack - had to be as strong as an ox to claim one of Europe's richest and most prized handicaps.
After giving jockey Oisin Murphy a scare at the stalls, the seven-year-old stormed to the head of affairs after Fields Of Athenry had continued the hectic gallop earlier set by John Reel.
Running on strongly, Litigant had a length and a half in hand of the Willie Mullins-trained Wicklow Brave, with Suegioo another neck away in third and Toe The Line fourth.
Murphy said: "I take my hat off to Joe Tuite, because I worked this horse a few times and he wouldn't work to 60.
"But Joe said keep the faith, with a bit of ease in the ground he's a different horse - I must say he's bolted up today.
"They went a good gallop, but he's got enough class. In fairness to George Baker, he told me this is a Group horse, obviously having had so few runs and been off for so long it's hard to see it but he was proved right."
Tuite, former assistant to Mick Channon, said: "That was superb. I'm speechless. It's a marvellous team performance.
"They've worked unbelievably hard to get this horse back to the track. He's very delicate.
"We've had a few quid on and we've dreamed it. We know he's very good when he comes right.
"Two years ago I nearly walked away. I had sick horses and had just five winners in my third season. I was very close to packing it in. Horses can do that to you sometimes, but we had faith. We tried to do it right.
"We had a good year last year and we nearly won the Super Sprint this year, but I'll take this instead. You go in the history books if you win this. This is a legends race and he's won it from nearly 500 days off the track."
He went on: "He's a very good horse and has only been beaten twice in his career.
"I'm a lucky man that Tony (Byrne) sent this horse to me.
"We've got to look at the two-miler on Champions Day at Ascot now."
Proud owner Byrne said: "Two furlongs out I knew we'd got it. To bring him back after 491 days off to win this is some achievement."
For his troubles, Murphy picked up a four-day ban (September 6-9) for using his whip above the permitted level, while Wicklow Brave's rider Jack Kennedy got nine days (September 5-13) for a similar offence. He was also fined £350.
Mullins said: "I was a bit disappointed with Clondaw Warrior (12th). He's had a lot of racing and maybe it's taken its toll.
"But Wicklow Brave ran a cracker. I don't know what we'll do next.
"We'll go home and think about it."

This might be more along the lines of what the Bank of England does with its quarterly inflation report.
This will become most apparent at the news conferences, now to be held after each Federal Open Market Committee meeting, where chairman Jerome Powell is asked to opine on inherently tricky and uncertain policy decisions, options and outlooks.
For reasons largely outside its control, the Federal Reserve is now being widely blamed for fueling financial market instability and risking derailment of the US economy. This is quite a contrast from just a few month ago, when it was still being feted by many for its role as an active and effective repressor of financial market volatility. It is probably only a matter of time until the European Central Bank finds itself in a similar, perhaps tougher position. The reality is both central banks have entered a new, more uncertain phase that is likely to last for some time, requiring more skillful policy navigation and communication, and some operational changes.
Coming out of the 2008 global financial crisis, central banks went out of their way to boost asset prices as a means of supporting the economy. They suppressed volatility by driving down interest rates; buying huge amounts of debt securities and housing them securely on their balance sheets; and, when a bout of volatility occurred, being quick to reassure markets of their broad and consistent support. This unprecedented phase of central banking had its natural limits.
As detailed in my 2016 book, the benefits of buying time for the economy to heal came with costs and unintended consequences. Accordingly, when the conditions to normalise policy arose, the Fed pivoted by stopping its asset-purchase program, hiking interest rates nine times and slowly reducing its balance sheet. The ECB followed with a considerable lag. After tapering its asset-purchase program during the past few months, it will halt it at the end of this year and may start raising rates during the summer.
But what started out as a relatively smooth and orderly process has become more problematic—especially for the Fed, which is being accused of fueling financial volatility and risking the country’s economic well-being.
Stock markets are experiencing wild intraday swings, while falling prices have delivered one of the worse Decembers ever for equities. With that, the measure of household consumer sentiment reported last week came in below consensus forecasts, at the same time that consumer confidence expectations also tumbled. Yet much of the volatility of recent weeks is due to factors outside the Fed’s control. They include: A slower global expansion as both Europe and China struggle to implement of pro-growth policies; Other economic concerns, from the partial shutdown of the federal government to trade policy as markets wait to see which concessions China will offer the U.S. to end the trade war between the two countries; Asset prices that, for years, were decoupled from fundamentals amid ample and predictable liquidity; and The proliferation of passive investing, computer trading and exchange-traded funds, including some that promised liquidity in inherently less liquid asset classes, potentially amplifying the risk of contagion both on the way up and on the way down.
It is only a matter of time until the spot light also shines on the ECB. Because its normalisation process is now focused on balance-sheet policy rather than the more visible interest-rate moves, it hasn’t yet attracted the same attention as the Fed. Yet this process faces many more questions on account of the slow growth in the euro zone, some weaknesses in the region’s banking system, pockets of excessive indebtedness and political gridlock that limits needed structural and fiscal reforms. Against that backdrop, the risk has risen that volatility could undermine the global economy, and that some investors may lose confidence in the orderly functioning of financial markets. Naturally, this is obscuring the benefits of a long-due transition to a less distorted financial regime that, otherwise, would have threatened much larger economic damage down the road.
Whichever way you look at it, central banks will be exposed to more criticism from politicians, market participants and analysts. Having said that, there are a few things they could do. For example, in the case of the Fed, consideration could be given to the following steps, including in the context of the review of communications practices that Powell has already launched: Conveying more consistently and credibly that policy makers are sensitive to the risk of spillbacks from a weakening global economy and market disruptions; signaling the possibility that the automatic pilot governing its balance-sheet reduction is subject to review; and phasing out the blue dot plot that shows policy makers’ individual expectations for future rate increase in favor of communications that portray the range of possible outcomes. This might be more along the lines of what the Bank of England does with its quarterly inflation report.

Is anybody doing a fantasy football league this year for the forum?
Seems the Rams/Cowboys second joint practice was called early after 3 fights in 20 minutes. Randy Gregory and Tyler Patmon were pushing guys around after the play was over starting things. Oh well Rams travel back to St Louis and the practices from here on out are closed to the public.
Not sure if any of you guys are familiar with Sporcle but it's a fun site where you can play trivia games. Anyway, I made a quiz on there where you have to name the receivers who have caught TDs from Marc Bulger. Feel free to give it a play.
Havent been here in a while but where my other Yeezy stan at?!?!?! We eating bruh!
So weird seeing the subforum called Los Angeles Rams now instead of St Louis.
Checking in to say that I hate Stan Kroenke and hate the Rams now.
I'm sure we all feel so much better knowing this.
Like this thread was even active to begin with.
Just out of curiosity...has anyone here ever dined at Niche?
I'm going to regret not going to that Legends of the Dome game. It looked like so much fun.
For those that don't know, Isaac Bruce set up an event in St. Louis at the Dome where fans could watch their favorite players one last time. In a flag football game. There was a ton of guys there from the SB team.
Along with a few others were there. Fans got to get on the field and meet their favorite players. Sounded like an awesome event.
Randy K: In 2002 when you took over as starter for the Rams did you realize how good this offense was?
Bulger: Yeah I think so. Because the previous year I had been cut so I played a lot of Fantasy football, and Isaac Bruce was my 1st round pick.
The Game has a new diss track out against meek mill and he tries to rep the Rams being back in LA but he calls Jared Goff "Jeff Goff". Come on man!
Hey, El Rammy... remember this?
In the College Football Forum we are doing a bowl pick em.
everyone is more than welcome to join, just make your entry name your FF username.
Hey has anyone heard of this new Sports app Fire Fan?
My buddy had me download it yesterday and it was blast . Made the Rams game less painful lol.
they have pregame questions and then live game questions before each drive. If anyone is interested use promotional code Blaze2016 to receive free tokens. I actually won the league It was in only 5 people but what the hey hahaha.
Maybe me or someone on here could start a league and us Rams fans could compete against each other.

Already in the oldest Czech St Wenceslas legend we read that princess Ludmila made her grandson Wenceslas study Slavonic books. Hellich chose as the setting for this scene the castle Tetín on the river Berounka, with a view of the Tetín church and of the surrounding country. The painting bears testimony to the influence of old Italian masters, above all of Raphael, whom Hellich studied in Rome, as well as to his interest in history, art history and archeology.

FARMING HAS A HUGE IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT. ENTER CARBON TRAPPING.
Globally, our food system is thought to account for as much as a third of all greenhouse gas emissions, making it a huge contributor to the effects of climate change. However, there are hopes that the agriculture industry could also be a part of the solution. A paper published in Scientific Reports suggests that the planet’s farmland soil has unrealized carbon trapping potential, and could be used to remove as much carbon from the atmosphere as the transport industry emits.

This scarf is so classic, so I am hoping it will be one of your easy go-to projects. I think because buffalo plaid is so timeless, this pattern will be great for men, women, teens… everyone.
And because it’s not an infinity (you can find my plaid infinity scarf here) it will be a more versatile finished item for your gift list or crochet shop. It’s also a super easy pattern to modify; if you don’t want to use bulky yarn, you can make this scarf with worsted yarn simply and easily. Be sure to check the pattern notes for guidance on how to do this.
Sizing – You can adjust the sizing of this scarf by work more or fewer stitches on the foundation. (This is especially helpful if you decide to use different yarn or different size hook) The count will be in multiples of 4 or 8, as this scarf is worked in a 4×2 plaid stitch (each color block will be 4 dc wide and 2 rows tall).
If you decide to change the count, please note if you work your foundation in a multiple of 4 (instead of a multiple of 8), you may end row 2 on a different color, so disregard the color instructions and work the color you need for your own plaid color work.
This scarf is also worked in a 4-color plaid, but if you prefer three colors, simply use the same mid color for both rows instead of alternating between 2 different mid colors.
This scarf is worked lengthwise.
3. Continuing with Cobblestone Heather, Ch 2. Dc in same st. Dc in next 3 sts. Change to black. Alternate between Black and Cobblestone Heather every 4 sts (your colors should line up with pervious row)until the end of the row. Turn. (176 sts) Don’t cut yarn.
Ch 2. Dc in same st. Dc in next 3 sts. Change to White. Alternate between Dove Heather and White every 4 sts, until the end of the row. Turn.
5. Continuing with White, Ch 1. Dc in same st. Dc in next 3 sts. Change to Dove Heather. Alternate between White and Dove Heather every 4 sts (your colors should line up with previous row) until the end of the row. Turn.
6. – 9. Repeat rows 2 – 5 respectively. When you need the colors, simply pull them up from where you left them. You can cover these yarns with fringe, tassels or a row of sc later.
10. Pull up black. Ch 1. Sc in each st across the top.
You can either work a round of sc all around the scarf, or just across the ends (if you are using Brava Bulky, you will not have enough black to do an additional round all the way around, so use Dove Heather or White).
For a classic look, you can also hide the raw ends with fringe or tassels. I did three lengths of yarn for each fringe to make it look more full.
I’m sure you can think of a few people who would love rocking this scarf!
Hi Bethany, if I wanted to do this width way instead of length, would it still be multiples of 8?
If I want to use green and mint what soul do my other 2 colors be ?
I would think white or black?
If I am using #4 yarn should I use a K hook or should I still use the N hook?
You can use either, just work the chain to the appropriate length, making sure it’s in multiples of 6.
Love this scarf! Thanks for sharing!
do you cut the yarn with each color change?
How exciting to realize it is someone who used to be my neighbor!
Haha! I don’t know how exciting it is, LOL! Do you remember which blog? I would like to give them a “thank you”!
I am enjoying your emails, blog and Facebook page so much! I love this scarf and I am going to try to make it for my son for Christmas. So many projects, so little time!!
Thank you so much Beth! He will love it!
As the pattern is written, what size will it be? I am assuming you can make it as wide as you want, but how long would it be? Thanks! Like it a lot!
Same as the foundation, about 65″long. Like you said you can make it as wide as you would like, but mine was about 6″ wide.
Thanks for your reply. Sounds perfect. I particularly like the 6″ wide. I have a short neck and cannot wear those super wide scarves.
OMG I love your Greyscale Plaid Scarf. Thank you so much for the free pattern. It’s beautiful.
Thank you! I’ve had a ton of scarf requests but only offered infinity scarves in plaid!
We will NOT tire of plaid, and we will never tire of your plaid patterns. Another winner. As I like scarves a bit wider, I will add one more black and grey “row” (column?) to widen it a bit, and thanks to your teaching skills, I’ll have no trouble doing that. :) Thank you!
Thank you so much Judy! I thought about doing another row as well, but this is a gift for someone and I wasn’t sure how wide to make it for a man. I am a bit weird, haha!

I answered a question on friendships with people of opposite philosophy on 21 August 2011. You can listen to or download the podcast of just this question below – or check out the whole episode of Philosophy in Action Radio.
How can I maintain my integrity in friendships with people of opposite philosophic views? I struggle to keep good relations with family and friends who support our current political system in which some people are helped at the expense of others, which I regard as slavery. They support ObamaCare, EPA restrictions, and welfare programs. Through years of caring discussions, I realize that they do not hold the individual as sacred but instead focus on what's best for "the group." At this point, I often feel more pain than pleasure being with them, even though we have many other values in common, yet I hate to cut them off. How can I maintain good relationships with them – or should I stop trying?
My Answer, In Brief: In your relationships with people of mixed values, seek to delimit the interactions so that you can enjoy what the other person has to offer – and leave the rest.

All our Sober Coaches and Staff are Addiction Specialists.
Summer Special: Intervention anywhere in California, for $800 plus travel.
Without some form of an intervention, most addicts are doomed to repeat an ever-worsening cycle. Although in some cases, the heartfelt pleas of the family are enough for the addict to realize that he/she needs to change.
What makes Intervention Services, Inc. so unique?
We focus on the long-term.
Looking beyond the short-term goals of “getting the addict to treatment” our attitude is that a professional intervention is not truly over until your loved one gets at least one year of continuous sobriety.
A professional intervention should not end when your loved one agrees to go to treatment. To help them and the family achieve their first year in sobriety, we offer each family member lifetime consultation after the intervention, during treatment, and in the weeks, months and years after treatment.
What this means is that no stone is unturned and all bases are covered. Focusing on the addict, the family and the interwoven dynamics in between, we have a methodology that works to allow the addict to see things differently and then willingly enter treatment.
Most families have suffered financially from the ruin brought upon by the drug and alcohol use of the addict, and we at Intervention Services have done everything possible to bring our overhead down in order to deliver far more service for a far less cost. Not only are we one of the least expensive providers, but we are also one of the most heavily trained, experienced and comprehensive intervention services in current use.

A vast majority of people today suffer from over usage of Prescription Drugs. The long term use of these drugs will eventually lead to a situation where an Intervention would be needed and a controlled Detox off of the drugs will be needed to correct the problem. InterventionOrangeCounty can help with this situation regardless of your age and or amount of usage. A Medical Detoxification Doctor will be needed after a plan of action is determined. The Doctor will evaluate the situation to determine what is needed to get through the withdrawal symptoms. The Detox can be mild in some cases but not until the Doctor makes his evaluation. Other extreme cases may be more severe and life-threatening and the withdrawal symptoms could be very serious. If you have a problem and long term usage on Prescription Drugs and would like to talk to one of our Counselors / Intake personnel.
Addiction to prescription drugs can ruin anyone’s life and it may create severe damage to yourself and problems among your family members and possibly your employment. It is an illness of the mind and body but the good news is it can be treated. Even though the body becomes dependent on the drugs (some examples are Vicodin or OxyContin, Xanax or Valium ). Many people cannot stop and without being aware of an existing problem they get caught up in a day to day viscous cycle. But deep down inside they know they have a problem and should seek help so they can to quit.
For more information and to talk to one of our Intervention Counselors / Intake specialists.

The Kingsport Renaissance Arts Center is a facility which serves the community as a center for the arts and senior citizen’s activities, and as a facility for business meetings, parties, receptions, classes, showers, and day-long seminars with breakout rooms. It is managed by the City of Kingsport’s Office of Cultural Arts. The facility includes a 350-seat theatre, three-story sky lit atrium, art gallery, gymnasium, meeting rooms and offices. The Kingsport Renaissance Center, formerly the John Sevier School, was renovated in 1991 and now stands as one of Kingsport’s most prominent landmarks. It is an architect’s masterpiece and stands as a constant reminder of Kingsport’s history and as a reality of creative dreams. The Renaissance Center’s diversity makes it unique and truly a model that sets renovation standards by which all others can be measured. Theatrical performances and concerts are scheduled in the 350-seat theatre throughout the year. The theatre is available for meetings and seminars and is an ideal facility for 200 people, with nearby breakout rooms, suitable for all day functions with or without meals.
A variety of rooms are available for rent as well as a three-story atrium that seats 50 on each level. The atrium is ideal for a registration and refreshment area for up to 200 people. This arrangement is ideal to incorporate along with the use of the theatre, room 239, room 310, and/or the art gallery. The three levels of the sky lit atrium lend themselves to various forms of gatherings. You may also want to provide refreshments for your event, either by bringing your own food or making arrangements with your favorite caterer.

I write about entrepreneurship and skills that entrepreneurs need.
In 2018 I find myself starting on the 4th version of myself as a UBC volunteer. I’ve been “tinkering” with a “Meditation, Mindfulness, and Career Exploration” workshop I call “Mind 2018“.
Here are the previous roles I’ve played. Version 1 – Around 2003 I was a volunteer for “Entrepreneurship” at the UBC MBA school and UBC Engineering Physics, Version 2 – from 2008 to 2012 I taught an entrepreneurship class in the UBC MBA program, and Version 3 — from 2012 to 2017 I moved to e@UBC to work on the experiential entrepreneurship programs named “Lean Launch Pads”.
I’ve been part of the entrepreneurship eco-system at UBC for over 15 years. I’ve taught Lean LaunchPad (LLP) workshops with e@UBC (@ubcentrepreneur), genomics.e@UBC (@UBC_GenEnt), and Ecoscope. I was an Entrepreneur-in-Residence that mentors teams pre & post LLP workshops. The program has had more than 200 teams go through the LLP workshops.
Way back in 2008, I started teaching Steve Blank’s “Customer Development” in UBC’s MBA Module program because I felt that it was very close to my startup experience at PMC-Sierra and Packet Engines. It has been amazing that the idea of “Customer Development” has grown to become a world wide movement.
On the Social Entrepreneurship front — I’m very excited that the UBC Sauder Social Entrepreneurship (@UBC_SSE) initiative has been experimenting with “Lean Startup” techniques. Since the summer of 2014 they’ve used the Business Model Canvas in Kenya with great success.
I also have a close affiliation with UBC Engineering Physics. I’m on the “Board of Studies” and support entrepreneurship.
A big “Thank You” to PMC-Sierra and UBC for providing opportunities for me in the last two decades. In 2001 I contracted CFIDs and have to be very careful with my time and energy. That’s why you’ll find that my recent experiences are volunteer activities, part-time and short courses. This journey through CFIDs is the “Why” I learned the meditation and mindfulness skills that I’m teaching in 2018.
In the ’90s I was fortunate to be an early employee at PMC-Sierra (PMCS) and at Packet Engines. I experienced a lot in those years and learned a little.
I see you have scheduled chats. How far ahead does the appointment book run? It would be good to see you. Travel & sheer terror does fill my calendar but if you can find a hole, so can I.
barry .. did u get my e-mail?

The acclaimed PS4 exclusive Bloodborne is receiving its own comic series on February 2018, and today we have received a first look at the four collectible covers and a preview of the art from the first issue. From this first look its fair to say the comic will stay faifthul to the dark and violent tone of the game, with plenty of underworld creatures and gruesome scenes to be spotted in its pages.
The series is called Bloodborne: The Death of Sleep, and it follows an unnamed Hunter as he explores the city of Yharnam. It is still not known whether the comic takes place at some point of the official timeline of the game. The Death of Sleep will be published by Titan Comics, which are also in charge of the tie-in comics based on The Evil Within 2, Wolfenstein 2 and Dishonored: Death of the Outsider.
Bloodborne: The Death of Sleep will be released on February 2018. Take a look at more of the artwork below.

The Rapid Case Ascertainment Core at UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center provides support to the N.C. Central Cancer Registry and local hospitals for rapid case ascertainment and facilitates cancer prevention and control research that requires early contact with patients. Dr. Andrew Olshan is the Faculty Director, and Mary Beth Bell is the Facility Director.
Most activities of the Rapid Case Ascertainment staff are based at the N.C. Central Cancer Registry in Raleigh, N.C.
The Core does not charge for its services. Users pay a per-case ascertainment fee ($15) directly to hospitals for pathology reports, as well as monetary support for RCA staff.
Rapid Case Ascertainment (RCA) is an acceleration of the North Carolina Central Cancer Registry’s (CCR) reporting process for quick identification of cancer patients throughout the state. Pathology reports are sent from hospitals/facilities within 1 month of diagnosis. The CCR and its ability to provide a RCA system has made N.C. a national leader in population-based cancer research. Without RCA, such research involving timely patient contact is not possible and peer reviewers and agencies may not fund.
Researchers contact RCA and the CCR to discuss their upcoming proposal or grant.
Individual projects receive IRB approval from their institution(s), and then approval from the CCR.
Registrars provide pathology reports, demographics and physician contact information of potentially eligible patients to RCA within 1 month of diagnosis.
RCA enters eligible patients’ data in an ACCESS database.
RCA mails a brochure outlining the CCR’s role and notification of possible contact by researchers to eligible patients.
and continue with their protocol administering in-home / telephone interviews, collecting specimens, etc.

Originally formed in 1985, Anatech started life as Imperial Orthoflex Manufacturing Ltd, a manufacturer of high quality custom-made orthopaedic bracing. Our founder, Jim Boyle’s background in custom made wetsuits was easily transitioned into the growing bracing market, catering to the aging, but active baby boomer generation. Jim listened carefully to customers and professionals and sought to understand what was needed in a good bracing line.
Our reputation for quality grew and in July 1987 a distribution division was created to promote our increasing range. In 1990 Anatech, Anatomical Technologies Inc. was incorporated. It was a more meaningful name aligned with a broader vision.
On a tight budget Jim worked to raise the company’s profile, which included attending industry tradeshows. There is a great story from those early days (still told today by those who were big in the sports medicine in the late 1980s). Jim and Les Pasko, our lone salesman, were attending Anatech’s first CASM show (Canadian Academy of Sports Medicine) being held at the Banff Springs Hotel during a very cold February. Jim and Les were the talk of the show - there was a buzz about our superior bracing line, but the bigger buzz was the talk about the two crazy guys in the trailer coming into the show, freshly showered straight from the campsite, in their business suits with frozen hair.
It was Jim’s enthusiasm to promote his company, and his drive to learn from the brilliant people he met, that have brought us to where we are today. His early focus on understanding customers’ needs has never been forgotten and has helped Anatech grow to become Canada’s leading distributor of sports medicine products.
Our customer base during the 90s and early 2000s was predominantly specialist sports medicine stores, orthotic and prosthetic facilities, as well as pharmacies and hospitals. This early focus on the medical sector led to a sixteen year partnership with W. L. Gore & Associates. From 1994 we helped to promote and distribute their Procel waterproof castliner throughout Canada and despite the high cost of this exceptional product, we enjoyed a successful and profitable relationship.
In December 2010 W. L. Gore decided to discontinue Procel. Despite being an excellent product, Procel did not fit into Gore’s strategic, long-term focus on the surgical markets. We worked diligently over the few months looking out for a line to replace the loss of Procel in our product range. Because of the strong customer relationships we had forged within the hospital sector we were approached by 3M with a proposal for Anatech to represent their Immobilization portfolio. It was the perfect fit for our sales force at the time; and there is no denying the timing was serendipitous.
In March 2012 Anatech lost its founder, Jim Boyle. It was a challenging period for his wife Lorna and his daughter, Karen Sabourin; who had both worked with Anatech for many years. Lorna joined the company two years after its inception and Karen since 1992.

I investigate the impact of changes in environment and climate on living organisms on various time scales, from millions of years to decades, with the common focal point of benthic foraminifera (eukaryotic unicellular organisms). Foraminifera live in salt or at least brackish water, so I concentrate on the oceans, from the deep sea up into tidal salt marshes. The deep sea is the largest habitat on Earth, supports a high diversity of organisms, but is one of the least known. I am interested in understanding the development of high-diversity deep-sea faunas through periods of major climate change and mass extinction, such as the mass extinction caused by meteorite impact at the end of the Cretaceous (65 million years ago), which did not affect benthic foraminifera significantly. I participated in Ocean Drilling Program Leg 208 in the South East Atlantic Ocean, studying causes and consequences of extreme warm climates on Earth, including the extinction of deep-sea benthic foraminifera at the end of the Paleocene (55 million years ago), linked to an early greenhouse episode. I also look at changes in deep-sea faunas during other periods of global change, such as the earliest Oligocene (~33.5 million years ago) when the Antarctic ice sheet originated, and am interested in possible links between glaciation and initiation of the AntArctic Circumpolar Current. I look into the climate swings of ice ages during the last few hundred thousands of years. Together with Joop Varekamp I work at the edge of the oceans in coastal salt marshes in Connecticut and New Jersey, trying to understand the ecology of salt marshes as well as rates of relative sea-level rise during the last 2000 years. We also cooperate in research on the changing environments and ecosystems in Long Island Sound, at time scales varying from the last 15,000 years to the time since European settlement and industrial revolution, and the eutrophication caused by human presence.

Zain Jawadd “Zayn” Malik was born January 12, 1993, in Bradford, England to an English mother and British-Pakistani father. After a pretty typical childhood, Malik, 17, auditioned as a solo candidate for the British version of The X Factor. At the beginning of his career, he wasn’t the total package (missing dancing ability) and didn’t qualify for the “Boys” category. But Simon Cowell, saw something in him and put Malik in One Direction, a group compromised of eliminated solo candidates. The group act came in third place and following The X Factor, One Direction signed a £2 million record contract with Syco Records.
Cougars rejoice! Malik dated fellow X Factor contestant, Rebecca Ferguson, who is six years his senior. It was only a 4 month stint, but long enough to strike hope into the hearts of late 20 somethings all over the world.
We’re not really sure how culturally rooted young Malik is, though rumor is, he has his grandfather’s name in Arabic tattooed on his chest. Known as the “mysterious, serious one”, only time will tell which direction Malik’s career takes.

Tallgrass Energy Partners LP has filed applications with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for the Cheyenne Connector Pipeline and the Cheyenne Hub Enhancement Project.
The Cheyenne Connector Pipeline Project consists of the construction a 70-mile, 36 inch-diameter pipeline that would transport natural gas from the DJ Basin into the Cheyenne Hub on the Rockies Express Pipeline, allowing shippers’ access to midwestern, Midcontinent and Gulf Coast markets. The Cheyenne Hub Enhancement Project includes adding 32,100 hp of compression by installing six booster units at Rockies Express Pipeline’s existing facility, increasing capacity by approximately 1,000,000 Dth/d.
Once completed, the projects would transport about 600,000 Dth/d into the Rockies Express Pipeline from processing plants in Weld County, Colorado and are supported by 10-year commitments from affiliates of Anadarko Petroleum Corp. and DCP Midstream LP.
Tallgrass is hoping to receive approval for both projects by February 2019, with an anticipated in-service date of October 2019.

Large sections of the world are deficient in soil phosphorus, especially those regions that have soils with a high potential for P-retention.
This study developed a global GIS database of inferred soil phosphorus retention potential as possible input for integrated model-based studies of environmental sustainability and agricultural production.
The study carried out by ISRIC in the framework of the project "Resource scarcity and distribution in a changing world" (BO-10-011-07) funded by the Netherlands Ministry of Economic Affairs, Agriculture and Innovation (ELI) and coordinated by the Business Unit Agrosystems Research (AGRO) of Plant Research International (PRI), Wageningen University and Research Centre.

When I was first discovering personal style, I was really into that whole matchy-matchy look. It's kind of embarrassing when I look back how much I matched. Which is why I tend to be more daring with color schemes now. But sometimes it's nice to fall back on old favorites.
Oh, and I scored this lovely necklace from Land of Plenty. If you are in or around Akron, go! All kinds of vintage items at very affordable prices. I could've spent hundreds of dollars. Instead I bought some necklaces & part of an animal jaw. RESTRAINT.

Connect, share & let the world know!
Mama and Papa both share a love for vintage games. When they heard little Desmond was on the way, they didn't think twice about a birth announcement for their MINIgeek: they wanted to make sure that their little one would grow up to be a gamer too! ;) They spotted our game-box concept at Gent Comic Con and contacted us through our website. We set up a meeting because Mama & Papa have big plans to announce the birth of their little one, too much to put on e-mail. And what an exciting project it turned out to be: Mama & Papa wanted to tell the story of Desmond with a pixel-animation mock-up of a game, including a vintage NES-BOX!
Mama & Papa wanted a card with a vintage game cover. For close friends and family they wanted an animation which mirrors the platforms of a real pixel-game. Mama & Papa worked very closely with us on this project: sketches & storylines were sent back and forward. Desmond was going to be the hero of the story, and a little dragon (based on a knitted toy Mama made for Desmond) was going to be his sidekick. In the game Desmond has to work himself through several levels and beat the big bady in the last level. Then he finaly meets his Mama & Papa and becomes their very own MINIgeek.
The old NES-games were stored in those typical cardboard-boxes. To finished it off, the artwork from the card was used to make a real custom vintage NES-box! A few weeks before the due-date, we delivered the boxes and the original painting to Mama & Papa. Then the waiting game began. On Valentine's day we received a message from PAPA with the last details to be filled in into the print-ready file for the birth announcement card. We sent it to the printers and followed up the next day. Mama & Papa choose the printers- delivery service and the next day the cards arrived to be sent of to friends and family!
An amazing project to work on, which resulted in a beautiful birth announcement, which suits this family to a T. And after 9 months of waiting .... the real game's a foot!

There is an abundance of natural bird life that thrives here on the hill including Galahs, Cockatoos, Corella’s, Kookaburra’s, Mopoke owl’s, Wattlebird’s, pardalote’s and others. be&be also has resident animals. Love birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, chickens, budgerigars, Sunny my dog and Missy my cat.
Sunny came from the pound so your guess is as good as mine as to her breed or breeds. I think maybe staffy, cattle dog, possibly kelpie or even dingo cross.
Missy, also from the pound, was chosen by the kids. She fights at night and nearly died from one of her war wounds. Her lack of gratitude for my saving her life by emptying my bank account still smarts.
One of the love birds chose us. She broke into the aviary and was flying around with the budgies. I took her to the pet shop who told me she was a Fischer Love Bird and sold me a mate for her. Now we regularly have babies.
After three fox attack I have just made a roof for the chicken coop. The new batch will hopefully live long and happy lives and produce lots of little chicks for us to enjoy.
The rabbits are purebred Dwarf Mini Lops. They live in the aviary with the budgies and so get to have their babies in warrens they dig in the ground, as you can see in the middle picture above. I put a removable lid on this one, so the dirt didn’t cave in, which meant we could hold the babies.
Guinea pigs are born able to run around and they are super cute.
The Budgies now live with the guinea pigs and the rabbits in the aviary, slash menagerie. When in the smaller cage they were prolific breeders. Since moving they have not had a single baby. The love birds were in as well until they tore the wing off a finch and ripped the beak off a budgie. I rang the man who sold them to me who told me they would be fine together and he suggested it was ironic they were called love birds.

HealthCare Stat is now offering Laser Lipo at the Newcastle/Tri-City Office. Patients have been losing 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch during their first session!
Good candidates for Laser Lipo are patients who don't have a lot of weight to lose and are more concerned with problem areas. This person should already be committed to a healthy lifestyle.
This works by targeting fat cells and not affecting other tissues in the body. The lasers perforate the fat cells so they empty their contents and shrink. The fat cells are not destroyed; thus, not causing any unevenness. The fat is then flushed out through your lymphatic system.

McHale Engineering worked with landscape architects to create a new bike trail and retaining wall on the campus of SFSU. The path connects to the city bike routes and provides a safer route to campus for bicyclists, as well as pedestrians. The lighting, plantings, and grading were designed to create minimal environmental impacts and use electrical and water resources wisely, while encouraging bike and pedestrian travel instead of driving.

Ordering a gluten-totally free pizza at Sammy’s, Pizzacato or at Z-Pizza are all fantastic options. Even the much more hipster like pizza places like Urbn now provide a gluten-totally free crust.
It is extremely important to at minimum try the dietary interventions for Autism Spectrum Disorder. Some children have truly enhanced from such diet programs as the Gluten Casein Totally free Diet. This is simply because a certain subset of the Autism populace also has Celiac Disease. Individuals who have Celiac Illness can’t digest the protein gluten, therefore the require to go on a gluten- totally free diet. If kids with Celiac Illness eat meals that include gluten, it causes them very horrible abdomen discomfort, such as gas, bloating, even vomiting and complete inability to digest their meals.
I ordered a twelve pack box and was in a position to finish the entire bag just an hour after it arrived. They are so delicious it made me forget that I was consuming veggies. I now favor them over my sour product and onion potato chips.
It’s really a gratifying hobby. Creating practical and attractive wood pieces with your personal two hands can provide you with a real sense of accomplishment. There are a number of persuasive reasons to get concerned with woodworking, yet the most important factor to consider is usually going to be your ideas. The right contemporary furniture plans can imply joyous, rewarding, and possibly even lucrative wood crafting. Of course, sub-par modern furnishings ideas can deliver about sheer disappointment.
MW: There has been a massive consciousness shift about eating more healthily and eating Gluten Free Products in our society. It’s been incredible to watch because it’s been something I have longed for and I am shocked to see it happening-it seems like it occurred extremely all of a sudden, even though that’s probably not the situation. It just has strike a tipping point that has made being more aware about our meals an essential problem. Of program, there is nonetheless a extremely lengthy way to go. The junk meals is just being packaged differently and the illusion of health is what lots of producers are striving for, vs. goods that are really healthful and nourishing.
The first step is to request an formal physician’s be aware stating a celiac prognosis or a nutritional require to be on a gluten-totally free diet plan. This will be submitted with all other documentation on the tax return. Usually maintain a duplicate for personal information, as well.
Udi’s has four different granolas to select from, and Nature’s Path also has numerous GF cereals to choose from. So choose out your preferred and get began.
MW: Hold true to your eyesight. Make sure you have Tons of support-don’t ever think you can do this alone. Get the best individuals on board. Don’t pinch pennies-it costs money to build some thing. Dream Big-be certain to envision your business being effective and large-if you can’t imagine it, it won’t happen. Be prepared to learn, change, develop, work hard and be effective!

My son has big dreams for himself and for making the world a better place. I couldn’t be prouder and I want to support, encourage, and help him accomplish those dreams. We all want our kids to flourish in school, in sports and in life.
Kids have big dreams and as parents, we want to ensure that we are giving them all the tools they need to succeed. Here are five things you can do to help your child reach their full potential!
Healthy kids are more productive at school, in sports and other things they are passionate about. From good nutrition and exercise to ensuring your kids have quality preventive health care, keeping your kids healthy helps them be more successful at school and in life. Eating healthy, exercising regularly, and ensuring your kids are going to their pediatrician for check-ups and vaccinations are just a few examples of ways you can ensure they stay healthy. The right preventive care at every stage helps your kids stay healthy, avoid or delay the onset of disease and keeps conditions they already have from becoming worse or debilitating.
Did you know that the Florida KidCare program offers free and affordable health and dental insurance for children from birth through 18 years of age — with no application fee? Through Florida KidCare coverage, your child has access to private, quality health and dental providers. My kids were on Florida KidCare insurance for over 5 years and we just loved all of the providers, we still have the same doctors now that we have insurance through my work. With year-round enrollment and an easy, free application, the time to apply for Florida KidCare is always now!
Encouraging your child to explore and try new things helps them find new talents, which in turn develops new skills that will be valuable for the rest of their lives. Present to them a variety of extra-curricular activities, sports and classes, encourage new hobbies and be supportive and helpful as they find things they are passionate about. From science, math or music camps to joining the robotics team at school or participating in a play, experiencing different things allows kids not only to grow intellectually but also emotionally, since they can interact with other kids who share their passions.
My daughter has autism and some motor challenges and school can sometimes be very difficult for her. A couple of years ago her grades went up dramatically and when we met with her teachers to discuss her progress they all agreed that traveling earlier that year was having a very positive impact on her learning because she was able to put into context things she was learning in books at school. Research has shown that kids who travel not only improved academic performance but also enjoy school more and have a greater connection to the world.
Traveling not only teaches kids about history, architecture and geography first hand but, most importantly, introduces them to new things, cultures and people broadening their horizons and sparking their curiosity and sense of exploration. Traveling to other countries and states also teaches children first-hand about differences and how celebrating those differences enriches our lives and our worlds. Traveling with your kids also gives you the opportunity to spend quality time together, boosting their self-esteem and creating happy memories that will last them a lifetime and inspire them.
Help your child understand the value of hard work. Instead of focusing on grades, encourage children to do their best work and praise them for working hard, which will help your child develop a “growth mindset”. Instead of just focusing on a child getting top marks, compliment the hours of studying and time spent working on assignments.
Teaching children to be independent and self-sufficient will help them succeed in everything they do. Give your kids opportunities to make their own decisions and show confidence in their capabilities while providing guidance and support. It’s important that kids learn to be responsible and are also held accountable for their own failures and mistakes. This will not only help them learn from those failures and grow, but it will also teach them to take responsibility for their actions.
As my kids get older I encourage them to solve problems by themselves from talking to their teacher about missed homework and figuring out how to build things on their own to finding answers by researching on the internet. To help them find solutions, teach them to first identify what the problem is, then come up with solutions and analyze the solutions before trying them out to see what works best. Learning how to face problems and deal with consequences is an invaluable life skill.
No matter what their age, play is important for kids. Be sure to find a balance between afterschool activities, chores, homework and free time. Overscheduling your children’s time can overwhelm them. Helping your child prioritize what’s more important to them ensures they don’t get stressed and teaches them about decision making. Leaving room for free time will provide them not only with the opportunity to relax and think, which is important, but also help them work on their organization and time management skills which are crucial for succeeding in anything in life.
Playing independently or with other children lets kids explore and feed their passions, develop new skills and interests, and teaches them about decision making, problem-solving, self-control and independence.
Florida KidCare exists to increase the number of insured Florida children and assure they have access to quality health and dental care. All Florida KidCare program benefits include doctor visits, check-ups, hospital stays, surgeries, immunizations, prescriptions, emergencies, vision and hearing, dental, mental health services and more. Through Florida KidCare, some children will qualify for completely free coverage with Medicaid. Most families pay nothing at all for coverage, and many families pay just $15 or $20 a month.
I love all these tips I need to be strict in the independence part and encourage them more with my son because it does help at the end of it all and makes them learn more. Thank you for sharing.
Insurance is so important!! My husband was recently laid off and we lost our health coverage. I had no idea what it was like to be without. It’s scary! We live in Florida, and Florida KidCare is an option!
Insurance is a necessity ! With the way things are going on in the world..its a must!
I so agree with these tips! I’ve always encouraged independence for my kids–I think it’s so important.
Great tips! I agree on keeping children healthy and open their eyes on travel and experience different cultures will help them grow deeper!
These are great tips. I think exposing a child to all the things out there is one of the best way to help a child grow. Thanks for sharing.
Don’t have a child yet but for me to make him/her independent and to encourage is most valuable.
These are good key points for a young mom like me. I have always been feeling that I was not able to gude them to be their best. But, I don’t want to frustrate them at such a young age. And yes, balance is the key. Thank you.
These are really great tips. It is so important that we encourage our children in a positive way to help your child do their best.
Traveling is a great way to expand your child’s mind and allow them to understand different cultures. Thanks for the pointers.
Love this! These are all so important. We don’t have kids yet but I’ll have to keep these in mind for when we do.
Great article! We are also trying to do all this with our child.
What a great list of things to help your child grow! It sounds like Florida has a great health insurance plan for kids too. They have something similar here but doesn’t cover anything other than doctor visits. Dental and eye are extra.
I agree with all the points. Making them independent and learning from their own experiences is more important and the best way to do is to let them travel and see new stuff every time. Great Read.
These are some very important and useful tips for parents..
Nice list. I agree with keeping them healthy and opening new horizons for them. We are practicing attachment parenting with our daughter and it works for us.
These are some great tips for parents! The Healthcare of children is top priority and exposing them to travels is great also.

1 saturn facts | This Blog Rules | Why go elsewhere?
Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun in our solar system. It’s also the second largest behind Jupiter and the only one to be surrounded by a vividly shaped ring. It completes an orbit around the Sun in 30 Earth years and it completes a full turn around its own axis in only 10 and a half hours. These are some of the most basic facts about Saturn you could know, but there is still so much to be learned about this beautiful giant. Here are 10 Facts About Saturn You Probably Didn’t Know.
#1 – Saturn, like most planets in the Milky Way, was named after a Roman deity. In this case, it’s, well… Saturn! He was considered to be the God of agriculture among many other things, but he later on became the God of Time too. Because of this, his Greek equivalent is the famed Cronus.
#2 – Because of the speed of its rotation around its own axis, Saturn is slowly turning into a flattened pancake. The scientific term for it, though, is “oblate spheroid.” This phenomenon is similar to what’s happening to the extremes of the equator on Earth, but it’s much more visible in Saturn’s case.
#3 – Saturn would float in water. It’d take a really huge mass of water to be able to sink this giant in, but, in theory, it could actually happen. This is because Saturn has the lowest density of the solar system, indirectly proportional to its sheer size.
#4 – Facts about Saturn for kids: ruin their expectations by telling them the planet’s ring isn’t solid. Most children believe this myth, for all the good reasons. Unfortunately, it’s not a material ring, but it’s one made of pieces of rock, dust, and ice varying in size.
#5 – Saturn is one of the planets surrounded by a ton of moons. The inner part of our solar system, which is made of Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars is notably lacking in their presence. We assume this is because they all flocked over to Saturn, a planet with a grand total of 62 moons. The most notable of them has to be Titan, an awesomely named moon with a rocky surface covered in ice.
#6 – Despite the fact that astronomy evolved so much, only four spacecrafts have ever been sent to Saturn. The first one was in 1979, while the last one was in 2004. Cassini, what the spacecraft was called, was the only one that managed to break through Saturn’s atmosphere and snap some snazzy photos of its surface and ring.
#7 – Speaking of Saturn’s moons, hundreds of years ago, Galileo wrongly observed the shape of the planet and assumed that its ring was actually two moons stuck to different sides of the planet. This happened in 1610 and, surprisingly, it only took a few decades until it was decided that there truly were no moons involved in the creation of the ring.
#8 – Saturn’s ring is also the subject of a rather fascinating phenomenon. Because of its axis, just like the Earth, Saturn is slightly tilted. Meaning that, sometimes it can be observed from Earth and we can see the ring in all its glory. In other instances, the ring can’t be seen at all and the view is replaced by its many moons.
#9 – Yes, we did say that it can be observed from Earth. Due to its size, it’s one of the five planets that can be seen shining brightly in the night sky on a clear night. By using a telescope, you can even get a peek at its ring.
#10 – Titan, Saturn’s most famous moon, has gravitational weak enough to allow humans to fly. Assuming we’ll ever get to step on Titan’s surface, this is the ideal time to properly try to imitate a bird.

Standing Out – Converting and Kit Bashing to Create a Unique Army.
About two years ago while working at Tesla, my Supervisor turned to me and said “Dude, we should play Dungeons and Dragons”. I was excited with the idea of bringing a tabletop game to work, but I decided to reply “NO, let’s play Warhammer 40,000!” Since then I have been deeply obsessed with Warhammer, and miniatures in general, specially because of the creative freedom granted by the grey plastic which invites players to create their own legions and lore. The thing is that no matter what army you play as, you have the same selection of troops at your finger tips as everyone else. a unique paint scheme is not always enough to make your army feel like “your guys”, and that is when kit bashing and conversion is required.
Kit bashing is the art of taking bits from various kits and combining them in such a way that you make something new, something to fit your image, something which makes this miniature yours.
Conversion is similar, but usually involves the use of tools to modify bits, and figures as well as the use of sculpting putty (green stuff). Conversion also usually completely changes the role, character, or overall function and appearance of the miniature being converted. For instance, I usually swap out Space Marine Scout heads for some Anvil Industries head sets, I also usually add pauldrons to my scouts – this is kit bashing. On the flip, there are people out there who have taken Primaris Space Marines and added their own features to create a gritty, grim dark version of Buzz Lightyear. While some may say that both kit bashing and conversion are the same thing, I believe the difference is in the end result of the model, and the extent of work it took to get there.
Some people alter their figures for the sole purpose of having miniatures which are unique to their army. Other people convert to bring characters into their game for which no actual model exists. Others do it for both reasons. Whatever your reason may be for wanting to alter your miniatures, the next step is sourcing bits and kits for the conversions. Here are a few of the sources I use for my own miniatures.
Anvil Industry is a manufacturer from the UK which makes their own range of miniatures as well as their tabletop game. Their Exo-lords line of miniatures is plentiful in Space Marine compatible bits from pauldrons, weapons, and accessories. Their Regiments line has an abundant selection of Imperial Guard compatible bits with such a wide product range that Imperial Guard players are sure to find something to fit their specific army. My favorite thing about Anvil industry is their wide selection of heads, in fact this is where I get ALL of my head replacements from. I specifically use Anvil Industry to source replacement heads for my Space Marine scouts, as the stock heads make them look a little too silly for the grim dark universe of the Warhammer 40,000 universe.
The quality of Anvil Industries kits is top-notch, very close in quality with Games-Workshop miniatures, making their bits incredibly useful for kit bashing and conversion. The only downside is that the scale is slightly off, not enough to make it immediately noticeable on first sight, but experienced hobbyist will notice. Experienced hobbyist should have no problem getting around this minor imperfection through the use of green stuff, or through the strategic posing, and placement of the miniature in question. If you are a Space Marine or Imperial Guard player this supplier is a must.
Kromlech’s bits are top-notch in quality, easily rivaling Anvil Industry and Games-Workshop, but they too suffer from a scaling issue. Where Anvil Industry bits are slightly too small, Kromlech’s bits are slightly larger. Again experienced hobbyist should have no problem working through this minor issues, and even with little modification the size difference is not noticeable at first glance. I will say though that I am not sure this is a problem across all product ranges, but it was one of the first things I noticed with their range of Ork bits.
Like Anvil Industry, Kromlech has a wide range of products, but their range covers more than human factions. Kromlech offers bits compatible with Space Marines, Imperial Guard, Chaos Space Marines, Orks, and other miniatures. Despite their large selection, when visiting their site, and when looking at their front page, it is clear that their specialization is Ork related kits. Their Ork line offers a wide range of variation from World War II Germany inspired Orks, to Pirate Orks. They also offer a wide range of vehicle conversions, something which Anvil Industry does not readily have.
A great source for Warhammer 40,000 compatible proxies, as well as bits. However one look at their product line and it is easy to see that their lines are 100% created for the sole purpose being used for Warhammer 40,000. The logos, design, art style, and even names are so close to the 40k factions and heroes they represent that this company is basically walking the line of copyright infringement. Despite the blatant rip-ff of some of the model designs, this source is perfect for bits for almost every army. Specifically I like to use this supplier for anything related to Chaos Space Marines, specifically their vehicle conversion kits.
If you are building a Space Marine army, or Tau army, but want to make sure that all the bits being used are 100% Games-Workshop bits, then this is your go to place. This source does not manufacture their own bits, but rather creates a market where players can buy loose bits, by model, make, and army. You are almost 100% guaranteed that the products you buy here are 100% authentic, and original. Pieces come unpainted and unassembled. The range of bits available here is incredibly wide, offering more than just bits from standalone unit sets, but also those found in core sets such as “Assault on Black Reach” and “Space Hulk”. Aside from Anvil Industry, this is my second most used supplier.
I have a love/hate relationship with this supplier. On one hand their designs are exceptional and beautifully sculpted. On the other hand, their scaling is way off, and their quality is overall inconsistent. One example is the fact that their helmeted heads are the exact same size as their unhelmeted heads. Normally when someone puts on a helmet their head will look bigger, due to the addition of a whole layer of protection, but with Puppet’s War product this is not the case. The pauldrons they make are too thin giving them an overall flimsy feel, given their price point is no different from products offered by Anvil Industry, Kromlech, and Games-Workshop you end up feeling like you are paying the same amount, for less quality.
A pro for this supplier is that they have a wide range of products to choose from. Their environments, vehicles, and vehicle weapons kits, for example, are top-notch, in that they are very detailed, and scaling does not appear to be too off the center. My only advice when using this supplier is that you tread with caution, and don’t rely on them for EVERY part of your conversion.
Buying brand name bits, kits, and sets can get pricey. The internet has made it incredibly easy to access bits from various sources across the globe, and it is during these searches that we often encounter the temptation of buying counterfeit kits. After all why pay the $60.00 for Reboute Guilliman when you can head over to a Chinese recaster and buy him for $25? The issue with doing this is that such actions hurt the community as a whole. The amount of time and resources that goes into the creation these products is astounding. As with music, and cinema, piracy does nothing but hurt the industry by diverting revenue to the counterfeiters and away from the creators. It’s also important to note that you get what you pay for, the reason that most miniatures do tend to be a bit pricey is because of all of the work that goes into creating these products including quality control. Steer clear of Heresy, and remain in the Emperor’s favor by supporting official products, made and distributed by their creators.
One thing to remember before committing to a conversion or other form of alteration is that some stores, such as Games-Workshop, may not allow you to play with altered versions of their products. Most local hobby shops may not be a problem, but brand specific stores such as Games-Workshop may be more strict about your alterations. The same goes for some Tournaments, even if not hosted by the brand’s manufacturer/publisher. With that in mind, pick a fandom, pick a faction, and let your imagination run wild.

Lighting, reflections, texture and a touch of colour are usually enough elements to create an interesting composition. Often there is no need for complicated setups.
Here I am playing with dimensions, layers, depth of field, reality and illusion….all sort of things!
A little distortion and shift in the elements within the compositions, but I think these imperfections actually help with the sense of reality I wanted to achieve.
Please, leave a comment and let me now what you think….

All of the toys reviewed here provide many levels of skill building that will teach the baby how different textures feel, how to move objects, and how to recognize shapes and colors. All of the toys chosen are colorful and loaded with activities. Sensory skills and motor skills are a benefit of almost each toy because playing should not only be fun but beneficial. All of the toys also provide multiple opportunities for the baby to chew and teeth on soft objects as well as soft plastic ones. Teething is a painful time for infants and these toys can help ease the pain in a playful way.
Even at the most infantile age, babies need to hear sounds and music to use and strengthen their hearing skills. The toys listed here that do make sounds or music, do so in a very gentle way that will not frighten or alarm the baby. They are introductory noises and music that soothes the baby into sleep or nap time easily. Not all toys must make sounds, but those that do must encourage the baby to listen and be something that it enjoys hearing. All of these toys do that very nicely.
The manufacturers of the items listed here were careful to keep baby in mind when choosing the materials for their toys. Knowing that infants would be teething and gnawing on these toys, most of them are made with nontoxic or BPA-free materials to keep your baby safe. The fabrics are all super soft so the baby will not be scratched or have problems with its tender skin. Even the toys with crinkly fabrics for the crunchy sounds are soft to the touch and ready for nibbling and teething infants.
Child development progresses in a very systematic and organized way-–from general to specific, from gross to fine, and from top to bottom. Your understanding of these principles are very crucial to making the correct choice of toys and playthings for your very young baby.
Infants who are less than 28 days old are generally classified as newborns or, in medical parlance, neonates; although it is not uncommon to see some parents calling a 3 month old baby still a newborn. This stage of a child’s development is very crucial as he or she is still adjusting to life outside the protection of the mother’s womb. Neonates are especially vulnerable to infections, injuries, and other illnesses. Unfortunately, it is also a very critical stage in his or her development because anything that he or she experiences or senses by this time will already be imprinted on his or her very young mind.
Toys are your kids’ best instruments for learning more about themselves as well as other people and things in their immediate surroundings. These play things are very important for your child’s physical, psychological, social, and emotional development. As such, it is very crucial that, as parents of these lovable children, you should be able to provide them with the correct kinds of toys that are highly appropriate for their age and development.
We have listed below the top 19 products that you can consider for your new addition to the family. The toys and play things included in this list are a product of meticulous research that factored quality, safety, and overall reliability and trustworthiness of the toy. Additionally, we also listened to what countless of parents who have already tried these toys with their own kids.
q: Does the Piano Play Gym play just one note for each key when pressed or does it just play music?
It has two modes of music play you can choose - short play just sounds one key at a time, while long play actually plays music for up to 15 minutes.
q: Does the Bead Buddy Giraffe hang up?
No, this toy does not hang up.
q: For the Newborn-to-Toddler Play Gym, do the hanging toys come off so others can be put on too?
es, they do come off and you can put on other toys that can fit in those spaces.
q: For the Tiny Love Take Along Mobile, does the mobile move as the music plays or is it still?
The mobile does rotate or stay still for the music. You can choose what you prefer.
q: Does the Grow With Me Activity Gym and Ball Pit make any noises or sounds or play music?
No it does not make any noises, sounds, or music.
q: Is there an attachment strap for the Sassy Ball?
No there is no attachment strap nor a place on the toy to attach one.
q: What is the benefit of colorful, high contrast toys?
Colorful toys help to stimulate baby’s eyesight and engage them in play. High-contrast toys, such as toys with lots of different animals, help your child to switch focus. By pointing out the colors, and talking about the different animals, your baby will learn to follow along with you, rather than staying fixed on one subject. They might not understand the meaning of your words yet, or be able to differentiate between the animals fully, but they’ll develop the mental capacity to change tracks. Deceptively simple concepts and toys can still have a huge impact on your child's learning to assess and functionally interact with the world around them.

Good to know! Thanks for that info.
Thank you so much! Great options!
We will be arriving in Southampton on a Saturday in April. Our flight leaves from Heathrow the next day. We are more countryside folk rather than city. We would love to find an excursion that would take us to Salisbury, Windsor and possibly Stonehenge. We are open to other charming stops. I found one company whose prices are £179 each, up to 8 people. The price drops to £140 with 9 or more. (I’ve posted it on our roll call). I’m just wondering if anyone has other suggestions.
We used Ed’s Taxi Tours in Dover. We went to Canterbury, Leeds Castle & the White Cliffs. Ed was knowledgeable and fun! He was able to throw in a few stops we had not requested...a WWII aircraft museum and a Battle of Britain memorial. We put together a group of eight on our Roll Call Board and it was only £56.25 each. It was great!
Rabbies Tours....should I buy admissions online?
We used them in Edinburgh & we very happy with our tour. Our driver/guide was very knowledgeable & friendly. While I can’t comment on the tour you are thinking of, I would recommend the company based on my experience. Have fun!
And don’t you know...within 5 minutes of posting of this, I got a reply from Rabbies. No need to pre-pay excursions. They get discount tickets for us.
We have a tour booked on Rabbies out of Edinburgh to Rosslyn Chapel & Melrose Abbey. I know we are responsible to pay the admissions to attractions. Is it advisable to pre-purchase these tickets to save time? I emailed Rabbies but haven’t gotten an answer. Thanks!
Thank you so very kindly! I think we will take a taxi to be sure we get there in time for our scheduled visit. You are so helpful, Tartan! We appreciate you taking time to help us!
We will be there July 21-22! Very soon!
We will be on the Celebrity Eclipse. Thank you!
Thank you all for the good information! I was apprehensive about DIY in Edinburgh...but with your good recommendations, I think we can do it! We will prebook tickets to the castle & palace. Starting from the castle, we will spend 2-3 hours there. Then mosey down the Royal Mile, being sure to see Canongate church and St. Giles Cathedral. Then head down to the palace. My question is, what is the best way to actually get to the castle to start our day? I read about the ship’s shuttle and about buses. But I don’t know exactly where they let off passengers. If a taxi is the only way to get directly to the castle, does anyone have an estimate of the taxi fare? Thank you all so much!
