Does anybody remember how to program in C? Well, its syntax is similar to that of languages such as Java, PHP and others, but C uses a data type named pointer, and an array is a pointer, too. When you define an array, the system allocates enough space for it, but when you use the array nobody keeps you from accessing elements out of that array. You will not get a “Subscript out of range” error with the file’s name and line number. What you’ll get instead is a segmentation fault or another variable’s value will change. Use a debugger to find where it happens.
Use GArray, and you can enjoy the function ‘g_array_sort’ that sorts using a user-defined comparison function. This structure also allows you to increase the size of your array without calling ‘realloc’ implicitly.
GSList and GList are the data types of singly-linked and doubly-linked respectively, and a ‘foreach’ functions are defined to perform the same operation on each of their elements.
Other data structures are hash-tables, balanced binary trees, N-ary trees, etc.
An interesting utility is the command line option parser, that will check the validity of values passed via the command line and pass the values to function and global variables defined by the user. In addition, this utility will define the ‘–help’ flag, which will print your program’s command line flags and their use.
Of course, this is not everything you can do with GLib, GLib also supports threads and processes, events, etc.
If you want to distribute products you developed using GLib, you might be interested in the license. GLib is distributed under the Lesser GPL license, which means that you can distribute proprietary and open-source software developed with this library.

People have been fascinated by Supreme Leader Snoke (Andy Serkis) since we first caught a glimpse of him. A mess of a creature that looks like someone tried to feed him into a wood chipper Fargo style. He’s a mess and Serkis spoke to Entertainment Weekly about the physicality and surprising vanity of the character.
Serkis is used to twisting his body into crazy shapes for his roles and he spoke a little about what he did to alter his performance for Snoke as well.
It turns out those injuries aren’t just something they came up with on the fly; they are based on a very real and very terrible war.
“His deformity is very much based on injuries from the First World War, from the trenches,” Serkis says.
His injuries feed into the fact that he’s vain different ways. While the Emperor dressed in black and in what looked a little like rags Snoke is decked in gold.
That explains the throne room with the bright red guards.
He wouldn’t be a Star Wars villain if he wasn’t super extra.

1. Friendship – I’ve managed to catch up with many of my friends this week. Friendship is great for sharing history and dreams, ideas and moans. I always leave with a buzz and feeling inspired. It’s so great to feel like it’s not just you!
2. Swallows & Amazons – I saw this film at the cinema in the week and it was literally an hour and a half of pure escapism. Beautiful scenery and good acting. The exceptional story, a vintage children’s classic, flows along beautifully. I loved it and am counting the days until I can watch it with my nephews and niece who I think will also love it!
3. Bike rides in the countryside – I’m kind of training for the 100 mile bike ride through London and Surrey next year. I’m trying to slowly increase my mileage and I’m around 20 miles right now. I live in a town but I’m a ten minute ride from the countryside. This week I’ve been watching the tractors in so many fields doing the harvest. It’s so relaxing just to see fields of sheep.
4. Selling – I’ve been trying to budget as you know. Yesterday I was planning next months expenditures and worked out how much I needed to make from my vintage business. By yesterday afternoon I had already got half way towards my goal. I was super excited!
5. Sunshine – it has certainly been far too hot this week and there were 2 days where I was beside myself! But I love the sunshine and it is fab to be topping up on the vitamin D, to be smiling and to be outside!
This week we are off to a family wedding so plenty of happy things to look forward to.

President Donald Trump talks to Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts while leaving the House chamber after giving his State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress, Tuesday, Feb. 5, 2019 at the Capitol in Washington.
The separate and distinct powers provided to each of the three branches of government detailed in the Constitution have been twisted and torqued, abdicated and amassed, undermined and absconded by overreach. We have seen flailing gyrations in recent days with all three branches — and the people within them — along with everyday citizens once again looking for the judicial branch to show up in superhero “Justice League” capes to save the country.
On Feb. 15 President Donald Trump spoke from the Rose Garden and summed up the current state of the government. He said that Congress had once again failed to do its job, that he was signing an emergency executive order to deal with the crisis at the border and that he expected his opponents to file a lawsuit that would ultimately end up in the Supreme Court — where he hoped to win.
The pattern the president described isn’t new to his administration or to the current battle over border security and government funding. Sadly, it has become the new normal in Washington.
For decades Congress has been abdicating its proper authority to the executive branch. Many question why senators and representatives from across the political spectrum would give away the power and leadership authority bequeathed to them in the Constitution. The answer is simple — reelection.
Congress has been passing beautifully named bills filled with sweeping generalizations that bestow on executive branch agencies the power to write law, establish penalties and play judge, jury and executioner when violations occur. Such a scenario enables members of Congress to point fingers at and place blame on the executive branch and agencies when their constituents are unhappy with burdensome rules and oppressive, overreaching regulations.
The executive branch is all too happy to take whatever power Congress is willing to part with. Presidents of both political parties have pushed the envelope in expanding executive power. Whether it is the agencies that have become estates unto themselves or presidents governing by executive order, the issue, problem and result are the same. The natural byproduct is for lawsuits to begin wending their way through the courts.
The Supreme Court does not have supreme superpowers. However, other government branches and far too many Americans have begun to look at it as possessing such strength. Justices wear robes, not capes, for a reason. They are to judge and interpret, not create and legislate.
Members of Congress regularly vote for legislation knowing the courts will likely have to fix it later. The executive branch likewise issues edicts and regulations knowing it could take years for the problem to move through the courts.
During the Obama administration, the court regularly served as the proper check against the executive branch. Unanimous rulings from the Supreme Court are noteworthy, especially in today’s political environment. But dozens of times, the Supreme Court voted unanimously to strike down excessive use of power on a wide range of issues within President Barack Obama's executive orders. The courts have also served President Trump a number of stiff and stinging rebukes in his first two years in office and will soon be tested by his new emergency order to fund walls and barriers at the border.
It should be noted that the judicial branch is not immune from egocentric power grabs and overreach. Chief Justice John Roberts may have begun to believe he was a superhero when he rewrote the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, from the bench not once, but twice, in order to save it. Such a superpower in the judicial branch was never imagined by the framers of the Constitution.
With Congress and the legislative branch abdicating power, the executive branch attempting to amass it and the judicial branch regularly swooping in, in superhero fashion, it should surprise no one that the confirmation of judges to the Supreme Court and to lower courts has become the place for white-hot political battles. The courts are currently where the political action is taking place. Who sits on a judicial bench for such political battles matters far more than perhaps it should.
I have seen organizations, institutions and politicians across the political spectrum be more focused on the lawsuit they will file, if they fail to get what they want, than they are on winning the argument for the hearts and minds of people across the country. If the answer to any possible loss of legislative or executive power and position is to file a lawsuit, America has lost too much.
The current confusion about and obfuscation of roles and responsibilities among Congress, the executive branch and judicial branch is unhealthy, unsustainable and undermines the confidence the American people have in our system of government. It also prevents us as citizens from having the right kind of conversations about critical issues.
The solution is simple. Old-school, “Schoolhouse Rock” simple. The legislative branch needs to do its job — write law in a process that is open and transparent, includes rigorous debate, provides opportunity for amendments and compromise and ends with meaningful votes in front of the American people. The executive branch needs to enforce the law. The judicial branch needs to interpret the law. And everyone must stop looking to the judicial branch as some sort of “Justice League” team. Judges interpret the law in black robes — not in superhero capes.

Malpractice vs. Human Error: What is REALLY a Mistake?
Regardless of the quality of education and training received by a doctor, mistakes can and do happen. If you believe that you have been injured as a result of a medical procedure or treatment, you should be able to determine whether your case crosses the line from human error into medical malpractice.
If you are a victim of medical malpractice, you may be able to receive compensation for your injuries by filing a medical malpractice lawsuit. Click here for more information.
But first you need to know, what exactly is medical malpractice? And what do you need to prove your case?
1. So, what is Medical Malpractice?
There are several elements that must be in place if you intend to file a compelling medical malpractice claim. When a physician acts recklessly or negligently towards a patient, and this situation causes harm to that patient, then the patient may suffer damages or injuries and become entitled to file a medical malpractice claim. An error on its own, though, does not necessarily constitute medical malpractice.
2. What is the Standard of Care?
If the mistake would not be expected from a reasonable and careful physician administering the same diagnosis or treatment, and you have suffered serious injuries as a result your care, then your case may be more than just a matter of simple human error.
There is a certain standard of care that needs to be observed by doctors, and if you can prove your doctor or health care provider acted in a way that was less than that acceptable standard, you may be looking at a potential medical malpractice issue.
3. What is a Doctor’s Responsibility?
However, bear in mind that it is not the responsibility of your doctor to guarantee a specific outcome or cure. Rather, the important thing to remember is that the provider is responsible for giving you medical care in line with the standards accepted throughout the medical community.
4. What is a Medical Malpractice Attorney’s Responsibility?
One of the most important things you can do if you believe you have been injured by a doctor’s lack of care or inaccurate/delayed diagnosis is to discuss your case with a medical malpractice attorney.
Having your case evaluated by an experienced attorney can give you better insight into whether it’s the right to move forward with a claim.
5. Knowing is Half the Battle…and the Most Important Thing You Can Do.
While your Boca Raton medical malpractice attorney cannot guarantee success or a particular outcome, it can be an important opportunity to understand the real potential of your claim.
If successful, your medical malpractice attorney can help you chart a course for the future so that you can focus on recovery.
All in all, the laws surrounding medical malpractice in the state of Florida have changed considerably over time as many citizens have attempted to commit fraud or make other types of fraudulent claims against medical practitioners in hopes of obtaining a large settlement.
It’s important to familiarize yourself with the laws and statutes of limitations surrounding potential medical malpractice claims. For help with the process, speak with a reputable Boca Raton medical malpractice attorney.
While no patient should have to suffer through a doctor’s mistake, not every case may qualify as a medical malpractice claim. Having your questions answered by an experienced Boca Raton medical malpractice attorney and learning more about your options can help you determine the most appropriate thing for you to do.
Schedule an appointment with a Boca Raton medical malpractice attorney sooner rather than later so that you can get your questions answered.

When I was little, one of my favorite toy cars was a little blue Volkswagen Beetle. It’s always been one of those dream cars in my mind but mundane practicality has always won out when a new car was needed. But from that first toy VW until today, I’ve always had a yen for this mid-century modern classic. The fact that they were manufactured in Mexico all the way up until 2003 makes the streets of most any Mexican city a fabulous place for a classic Volkswagen Beetle sighting!
Spotting this blue Volkswagen beetle on my last afternoon on the sun-soaked streets of Mérida was a true pleasure! Not only one of my favorite cars of all time but in my favorite hue of blue no less! Perhaps my favorite color due to that first toy VW all those years ago? I’m not sure but it wouldn’t surprise me at all. I knew the moment I saw this classic Volkswagen beetle in the late afternoon sun with that great colorful Mexican street scene surrounding it that I had all the necessary ingredients for a vibrant art print.
With all that great light and the play of shadows, the result is a real vivid Volkswagen beetle print. Years later I still look at this Mexican street scene and feel as if I could step back into it. There’s just a real sense of depth, don’t you think? There are also some fun details once you look closer like the hand-prints in the dusty car hood. And a personal favorite for me is the little red heart sticker on the windshield. It’s a motif that’s actually duplicated in the iron-work in the window on the wall beyond. Those hearts a beautiful reminder of the “Love Bug” – a fitting tie in with a classic Volkswagen Beetle for sure, eh?
This will always be one of those prints that has a wide audience from people who love the colorful streets of Mexico to those who love the classic VWs themselves. Which speaks most loudly to you? Are you drawn to the colors of Mexico in this print, the beautiful car, or both? I hope you’ll take a moment to share just what you like most about this classic print!

Eremophila glabra “Kalbarri Carpet” develops into a dense ground cover with a spread exceeding two metres. Foliage is soft and silvery-grey. The tubular flowers are yellow, rich in nectar and form a ring around the stems at the base of each leaf. Blooms are profuse, conspicuous and appear in spring and summer. The leaves and flowers form a stunning living carpet. Spent flowers cover the ground around the plants. Tip prune to improve foliage density and flower production.
This beautiful ground cover could be grown in rockeries, spilling over a retaining wall or near a walkway.
“Kalbarri Carpet” probably originated in the Kalbarri area, north of Perth, Western Australia.
This cultivar, as with most Eremophilas or Emu Bushes, propagates rapidly from cuttings.

There is no rule stating that an employer needs to do more than provide their employees with a place to earn money. However, that is a pretty cynical outlook on how to run a business and there are simple employee recognition ideas that could not only make your employees happier, but encourage them to strive for better performance.
In April 2012, Forbes released a report outlining the impact the happiness of your employees will have on your business. In the report they address the misbelief that if employees are too happy, they become complacent in their work. As proof of their assertion that a happy employee equates to productive business, they referred to a book by Adrian Gostick and Chester Elton entitled ALL IN: How the Best Managers Create a Culture of Belief and Drive Big Results. In the book, the authors emphasize the importance of E+E+E, or engaged, enabled, and energized.
1) The employee needs to be engaged in the company, they need to be willing and motivated to put in the extra effort at work.
2) They need to be enabled to perform well and be productive. This could be accomplished through utilizing employee recognition ideas.
3) Lastly, the employees need to be energized. This means not only providing an exciting work environment, but also making sure that environment promotes drive and employee well-being.
Effectiveness of the three E’s is not asserted- it is proven. From 2009 through 2010, a research firm collected information from 700 different corporations. 25 of those companies had 303,000 or more employees that displayed high performance results. One of those companies was American Express, whose Fort Lauderdale call center was one of the most productive places of business. At this specific location, they hold monthly events aimed at boosting the morale of their employees run by a senior vice president in the company. Having such a high ranking employee of the corporation mingle with the lower level workers adds a sense of pride and accomplishment that could have an invaluable impact on their performance.
– Monthly events that have a specific goal or aim. Make sure it is something that brings all levels of employees together to simply improve the atmosphere and attitudes of the workers.
– Provide small tokens or gifts when an employee goes above and beyond their described position. This will not only make them feel appreciated for all their hard work, it will push them to continue to exceed expectations in hope of receiving recognition.
– Plan fun activities, outside of work, employees can get involved in. Anything from an outing once a month to a company softball league can really bring the workers together as a team and promote better productivity in the office.

Throwback Thursday is the segment that takes you down Memory Lane for the races each week. Here’s to turning up, slowing down and cars going real fast because we’re in Talladega this week!
Conveniently, it’s 9 years to the day since this happened. Carl Edwards looked like he was going to win……until there was contact with Brad Keselowski. Edwards ended up flipping while Keselowski took the checkered flag.
It was a close ending to the race, but that’s what makes it fun to watch. Dale Earnhardt took home the win (his 76th overall) and the Winston Million with this race.
The Battle of the Beers is the weekly drinking game focusing on the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series. News, discussion topics and other themes of the week are highlighted and in proper Brake and Clutch form, we target them for a drinking game. Have fun with the race at Martinsville!
-If the snow in Martinsville is mentioned, take a shot.
-If Carl Edwards not returning to driving in NASCAR is discussed, finish your drink.
-If the Axalta and Hendrick Motorsports sponsorship extension is discussed, take a drink.
-If Jimmie Johnson and Lowe’s parting ways gets discussed, take a shot.
-If the BK Racing bankruptcy case is discussed, finish your drink.
-If they make a paperclip reference, take a shot.
-If they talk about the new PNC sponsorship of NASCAR, finish your drink.
-If they talk about the grandfather clock, take a shot.

Mimi was honest, hard working and an amazing negotiator on both the sale of our home and the purchase of our new home. She always got back to us with prompt responses to every question we had. Even during the difficult times, she didn't sugar coat anything, but we knew she was always on our side. We would most definietly use Mimi in the future and recommend her to all our friends and family. Thanks again Mimi for all your hard work and efforts to make our sale and new purchase a success. We could be happier.

Do you find you never have enough time on your hands? I am always busy, especially now that credit is crunchier than burnt toast with a topping of unbuttered peanuts from a jar that had been inappropriately labelled as crunchy peanut butter. As part of my personal cutbacks, I have had to insource all manner of menial jobs, and had to let go of the Polish Doctor who used to wash my car and the Professor of Ancient History from Budapest who previously hoovered my carpet. That is a little bit of an exaggeration, the car washing and carpet-hoovering have only been un-outsourced, as I have yet to find to fully insource them by doing them myself. I scarcely have time, as I am already so darned busy with other critical activities like writing this blog and implementing my many other economy-beating plans. This week, for example, I purchased two televisions. This will both save money and time spent on going out. Not only will that save me money on non-essentials like going to the cinema, but it will save me the time and cost involved in walking the half a mile to get there. Just think of the reduced expenditure on shoe leather. I can also save on bread as I will burn less calories by spending more time on the sofa. As an accountant who likes to keep up to date with best practice from top CFOs around the globe, I intend to realize, in my own ledgers, all the future gains from reduced cinema, shoe and bread expenditure immediately, whilst thanks to the improving reliability of modern technology I fully intend to spread the cost of the televisions over the next ten years. Credit being what it currently is, I still had to find the cash for the televisions straight away, but you have to spend to save the economy, so it made sense to me. Best of all, I made an arbitrary decision to upwardly revise my forecast of future trips to the cinema. My previous cinema-visitation policy of “only if it’s with a sexually available female” was replaced with a substitute assumption of “must see every ‘must-see’ Hollywood blockbuster”. This generated a 400,000% increase in the number of predicted cinema visits. Because the televisions enable me to cut this much greater number of visits all the way back down to zero, the savings on shoes, bread and cinema tickets will be far higher. This approach has been so effective at saving me money, I could afford to buy two televisions instead of just one. To increase the benefits even more, I am thinking of revising my forecast of would-have-been cinema visits once more, this time based on the assumption that I also would have seen every foreign language film put on general release and every movie featuring either Seth Rogan or Simon Pegg. I calculated that not going to foreign language films that I would not have gone to anyway will reduce my shoe and bread costs by another 0.00062%, whilst not seeing any of the Rogan or Pegg films slated to be released this year will save me about 1,400 hours of otherwise wasted time.
The two-TV plan is not the only scheme I have been working on this week. Everybody knows the world makes too much junk. The lending crisis will prevent many people from upgrading their house, but cuts in tax and massive going-out-of-business sales will leave many bargain-hunters unsure where to put all the new junk they will now accumulate. They could save time and just have the new junk delivered directly to the nearest tip, but that would remove the fun in breaking it first. Putting the junk in storage is expensive, and not a good investment. So I devised a little home enterprise to capitalize on the demand. I planned to offer allocated space in my loft, for a fraction of the price charged by professional self-storage firms. Returning from the DIY store with a new stapladder, I ventured into the roofspace to see how much space could be rented out. This was the first time I had ever been up there, what with being so busy directing the Croatian Doctor of Jurisprudence who remodelled my garden (you really cannot trust these people to do the work unsupervised). I found to my dismay that in my loft there was no space available. Instead of the bare beams and scraggy insulation I had expected, I was devastated to find a modern and well-equipped research laboratory. Pouring through the meticulous notes about the experiments that had been performed there, I found detailed descriptions of a systematic attempt to clone human life. I surmised that Bovis Homes were looking to diversify. As well as making row after row of identical homes for people to live in, they also intended to make row after row of identical people to live in them. Whilst appalled at Bovis’ cynical attempts to drive up demand and house prices, and disappointed that my roofspace storage scheme would come to nothing, I nevertheless spied a new opportunity to save myself valuable time. I called over the lady who does my ironing, formerly the Senior Research Fellow in Genetics at the University of Bratislava, and asked her to assist in some of my own experiments.
Needless to say, we both worked long into the evening. My ironing lady exploited the scarcity of good genetic scientists living in my neighbourhood, and for her trouble she charged me double the going rate for a five kilo bag of mixed laundry. However, it was a good investment, as by the end of the day we had put twenty miniature copies of me into the rapid maturation chambers we built that afternoon. Then it was time for a well earned night of rest. Next morning I eagerly scampered up to the lab to see how the clones were coming along. Fishing them out of the specially-concocted soup of vitamins, egg whites and ProVitaLift anti-wrinkle & firming moisturizer, I was rather disappointed with the results. This was not an army of superhumans fit to seize power and dominate the world’s destiny for all eternity. They were not even very good copies of me, as they each exhibited their own characteristics. Nevertheless, they were mine, or me, or something similar to me at least, and I resolved them to teach them everything I knew, as if they were my own children. I hence sat them down, switched on the telly, and turned the channel to BBC News 24.
One of the more promising clones was labelled #5 in batch M, sample A. Christening himself MaV-Eric, he had a forceful personality and a strong inclination to take the initiative. Having decided that four hours was enough time spent watching the news, I was about to order him downstairs to do the washing-up, but before I could do so he jumped up and announced that he was going to go to Davos to sort out the world’s economic malaise. Perhaps I should have rotated the television channels a little more often, as obviously MaV-Eric had been stirred up by the regular updates about what was happening at the World Economic Forum. Naturally I was against his going, as there was a baking dish with three day old lasagne burnt on to it soaking in the sink, and I had recently had to part ways with the dear old former Soviet rocket scientist who used to do my dishes. However, there was no stopping MaV-Eric and he bounded out of the door, intent on getting to Davos and putting the world’s economy to rights. Whilst anxious about what mischief my clone might get into, I consoled myself with the thought that if he did fix the world’s economy, I could rehire my various Eastern European helpers and get my life back on track. Meanwhile I ordered another clone to get on with the dishes.
Off to a bad start. Confused Davos, Swiss ski resort that hosts the World Economic Forum, with Davros, nemesis of Doctor Who and creator of the Daleks. Found Davros in a retirement village just outside of Weston-super-Mare. Took the whole day to hitch-hike there. Not a total waste, as Davros had some interesting ideas about how to run the world differently (amusingly, he always insists on saying ‘rule’ the world differently). He has also made some real scientific breakthroughs in the field of electric transport, having replaced his own legs with wheels that run for ever, create no pollution, and rather marvelously still allow him to get up and down stairs. He offered to make similar modifications to me but I said I wanted to experience my body a little longer before I start to make any changes, which he was initially angry about. He sulked a little while but soon brightened up and agreed to go with me to Davos so he can chip in with his ideas on how to run/rule the world. He has some kind of electric rocket ship so we should be there in a jiffy.
Very disappointing. It took four hours for Davros to climb up the stairs to the rocketship he keeps in his back garden. I asked why he had not installed a Stannah stairlift but he insisted his Dalek wheels were much better for the job. When we finally climbed into the cabin, we found the battery was flat. We’ve just called a cab and are going to travel by Eurostar instead. Davros was deeply embarrassed by the experience and lost his temper at one point, blaming it all on somebody he described as “that nitwit from Gallifrey”. Luckily for me, he was so ashamed that he offered to pay both our fares.
Finally made it to Davos. Met some interesting people on the overnight train from Paris. There was a partner from a law firm called Clifford Chance, an accountant from some business called PwC and the Chief Exec of some oil company called Shell. They said they have all been before and that we should have arranged somewhere to stay long ago, as every hotel would be booked out by now. I said that I still had hope – their predictions had proven wrong in the past. They didn’t find that at all funny and refused to talk to me afterwards. In the end there was nothing to worry about, as the hotels had a lot of last-minute cancellations, mostly from ex-bankers.
Went to listen to what Vladimir Putin had to say, but wasn’t impressed. It seems that the communists have always known about the dangers of the free market which is why they don’t have one and they invested in lots of nukes instead. Now nobody has the money to buy Russian raw materials any more, which they find annoying as they’ve got lots of them and not much of anything else (except the nukes). Davros kept nodding his head and muttering to himself in approving tones, as did the journalists from the Russian news agencies, so Putin had a few sympathizers in the room at least. Went up to Putin after he finished, to ask him what impact the downturn was having on sales of his video, “Let’s Learn Judo With Vladimir Putin.” I started off by aiming a comical ‘judo chop’ at him, but his bodyguards misinterpreted the situation and bundled me to the floor whilst Putin ran from the room, frightened and screaming like a little girl. God knows what that big scaredy cat Putin would do if somebody really launched a serious attack at him, like that guy who threw his shoes at Bush or the fellow who landed an egg on Prescott. Putin would probably have burst into tears. Fortunately Davros had some cunning stun weapon and he knocked the bodyguards all unconscious so we could make a hasty escape.
Just seen Chinese premier, Wen Jiabao, and he wasn’t much better than Putin. Davros didn’t like him and called him ‘Who’ Jiabao, saying he was an alien overlord who had come to Earth to turn us all into mindless drones. Davros also complained that Wen always snubbed him at the alien megalomaniac parties they both got invited too. According to the Chinese Premier, the problems of the world all stem from the lack of self-discipline in Western banks. Presumably to have disciplined banks, they must be run by political appointees, accountable to the government, instead of businessmen, accountable to the bank’s owners. He must be glad that the West seems to be coming around to his way of thinking, by taking taxpayers money and nationalizing the banking industry. I shouted a question about whether Chinese self-discipline also extended to reducing lead paint for children’s toys and melamine in milk. He pretended not to understand but at least I got a giggle out of Davros.
Out in a swanky nightclub. Davros is literally doing a spin on the dancefloor – he dances like he’s a big dodgem but the girls don’t seem to mind him going “bumper to bumper” if you know what I mean. But then I suppose Angela Merkel doesn’t get much action these days, and Davros’ dancing is a lot less creepy than having George W. grabbing you from behind. I started the evening hoping to do some celebrity spotting, but the bar staff said that none of them had come this year. Bono’s taken a break from writing his newspaper column and giving lectures about economic development in the third world to spend time on one of his pet projects – apparently he also sings in some Irish rock band called “You Too?” (which sounds like a stupid name if you ask me). Sharon Stone was busy washing her hair, Michael Douglas was playing golf, and Peter Gabriel was doing whatever he does (the barman wasn’t sure what that is). It seems that hanging out with the world’s elite isn’t so good for sales of albums and films when it becomes obvious they’ve made a mess of things.
Saw Tony Blair on some panel about the values of capitalism. Not bad for a guy who was leader of what was once a socialist party. He talked about all his friends who were investment bankers and said that values were important. Then he said some other words and some other words and I couldn’t work out what he was talking about but he made it sound like he was a nice person who cared deeply about things. I was going to ask him a question about economics but I thought that might be a bit mean, as he obviously doesn’t know anything about that, so I asked him about fluffy bunny rabbits instead. Blair gave a considered answer and concluded that fluffy bunny rabbits were good and we needed to look out for their interests within the context of strong international relationships based on common values including social justice. He took another question from the floor about the impact of the slowdown on economic and political relations in the Middle East, and Blair answered that peace in the Middle East depending on a network of core values between international leaders with the courage to have relationships with common values including social justice. Somebody then asked about the need for market liberalization to assist with the development of Africa, and Blair answered, in considered tones, that we had moved from the old cliches of international aid and needed to forge a new global network, based on shared and common values of social justice, which would have the courage to realize the interests of Africa within the context of strong international relationships. Somebody then asked Tony Blair to remind everyone how many millions he was paid to meet the clients of JP Morgan, the US investment bank, and questioned whether Blair was the right person to talk on a panel about the values of capitalism and the need to improve the regulation of the greedy banking sector. Blair told him to piss off.
I found out Gordon Brown was talking in Davos, so I snuck in the back to listen. I could barely hear him over the snores, and found myself falling into a deep coma moments later. Davros shocked me with his electric cattleprod and dragged me out, only barely conscious. Now I know why Blair wouldn’t let him take over for so long.
Caught a panel with Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook and a lot of other bores from Microsoft, Duetsche Telekom et al. Apparently lots more phones, internet, web 2.0, social networks etc are going to make the world a much much better place. I asked about how a slump in advertising fitted with the dominant business models but somebody else spoke over me and gave an uplifting story about how Twitter and Facebook had been used to enable communication between a group of individuals wanting to illegally restore Burmese architecture without the permission of the ruling junta. Let’s hope Vladimir Putin and Wen Jiabao weren’t listening to the live webcast or they’ll be in blind panic about the threat to their regimes – or maybe not. I caught Mark Zuckerberg after the talk and asked if he really thought Facebook was making the world a better place. He laughed and demanded that I tell him more about myself first. I refused and then he said “you’re not my friend so I’m not going to talk to you”. Davros tried his stun ray on him, but Zuckerberg was surrounded by a forcefield, causing Davros some nasty feedback and making him blow a circuit or two. Davros said he’d had the original idea for Facebook but that Zuckerberg had stolen it whilst they were at college together on the planet Skaros eight hundred years ago. I said that his Facebook page said he was only 24, but Davros just laughed and said I shouldn’t trust anything I read on the internet.
There’s a big cardboard cut-out of Barack Obama in the lobby of one of the luxury hotels. You can stand beside it and have your picture taken with the new leader of the free world. I was going to wait in line but got fed up when Gordon Brown pushed ahead of me in the queue. Brown put his arm around the cutout, but when he did, I could swear I saw the cutout yawning.
Bumped into Rupert Murdoch in the hotel bar, and he was chatting with his pal, Al Gore. Murdoch was talking about how his new 3D, high-definition television was so good, it was like the person was in the room. Davros butted in and asked Gore if he could help him with his revolutionary designs for electric transport. Gore looked bemused and said nobody would ever take his ideas seriously. That upset Davros and he spat back that they’d take it as seriously as a man who couldn’t beat George W. Bush in an election and who since then has spent his time flying all over the world to talk about the threat of climate change. Murdoch cut in but before he could make his point, Davros barked at him that if his high-def TV was so good, then why didn’t he stay at home and communicate through his satellite link, instead of coming all the way to Switzerland in person. I made some joke about ‘inconvenient truths’ as I dragged Davros away, but nobody laughed.
Looked at the signage around the World Economic Forum: “entrepreneurship in the global public interest”. Hmmm. The same people have been coming here, serving the global public interest for over thirty years. Imagine the mess the world would be in without them. Now imagine the mess the world is in with them. Then take a look at the expense accounts to get all these people to this up-market ski resort. It makes me wonder if the world would be a better place if they all stayed home and did something useful instead. Then again, maybe these people don’t do anything useful – their skill is getting ahead in the global rat race, not in reforming it. Davros is fed up because nobody is interested in his electric wheels and is threatening to obliterate the whole town as an act of revenge. I’m trying to persuade him to go back to Weston-super-Mare and have a cup of tea. But before I do I’m going to enjoy the one thing this town is good for, and the one thing that all these world leaders do seem to be able to deliver: a long downhill slide.
Those were the highlights from my clone, MaV-Eric, who spent the week at the World Economic Forum at Davos. I do hope he is not going to go next year, as it sounds like he does not really understand what globalization is all about. Perhaps instead of making him watch TV news, I should have introduced him to my next-door neighbour, the former economics professor from the University of Warsaw. I would have had him over to talk to the clones, but I did not want to disturb him. He has been working the night shift, stacking shelves at Asda, which is the only job he can get now his building skills are no longer needed by the once rampant hordes of buy-to-let “property developers”.
That is all from me, as I am far too busy to write any more on this blog. All the time I saved by getting my new clones to do the household chores has been spent investigating options to outsource my blogging. Apparently there’s a guy in the Philippines who will ghost-write my blog for less than ten cents per thousand words. That sounds like a good deal to me, but first I will experiment with allowing a monkey to do it by hitting a keyboard randomly. According to the internet, Shakespeare used monkeys to write all his plays. The “Do It With Monkeys” group on Facebook also says monkeys do no worse than average when it comes to making investment decisions. If MaV-Eric does go back to Davos next year, perhaps he should take some monkeys with him and see what mischief they get up to. After all, they are unlikely to make things worse than they already are.

The Netherlands (Nederland in Dutch) is a country in the northwest of Europe. It borders the North Sea, Belgium and Germany. It is also refered to by the collective name of its two main provinces: Holland.
The country is part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. It has been a constitutional monarchy since 1815. Between 1648 and 1806 the country was a republic.
Head of state is Queen Beatrix of the House of Orange-Nassau. (See also the Dutch monarchy). Formally, she appoints the members of the government. In practice, she normally appoints, after each election, the choices of the leader of the biggest political party in the parliament.
The parliament consists of two houses. Elections for the Lower House take place every four years, or earlier when the Lower House has taken a no confidence motion against the government. The next elections will take place in May 2002.
The head of the government is the Prime Minister. Wim Kok, leader of the social-democratic Partij van de Arbeid, has hold this office since 1994.
The capital of the Netherlands is Amsterdam, but the seat of government is in The Hague (Den Haag or 's-Gravenhage in Dutch).
The Netherlands is a founding member of the European Union, the Benelux and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
It is one of the most densely populated countries in the world, having 16 million inhabitants on a piece of land of about 300 by 150 kilometers (approx. 41,000 square kilometers). One remarkable aspect of the Netherlands is the flatness of the country. About half the country is less than 1 meter above sea level, some parts of it are actually below sea level. The highest point, the Vaalserberg, is 321m high. The low areas are protected by dikes and sea walls. Much of the land, for example the whole of Flevoland, has been reclaimed from the sea - these areas of reclaimed land are known as polders.
Local time is UTC+1. (From the last sunday in March till the last sunday in October: UTC+2).
On May 4 the dead of World War II are remembered by two minute's silence.
There are two official languages: Dutch and the Frisian language, which is spoken in the northern province of Friesland. Main religions are Catholicism (18% in 1999) and Protestantism (15%). 63% of the Dutch don't consider themselves as member of a church.
The Dutch are known as a tolerant people. Their image abroad is mainly based on trade, tulips, windmills, wooden shoes, cheese (Edam, Gouda, Leiden, Limburger) and Delftware pottery. More recently the socially libertine Dutch policies on drugs, prostitution, gay marriage and euthanasia have received international attention; Amsterdam is widely perceived abroad as a 'naughty' city.
The Dutch national anthem is the Wilhelmus, one of the oldest in the world.
Country of Erasmus of Rotterdam and Spinoza: all of Descartes' major work was done in Holland.

rhein property has since 2004 procured luxurious holiday properties with an outstanding expertise. from winter destinations such as kitzbühel, st. moritz, gstaad, verbier and zermatt, to the summer destinations in eivissa, mallorca, st. tropez und italy among others.
our task was to develop a logo for the holding company that would harmonise with the exclusive logos we had already designed for the st. moritz and kitzbühel branches of the company.
luxury is often symbolised through animals.
the animalistic theme was also our natural starting point, being a direct link to the logos for kitzbühel- and st. moritz lodges. for us the lion was highly interesting. an animal that has been depicted ever since the stone age. symbolising wealth, power and royalty, the lion is – with no wonder – the most favoured heraldic animal of all time.
unfortunately, we did not manage to win through with our animalistic approach. instead we pursued a typographic approach sporting the initials r and s from the two founders of the company. this resulted in a signet-like design where the r and s were abstracted through subtraction.

We are delighted to be sending you another edition of the MOFET ITEC Portal update with a selection of the latest articles and significant trends published in academic journals focusing on teacher education, pedagogy and instruction.
We would like to draw your attention to the new MOFET ITEC Twitter page which will keep you abreast of everything pertaining to teacher education throughout the world.
Through Twitter, we hope to create an informal arena in which teacher educators, researchers, and educators can engage in a fruitful dialog. Please feel free to join our followers on Twitter.
As always, we welcome your comments and insights.
The purpose of this article is studying how leaders learn to cultivate mathematically rich professional development environments. The authors adapted two frameworks from classroom-based research to support leaders’ understanding of facilitation of mathematics professional development: sociomathematical norms and practices for orchestrating productive discussion. They describe the use of these frameworks in their work and argue for a third framework—the mathematical knowledge for teaching. 24 NW leaders and 12 SW leaders participated in the seminars developed by the authors.
Voices Less Silenced: What Do Veteran Teachers Value in School–University Partnerships and Initial Teacher Preparation?
The purpose of this article is to describe how veteran teachers understand and experience the development of a Professional Development School (PDS) partnership. Furthermore, it describes how they participate in initial teacher preparation program reform. The author presents a case, which examines the voices and participation of veteran teachers in developing a PDS in depth. Evidence from this study demonstrated significant findings about what veteran teachers valued in initial teacher preparation in this particular case: character, structure, and multiple forms of collaboration.
This study examined the beliefs about classroom management that preservice teachers developed during their university coursework. It also examined whether those beliefs changed as a result of their student teaching experiences. 71 preservice teachers participated in the study. Results indicated preservice teachers demonstrated inconsistent beliefs with regard to philosophies of classroom management developed as part of university coursework.
Formative assessment provides a means to successfully scaffold learning. Unfortunately, few teachers understand the pedagogical implications of such scaffolding or their role in utilizing formative assessments. The purpose of this study was to develop an understanding of the experience of being a teacher that is seeking to improve learning through formative assessment and using that understanding to improve our practices in teacher education.
This paper discusses the development and implementation of a technology-supportedstudent teacher performance assessment that supports integration with a larger electronic assessment system. Of the 20 supervisors who were invited to the field test, 18 completed the survey and 8 participated in the focus group. Supervisors were overwhelmingly positive about the experience, the value of the updated assessments, and the ongoing plans to support field observations with mobile technologies. However, issues related to training, support, and trust loom largely for successful adoption, diffusion, and successful use of technology-supported assessments.
The widespread and increasing use of cooperative learning is one of the great success stories of social and educational psychology. Its success largely rests on the relationships among theory, research, and practice. Social interdependence theory provides a foundation on which cooperative learning is built. The purpose of this article is to describe how social and educational psychology has contributed to educational practice.

Rita Mae Brown is the bestselling author of the Sneaky Pie Brown series; the Sister Jane series; the Runnymede books, including Six of One and Cakewalk; A Nose for Justice and Murder Unleashed; Rubyfruit Jungle; and In Her Day, as well as several other novels. An Emmy-nominated screenwriter and a poet, Brown lives in Afton, Virginia.
Mary Minor Harristeen AKA Harry is run off the road by the caregiver, Barbara, for the former governor Sam Halloway. When Harry sees the car has stopped, she discovers that the driver is dead. Barbara has an illegal drug in her system and that sends everyone into a tailspin that someone is after Sam. Susan, Harry’s granddaughter and her cousin, Edward, also in politics, become quite concerned for their own safety. At least that is what I think is happening. I found this sequence a little complicated and hard to follow.
At least the cats and dogs spoke to me! In the flashbacks to the 1800 where a set of violent actions and slaves, (trying not to giveaway too much plot details), there is a corgi named Piglet, who was just adorable. I still couldn’t figure out parts of the plot and sequences until I read the afterword. My mother’s favorite story was Rubyfruit Jungle and we read a lot of Rita Mae Brown’s books throughout the years, but this one was just strange for me. I did enjoy the characters and cozy mystery aspect of all Rita Mae Brown’s Books.

Did you all meet the new BoSS earlier today? If you missed him, no stress. He's not a great deal changed in any event.
In sum, as I said, less is more... more or less. From here on out the BoSS isn't going to be an attempt to talk about every review copy that comes through the door with designs on a write-up here on the blog. It's going to be shorter, yes - but surely succinctness is no ill thing - yet I also mean for it also to bear a closer relation to those reviews and discussions that do filter through to the front page of The Speculative Scotsman.
I for one am pretty pleased with how things are shaping up. And with the BoSS on hiatus since mid-December, the pickings aren't exactly slim: I've got a good lot of books to run down in this first edition of the new and (hopefully) improved Bag o' Speculative Swag.
The Blurb: To honour the magnificent career of Jack Vance, one unparalleled in achievement and impact, George R.R. Martin and Gardner Dozois, with the full cooperation of Vance, his family, and his agents, have created a Jack Vance tribute anthology: Songs of the Dying Earth. The best of today's fantasy writers to return to the unique and evocative milieu of The Dying Earth, from which they and so many others have drawn so much inspiration, to create their own brand-new adventures in the world of Jack Vance’s greatest novel.
This book contains original stories from George R. R. Martin, Neil Gaiman, Dan Simmons, Elizabeth Moon, Tanith Lee, Tad Williams, Kage Baker, and Robert Silverberg, along with fifteen others, and an introduction by Dean Koontz.
A Scotsman's Thoughts: Oh, glory be! I've had a copy of the UK edition of Songs on the Dying Earth in pride of place on my bookshelves since it came out hereabouts, sat right next to my copy of the Fantasy Masterworks edition of Tales of the Dying Earth.
Criminal, I know. But if I ever needed a kick in the arse, a review copy of Tor's new US edition of Songs of the Dying Earth is it. Now featuring an original novella by one of my favourite authors, he of Hyperion and The Terror, Dan "The Man" Simmons. And that's on top of all the other genre greats featured in this lavish anthology. Give me a wee while to find my footing with the original Jack Vance novels - believe me, I've tried (and invariably failed) to read a few of these stories without that grounding - and sure enough I'll be ploughing on through this baby.
The Blurb: Eva Forge is the last paladin of a dead God. Morgan, God of battle and champion of the Fraterdom, was assassinated by his jealous brother, Amon. Over time, the Cult of Morgan has been surpassed by other gods, his blessings ignored in favour of brighter technologies and more mechanical miracles. Eva was the last child dedicated to the Cult of Morgan, forsaken by her parents and forgotten by her family. Now she watches as her new family, her Cult, crumbles all around her.
A Scotsman's Thoughts: I don't know that I've ever truly loved steampunk. Certainly the aesthetic lends itself to fantastic imagery and fascinating invention, but the stories so often told in novels with a steampunky twist to them leave me cold as often as not. See The Bookman, by Lavie Tidhar, whose first novel I'd expected to adore. Alas.
So why am I considering reading The Horns of Ruin? Well, there's a first time for everything, isn't there? And I know, as per the review on the Amazon listing, that the Mad Hatter liked it. That's recommendation enough for me.
The Blurb: The colony was founded seventy years ago. The plan was originally to mine silver, but there turned out not to be any. Now an uneasy peace exists on the island, between the colonists and the once-noble met'Oc, a family in exile on a remote stronghold for their role in a vaguely remembered civil war. The met'Oc are tolerated, in spite of occasional cattle stealing raids, since they alone possess the weapons considered necessary protection in the event of the island's savages becoming hostile. Intelligent, resourceful, and determined, Gignomai is the youngest brother in the current generation of met'Oc. He is about to realise exactly what is expected of him; and what it means to defy his family.
A Scotsman's Thoughts: The highlight of the week's haul, without a doubt. The Hammer caught me quite by surprise. It doesn't seem so long ago I powered through The Folding Knife to find one of the most surprising, non-traditional fantasies of 2010. Immediately after finished that novel I started plotting a free week to have a go at K. J. Parker's Engineer trilogy... and then The Hammer plopped through the letterbox.
Wherever did the intervening months go, I wonder?
Well, wherever they disappeared off to, the bastards, the new K. J. Parker has jumped straight to the top of the TBR. Expect a full review in advance of The Hammer's release date.
The Blurb: The violence of an age-old war casts a long shadow. It falls on a world where mercy is weakness and conflict is a way of life. Young Malian is being trained to rule. Her people garrison the mountain range known as the Wall of Night against an ancient enemy, keeping a tide of shadow from the rest of their world.
Malian is expected to uphold this tradition, yet she's known little of real danger until the enemy launches a direct attack upon her fortress home. In the darkest part of the night, the Keep of Winds becomes a bloodbath. Women and children, warriors and priests, are slain by creatures with twisted magic flowing in their veins. And as the castle wakes to chaos, Malian flees deep into the Old Keep, her life at stake. Then when the danger is greatest, her own hidden magic flares into life.
A Scotsman's Thoughts: "A richly told tale of strange magic, dark treachery and conflicting loyalties, set in a well realized world," blurbs Robin Hobb. For whatever that's worth; I haven't read any Robin Hobb. But his (hers?) is a name I respect, and coming from a publisher I trust, a publisher I have to thank for some of 2010's best speculative fiction, I'm keen to give The Heir of Night a chance.
The Blurb: Ilse Zhalina is the daughter of one of Melnek’s more prominent merchants. She has lived most of her life surrounded by the trappings of wealth and privilege. Many would consider hers a happy lot. But there are dark secrets, especially in the best of families. Ilse has learned that for a young woman of her beauty and social station, to be passive and silent is the best way to survive.
And it will lead her to Raul Kosenmark, master of one of the land’s most notorious pleasure houses.. and who is, as Ilse discovers, a puppetmaster of a different sort altogether. Ilse discovers a world where every pleasure has a price and there are levels of magic and intrigue she once thought unimaginable. She also finds the other half of her heart.
A Scotsman's Thoughts: The week's wildcard. Passion Play has borne several comparisons to Jacqueline Carey's well-received Kushiel novels, and Liviu Suciu of Fantasy Book Critic absolutely adored it.
Then again he and I have been at odds in our judgement of many things, not least The Left Hand of God - that vile specimen of a fantasy novel (forgive me) - and going off of the synopsis, this book sounds entirely outside of my usual comfort zone. So we'll see. I mean to give it the old once-over in any event.
That's it for this week. But never fear: the nearly-new and probably only moderately improved BoSS will be back at the same bat-time next week, in the same bat-place. See you then!
Now, to get a start on The Hammer. Gignomai, did you say?
Forget Koontz and forget his book “What the Night Knows” (a ghost vengeance story, been there, done that), instead read a book that’s been BANNED like “America Deceived II” by E.A. Blayre III.

DAVAO CITY – US President Barack Obama phoned presumptive president-elect Rodrigo Duterte on Tuesday to congratulate him, the office of the White House’s press secretary said.
“President Obama spoke by phone (Tuesday) with presumptive President-elect Rodrigo Duterte of the Philippines to convey his congratulations,” said a statement from the office of Secretary Josh Earnest which was posted on its website.
The American President also praised the successful election which has documented high voter participation, the statement added.
“President Obama noted that the successful election and record voter participation were emblematic of the Philippines’ vibrant democracy,” it said.
Christopher “Bong” Go, Duterte’s closest aide and executive assistant, confirmed to INQUIRER.net that Obama and Duterte spoke by phone on Tuesday night.
Go said Obama called Duterte at 11:15 p.m. Their conversation, he said, lasted for six minutes.
Sought about the topic of their conversation, Go said Obama extended his congratulations to Duterte. Go did not provide any other details.
The tough-talking mayor has cemented his wide lead in the presidential race as he is close to getting 16 million votes.
Duterte asks Aquino, Trillanes: How did PH lose Scarborough Shoal?

We all know that this time of year in the Pacific Northwest brings lots of rain, sometimes snow and this year several days of high wind! These things all impact driving conditions, visibility on the road and make winter weather driving more challenging for all.
Here at McCollum Auto Body, this time of year brings many people to our facility for unfortunate driving accidents….most of which are caused by the challenges of driving during winter weather.
We hope you have a safe and Happy Holiday season!!

Nevada’s Uniqueness | Corporate Service Center, Inc.
Nevada is renowned as the best business climate in the nation. Here’s why.
Many people are unaware that each of the fifty states writes its own unique statutes regarding corporate structuring, operational requirements, legal protection and personal privacy protection. No state in the union has more business-friendly incorporation statutes than the state of Nevada. You don’t need to be based in Nevada in order to incorporate your business. Almost without exception, you may form your corporate entity in Nevada even though you operate your company in another state. Doing so usually provides the individual business owner with maximum asset protection and can even have positive tax implications.
The Nevada legislature meets only every two years. State legislators are not professional politicians, but are regular citizens with backgrounds in business, education, law, etc.

There's an easy way to stay awake and alert. It's called coffee.
Which is why it's tempting to down a cup (or two, or three) when you're nodding off at work, or when you wake up in the morning feeling not quite refreshed.
Unfortunately, consuming large quantities of caffeine comes with risks.
What constitutes large quantities depends on the individual, but in general, more than 5-600 milligrams (or four cups) a day may cause side effects including insomnia, nervousness, and stomach problems.
Even if you consume less than that, the energy boost from coffee wears off after a few hours, leaving you as tired as you were before, if not more so.
Fortunately, there are plenty of alternative ways to perk yourself up — beyond simply sleeping more at night. Below, we've complied a list of scientifically backed ways to stay alert without consuming any caffeine at all.
This is an update of an article originally posted by Julia Calderone.
As long as it's not for too long or too close to bedtime, napping for five to 25 minutes about six to seven hours before you'd normally go to bed is a great way to recharge.
Going much longer than that means the post-sleep grogginess also known as "sleep inertia" will kick in, leaving you sluggish after you wake. Longer naps — of up to an hour — can sometimes be worth it, as long as you can afford the extra time to push through that groggy after-glow.
Low blood sugar can make you feel foggy and lethargic. Large meals can have the same effect, because digestion takes energy (ahem, food coma). If you try to mask this effect with sugary foods and caffeine, you'll get a momentary high before a rapid crash.
Eating small snacks packed with certain nutrients, such as iron, and good fats is a great way to get the benefits of a natural buzz. One study found that a high-fiber breakfast provided the greatest boost in alertness, and high-quality proteins — like those found in eggs— are also important. But there are a wide variety of foods that can help keep your energy levels high throughout the day.
Deep breathing also decreases stress and anxiety, which in turn helps to boost your immune system, keeping you healthy and strong. But make sure you are practicing deep belly breathing to reap the benefits. Try one six-second exercise from a former Googler here.
Some studies of drowsy drivers have also found that music — especially loud music— can help keep people alert, though the effect may not be long-lasting. And certain playlists might be better than others: "The more varied the music," noted a 2004 review, "the more [stimulating] it is."
It's not necessarily a bad habit. Keeping your mouth busy seems to keep your mind alert as well. Some studies have suggested that chewing gum might be an effective way to reduce daytime sleepiness, perhaps because the act of chewing somehow increases circulation and activates certain regions of the brain.
And if you dance to your favorite tunes, you'll get the extra energy-boosting benefits of music (see No. 7).
Here's one more reason to check out those cat videos during the workday: Humor can give you an energy boost.
One study found that college students who watched about 12 minutes of clips from comedy routines felt more energetic afterward than those who didn't watch the clips.
Consider keeping a stash of herbal oil in your desk drawer. Studies have found that people who sniff rosemary or rosemary oil feel more alert, "fresher," and more relaxed. They may even perform better on tests of cognitive ability, compared to people who sniff lavender oil or don't smell anything.
Looking at one target, such as a computer screen, for a long time can hurt your eyes and make you struggle to keep them open.
As much as 95% of Americans are at risk for so-called computer vision syndrome — especially those who work in an office. All that screen time can cause eye irritation and dryness, eye strain, blurred or double vision, headache, and shoulder and neck pain.

Abilene, Kan. – RadioShack will establish a retail presence in nine ALCO discount variety stores in October.
The move is part of a co-branding retail franchise agreement with ALCO parent Duckwall-ALCO, which operates 254 stores throughout the central U.S. The arrangement will allow ALCO to expand its CE assortment to include RadioShack’s brand and product lines, while creating a new channel opportunity for RadioShack in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas and North Dakota, where the nine full-line stores are located.
The rollout follows a successful test of the concept at an ALCO store here, and will be followed by additional locations by year’s end.
Dale said if results follow those of the Abilene test, he expects the co-branding agreement to expand to additional ALCO stores in 2007.

Editor’s Note: Starting Line columnist Doug Porter is taking a few days off. Since he’s spent the last six months flogging the importance of the County of San Diego primaries (last day to vote is June 5), we’re reprinting some of his early observations. Updated parts of these stories are in red.
It’s a long-shot for challengers in these races. The incumbents all have name recognition and significant support from the minority of citizens who actually benefit from the status quo. They have all benefited from not having to face the consequences of their (in)actions thanks to primary elections with typically low and conservative-skewing turnouts.
Make that five nine months with no action since I wrote the above. If you or I lied in court, somehow I don’t think it would take five nine months to resolve the case.
Ernie needs our help to raise $11,260 by 12/31. Every dollar – big or small count – that is why I am personally making an appeal – our contribution today can help keep hundreds of thousands of dollars from these national PACs out of San Diego. I personally confirmed this is real.
Note: Since this was published, the San Diego Free Press endorsed Omar Passons for District 4 Supervisor.
My intention with these interviews was to simply introduce each of them, leaving aside any enmity I may have encountered along the way.
District 2’s Supervisor Bill Horn is also termed out this year. His district, covering the northern reaches of the county is considered safely Republican. Oceanside City Councilwoman Esther Sanchez is the Democratic candidate. The Democratic candidates are Michelle Gomez and Jacqueline Arsivaud.
Note: Since this was published, the San Diego Free Press endorsed Michelle Gomez.
Oceanside Council member Jerry Kern and San Marcos Mayor Jim Desmond are the GOP candidates. Whichever one of them gets the County Party’s endorsement on April 9, will likely be the winner in that contest. Jim Desmond received the GOP’s blessing.

Brady Seals - "Been There, Drunk That"
Here's the second single from Brady Seals. The former lead singer of Little Texas and Hot Apple Pie chose the single from his great country album for adults, Play Time. Is the single (and thus the album) worth listening to? Will radio play it?
With multiple hits under his belt as a member of Little Texas and Hot Apple Pie (and as a solo artist) Brady Seals has returned to the airwaves and stores with a fun new album "Play Time." We caught up with Brady to discuss his career and the new album.

The children of all members shall be entitled to the use of the facilities of the Association, without having actual membership, until they attain the age of eighteen (18) years.

"A member in good standing that becomes a full time member of the armed forces shall be exempt of dues, and will be carried on the membership roster until he/she is mustered out of the armed forces. Said member shall be obligated to pay dues the beginning of the next calendar year."

* The fees for the months of December and January include the balance of the current year plus the $150.00 renewal fee for the following year.

To make winter more pleasant, two popular slots producers – IGT and Play ‘N Go launched their two new creations.
The Chinese expression “Gong xi fa cai” is a congratulation with the New Year in Mandarin dialect. The specialists of the company IGT gave such a name to their new video slot.
The slot machine Gong Xi Fa Cai is a five-reel, fifty- payline slot with fifteen cells for images on the main screen.
Each line can have a bet from 50p to 75p. There is also a mandatory bonus bet of 25p. So at stake, you may have from 75 to 375 chips. The online gaming machine has several gameplay features: a paid chain of simple and advanced symbols, four cumulative jackpots, free spins and so on.
Basic symbol brings winnings, making continuous chains of multiple identical items. It always begins with the first column. The payout depends on the coefficient laid down for each of the possible combinations. It can comprise from x5 and up to x600. It is calculated by multiplying this figure by the bet on the line.
There may be multiple winnings in one spin, but always the most valuable option on each line is used first of all. On the reels of the slot, you will see costumes, used in festive processions in China, and card denominations from ten to Ace.
In the Free Spins feature, you are granted with eight rounds at the bet of the casino.
Gong Xi Fa Cai has four progressive jackpots: Mini, Minor, Major and Maxi. You will need to choose Chinese lanterns, collecting different coloured stones. When you get three of the same colour, you become the owner of the cumulative jackpot that corresponds to its type. If you want to know more, look through the Gong Xi Fa Cai slot review.
This new online slot at the Eastern theme consists of 5 reels and has many fascinating gaming features, such as wild and scatter symbols, free spins and The second chance game. Beautifully drawn background is perfect for the image of the main character of the game, Jade Magician. Among other characters, you will meet Dragon, hammer, white tiger, Hawk and many others.
In the main game, users can activate up to 15 lines, and bet up to 5 coins per line. If the player has 3 scatter symbols, he will be awarded 5 free spins, during which the symbols become wild, increasing the possibility of forming winning combinations. Free spins can be rerun, and the maximum number is 50. Any extra information is available in the Jade Magician slot review.
It is possible to play Gong Xi Fa Cai at Casinoland. If you are a fan of some other game manufacturers like WMS, NetEnt, NextGen Gaming, Microgaming and so on, you can find their slots here too.

When one smells a little bit of blood, it is ok, but to have blood everywhere, the smell is very nauseating and very hanyir (I don’t know how to translate this)…The hospital personnel were all robed up and had masks on, and my grandpa had on an oxygen mask, but I was left with nothing…I ended up breathing through my mouth instead, while looking the other way…They later drew the curtains, but I could still hear them!
Hey, just in case you didn't realize this, you ave your mum's heart.
What your mum did is the best thing to do. You see, broken hearts won't care any other thing, including him/herself. The best to have at times like this is someone's companionship.
It must be very hard for the lady, became a widow after a month of living as a wife.
Another gem from you...u go girl.
What u and ur mom did...great stuff.
I am sure for the two ladies, they will also remember u and ur mom for what both of you did.
Malaysians have a lot to learn from the lines above.
I take my hat off to you and your mom.
you and mom are real gems. now we know the quality you possess in you comes very much from the way you were brought up. your mom and dad deserve some acknowledgement, way higher than some datukship.
u and ur mom are angels in disguise! both of them were indeed blessed (despite the reason being there) that their path crossed w u and ur mom tht night.
What you learned in 17 years far surpasses the 99.9999 percent of adults Malaysians out there, who may never grasp the meaning of life to the very end. It's true and it's sad.
Keep this feeling and never let it go. And go thank your parents. They not only brought you up right Daph --but better than right.
And it's got nothing to do with being a Bahai or facing Mecca supplicating 5 times a day. It's got to do with soul. God Bless you girl..
Thanks for sharing this - it gives others hope in this world that has somehow forgotten to 'love thy neighbour'. Your mother and you have brought out the spirit of common humanity in all of us. Both of you are truly a light to others - shine on.
Like you said: "Boleh gila oooh..."
And yes, ditto on religion...I think as long as we believe in a bigger force (whatever we may call Him/Her/It), I think we'll do fine...It keeps our own lives in perspective, no?
What an apt and coincidental name! Thank you for coming over and leaving a comment...It is most appreciated, so thanks a lot!
I'm touch to read what you have written.The world will be a much better place to live in if there are more people like your mum and you.Keep it up.

Zak Ketterson has been voted as the Male Skier of the Year for the CCSA. Ketterson was one of the most consistent skiers during his entire Junior year season. Coming off a strong 17/18 season where he finished as the 4th ranked CCSA skier, he moved up to take the top spot in the CCSA, over 9 points in front of the next finisher. Ketterson started the year off strong, claiming the top collegiate spot in both of the classic races at the US Senior National Championships in Craftsbury, VT. He continued on his dominant form during the regular season, winning every CCSA race he started. Ketterson capped off his season with two separate All-American performances at the NCAA National Championships finishing 10th in the individual start skate race and 7th in the mass start classic race. With one more year of eligibility remaining, Ketterson will have high hopes for the 19/20 ski season!
Abigail Jarzin had a breakout freshman year with the Wildcats. Coming in from the Ashwaubenon Nordic Ski Team based in Green Bay, WI, Jarzin was expecting to be one of the top competitors in the region. She met and surpassed those expectations by being the top-ranked CCSA skier for the entire season. After a slow start to the season, Jarzin began to pick up momentum through January and February winning 3/6 qualifier races that she entered and finished on the podium in all 6 events. That torrid pace did not stop at the NCAA National Championships as she earned her first All-American accolades. She finished 7th in the individual start skate race. Jardin has a bright future in front of her and will one to watch for the remainder of her collegiate career.
Sten Fjeldheim has also been named as the CCSA Coach of the year for both Men and Women. This is Fjeldheim’s 32nd season at the helm of the Nordic Team. Both the men’s and women’s team dominated the central region, consistently have athletes in both the men’s and women’s events atop the podium. Notable team accomplishments from this season include winning the College Cup at the US National Championships and finished as the 4th place Nordic team at the NCAA Championships. Fjeldheim also achieved a big milestone after the NCAA championships. The Wildcats finished with 6 All-American performances, which pushes Fjeldheim to 103 total All-Americans. Congratulations to a future Hall of Fame coach for another outstanding season.

My first time playing with Seng Bock and I learnt that he was preparing for the upcoming ISBG games. Hmm, someone to look out for when our company takes part in it! Was leading late in the game until my opponent bingoed with PATerNAL(68) using two blanks! Had lots of consonants left and he finished first to add 8 points to his final score to overtake me.
L 373-380, -7. 0W 1L (Accum spread -7).
Sebastian is Seng Bock's colleague. Was trailing far behind when he bingoed three times in alternate turns: bIPLANE(86), BOILERS(76) and DESTINED(78)! Caught up a little bit when I bingoed with FeNITAR(78) but it was too late!
L 380-455, -75. 0W 2L (Accum spread -82).
Played with Arul before at the last LBH cup and I think he must be the most well equipped player in the tournament, with his own board, tiles and clock! He even had extra clocks in his bag that he wanted to sell! Managed to make many high score moves including a bingo with READIER(80) back hooking to an existing DEN. Arul bingoed late in the game with eTAERIO(67) but it was too late. Had ABGNOOS for my rack at one time and saw the bingo in it but didn't put it down as I was not sure of it.
W 412-284, +128. 1W 2L (Accum spread +46).
Played with Aloysius before at the last Nationals. A bingoless game but I managed to make many high scoring moves while not opening up for my opponent!
W 338-284, +54. 2W 2L (Accum spread +100).
Played with Catherine before at the NTU open a few years ago. Bingoed first with ASTRIDE(65) and Catherine bingoed later with sINGLES(78). Had AENPSTU on my rack at one turn but missed the two possible anagrams and put UNTAPES* instead that was challenged off! After that, I made many low scoring moves that did not help to open up the board and lost badly in the end.
L 266-422, -156. 2W 3L (Accum spread -56).

Did you know that not all dogs can swim? There are dogs that have been bred for the water, like my friend Mooch the Labrador, but some dogs might need lessons, and others like Coco the Bulldog, just can’t — ever. If your dog is hesitant about the water follow their lead, they know what they are barking about. Most dogs can be trained to swim with patience and encouragement. Ask your dog trainer or animal behavior expert for tips.
I have my very own life vest, it’s bright orange, but they make them in all sizes and colors and you can buy them at major retailers like Kohl’s and or more specialized shops like WAG.com. Just because a dog’s got a vest doesn’t mean you can take your eyes off him, he can still get over-tired or snagged up.
OK, your dog can swim and has a jazzy life vest like mine, but getting out of the water with a wet coat is much harder than even the hairiest human would think. Products like Scamper Ramp or Doggie Docks will help make sure that we can get out with dignity.
Poolside smarts also includes remembering not to clip our nails too short because the concrete will wear them down pretty fast and watch our pads on the hot deck – they can burn. When we’re done, remember to rinse off the chlorine and dry out our ears just like you do for yourself.
Oh yeah, those guys with the whistle and the orange swim suits, when they toot it twice it means no running – for anyone, even us. Running and safe-pool practice just don’t mix. Accidents happen so make a plan; know where the local vets are if you are far from home. And, unless you have special training, use a flotation device to assist a dog in trouble – even a small dog can become very difficult to manage when he is frightened in the water. And, there are many sad stories of our people drowning while trying to save us.
Did you know The American Red Cross where so many human learn to swim also offers courses on Pet First Aid? Just go to RedCross.org to find a class near you.
And a word about other pets, horses can swim, ferrets can swim, chickens can swim and as for you cats, I have heard of cats that can swim, but just a rare few and really only if they must.
Finally, please take a look at Saving Grace a charitable organization established in the memory of Grace, a Chihuahua who sadly drowned in a family pool and dedicated to increase awareness about pets and water safety.
Stay safe! Tweet me your fun-the-sun pics @PawsPR!

and Biba runs out to get her.
... there is no movement that is not infinite [...] the movement of the infinite can occur only by means of affect, passion, love, in a becoming that is the girl, but without reference to any kind of 'mediation' [...] movement as such eludes any mediating perception because it is already effectuated at every moment, and the dancer or lover finds him- or herself already 'awake and walking' the second he or she falls down, and even the instant he or she leaps. Movement, like the girl as a fugitive being, cannot be perceived."

It all started 15 years ago when Ido Magal’s newborn nephew had a bad diaper rash and nothing seemed to help. “As an herbalist and plant chemistry expert, I always wanted to help people feel good through aromatherapy,” Magal reveals. Since he had studied plant medicine and developed products using natural, local ingredients, he decided to prepare a special cream for his nephew. His concoction worked like magic, and its virtues spread quickly by word of mouth among new mothers. Before he knew it, his phone didn’t stop ringing with requests for his diaper cream!
What began as a family business has now progressed into an internationally recognized natural and organic skincare company.
Lavido is committed to cutting-edge technologies, provided they meet strict natural guidelines with extraction methods used to ensure a highly effective product. Lavido’s skincare products are not only natural and made with certified organic ingredients, they are all dermatologically tested and clinically proven to ensure that they are not just better for your skin, but that they are effective as well. “I always put a great deal of emphasis on the quality of the plant extractions. Our ingredients are always organic, non-GMO, formulated with cold-pressed, diffused and infused organic essential oils,” Magal notes.
Since 2015, Magal decided to grow the company by expanding into the international market. “We had to adapt the products, test them, find the right market,” he explains. Lavido opened a U.S. office in 2015 and today its products are already being sold at independent stores, perfumeries, apothecary stores, Euro-style pharmacies, boutique stores and small-to-medium chains across the United States.
Magal points out that he is proud of the fact that Lavido products are made in Israel and makes a point of emphasizing this fact on the U.S. packaging. “Our products’ labels include Hebrew and their country of origin is marked clearly. I believe that being true to ourselves is what will bring us a blessing,” he affirms.
Its founder continues to insist on producing the same high-quality products as when he was personally manufacturing them in his kitchen. By sourcing only the highest quality natural and organic herb, fruit, vegetable and nut oils, and utilizing top-notch traditional and cutting-edge technologies, the sky is the limit for Lavido.
At the beginning of Lavido’s international breakthrough, Ido Magal decided to approach the Daroma-Tzafona Fund, which supports small businesses in Israel’s geographic periphery. “They liked the product and believed in the brand,” Magal says of his initial meeting with the Daroma-Tzafona team. The Fund decided to support Lavido, and their help extended far beyond Magal’s wildest dreams.
The Daroma-Tzafona Fund currently supports over 500 SMEs in Israel’s outlying regions, providing them with a variety of unique business tools. Created as a non-profit company, Daroma-Tzafona is a unique partnership of Israeli industrialists and philanthropists, led by Eitan Wertheimer, the Jewish Agency for Israel and the Jewish Federations of North America. Its mission is to transform the landscape of economic opportunity and bring sustainable socioeconomic change to the Negev and Galilee, a vital component for strengthening Israel’s economy.

If you’re going to Colombia, you may have questions about money. You should find the essentials covered in this financial guide. Learn the basics on spending, currency, and exchanging cash in Colombia.
The peso is the currency of Colombia. Unlike several other South American countries, Colombia will not accept U.S. dollars as payment. Plan to use only pesos throughout your stay.
COP coins Frequently used coins include the 50, 100, 200, 500 and 1,000 peso coins. The 20 peso coin is in circulation, but is rarely used due to its tiny value. Coins lower than 20 pesos are no longer produced.
COP banknotes Bank notes are printed in denominations of 1,000, 2,000, 5,000, 10,000, 20,000, 50,000, and 100,000 pesos.
Get to know the ‘interbank or mid-market exchange rate.’ It’s the midpoint between the buy rate and the sell rate in global currency markets and is the one, true exchange rate. Many exchange bureaus advertise low or fee-free transfers, but give you a poor exchange rate and hide their fees in that way. Knowing what your currency is worth by using an online currency converter will help you avoid getting ripped off this way.
The best place to exchange currency in Colombia is generally at an ATM. ATMs, as long as you are charged in the local currency, normally use the ‘true’ exchange rate.
Unusually, most banks in Colombia don’t actually exchange money, so other than an ATM, your options are to exchange money at the airport, your hotel, or an exchange bureau. You’ll find money exchangers in the streets of major cities, but don’t expect honest nor safe transactions in the street. Counterfeit bills are a problem, and unsuspecting tourists an easy target.
Note that the Pound Sterling is not widely accepted for exchange in Colombian banks or shops. Even if a merchant will exchange them, they won’t give you a good rate. British travellers are better off sticking to an ATM.
You may face challenges if you choose not to use an ATM for exchange. Airport exchanges might only exchange the U.S. Dollar or the Euro, even if they offer fair rates. Hotels in Cartagena and Bogota will exchange foreign cash, but charge a large fee for the privilege. If you dp bring cash, make sure your bills aren’t damaged or torn, as they may not be accepted by merchants.
Colombian pesos are widely available overseas. If you want to plan ahead, you can exchange before your trip. Retailers like the post office or foreign exchange bureaus stock Colombian pesos. You might even receive better rates at home, since you won’t be paying a withdrawal fee or a foreign transaction fee.
Consignaciones (bank transfers) are commonly used to pay for hotel reservations, tour packages, or national park entry. Making a direct deposit into a hotel bank account will diminish your need to carry cash. To make a deposit, you’ll need the recipient’s bank account and you’ll need to show ID. Make sure to keep your receipt.
One of the simplest ways to do that, if you plan a week or two prior, is to use TransferWise.
If you have a bank account in Colombia, or know someone who does (or have to pay your hotel bill via bank transfer), you can make a local bank transfer in your home currency, and then TransferWise will send the money to Colombia via the local bank system using the real mid-market exchange rate. As with many transfers, you’ll have to fill out a few forms in advance, but it’s often a more convenient way to get your cash, with no hidden fees.
Historically, traveller’s cheques were a prevalent and safe way to carry currency abroad. Today, there are more efficient ways of getting cash. Traveller’s cheques require a manual verification process, and they generally offer poor exchange rates these days.
In Colombia, a bank might only process traveller’s cheques from U.S. dollars, but not other currencies. With so many unknowns and variables, it’s not worth the hassle of exchanging your money using this method.
Credit cards are accepted in all major shops, hotels, and restaurants in Cartagena and Bogota. Foreign visitors should be prepared to provide ID to verify a credit card transaction. As with many South American countries, Visa, MasterCard, and American Express are the most commonly accepted credit cards in Colombia.
Online credit card transactions are still not very common in Colombia. If you use your card in a restaurant, you’ll be asked if it’s credito (credit) or debito (debit). If you’re using a tarjeta de credito (credit card), you might be asked how many installments you want to pay in. Be sure to select ‘una, por favor’ (one, please) - although you can reportedly even have your dinner bill paid in up to 24 installments. If using a tarjeta de debito (debit card), you’ll be asked if its a checking or savings account.
To minimise inconvenience, tell your bank or card issuer that you’re going to be travelling abroad. This will stop them from freezing your card for potential fraud when you’re using it in Colombia.
ATMs in Colombia are widely available and have an English option; however, be sure to use them in the day, and be aware of your surroundings. When possible, use an ATM inside a branch of a bank. Safety is always a concern for foreigners in Colombia, and tourists tend to be targets for petty theft. So use bank ATMs when you can and don’t carry large amounts of cash on you. Carry what you plan to spend, and keep the rest securely stored.
Withdrawal fees will vary, but they are expensive and common. As such, it makes sense to withdraw the maximum amount of cash per day. Touristy areas are more likely to let you withdraw a significant amount.
In the worst-case scenario, you will be charged an ATM fee, an international withdrawal fee, and a currency exchange fee at an ATM. Some ATMs might charge an exchange fee, and waive the withdrawal fee. But expect a lot of variation in your fees and charges.
Always select “withdraw in pesos” (the local currency) as opposed to withdrawing or being charged in your home currency. Otherwise, the ATM may mark up the exchange rate you’re getting. This is known as ‘Dynamic Currency Conversion’, and it usually means extra charges placed on you.
There is one central bank in Colombia, the Banco de la Republica. It is run by the state, and functions as a promoter of financial inclusion policy, and an issuer of Colombian currency.
Colombia also maintains many commercial banks and foreign bank branches within its borders. Your home bank may partner with banks abroad to waive fees. Other banks may build in a charge, or take a cut of your withdrawal. Do the research before you leave, and then be on the lookout for partner banks during your trip.
But beyond worrying about money, make sure you enjoy your trip. And whenever you’re done, rather than exchanging those pesos back into your home currency and losing money again, treat yourself to something nice.

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) A World War II aircraft that took nearly 16 years to restore might be flying over Kansas in the next few weeks after receiving a certificate of airworthiness from the Federal Aviation Administration.
A nonprofit group called Doc’s Friends on Friday officially accepted the FAA certificate for a B-29 bomber known as “Doc.” The group has worked to restore the aircraft since its parts arrived in Wichita in 2000. The certificate is one of the final hurdles to getting it off the ground, The Wichita Eagle reported (http://bit.ly/1U5MoP6 ).
Several dozen members of Doc’s Friends and other supporters attended the ceremony at the World War II aircraft’s hangar at Air Capital Flight Line, the grounds of the former Boeing Wichita complex.
The group will seek permission from the Pentagon to operate “Doc” at McConnell Air Force Base. The plane could be flying in the next few weeks, said Turner, who estimated 350,000 volunteer hours have gone into the restoration.
Tony Mazzolini, who discovered the plane’s parts on a bombing range in California’s Mojave Desert in 1987, traveled from Cleveland for the ceremony. He said he originally thought it would take only two or three years to restore the four-engine plane.
Some of the volunteers for the restoration worked on the original B-29 line at Boeing in Wichita, or had served as crew members. The Wichita plant manufactured 1,644 of the airplanes, which are best known as the bomber type used to drop atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan, ending World War II in the Pacific.
This story has been corrected to show that restoration work didn’t begin until 2000, not 1987.

Rowing is a very exciting, physical and social sport, that can help improve effective team work. Rowing is a great way to stay fit and keep in shape. There is a wide range of ways for people of all abilities to compete, including personal challenges, indoor rowing, ocean crossings, regattas and international competitions.
Rowability from British Rowing aims to encourage anyone who has a physical, sensory or learning impairment to start rowing. Rowing boats and equipment can be easily adapted to the user, leading to this branch of the sport sometimes being called 'adaptive rowing'.
Wesport works alongside British Rowing to develop the sport in the West of England and also offer information about how you can find you local club and give rowing a go.

Given the obstacles law corporations are facing, profitability should not be rising. When a agency’s prevailing atmosphere is one in all competition, not collaboration, companions hardly ever make sacrifices for the great of the firm. For instance, they will be reluctant to tackle managerial roles that may require them to restrict their full-time practices, for worry that their companions won’t deal with them equitably when the time comes for them to reenter full-time apply.

Others believe him to be an ordinary man wearing a fur coat and metal claws. Hone-onna allures lonely men in dark alleys by teasing them with her looks and style. What makes the whole thing even creepier is the stone tablet right beside the statue, which contains a dialogue between Satan and St. Asian Urban Legends · March 8 ·. Some people just can't be satisfied. Asian Urban Legends · February 28 ·. With speed and grace to rival the very best studs of the Baywatch era, you fling yourself into the oddly calm waters and swim her way.
Let's assume for a moment that you, like many, enjoy the basic human function of going to the bathroom. Her hunger for human flesh became unappeasable.

Before we became followers of Christ, we were DEAD IN our trespasses and sins (Eph 2:1-note) but after salvation, we are ALIVE with Christ (Eph. 2:5-note), and DEAD TO SIN (Ro 6:11-note).
We were once slaves to sin but now are free from sin, "For when you were SLAVES OF SIN, you were free in regard to righteousness. But now having been FREED FROM SIN and ENSLAVED to God, you derive your benefit, resulting in sanctification, and the outcome, eternal life." (Ro 6:20, 22-note) True Freedom is not the right to do as we please, but the power to do as we should, a freedom and power paradoxically found only in enslavement to Christ! Indeed, we are most FREE, when we are most BOUND!

The Breck Connect Gondola hovers over the Cucumber Gulch towards Breckenridge Ski Resort Wednesday, March 20. In the spring the "crown jewel," the town's open space program dedicated to wildlife during the most sensitive time of the year, is normally closed to the public.
A local Breckenridge woman is taking misfortune and turning it into opportunity after creating a business based on research she did after a serious knee injury. Carly Davis created a post-workout nutrition bar she’s dubbed CARLbar after researching diets to help aid in her recovery. The CARLbar is gluten-free and contains no genetically modified organisms, soy, nuts or dairy. Each bar is high in fiber and protein and comes with 15 milligrams of hemp-derived CBD. The nutrition bar also contains turmeric, a flowering plant from the ginger family that’s known for its alleged anti-inflammatory effects.
The town has dictated a 45-day dark period in which the gondola is to remain closed to the public before it can resume operating again for the resort’s summertime activities, but with a June 14 opening date, it would still be running outside of the recommendations of Colorado Parks and Wildlife. Even though the gondola is starting up earlier in June than state wildlife officials would prefer, Breckenridge Ski Resort said that resuming no earlier than June 14 is consistent with the resort’s summer operations for the past six years.
Colorado’s real estate market might be cooling down in some places across the state, but those indicators have not yet materialized in Summit County. Looking at current real estate activity, Dennis Clauer, owner and broker at Real Estate of the Summit, said the county continues to see “a nice, healthy housing market,” fueled by gains in the stock market, as well as lowered mortgage interest rates. Scarcity remains a decisive factor, too, as Clauer noted the available inventory has dropped from 4,872 listings in August 2010 to 1,718 last month. Like so many other local real estate pros have said previously, housing prices are a reflection of limited supply competing with a growing demand.
Gov. Jared Polis has decided it’s time for Colorado to have a new look, unveiling an updated logo for the state last week. It has multicolored mountains housed within the “C” from the state flag. An evergreen tree is off to the side. Each color on the logo represents a different part of the state. The red is for the soil and rocks, the yellow is for the wheat fields of the great plains and the blue base represents Colorado’s rivers and lakes. Polis said the old logo focused on the mountains, and while they’re great, there’s a lot more to Colorado.
“We want to provide a fresh representation of the state brand,” Polis said.
In a growing West, where discount passes are driving traffic and resort community populations are swelling, it’s the cars, not the skiers, that are causing the most headaches. In this story by The Colorado Sun, a new ride app is trying to combat the growing number of cars on the road headed to ski areas by offering rewards to drivers and riders who carpool. RIDE — shorthand for Reduce Individual Driving for the Environment — was used more than 1,500 times in its first month. Resorts such as Copper Mountain have signed up to use the program next season.

Since Empire: The House That John H. Johnson Built was released on November 6, the Rev. Jesse L. Jackson, Sr., who wrote the book's foreword about John H. Johnson, his late mentor and "godfather," has been committed to helping me promote and push the message about the man and his mission. Just recently Rev. Jackson's Rainbow PUSH Coalition invited me during its Reunion Day to not only discuss the book during its live broadcast but to also have a book signing on December 8 following the telecast. The book was most recently featured in Richard Prince's Journal-isms Book Notes: Holiday Offerings.
On Sunday, November 11, the Raymond A. Thomas Art Studio hosted the official book launch party for Empire: The House That John H. Johnson Built, five days after its nationwide release. Located in Chicago's "Black Metropolis," also known as the historic Bronzeville neighborhood, the studio is housed in the Bronzeville Artist Lofts, home of Gallery Guichard, the preeminent gallery of art co-owned by Andre Guichard. Raymond A. Thomas designed Empire's cover. He served as art director and creative manager at Johnson Publishing Company--under the direct leadership of its pioneering founder John H. Johnson--for more than two decades where his work appeared on the covers and in the pages of EBONY and JET magazines. Valerie Goodloe, who served as a photographer for EBONY and JET, took pictures for the evening along with Ajuma Muhammad. Check out some recent coverage, including The Chicago Defender, The Journal of Blacks in Higher Education, Richard Prince's Journal-isms, and WVON 1690 Talk of Chicago (Real Talk Real People with Chatdaddy).
EBONY gets up close and personal for its October issue with Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms and Sen. Cory Book (D-NJ). A tribute to the Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin, which I penned, is also featured.
This was taken during a meet and greet, following Aretha Franklin's performance at Ravinia in 2015. She told me how much she liked my hat.
Issa Rae's award-winning HBO series, "Insecure," returns for a third season on Sunday, August 12. Taking front and center on EBONY's September fashion issue, she's hoping to change the way African-American women are viewed in television and in film by presenting multi-dimensional perspectives. In this issue I caught up with Grammy Award-winning performer Bobby Brown and wrote a story about his highly-anticipated two-night BET mini-series, "The Bobby Brown Story," airing September 4 and 5. He also discussed his new life and the importance of having someone in his corner during his darkest moments.
Bobby and I during media interview at Wintrust Arena in green room. Later that day the Grammy Award-winning singer appeared with RBRM before a sold-out concert at Chicago's Arie Crown Theater. He revealed that he lost 60 lbs. by watching his diet and cooking with his own natural products. Learn more about Bobby Brown Foods. BET's The New Edition Story and The Bobby Brown Story were the network's highest ranking in its history.
When it comes to high-profile relationships, things aren't what they used to be. It isn't that couples today endure more stress behind closed doors than those who came before. It's just that folks in the spotlight now must deal with more drama thanks to social media having their business in the streets and in the tweets. If you haven't already, check out this cover story I penned where many of these lovebirds have proven that anything worth having is certainly worth fighting for...even if it's each other.
It's always a pleasure to speak with a fellow St. Louis native even when the interview is conducted via a phoner well after 10:00 p.m. This article appeared in the December 2017/January 2018 Power issue of EBONY.

To skip the hassle of going through a state or territory to obtain a death record, you can use the Internet to find it for you. Besides cutting time and effort, you will only have to submit a small amount of information and the site’s powerful search engines will do the rest. Searching for records or any type of information has become much easier since the Internet and there are many services available. They all offer pretty much the same services and for a reasonable fee they will perform the search and within minutes can send a report to your private email address. You won’t have to prove that you’re related to the deceased individual and the report from an Internet search will likely contain more information than you’d receive from a state-based search. If time and accuracy are a major concern to you as it is to most professionals who use these Internet search sites, this may be the best method to find the Guam death record you’re looking for. There are many sites available, and if you plan to use one extensively for a period of time, many let you maintain a monthly membership, but you can also pay a one-time fee to search for only one record. Click on the link to learn more about Internet search sites and how you can easily obtain a copy of a Guam death record.

One of the best issues to do on-line is to sports activities wager. When you do a survey, you will be surprised to know that hundreds of thousands of people are collaborating in this gambling action. On-line betting is one of the huge industries today getting a multitude from various components of the world participating in their respective sports option. A great deal of web sites have also emerged to offer services to people who want to experience fun and comfort through an on-line system. What is great about betting online is that you will no longer require to go to unusual lands just to place your bets. You will never experience strangers pushing you from nowhere or shouting at you out of pleasure.
Whether or not this can alter your lifestyle is up to you. I would argue that 1 way or an additional it will. You will either appreciate yourself and make some cash or be very frustrated and wish you hadn’t began it. The alternative is to do nothing! If you do absolutely nothing then you will by no means change your life.
To prove our assertion that twenty%twenty five better odds can double your profits, we will use the instance of Average Joe who went to final Saturday’s assembly at Canterbury and was content material to just put his bets on the tote. Joe had 6 bets for the working day, placing $50 for the get on each. He experienced two winners from those 6 bets, getting $4.90 for Acey Ducey and $2.80 for Forensics. So overall he gained $85 for the working day.
You can adhere to this process with nearly each sport like soccer (searching for attracts), basketball, polo, rugby, and so on! I m following this method step-by-stage with tennis and NBA (U.S. basketball) betting market, in which i m taking pleasure in great achievement! i m putting bets on every day basis and till now I have attained 4500$ bucks the last three months and I m constantly improving!
When people talk about online betting, definitely they will not let bets that are free pass. More frequently than not, this will always go along with on-line betting. Nevertheless, for a newbie who does not know something about DominoQQ , PokerQQ, BandarQQ , QQ Online a lot of questions will cross their mind. But what exactly is it? Is it truly totally free? What is the risk concerned with this kind of bets? To answer all of these queries let us lay all the cards of a totally free wager 1 by one.
Another condition you’re likely to come across is that welcome bonuses are only available to new associates. Following completing your registration the totally free bets will be sent to you. However current bettors could see themselves rewarded with loyalty bonuses.
Soccer betting is no various from other sports activities bets. But in purchase to location a bet it requirements a great deal of experience and methods. Placement of bet requires knowledge of sophisticated strategies. Only factor besides luck that can make you successful in the arena soccer gambling or betting is your knowledge of strategies, system and timing.
Clearly, on-line betting has become a harmful phenomenon. It has started impacting student conduct. Even workplaces are not immune to betting on basketball games. Nearly each workplace has a basketball pool. Numerous workplace goers go on the internet during office hours to location bets.

Lahor : časopis za hrvatski kao materinski, drugi i strani jezik, Vol. 2 No. 12, 2011.
Jelaska, Zrinka i Maša Musulin. "Slovo i slovopis španjolskoga i hrvatskoga jezika." Lahor, vol. 2, br. 12, 2011, str. 211-239. https://hrcak.srce.hr/81946. Citirano 18.04.2019.
This paper analyses graphic systems of Spanish and Croatian in order to discuss polysemous linguistic term letter in Croatian and in general. Letter means a symbol of alphabetic systems that is a basic form (without diacritics); a symbol with diacritics added to it; only a monograph; monograph and multigraph as well; a part of the alphabet; it is sometimes viewed as a synonym to graph or grapheme. When at the beginning of their acquisition Croatian learners of Spanish are faced with different alphabet and orthography in reading and writing, they are faced with somewhat different terminology as well. The Croatian alphabet includes digraphs, while the Spanish have excluded them in their newest orthography reform, and now no Spanish digraphs are named letters. Hence, the same sound, lateral palatal, which is represented by (two different) digraphs in those two languages (ll and lj) is considered a letter in Croatian but not in Spanish. While the majority of letters in both languages represent one phoneme, and the majority of phonemes are represented by one letter or one digraph, some letters represent more than one phoneme and some phonemes are represented by more than one letter. The comparison of differences show that Spanish, in spite of the fact that it is often quoted as an orthographically transparent language, is far less adapted to its own phonological system than Croatian. The paper proposes some new terms in order to solve the problem with the polysemy of term `slovo' and to make the comparison of different writing systems in reading and writing easier. The term `abecedno slovo' (alphabetic letter) is useful to point to the graphemes listed in the alphabet which shape phonological consciousness of native speaker vs. `slovo' (letter) in general, including `neabecedna slova' (non-alphabetic letters), e.g. letters not listed in the alphabet. The terms `jednočlano slovo' (one-member letter) vs. `višečlano slovo' (multimember letter) may also be useful for native speakers which include multigraphs among alphabetic letters and conceptualize multigraph as one letter. Due to some mute letters in languages, terms `grafemsko slovo' (graphemic letter) vs. `negrafemsko slovo' (non-graphemic letter) are also proposed. In Spanish h is either mute, non-graphemic letter or a part of digraph, which does not make it a grapheme but strengthens its position within the alphabet. The prototypical letter is simple (witout diacritics), single (nor multigraph), listed in the alphabet, frequent, typical for native words, and it represents just one sound. Letters that include diacritics, letters not included in the alphabet, foreign letters, letters that represent sequences of sounds, letters that represent different sounds, multigraphs, mute letters etc. are less prototypical, even marginal members of the category LETTER.

ATLANTA (CNN) — The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention briefed U.S. health care providers by phone Thursday to put them on notice that MERS may be coming to an exam room near them via patients who have traveled to South Korea or countries in the Middle East.
The agency also issued a health advisory alerting health care providers about the signs and symptoms of the deadly Middle East respiratory syndrome, citing the potential for transmission from travelers from South Korea, where a MERS outbreak began in May.
Health care providers were also reminded to ask their patients about whether they’ve traveled to South Korea or the Middle East, where the disease emerged in 2012.
The MERS outbreak in South Korea is the largest outside the Middle East since the syndrome was identified three years ago. Since May 20, there have been 122 cases of the respiratory virus and 10 related deaths in South Korea.
Transmission electron micrograph of Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) coronavirus.
The advisory asks providers to isolate suspected patients and test for MERS without delay in patients with travel history to these areas.
There are no known MERS cases in the United States, though two were reported last year. Both patients, who recovered, were health care workers infected while working in Saudi Arabia.
Symptoms include fever, cough and shortness of breath. Pneumonia and diarrhea have also been reported.
Since 2012, more than 1,000 MERS patients have been diagnosed in 25 countries and more than 400 have died. MERS seems to spike in the spring and summer, which could account for the South Korean outbreak.
South Korean health officials say the virus was imported to that nation in May by a man who had traveled to the Middle East.
In an effort to contain the outbreak, South Korean officials have quarantined more than 3,000 people and have closed more than 2,000 schools.
Many of those who fell ill were health care workers who had treated MERS patients, relatives of the patients or pre-existing hospital patients whose health already was compromised.
Last week, the CDC updated its travel information on MERS to say that visitors to South Korea should take precautions to protect themselves against MERS.
Researchers are still trying to understand how the virus is transmitted but say it apparently can spread through close person-to-person contact, such as caring for someone who is infected without using personal protective equipment.
According to the World Health Organization, most cases have been transmitted from animals to humans. Researchers still are studying how this transmission occurs, but believe camels likely are a source.

On 3 November 2014, the OECD invited comments from interested parties on the discussion draft of proposed modifications to Chapter VII of the Transfer Pricing Guidelines covering low value-adding intra-group services relating to Action 10 of the BEPS Action Plan.
NERA transfer pricing experts Dr. Stuart Harshbarger, Dr. Vladimir Starkov, and Guillaume Madelpuech submitted their comments on 14 January 2015. Intra-group services of the kind that do not contribute significantly to fundamental risks of success and failure of a business ("low value-adding" services) tend to be some of the most scrutinized categories of intercompany transactions in some jurisdictions and are responsible for many instances of double taxation. Yet, based on the fact that – due to their very nature – charges for these types of services tend to be close to the costs incurred to provide these services, the authors do not believe that intercompany transactions involving such low value-adding services constitute a significant opportunity for BEPS. As such, the authors support the OECD's position not to have developed specifically an action for service transactions under the BEPS Action Plan, even though certain member states or observing states were in favor of such an initiative. On the contrary, they believe that the current Transfer Pricing Guidelines and the arm's length principle are sufficient, if properly applied, to impede any such BEPS.

Summer is coming to an end (insert sad face here), and it’s time to get into the back-to-school routine. With more work and less free time, I know that it will be trickier to keep my boys as active and healthy as they were over the summer. However, as a pediatrician, I also know that by doing a few simple things I can help make a difference in their overall health, even with all the germs that inevitably come with the classroom. And here’s the thing: The little tricks that we do in my household can work for your kids, too!
1. Unwind with exercise, not screen time. Everyone needs to veg and unwind after a long day. Rather than plopping them down in front of the TV, computer, or iPad, however, try to get active with your kids. Go out to the playground, shoot a few hoops, play a game of hopscotch, and jump rope. (If it’s raining, have a dance party in your living room!) Kids love it when their parents play with them, so join in the game. You don’t need a lot of fancy equipment to exercise.
2. Establish a bedtime routine and stick with it. Research shows that chronic sleep deprivation can affect children’s health and their ability to perform in school. By setting a nighttime routine, your child will know what to expect and will get tired as you flow through the routine. Actively engage your child by having him help create the routine with you; you’ll take the stress out of bedtime and make it a special time for you both to regroup and settle down after a busy day.
3. Get them to eat their fruits and veggies. A healthy diet is one of the key ingredients for a healthy body. In fact, studies have shown that children who eat more fruits and veggies are less likely to develop chronic diseases. If your child turns up her nose at the sight of cut up or cooked fruits and veggies, try to entice her to eat the good stuff with a fun squeeze pouch with a combination of organic fruit and veggies. You can also put fruits and veggies into recipes, such as oatmeal on the go.
4. Teach them to wash their hands often, especially after they use the restroom, before they eat or help prepare food, and after they sneeze or cough. Model good behavior by washing your hands with them. Good hand-washing hygiene helps to prevent the spread of germs and will keep your kids from catching as many colds this winter.
5. Don’t forget their annual checkup. It’s easy to forget the yearly checkup when your children are doing well; however, this doctor’s visit is very important. It is a time for your doctor to review your child’s health as a whole and not just address the problem at hand (like your doctor does during a sick visit). When I see patients for their check-ups, for example, I review their diet, digestive health, sleep habits, exercise habits, school performance, and discuss any concerns the parents have. I also provide guidance on what to expect in the coming year.
These tips can help you and your kids have a healthy start to the new school year. When introducing healthy habits into your home, always try to make them fun and be consistent so that your kids will be more likely to stick with them!

Get this guy a Gold Glove.
Jake Peavy made his first appearance in a San Francisco Giants uniform Sunday night — an otherwise pedestrian outing (six innings, six hits, four runs) highlighted by a bizarre display of defense.
With a man on first in the top of the fifth inning, Giants catcher Buster Posey’s throw back to the mound slipped out of his hand and bounced along the infield grass. Showing some quick reflexes, Peavy dove to his right to snare the errant toss, preventing Los Angeles Dodgers baserunner Dee Gordon from advancing. Your browser does not support iframes.
That fifth inning proved to be Peavy’s undoing, however. The right-hander allowed three Dodgers runs in the frame en route to a 4-3 loss — his 10th in 21 starts this season.

Success (in whatever way you define it), is affected by the people we’re around; relationally, emotionally, professionally, mentally, physically (you name it!), each one is both positively and negatively affected by the group you’re associated with.
Sometimes it’s the presence or even the absence of a particular person in our life that leaves a mark. Maybe a situation or relationship that seemed chaotic, negative and unhealthy has become our greatest teacher and other times it’s the compassion and acceptance that an important person (or group) extends that alters how we see ourselves and the life we lead.
There is no doubt about it, relationships and the communities we’re involved in, shape who we are right down to our very center. From infancy to the end of our lifetime, without them, our lives would be lonely, isolated, hopeless and meaningless.
What communities are you a part of? Are you an active participant or a passive observer? What role do you play in the community for others? In what ways can you get more involved, speak up or take on responsibilities that will create a closer connection between you and the others around you?
Taking steps to increase your community involvement does not have to be overwhelming or consuming. It can be as simple as introducing yourself to someone new, meeting for coffee, offering to be a resource or sharing your knowledge and expertise. Maybe it’s focusing on a few people to build a personal relationship with or simply putting down your smart phone and making eye contact when you greet others. Participation and appearing open is key. After all, you never know what connection will result in helping move your career, goals, dreams or desires forward.
If you’re having trouble identifying a community that you want to actively participate in, then finding a community you will enjoy is top priority. Explore different organizations that reflect your core beliefs, interests or values. Take a look at the spheres you’re in: work, family, church, groups, where can you get involved or how can you be more present in the moment to connect with others you are around.
Look for ways to increase your exposure and know that if you’re uncomfortable, you’re probably doing the right thing. Community isn’t necessarily comfortable, it should be evolving, challenging you and creating opportunity for growth.
Last but not least, let your community know how they have impacted you. Share your story, open up and be vulnerable. Let others in on your life and you’ll reap even deeper rewards interpersonally. After my visit this weekend, the first priority when I returned was reaching out to my current community and colleagues I reconnected with and letting each one know just how thankful I am for their presence and support. It was a powerful feeling to let them know just how much they mean to me. Try it!
–> Speak up! Let us know what you enjoy most about the communities you are involved in and how they have contributed to shaping who you are today!

The MAC-OSX Lion IPSEC We will start with a fully commented racoon.conf example based on the above information in order to illustrate how to configure an IPSEC VPN. When the VPN connection is established between 2 parties (between a VPN client and VPN gateway or between 2 VPN gateways), a secured virtual tunnel will be created with capability to encrypt the data (so no hacker can see the data content ), preserve data integrity (no data change during transmission) and ensure the communication only happen between that 2 authenticated parties. OpenVPN is great for connections from To illustrate the setup I want to build I've made this ascii “drawing” – hopy you can understand it :-) Host1 -- LAN1 -- Router1 --[BIG, Luckily we can combine them in a way so the tunnel mode can be on top of transport mode + you can make host to subnet connections, and this is what you're likely to want.

Shadows of a Stranger was shown this month at the Anglicon Film Festival in Seattle, and we are delighted to announce that the film picked up the judges’ award for Best Feature!
Anglicon is a film festival that, as the name suggests, celebrates all things British, with a leaning towards Doctor Who, so our film was a natural fit for the event, particularly as Shadows is set during the lead up to Christmas! Attending the festival were the 5th and 7th incarnations of the Doctor, Peter Davison and Sylvester McCoy, so we sort of plugged the gap between them seeing as our film stars Colin Baker!
Sadly we weren’t able to attend the event – it’s a long way from Sleaford to Seattle! But we hope that you all enjoyed the film over there. Thanks for watching and thanks for the award!
Check out the Anglicon website for more information on the event.

At about 11 p.m., I received a call from the maintenance manager of a 20-story apartment building. The pumping system had failed, and he could not find a mechanical reason for the problem.
We examined the controller and determined that the display was working normally. Power was going into the control panel, and voltage was present at the output of the power supply. Carefully looking over the circuit board, I discovered a fuse-holder cap. I pulled the fuse and was rewarded with a blown element. It was an odd size, so we were not going to be able to replace it in the middle of the night. The next morning, the maintenance manager purchased replacement fuses. He bought an entire box so spares would be available.
It became apparent that the fuse was not there to protect the circuit board. Its purpose was to protect the 4-to-20-mA loop supplying the water-pressure sensor. In my many years of looking at these kinds of systems, I cannot recall seeing a fuse in this particular location because 4-to-20-mA loops inherently are current-limited. If the design engineer thought it wise to provide a fuse, its location and purpose should have been indicated on the equipment.
The manufacturer's instruction manual was of no help. One troubleshooting recommendation was to check all of the fuses. However, no fuse was shown on the schematic drawing. Instructions on replacing a blown fuse are not much help if you do not know where the fuse is located.
Because the pumping system did not need to be checked every day, operators were not familiar with its routine operation. Also, there was frequent turnover on the maintenance staff. The solution appeared to be attaching a single sheet of abbreviated instructions to the control unit's front cover. Basic operating procedures, routine error messages, reset/restart procedures, and various voltages and pressures that easily could be checked to diagnose a problem, as well as the number for a 24/7 hotline that could be called for troubleshooting assistance, were listed.
If you are going to put electronics in a mechanical-systems component, realize that it will take some time for maintenance workers to become as proficient with digital controls as they are with mechanical systems.

HearthStone wood and gas-fired stoves are quality home heating products any homeowner would be proud to own. Gas stoves are certified to one of two standards: "decorative appliance" or "room heater." (This rating is clearly labeled on the stove.) Decorative appliances are attractive but they are not designed to heat a room, nor are they efficient. Room heaters, such as a HearthStone gas-fired stove, are serious heating units, subject to stringent efficiency standards. At HearthStone, our goal is to provide you with both aesthetics and efficiency!

HUROM HZ Slow Juicer is one of the finest juicers out there. You will truly enjoy working with it.
It is very well made, and you will feel great extracting your cold-pressed juices. It does the job quickly and easily and it does that with style.
With its sleek finish of stainless still, and with its fancy LED indicators, the Hurom HZ model stands out among all the other juicers from the Hurom series.
If you care about the absolute quality of the extracted juices, there is no better machine than to use a slow masticating juicer.
What you would also love about this model is the fact that all plastic parts are Bisphenol A free. So your juices will be free from the harmful effects of this proven hormone disruption.
The Hurom HZ Slow Juicer, as a masticating juicer with a vertical setup, is very easy to use. Even more so because it has self cleaning capabilities. The self-cleaning part means that you don’t have to disassembly the juicer and clean the individual parts as long as you want to switch to another recipe. You just need to pour some water and let the engine run for a while and you are good to go for the next healthy juicer recipe.
8 Are There Any Cons?
This is Hurom’s most advanced juicer that utilizes masticating technology. Let’s see what that means: there are two main types of juicers, centrifugal and masticating.
The centrifugal juicers are more affordable, and you can buy one for as little as $40. If you are going to buy an expensive juicer, you will be better off looking for a masticating juicer. They are high-end juicers with prices well above $200. They are superior in the sense that they are much better built, they have higher juice yield, and they have more functions.
Masticating juicers usually have longer warranties (typically 10+ years), and are more user friendly in general. Their method of extraction is probably what makes them a better choice if you are looking for a quality juice. This particular model has a 10 years warranty on the engine and 2 years on the other parts.
Hurom’s second generation of juicers are equipped with the co called Slow Squeezing TechnologyTM (SST). SST means that you are able to get 35% more juice than when using centrifugal high-speed juicers. It means you are leaving much drier pulp and less pulp in general.
This technology is designed to minimize damage to the ingredients that you want to make juice from. Rather than rotating with blazing speed (centrifugal juicers), the Hurom’s juicer squeezes the ingredients slowly, thoroughly, and steadily. Thus, the natural taste is preserved and the enzymes, vitamins, and other nutrients are intact. In contrast, centrifugal juices are known to promote quicker oxidation of the nutrients. The reason is the high speed of rotation, which raises the temperature and promotes oxidation, which, in turn, damages the nutrients.
The HZ slow juicer has a speed of merely 43 rotations per minute (RPM). You can just compare this number with the average RPM of a centrifugal juicer: between 3,000 and 16,000. Huge difference! The spinning brush has even lower speed; it rotates at 17 RPM.
This technology therefore enables juicing very close to the natural frequency that people produce while hand squeezing juice.
The Hurom technology is designed to help you extract juice with much better overall taste. The pulp is extremely dry but what you will like the most, you can use the lever to decide if and how much pulp you want to allow to enter the squeezed juice. It can be free of pulp, or filled with pulp. The latter is great for people with various medical condition and, for example, for anyone who wants to buffer the sharp rise of sugar in their bloodstream. The pulp also promotes better digestion and has other beneficial health effects.
With the Hurom HZ Juicer, you easily juice both hard and soft vegetables and fruits. That includes wheatgrass, dandelion greens, kale, parsley, spinach, collard greens, and other leafy greens, nuts, and other difficult to juice produce.
It goes without saying that this juicer can juice citrus fruits like oranges, tangerines, grapefruits, limes or lemons.
As far as hard produce goes, you can put into it garlic, carrots, beets, asparagus, fennel, sweet potato, pumpkin, cauliflower and other hard veggies and fruits. If you use the coarse strainer, it is easy to prepare puree from bananas, avocado, mango, strawberries, tomatoes, or pomegranate.
The AC motor is almost silent, working on just 150 watts of power. This is much less than the centrifugal juicers that by definition come equipped with noisy kilowatt motors. Not only will you enjoy your cold pressed juices, but you will also enjoy preparing them without the accompanied noise often heard in traditional juicers and blenders.
Safety lock system. The engine won’t start until locked properly to ensure your safety during the process of juice extraction.
Some people complain that the mouth of this juicer is not as large (Chute Size is 2x 1.5 inches) as in some other juicers. They mostly refer to centrifugal machines with large cute sizes. But this really isn’t such a problem, as it takes only one or two minutes more to chop your vegetables and fruits. Note that you won’t need as much of them as when you use a centrifugal juicer, because here you have a much high juice yield.
People might also complain that this model is not dishwasher safe, that it is slow, or too expensive. These drawbacks are in fact a result of the masticating technology. All slow juicers have similar disadvantages, like having to chop the produce into smaller pieces and waiting for the machine to finish a little bit longer. Once you have tasted the extraordinary quality of the prepared juice, however, these drawbacks won’t matter much.
The fact that this device is not dishwasher safe, shouldn’t be worrying as well. It is easy to clean, and you don’t have to clean it between uses, as it has the self cleaning feature. When you want to clean it more thoroughly, you can use clean water with soap and the provided brushes to remove pulp from the strainers. It is important to remove all the pulp residue on the strainer.
Hurom HZ is certainly not a cheap juicer. Its high price point is justified though. For example, you can regulate as to how much pulp you want to let into your freshly squeezed juice. For more pulp you can mount the coarse strainer. For clear juices with less pulp, you can use the fine strainer. You can even make ice cream with the ice cream strainer.
Whom is it for? For everyone who wants to make an upgrade from their entry level juicer. Even if you have an older type of masticating juicer, Hurom HZ could be your next best choice.

The eID-me project will eliminate wallets forever.
These days its really easy to leave your wallet behind. Things like Apple Pay and online banking have made wallets pretty much useless, except for one thing.
Government ID cards are used all the time, whether you are trying to order a drink or have to provide proof of age to get into a movie or bar, which means you almost always have to have your ID on you.
But one company has developed a product that will let Ontarians leave their plastic cards behind.
There's a new app in development called eID-me bu Bluink Ltd. that will act as your official Ontario ID card. The app stores the identity information from your driver's license, health card, and Ontario photo ID card so it's easily and conveniently located on your phone.
Not only does it make carrying your ideas way easier (who doesn't have their phone on them at all times) but it also makes it more secure. It is password protected and also gives you a choice of what information you reveal, so you don't have to give away your address to ever bouncer you come across.
The app was developed as part of a challenge from the Ontario government. The Small Business Innovation Challenge asked smaller technology-based businesses to find creative solutions to some problems in the province.
The program was announced by the Ontario government in 2016 in partnership with the Ontario Center of Excellence. Businesses were able to apply to the challenge with their innovative proposals to address public sector challenges.
According to the company's website, testing of the eID-me system will begin this fall. If the tests are successful and the government chooses to go forward with this product Ontarians may soon be able to forget their wallets altogether.

Like a cuckoo clock, but with Twitter... so not really like a cuckoo clock at all, actually.
"Nearly every second, a user on Twitter tweets about what time it is." Chirpclock makes use of this as an interesting way of keeping track of the time.
That's actually kind of cool. #12:48.
"Oh, wow, it's almost 3:00 and I haven't gotten any work done!"
More like, nearly every second a user includes the time in a tweet. It is a pretty neat effect though.
Yeah, I was getting tired of this analog watch, and I've already discussed all possible meteorological conversational permutations with my colleagues...So, perfect!
Thanks, but I'll just look up at that little clock on the menu bar of the macbook.
The three bars on the bottom of the screen are cool too. I think I am going to write up a little app that displays three bars in the system tray as the hours minutes and seconds pass.
I've given up on finding answers to these questions regarding anything done on Twitter.
Funny, it uses local, 12-hour clock. Which means for me here in the UK right now, most of the tweets are in Chinese.
Yeah, that's fun, but I watched for a while and didn't see a single one that was someone "tweeting about what time it was." Actually, I was surprised--you'd think there'd be a few more ironic "It's 10.02 and I'm sitting here breathing. Updates to follow" tweets.
Recommended listening for aural and visual pleasure combined. Because well, you know.
Though I realize efficiency isn't really the point, this seems like a Rube Goldberg device that has 42 steps for lighting a fire, and it all starts with striking a match.
I love this, it's quite cute. For a more mundane list of Twitter clocks, see twitter-clock-favourites, one of three lists maintained by a fan of Swatch Internet Time. Fuzzy Clock is kind of fun.
Strangely, this seems to be a countdown to the "Hunger Games."
I actually think it's cool, like chococat said, the way the three bars on the bottom track the seconds, minutes, hours. And the little icons of the Twitterers show up in the corner, too.
yoink: Yeah, that's fun, but I watched for a while and didn't see a single one that was someone "tweeting about what time it was." Actually, I was surprised--you'd think there'd be a few more ironic "It's 10.02 and I'm sitting here breathing. Updates to follow" tweets.
I'm now tempted to log in to Twitter and post some ironic time-specific comments, just to change the metric.
Like, "It's 1:03, do you know where your children are?"
Can anyone recommend a site that explains what the hell people do on Twitter? I have an account, and follow a few bloggers, but all it really shows are when they update their blog. TIA.
It's the world's first clock powered by inanity.
It would be really neat if it could figure out the time using Twitter. Alas, I think it is just doing a search against Twitter with the current time.
You think that's cool? How about if you find a mention of every time in movies and turn it into a real-time clock.
Yeah, almost all of the ones I saw were actually Bible verses.
I have a personal time & twitter tic, so this is of interest to me.
DU: "You think that's cool? How about if you find a mention of every time in movies and turn it into a real-time clock"
I'd flag it as a double.
That pretty much describes most recent technology, at least as concerns the internet.
It looks like some Twitter clients automatically add the time to posts, which is really weird. They could try and figure out a way to filter those out.
This site is obviously keeping its own clock, and then searching for relevant tweets to use to display it. From the description I thought it would be using tweets to determine the current time, which would be kind of cool as an AI project.
I love all of the [american] high-schoolers who are so excited that's it's 2:05 now.
And now it's 2:06 and it's in different languages and I don't understand anymore.
It's 1:02 and these kids are already running me ragged.
along with many others in Spanish and Chinese.
Yeah, I would like a clock that took advantage of this somehow. A lot.
Navelgazer: "Yeah, almost all of the ones I saw were actually Bible verses."
Even as a not-really-Christian... in fact, maybe because of this fact... this would be a feature for me and my imaginary clock, not a bug.
2:14 was a constant stream of religious quotes being RT. Still an amusing idea.
Something tells me they never have a problem finding samples for 4:20.
I wanted this to be better than it was.
Or 5pm, which, sadly and thanks to me, even my 10 year old knows is Beer O'clock.
So this is an automated search of Twitter using the time value, and showing a different hit for every second.
Pretty neat. This sort of fluidity with leveraging found values is pretty impressive although once you understand how it's done some of the magic falls away, like most neat tricks.
I also like this ahem..."Skygazer" device that takes a photo of the sky every five minutes and averages out the light value over time. (It's also by Mike Bodge).
I just saw lots of flashing 8:00s. Which is fine because that matches my computer's time. Except in 'real life' it seems to be 11:01.
I spent quite a bit of time each day trying to figure out the time it seems. I often ask google, as I work in a school also full of broken/stopped clocks and incorrectly programmed computers..
