There are Four Parenting Styles – Which Style Do You Use?
It’s important to recognize your parenting style. With that recognition comes the ability to make adjustments to your parenting, so that your children will grow up to be happy responsible adults.

Abortion was already legal in Queensland and there was no need to strip the remaining protections for women and the unborn from the law, Australian Christian Lobby Queensland Director Wendy Francis said today.
Responding to a pre-election questionnaire from ACL, both Labor and the LNP said they had no plans to change Queensland’s abortion laws.
“The people of Queensland expect parliamentarians to honour the commitments their parties make. That should be the end of Rob Pyne’s attempt to change the law,” Ms Francis said.
However, Mr Pyne’s proposal to allow abortion until birth had shocked Queenslanders.
“Community shock at Mr Pyne’s grotesque plan to allow babies viable outside the womb to be killed for no medical reason should also extend to earlier stages of pregnancy,” Ms Francis said.
“We have a situation where in other States, such as in Victoria, parliamentarians are seeking to claw back human rights for the unborn by introducing safeguards for women and children. Yet in Queensland Mr Pyne would have us believe that abortion is manifestly a good thing for society.
“Mr Pyne is saying it is no longer 1889 and abortion should not be illegal.
“He’s right – it is no longer 1889 and we now know that the child in the womb is human, feels pain, that abortion techniques such as dismemberment and poisoning of the unborn child are barbaric.
“This bill is a betrayal of women. The Queensland Parliament will be failing Queensland women if the only option they can offer for an unsupported pregnancy is abortion.
Ms Francis warns that removing safeguards will lead to a higher rate of of risky ‘do-it-yourself’ abortions without necessary medical consultation and supervision.
“It is misleading to suggest that abortions cannot be carried out legally in Queensland. Queensland women can access abortions easily and do not even need a doctor’s referral if the abortion is done prior to 12 weeks gestation.
“In 2014 more than 10,000 abortions were performed in Queensland which is on par with other Australian States.
“What the community and women are looking for is better options than abortion, which leads to terrible consequences for mother and child.
A survey running in the Cairns Post shows that 71 per cent oppose any changes to the abortion laws.
Another survey conducted by Galaxy Research shows that 88 per cent of Queenslanders are opposed to late-term abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy, 74 per cent are opposed to abortions past the first trimester and one in two Queenslanders are opposed to abortion for non-medical reasons.
“Not everyone who opposes proposed changes to legislation on abortion is religious, as it is also an intrinsic human desire to protect the rights of children and women,” Ms Francis said.
“As knowledge grows on how a baby’s life begins in the mother’s womb, the community is becoming increasingly alarmed by the high levels of abortions.
“Women deserve better than abortion. They need stronger safeguards such as anti-coercion laws, a requirement for provision of free professional counselling independent of the abortion clinic, coupled with a cooling-off period.
“In addition, much better support services for women are required so they can choose the life-giving alternatives of keeping the child, adopting or fostering – and not feeling that abortion is their only choice.
“The existing law on abortion stands as something of a safeguard against women being pressured by their partners or parents. The existing law also ensures that there is some counselling and assessment by a doctor.
“The ACL call on the Labor Government and Opposition Party to stand by their pre-election pledge saying they would not weaken the abortion laws.

Our rights are being curtailed by our own appointed officials.
We need to speak up and reach out to our legislators for help.
Berkshire Gas Co. wants to help Kinder Morgan (KM) demonstrate to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) there is a need to build the Northeast Energy Direct (NED) pipeline. They do this by entering into an agreement with KM to purchase gas from the pipeline if it is built. This “Precedent Agreement” needs to be approved by the MA Dept. of Public Utilities (DPU) before KM can include Berkshire Gas as a future customer in their application to FERC.
Berkshire Gas Co. has a very poor record of fixing gas leaks and promoting energy efficiency. Properly implementing these programs would preclude the need for additional gas infrastructure to meet Massachusetts’ year-round demand.
DPU is obliged to receive comments from the public and hold a hearing about the Precedent Agreement (Docket 15-37). They held a hearing in Boston and, under pressure from citizens and at the urging of State Senator Stan Rosenberg, held a second hearing in Greenfield, MA on June 11th. Many local officials and a number of state legislators spoke out against the Precedent Agreement – over 200 people made public comments and over 700 people showed up to support them.
Mass Pipeline Awareness Network (MassPLAN) and Northeast Energy Solutions (NEES) represent environmental organizations, land trusts, and thousands of concerned citizens in western MA. These two organizations each have hired “big gun” lawyers to represent our interests in fighting the NED proposal. Both filed for “Intervenor Status” in Berkshire Gas’ Precedent Agreement docket. Intervenor Status would allow them to submit legal depositions to seek documents, testimony and other undisclosed evidence from Berkshire Gas.
Intervenor Status Was Denied – The DPU said these two organizations have not shown they are “substantially and specifically affected by this proceeding.” In other words, MA DPU thinks WE are not “substantially and specifically affected by this proceeding.” Appeal of this decision has been denied as well.
PS – the New Hampshire Public Utility Commission DID grant intervenor status to PLAN-NorthEast for the Liberty Utility proceedings.
PPS – here’s a news tidbit – Berkshire Gas Co. is just a small part of a US subsidiary of the multi-national, energy transport corporation Iberdrola, headquartered in Spain. They don’t have the least concern about what is good for Western MA. They are interested in as much build-out of energy infrastructure as they can get, whether it be for renewables or fossil fuel.
We need to stand up for our rights, and we deserve for our legal representatives to have full access to information. Our complacency and/or our silence just opens the door wider for big monied interests to run the show.
Our legal representatives having greater access to information can only increase the chances of us stopping the NED and promoting the renewable energy infrastructure we all want…and really do need.
Contact your State Legislators about holding a Legislative Hearing on DPU’s ruling to deny Intervenor Status to MassPLAN, NEES, and State Rep. Stephen Kulik. Please see Rose Wessel’s (NoFrackedGasinMass) excellent article with details and links of “what you can do.” There is even a sample letter to get you started!
Copy all your state legislators (find them here), Governor Baker, Maura Healey (MA Attorney General).
Copy the members of the MA Joint Committee on Telecommunications, Utilities, and Energy (you can find the members here, and clicking on their names automatically opens an email addressed to them).
If you’d like to join the 350Mass-Berkshires Legislative Team, please contact us at info@350MA-Berkshires.org.
Visit our Resources page for a complete list of legislative contacts with links to email, sample letters, and more!
We elect people to represent us, but we need to continue the relationship and let them know how we feel.
I’m writing about…..; I just learned …….
Try to stay focused on relevant facts with a sprinkle of personal.
Given that their role is …….
I appreciate…..; Thank you for ….
I hope to hear from you about….
I’m writing about the recent decision of the MA DPU to deny Intervenor Status to Rep. Stephen Kulik and Mass Pipeline Awareness Network (MassPLAN) in the Berkshire Gas precedent agreement hearing for Docket 15-37. Berkshire Gas wants to enter into long-term contracts with Kinder Morgan to buy gas transported through the proposed Northeast Energy Direct Pipeline. The DPU has decided neither Rep. Kulik nor the members of MassPLAN (of which I am a member) are “substantially and specifically affected by this proceeding.” Kinder Morgan will use this contract to justify to the FERC the “need” for the pipeline.
I believe Massachusetts can meet its energy needs without this pipeline, and since I may be forced to pay for the pipeline, and I will most certainly have to live with the consequences of MA investing in and burning more fossil fuel – in addition to the collateral effects on renewable resources development should this pipeline project go forward – this seems a most unreasonable and undemocratic decision by the MA DPU. I feel my right and the right of many others in your district to full representation is being denied.
I am asking you today, as my representative, to please do what you can to hold a Legislative Hearing on this DPU decision. This decision should not be allowed to “slide” through.
I look forward to hearing what action you can take to help.
Thank you for what you already do to promote renewable energy in our state.

New video from what appears to be the first map outside of Operation Metro, and Caspian Border for Battlefied 3 multiplayer has hit the web this morning. In the video, Alexsander Grondal of DICE takes us on a walkthrough of the map on Conquest Mode. Operation Firestorm is explained as a “classic Battlefield map” with “all the ingredients” meaning it has a mix of open areas, vehicle gameplay, as well as structures near each control point.
Grondal also explains some of the vehicle unlocks in Battlefield 3, which are said to be nearly as extensive as the personnel equipment.
There’s plenty of new gameplay in the two part video which is included below. Battlefield 3 is currently in beta for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC, with a release date approaching on October 25th.

Want to take a ride above Downtown Miami and Brickell (Miami’s financial district) without spending a dime? Go to the other side across the bridge from South Beach. That is, take the MacArthur Causeway until it reaches mainland (the S and the C buses will take you). There’s a bus station there called “OMNI Station.” Once there, if you look up, you’ll see the Metromover tracks and the escalator that takes you there.
This little electrical train runs every day from 5am until midnight and connects the Downtown Miami, Brickell, Park West and Omni neighborhoods. It arrives frequently and you can transfer between routes at specific points. Here’s a map with the Metromover stations.
The best part, the Miami Metromover is FREE.
Rmember, the routes are loops which means that, if you stay in the cart, you’ll eventually arrive again to the station where you took it.
One suggestion: Let it take you to Bayside Marketplace (a few stops away) and enjoy a nice meal or do some shopping.
Inner Loop: the shortest ride. Circles the Downtown Miami area.
Omni Loop: Circles the Downtown Miami area and heads North towards the PAMM – Perez Art Museum Miami.
Brickell Loop: Circles the Downtown Miami area and heads towards Brickell and the Financial District.

One-third of fliers would pay extra to avoid sitting with children.
There are several ways to work the system in order to avoid sitting next to a baby on a plane.
One way is to choose a seat far away from the partitions or "bulkheads," — they're the only place on a plane to safely secure a bassinet.
Another tip is to go for night flights when possible.
We get it, babies are cute and all, but sitting next to one on a long-distance flight can be nothing short of torture. Sure, their precious little face will get them a few brownie points, but the second that infant wakes up and starts wailing, all bets are off.
And we aren't the only ones who think this way. According to a 2011 TripAdvisor survey, about one-third of fliers would willingly pay a little extra to avoid sitting with children. Sadly, this special airline upgrade isn't available just yet. However, according to experts, there are a few ways you can work the system and avoid sitting next to a screaming toddler on your next flight.
"While there's no escaping (or blaming) the shrill of an upset child, you can lower your odds of sitting directly next to one by choosing a seat that's located far from the partitions on board," one Reddit user shared on a thread revealing airport secrets. "These partitions, which go by the technical name 'bulkheads,' are the only places on an aircraft where a parent can safely secure a baby's bassinet — and are, therefore, where most children under one year old will be situated."
Bassinets can only be safely secured to the plane's "bulkheads."
On another message board, user Kate Gregory suggests booking your seat somewhere that may be inconvenient for a parent traveling with a small child.
"Try to choose flights that are more of a hassle for parents. Generally this means night flights — some parents may be sure their child will sleep (and not bother you) but others are worried the child will not sleep and will cry. So they take a daytime flight and are willing to entertain them for the length of the flight," Gregory wrote.
Next, she added that buying a more expensive ticket, like those in first, business, or economy plus, could help you avoid a baby seatmate as well. "And do what you can to improve things at whatever seat you have," Gregory said. "Bring noise cancelling headphones in addition to earplugs."
Lastly, you could always try paying off a fellow passenger to switch seats.
"Bring $20 - $50 cash," traveler Fabio Beltramini suggested. "After you board, if you happen to be near a toddler, find a more preferable seat that seems to have a solo passenger in it, and make an attractive cash offer to the person who currently has that seat to switch with you. Be upfront with your reason for wanting to switch, as they will likely be suspicious otherwise."
And if all else fails, take the flight as the perfect opportunity to perfect your peek-a-boo game and just give in to the kid's otherworldly adorable charms.

I promised to keep you updated with construction updates going on in Walt Disney World’s Downtown Disney. Every time we visit lately there is something new to see.
I am getting used to the parking garage. It has plenty of parking spaces and it has ended that fun game of finding a parking spot by circling and riding up and down the rows. The new parking garage doesn’t have any Disney touches, it could be in your hometown. What it does have is a state of the art system for finding a parking spot! See the sign outside with the number of available spaces on each level?
As you are going up the ramp you can see the updated availability.
At the end of each row you will see a sign indicating the number of free spaces in that row. If you look up at these lights it will glow red or green. If it is green it indicates a free parking spot. When you leave the spot it will turn red for about 15 seconds then turn green as you pull away. While you are parked the light is not on. This was fantastic!
There have been a number of new stores open on the West Side. The walkway they built to get to the water taxis is now closed.
This is a new shoe store.
The selection of hats for men and women is amazing. It also seems to be very popular already!
The new walkway opened while we were there. This will be a big help with the crowds on the Marketplace side. You can now make a complete circle around the lake. It should help lessen the congestion over by the Lego Store.
The 4 new kiosks that will be opening soon on the new walkway.
There are a number of seating areas on this new walkway if you would like to sit and enjoy the view.
I am loving the feel of the new Downtown Disney! It is going to be awesome when it is finished. There are a few new restaurants that are coming that look very interesting. For all the delays, changes in theming I think Disney got it right with Disney Springs! The only problem at this time is the construction on Buena Vista Drive. They are widening the road and creating overhead pedestrian walkways. It looks like a war zone with all the orange barrels, piles of dirt and the cranes. Once it is done it will be wonderful but we have to live through this growing pain stage. All the work hasn’t chased me away yet. We do go during the off peak weekdays so I can’t speak to the weekend crowds but you might want to reconsider staying away from Downtown Disney during the construction. If you have been lately, what do you think? Tell us in the comments below. Till next time, see you in the parks!
We were just there this week and in December. We avoided Downtown Disney because of the construction for so long, but it has really come along nicely. The parking garage helped and I can’t wait for more parking to be completed on the Marketplace side, since we spend more time over there. The causeway opened two days after our visit, but it will definitely help congestion. Still a lot of construction walls, but it’s easy to see the potential.
I was there last night & it took an hour to get from Hollywood Studios to there. We didn’t have the option to park in the garage. It was bad. I would avoid it on the weekends for sure.
Is ther a fee to use the Parking lot? If so what is it?
There is no fee to park anywhere at Downtown Disney.
If the garage works like it should, it will be awesome! Thanks for the update!
Great pictures as always. Surprising that they didn’t go with “Disney” naming of the levels instead of L2 etc. I think it would be easier to remember you are on the Figment level! Should you get a chance to go some evening it would be great to see pictures of the new walkway and the water at night. Thanks for keeping us up to date!
Wow! Thank you so much for the info. You’re doing a great job. My husband and I went to Animal Kingdom & Magic Kingdom yesterday but decided to avoid the village because we were pretty sure that most of the construction was still underway.

Welcome Back!! This is the next installment of the BEST OF… Blog tour. This month features a cute set called “Brides and Babies”.
ANYWAY…. back to the card… Gift card holder. Well… as much as I’d love to take credit for this, I must tell you that my friend, and fellow Maui Stamper, Cheryl Hamilton made me a little holder like this with a tea bag in it. After my back surgery… She had a completely different design, but the overall folder was the same. You should check her out sometime (createwithcheryl.wordpress.com).
Can you kinda faintly see the score marks?
Here is how to cut… Line a score mark up on the top part of the cutting surface of your trimmer and the corner of the paper on the bottom of the cutting surface of your trimmer.
Fold on the score line. Add adhesive on the bottom, straight edge of the paper and that makes the pocket when it is folded over. If you want any trim work on the edge, you should add that before you glue the pocket down. (I added that scallop trim border punch–but the edgelits we have would look fantastic too).
It kinda just comes off in this photo as shine, but it is very pretty… a little sparkly but not at all over-powering… I love this paper for holidays and special occasions.

More than 11,000 businesses are being advised to prepare for new energy and emission rules due to come into effect this April.
The Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) has published new guidance, designed to help UK companies to comply with the Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) regulations.
It aims to help all organisations with voluntary reporting on a range of environmental matters, including greenhouse gas reporting and the use of key performance indicators (KPIs).
The new rules, which will take effect from 1st April 2019, require all large companies to report on their global energy use in addition to greenhouse gas emissions in their annual Directors’ Report.
The measures are expected to help improve corporate transparency for investors and drive energy efficiency to deliver energy cost and carbon savings.
Energy and Clean Growth Minister Claire Perry said: “If you don’t measure it, you can’t manage it. New simplified rules will ensure more than 11,000 large businesses report on carbon emissions and cut down the amount of energy they use.
Relevant: Ensure the data collected and reported appropriately reflects the environmental impacts of your organisation and serves the decision-making needs of users.
Quantitative: KPIs need to be measurable and targets can be set to reduce a particular impact. In this way, the effectiveness of environmental policies and management systems can be evaluated and validated. Quantitative information should be accompanied by a narrative, explaining its purpose, impacts and giving comparators where appropriate.
Accuracy: Seek to reduce uncertainties in the reported figures where practical and achieve sufficient accuracy to enable users to make decisions with reasonable confidence as to the integrity of the reported information.
Completeness: Quantify and report on all sources of environmental impact within the reporting boundary that has been defined as well as disclose and justify any specific exclusions.
Consistent: Use consistent methodologies to allow for meaningful comparisons of environmental impact data over time. Document any changes to the data, change in organisational boundary, methods and any other relevant factors.
Comparable: Companies should report data using accepted KPIs rather than organisations inventing their own versions of potentially standard indicators.
Transparent: Address all relevant issues in a factual and coherent manner, keeping a record of all assumptions, calculations and methodologies used. Internal processes, systems and procedures are important and the quantitative data will be greatly enhanced if accompanied by a description of how and why the data are collected. Report on any relevant assumptions and make appropriate references to methodologies and data sources used.

Fresh Meat Productions is proud to co-sponsor a special program at the 32nd annual Frameline Film Festival, featuring two films: Simply Love and Envisioning Justice: The Journey of a Transgendered Woman.
Simply Love (director Eveline van Dijck): In the time since Marcel and Marijke were teenage sweethearts, they’ve married and raised families. And Marcel has become Marcella. Simply Love is the surprising sequel to Eveline van Dijck’s 1993 documentary A Change of View, which followed Marcel during his transition to Marcella. Now, 15 years later, when Marijke seeks out Marcel after a forty-year absence, there is no question that the affections they enjoyed in 1964 are just as vital today, regardless of the changes that have intervened. The reunited couple decides to recommit to their relationship, move in together, meet each other’s families and plan for marriage. They encounter some obstacles along the way, but van Dijck respectfully skates on the edges of the lovers’ lives, allowing us to empathize and endure the troubles along with them. And though their remarkable story is the sort inspired by fairytales, their circumstances are decidedly true-to-life. 50 minutes running time. Dutch with English subtitles.
Envisioning Justice: The Journey of a Transgendered Woman (director Larry Tung) is an engaging portrait of Pauline Park, transnational and transgender activist extraordinaire, who started her life’s journey as a Korean orphan raised by white, Lutheran parents in Wisconsin. Combining demonstrations of Park’s activism with interviews with her longtime friends, director Larry Tung offers a rare glimpse into the life of a model activist and academic in the community.
Presented by Frameline, co-sponsored by Fresh Meat Productions and the San Francisco LGBT Community Center.

Draft dice and use the tools-of-the-trade to carefully construct your stained glass window masterpiece.Each player will build a stained glass window by building up a grid of dice on their player board. Each board has some restrictions on which color or shade (value) of die can be placed there. Dice of the same shade or color may never be placed next to each other.Dice are drafted in player order, with the start player rotating each round, snaking back around after the last player drafts 2 dice.Special tools can be used to help you break the rules by spending skill tokens -- however, once a tool is used, it then requires more skill tokens for the next player to use them.Scoring is variable per game based on achieving various patterns and varieties of placement... as well as bonus points for dark shades of a particular hidden goal color.The highest scoring window artisan is the winner!

Nick and Vanessa are also parents to Camden, 5, and Brooklyn, 2.
For someone who’s been scoring some of the highest points on DWTS this season, it’s hard to believe that Victoria was once paralyzed. She’s commemorating the year 2017, not only because she’s fully regained her strength, but because it’s the year she was able to use her legs and commit to the show.
When she was just 11 years old, Victoria developed two rare conditions known as transverse myelitis and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis. This caused her to quickly lose the ability to speak, eat, walk and move, and was told by doctors that there was little hope for survival and that recovery was highly unlikely. In 2010, she learned how to speak, eat and move again, and six years later, she learned how to walk after spending nearly a decade paralyzed from the waist down.

The title of this film tells me two things about the main character: one, he is under a great deal of stress; two, he probably doesn’t keep girlfriends for long.
But seriously, folks, this is a nifty film noir, one of the earliest, in which pretty much everything works. The story is about a sports promoter (Victor Mature) who is the prime – only – suspect in the murder of a beautiful young former waitress (Carole Landis) whom he was lifting to celebrity. On his side is the victim’s sister (Betty Grable) who, reluctantly, has fallen in love with Mature. Against him is the unstoppable veteran detective (Laird Cregar) heading the inquiry.
The writing here is better than I expected, with time taken – but not wasted – to build characters, and with humour added to lighten - but not change - the mood. The mystery of who killed Landis is given more than one plot-twist, and even when the murderer’s identity is revealed, there is another surprise that is as logical as it is unexpected.
Just as important to I Wake Up Screaming is the acting, making the characters real. Mature begins cocky, but reveals himself as a poor boy made good, someone who enjoys the luxuries he has won for himself but remains loyal to his old neighbourhood. Though his character lives largely at night clubs and sporting events, Mature leaves no doubt that he is a good match for the quiet, shy Grable. Pin-up girl and superstar Grable is equally convincing as the cautious heroine; the chemistry she and Mature share makes their conversations, and especially their humour, realistic.
But it is often the secondary actors who come to the fore in movies, and here Laird Cregar shoulders his ample size to notice. His detective embodies menace which, at first, is assumed to be directed at any evil-doer. It is only later that the viewer sees that his doggedness in pursuit of Mature has become obsession. The creepiness that he exudes is only assisted by the lighting used; for the most part, it is all Cregar and, despite his frightening fanaticism, he manages eventually to create pity for his unlikeable character.
Also on hand are Elisha Cook in an early role, displaying an unsettling nervousness, and Allyn Joslyn and Alan Mowbray as Mature’s pals, both of whom give their characters unanticipated pathos.
I Wake Up Screaming was re-made twelve years later as Vicki. I don’t care for re-makes on principle and have not seen Vicki, but it would have to go some distance to improve on this effective film noir that was simply done right.
I remember seeing this on TV years ago when I was a kid. (My grandmother ADORED Victor Mature, so she wanted to see it.) As I recall, it really was pretty good. If I can find it online, I'd like to watch it again.

Motorsport fans chance to drive with Mika Hakkinen and raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity.
Motorsport fans are bidding on a once in a lifetime experience to drive alongside two-times F1 World Champion, Mika Hakkinen, to raise much needed funds for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity, thanks to myHermes.co.uk.
As if this prize is not enough by itself, I will also be at the event to cheer things along, so if you fancy sharing a coffee with Molly, make your bid now.
All proceeds go towards Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity, whose pioneering research and treatment gives hope to children who are suffering from the rarest, most complex and often life-threatening conditions, from across the country and abroad.
The auction prizes include one 60-minute driving lesson with Mika Hakkinen, two 30-minute driving lessons and two 15-minute driving lessons, all complete with hot laps in an AMG Mercedes, training sessions with a qualified instructor and a three course lunch with Mika.
This would be amazing, Hakkinen is a legend of Formula 1. I used to love the battles he had with Schumacher, both are great drivers. It’s great to see sportsmen doing their bit to help charities raise money.

January 14, 2017 - Our adventure today was to visit the small, beautiful San Secondo d'Asti Catholic Church in Ontario, CA. In 1900, Secondo Guasti, an Italian immigrant moved to California and pioneered grape growing in the area. Eventually his property grew to 5,000 acres of grapevines at its peak in 1917. Mr. and Mrs. Secondo Guasti built this church to resemble the 17th century structure from his native village in Asti, Italy. In 1924, the Guasti family brought woodworkers and stonemasons from Mexico and Italy to build the church. It was completed in 1926 and dedicated on October 3, 1926, by Bishop John J. Cantwell of Los Angeles. In 1935 the Guasti family, through the Italian Vineyard Company, donated the church to the Diocese of Los Angeles and San Diego. Since 1978, it has been in the Diocese of San Bernardino.
The stained glass is a representation of St. Secundus (San Secondo), who was a military officer of Imperial Rome. Like Secondo Guasti, he was also a citizen of the town of Asti, in the Piedmont region of Italy. St. Secundus encountered persecution for his Christian faith when he dared to bury the body of the martyred St. Marcianus of Tortona. St. Marcianus was the first bishop of Piedmont, and is said to have been a disciple of St. Barnabas (the companion of the Apostle Paul). After performing that work of mercy, St. Secundus fled to Asti, but he was arrested and after cruel tortures, beheaded. Mr. Guasti's namesake was San Secondo.
It's a beautiful church that reminded us of some of the small country churches that we've seen in Italy. Since it opened in 1926 it has continuously operated for 91 years thanks to the vision of Mr. and Mrs. Guasti. It was a wonderful adventure topped off by this view of Mt. Baldy after we left the church.

Is Exact Match Anchor Text a Passe?
Comments Off on Is Exact Match Anchor Text a Passe?
Google has one of the biggest loop holes in the Internet search history, and it’s the exact matched anchor text. It has evolved from using a money keywords in your domain name to using a money keyword in your links to completely disappearing slowly.
I must say SEO is good and bad at the same time. However, if ranking is your sole survival and without ranking #1 on Google, you lose your income would you do everything in your power to rank?
Google punishes SEO a lot and with good reason. Many SEO newbies ruin everything by doing and implementing things in excess. If they know posting comments work they post millions of spam comments, etc.
So here is the fact of life, and I hope you get it. If you’re new or having a new site, you will not see the light of day on Google unless you do some kind of back linking. Google is a machine, and a machine needs to see some verifiable data. So Google’s machine is getting smarter. However, it’s still needed to see some data by reading your anchor text to know what is about your site to rank you. After all, it has to sift through million of pages and use “human” created an algorithm by doing lots of trails and errors to make a machine to know what your website is all about.
A machine needs data – things such as if a website speaks about ranking, linking, and anchor text it must be about SEO … or a website that speaks about make money from home, or sell some products with shopping cart on it, after that it must be an affiliate website, etc. It is examining through millions of pages to find “pattern” about something – and if your site matches those patterns it will pick you. Then among the sites it picks it will choose those that have the most clout like have more quality back links – etc.

One of the great features of the OpenAMv13 and OpenIDMv4 releases is actually not a feature of those products at all. I'm talking about the Self-Service capability which is actually part of the 'COMMONS' project at ForgeRock. As the name suggests, the functionality on 'Commons' may be found in more than one of the final products. Commons includes capabilities such as audit logging, the CREST framework, the UI framework, as well as the User Self-Service functionality.
Now there is lots of good documentation about how to make use of the User Self-Service functionality as exposed through the OpenAM and OpenIDM products.
For example, for OpenAM: https://backstage.forgerock.com/#!/docs/openam/13/admin-guide#chap-usr-selfservices, and for OpenIDM: https://backstage.forgerock.com/#!/docs/openidm/4/integrators-guide#ui-configuring.
One thing you might notice from the documentation is that the User Self-Service flows (Registration, Forgotten Password, and Forgotten Username) have the ability to use custom 'plugins' - sometimes called 'stages'. However, another thing you might notice is a distinct lack of documentation on how to go about creating such a plugin/stage and adding it to your configuration.
Note that there is an outstanding JIRA logged for ForgeRock to provide documentation (https://bugster.forgerock.org/jira/browse/OPENIDM-5630) but, in the meantime, this post attempts to serve as an interim. But, I'm only going to use OpenIDM as the target here, not OpenAM.
Fortunately, the JIRA linked above highlights that within the code base there already exists the code for a custom module, and a sample configuration. So, in this post I'll explain the steps required to build, deploy, and configure that pre-existing sample.
The easiest way to do this is to get the code of the Standalone Self-Service application!
If you're following the instructions in this post, and are targeting OpenIDMv4 (as opposed to any later releases) then you'll specifically want v1.0.3 of this SelfService repository.
Now download the code to your local drive so we can build it.
You can see that the 'readme.txt' provides the details of how to compile this project. Note that this will compile the full 'Commons Self-Service' functionality, including the custom stage, in a standalone harness.
Once it's built you can browse to the web site and play with the functionality. Any users registered are held in memory of this harness, and therefore flushed each time you stop the jetty container.
So, go ahead, register a user. The first thing you should see is a "Math Problem" stage. Eh? What? Where did that come from? Well, that's the custom stage!! Yes, this standalone version of Self-Service includes the custom stage!
Assuming you can add 12 and 4 together complete the 'puzzle'. Then follow the remaining steps of the registration (noting that the email gets delivered to FakeSMTP, where you can open it and click the link to complete the registration).
Brilliant! That first item in the stageConfigs array is the "Math Problem" with it's configuration (i.e. which two numbers to sum!) The remaining array items reference 'name' which are the native/in-built modules and their necessary configuration.
Tested a Registration flow that includes the custom stage, along with some native stages.
And what's left to do?
And update the 'selfservice-registration.json' file in your 'conf' folder.
This is OpenIDM's name for the 'registration.json' file of the standalone SelfService app, so use the same configuration snippet you saw in the standalone app.
It seems that this method will not allow you to see the custom stage in the Admin UI for OpenIDM. Happily, changes made within the Admin UI do not remove the custom stage from the file. However, be warned that if you disable, then re-enable SelfService Registration there is no guarantee that custom stage will be added into the re-created 'selfservice-registration.json' file in the correct place.
So, with User Self Registration enabled, and the custom stage included in the config, when a user tries to register they will be prompted for the calculation at the appropriate point in the flow.
Custom Stage in OpenIDM flow!
As you can see I have use the pre-supplied custom stage. Showing one approach to building, deploying and configuring it. If you need a custom stage to do something different, then you'll have to investigate the interfaces that need implementing in order to develop a custom stage.
Just created my own custom stage and put the jar in the bundle directory, after restart it fails to start the selfservice as it is unable to locate the class which I just created and put in the selfservice-reset.json (running in the selfservice-example works just fine). Any clue to why it fails?
Does OpenIDM has any API exposed for user self-service?

I had to buy lemons the other day. Usually I wouldn’t, as so many of our friends and family have them growing in the backyard. But this was an emergency, there was no chance of seeing any of those folks, and I had desserts to make.
Turns out a bag of small, ripe lemons didn’t break the bank. And you get quite a number. Half went towards the compilation of a tangy citrus tart, the other half waited until last night to be utilised. I couldn’t bear to let them go to waste, so what better excuse than to make a crunchy, tangy, utterly irresistible, gluten-free polenta cake?
I think this is going to be lunch.
Preheat the oven to 170 deg C (340F). Grease a deep 18cm (7-inch) round cake tin and line base with baking paper.
Beat together the butter and sugar either with an electric beater until soft and fluffy. Add in the eggs a little at a time, whisking well after each addition. Add the ground almonds and vanilla extract. Sift the polenta, baking powder, and salt over. Add the lemon zest and juice and fold everything in gently with a metal spoon.
Transfer the cake mixture to the prepared tin and level the surface. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until risen, golden and firm to touch. Remove the cake from the oven.
To make the syrup, gently heat together the lemon juice, water and icing sugar in a small saucepan, stirring until the sugar has completely dissolved.
Stab the cake all over with a wooden cocktail stick (skewer), making the holes go almost to the base. Spoon the hot syrup over the cake – there is quite a lot but it all soaks in.
Leave the cake to cool completely in the tin before turning out and removing the baking paper.
*To make this cake vegan, replace the eggs with 1 flax egg and 1/4 cup applesauce.

I was sent this product to review only about 2 weeks ago, and already I am obsessed with it!
works in three ways for skin that feels refreshed, revived and completely clean. Detoxifies deep with a purifying formula made with natural fruit acids that work with the shower's steam to deeply cleanse the pores. Exfoliating beads sweep away dead surface skin, while natural skin conditioners leave skin soft and smooth.
This is probably what I would call a mask - and 'works with the steam in your shower'. Clean & Clear claims that this 'detoxifies, smoothes & softens skin in one minute'. Directions say to apply it in the shower, on a wet face, leave on for a minute, then massage into skin and rinse off.
I tend to slather this on my wet face before I step into the shower, and wash it off after I've washed my hair, so I give it enough time to sink in. Then I massage the grainy beads into my skin and wash everything off. After I wash it off, my goodness does my skin feel amazing!
It feels tingly and fresh, with a yummy minty smell. It also feels exceptionally smooth and soft. Softens and smoothens? check.
After using this product for about 2 weeks, 2-3 times a week, I can honestly say that my skin is clearer overall. I do believe this product has helped a lot with the congestion and breakouts I've been suffering recently. Detoxifies? Check.
I LOVE this! I highly recommend this little gem. It retails for AUD 10.79 and is, in my opinion, worth every cent.
One thing to note about this product is that it contains AHA, which can leave your skin vulnerable to UV rays. So though this is a given even if you're not using this product, remember to apply sunscreen!

Most low cost airlines charge you extra for everything including; hold luggage, if you want to pay by debit card, or by credit card, to book your seats, to check in at the airport, some have even mentioned charging for the use of the toilet onboard, but I expect that was just a publicity stunt.
So you have been given the task of arranging a stag do and you don’t know where to start, hopefully this 101 guide to arranging the ultimate stag do will help steer you in the right direction.
9. Be flexible at this stage you may not be able to fulfil all his expectations, however try and cover as many as you can.
Looking for stag do ideas for January?
Wow, well firstly ouch, just after Christmas, the boys are going to be skint!
With this in mind DesignaVenture has a cracking stag do in Reading which is such great value for money; the Bank of England have been in touch asking us how we've done it.
1 Night in a city centre 4 star hotelBreakfastPaintball which includes 100 roundsHovercraftsClay Pigeon ShootingGuest List Nightclub Entry Now that's value for money people!
What about indoor activities, staying inside in January is always a good idea. If the stag has demanded real snow then a trip to Milton Keynes could be your safest and cheapest bet.
Milton Keynes is not only an extremely modern town / city it has loads of indoor activities including ski-ing, snowboarding and tobogganing.
We all know that a stag do without a daytime activity can be lethal, especially if there's a day to kill and nowhere to go, except the pub that is and drinking too much can turn a stag night into a stag nightmare.
So I have put together 5 cracking stag do activity ideas, for loads more stag activities and ideas browse here.
If adrenalin fuelled activities are high up on the stag do activities list then you cannot go wrong with Coasteering or Canyoning.
Jumping off high ledges into deep pools whether they are filled with sea (Coasteering) or fresh water (Canyoning) you cannot get away from the fact that these two activities are pretty awesome.
You don't have to worry about getting any specialised equipment as the beauty about booking your activity through a company such as DesignaVenture is we include the specialised equipment you just need to bring along with you swimwear, trainers (you don't mind getting wet) and balls of steel.

The Queensland Government has proposed new environmental laws for groundwater extraction which will make it tougher for resource companies wanting to extract groundwater for mining activities.
Under these new laws resource companies with a tenure that is a mining lease, petroleum lease or mineral development lease will be subject to a tougher assessment of environmental impacts.
Minister for Environment Dr Steven Miles, who tabled the Environmental Protection (Underground Water Management) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2016 in Parliament, said the new laws will give the environment department greater power to scrutinise mining and petroleum companies.
“Under the new laws, the environment department will have stronger, clearer powers to assess the potential environmental impacts of groundwater extraction as part of the Environmental Authority (EA) process,” Dr Miles said.
“That will mean a rigorous scientific assessment of the impact of mining projects on groundwater would be required before an environmental approval is issued for new mining projects.
“These laws address widespread concern about the LNP’s so-called ‘unlimited right to take’.
Dr Miles said this process will maintain proper environmental scrutiny of groundwater extraction impacts.
“Community objections will be allowed as part of the environmental approval stage, instead of the current objection process used in water licences,” Dr Miles said.
The laws will apply to new EA applications received by the Department of Environment and Heritage Protection (EHP) for resource activities that include groundwater extraction under the new right to take.
Existing holders of a water licence, administered by the Department of Natural Resources and Mines (DNRM), would continue to operate under that water licence.
Companies which have applied for, or been granted an EA, but have not yet secured a water licence, would still need to seek a water licence from DNRM that involves an environmental assessment of groundwater impacts, subject to public scrutiny and third party appeals.
Dr Miles said the new laws would also strengthen protection for farmers and other rural landholders by improving the existing make good obligations under the Water Act 2000.
“The new laws will help landholders who are affected by gassy bores. Gassy bores can damage farm equipment, can interrupt the flow of water from a bore or can leave water in a condition where it is not fit for use on the farm,” Dr Miles said.
“The Bill clarifies that make good obligations arise where underground water rights are the likely cause of impairment, even if there is an uncertainty.
Dr Miles said the laws will also require resource companies to pay a landholder’s costs in engaging a hydrogeologist for the purposes of negotiating a make good agreement.

When founders get connected to investors, they are often asked to send the deck ahead of the meeting. We’ve written here why sending the decks, especially before the first meeting, is generally not a good idea.
Startup founders cannot be defined by their decks.
The main issue with a pitch deck is that it is subject to misinterpretation. Investors get a lot of decks and they tend to skim and glance over them.
The founders aren’t able to tell their story, because they aren’t present.
The second issue with decks is that it is hard to capture the passion and the personality of the founders. Sure, a deck can have a creative design, but that’s not the same as hearing the founder talk about the business.
The third issue is that decks are flat.
In a world where everything is video/3D, the investor pitch decks are still bits of flat text.
What if, instead of sending a deck, the founders sent a 3-4 minute video walking the investor through the deck?
Having the founder narrate the deck seems like a simple idea that should solve for all the issues above. That’s why we are encouraging the founders in our Techstars NYC Summer 2016 class to do just that.
To having Sarah, former florist and now CEO of LeBlum, walk through it.
Sarah makes this deck come alive. Her presentation is genuine and clear. It conveys passion and credibility. Sarah transforms the set of slides into a presentation.
Here is another deck from Rob at Skopenow.
Rob starts with a hook; he phrases a question in a way that grabs the viewer, and immediately explains the business. Rob’s presentation is full of confidence and clarity. His product demo is so great and so natural. It’s nearly impossible to have a demo like this in the deck.
Here is another presentation, from Erica Jain, CEO of Healthie.
There is no way that investors would know just how passionate and excited Erica is about Healthie and making people’s lives better without watching the video.
Pitch videos are MUCH BETTER than pitch decks.
These pitches are 3-4 minutes, and just like with a deck, investors can skim through or skip around.
By filming the pitch in this specific format, we allow investors to focus on the slides. More importantly, the founder is able to maintain the connection with the investor and narrate the deck.
In order to record the pitches, we used a straightforward process wherein founders memorized the pitch and used a clicker to advance the slides. We recorded both the founder and the slides using screen capture software, and did minimal editing to combine the two.
Anyone can do this with a bit of practice. Feel free to reach out to Dan and Jay who helped us make the pitches in this post.
Early feedback from investors has been great. We are using this format for our investor preview, and people love the format.
Going forward, we are going to encourage all of our founders to send investors their video pitch.
We believe that this is a better, more modern way to start a conversation with investors.
YESSSSS! Investors need this, and it will save founders dozens of wasted meetings by letting investors qualify themselves pre-meeting. Great job!
Thank you, Ty! Always appreciate your feedback and support.
Great idea! Have found that having prior context makes call or mtg less of an explanation/evaluation and more of a conversation on equal footing.
Alex, this is amazing! As a founder it’s easier to show the product and connect with investors on a personal level using this format.
Definitely a post with more details so that this format is standardised would be useful.
I’d improve the lighting a bit! Otherwise, this is a great idea. I think Video Pitches are definitely going to overtake Pitch Decks in a few years.
Good videos! I agree this is much better and the future.

BACKGROUND: Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1 (APS-1) is a multiorgan autoimmune disorder caused by mutations in AIRE, the autoimmune regulator gene. Though recent studies concerning AIRE deficiency have begun to elucidate the molecular pathogenesis of organ-specific autoimmunity in patients with APS-1, the autoantigen responsible for hypoparathyroidism, a hallmark of APS-1 and its most common autoimmune endocrinopathy, has not yet been identified. METHODS: We performed immunoscreening of a human parathyroid complementary DNA library, using serum samples from patients with APS-1 and hypoparathyroidism, to identify patients with reactivity to the NACHT leucine-rich-repeat protein 5 (NALP5). Subsequently, serum samples from 87 patients with APS-1 and 293 controls, including patients with other autoimmune disorders, were used to determine the frequency and specificity of autoantibodies against NALP5. In addition, the expression of NALP5 was investigated in various tissues. RESULTS: NALP5-specific autoantibodies were detected in 49% of the patients with APS-1 and hypoparathyroidism but were absent in all patients with APS-1 but without hypoparathyroidism, in all patients with other autoimmune endocrine disorders, and in all healthy controls. NALP5 was predominantly expressed in the cytoplasm of parathyroid chief cells. CONCLUSIONS: NALP5 appears to be a tissue-specific autoantigen involved in hypoparathyroidism in patients with APS-1. Autoantibodies against NALP5 appear to be highly specific and may be diagnostic for this prominent component of APS-1.

Once you’ve ooh-ed and ah-ed at Michelangelo’s David, step into the soothing exhibition space of Florence’s Accademia Gallery for a top-tier show that focuses on the importance of textile production in 14th-century Florence.
First up in Textiles and riches in 14th-century Florence. Wool, silk and painting is the Mediterranean Geographies section with references to the Muslim world, followed by the Luxury of Mongolian Asia bursting with plant and animal motifs. Winged Creatures are next in line, featuring Chinese-influenced textiles, while Pictorial Inventions conjure up creative prized silk designs woven by the very best weavers. The Forbidden Luxury section draws inspiration from the 1343-45 register that listed forbidden items of clothing in the pamphlet Prammatica delle vesti delle donne fiorentine. The show ends with Silk Velvets, anticipating developments in the next century’s fashion.
Admire a graceful wool dress on loan from the National Museum of Copenhagen, made in the mid 14th century for a girl and retrieved by archaeologist in Greenland; Giovanni Baronzio’s Baptism of Christ, from the National Gallery of Washington; a fragment of fabric showing phoenixes and vine leaves, from Prato’s Textile Museum; and the Pourpoint of Charles de Blois, a silk and gold waistcoat from Lyon’s Musée des Tissus. The paintings on display include the Coronation of the Virgin Mary and Four Angels by Gherardo di Jacopo, from the National Gallery of Parma, in addition to the late 13th-century crucifix belonging to the Accademia and restored for the exhibition.

The claim that there is an absolute order and an absolute demand made upon man always supposes a claim to know the whole, the totality of things, the infinite. But if our knowledge is in fact not yet final, if there is an irreducible tension between concept and being, then no proposition can claim the dignity of perfect knowledge. Knowledge of the infinite must itself be infinite, and a knowledge which is admittedly imperfect is not a knowledge of the absolute. Consequently metaphysics tends to regard the whole world as the product of reason, for reason knows only itself perfectly.
Even the possibility of establishing certain general human traits by considering man in his past history does not lead to a hypostatization of these traits as suprahistorical factors.

Breakfast clubs, lessons, lunch time talks and after-school events are all promoting the positive side of taking risks.
Whether students are trying roller skating for the first time, hearing about opportunities to work abroad, taking the leap to set up a business online, or simply trying a new club they wouldn't normally be confident enough to try, everyone is being encouraged to step out of their comfort zone.
Be brave, take the leap, try something new!

This beach ranks #2 of the "Best beaches in Cuba"
There are few dozen "all inclusive" hotels in the islands. There are also several budget accommodation options, proposed for the local Cuban people, and it is difficult for foreign tourists to rent room there.
Fly to Havana International Airport (HAV). Next fly to Cayo Coco airport (CCC). (Charter flights to Cayo Coco airport are also available from Canada and Europe.) Next hire a taxi.
You can also reach Cayo Coco island by car from Moron town. Most of the road runs along the causeway connecting the island of Cayo Coco with the mainland.
Any time of year. Sea temperature is relatively cool in the winter half of the year.

San Francisco, Calif. – September 5, 2013 – Appirio, a global cloud services provider, today introduced a new social intranet offering that provides enterprises with the guidance, services and technology necessary to create an employee portal more in line with what today’s mobile, social and global workforce expects. The new solution brings together Appirio’s expertise in Human Capital Management (HCM) and workforce experience, with Appirio’s EdgeForce Social Intranet Framework. Companies get a custom cloud solution without the custom price, and employees get a modern, consumer-grade “intranet” experience that keeps them not only productive but connected and engaged as well.
Less than 25 percent of respondents’ portals are integrated with social platforms, and only 11 percent are optimized for mobile access. However, those who do offer mobile or social capabilities saw more than twice as much engagement (77 percent versus 33 percent).
Cloud, mobile and social technologies make it possible to provide a more consumer grade experience that employees today expect; however, the vast majority of today’s intranets are built using legacy technologies. Cloud technology coupled with employee-centric design enables social intranets to have both a dramatic impact on productivity and efficiency, as well as employee engagement.
Appirio’s social intranet brings the workforce and business applications together in one place, with an extra social layer to communicate and collaborate at a fraction of the price and deployment times of other intranet solutions. Appirio makes it easy for companies of all sizes to get started with a highly prescriptive two-day workshop, and a customized social intranet deployment. However, the strategy workshop can also be a standalone offering assessing an organization’s current intranet and social collaboration environment.
The solution also includes Appirio’s EdgeForce, a social intranet framework giving customers all the reliability, security and extensibility of being built entirely on the Salesforce platform. The powerful framework can integrate with other business and talent management applications such as Salesforce, Workday, Cornerstone OnDemand and Jobvite, giving employees one place to access and interact with day-to-day applications.
Appirio is a global services provider that uses crowdsourcing and cloud, social and mobile technology to help enterprises reimagine their business and become more agile. Appirio brings together technology expertise with a deep understanding of the way people work, and the nearly limitless skills of a crowdsourcing community of 75,000 developers, to help enterprises transform relationships with their customers, partners and workforce. Appirio has worked with more than 500 enterprises, including organizations like Facebook, Intuit, Japan Post Network, L’Oreal, McGraw-Hill, NetApp, The Four Seasons, and Virgin America. The company is backed by Sequoia Capital, GGV Capital and General Atlantic.

In an appeal of the ruling to the Wyoming Supreme Court, Williams' attorney, Jason Tangeman, wrote in his opening brief that Judge Tori Kricken's interpretation of a state law "defies political reality."
Williams is a Uinta County man who openly carried a gun on the Laramie campus during the Wyoming State Republican Party Convention last April in an effort to challenge UW's firearms ban.
However, Kricken ruled in December that the state's pre-emption of gun regulations under the 2010 Wyoming Firearms Freedom Act applies only to guns manufactured within the state.

yeah. it’ll never be enough.
me: so pretty much india is just stuck?
me: well right, but thats what i meant by, there are still such a large portion of people not educated enough.
11:00 PM u just told the most impatient person “a generation or two” great.
On the note of the south being amazingly progressive…to be fair to both sides ALL of India is progressing. Especially in the younger generations. The IT is sometimes just a bunch of people reading prompts in a language they barely understand. I myself have noticed especially kids from Mumbai and Delhi are very forward thinking and analyze India objectively. They know they have to go back and become a part of the system to see the changes. They have the same opinion of India as we do.
So…yes the South has proven to welcome the changes, but that is after years of being very stubborn to open their arms to a progressive/westernized system.
Like I said…I’m in the middle. And I despise this whole “North/South” bs. Im NOT trying to spark anything in that area. Just saying- ALL of India’s younger generations are opening their eyes and aiming to instigate the change they know is necessary.

The book is a relation of the diseases of the Spanish conifers, alphabetically exposed. The results are the synthesis of 4-year collaboration between the IFIE of Spain and the USDA. It is a contribution to an international effort to identify pathogens associated with forest diseases in every continent, to determine the species that parasitize and their geographical distribution. Also to develop and improve measures to be applied, and to prevent or limit their introduction into new habitats. Of the 273 pathogens found in pine and fir, a considerable number of them are capable of destroying whole trees or parts, so careful must be taken to avoid its spread across continents.

In Islamic vocabulary ar-Rahman and al-Raheem are the personal names of the Living God. Both are derived from the noun rahmah, which signifies "mercy", "compassion", and "loving tenderness". Ar-Rahman describes God’s nature of being All-Merciful, while ar-Raheem describes His acts of mercy dispensed to His creation, a subtle difference, but one which shows His all encompassing mercy.
Both are also divine attributes signifying God’s relationship with creation.
These names continuously remind a Muslim of divine mercy surrounding him. All but one of the chapters of Muslim scripture begins with the phrase, ‘In the Name of God, the Most-Merciful, the Dispenser of Mercy.’ Muslims begin in God’s Name to express their ultimate dependence upon Him and remind themselves of divine mercy every time they eat, drink, write a letter, or perform anything of importance. Spirituality blossoms in the mundane. The invocation at the beginning of every mundane act makes it important, calling down divine blessing upon this act and consecrates it. The formula is a popular motif of decoration in manuscripts and architectural ornamentation.
"In the Name of God, the Most-Merciful, the Dispenser of Mercy." Calligraphy by Yousef, a Dutch artist.
Dispensing mercy requires someone to whom mercy is shown. The one who is shown mercy must be in need of it. Perfect mercy is caring for those in need, whereas boundless mercy stretches to those in need or not in need, extending from this world to the wonderful life after death.
In Islamic doctrine, human beings enjoy a personal relationship with the Loving, Merciful God, ever ready to forgive sins and respond to prayers, but He is not merciful in the human sense of feeling sorrow and pity for one in distress. God does not become human to understand suffering. Rather, God’s mercy is an attribute befitting His holiness, bringing divine aid and favors.

Grants are a type of financial aid that you don't have to repay and are usually based on financial need. Grants can come from the federal government, your state government, your college or career school or a private or nonprofit organization.
The most common federal grant for higher education is the Pell Grant, available only to undergraduate students who haven’t earned a degree. Families that demonstrate financial need are eligible to receive a federal Pell Grant. However, there's a limited amount of Pell Grant money available to each borrower.
If your financial need is particularly high, you might qualify for an additional grant, the Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG). These awards supplement Pell Grants and range from $100 to $4,000 a year. They are awarded to recipients with the lowest expected family income. Like Pell Grants, they’re credited to your account or paid to you directly. FSEOG grants are administered by the financial aid office at participating schools, known as “campus-based” aid. Check with your college’s financial aid office to find out if that school offers the FSEOG.
The Academic Competitiveness Grant provides $750 for the first year of study and $1,300 for the second year.
If a student is interested in teaching as a career after college, a TEACH Grant could be the right way to go. This grant provides up to $4,000 per year to students who agree to teach full-time for four years at an elementary school, secondary school, or educational service agency that serves low-income students.
This grant is only for students whose parent or guardian was a member of the U.S. armed forces and died as a result of military service performed in Iraq or Afghanistan after the events of 9/11. Applicants must also have been under 24 years old or enrolled in college at least part-time at the time of their parent or guardian’s death, and they must also meet the eligibility requirements for receiving a federal Pell Grant. Learn more about military service grants and scholarships.
Full-time, part-time, undergraduate and graduate students who qualify to receive financial aid have the option of working part-time while they’re enrolled in college to further fund their education. The Federal Work Study program is administered by participating schools, so you’ll want to contact the school’s financial aid office to find out if it offers work study.
To apply for federal student aid, you need to complete the FAFSA®, the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. Completing and submitting the FAFSA is free and it gives you access to the largest source of financial aid to pay for college or career school. Your FAFSA data is used to determine your eligibility for state and school aid, as well as some private financial aid sources.

That we should learn from the past is a truism. But I reckon at various Christian gatherings I attend, actual stories and reflections from history are almost absent. I decided to start remedying that by asking the Surrender mob for a short slot at the recent shindig. They kindly obliged, and here is the result (in PDF form).
I gave a brief spiel on the Blackburn Community Network (BCN), which existed between the late 1980s and about 2002. Then Petra Brinkworth, Bill Walker and Marcus Curnow faced the baying mob for some questions. There’s definitely a book in tracing the history of radical discipleship in Australia, and this is a small slice of a larger cake.
In 1988, two couples (Greg & Rose Gow, and Grant & Debbie Finlay), inspired by the example of the House of the Gentle Bunyip and the Waiters’ Union, bought a house together in Kevin Avenue, Blackburn North…Kevin Avenue became the inspiration for several “community houses” of (mainly) youth leaders, where they could reach out to those beyond the boundaries of eastern suburban church culture. They enabled us to learn, in an embodied way, what a “discipleship community” could look like. These households also became a staging ground for a wider discipleship community in the Blackburn area.
The BCN acted as an alternative grouping to St Alfred’s Anglican Church, allowing us to experiment with the kinds of mission, discipleship community, prayer, Bible study, hospitality, liturgy and political action that we felt called to. In retrospect I think the St Alfred’s leadership generally did a good job of allowing us the space to try things out (barring some egregious efforts at control). They sometimes “owned” these experiments, sometimes rejected them and at times even had a literal dotted line in their organizational charts to express the ambiguity of their relationship to the BCN.
Influenced by community development and biblical anarchism, the BCN never had a formal membership or leadership structure. It was deliberately open, and people participated by participating. It never had named leadership either. There were forms of implicit membership and leadership, of course, and the fact that we struggled with a consistently “good” way to do these things was often painful. Those who didn’t live in ‘community houses’ often found it difficult to know how to belong. And the lack of named leadership spelled trouble in times of crisis or stress. On the other hand, the fuzziness enabled a bunch of very interesting people to get involved in all sorts of creative ways.
With a focus on hospitality and a non-professional ethos, we wanted to include young people in our lives beyond the “activity-centric” nature of most evangelical youth ministry. However, this was a tension when providing this hospitality to young people who were struggling and damaged. The stress of this work forced us to recognise the need for healthy boundaries. But it was a lesson learnt with difficulty.
We found that our vocation to be among those on the margins often outweighed our desire to make Blackburn a place more like the kingdom of God. Though we prioritised those on the margins in Blackburn, and while local “place-based” issues (such as the anti-freeway protest, local re-vegetation, food security) were important to us, these were ultimately trumped by the desire to do youth work and urban mission in poorer places.

Has there ever been a time where you are dressed and looking at yourself in a mirror, and you feel like something is missing? Your clothes look fabulous, your chosen socks actually match, and you put your shoes on correctly, but something is off. The answer is always gothic jewelry. A necklace or a pair of earrings will bring that classy finish you need.
Ensure you are certain how to keep your jewelery in one place so it is not damaged. Consider delegating each piece to its own resting place, utilizing compartmental boxes and storage units. Avoid just throwing them into a box in an unorganized manner. Storing them improperly can damage the fragile pieces, and necklaces can get tangled with other pieces.
Keep your jewelry,goth jewelry in a relatively air-tight container, and minimize its exposure to humidity. A box designed especially for jewelry,goth jewelry gives the best protection, but a cloth bag can also work. Air and humidity can tarnish metals of all types. You can restore the precious metals back to their former glory, but plated jewelry,goth jewelry is different. Trying to polish those pieces can reveal the non-precious metals underneath, such as copper.
If you are in the market to buy some silver jewelry,goth jewelry, don’t forget to take a magnet along with you. Use the magnet to detect fake gothic jewelry; real silver will not be attracted to the magnet, but the cheaper metals will. Your sterling silver jewelery should always be imprinted if it is real. The stamp may read “.925” or “ster”. If there is no hallmark, the piece is probably not authentic and may, indeed, be counterfeit.
When you buy gothic jewelry, it should last the rest of your life. Always purchase pieces from reputable jewelers in order to make sure you are getting quality pieces. They should show a lot of craftsmanship, as well as be well-made. Make sure the jeweler is able to tell you the history of the piece, including who created it and where any stones come from. If you select high-quality gothic jewelry, it will last you forever.
For gothic jewelry to stay shiny and new-looking, it is important to keep it from tarnishing. Avoid wearing your gothic jewelry near water. Many pieces can become rusty, tarnished or dull when they are exposed to water. Use a thinner coat of your clear nail polish on your jewelry,goth jewelry for extra protection.
As this article shows, gothic jewelry is always the perfect accessory to complete your outfit. There are many different styles of jewelry,goth jewelry to make you look classy, professional or fun. No matter what the occasion, the right gothic jewelry is always appropriate and flattering.

Hi! Sign in to let us know how Odd Job Inc was?
Lorie T. Sep 21 .
We switched over from a small North Branch co. to Odd Jobs when my father in law told us they were so much less expensive than any other and did a wonderful job. And they went to school with my husband.. We have been with them over a year now and we are very satisfied with their services. They are always polite and courteous and we don't come home to our cans blocking our driveway like we used to!! We live in Dryden and they have no problem coming out here.
Odd Job Trash Removal Great Job!
Molly J. Jun 23 .
I have noticed all my neighbors have been switching from Waste Management to Odd Job. They have said that Odd Job is charging much less than the major company in the area and have provided the same quality service.
If you've been to or used Odd Job Inc, leave a review.

Although this climb is relatively easy, the views from the top of Little Adam’s Peak are sensational. Begin the climb with a gentle stroll through a sloping tea field, passing endless neat rows of terraced tea plants, before ascending a short stretch of winding steps up to the top of the peak. From the top, there is a spectacular panorama featuring Ella Rock, rolling tea fields and the Ella gap, a deep gorge that leads all the way down to the southern valleys. On a clear day, you can see all the way to the south coast with the ocean glimmering on the horizon.

In January 2013, British Prime Minister David Cameron pledged that if re-elected in 2015 he would hold an in/out referendum on the United Kingdom’s relationship with the European Union. By June 2016, the UK voted to leave the EU with a 72.2 percent turnout—the highest in a national election since 1992—and with 51.9 percent of the electorate in favor of Brexit.
Many miles away, In April 2013, a terrorist group operating mainly in Iraq and Syria adopted the name: Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). Led by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, ISIL proclaimed the creation of a global Islamic Caliphate in June 2013. From then onwards, a broad and brutal campaign devoted to intimidate, polarize, and terrorize took center stage.
These two phenomena are vastly complex and distinctive occurrences, but they share some singular commonalities that deserve a more thorough evaluation. It is essential to avoid categorical conclusions. Asking why and how they happen is crucial. If we try to understand, rather than judge, we may improve and even refine the analysis of what has been going on.
Both cases arise at a time marked by widespread and severe social, economic, and political malaise that has been expressed in both peaceful and violent ways. We are not witnessing an episodic or country-specific malfunctioning. Societal dissatisfaction, fear, and fragility are present and exacerbated worldwide. This negative matrix derives sooner than later into resentment, pugnacity, and even fantasy. Although data shows that there are more people leaving poverty, especially in Asia, the global reality is more intricate and dialectic than that. In fact, vast sectors of the citizenry feel neglected, abused, and helpless.
A majority of economists are wrong when they insist, implicitly or explicitly, that people are merely blind to the benefits of globalization and that their actions through vote or force are irrational. A more nuanced perspective that takes into consideration sociological and psychological aspects is needed to explain both the Brexit and formation of ISIL. For example, the limits to integration and the potential to disintegration in the EU cannot be examined only with the tools of economics: class tensions, institutional stalemate, xenophobic propensity, and political corrosion are part of deeper and larger processes and dynamics. Likewise, the persistent bloodshed and recurrent instability in the Middle East are not new features. The place of force in local politics, the lack of a single powerful state, and Western involvement and power politics in the region have been customary.
In this context it is important to introduce the concept of a regressive arcadia. It shouldn’t be confused with utopia: an imaginary and remote place in the future where an ideal of perfection in government, laws, and social conditions will prevail. Nor does it refer to a dystopia: another imaginary place where people are unhappy, alienated, and usually afraid because they are not treated fairly. Arcadia must be located in its poetic sense: a place in the past where splendor, simplicity, and harmony reign. Regressive implies a move backwards, to a time believed to be recoverable and where tensions dissipate completely: cohesion, communal life, and collective well-being are thought to be the rule here. Thus, a regressive arcadia is a defense mechanism that can lead to radicalism and even extremism.
In that sense, both Brexit and the Caliphate are regressive arcadias. Essentially, British voters faced two narratives. Proponents of leaving the EU insisted on the illusion of a return to the historical national greatness. They appealed to those aggrieved and alarmed by the economic and demographic changes of the last three decades. They blamed a dysfunctional political system characterized by the decline of the traditional parties and wide public cynicism towards politicians. A vision of imperial splendor and a reclaimed sovereign pointed to the passion, anxiety, and expectation of many Brits. Proponents of staying in the EU stressed the many evils that the UK would live if it renounced European integration and highlighted few benefits if it continued to belong. The Remain alternative was not particularly encouraging: there was never a clear and promising vision of the future. Not even regions like East Yorkshire and Northern Lincolnshire, that are highly connected by trade with the European Union, supported the status quo. The Leave vote in these areas was around 65 percent. In the end, the British decided to extricate themselves from the European Union. Without a hopeful prospect for the future, a vote in favor of a return to an imagined arcadia wasn’t so surprising.
The Arab Muslim world is the epicenter of a series of dramas and traumas where internal oppression, exclusion, and external manipulation and aggression have become a regular trait. The succession of frustrations from North Africa to the Middle East — for nationalists and Marxists, reformists and moderates, secular and modernizing forces — has been eloquent. Grand pan-Arab projects from the 1960s to the 1980s undertaken by Gamal Abdel Nasser in Egypt, Saddam Hussein in Iraq, and Muammar Gaddafi in Libya were defeated. With a different ideal and on a more national scale, the Arab Spring was an opportunity for the people to push for liberalization and democratization. But its ultimate failure, in most countries, only reaffirmed a state of exasperation, pessimism and powerlessness among the masses. In this context, Al Qaeda first, and now ISIL, has sought to recreate the Caliphate.
The first Sunni Umayyad Caliphate (661-750) with its capital at Damascus, followed by the Sunni Abbasid Caliphate that lasted until 1258, was the Muslim Golden Age. Several centuries after that grand Muslim era, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is attempting to reestablish that glorious past. Ignoring the sentiments of the vast majority of Muslims and resorting to violence, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant is searching for its own regressive arcadia. For them, it’s as if going back to that Muslim Golden Age is the only antidote to a dark, chaotic, and unpromising present.
Thus, Brexit and the formation of the Caliphate—notwithstanding their significant dissimilarities–are both products of an idyllic restoration of a lost order, of a pleasant community, and a glorious dignity. The means to get there are obviously quite different—referendum in one case and terror in the other—but their underlying, anxious outcry for a regressive arcadia is strikingly similar.

I found the bakery. You knew that, despite my town being atypically French, there had to be a proper boulangerie somewhere. And, indeed, I found it. And, indeed, today I ate entire baguette all by myself. I mean, I disguised it as being a reasonable part of my meals, but still, when we tally the score it’s baguette:1 me:0.
You know I loved it. You know as soon as I caught sight of that little misplaced shop, with its red and black exterior and its big glass windows all full of charm, sitting, rather conspicuously on the side of the city’s main round-about, that I was all in. It’s like a big beer in an Irish pub. Or the innocent suggestions of a trip somewhere exotic. I’m a sucker for it. I know whatever comes on the other end is going to be happy happy. I know ‘yes’ is probably the answer. I’m so predictable sometimes.
So I ventured over today in between my first meetings and waited in line. The place was bustling and there was a steady stream of clients. I’m not sure if this was because of my arrival at noon or simply that it’s the only real bakery in town. Nonetheless, they were doing a swift business and I had to let a gentleman go ahead of me because I couldn’t decide what I wanted.
I wanted everything and couldn’t decide how I could possibly justify buying an entire tart, three types of éclairs, croissants, pains au chocolat, bread and pizzas all at one time. I thought about it (you know I did) and decided on just the baguette and an éclair. I even waited to eat the éclair until I got home. When did I get so socially conscious? Weird. Must be a fluke.
The women working the front were pleasant and charming. And when I asked them if they were the only bakery in town, the one quipped, “we’re the best in town!” To which I responded, “Mais bien sur, c’est evident!” –well of course, that’s obvious!
It is, I think, very important to butter up the bread ladies. (pun not intended, but I’ll take it).
And boy, was their bread good. The éclair, too. I’m pretty sure it was all made in-house. I could smell the bready yeastiness wafting through the air. I love that smell. Thank goodness I finally found it within walking distance. I’m sure I’ll be back.
And the angels sang, AAHHHHAAA at the discovery of bakery! It ALWAYS makes you happy ;^) Should you have been a baker by profession?
*Squee*! Neufchatel cheese! (The real kind... not the lowfat American cream cheese). Neufchatel is definitely in my top 11 cheeses... and not solely because it's heart-shaped.
Ahhhhh, the mention of pains au chocolat brought back wonderful memories and a drooling mouth!!!

If, like me, you spend a lot of time at trade, industry, and business networking events, you’ve probably accumulated a thick stack of business cards and a robust number of LinkedIn contacts. Or maybe you’re one of those people who can instantly turn any chance encounter into an opportunity to engage in a conversation that leads to sharing professional pursuits (an almost uniquely American phenomenon, I’m told).
Either way, it becomes extremely difficult to maintain a meaningful dialogue with every single person in your Rolodex. Very few people who don’t have the staff to handle such matters have that kind of time.
Of all those names and faces that populate our professional lives, most — including many that have all the hallmarks of becoming valuable, long-term relationships – end up lost in the multitude. As the number of our contacts grows over time, the prospect of taking action on each promising introduction becomes more and more daunting.
What can be done to change the dynamic? How do you turn the networking game from one of accumulating as many business cards as possible to one that results in a higher percentage of solid, mutually beneficial contacts?
Networking takes time and effort; it takes a willingness to ask, “What can I do to help you?” It also takes commitment to actually following through on the answer to this question. And it takes the ability to make quick calculations about which of the people you meet are worth your valuable time and attention.
For me, it is often a simple matter of deciding if I like you. That may sound ruthless, but I don’t have time to suffer fools — and neither do you.
There are far too many people out there who will gladly take whatever you have to give without a genuine thought of returning the favor. Would you prefer to strike up a relationship with that guy, or would you rather accumulate a network of people who make your day enjoyable? Me too.
So, when I’m awkwardly hanging out by the coffee urn, or sticking my hand out to introduce myself just as you’ve put a forkful of salad into your mouth, how you respond is going to tell me a lot — maybe all I need to know.
If you laugh (appropriately) at my opening line, we’re off to a good start. If you nod and grunt out an “uh-huh” while scrolling through your iPhone, or if you immediately start looking past me for a better prospect, you’re wasting my time. I don’t want to invest in anyone whose body language tells me that they think I’m beneath them.
On the other hand, if you treat me with simple grace and human dignity, there’s a good chance I’ll knock down a wall for you one day. Maybe not the next day, but as the relationship develops and we both earn the right, that day will come.
Networking does not come naturally to me, and so I’ve developed a few ways to overcome my tendency toward introversion. I set appointments for myself to follow-up with people and get updates on how a certain thing we previously discussed is working out, or I extend an invitation for coffee or cocktails. Maybe I’ve read an article that I can share. If there’s chemistry, eventually those prompts will not be needed and the relationship will grow on its own.
I don’t carry a bag. I don’t have a quota, but I know that good things happen in business when our relationships go beyond the superficial. And if all that comes of this approach is you’ve made more friends, well, that’s not a bad result.

Rose de Mai is a feminine perfume by Fragonard.
There is one review of Rose de Mai.
A simple and sweet rose soliflore. A bit watery. The rose dries out pretty fast and then it just becomes a simple white flowers (mostly a plain muguet) with a wee bit of vanilla in the base. OK, not great, not awful. I don't recommend it to hard-core rose lovers.
There are no member images of Rose de Mai yet. Why not be the first?

Arthashastra, a treatise on Economic Administration was written by Chanakya (Kauṭilya, Vishnugupta) in the 4th century BC. It consists of 15 chapter, 380 Shlokas and 4968 Sutras. In all probability, this treatise is the first ever book written on Practice of Management. It is essentially on the art of governance and has an instructional tone.
Chanakya (Great Indian Political Guru, Strategist and Writer, 350 BC-283 BC) was an Guru(Teacher), adviser and a prime minister to the first Maurya Emperor Chandragupta (340-293 BC), and architect of his rise to power. Chanakya was a professor at Taxila (or Takshashila) University and is widely believed to be founder of the first Indian empire. Chanakya can easily be reckoned as one of the wisest Gurus of political and economics sciences that has lived on our planet.
Chanakaya has written Arthashastra, as a guide for “those who govern”. Chanakya was interested in establishment and operation of the governance machinery through which the king(governing head) preserves the integrity and solidarity of the State and generates power.
It is not surprising that several concepts described in ArthaShastra, vividly described by Chanakya in his work, are being acknowledged into present day management theories.
For instance the present day management emphasis the importance of vision, mission and motivation, which was captured in Arthashastra.
Chanakya advise his king to rule through Prabhu Shakti (vision/belief), Mantra Shakti (mission/rules and law) and Utsah Shakti (motivation/inspiration).
- "Adaptability" = Making ecomomic model that will adapt to changes in the future.
- Prosper : Continually adapt to changing environment and govern dynamically.
Chanakya states that for efficient running of the State, elaborate systems need to be established. He emphasizes on the organizational aspects, human dimensions of an organization as well as the leadership requirement of an organization.
On the organizational aspects, Chanakya evolves an elaborate hierarchy under the king. The king appoints Amatya, the Prime Minister. Amatya operates the day-to-day machinery of the State through a council of officials consisting of Mantris, the Ministers, Senapati, the warlord or the Defence Minister, Purohit, the Chief Justice and Yuvaraj, the Heir Apparent or identified successor to the throne. Chanakya weaves a design of a tall hierarchy for governance going down to the level of village through his concept of Mandalas. Gram Panchayats and Panchayati Raj set up that was adopted by the Government of India can be considered as a logical derivative of Chanakya’s attempt to bring administration to the lowest appropriate level in the machinery of State.
It is indeed interesting to note that Chanakya, having woven an elaborate organization, moves to set up policies and procedures i.e. business processes. Arthashashtra has detailed policies for the society, individual industries, labor and employment, calamities and control of vices. At this stage, he shows the depth of his knowledge of the major element of effective and efficient implementation of business processes, namely, the human aspect of management. He observes that the State(Rajaya/Kingdom), as an organization, is a social organization with economic aim. Chanakya at this stage, reminds his Emperor that sound knowledge of complex human nature is essential in effective, efficient and honest running of the State machinery. He warns of two undesirable attitudes of human nature, Pramada, meaning mindlessness/intoxication/insanity due to excess and Alasya, meaning inactivity, to be watched for and avoided. This is where, according to Chanakya, the leadership counts.
The essence of leadership, he stresses, lies in its acceptance by the subjects. He therefore, advises the Emperor never to forget the two pillars of the art of governance: Nyaya, the justice and Dharma, the ethics. He also decries autocratic behavior as a leader is visible and people follow the leader. Hence he advises the Emperor to introspect to identify his aatma doshas, i.e. self deficiencies, to improve or develop himself. He further advises his Emperor to study deficiencies of his cabinet members and take steps to improve upon them. He states that Mantris could be incompetent, Senapati could be over ambitious, Purohit may not consider the present day practices or traditions while enacting laws or justice, which might lead to injustice. As regards Yuvaraj, he advises specific training to prepare him for the eventual succession. He states that the Yuvaraj(future king) should be trained in three specific areas: Arthashastra (economic administration), Nitishastra (foreign affairs) and Dandaniti (political science).
Chanakya seems to have given a lot of thought to human resource development for the government machinery. He is specific about the qualities Mantris(ministers) must possess. He writes about these qualities as qualifying standards for appointment as a Mantri(minister). These qualities are: Drudhachitta (power of concentration), Shilavan (character), Pragna (thinking capability), Vangmi (communication skills) and Daksha (observation / vigilance). In addition, he highlights the competencies that a Mantri must possess. These competencies are the same as the competencies advocated by the management gurus of the present times, namely, Knowledge, Skills and Attitude.
Chanakya’s knowledge about human behavior is really astounding. He advises his Emperor about six emotional devils which he should avoid and ensure that his cabinet members also avoid. He makes it amply clear that times six emotional devils do not allow appropriate decision making in any operation. The emotional devils identified by Chanakya are: Kama (lust), Krodha (anger), Lobha (greed), Mana (vanity), Mada (haughtiness) and Harsh (overjoy).
Having looked at the key areas of an efficient and effective organization, Chanakya looks at external realities that the government machinery would face. He starts systematically studying what he calls ‘the essentials’ of an organized State. He identifies the essentials as the territory of the kingdom, the population of the kingdom, the organization through which the kingdom is being run and last but not the least, the unity within the kingdom. According to Chanakya, the essentials of the State should be taken care of through ‘constituents of the State’ identified by him. These constituents are: Emperor (King), Amatya (Prime Minister), Janapada (populated territory), Durga (fort), Kosha (treasury), Bala (force / army) and Mitra (ally). His choice of Mitra as a constituent of the State is interesting. He thinks of a network of allies to fortify a kingdom. Mitra is a king who would come to the support of Emperor, if Emperor’s kingdom is attacked by another king. It will also be the duty of the Emperor to extend all help if the Mitra is attacked by another king. In today’s world of globalization, the same concept is applied when corporates form alliances to fortify their territories from external dangers such as cheap imports and the entry of strong competitors.
At this stage, Chanakya refers to diplomacy as an important element in Nitishastra (foreign affairs). His clarity of thought is evident from the identification off six attributes of diplomacy. The attributes he talks about are: Intelligence, Memory, Cleverness of Speech, Knowledge of Politics, Morals and Readiness to Provide resources. Though he is not shy of launching an attack as an external strategy, he also advises the use of diplomacy as a useful strategy to be explored showing his pragmatic approach to the external realities. He identifies the external threats as the superiority of strengths of other kingdoms as well as ambitions of other kingdoms.
The advice Chanakya provides to handle a strong king who has evil designs as well as a weak king who has catapulted easily. To defeat designs of a strong king, Chanakya advise networking with other kings defeated or threatened by the strong king on one hand and develop nuisance value through ‘nibbling by the sides’. He also advocates the concept of Upeksha, the studied indifference, in the face of strength as a diplomatic move. To a weak king who easily catapults or surrenders, Chanakya advise his Emperor to give the king his dignity and not to rub his nose in the defeat. This way, he suggests, Emperor will have a useful friend who will never forget the treatment received and will remain ever so grateful.
Finally, from the point of view of management of the kingdom, Chanakya’s advice to his Emperor is indeed introspective and valid to the corporate world of the 21st century.
Emperor should run a diversified economy actively, efficiently, profitably and prudently.
Diversified economy should consist of productive forests, water reservoirs, mines, productive activities, trade, markets, roads, ports, and storage.
Efficient management means setting up of realistic targets and meeting targets without using over zealous methods.
Wealth lies in economic activities. Proper direction and guidance from Emperor will ensure current prosperity and future gains. Inactivity of Emperor in economic sphere will bring the kingdom close to destruction.
Emperor must bear in his mind that a king with depleted treasury is a weak king and the easiest target for a take over.
Emperor should ensure enactment of prudent policies. Prudence should be based on Dharma(Righteousness/Ethical Conduct) and Nyaya(Justice) that will ensure equal opportunity for all to earn a decent living.
Profitability should not only mean surplus over costs. It should also mean provision of investment for future growth.
Availability of water is important. It is practical to acquire a small tract of land with flowing water than a large tract that is dry and would need substantial investment to generate water.
An ideal Emperor is the one who has the highest qualities of leadership, intellect, energy and personal attributes.
Emperor can reign only with the help of others. He should appoint not more than four advisers and sufficient number of Mantris to look after the governance of the State machinery. While limiting the span of control for the Emperor, Chanakya warns against centralization of power in the hands of the Emperor by stating “one wheel alone does not move a chariot”.
Emperor should take proper care in appointing advisers. He should have clarity in terms of qualities an adviser should possess. Most important being practical experience, thinking prowess, sound judgement and ability to differ while keeping total devotion to the Emperor.
Throughout Arthashstra, Chanakya makes some really thought-provoking observations. I list them below as Pearls of wisdom from Arthashastra.
Small difference in ability can lead to enormous differences in results.
Main aim throughout one’s career is to identify, acquire and develop these differences, which yield superior results.
Knowledge is important. Knowledge is cumulative. Once it exists, it grows. Every new piece of knowledge reveals connections with other areas of knowledge. Each breakthrough in knowledge creates new opportunities that expand and multiply.
Thinking is creative. You can create your world by the way you think. Situation and people have the meaning you give them. When you change your thinking, you change your life. To take control of your life, you must take control of your mind.
By failing to plan, you are planning to fail. Every effective performance is based on thorough preparation.
You should be firm about your goal, but flexible about the process of reaching the goal.
A great leader shows ability to make decision and act boldly in the face of setbacks and adversity.
Power goes to the person who uses it most effectively.
Leaders are sensitive to and are aware of the needs, feelings and motivation of those they lead.
Foundation of leadership consists of honesty, truthfulness and straight dealing.
Leaders develop ability to predict and anticipate the future.
Self-discipline is the most important personal quality of a leader.
Most important basis of success in any venture is pragmatism. Do not ask where the new idea came from or who thought of it first. Ask only one question: does it work?
There are certain basic universal laws. They do not change. Ignorance of these laws is no excuse. Violation of these laws forces one to pay full penalty through underachievement, frustration and failure.
Success needs action. Action needs initiative.
For sustaining success, initiative to collect feedback is important. Feedback allows you to take corrective action, which sustains success.
For every effect, there is a specific cause. Success is not an accident. Success is not based on chance. Success is not a matter of luck. Success is the result of well thought out action.
Punishment when awarded with due consideration, makes the people devoted to righteousness and to works productive of wealth and enjoyment.
We should always speak what would please the man of whom we expect a favour,like the hunter who sings sweetly when he desires to shoot a deer.
We should not feel pride in our charity, austerity,valor,scriptural knowledge, modesty and morality for the world is full of the rarest gems.
When there are many enemies, treaty should be entered into with one.
One's security should be guarded from the enemy.
The weak should seek refuge in the strong.
Refuge in the weak results in sorrow.
A ruler should be approached like fire.
When two persons quarrel, one should maintain an attitude of duplicity.
The lust ridden cannot perform his task.
A little effort accomplishes the task.
We should not fret for what is past, nor should we be anxious about the future, men of discerment deal only with the present moment.
Never share your secrets with anybody. It will destroy it.
As soon as the fear approaches near, attach and destroy it.
The state is the root of wealth.
Humility is the root of sense control.
Worship of elders is the root of humility.
Wisdom results from the worship of elders.
The prosperous one becomes the victorious one.
Economic prosperity creates prosperity for the people.
If the people are prosperous even a leaderless state can be governed.
To be without a master is better than having an arrogant master.
After equipping oneself fully, one should seek an ally.
Defection to the enemy takes place due to negligence.
Ministerial advice should be kept secret from all quarters.Getting what has not been got, guarding it, developing it and then distributing it-these four constitute state policy.
Friendship and enmity results from some cause.
Power is the cause of alliances.
One should not fight with a superior or equal.
A task in which an expedient is used is not difficult to achieve.
One of the precepts of life is that unlike types do not unite. Unheated metal cannot combine with heated metal. Similarly, a person who is fired with ambition and the desire to achieve would not be able to function properly with one who is passive and lacks the drive to do much in life. It should always be remembered that when establishing a force, a team or an army, the leaders would always look for people with similar temperaments or backgrounds. This would ensure that there would be least disparity, conflict and everyone be able to exist in harmony with one another.
While there is no doubt about the fact that each individuals has his own unique qualities, there is also, the fact that in a team, if everyone is starkly different from each other, the result would be chaos and discord, Hence, to ensure balance and co-operation, similar attributes should be tapped to form successful and high achieving teams, thereby strengthening the belief that unheated metal does not coalesce with metal.
2. An unbaked vessel on colliding with another unbaked vessel gets destroyed.
When two equally unprepared and unsuitable opponents clash with each other, both would be destroyed in the ensuing battle. It is essential that out of the two parties, at least one should be prepared well and able to take on the other.
The saying that an unbaked vessel on colliding with another unbaked vessel gets destroyed holds true in every situation. Battles have been fought since time immemorial; however, if these battles weren't between a superior and an unequal, they wouldn't have been successful.
Even when competing against each other, if the competitors are not prepared for the competition, it would make little sense for them to participate. One should always be prepared properly before entering into any kind of rivalry or fight with another.
3. One should not wear provocative clothes.
If one does not want to be the recipient of unwanted and undesirable attention, one should take care to dress in a sober and conservative manner. "Clothes makes a man." This saying has great truth in it. A man is known by the kind of clothes he wears and therefore, should take care in dressing with sensibility and modesty. Fashion may be followed but not at the cost of offending the sensibilities of other members of society. By wearing provocative clothes, one attracts unnecessary attention and incurs problems of various sorts. Both men and women must practice prudence while selecting their attire and conveying an impression of tradition and purity.
Clothes carry an immense significance in man's life and therefore, should be worn intelligently. It is, indeed, possible for one to be stylish yet sensible. One can wear any kind of clothes as long as they are not offensive for others.
Since man is an integral unit of society, he does need to pay heed to what would be appreciated by his society. He should place his tastes, preferences and comfort first, yet he should not ignore the norms and modes of his society as well. All in all, he should be able to make a distinction and use his attire to impress and not to offend.
4. Advancement and decay are dependent on oneself.
Whether one progresses or declines in life is largely dependent upon one's own self. No one is responsible for your success or failure and if people blame fate, destiny or other people, they are merely being escapists. One should be graceful enough to accept one's success and failure alike as one's own doing. Life presents us with a variety of opportunities. It is in our hands to make use of these chances and take the most out of them.
5. One addicted to gambling does not accomplish anything.
The habit of gambling has been known as the worst habit since ancient times. Rulers have lost their kingdoms due to gambling. It is the one habit which would most certainly take its addict to ruin and despair.
6. One addicted to vices does not accomplish task.
An individual who is addicted to bad habits-smoking, drinking, drugs, gambling, would not be able to achieve his goals and targets. He would waste away his time, energy and resources in satiating these habits and wouldn't be in a position to move ahead in life. He would leave work undone and not take on anything new and challenging. It is essential that one stay away from all vices and lead a life of hard work and virtue so as to achieve all of one's goals and reach a worthy position.
7. One should not imitate the ways of God.
Man is man and can never be God. Therefore, he should not try and copy the ways of God. Man should not try to become the maker or destroyer of people's lives and destinies. He should always keep utmost faith in the power of the Almighty and never should he try to don the mantle of being all-powerful omnipotent.
There is a supreme power above us all and this is the power that governs the earth, the universe and all the beings, therein.
8. The strong one tries to get what has not been attained.
A person who is not scared of failure, hardship and suffering would have the physical and mental strength to endure all circumstances and achieve one's goal, no matter how difficult it may seem.
9. One who is affectionate in difficulties is the friend. In the acquisition of allies one develops strength.
One who would stand by us during our times of distress and difficulty. One who would see us through the good and the bad times is surely one who is a true friend and not a fair weather one. Such a friend is to be cherished and honored. He deserved our love and loyalty.
10. One wheel does not move.
Man needs other beings in order to survive, to work, to prosper. He cannot function in isolation. In every situation that man faces he needs the help and guidance from others. We need them so that we can continue to exist as normal, successful, social human beings.
11. With wisdom one can prosper.
The secret of prosperity lies not in how much of money does a person have but in how wise and intelligent is he. What eventually determines the fortune of a person is how much sense he shows in making his fortune work for him. One should, therefore, strive to acquire as much knowledge and education as possible from diverse spheres and by interacting with people from all walks of life, and apply all that one learns to one's own life and experiences and it would soon, be seen that it become easy to achieve targets and goals. Needless to say that when this happens, prosperity automatically would be your companion and fortune would smile upon you always.
12. Victory over senses is the root of states.
How would one attain an ideal state of mind? The answer is simply by attaining control over one's senses. The five main senses of man rule and define his existence on this Earth and in this World. How and what he sees, hears, tastes, feels and touches define his state of mind. If he sees pleasing and happy sights, his state of mind would be one of peace and contentment. If he sees the opposite, he would feel the opposite.

We present in this paper the USSI (Ultrasonic System for Structure Investigation) program in order to determinate the acoustic parameters in the austenitic welded joint. We have determinated the velocity and the ultrasonic attenuation using the pulse - echo method in direct contact and immersion techniques for different frequencies. We analyzed two samples of the steel 1646 and 1680. The measurements are made in different points of the same samples and the acoustic parameters values determined by USSI program are compares with those obtained with conventional A - scan method.
Keywords: material characterization, acoustic parameters, USSI program, A - scan, austenitic samples.
The use of automatic interpretation techniques serves first of all the increase in the velocity of the data interpretation, however, very important goals are also the increase in the reability and reproductibility of the examination. Also, in some situation, computer system can help to interpret complex data because they are capable of analyzing more data simultaneously than it can be done by an operator. Ultrasonic spectroscopy is a method for testing materials with relatively low acoustic attenuation by exciting the sample under test into mechanical resonance. By progressively sweeping the frequency of a driving transducer across a range and recording the amplitude and time of flight of a receiving transducer one can build up a spectrum of the sample under examination. A spectrum therefore contains information about the sample that is of interest for the purpose of inspecting it, the challenges of the technique are to sample the spectrum accurately and to interpret it correctly.
The experiment has been made on two welded samples of austenitic steel types 1646 and 1680.
Their chemical composition is given in Table 1, where one can notice that the two samples show close chemical composition.
Due to the small dimensions of the samples, the acoustic parameters measurements have been made only on a few points on both perpendicular directions with the requirement that a measurement point to be on the welded joint. The points where the measurements have been made are showed for sample 1680 in Figure 1 and for sample 1646 in Figure 2.For illustration, in the case of sample 1646, points1 through 4 are on the upper surface of the sample (a'b'c'd') while points 5 through 9 are located on the lateral surface (a b b'a' ).For sample 1646 the measurement point located on the weld is 7, while for 1680 there are two such points, 3 and 6. The differences between the number of measurement points are due to the different shapes of the two samples.At each of the measurement points the ultrasonic attenuation and velocity were measured by the pulse-echo technique in both direct contact (A-scan ) and immersion (USSI ) at frequencies of 4 MHz and 10 MHz .We note that for the immersion method ,when the USSI program is used ,due to restrictions imposed by the experimental setup, measurements are performed for only part of these points.
which represents the expression of the attenuation coefficient a(f) in Rayleigh scattering domain.This relation is valid in the approximation of small grain sizes compared to the wavelenght of the signal, which is the case for our samples.
The experimental results obtained on sample 1646 concerning the acoustic parameters (ultrasonic attenuation and the velocity ) are displayed in 3D in Figure 4 for both A-scan (direct contact) (Fig. 4a) and USSI program (immersion method) (Fig. 4b). The ultrasonic attenuation determined by the A-scan method has a variation with position ,with a peak at the joint (point7) for both frequencies but more striking at 10 MHz. Note ,that when using the direct contact the propagation velocities depend on the scan plan (a'a b b') or (a'd'c'b') for 4MHz and are independent for 10MHz. In the immersion method ,using the USSI program (Fig. 4b), the ultrasonic attenuation is no longer qualitatively similar for the two frequencies; there is a peak in the attenuation at point 2 for 4MHz and 10 Mhz. In this case, velocities are a little different for the two used frequences but there is a good corelation between the same measurement points.Note that through the immersion method the values of velocities are bigger and more precise .
For this sample ,the ultrasonic attenuation and velocity are displayed in 3D in Fig. 5 for both the A-scan (Fig. 5a) and the USSI methods (Fig. 5b). In this case, both methods give qualitatively similar attenuation and velocity profiles at both frequencies.The ultrasonic attenuation determined with the A-scan method has a local maximum at point 3 ,where the weld is located and minimum at point 4.The global maximum is located at point 6 ,where the weld is viewed from the lateral surface.When using A-scan method the values of velocities are different after the two scan plane at 4MHz but are the same for 10 MHz.In the case of USSI program, the attenuation and velocity have similar overall behaviour at the two working frequencies.The acoustic parameters have a maximum at the joint (point 3 ) and a sharp decrease at point 4 ,corresponding to the thickness of the sample.The USSi program (immersion techique ) shows a little variation in velocity values being independent on the used frequency.
A complet vizualization of acoustic parameters in real time through the USSI program for sample 1680 at the frequency of 4 MHz ,in immersion at point 3(on the weld) is displayed on Figure 6. After representing successive echoes in RF, the frequency domain response is reached through FFT with a window of spectral analysis of attenuation, after which the experimental results are being displaying by comparison the theoretical curve of equation (1).
Fig 6: Front panel of the USSI program.
At the same time ,the visualization from Figure 6 presents the determined velocity values from the ultrasonic instrument SONIC 136- ULTRA and the USSI program (based on the attenuation values at the peak frequency and at the lowest frequency in the spectrum ). There are also displayed the corecctions in the attenuation above mentioned.Comparing the ultrasonic attenuation for the two samples we note that for the sample 1680 the values of the attenuation are consistently larger. Based on optical metallography studies we found that the average grain size for the two samples are different, being larger for 1680.Consequently, we propose that the larger attenuation is due to the larger average grain size ,which probably determines increased scattering losses.We also note that, comparing the two methods for the ultrasonic measurements, the A-scan and USSI (immersion technique), some of the variations of the ultrasonic parameters observed in the later case may be due to the fact the propagation of ultrasounds in water is nonlinear . The errors introduced by the nonlinear propagation in water are seen in the values of the attenuation, velocity, and the reflection coefficient at the water-air interface.It was estimated that the errors in the ultrasonic attenuation could be up to 0.3dB/mm at low frequencies, while at small amplitudes and short distances of propagation the errors are negligible. The advantage of the USSI method is that it allows to take into account these errors, which are estimated and then used to corect the final result.
different values of velocity and attenuation after the scan plane for the two samples show that the sample structure isn't homogene being possible to appreciate grains size and orientation (1680sample present a more dense structure and the big grain size).
metallographical analyse confirms experimental results about acoustic parameters for the two studied samples.
The USSI program presents the advantage of a limitation of the researcher intervention and interpretation and of a bigger amount of information display by comparison with A-scan method. Due to the complete and immediate visualization of the successive echoes in the time domain we came to the conclusion that USSI program facilitate the display and determination on of the acoustic parameters in real time. The use of automatic interpretation techniques increases the velocity of the data interpretation, the reability and reproductibily of the measuraments. Also, computer system can help to interpret complex data because they are capable of analyzing more data simultaneously.

We create amazing homes for amazing people from inspirational designs, with unparalleled focus to customer satisfaction.
JP Mauger have built two properties for us and I have to say that through the 18 month build, they were extremely professional, build quality was exceptional and even though the projects were tricky, it was an absolute pleasure to deal with.
They were so passionate about the finished product and I can’t say a bad word about them. If we were to build again, I would have no hesitation in using Tadhg and his team of professionals.
I can honestly say they became our friends through the process and still are.
The service was excellent. I would say their strength is in their communication. They communicated with us the whole way through the contract and I don’t feel it ever got out of control because of this. The team had enormous personal interest in the job and therefore the standard of the project was high as a result. The people employed by JP Mauger are great and it was a lovely project to be involved with. We had no problem in making sure they were the builder of our second property.
We found JP Mauger to be extremely professional and we felt very comfortable dealing with them with all aspects of the build. They held our hand throughout and even after the project was completed, they always have no hesitation to come back if we have any concerns or need extra work completed.
The team is very dependable; you can call on them anytime. Their workmanship is fantastic but what we liked most about working with them was how they took complete control, quickly finding solutions to any problems that arose and taking the worry out of the build.
JP Mauger provided us with a very good level of service. The staff are friendly and the team is very hands-on and proactive when it comes to coming up with new ideas. If you ever need to speak to them, they’re always available.
The results are excellent, we’re very pleased. In fact, we’re still going back to JP Mauger two years on for additional projects.
JP Mauger provided a very good service. The team are very loyal and interested in their jobs. We had a particularly good foreman working on our site.
There are always one or two issues that come up when working on these jobs but the team handled them well and I would recommend JP Mauger to anyone.
The team are always a pleasure to work with, both on a personal and a professional level. They are organised, diligent and always keen to provide the best solution and the best quality that can be achieved in the circumstances.
Importantly they are also considerate to their clients and work hard to develop a trusting and dependable relationship in this respect.
We look forward to continuing to work with them.
At JP Mauger we pride ourselves on the quality of our team. From management to site staff we ensure that everyone is customer focussed and embodies our core values.

The IκB kinase-β (IKKβ or IKK-2) inhibitor IMD-0354 inhibited nuclear translocation of NF-κB induced by TNF-α; this attenuated myocardial reperfusion injury and preserved cardiac function after myocardial infarction. TNF-α-induced production of interleukin-1β and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 was reduced significantly by IMD-0354. IMD-0354 restrained proliferation of mast cells with c-kit mutations and suppressed the growth of human breast cancer cells by arresting cell cycle at the G0-G1 phase and inducing apoptosis. May effectively prevent restenosis.

It could happen that a yogi is placed in a class from a waitlist, without the yogi being in the possession of a valid class pass. When signing the yogi up for the waitlist, Momoyoga always checks if they have a valid class pass. However, once a yogi a has been placed in a class from the waitlist, it could happen that the current class pass isn't valid anymore or doesn't have any credits left.
If that does happen, the yogi will still be signed up for the class but without a connected class pass. Momoyoga then sends a notification message to the studio, so the studio can take action. For example, by asking the yogi to purchase a new class pass.
When the yogi purchases a new class pass, you can remove the yogi from the class as an admin or teacher and add them to the class directly. This way, the yogi will be marked as paid on the class page.
In case a yogi is unexpectedly added to multiple classes and doesn't have enough credit, the yogi will still be added to all classes, possibly without having paid. The yoga studio will then receive a notification email about this immediately. Next, the yoga studio can take action.

Senior European Union officials have reportedly confided to the UK press that they see the Labour Party's vision for the United Kingdom's exit from the European Union as "unworkable," describing it as "cakeism" and accusing the Party of wanting to pick and choose which European institutions it continues to remain a member of.
The officials reportedly took greatest issue with Labour's stance towards the Single Market which, under a Corbyn-led government Britain would either leave or seek to negotiate a new relationship along the lines of that existing between the EU and Norway which would retain full access for the UK but place curbs on immigration and the flow of capital.
A putative future Labour government would reportedly keep Britain in the European Customs Union however, meaning that the UK would continue to be a part of and would negotiate its international trade deals along with the remaining 27 EU member states rather than striking its own independent relationships.
Like the Conservatives however, the Labour Party has committed itself to restricting the free movement of people between Europe and Britain, violating one of the "four freedoms" which Brussels insists are non-negotiable for membership of its institutions.
Mr. Corbyn, widely seen as a Eurosceptic, has had to balance between his support for the result of the June 2016 Brexit referendum and the majority of his MPs who backed the Remain campaign and have already attempted to remove him for not campaigning vigorously enough to maintain Britain's EU membership.

This is how you lose deals.
Selling when there is no compelling need: You are not going to win a deal when no deal is possible because your prospective client has no compelling need.
Skipping stages of the sales process: Skipping stages of the sales process means not taking the actions you know are necessary to win.
Failing to control the sales process: Much of the time your buyer’s process doesn’t serve you. Agreeing to that process ensures you lose.
Failing to gain the commitments you need: By failing to get the commitments that you know you need you endanger your deal and increase the odds of a loss.
Failing to create value for your prospect during sales calls: It’s difficult to gain a commitment that moves an opportunity forward if you haven’t done the work to deserve that commitment. You do that by creating value for your dream client in every interaction.
Focusing on low levels of value in your solution: Unless you’re calling on an end-user, the lower levels of value in the features and benefits of your product are not compelling enough to get you a win.
Failing to elevate the discovery conversation to strategic: Without identifying the strategic outcomes worth pursuing, you make a “no” more likely.
Not developing a compelling case for change: The most difficult sale you make is the compelling case for change. Without a compelling case for change, you lose, or you get a no decision.
Transactional behaviors: Transactional behaviors are behaviors that make your prospective client feel as if all you were trying to do is get a quick close. There’s no focus on value creation. Unless what you sell should be sold transactionally, this will kill your deal.
Choosing to communicate using lesser mediums: The most important conversations you have should be held using the best and most effective medium. This is NOT an email. And it will cost you an opportunity.
Being self-oriented: The more that your prospective client feels that your motive is about your commission check, the more likely you are to lose that deal.
Failing to identify the buying committee: In small sales, you may be dealing with a single decision-maker. But in larger, more complex business-to-business sales, that is unlikely. If you don’t identify the stakeholders and understand their needs, you end up with a big L.
Failing to build consensus: One of the easiest ways to lose an opportunity is to fail to create consensus within the stakeholders that will eventually vote on whether or not to choose you and your solution.
Not tailoring the value to individual stakeholders: It isn’t easy to give each stakeholder what they need in a solution, but without customizing the value to the different stakeholders you are unlikely to gain their support. This often results in a loss.
Selling without a conversation about money and budget: At some point, you have to talk about the money. You have to be willing to talk about the investment your prospective client needs to make to get the results they want.
Focusing on price: Believe it or not, you can lose opportunities because you are so focused on price when you should be focused on creating value in a solution.
Solving the wrong problem: If the customer tells you exactly what they need to address the problem, and you present something different without having gained agreement that that was the right answer, you lose. You need to solve the right problem to win.
Presenting poorly: “Show me that picture of your corporate office and the image of your executive management team.” Said no one, ever.
Allowing the customer to believe price and cost are the same thing: Your dream client thinks price and cost are the same thing unless and until you do something about it.
Failing to justify the delta between your price and your competitor’s price: Your price is higher for a reason. If you can’t explain that reason, you don’t deserve to win.
Failing to provide the necessary proof: If your dream client needs you to provide evidence of what you have said and what you promised, you need to provide it. Otherwise, it’s a loss.
Trying to match your competitor’s price or strategy: If your competitor has a lower price, that may be their strategy, but it isn’t yours. You have to play your game, not theirs.
Poor deal strategy: If you haven’t tested the ideas that you believe make up your strategy with a red team, you aren’t anticipating how you might lose. Without toughening up your deals, you risk a loss.
Correct these and you’ll win so much you might get sick of winning. But I doubt it.

Team Training Command (TTC) Kaduna, have emerged the overall winner of the 8th Nigerian Air Force Games 2016 that just ended in Katsina, with 50 medals comprising of 21 gold, 15 silver and 14 bronze medals.
The one-week sporting event, tagged “Katsina 2016” with the theme “Sports: A Vital Tool for Professionalism in the NAF” aimed at promoting physical fitness and comradeship among NAF personnel. The annual Games, featured a total of 13 sports competitions, while about 670 personnel drawn from all air force formations across the country participated.
The Training Command team, that premised their fantastic performance on hard work, focus and determination, was spectacular in long jump, basketball, badminton, wrestling, golf, swimming and athletics especially 4×400 relay, 100 metres and 200 metres.
Speaking at the medal presentation and award ceremony for the gallant athletes held at Oluseyi Petirin Hall, NAF base Kaduna, the Air Officer Commanding (AOC), TTC, Air Vice Marshal Nurudeen Abiodun Balogun described the victory at the NAF games as a result of long time sleepless and patriotic efforts that eventually paid off.
He further stressed that mastering the skills and techniques in sports could be likened to mastering weaponry which is essential to every military personnel, especially in the face of current security challenge the country is faced with.
He said the trainings, both in sports and weaponry remain important ingredient to the quality of officers produced by the command, believing that, with adequate support from all stakeholders, the gallant Air Force Men and women can always strive to do better.
According to him, “I’m very exited that our gallant athletes have do us proud in the 8th edition of NAF games 2016 held in Katsina. This is a proof that we are not just good at securing the Nigerian Air space, we are also good at sporting activities.
“Sports is an integral part of any force man or woman. In it, one is able to be at alert in every of his her engagement hence, the need to pay proper attention to competitions where a lot can also be learnt and apply to our daily living.
“We are here to rejoice and celebrate together as winning team. We will continue to strengthen sporting activities here from here, we are producing athletes for Olympics and its just normal to enhance their capacity to enable them continuously do the country proud.
Earlier, the Leader of TTC, Group Captain Michael Ekwueme, told the gathering that their victory was as result of hard training and opportunity given to them by the command, quickly added that more still needed to be don.
He attributed their outstanding performance to hardworking, persistence, focus, strength and seasoned coaches.
He however expressed appreciation to AOC and coaches for their unwavering support for the athletes to achieve greatness in the competition.

Transmission: Automatic Color:Gray Interior Color: Black Average Vehicle Review: (5 reviews) The worst thing about this car is saying you drive a hyundaI. Very sporty and hard when you want it to be and comfortable and quiet in the normal times. Interior is pretty sharp, its a plastic playground in there but don't get me wrong it's a very cool interior. Definitely need to get the track version with the brembos.
Transmission: Automatic Color:White Interior Color: Black Average Vehicle Review: (5 reviews) This car was 3 yrs old when I purchased it so I paid about 1/2 of MSRP if it were new. I got the 5.0 R-spec model with the V8 engine and 8 speeds. WOW! The car feels solid when you enter and close the door. It has all the bells and whistles you'd expect in a luxury sports sedan - 19" wheels, heated/cooled leather seats, read sunshade, etc. It is FAST!! Straight line acceleration is terrific and it will take the curves of American highways and side roads as good as any other vehicle on the road. I'm getting close to 20 mpg on average. And the kicker is I fill up with 87 gas!!! You can't beat that with a stick!!! My car is black with cashmere leather and I'm constantly turning heads. Hands down, this is the best car I have ever owned,!
Best sports drive value around. Period.

"In terms of the number of people I have tried and jailed, maybe I would give you the statistics in my subsequent outings. We have tried more Nigerians. More Nigerians have been jailed within this period after passing through due process. And I used to tell people, even if I try 10 million Nigerians and Jail 5 million Nigerians for corruption, that does not solve the corruption problem.
So for you to solve corruption problems, you must use modern technologies to prevent people from stealing and that is what we are working on. The oil industry is a good area; we are working very hard. I just don’t want to say certain things, because some of these people have been given so much money, they would do everything to stop us. But I promise you that if you vote me and I come back to serve this country for the next four years, the day I would leave here, the next person that would come as the president of this country, people would not talk about corruption, because we are working on technologies and we would use technologies to block all these areas. Today we are talking about IT; we are no longer in the analog generation, so we must deploy IT to solve our human problems and I am promising that in the next four years, the next president, nobody would harass that president for not fighting corruption because I will solve the problem of corruption in this country"

You’re probably wondering if National Hairball Awareness Day is a joke. As funny as it may seem, hairballs are really quite misunderstood and often a preventable irritation for cats. This misunderstanding can go both ways, as well. While cat owners generally ensure proper pet health with good nutrition and cat insurance, it’s important to make sure kitty is as healthy as possible– especially when it comes to the dreaded hairball.
To one end, vomiting can be mistaken for—and even shrugged off as—”just hairballs,” when in fact the cat may need medical attention. Conversely, hairballs can be mistaken for vomiting and the opportunity to improve a cat’s grooming routine may be missed.
Hairballs can usually be identified by their long, smooth appearance. They are caused when a cat grooms with their scratchy tongue, made up of hundreds of tiny barbs specifically designed to remove excess hair. Spring often brings an increase in hairballs when cats begin to shed their extra winter coat.
One effective tool for removing excess hair before the cat does is the Furminator, which gently removes more hair than a brush or comb.
Another method for hairballs is lubrication using a petroleum jelly-based gel called Laxatone. The gel is often flavored, and many cats readily lick it off a finger or spoon. The lubricant assists the hair through the cat’s digestive system.
According to Stone’s column, hairballs are usually harmless unless the cat is dehydrated. Dehydration can cause any blockage to become dry and stuck. Because blockage is dangerous for cats, pet insurance can assist in treatment in case of an emergency.
With proper pet health care, frequent vomiting and hairballs should not be an all-too-common occurrence.

I have discussed so many times why I can’t stand Cult Wines from Australia like Mollydooker because they are so over the top laden with alcohol that they are not enjoyable to drink. 16.5% Alcohol is maybe acceptable for an Amarone but not for a Syrah or Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot. As a Certified Sommelier, I can never give up on wines from anywhere in the world and am constantly tasting. It’s been about 10 years for me but I finally stumbled upon one from Australia that is elegant, rich, silky and well made and most importantly as usual AFFORDABLE.
It was once customary for a small group of zealous Barossa pioneers to regularly seek the cellar retreat of an old vineyard cottage. Within the cool stone depths of this hidden refuge,they used to waste away hours playing cards and drinking wine. Now a lingering part of Barossa history, the crumbling remains of this cottage still stand amidst old vines that constantly produce this excellent Shiraz that always, “comes up trumps.” 100% Shiraz.
I just stumbled upon this 94 point rated wine by James Halliday who specializes in reviewing Aussie Wines. The first thing I noticed when I looked at the bottle was it was 14% Alcohol. From BAROSSA???? They usually all are hot, hot, hot wines with way too much alcohol. Beautiful dark purple color in the glass with aromas of fresh berries and plums. On the palate this was silky and rich and explosion of blackberry fruits with notes of dark chocolate the tannins were soft and refined. Retail on the bottle is about $20 if you can find it and in a Restaurant at under $50. Yes under $50 in a Restaurant for an AMAZING handcrafted wine!!!
So in the Card Game of WINE. The Dealer Might Hand Me A Mollydooker Carnival Of Love …I FOLD!!! Two Hands Bad Impersonator Or Samantha’s Garden, I FOLD….2009 Charles Cimicky Barossa Valley Syrah/Shrias… I am All In Cause Every Once In a While With An Australian Wine You Can COME UP TRUMPS!!

Once you've gathered the materials, it's time to draw your dragon's head on a plain sheet of 8x10 paper. You may use green, orange, red or purple paper instead of white if desired. Cut the outline of the dragon's head out and make two small eye holes at the proper eye placement. Use colored markers to add details to the dragon's face. When the artwork is complete, simply glue your dragon mask onto the popsicle stick for an easy and quick dragon handheld mask.
Pair your mask with a velour robe and waist sash in the same color of the mask for an even easier solution to how to make a dragon costume at home. While inexpensive, this quick costume idea is all you'll need for an on-the-go child with an active imagination and penchant for fairy tales.
If you have sewing skills, then by all means use them to create a unique dragon costume. Most pattern companies offer a dragon costume in their Halloween or Fairy Tale collections. If you need to modify a similar type of suit, make sure you still opt for a fabric or color that works best for a dragon. Jewel tones and luxe velour and plush fabrics make appropriate choices for dragon suits. Since a dragon is a somewhat novel costume idea, be sure to shop patterns early to avoid lack of availability.
If you'd rather purchase an adult dragon costume rather than get crafty at home, be prepared to spend some serious cash. Dragon costumes are rare and costly thanks to their detailing and rich fabrics.
If you must have a store-bought costume, scope out the sale collections at a costume rental shop for the most unique and highest quality choices at a bargain price. While dragon costumes are not in high demand, if you opt for a permanent investment, chances are good you'll find several occasions to wear it.
Dragon costumes for children are readily available during the Halloween season and are priced within the same ballpark as most children's costumes. Check eBay for even better deals and options.
A dragon costume is a unique idea that hasn't been overdone throughout the years. If you're still on the fence about creating your own dragon look and going solo, then consider the unique pairings this costume idea makes. For a group theme, pair the dragon with a princess and a prince; or, set sail with Jackie Paper, a wooden toy sailboat and dress as Puff the Magic Dragon. Since dragons are universally loved, you're sure to turn heads with a costume depicting the fiery and mythical creature no matter if it's a quick pulled together costume or an intricately sewn masterpiece.

As one of the champions of Croatian tourism, Rovinj is a city where one can discover both historical magnificence and natural splendor. Of course, the accommodation has to follow the level. Residence Rovinj&, a hotel opened in 2017, is more than ready to provide. Located in Stjepan Radic Street, this attractive locality is very close to city’s busy center and cozy beaches, but distant enough to spare its guests from crowds.
Modern and of inviting nature, Rovinj& was planned by Zeljko Mohorovic of Metrocubo design studio. Trying to distance himself from what he called ‘naval colors’, he imagined a cozy interior that tenders contemporary approach and urban atmosphere.
Book your stay on pleasant Istrian shores by visiting official website of Hotel Residence Rovinj&. Your unique vacation on Croatian coast is literally just a few clicks away. If you have already visited this Croatian destination, don’t forget to share your impressions in our comments section.

“When my kid left home? Well, there is a story … I couldn’t wait. As simple and as harsh as that. I simply could not wait. If she hadn’t packed her bags herself, I would have done it for her. It was time, time, time she went. I near as damn it had a chart stuck to my bedroom wall ticking off the sleeps.
She knew this too, it was time.
This person who set my soul on fire, who I had lived and breathed for over 21 years, was off on a university placement overseas. That cold morning in March, I kissed her goodbye, told her to look after herself and that I am unconditionally here for her, and I love her, waved her good bye, and watched the taxi disappear. As it happened, I was starting a new job that very same day, so putting her in a taxi was not the most important thing about my day.
I walked back to the house, feeling elated, peaceful, happy, and wracked with guilt. Later, walking back into the house that night, after my first day at my new workplace, and knowing she wasn’t there, enveloped me in peace and contentment. Six years of toxicity shed itself in seconds.
So when I read tales of heartbreak and tears as our most precious things find their wings, it doesn’t resonate with me. It must surely depend on what your relationship was like in the months, or years leading up to them leaving? For me, what went so wrong? Who knows… Allowing myself to be a doormat? Not knowing the power of the word no, or not using it enough? And when I did, my god, did I hear about it.
Six years of general lack of respect, care and consideration.
Albeit peppered with episodes of apology, and ‘I don’t know why I do it Mum’, which after a while became as genuine as a dog feeling bad for stealing a sausage. Suffice to say, I was tired. And so was she. And she knew it. But the years leading up to her departure are for another story. This is about how it was when this kid of mine finally left home.
When she arrived in her new sunny and hot overseas destination, she rang in tears. The apartment wasn’t nice, she didn’t know what to do. I resisted telling her she didn’t have to stay – I told her to crack on, be the strong independent person I had always encouraged her to be, and it will work out.
Ten months later, I miss her, it makes me cry. We speak regularly, she told me she feels all her toxins have left her, she can see clearly and feels balanced and happy. My heart beats with pride, and I want to shout from the roof tops how amazing she is.
Thanks for sharing your experience, others can do so here too.

After encountering the 'device full' error another two times today, on two separate non-modchipped PSPs, we did some more investigation, and have now finally understood exactly what causes it.
It seems that if you have a memory stick with corrupted data on it, then it can give the 8001001C error mentioned in the previous article, when you try to run the downgrader. Fixing the corrupted data fixed the problem.
The moral of this story is that it is best to run any downgrader on a totally clean memory stick - format the stick on your PSP before loading on the necessary files. And if you are having problems running the downgrader, try using a disk corruption fixer (like ChkDsk or the disk repair tools in Windows) on the memory stick, as it may fix it.
While we're on the subject of the downgrader, and HEN - we are not currently working on a version that does not require GTA. It's not currently possible.

Airbnb’s popularity is rocketing among travelers looking for accommodations that are less expensive than conventional hotels or have something unique to offer. It’s also proving to be a surprisingly profitable venture for homeowners with extra space to rent.
Landing a job where you can effectively work from home is a great perk to have. For some people, laying on the couch and working is the ideal way to work on any day of the week. If you are like other people, you may want to have a well-established home office to work out of.
Good marketing can mean the difference between a quick sale and a home that lingers on the market. There are a lot of different ways to make a home more appealing, but there are a few that stand out for being particularly easy and effective for most sellers.
Technology and real estate are often compatible. It would not be farfetched to expect that real estate technology will develop into a healthy growth sector. Three Real Estate Tech Phases become clearer as the technological revolution continues.
Many people want to do what they can to increase the value of their homes. After all, a home is a big investment, and homeowners might hope that they can make a nice profit off of their homes if they sell them one day.
