De La Salle–College of Saint Benilde Manila is one of the top institutions in the country for its The School of Hotel, Restaurant and Institution Management. What many do not know however, is that it also has its own four-star hotel: Hotel Benilde Maison De La Salle.
Hotel Benilde Maison De La Salle is located in Arellano Avenue, Corner Estrada St, Malate, Manila, Metro Manila.
Although it is a big building with many floors, the hotel area only occupies the 1st, 11th, 12th and roof deck. The rest is dedicated for labs.
All rooms are equipped with an advance proximity card door lock system, electronic doorbell, DO not disturb (DND) and make-up room indicator. For added security, the proximity card is also required for elevator use.
As you can see the room is very nice. The queen size bed comes with a soft duvet bed linen, two super soft pillows and two extra pillows. There is an extra loft which is even softer than the bed. The carpeted floors are clean. There are multiple lamps with appropriate switches. There is even a minimal night light which I really appreciate.
There's a work desk with lamp, telephone, tea and coffee with electric kettle. For laptop use and gadget charging, their electric socket is compatible for 110v and 220v so no need for adapters.
I find the TV as an important aspect of a hotel stay. I like turning it on just for a more comfortable vibe especially when I'm alone so it doesn't feel too quiet. The 40-inch LED TV gives a superb viewing experience.
There's a fridge, more than adequate drawers, a huge closet with an electronic safe and iron with ironing board and hangers.
The bathroom is also spacious. I found the sliding door with mirror to be innovative and functional.
The towel rack has a complete set of hand, face and body towels for two.
There is also a complete set of toiletries.
One of the best hotel facility you can avail is the swimming pool at the roof deck. It has a scenic view of the sun set and Makati City.
Also located at the roof deck is Vatel Restaurant - a French restaurant run by students. This is required by Institut Vatel since it has a tie up with De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde School of Hotel, Restaurant and Institution Management.
At Cafe Romancon located at the ground floor of Hotel Benilde Maison De La Salle is where you can claim your welcome drinks and the sumptuous complimentary breakfast buffet. It also provides a free daily news paper so I did my morning routine of reading the newspaper after breakfast.
Although choices are limited, they are filling and satisfying. There's the usual Filipino breakfast fare like hotdog, other items including a soup dish, fresh fruits, pastries and cheese.
Cereal lovers especially kids will be delighted with their cereal selection.
I was also able to check out the other rooms available. Out of the hotel's 49 rooms, there is only one Presidential Suite.
Aside from the spacious bed room and walk-in closet with dresser, it has a huge bath tub.
The special feature of this room is the glass-walled bathroom. Don't worry, there are blinds if you prefer privacy.
Apart from the Presidential Suite and Dormitory area, the room sizes are standardized at 30 sqm. Only the beds varied.
There are also two rooms allocated for Persons with Disabilities (PWDs).
One thing I found unique is the dormitory. For as low as 1,500, dorm guests can enjoy in this bed with work space and also avail of the complimentary breakfast. This is the female dormitory. I found the male dormitory to be a bit spacious. To avail, it requires a minimum of 8.
For this 64 sqm. room specially made for groups there's a twin toilet and shower area.

The benefits of a well-balanced diet on health are well known. Public awareness is higher than ever, with much written and spoken about the positive effects of vegetarianism, veganism, organic and superfoods, the ketogenic diet, and so on. However, the climate dimension of food is less well understood: what we eat both affects and is affected by the climate.
Several studies – including by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) – have highlighted the impact of climate change on food production and prices. This affects food availability, affordability and consumption – and ultimately human health. Recent studies have expanded these analyses to include repercussions on micronutrients like zinc and protein, including in legumes and vegetables.
It is estimated that by 2050 elevated carbon dioxide (CO2) could cause an additional 175 million people to be zinc deficient and an extra 122 million people to be protein deficient. There are other effects to consider too. For example, climate-induced deficits in food production could lead to more international food trade, in turn generating more greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the transport and logistics sectors.
The climate cost of food is well documented. Agriculture and land-use systems are responsible for up to 30 per cent of anthropogenic GHG emissions and about 70 per cent of freshwater use. The sector produces the largest share of non-CO2 emissions, including methane and nitrous oxide from livestock, manure management, fertiliser use, rice cultivation and agricultural soils. But it also accounts for CO2 emissions through the burning of crop residues and savannah, for instance, as well as processes such as shipping.
While emissions occur throughout the different stages of the food chain – production, transportation, processing, preparation and storage – the intensity varies across the stages depending on the part of the world. In developing countries, like India, emissions mostly happen at the food production stage. In most developed countries that have a high affinity for processed food, emissions can be attributed mostly to the ancillary stages.
Animal-based foods are major contributors to these problems. Meat production, mainly beef, contributes most to GHG emissions. More specifically, enteric fermentation – where livestock produce methane during digestion and belching – accounts for the largest source of GHG emissions from the agriculture sector. The carbon footprint of a Big Mac cheeseburger stacks up at 4 kg of CO2 equivalent (CO2e) gases, which in turn translates to nearly two litres of petrol. Producing 1 kg of turkey meat is equivalent to 10.9 kg of CO2e. When considering all the GHG emissions caused by a food product, ruminant meat has the biggest carbon footprint, followed by seafood, eggs, poultry and plant-based food.
Against this backdrop, is it prudent to divide dietary choices into the classical binary of vegetarianism versus non-vegetarianism, ascribing planet-saving potential to one over the other? The situation is more complex than we think. A number of recent studies point towards the positive environmental consequence of a dietary shift to vegetarianism. Researchers from Oxford University recently estimated that a global shift to vegetarianism by 2050 would lead to a drop of GHG emissions by about 60 per cent. Lowering meat consumption would also mean that more land becomes available for farming, and that there is less of a need for expensive climate mitigation.
However, we must look at the spectrum of impacts of a dietary shift to vegetarianism. Such a shift would have significant impacts on the food web as a whole, as food chains are interlinked and often interdependent. It would also affect the wider ecological cycle.
The full environmental cost across the entire food value chain also needs to be explored. For example, half of humanity consumes rice. The IPCC suggests that agriculture is responsible for approximately 50 per cent of global methane emissions, with rice accounting for 11 per cent. It takes approximately 3,000 litres of water to produce just 1 kg of rice. Then there are the additional environmental costs associated with producing fertilisers, processing the rice, marketing, and so on.
So if we are to make the farming of crop-based food products sustainable and less damaging to the environment, farming techniques must change. Rice farming, for instance, could use the ‘alternate wetting and drying’ technique. This reduces the amount of time rice fields are flooded, lowering the production of methane by about 60 per cent.
In addition, we must consider whether a sudden shift to plant-based diets is feasible from a socio-economic point of view. A completely plant-based diet would lead to very different outcomes in developed and developing parts of the world. While the environmental and health benefits in developed countries may be more pronounced, in developing countries such a shift may in fact exacerbate poverty. Millions of people are dependent on animal farming as a sole means of livelihood, especially when you consider that a third of the world’s land is semi-arid or arid rangeland.
So, can we cut GHG emissions by simply changing dietary patterns? The research suggests that it is certainly possible to reduce emissions through shifting to locally produced fresh food, moderating meat and dairy consumption, consuming more vegetable protein, shifting from ruminants to poultry, and so on. But all of this will count for little if we continue to produce food that causes very high emissions.
What, then, are the most important recommendations to infuse sustainability into food production and consumption, and reduce its climate cost? First, moderation is key. Global studies have found that limiting meat intake and simply adhering to the World Health Organization’s dietary recommendations would bring down emissions – by as much as 17 per cent in developed countries such as the UK.
Reducing food waste is another solution with colossal significance. Every year 1.3 metric gigatons (1.3 billion tonnes) of edible food goes to waste, according to a 2017 study from the University of California. Nearly 6.7 per cent of all global GHGs come from food waste, according to the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization. Addressing this issue, therefore, holds immense potential in dealing with the climate cost of food.
More fundamentally, we need to move towards climate-smart agriculture (CSA). CSA is an approach that aims to increase agricultural productivity sustainably; support equitable increases in farm incomes, food security and development; adapt and build resilience of agricultural and food security systems to climate change at multiple levels; and reduce GHG emissions from agriculture wherever possible.
Precision farming is one CSA practice. It involves a more precise application of essential nutrients like nitrogen on crops, which significantly lowers emissions and runoffs without affecting yield. Precision farming also adheres to the principles of conservation agriculture. As well as encouraging efficient use of water and nutrients, conservation agriculture promotes diversification of plant species, soil conservation and enhancement of natural biological processes. Greening the way we power our farms through solar energy is also a promising way to mitigate emissions while boosting farm incomes.
And we need participatory evaluation platforms for making informed choices on sustainable agricultural practices. The climate-smart village approach of the CGIAR research programme on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security is one such platform that transforms villages and landscapes into sites for testing technological and institutional options. These villages generate evidence of the effectiveness of CSA in a real-life setting. Above all, we need the constant convergence of science, policies and politics to usher in sustainability in the global food system.

One of the most common questions we receive at Just Us Books is “how do I get my book published?” We created this tip sheet to provide general guidance to aspiring book creators.
1. Do your research. If you have general questions about the publishing process, submitting artwork or a manuscript, there are a wealth of Internet resources that provide helpful information. Acquaint yourself with the publishing industry before you contact a company.
2. Know the publisher’s market. Study a publisher’s list and be prepared to substantiate the strength of your manuscript in a cover letter. Be able to provide good reasons why children would want to read your book, why teachers would want to use it and why parents would want to buy it. Have you pre-tested the material with children? Is the language fresh, lively, active and non-stereotypical? Is it age appropriate?
3. Get the publisher’s guidelines (typically available on their web site) before you send your query and follow them. Some publishers do not accept queries via e-mail, and most don’t accept any communication via fax or phone. Some publishers require you have an agent, while others allow aspiring writers to submit to the submissions editor without agent representation.
4. Always include a query letter, which should include a brief summary of your manuscript. Do not send your complete manuscript unsolicited (unless the publisher’s guidelines state you may do so).
5. Include a self-addressed stamped envelope (SASE) for the publisher’s response. Keep in mind that many publishers only reply if they are interested in your manuscript AND/OR if you provide a SASE. Editors may receive dozens and dozens of inquiries on a daily or weekly basis and may not have time to answer queries individually.
6. Edit your work. Although this may seem like an obvious point, many aspiring writers send cover letters and manuscripts that contain typos and other grammatical errors. Such errors will gain you quick rejection.
7. Be patient. Producing a book takes time. If an editor does express interest in your manuscript, the publishing process may take several years from the editor’s initial “yes.” Keep honing your craft and read plenty of books while you wait.
8. Remember publishing is a process, not an event. An average 32-page full color picture book is a financial investment for a publisher. Upfront costs including editing, illustration, design, printing, shipping, author & illustrator advances, and marketing must all be paid before any books actually reach stores or are sold to the public.

Broiling is one of the fastest, simplest methods commonly used for cooking beef flank steaks and short ribs. The broiling process intensifies the natural flavor of the meat without drying it out, which is especially important for these cuts of meat, as they tend to dry out very easily when overcooked. For this reason, check beef flank steaks and short ribs regularly when they are in the broiler to avoid tough and chewy meat.
Remove the flank steak from the refrigerator 30 minutes before you want to cook it. Cover the flank steak with plastic wrap.
Line a heavy broiler pan with aluminum foil.
Rub the flank steaks with vegetable oil to lightly coat the meat all over. Season the steaks to taste on both sides with coarse kosher salt and coarse ground black pepper.
Place the flank steaks on the lined broiler pan and put the broiler pan in the broiler about 6 inches from the heat source.
Broil the flank steaks for 3 minutes on each side for rare meat, 4 minutes on each side for medium rare and 5 minutes for medium. Avoid cooking flank steak past the medium point, as it will become tough and chewy.
Remove the flank steaks from the broiler and allow them to rest at room temperature for 5 minutes before slicing or serving them.
Season the short ribs with coarse kosher salt and coarse ground black pepper to taste.
Place the short ribs in a large stockpot and add enough cold water to fully cover them.
Bring the water to a boil and reduce the heat to low. Simmer the short ribs for 60 minutes.
Preheat the broiler to 500 degrees F. Meanwhile, line a heavy broiler pan with aluminum foil.
Brush the short ribs with vegetable oil to taste. Place the short ribs on the broiler pan meat side up. Broil the short ribs about 6 inches away from the heat source for 10 minutes. Remove the short ribs from the broiler and allow them to sit for 5 minutes before serving them.

I’ll probably need a whole category for these as the process of updating the GPL begins to gather steam. It began with an article in internetnews.com reporting a conversation with Mike Olson of Sleepycat Software. Mike told internetnews.com that the Free Software Foundation was still thinking about the problem posed when someone modifies GPL’d web services software and goes into business providing competing services using the modified software, but without releasing the modifications to the community. Mike was right; that’s an issue FSF expects to address in GPLv3. Richard Stallman and I have both talked about it publicly.
But internetnews.com understood Mike to be saying that GPLv3 might somehow apply in a new way to the modifications made by companies that customize GPL’d software for their own use but never distribute to anybody else. This was confusing enough, and plainly wrong. We wouldn’t do that. But then someone went even further and posted to Slashdot suggesting that a future GPL might require users of free software, such as Amazon or Google, to pay fees simply for using GPL’d code.
Some Slashdot readers thought this last contribution was FUD or intentional flamebait. I hope it was just a silly but innocent error. Either way, the rumor was nonsense by itself, and I wouldn’t normally write in response to a nonsensical rumor. But the occasion gives me a chance to say something about reading GPLv3 news in general.
All future versions of the GPL will fully protect the freedoms that the Free Software Foundation defined decades ago, and which we believe all software users everywhere should be guaranteed. Freedom zero, the freedom to use software, is infringed if you are required to pay fees or make promises in order to use software, anywhere, anytime. FSF will never publish a license that violates freedom zero. Similarly, freedom two, the freedom to modify a program, and freedom three, the freedom to share, are violated if private modification is prohibited or sharing is required rather than permitted. You can always modify free software for your own use, and decide whether to share it with other people. If you share with others, the GPL says now and always will say that you have to give them the same freedoms you were given by others who contributed to the code you are using, modifying and redistributing.
FSF has promised the free software community generally, and the contributors to FSF-sponsored software projects in particular, that future versions of the GPL will conserve the spirit of the original license and protect the freedoms for which FSF stands. If you read a report claiming that FSF is considering license terms incompatible with the fundamental freedoms laid out in the preamble to the current GPL, you know it isn’t so.

Does anybody have any definitive information on the way Welsh Medium education is funded visavis EM?
I understand that the Assembly makes no distinction when allocating money to the LEAs, apart from a grant of about £20 pa for the extra cost of Welsh language materials.
What happens once the money gets to the LAs is a bit mysterious, and I would be very grateful if someone could explain it to me.

The same state — and party — sent Rep. Collin Peterson and Rep-elect Ilhan Omar to Congress. What does that mean for Democrats’ agenda?
Rep.-elect Ilhan Omar speaking to attendees of the DFL Election Night party in St. Paul last Tuesday.
Here are a few of the people Minnesotans voted to send to Congress next year: a Muslim-American woman and Somali refugee who is a national left-wing icon, an arch-conservative rural Minnesotan who ran on being a “reinforcement” for President Donald Trump in D.C., and a millionaire entrepreneur who detests political labels and vowed to join a caucus of centrists if elected.
Voters across the country made at least one thing clear in this year’s midterm elections: that a majority of them are ready for Democratic control of the U.S. House of Representatives after two years of the Trump administration and eight years of Republican control of the chamber. But the candidates who Americans selected to populate the new Democratic majority — which will number at least 227 members to Republicans’ 198 — are hardly all the same kind of Democrat.
In the next Congress, Democratic leadership must work to reconcile an upstart, progressive vanguard of the party, embodied by candidates like Ilhan Omar in Minnesota’s 5th District and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in New York City, with a big group of centrists, like Dean Phillips in Minnesota’s 3rd District, who won in suburban and Republican-leaning districts this year by adopting a compromise-oriented tone on hot-button issues.
The House Republican contingent these Democrats are eager to work with, meanwhile, saw close to 20 of its more moderate members go down in defeat on Tuesday. The new GOP minority — likely to be led by Rep. Kevin McCarthy, a staunch Trump loyalist — will be more conservative and even more aligned with the president than before. Two of its brand-new members, Jim Hagedorn of the 1st Congressional District and Pete Stauber of the 8th, embraced the president throughout the entire 2018 campaign.
Minnesota’s new (and returning) congressional Democrats and Republicans expressed optimism after the election that they can work together on issues like infrastructure and helping the state’s substantial agriculture sector. But Democrats’ plans to tackle progressive priorities like expanding Medicare — not to mention a general eagerness to put their new oversight authority to work to investigate the president — combined with Republicans’ loyalty to Trump could make partisan warfare the order of the 116th Congress.
The five people who will make up the Democratic contingent of Minnesota’s House delegation next year illustrate the ideological, geographic, ethnic and gender diversity of the new Democratic majority. That diversity is a boon for the party, which argues it is more reflective of the American people as a whole than the GOP. But it will also present challenges for Democratic leaders as they transition into governing mode after spending eight years in the House minority.
With the moves of Reps. Tim Walz and Keith Ellison to statewide office in Minnesota, and Rep. Rick Nolan’s retirement, Reps. Collin Peterson and Betty McCollum will be the only sitting Minnesota Democrats to return to D.C. next year. Both are poised to play important roles: Peterson, the most conservative Democrat in the House, is expected to return to the chairmanship of the Agriculture Committee that he gave up in 2010; McCollum, a reliable liberal vote, will help to set federal spending levels for Department of Interior programs on the powerful Appropriations Committee.
State Rep. Ilhan Omar, who was elected to succeed Ellison in Minnesota’s most Democratic-leaning district, ran on an unabashedly progressive platform that favors single-payer health care or “Medicare-for-All,” abolishing the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, and access to debt-free college education. She is poised to be one of the most left-wing members of the House next year, and will enter as one of the first two Muslim women ever elected to Congress.
Throughout the campaign, Dean Phillips, center, eschewed partisan labels and made a point of his outreach to Republicans.
Phillips, who defeated 10-year incumbent Rep. Erik Paulsen in the 3rd District, does not support Medicare-for-All and did not make progressive policy a centerpiece of his campaign. Instead, he focused on issues of campaign finance reform and ethical government, something that public polling indicates is a priority for both Democrats and Republicans nationwide — and something that helped him win over many voters in this affluent, suburban district that Hillary Clinton carried in 2016, but preferred Paulsen and other Republican candidates in the past.
In the 2nd District, which includes suburbs and rural areas south of the Twin Cities, Democrat Angie Craig, a former medical device company executive, defeated freshman Rep. Jason Lewis by five points after losing to him in the 2016 election. That year, Craig ran a progressive-oriented campaign that sought to link Lewis to Trump — a strategy that backfired in a district that ultimately preferred both of them.
Democratic leadership, in particular likely speaker-to-be Nancy Pelosi, must now manage a larger, more fractious flock where internal divisions can make the difference between a key bill’s passage or failure — something that Republicans demonstrated regularly over the last eight years in the majority.
Democrats must also navigate different priorities regarding the president: while nearly all members-to-be welcome increased oversight of his administration, a Washington Post poll showed that two-thirds of voters in key districts who cast ballots for Democrats want the party to begin impeachment of Trump. But new members of the new suburban segment of the Democratic conference, like Craig and Phillips, were very cautious on that subject in 2018 and are unlikely to arrive on Capitol Hill champing at the bit on impeachment.
Norm Ornstein, a congressional scholar at the American Enterprise Institute think tank, predicted that Democrats will overcome internal divisions on policy and political strategy.
According to Neil Sroka, spokesman for the progressive group Democracy for America, the “moderates” joining Congress next year are generally supportive of progressive measures — and the party grassroots is expecting prompt movement on those items. “We’re looking at the most progressive ‘centrists’ that were elected, certainly within the last several decades,” he said, adding that 65 percent of Democratic candidates ran on Medicare-for-All or a Medicare buy-in option.
Sroka said activists are expecting the Democratic majority to hold Trump accountable — using the power of the Ways and Means Committee, for example, to compel the release of Trump’s tax returns — but to also to lay out a vision for America that would serve as reason to elect a Democrat for president in 2020.
An expanded Democratic group taking power on Capitol Hill means that diminished group of Republicans will return next year: the GOP lost at least 34 seats due to incumbent losses or failing to win open seats vacated by retiring Republicans. On election night, the party lost first-termers like Jason Lewis but also some of their most senior lawmakers, like Rep. Pete Sessions of Texas, the chairman of the House Rules Committee.
Beyond that, Democrats will be replacing retiring Republicans like Pennsylvania Rep. Charlie Dent and Florida Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, both widely known on Capitol Hill for dealmaking with the other party.
The faces of the new GOP House minority are people like Hagedorn and Stauber, two out of three Republican candidates in the country who managed to flip a Democratic-held House seat. Hagedorn won a tight race over Democrat Dan Feehan by less than half a percentage point in his southern Minnesota district; Stauber defeated Democrat Joe Radinovich by five points in northeastern Minnesota’s CD8.
On election night, the Republican Party lost first-termers like Jason Lewis, above, but also some of their most senior lawmakers, like Rep. Pete Sessions of Texas, the chairman of the House Rules Committee.
Both districts went for Trump in 2016 by about 15 points, and the president held rallies in each one during this campaign season to stump for Hagedorn and Stauber. Six of the seven House candidates that Trump personally rallied for ended up winning, according to NPR, as did 19 of the 36 Republicans he endorsed via Twitter.
The GOP minority will be a hotbed of support for the president, said Ornstein, reflecting Trump’s total takeover of the party from moderates like former Sen. David Durenberger and former Rep. Bill Frenzel — or even people like Paulsen, who backed up Trump on key votes but generally avoided him and occasionally pushed back against him.

To me, it means that the Democrats will need someone heading their presidential election ticket who’s somewhere comfortably between Reps. Omar and Peterson. Unless they find someone supremely charismatic, nominating a far-to-the-left candidate will reelect Trump. But I think a ticket like Biden-Harris would work.

Trump will not be reelected and his hard liners will go down with him. The voters who saw the light for this past election will grow in numbers and will be even better organized than they were this year. Republicans are running scared thanks to a more involved voter awareness of climate changes, gun proliferation, health care, minimum wage, compassionate immigration, alternate life styles, et. al.
Submitted by jeremy mohawk on 11/12/2018 - 03:01 pm.
I buy that argument, the party needs to consider moving to a “safer” candidate to pull in the moderates in the middle who can go either way. See MN elections this year and how Trump voters moved to the DFL in many instances. Biden/Harris is a safe ticket – while the base might prefer O’Rourke, and they may be right, he carries more risk going against this President.

Joe Biden will be 78 years old in 2020. That year will also mark the 32nd anniversary of the first time he tried to run for President. He took his seat in the Senate the same year Richard Nixon was sworn in for his second term in office.
I admire and appreciate Biden’s long record of public service. There comes a time, however, when it is best to return to one’s plow.

Many of those who were strong-armed to support the agenda of the leadership were gone within 2-4 years.
This election cycle, the party campaign committee — for the first time in several years — again consulted the Blue Dog caucus. That was a factor in the party’s success.

What I worry about is that the Republicans spent years investigating Hillary Clinton, yet she still won the popular vote for president.
Submitted by Joel Stegner on 11/12/2018 - 06:32 pm.
Democrats talk about the virtue of diversity and their walk matches their talk. Take an issue like minimum wage. Rural communities simply don’t have as much wealth or jobs. Having a uniform minimum wage throughout the country short changes the poor in cities and suburbs and puts lots of pressure on very small employers. If the Democratic representives got together, they would have all the knowledge needed to use employment to sustain more of the expenses of low wage workers, eliminating some of the division that happens with states.
Asking the right amount of sacrifice from employers but not too much shoukd the target, as Democrats really should try to be advocates for small business, as many owners make less than minimum wage given their long hours. Small business allows upward opportunity in a way that big business does not, as in small business, owners live in the same communities as their employees, not in another state or country or a walled enclave.
Submitted by Robert Moffitt on 11/13/2018 - 07:51 am.
It means the voters in two very different congressional districts send two very different looking Democrats to Congress. However, if you look at their voting records in the years to come, you will see they agree on quite a few things.
Stop worrying about “the Democrat’s message.” Let the new House members get to work, and we will see it soon enough.
Submitted by linda higgins on 11/13/2018 - 04:02 pm.
I think you wrote a similar headline in 2006, when Minnesota sent Michele Bachmann and Keith Ellison to Congress.
Submitted by Dave Bender on 11/13/2018 - 05:36 pm.
I think the breadth of the candidate’s positions shows that the Democrat Party is a “Big Tent” party. It’s got room for a wide range of ideas. There’s nothing wrong with that. It gets us away from the polarizing one-position party.

I audio-reviewed this Mr. Wilson offering HERE. For the record, I am on said record as grading it a B+ and shortly afterward wondering why I didn't go "A." To be perfectly clear, and to restate what I have said numerous times elsewhere, I give an A- to A+ grading to any stick I consider a "must try." + is derived from at least one instance of an audible "wow." A is flawlesss. A- can then be seen as imperfect but something special resides therein.
Courtesy of Mr. Brandon K. Wilson.
I do so appreciate your kind sampler, Mr. Wilson -- but what kinda recipe is that, kind sir??? I was gonna make this at home and now, nothing! Harumph, gentlepersons. There is a large part of me, though, which appreciates a tick more info in order to gain another notch more of understanding and hence -- deeper enjoyment. Ah, well. Enjoyment is as enjoyment does. Or something.
Double banded. I have no opinion on this. I'd like to again mention, humsoever, my dislike re: foot bands. Or of paper foot bands, to be exact. I think a foot RIBBON is a lovely thing which enhances the visual as well as tactile endeavor. Double band, though, and to reiterate: meh. The secondary band in question is in keeping with the downtown conservative linear chic of the gold, red, and white main band -- and states "MR. WILSON" in gold on white. Nice bit of branding.
As to the stick itself, the clean lines of its packaging seem somewhat oddly juxtaposed to its roughish-hewn surface. The chisel of the Torpedo is imperfectly wrapped, although upon investigation, it seems cosmetic, only. There is a tick of a blemish, a smallish sunspot looking thing in a couple of tiny places. Overall, a very dark complected espresso bean hue, and fairly evenly so. No real undertones and minimal marbling. Wilson Adams is not only unafraid to furnish quite vein-ridden offerings, but is nice enough to throw the veins in free of charge. As I look at the offering in the sun, a bit of yellow comes to the surface. Tobacco at the foot peeks out at me with a cocoa brownness and same slight yellow under-tone. a few high-light ticks up to blonde. Medium+ density.
Hand-feel is a very fine toothed sandpaper. Balance is a tad awkward on account of ring gauge and being a Torpedo. Nothing egregious. A bit dry. Medium+ at least on the Charmin test squeeze, and evenly so throughout. I notice there is the slightest touch of a flaring out at the foot.
Very interesting schnoz as I find my umami sense triggered. Somewhat exotic spices. Very woody. Backing of leather barnyard. Quite fruity at the foot; an apple orchard.
I get little tricky with he chisel tip, as I use my Old Timer pocket knife to 'punch' a whole in its side instead of shearing off the tip. What I'm looking for is a directed burst right toward my palate. Cold draw is sweet apple orchard including wood, but also a separate cedar and some dull or muted red and pepper spices. I'm delivered this on a medium+ resistance of a draw -- reminding you again, dear reader, how I cut the stick.
Dry cedar, apple wood, and white pepper are released into the aroma upon toasting the foot. It takes a good bit to toast, on account of its density. First hot draw is very much apple cider. The peppers involved are interesting, a finely ground red pepper laced with a hint of cayenne, and a well-roasted white pepper of a bit more coarseness. Cedar note is quite sweet and clings into a sweet apple cider finish. Here and there, are kitchen spices. A second hot pull is retro-haled and just amplifies nicely, what I already have seen. On a third hot one, comes Raisinettes.
Ash is more pepper than salt and quite more toothy than the wrapper lets on. Burn is a little off, but we shall see, its line is near razor. Where it's lagging is where a bit of seam has risen up. Draw is still at medium+ and pack density holds right up to the burn-line. As I type, the ash is attempting to form a nascent sheath, if not to even.
I'm sticking with a medium but pushing + profile at this early stage. Oy.
Primary notes are the pepper mix and apple orchard to cider on the finish. Secondary notes are Raisinettes. Mouth-feel is a bit of not derived from dairy creaminess. Perhaps the other secondary note of a creamy and spiced cedar. Finish is that cedar and cider and all is carried by a nice earthy and clean backing. Perhaps a trace of golden hay there.
Burn has corrected, as its line thickens to a medium, and smoke out-put is up a tick to a good medium on each end. Foot and room-notes are very much apple orchard with a bit of sun drenched hay. My curiosity satiated, I guillotine off the cap and VOOSH. Pedal to the metal time, gentlepersons.
Kitchen spices are baking spices now and peppers warm and flare on both draw and retro-hale. Apple wood delineates somewhat from the apple, as if the apple was plucked and thrown in a wicker basket. I taste wicker. Wood shaving, if ya will. A new hardwood note, that -- alongside the still plugging along creamy and spiced cedar. Raisinettes lose their raisin and instead of calling the new note "ettes," I shall dub it "chocolate." Of the milk varietal. This milk increases the body to a medium+. Flavors are medium+ as well, and strength lags a tick at medium -- but I know what to expect.
Burn never has reached even, but too never required a re-touch. Line thins to, well, thin. Ash is unchanged and I perhaps forgot to mention more oily than it appears. Smoke pours and aroma is unchanged.
Caramel hits the apple note and enters the cider. Peppers don't subdue a bit but roast and become a kinder thing. Cinamon rears up from the baker's spice. Chocolate becomes a bigger player. The backing remains hard to peg... I get earth and hay intermittently and never together. It's a full-bodied offering now, this Mr. Wilson, but in a refreshing or at least un-cumbersome manner. Not in an abysmal albatross way. A very nice kicking off of an early and lengthy transition in which strength hits medium+ and oils set in from I ain't sure where -- inherent to the tobacco would be my guess.
Burn is now even. Pace quickens a tick. Interestingly, shearing off the cap did not down-tick the draw resistance, as it's a still medium+. I roll off an inch of oily pepper-salt ash of an envious density. As transition ends, malt comes on. Chocolate is now a malt, but also a new wheat malt is apparent and is becoming a new backing. A quite high backing which elevates the already elevated flavors. Full length finish same as prior but with a rather heady maltiness. Apple cider and orchard will not quit. Baker's spices plug along. Peppers do, as well. I am enjoying the lack of black pepper and the use of white and red. Cayenne has hidden a while. Caramel separates from apple at transition's end and toasts into the creamy mouth-feel and lingers to and through finish.
My one gripe is a somewhat lack of dimension, as all notes are seemingly of the primary variety less the mouth-feel and finish. Earth and hay are Gonesville, Daddy-o. Most mysterious of all, Malts kaput without a lick of a warning.
Construction is a near marvel and all notes there are unchanged. A kinder full-profile, I dares ya to find. I am immersed in a summer quilt on a chilly autumn day. As the final act beckons, I sense a return of roasted cayenne on my tongue and notice a crack in the wrapper just ahead of the burn -- it is cosmetic, only. Strength is a less gentlemanly near full. I put a pinch of salt in my smoke-hole.
Some mottling here, which creeps in as is inherent in the character of this stick. Nothing is overt -- all is an allusion to. An interesting manner in which to go about things. That small crack gets smoked through sans event and the ash darkens. A tick up is noticed on the draw and less smoke gives less zetz in the chest. Mellowing. A sweet tobacco comes in and it is sweetened further by a reintroduction of raisin which is rehydrated by oils. A near perfume sensation. Woods subdue and a mulch is the new backing. Chocolate soars. Peppers subdue. Creaminess ups a notch and is sweeter than prior. A cigar which serves its own desert. Softer but no less powerful.
At the band I now get a baked apple vibe. Butter. Construction softens a tick and holds just as well as ever it did. Into the band, out-put of smoky smoke smokens and I begin to think ahead to a toothpick as I recline in my hard wooden kitchen chair on my oddly warm and sunny front porch.
I am vindicated in my original B+ grade, and too, I am fully satiated by this Wilson Adams offering.

Slime mold is a disgusting sounding, but relatively mild “disease” that we’ll see in lawns from time to time.
Spotted spurge is a mat-forming summer annual weed that is common in turfgrass. It survives on dry or sandy, low nutrient soil and on compacted or disturbed sites.

Participants were asked to report pain intensity and to complete the Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire.
Older individuals with vs without chronic low back pain (CLBP) may have lower skeletal muscle mass, according to a study published in Osteoporosis and Sarcopenia.
A total of 100 participants (>65 years; mean age, 74.4 years; 55% women) with CLBP symptoms for ≥3 months and 560 individuals without CLBP (mean age, 73.2 years; 45.7% women) were enrolled between 2011 and 2015 for this prospective study. Participants were asked to report pain intensity using a 0 to 10 visual analog scale (VAS) and to complete the Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RDQ).
Whole-body dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scans were used to measure skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) and body fat percentage, and sarcopenia was defined as a relative SMI >2 standard deviations below the mean SMI for young adults, yielding cutoffs for SMIs of 6.87 kg/m2 and 5.46 kg/m2 for men and women, respectively. Cutoff values for sarcopenic obesity were 28% and 40% body fat for men and women, respectively. Magnetic resonance imaging was used to calculate cross-sectional areas (CSA) of the erector spinae and multifidus paraspinal muscles.
The following characteristics were found to be different between individuals with vs without CLBP: weight (56.4 kg vs 59.2 kg, respectively; P <.05), VAS (6.5 vs 2.8, respectively; P <.01), and RDQ (16.9 vs 12.9, respectively; P =.0425). A total of 189 participants (28.6%) with sarcopenia were identified, a higher percentage of whom had comorbid CLBP vs no CLBP (40% vs 26.6%, respectively; P <.01). Participants with vs without CLBP had a lower mean SMI, as indicated by DEXA scans (P =.0133 for men and P =.0295 for women) and a higher mean body fat ratio (P <.001 for men and P <.0001 for women). Bone mineral density was comparable in both groups. There was significant sarcopenic obesity observed in patients in the CLBP group (P <.05), and the lumbar CSA was lower in both paraspinal muscles in patients with vs without CLBP.
Study limitations include a cross-sectional design and a lack of evaluation of skeletal muscles, including walking speed and grasping force.
“Therapeutic procedures that are used to treat elderly aging muscle, including muscle strengthening and performance training, can possibly be a treatment for or used to prevent elderly CLBP,” suggested the authors.

Homes for the Homeless operates Community Residential Resource Centers (CRRCs) within the shelter infrastructure in an effort to simultaneously serve both homeless families and the surrounding community. Our CRRCs combine the basic services of a traditional shelter with a full range of inclusive programs, such as early childhood education and after-school programming, designed to meet the diverse needs of homeless families residing in the shelter or citizens from surrounding neighborhoods. HFH ensures that a family’s future can begin as soon as they walk through the doors of a Community Residential Resource Center.
Each Center provides access to resources where resident families and surrounding community members can find classrooms, libraries, computer labs, health clinics, playgrounds, and counseling centers. All of these on-site resources make the Centers a place where parents and children can learn and grow as they embark on the path to independence, regardless of their housing status. Mothers drop toddlers off at daycare on their way to work, after-school teachers greet kids as they come home from school, and families bond together at special community events. While students take educational field trips to museums and city landmarks, adults meet with employment and housing specialists who help them prepare for job interviews, learn valuable life skills, and find apartments of their own. On-site New York City Department of Education Liaisons work to ensure that children are enrolled in and attend school. Overall, residents and community members are embraced by a supportive system that encourages individuals and families to grow, achieve, and succeed.

WITH SHOPPING BEING A KEY DRIVER IN ATTRACTING TOURISTS, MOHAMAD AWADALLA, CEO, TIME HOTELS, DESCRIBES WHAT MAKES DUBAI STAND OUT IN THIS REGARD.
TRAVEL TRADE MENA: How was business in 2016?
MOHAMAD AWADALLA: 2016 matched 2015 in figures and even better in certain areas, the mix was more or less the same from the previous year.
We have participated in international trade and initiated contact with new markets; we are always on the lookout for new market feeders to compensate the slow drive of others.
Our guests are mainly GCC based but each property has a different feeder market, and in terms of countries we are looking at GCC as a whole, the UK, China, India, Germany and the Scandinavian region.
We are targeting new markets mainly in Africa, as there is great potential now, with key feeder markets in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda as well as Nigeria.
TRAVEL TRADE MENA: How do TIME Hotels attract guests who place an importanceon culinary and retail experiences?
MOHAMAD AWADALLA: Food and beverage come with an added value at TIME Hotels as we were awarded the Ethos of Slow Food Dubai in 2016.
We serve slow food platters on our daily buffets and within our a la carte menu.
In addition to that, we take good care of offering the guests a range of local produce, not processed or any additives applied to it, to preserve a great taste and good quality.
During Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF) and the 2016 Dubai Summer Surprises (DSS) we offered our in-house guests a great deal of [discounts] when they booked with us.
These vouchers were to be used in prominent shopping malls to make sure that the guest was part of the festival from the moment they booked.
TRAVEL TRADE MENA: Dubai is a well established shopping hotspot and offers a myriad of dining options, what can guests expect when visiting the destination?
MOHAMAD AWADALLA: Well Dubai is a standing jewel in the Middle East with nonstop development projects in every industry. If you are visiting during the cool temperatures, there are a number of attractions you can see.
Starting with Dubai Glow Garden, Dubai Miracle Garden and Dubai Butterfly Garden and if you fancy a walk, then stroll along the newly opened Dubai Canal to see the skyline view of the emirate.
If gaming is your thing, then head to the latest theme parks, IMG Worlds of Adventure, one of the biggest indoor theme parks and the latest outdoor theme park Dubai Park and Resorts.
Yet, if you are more inclined to culture and music you can always visit heritage sites in Dubai to learn more about the culture of the country or go for a safari but do not miss the latest venue, Dubai Opera for the latest magnificent shows.
TRAVEL TRADE MENA: What initiatives or projects are there to encourage the growth of tourism?
MOHAMAD AWADALLA: Dubai’s Vision 2020 is the main driver for these sectors.
Aiming for 20 million visitors is a target that heightened the bars for investors to develop the emirate within time to meet the upcoming demand for the Expo 2020.
TIME Hotels aims to be involved with the current happenings that take place in the emirate and we extend dedicated promotions to meet the guest expectations.
Aiming to drive a higher incentive for the guest to attract and involve them, in the activation, to make sure they stay with us during Dubai’s activations be it DSF or DSS.

Christmas is very nearly upon us! Most companies will shut up shop over the festive period, but there’s plenty to do in preparation for the shutdown! Here are a few points to consider regarding payments to your employees.
Under most awards, full and part-time employees are entitled to be paid their usual wage during a shutdown period (casuals don’t have to be paid), with rules in place to regulate the type of payment made.
Employees not covered by an award can be directed to use their annual leave, as long as the request is reasonable. However, it is worth investigating the specific rules regarding a shutdown period when an award or agreement applies, as they can vary greatly.
Take a read of our Annual Leave FAQ here.
Keep in mind also that while on paid leave, employees will continue to accrue annual and personal leave. However, you will need to check the award or agreement to see whether accruals continue or cease once unpaid leave begins. Also, any public holidays that fall during the period of annual leave should be paid at the employee’s base rate, with no hours deducted for the day from their leave balance.
From us all at Payroll HQ, we hope that you have a safe and Merry Christmas and we will see you again in the New Year.

LoveToKnow had the opportunity to review the book, The Cow in the Parking Lot and conduct a Zen approach to anger interview with one of the authors, Susan Edmiston.
LoveToKnow (LTK): How does the Zen approach to overcoming anger differ from anger management?
Susan Edmiston (SE): Anger management teaches you how to keep a mean dog on a leash. The dog can still bite you and other people. The Zen approach starts with the realization that there is little or no benefit to anger and finishes by teaching how to transform anger into compassion.
The Zen Buddhist approach outlined in our book is to use awareness to undo the conditioning that causes us to be angry under certain circumstances and to express that anger in harmful ways.
By becoming aware of the cost of anger, the damage it does to our psyches, relationships and bodies, and the truth that people can choose not to be angry, people can begin to reduce and eliminate anger in their life. People can reduce many occasions for anger just by changing their thinking or experimenting with the ideas presented here, and by understanding why people become angry and what pushes their buttons, they can change their habitual responses.
LTK: Who benefits from the Zen approach to overcoming anger?
SE: As in all things psychological, there has to be a desire to change. People who believe that anger defines who they are are unlikely to want to change. People whose anger is expressed in violence have issues beyond anger such as fear, shame and profound insecurity. Just working on the anger issue won't work for those people.
On the other hand, people who do not get angry a lot can benefit in a completely different way. For many people who understand anger is not beneficial, there is a lingering doubt that perhaps they should be angrier. That would perhaps enable them to get their way more often or get respect. When they study the Zen approach to anger, often they say "Whew, I have been doing it right all along."
This book can help everyone. Merely experimenting with any one of the many ideas and practices presented here can lead to new insight and behavior regardless of personality type.
LTK: How important is meditation?
SE: Meditation is the basic tool of Buddhism. It is thus important in any Buddhist pursuit. However, in the approach taken by the The Cow in the Parking Lot, it is not necessary at first, but can be considered the next step to aid in going further in overcoming anger.
Meditation offers an almost automatic buffer to the stress of life. The calm offered by as little as ten minutes of meditation, or even a few deep breaths, enables us to deal better with occasions for and provocations to anger, as well as angry assaults directed at us.
However, it is not necessary to meditate to benefit from the teachings of this book.
LTK: Why is it important for people to understand their anger?
SE: True awareness of what motivates people allows an accurate insight into what they need to do to get past the anger and make the choice that will most likely meet their needs.
LTK: Is it more important to learn how to avoid anger or how to deal with it?
SE: Anger is a normal human emotion. No one fully overcomes anger. However, reducing the number of things that result in anger is one goal. The most important is learning not to act out anger. The two are intertwined. As one learns not to act out anger, it becomes clear that more and more things are not worth getting angry over. Also, when there are fewer things that make us angry, it becomes clear that acting out anger is virtually never beneficial.
LTK: What are some ways someone can deal with someone else's anger?
SE: The basic rule is not to get angry back. An honest response like, "That hurt." can be effective in changing the battle into a negotiation. In addition, like transforming your own anger into compassion, it is necessary to understand what has motivated the anger directed toward you so that you can have a compassionate response rather than an angry one.
LTK: How do choices affect a person's anger and how can a person make better ones?
SE: A reaction based in anger is generally limited to revenge or martyrdom, neither of which is a rational response. As they tell students in the martial arts, when you get angry you will lose. If you go past the anger and make rational choices, the likelihood is that you will make a more appropriate response.
LTK: Many of the principles presented in the book are Buddhist. Do people have to believe in this religion to benefit from the book?
SE: The answer is no. Overcoming anger will make a Muslim a better Muslim, a Christian a better Christian, and so on. It is no different than meditation which can be practiced without conflict for most faiths. For instance, understanding that an angry response is virtually never beneficial is surely compatible and desirable for any faith that I know about.
It is useful to think of the teachings of Buddhism not as religion in a conventional sense but as a way of behaving in the world that is conducive to happiness. Buddhism prescribes an "Eightfold Path" consisting of Right View, Right Speech, Right Action, etc., in which "right" means not correct as opposed to incorrect, but "right" as in "this is appropriate, this works, this is in sync with reality", as Steve Hagen explains in his classic, Buddhism, Plain and Simple.
LoveToKnow would like to thank Susan Edmiston for taking the time to participate in a Zen approach to anger interview.

Series A, San Paolo St.
Napoli will rely on three easy points for his Udinese household on Wednesday. Both teams come out against each other in a 33rd round of Serie A, which will be played at 21:45 hours.
Napoli lost all chances for the title after Sunday's 0-0 finish as Milan's guests. With this pass, the "blue-and-blue" can not overcome the 14-point pass between them and Juventus, which they can only complain about after having played a really strong campaign that has failed in the last few weeks.
Naples won only three victories in the last six games, allowing the "old lady" to stand on top. However, the season is not lost to Maurizio Sari and a company that is a sure silver medalist and participant in the next season of the Champions League.
Meanwhile, Udinese surprisingly failed 9 consecutive rounds to win a point that totally contradicted their performance at the start of the season when they had quite positive series. The good start still keep them out of the danger zone, but they already have an advance of only six points and if they continue with the failures, they can be quite unpleasantly surprised at the end of the season.
Napoli defeated Udinese in their last four games - three times in Serie A and one time in the Italian Cup. If Napoli was hesitant against top-ranked teams, the team did not leave a point on any of the teams located in the bottom half of the table. Only the teams in the Top 5 managed to score points from Napoli and this will not change. Udinese will record a new record of ten consecutive games without winning!

Last week the Bishop of Pontefract and Lay Canon Yaqub Masih visited Gojra in Pakistan to lay foundation stones for an interfaith clean water project. Regular updates have been coming back from Pakistan during the week and you can read Bishop Tony’s diary and see some pictures on the Diocesan website. As well as laying the foundation stones for the water project, Bishop Tony met Christian leaders of different denominations, broadcast on TV, met the Governor of the Punjab, Health and Housing Ministers, The President of Pakistan and preached to over 12, 000 people at one church gathering. He also met with the Grand Imam of the second largest mosque in Pakistan. Bishop Tony’s diary is a unique opportunity to see and hear news of Pakistan from a different perspective.

Scunthorpe town centre will be bustling with stalls as the popular Continental Market returns to start off the Christmas festivities.
The market, which will take place from Wednesday (November 8) to Sunday (November 12), will be positioned along High Street between Gilliatt Street and Wells Street and open each day from 11am to 7pm.
After receiving a fabulous response last time it came, the market was keen to return to the town. People who went to the market were really positive about their visit, with many saying they would visit again.
The market will have a huge variety of stalls selling everything from Greek cuisine and French Crepes to fudge and leather goods.
Whether you want to start your Christmas shopping or just indulge in delicious foods from around the world, the Continental Market is not to be missed.
Councillor Rob Waltham, leader of North Lincolnshire Council , said: "The Continental Market is always a popular market with its variety of stalls selling items from across the world. You will be able to try a range of food or get some unique Christmas gifts.
"With Christmas just around the corner, you will be able to get in the Christmas spirit at the market. The market is only here for five days, so make sure you don’t miss it.
"Free parking is available for two hours and free after 2pm in The Parishes in the week and free all day on Saturday and Sunday. This gives you plenty of time to wander round the market and take a look at the great shops in Scunthorpe."

Despite Delaware’s small size it is still a very popular state for college students seeking degrees and employment.
Researching the available scholarship and grant programs is a great way to make going to school affordable for you and your family.
Delaware offers a variety of grants and scholarships, either based on academic achievement or financial need, and sometimes both. There are scholarships geared directly towards a specific field of study.
Some scholarships have future commitments you must fulfill, such as working with in a certain capacity or with a certain employer.
For example, several hospitals in Delaware offer scholarships to students entering nursing studies, but in order to receive them the student must be willing to work for the hospital.
The term is usually two years and is based on the amount of money borrowed. Several schools do this as well, in order to acquire teachers, especially in areas of teaching that are currently understaffed.
Other scholarships simply require that the student maintain a good grade level, usually a GPA of 3.0 and above. Students that fall under the required GPA will lose the ability to qualify for renewing their scholarship.
Whatever your needs are, your first stop should always be the Federal grant and loan programs. Most colleges and trade schools make this a requirement anyway, as the Federal grant program, known as FAFSA, will determine your financial eligibility for other award programs.
FAFSA has billions of dollars reserved to help students complete college without it being a financial burden. The application process may seem lengthy but don’t let that stop you from applying.
FAFSA is the Free Application for Federal Student Aid and is open for everyone to apply. The FAFSA application will determine how much money you or your family will be able to contribute to your tuition and material costs. The less you’re able to pay the more FAFSA will provide.
FAFSA grants can be applied for through the mail, over the phone or via the internet. When you’re using the internet you will need to apply for an electronic pin number, which is a virtual way of signing your documents. You’ll need to fill the FAFSA out and have your award amount before you can apply for other Federally funded programs.
Your FAFSA award amount will be paid directly to your school. If there is a remaining amount after your tuition has been met the school will pay it to you at their discretion. Usually this will be after a month or two of classes to ensure that you intend to stay in school.
Remember that applying for FAFSA at the above address is free. There are websites that charge you a fee to apply for the FAFSA. These sites are personal websites and are not affiliated with the government, nor do they genuinely make the application process easier.
There are two Stafford loans: subsidized and unsubsidized. Subsidized loans are based on financial need and not on your credit report. You can be granted a subsidized Stafford loan without good credit. While you’re in school the government pays your accruing interest for you, as well as for up to six months after you’ve graduated. The interest rate thereafter is low.
The student is responsible for the interest during the school year if he or she qualifies for an unsubsidized loan, which is not based on financial need. The interest rate is somewhat higher for this type of loan but there is still the option of a six-month grace period after graduation during which the graduate is allowed time to find a job in their given field of study.
Loan amounts are based on the field of study and how many years of college the student has behind them. Freshman can expect to borrow much less than a senior. Students looking to earn a degree in art may expect to borrow less than a student entering into the nursing profession.
Now we’ll discuss specific Delaware scholarship and grant programs. Many of these programs require that you go to the Delaware Department of Education website in order to fill out a Common Merit Application.
Students must demonstrate serious financial need in order to qualify for the ScIP, a program which they are automatically considered for when they fill out FAFSA and enroll in a non-profit, regionally accredited school in Delaware or Pennsylvania. This is a grant and does not need to be repaid.
Eligible students must be U.S. citizens and residents of Delaware. They must be enrolled full-time in an undergraduate or graduate program of study that is not available at a public university such as the University of Delaware. Students enrolled at the University of Delaware and such facilities will not be eligible. Certificate programs are not eligible either.
Award amounts are based on a combination of financial need and academic merit. The amount increases with higher student achievement. Graduates are eligible for a set amount of $1000; undergraduates are eligible for award amounts ranging from $700 to $2200. Any student with a GPA lower than 2.5 will not be considered for this program.
This grant is designed to help low-income working adults to return to school. In order to be considered eligible the student must be able to verify that their income falls within grant guidelines, be a Delaware resident and a U.S. citizen. Applicants must be 18 years of age or older and possess a high school diploma or GED.
Polytech Adult Education; and Sussex Tech Adult Division.
Award amounts reach a maximum of $2,000. Applicants must be working part-time in a Delaware institution. If working full-time the applicant must work for a small company with fewer than 100 employees. Employees of the government are not eligible for this grant.
Students applying for this scholarship should be Delaware residents and legal U.S. citizens. They should be high school seniors who have already filled out the FAFSA to determine financial responsibility for tuition and materials. This scholarship is heavily based on academic excellence, as a combined SAT of 1350 or more is required to be considered or having been in the top percentile of their class during their senior year of high school. Students must be enrolled full-time at Delaware State University as well.
Award amounts are expansive and include full tuition, room, board and fees for all materials and books. These awards are delivered annually and can be renewed three further times, based upon the student maintaining a GPA of 3.0 or higher.
You may apply at the web address above. You will additionally need to complete a 1000 to 1200 word essay and have your high school transcripts delivered to the University.
Students enrolled full-time in an accredited school with the intention of gaining their RN or LPN, who are Delaware residents and US citizens, and who rank in the top half of their class can be considered for this program. Employees of the state are exempt from residency rules and do not have to be considered Delaware residents. RN’s who have had their license for at least five years and who are returning to school to earn their Bachelor’s may also qualify for this program.
Loan amounts will not exceed the cost of tuition, books and other school-related fees. Loans are renewable for up to three years as long as the student maintains a GPA of 2.75 or higher. In return for being awarded this scholarship the student must be willing to enter into a working contract with a state-owned hospital for one year equal to each year of scholarship awarding. The state hospitals eligible for working out this scholarship obligations are: Governor Bacon Health Center; Emily P. Bissell Hospital; Delaware Hospital for the Chronically Ill; Delaware Psychiatric Center; Delware Veteran’s Home; and the Stockley Center.
March 26 is the deadline for application, high school or college transcripts and all information to be submitted for review. Applicants who apply after this deadline may considered only to the extent that funding is available.
Students wishing to apply for this scholarship must be Delaware residents and citizens of the US. They should have been in the top half of their senior class and have scored a combined 1570 or greater on their SAT and enroll in a college or university with the intention of gaining their teaching certificate. Undergraduates must have maintained a GPA of 2.75 or greater.
Preference is given to students who intend to enter into an area of teaching that is considered a critical needs area, meaning that the number of teachers to meet the need is too few. These areas are: bilingual teachers, business education, English, English to speakers of other languages (ESOL), foreign languages, math, music, reading, science, school librarians, special education and technical education.
This award is given annually and is renewable for up to three years. The scholarship amount is not to exceed the cost of tuition and expenses directly related to educational needs. Maintaining a GPA of 2.75 is necessary to be considered eligible for this scholarship year after year. The student will be expected to enter into a contract for employment for an amount of time of one year equal to each year of scholarship awarding.
This loan repayment program is designed for professionals who have a degree in the medical field and who are willing to commit to two to three years of service. Advanced-degree professionals are eligible to qualify for $70,000 in loan repayment for two years of service or $105,000 for three years. Mid-level degree professionals can expect to qualify for $35,000 for two years of service or $52,500 for three years of service.
Professionals include, but are not limited to, nurse practitioners, primary care physicians and licensed therapists.
This is another program that awards scholarships to students who are willing to repay their loan amount by working in their chosen field, this time for two years equal to each year of their scholarship awarding.
Students must be Delaware residents and US citizens, be enrolled full- or part-time in a program that will earn them a master’s degree in library and informative science. The Librarian and Archivist Incentive Program looks at academic merit, financial need and community service. Preference will be given, however, to those who are already employed at a library or archival institution.
Scholarships will not exceed the amount of tuition and materials needed for education and is renewable for up to three years. Applicants must fill out the FAFSA prior to applying for this scholarship.
There are many different types of Delaware scholarships and grants in addition to the ones mentioned here. Students should inquire with the university or college they’re enrolling with to see if there are any scholarships available exclusively through their school.
Though many scholarships are based on financial need or are awards that are not allowed to cover your living expenses as well, there are still loans you can apply for. Student loans are largely based on creditworthiness but the amounts you can take out are significantly higher than with grant or scholarship programs. You will have the freedom of spending you student loan in any way you wish. You may pay for your housing, utilities and buy a car with your student loan.
Most student loans don’t require that you begin making repayment until after you’ve completed your courses and found a job in your chosen field. Be careful, though, when taking out a student loan. As it is much easier to borrow a large amount of money, many students have gotten into financial difficulty after graduation. It can take many years to pay off a student loan.
Be sure to borrow only the amount you truly need to make your education easier to achieve. Don’t use it to take an expensive vacation to Paris. The job that you earn after getting your degree should be able to pay for that for you.

As a continent completely surrounded by water, Australia is the home of the most diverse range of insects – from the harmless housefly to the not so harmless species. Unfortunately, many of those pesky bugs can transfer undesirable and even life-threatening diseases. Therefore, with being an Aussie comes the responsibility to keep our homes free from any annoying and unwanted bugs.
When summer arrives is when all hell breaks loose. Obviously, you want to keep your home fresh and ventilated and allow more natural light to come in, but that means having to open wide your windows and doors. But an open entrance is also an invitation for any insect outside to walk right in. If only there was a way to let air come in, but keep all those annoying bugs outside?
For one, you can try door and window flyscreens which are an essential part of many Australian households. Fly screens are an effective and at the same time an elegant solution to prevent bugs and all kinds of unwanted visitors such as pests or animals from entering your home. They can be attached directly on your door and window frames without spoiling their beautiful looks. Most window flyscreens are 25 mm wide and 11 mm thick in order to accommodate the most common size of windows in Australia. However, not all doors and windows are the same. If yours have unique measurements that make it hard to find a ready-made model, you can get custom-made flyscreens that will fit perfectly and leave no gaps behind.
Door and window flyscreens are made out of a very resistant mesh material which bugs cannot wiggle or chew their way through. But if you want to take extra measures, a good way to do so is to keep a clean and orderly environment. Most insects are attracted to food, moisture, and filth, and reducing these things in your home is important if you want to remain bug-free. Check whether there’s an unwanted source of moisture like for instance pipe and plumbing leaks. Also, make it your business to immediately wipe away any spills or stains and keeping your kitchen clean at all times. Don’t forget to regularly clean your garbage can and keep it closed. Refrigerate your produce and quickly dispose of any rotten fruit or vegetables.
However, insect prevention does not only refer to taking care of the interior of the house. When the state of your yard is neglected, it can quickly become a source of flea, ant or mosquito infestations. So, if you have a large lawn, make sure you mow it every other week to prevent it from housing insects. All of these solutions work best as preventative measures. But if your home is already infested, it’s better to seek help from professional pest control services.

Prior to a company investing capital into a project that could take months or years to complete and cost many millions of dollars it is prudent to write a feasibility study for companies in Cyprus. The report is generated for one main purpose: to know if the project at hand is even ‘feasible’. By educating oneself with a significant portion of the details surrounding the project, including demographics, target markets, zoning laws, environmental concerns, roads and traffic, proposed pricing or comps as well as the budget and finances will help a company navigate pitfalls resulting in saving time and money. Like numerous other documents a company creates to raise capital or launch a business, such as a prospectus, offering memorandum or business plan, a feasibility study is another piece of the puzzle for companies seeking proper due diligence prior to committing its capital.
Writing a professional feasibility study is good business practice, especially for companies that are planning on raising many millions of dollars and want to have the knowledge readily available to make an educated decision about a projects viability like a Bu Cyprus ffalo based project. By creating such a feasibility study, for instance, for a real estate project, you will be able to navigate potential pitfalls during development and save needed capital in the process, as well as possibly discover new opportunities in the market.
Feel free to reach out to us any time for a free consultation for your Cyprus feasibility study.

I believe that your Bridals are a vitally important aspect of your Wedding Story, which is why I always encourage my Brides to allow me to capture amazing portraits of them, in a Bridal Portrait Session.
And to make the most out of your Bridals here are a few tips I want to offer.
Nothing will ruin the portraits or your Bridal Portrait Session faster, than a dress that doesn't fit and flatter your body. That's why its so important to have a fitting at least one time before, and as close to the day of the Bridals as you possibly can.
When I work with my Brides on coordinating the Bridal Portrait Session, we take a lot of things into consideration. Like location and access to that location, availability of the hair and make up artist, where will hair and make up be done, what time of day we plan on shooting, and of course when the dress is going to be ready.
I always stress when working with your Dress Shop, let them know if you plan on doing a Bridal Portrait Session, and work with them on a couple options on when fittings can be done, so you can plan your Bridals around that.
I've had my Brides and the Bridal Shops actually do a fitting just a few days before the Bridal Portrait Session, and it's worked out beautifully.
One of the benefits of doing Bridal portraits is that you get to run through and see how you will look with your hair and make up on your Wedding Day. This is why I always stress to my Brides, if at all possible, use the same hair and make up artist that you plan on using on your Wedding Day, for your Bridal Portrait Session.
Practice. Sounds strange, but practice makes perfect, right? Even professionals need practice. That’s how they became professionals. And this is the perfect opportunity for your hair and makeup artist to practice their craft and style you to perfection. Why is it so important? This is where the professionals you selected, will be able to discover any issues that might arise on your Wedding Day, and act quickly to solve them now, and not have to deal with them day of. What if your hair stylist finds out they need a different product or equipment they weren't thinking about? Or your makeup artist discovers a tweak she has to make to get your look perfect.
By being there for your Bridals this gives them a chance to make sure they get everything right, address any issues that might come up, and be 100% prepared for your big day.
If you feel something isn't quiet right, this would be your chance to change it. Maybe you find out that you want to make a small adjustment to how your hair is styled, or maybe you want to slightly change a particular color with your makeup. Whatever it is, if there is something you don't like or just want to change, this is the time to do it. The last thing you want is to discover on your Wedding Day, is that something just isn't right, or worse, you don't like the way you look.
Timing. Going through a full hair, makeup, and putting on the dress, will give you and opportunity to see how long each of these things actually take. What if you discover your hair takes 90 minutes instead of an hour? How is this going to affect your timeline? What adjustments are you going to have to make? What if your makeup takes just a bit longer than anticipated, or you discover a couple issues when getting into your wedding dress? This is where you can flush all these things out, get them fixed, and make the right adjustments to your timeline, way in advance of your big day. Better to be late to your Bridals than to your own Wedding.
I always ask my Brides if they have someone they can bring with them who is going to be able to help them get into their dress, help them carry the dress when going to location, and someone that can be there to offer moral support.
It's an important day. This is the first time you will actually see yourself exactly how you will look on your Wedding Day. So don't be surprised if emotions are a little high. You want someone there that you trust, and can lean on. I usually ask if they can bring a sister, Matron of Honor, of a really good friend.
I like to have an assistant accompany me to all my shoots if possible. And when I am doing a Bridal, I always do my best to bring a female assistant. This way if needed, she can help adjust the Bride's dress during the shoot, assist the Bride with posing, holding lights, and helping me with whatever I need.
She can also help the Bride get ready, or getting out of the dress when it's over with, but I always find if the Bride has someone there who she knows and trusts, this always helps the day go by a lot easier.
This really only applies if you plan on using your venue as a location to take your Bridal Portrait Session, or you want to use a location that requires special access.
I'll advise my Brides, when they start looking at venues, always ask if they will allow you to schedule a day to take your Bridals. Every venue I've ever worked with has always been accommodating to this.
However this does take some planning. Since venues only make money when it's booked, you'll find that you have to work around the events they have scheduled. Rule of thumb is that during the week is a lot easier to have access to than on a weekend.
So my suggestion is let's try to plan this on a weekday or if we can a weekend that they don't have any events happening. Two things we don’t want to have happen, is being rushed to get done and leave, and also, we don’t want to contend with any decorations for an event they are planning, where we may want to shoot.
Ask them about taking your Bridal Portrait Sessions there and if there are any additional costs.
Plan around a time where they don’t have any events and won't have decorations up anywhere.
If you want to use a place that requires special permission, say like a luxury hotel, that may require permission from hotel management and even a permit. It's always best to find out this information in advance and do all your due diligence before hand to avoid any issues with using the location.
One of the worse things that could happen during your Bridal Portrait Session, is that your fiancé sees you by accident, before your first look, or walking down the isle. And it could happen. What if you just happen to be somewhere that he drives by and gets a glance, or maybe you decide to try something creative and go to an old hangout, and just by chance he happens to be passing the time there, waiting for you to be done.
The main thing is, you don't want him seeing you before your big day, so make sure he stays home.
I take the time to plan with my Brides. I'll be there with you every step of the way. From coordinating with hair and makeup, location scouting, and timing, I work very closely with you to make sure we plan carefully and everything comes together on the day of the shoot.
One of the unique offerings that I bring to my Brides, is a studio session, in addition to the selected location. During the Bridal Portrait Session, we'll spend a good amount of time together, usually anywhere between 4 to 6 hours.
I like to use some of that time in studio. This is where I can control every aspect of the portraits I capture. I utilize a spacious area, professional lighting equipment, backdrops, and staging to create stunning, heirloom quality portraiture.
One of the best things about taking Bridals on location, if they are outdoors, is utilizing the beauty of natural light. I work closely with my Brides, to plan the timing of the whole day, so we know when the best light will be, at the onsite location we chose, and can take full advantage of what Mother Nature has given us.
I always make sure, that I know the location, the best places to photograph in, and exactly when and where the best light will be.
But I also always make sure to come prepared. I don’t like limiting my creativity when it comes to using lighting, natural or artificial. So I always make sure to have the right equipment available, whether it becomes a necessity, or I see an opportunity to create something magical. So I'll always come prepared with different reflectors, and off camera flash, to make sure we get the most out of the location.

Universal Studios Hollywood has removed the 3-D special effect from its Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey ride only eight months after the attraction opened as the centerpiece of the park’s most expensive expansion.
I haven’t ridden the 3D version, but I’ve never felt that the Florida version really needed 3D. I wonder if they’ll also make the switch to 2D in Japan.
You know, when I heard Cali's HP ride would be 3D I was disappointed and somewhat dismayed. I thought the Florida version was so effective without it, and it was almost like they had to work that much harder to make it realistic. And it payed off. The "live" scenes were quite immersive and the transitions from live to film and back again were rather seamless. I wondered how adding 3D to a darned near perfect ride could make it better.
I was ok with Gringotts having 3D because it was mostly all film anyway. And that ride, over the other, had a "been there, done that" quality to it. In my opinion the IOA ride is still the one to beat.
Have to say I was at first overwhelmed by the Gringott's experience, but the middle section of it was actually a disappointment. You absolutely can not understand what is happening with Voldemort and Bellatrix. The preshow is amazing, and the initial "scene", once in the cart is well done. The rest of it, while "cool", didn't leave me wanting to do it again like HPaTFJ.

Painted on the barrel vaulted ceiling of the entrance to Sanford Studio in Avondale Estates Baptist Church, the 16' x 24' ceiling mural is a stylistic rendition of historic downtown Avondale. The design is based on a one point perspective at the center of the ceiling providing curious visual effects as the viewer walks around the room. The steeple appears to follow you as the buildings appear to warp in front of your eyes.
Details of the painting can be seen below in the church sign and theater sign.

Over the past few years, I have been looking for more opportunities to use design for good, incorporating personal interests into my career with self-initiated (versus client-initiated) projects.
As a Minneapolis resident for more than 25 years, I’ve come to appreciate our parks as one of the primary reasons my family calls this city home. My interest in Minneapolis Parks is deep, varied, and long lasting. Among other things, I’ve biked, walked, rowed, coached, played, eaten, and proposed marriage in our city’s parks.
For several years I served on my Minneapolis neighborhood association’s board of directors. It was during this time – as a liaison to park board commissioners and staff – that I came to understand the perilous financial condition of our park system, and began contemplating ways to address that.
LoveMplsParks.org was created to help engage citizens as park advocates, increase the use and recognition of park amenities, and give park visitors an opportunity to display their support.
50% of all profits will be donated to the Minneapolis Parks to help maintain and preserve our park system.
Since the site was launched, nearly $2,500 has been donated to People for Parks, a non-profit organization created to stimulate financial and community support for Minneapolis Parks. And in June 2016, AIGA Minnesota recognized the project with an award for excellence in design.
A poster show is planned for October 2016.
I invite you to share this with friends who, like me, love Minneapolis parks. You can also follow LoveMplsParks on Twitter and Facebook.

jBPM Designer already has support for in-line process and task form editing. Often however it is useful to be able to provide pre-built form snippets (or “widgets”) and be able to easily expose them to process and form modellers in the tooling.
Form Widgets support is currently in Designer master repository and will be available in the next Designer release.

A couple of years ago a fellow developer was asked to take some data and export it to CSV format. He took some time and researched a library. After, the manager/architect/lead developer (all the same person), questioned why he took that time, and why he didn’t just string.Join() them together and move on. He rattled off a few special cases, escaping characters etc. and stood by his decision though the person questioning still thought it a poor one. About once a month since then I hear a new story about home-grown, handmade CSV functionality breaking because it didn’t account for a case, character or something previously unexpected.
It’s a reminder to me that no matter how simple the task appears to be, a thought should be given to it’s longevity, future usage, and potential expectations long after the initial case for creation has been forgotten. A small investment now can go a long way.

A huge thanks to Jackie Baldwin and Harper Collins for asking me to participate in the blog tour for the recently published “Dead Man’s Prayer”, I was delighted to be asked!
Jackie Baldwin practiced as a solicitor in a rural town for twenty years specialising in family and criminal law. She then trained as a hypnotherapist and now works from home. She is married with two grown up children and loves to walk with her two dogs in local forests. She is an active member of her local crime writing group.
I was delighted to be asked to review this book from a new Scottish author and for a book set in Dumfries and Galloway area – this is an unusual setting as most of the books I read are set in Glasgow or the central belt of Scotland. Let me tell you – after reading this, Dumfries and Galloway is not the quiet and quaint little area that you might think it is….we have a murdered priest, abducted children, a convicted serial killer in the community and an ex priest turned policeman! Who would have thought it!
The book got off to a great start, gripping plot lines to draw the readers in and a number of interesting characters that will grab your attention – I found myself wanting to know much more about Frank Farrell’s decision to leave the priesthood for the force and what is it about DC Mhairi McLeod that makes her “party cop” to the detriment of her reputation in the force?
The main plot around the murdered priest and the abducted children was tense and nerve-wracking and as the book progresses the reader finds themselves drawn in even more, so many secrets and lies unfold and it was here that the book begins to take more shape for me. By the end of the book my heart was racing and I couldn’t go to sleep until I had finished it!
I found myself drawn to Farrell and McLeod as their characters developed; I think they make a winning team! Farrell’s background fascinates me and his relationships with other characters are something that I hope will be explored further in the coming books; his emotional connections with Dumfries are certainly a tangled web and there are sure to be some twists and turns as the series develops. I think the characters in this series are going to be intense and fascinating & I am really looking forward to seeing how they develop!
The plot/sub plots underlying the book are great, they are what ticks my box when reading a crime novel; the location is superb – a wee quiet area which hides a multitude of secrets. Connections that unfold and twist there way into the storyline. I would have liked a bit more background or depth and it left me feeling slightly frustrated as though I was missing out on something e.g. Frank’s background and Mhairi’s apparent lack of self esteem are all areas where I felt as a reader that I was left with questions unanswered. Some of these were addressed as the book progressed but at the beginning left me with a feeling of missing something as a reader. However, this isn’t the end of the world, this is a first novel in a series and all of this can be built upon in future books in the series and I will certainly be following the series to see where it goes.
To buy the book jump over to that place called Amazon and get clicking!

During the summer of 2017 there has been a donation to and renovation of the boys' athletic locker room. There has been no changes to the females'. Donations must benefit all genders, races, ethnicities, ages and religions. If it is not possible to benefit all these, then the money and funds must be raised by BLSA or another manner to create this equality. The girls' locker room is old and it is time to be redone as equally as much as the boys'.
Carly Heffernan needs your help with “Boston Latin School: Equality in Boston Latin Athletics- Renovate the Girls Locker Room”. Join Carly and 182 supporters today.

People who elicit and manage requirements – product managers, business analysts, program managers, and others – also orchestrate and communicate with their clients. In an enterprise software project, the requirements manager (RM from here on out) has to communicate with people across the client organization. To pass along information, gain support, and gather understanding. Plus all of the consulting tasks of resolving conflicts, setting expectations, and managing change.
One of the key factors of effective communication is having an understanding of your audience. One thing you need to understand about your audience is their background. Not only will people have varying degrees of understanding of your project, but they will approach it from very different perspectives – colored with prejudices, assumptions, and histories.
Trying to group people’s backgrounds will help ease some of the context-handling elements of communication, and let you focus more effort on the message. I use the following Venn diagram as a tool to help me, and often to help them (in consensus building, for example).
Most people tend to fall pretty squarely into one of the three archetypes in the diagram.
You don’t have to look any further than some of the bit-players in the Dilbert strip to see some of the stereotypes. But it does help to understand why someone asks for a perpetual motion device, or demands that an NP-complete problem be solved in the software, or why someone doesn’t understand that if it doesn’t work correctly, that’s even worse than being delayed (or vice versa). Most people tend to color their analysis with a single perspective.
These are the cross-functional folks who you desperately want involved in the project. Switch-hitters are people who live in two domains – usually having experience in both, or an education in one and a role in the other. The next diagram shows the areas of overlap from the Venn diagram above.
These are the folks who “graduated” from product design to product sales, the hands-on CFO who does all of his relative’s taxes for fun, and other combinations. These are people who have deep domain expertise, and are also aware of the business drivers of projects. They build bridges. They help engineers understand why the company won’t sell a particular product even though it works better than what they are selling.
These are most often IT folks who came from the product/accounting group, and can apply deep domain expertise to software decisions. They are the folks most likely to catch problems with the specs, or the resulting designs. In another post, I’ll talk about mavens and ignoramuses.
These are the people who bring rationality to projects. They do a great job of balancing practical delivery constraints with business objectives. They can be business-centric IT folks, or execution-focused business people.
Where does the RM fit in?
Ideally, your RM is the star of the project (double entendre intended). This person will understand the business well enough to make good prioritization decisions. This person will understand the “devil in the details” pieces of the domain well enough to communicate effectively with everyone, and be able to know when the requirements are wrong. This person will also be able to negotiate away the impossible, and leverage the capabilities of the delivery teams to achieve the unthinkable.
When you can find one person to live in the center, you win. When you can’t, then bring the switch-hitters together to help everyone work together.

2. Explain and apply a range of theories needed to successfully live together in a culturally diverse world.
3. Identify and apply skills in mindfulness and critical reflection and awareness that supports your own development of intercultural competence.
5. Communicate orally and in writing an awareness and understanding of intercultural competence.
Reflective writing is evidence of reflective thinking, and is a process where you can learn from your experiences. In particular, the reflective journal assessment in this subject supports you to explore and articulate your intercultural learning and its relevance to your personal, social and professional life. To guide you in your reflective writing, you will be given “prompts” that will encourage you to critically consider what you have learnt.
• Respond to the journal prompt highlighting something you have learnt from the subject’s resources and your experiences.
• Reflect upon and analyse issues presented in the prompt. You are encouraged to reflect on the relevance of key concepts/ideas presented to your experience, prior knowledge, workplace or region.
• Effectively communicate & demonstrate learning by discussing key ideas/concepts from resources (and referring to authors using APA referencing).
• Articulate the significance of your learning (why it matters).
• Identify how you can use your learning, especially in relation to personal, social and professional contexts.
The expression in English- “feeling like a fish out of water”- is used to describe experiences and situations when we feel really uncomfortable, when we are out of our normal range of activities or environment.
a fish is born into water and so simply experiences the water as one with itself; a fish has no way of knowing that it is actually separate from the water. And although the fish is separate, it still cannot survive without water. In the same way that a fish cannot live without water, we cannot make sense of the world without the meaning-making system that our culture provides. Yet this system is hard to see because we have always been “swimming” within it; we just take for granted that what we see is real, rather than a perception of our reality.
Consider the above quotes in the context of intercultural learning and exploring cultural differences. “Water” refers to the things that we usually take for granted about our reality. What have you become more aware about as a result of your intercultural learning- in terms of your water- since starting this subject?

Willie Boag – Where the magic happens.
I’m a PhD student in the Clinical Decision Making Group (MEDG) at MIT CSAIL supported by an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship.
Also this semester, I’m TA’ing for MIT’s new course Machine Learning for Healthcare! I am so excited for this.
The lectures are being recorded and will be on MIT OCW after the semester.
We have invited speakers throughout the semester coming in to talk about ML being deployed for improving health.
We are piloting a “ML for Health Community Consulting” program where doctors in the Boston area can come in for free data science advice on projects/models/etc.
In general, I’m interested in technology, healthcare, policy, society, machine learning, and (to some extent) effective altruism. Also, I love going for runs and playing with dogs.

This is an original, rolled, one-sheet movie poster from 1996 for Bottle Rocket starring Luke Wilson, Owen Wilson, Ned Dowd, Shea Fowler, and James Caan. Wes Anderson directed the crime comedy.
The single-sided poster measures 27" x 40" and is in good to very good condition with a small, surface scratch at the bottom-right and a small, pen-mark in the upper-right corner. The poster has minor surface creasing and edge wear from previous handling. It has never been folded.
Please look closely at the photo (this is the exact poster you are buying). It is not cropped or a stock image. The black squares around the edges of the poster are magnets and not pins.
This rare and collectible poster, printed in 1996 to promote the theatrical release of Bottle Rocket, is not a reproduction or a reprint.

Newswise, March 9, 2017 — Working with human breast cancer cells and mice, researchers at Johns Hopkins say they have identified a biochemical pathway that triggers the regrowth of breast cancer stem cells after chemotherapy.
"Breast cancer stem cells pose a serious problem for therapy," says lead study investigator Gregg Semenza, M.D., Ph.D., the C. Michael Armstrong Professor of Medicine, director of the Vascular Biology Program at the Johns Hopkins Institute for Cell Engineering and a member of the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center.
"These are the cells that can break away from a tumor and metastasize; these are the cells you most want to kill with chemotherapy. Paradoxically, though, cancer stem cells are quite resistant to chemotherapy."
Semenza says previous studies have shown that resistance to chemotherapy arises from the hardy nature of cancer stem cells, which are often found in the centers of tumors, where oxygen levels are quite low.
Their survival is made possible through proteins known as hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs), which turn on genes that help the cells survive in a low-oxygen environment.
In this new study, described Feb. 21 in Cell Reports, Semenza and his colleagues conducted gene expression analysis of multiple human breast cancer cell lines grown in the laboratory after exposure to chemotherapy drugs, like carboplatin, which stops tumor growth by damaging cancer cell DNA.
The team found that the cancer cells that survived tended to have higher levels of a protein known as glutathione-S-transferase O1, or GSTO1. Experiments showed that HIFs controlled the production of GSTO1 in breast cancer cells when they were exposed to chemotherapy; if HIF activity was blocked in these lab-grown cells, GSTO1 was not produced.
Semenza notes that GSTO1 and related GST proteins are antioxidant enzymes, but GSTO1's role in chemotherapy resistance did not require its antioxidant activity.
Instead, following exposure to chemotherapy, GSTO1 binds to a protein called the ryanodine receptor 1, or RYR1, that triggers the release of calcium, which causes a chain reaction that transforms ordinary breast cancer cells into cancer stem cells.
To more directly assess the role of GSTO1 and RYR1 in the breast tumor response to chemotherapy, the researchers injected human breast cancer cells into the mammary gland of mice and then treated the mice with carboplatin after tumors had formed. In addition to using normal breast cancer cells in the experiments, the team also used cancer cells that had been genetically engineered to lack either GSTO1 or RYR1.
Loss of either GSTO1 or RYR1, the researchers report, decreased the number of cancer stem cells in the primary tumor, blocked metastasis of cancer cells from the primary tumor to the lungs, decreased the duration of chemotherapy required to induce remission and increased the duration of time after chemotherapy was stopped that the mice remained tumor-free.
Although the study showed that blocking the production of GSTO1 may improve the efficacy of chemotherapy drugs, such as carboplatin, GSTO1 is only one of many proteins that are produced under the control of HIFs in breast cancer cells that have been exposed to chemotherapy.
The Semenza lab is working to develop drugs that can block the action of HIFs, with the hope that HIF inhibitors will make chemotherapy more effective.
Other authors of the report include Haquin Li, Ivan Chen, Larissa Shimoda, Youngrok Park, Chuanzhao Zhang, Linh Tran and Huimin Zhang of the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.

It felt like the end of an era when I left Vancouver BC – nothing to do with me personally, but because the city’s three-term mayor Gregor Robertson had announced that he would be standing down after ten years in office. Still absurdly young and good-looking (he was a proto-Justin Trudeau, and like him is known just by his first name), he presided over an era in which Vancouver became known as one of the planet’s most desirable places to live, with its amazing sea-and-skiing setting, its lively culture, its innovative bars and restaurants, its wealth of cycle lanes… But being perpetually atop the world liveability rankings does mean that the whole world wants to move there, and housing in Vancouver has become absurdly expensive, partly because a lot of wealthy Chinese in particular have invested in grand homes which are then often left empty. In 2017 the city introduced a tax on empty houses, and the province of British Columbia introduced a 15% tax on non-residents buying property. Meanwhile, the federal government has just increased the annual immigration rate from 280,000 a year to 340,000 by 2020, and the Metro Vancouver area is expected to see between 1 million and 1.2 million new residents over the next 30 years.
Not surprisingly there’s a homelessness crisis – Robertson pledged to end it, but soon found that the mild winter climate, among other things, meant that Canada’s homeless will just keep on moving west. This is linked with the opioid addiction crisis that is sweeping North America (to the bafflement of the rest of the world), and the fact that the provincial and federal governments were controlled for much of his time in office by unsympathetic right-wing parties (thankfully now removed). The Downtown Eastside district, very close to the city centre and yes, just to the east, has been associated with drugs for a long time, and is now being ravaged by the opioid crisis; between January and September 2017 over 1100 people died of suspected overdoses in British Columbia (mainly in the Vancouver area and Vancouver island), and the synthetic opioid Fentanyl was involved in 83% of those deaths.
But there’s no denying that something special has been created here – ‘Vancouverism’ is ‘characterized by a large population living in the city centre with mixed-use developments, …significant reliance on mass public transit, creation and maintenance of green park spaces, and preserving view corridors’. In other words, a city where people don’t feel the need to travel by car and live in the suburbs (it’s also very multicultural, but that’s another matter). So it’s no surprise that public transport is busy and expanding – frequencies and service hours are being increased on buses (including the B-Line express routes), the SeaBus ferry to North Vancouver (now every ten minutes at peak times) and the Skytrain automated metro. Now that Skytrain has reached the airport (though with a stonking add-on fare) the next priority has to be to serve UBC, the university that’s the size of a separate town on the coast southwest of the city, which is reached by frequent but overcrowded buses. Skytrain’s Millennium Line (which currently dead-ends in the middle of some railway yards at VCC/Clark) is to be extended west along Broadway as far as Arbutus St (in trendy Kitsilano), less than halfway to UBC, perhaps by 2024. The existing Skytrain lines are largely elevated, apart from some old railway routes, but this extension will largely be in tunnel, and thus much more expensive. There’s an aspiration to eventually push the Skytrain all the way to UBC, but that’s a long way off.
Vancouver’s equivalent to London’s Oyster Card is the Compass Card, introduced in 2015; after some teething problems, it’s working well, and allows hassle-free transfers and much cheaper fares than for cash.
Another aspect of Robertson’s legacy (omitted from the definition of ‘Vancouverism’ above) is a huge expansion in cycle facilities – the ten years to 2016 saw a rise in Greater Vancouver’s cycle-commuting rate from 1.7% to 2.3%, and in the city itself the rate is 6.1%. Hardly Dutch levels, but pretty good by North American standards. There’s also a high level of leisure cycling – the one-way loop around Stanley Park is legendary, and by June 2018 a new route should follow the coast from the Burrard Bridge through Kitsilano (‘Kits’) to Jericho Beach, giving a total of 28km of safe cycling from the downtown Convention Centre much of the way to UBC. Incidentally, the pedestrian/cycle promenade around the Convention Centre has some excellent panels with fascinating nuggets of historical information; you also get one of the quintessential Vancouver views here, with the cruise terminal to the right, the mountains and ski slopes of North Vancouver ahead, and Stanley Park and Coal Harbour (where the seaplanes and the V2V fast ferry mentioned in this post dock) to the left.
The cycle route to Jericho Beach mentioned above passes through Vanier Park, where the Museum of Vancouver has been revitalised in recent years. Like most of the Pacific North West museums, it now gives the First Nations their rightful place in local history, helped by recent research that’s revealed much more about their civilisations. It’s important to remember that, thanks to the plentiful salmon runs, these peoples had a much easier life than those inland, allowing them the leisure to develop a rich artistic culture, characterised by their ‘formline’ style of decoration on carvings and textiles. But it’s less well known that artistic production really exploded in scale after the arrival of Europeans created a retail market for the first time. Totem poles used to be pretty temporary constructions, their natural rotting and collapsing being part of the memorial process, but now far more are being made and they’re being preserved. What’s more, new crafts developed, such as argillite carving in Haida Gwaii (formerly the Queen Charlotte Islands), and Salish basket weaving (previously the Salish people had just made hats). The best-known example, though not represented here, is Cape Dorset printmaking, which was created out of the blue in the 1950s when a government administrator in Baffin Island brought in materials and encouraged the Inuit people to discover their creativity.
The museum also has good coverage of the 1960s, when a popular uprising blocked a very destructive plan to build freeways through Gastown and Chinatown, linking to a third crossing to North Vancouver, when all the politicians were initially in favour. In 1972 a new party called TEAM (The Electors Action Movement) took control of the city council, eventually leading to Vision Vancouver and Gregor Robertson, which is where we started. Oh, and in 1969 a little pressure group called Greenpeace was formed in a Vancouver living room.
I don’t have a lot to say about food and drink here, but the current food fad is poké, a rice and fish bowl combo from Japan via Hawai’i which I don’t find very interesting (because I don’t eat meat or fish, and rice often doesn’t agree with me). I’d have been far more interested in sampling the many good local beers, but didn’t get around to it. Canada’s first microbrewery was founded at the Troller Bay pub in Horseshoe Bay, West Vancouver, back in 1982 when nothing but industrial lagers were available; it closed down around 2000, but only after spawning other very successful outfits such as Spinnakers and Hoyne Brewing (both in Victoria), Howe Sound Brewing (in Squamish) and Strange Fellows Brewing Company (in Vancouver). In 2013 the Troller Ale House opened close to the original pub, serving the original Troller Bay Ale as well as offerings from local craft breweries. Of course, every bar in the city now carries a range of interesting beers and ciders, not to mention gins.

Bring a large pot of water to boil. Cook the shells according to the package instructions, making sure to cook them a bit al dente.
Gently fold together the ricotta, Parmesan, parsley, salt, pepper, eggs, lemon zest and 1 cup of the mozzarella in a bowl. Fill the cooked shells with 1 tablespoon of the ricotta mixture each. Spoon a layer of the Tomato Sauce on the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking pan, about 2 1/2 cups. Place the filled shells on top of the sauce; do not overcrowd. Top the shells with the remaining 1 cup Tomato Sauce. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup mozzarella.
Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes; remove the foil and cook until the cheese is fully melted and browned on top, an additional 5 minutes. Finish with chopped parsley and serve.
Bring the milk, half-and-half and salt to a simmer in a saucepan. Mix in the lemon juice and let the mixture sit off of the heat until curds form. Line a sieve with 2 pieces of cheesecloth and place it over a medium bowl.
Pour the milk mixture into the sieve and allow it to drain into the bowl for 20 to 25 minutes. Discard the liquid in the bowl occasionally so the sieve is not sitting in the liquid. The longer you let the mixture drain, the thicker the ricotta will be.
Use immediately or refrigerate in a covered container for 4 to 5 days.
Put the beef bone on a rimmed baking sheet and roast for 30 minutes. Set aside.
Drizzle 3 tablespoons of the olive oil on a separate rimmed baking sheet. Add the tomatoes cut-side down in a single layer. Drizzle the tops of the tomatoes with an additional 3 tablespoons olive oil, sprinkle with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper and add the parsley. Roast until tender, 25 to 40 minutes. Transfer the tomatoes and parsley to a blender and puree until smooth. Set aside.
Heat a large stockpot on high heat and add the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Add the garlic and saute for 1 minute. DO NOT let the garlic burn. Add the reserved tomato puree and bone to the pot. Simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Season with additional salt and pepper.

Another great Aussie band from the early 1970’s and remarkably, their only charting hit.
I suspect we would see a three way tussle between this song and A Whiter Shade Of Pale and San Francisco for the number one position.
It’s a song that could have only been recorded by an Australian band in 1971 – no other era, no other country. It is a classic!

WALLINGFORD — The town finished the 2016-2017 fiscal year with a $1.4 million deficit, according to a recent financial audit.
As a result of the shortfall, the town’s general fund balance, or so-called “rainy day fund,” fell from $29.2 million on June 30, 2016, to $27.8 million on June 30, 2017, according to the annual audit, prepared by the BlumShapiro accounting firm of West Hartford.
Town Council Chairman Vincent Cervoni said the decline in reserves concerns him as the town begins preparing the 2018-19 budget.
“In light of the fact that we’re going into this budget year with a less-than-perfect certainty about what funding we will get from the state, it leaves me concerned,” said Cervoni, a Republican.
Cervoni added he believes the $1.4-million deficit based on generally accepted accounting pricinciples, or GAAP, is small compared to the town’s overall budget of around $160 million.
Mayor William W. Dickinson Jr. also expressed concern about the decline in reserves.
“I just think we need to be a little more careful about how we’re putting together our budget and continue to reconsider and be more creative about how we’re funding capital expenses,” Testa said.
Comptroller Jim Bowes said there are two ways of measuring the town’s financial performance in a given year. One measurement is GAAP, which are pracitces established to ensure that accountants are using the same standards to promote transparency and allow for comparison between financial statements of public or private entities.
This method considers additional line items, such as payments made in the current fiscal year for expenses originally incurred in past years. The second measurement to determine a surplus or deficit, called budgetary standards, only looks at expenditures and revenues budgeted for a specific year, and doesn’t account for costs that might roll over from past years.
According to the audit, the town’s budgetary, or “non-GAAP,” expenditures of $155.6 million exceeded non-GAAP revenues of $155.2 million, indicating the town had a budget deficit of $430,000 last fiscal year.
The difference between the $1.4 million GAAP deficit and the $430,000 non-GAAP deficit shown in the audit is created by $801,000 in costs from purchase orders from past years that were not received and liquidated until 2016-17, and $227,000 in accrued wages from the previous year.
Bowes, however, wrote in a memo last week that the town actually recorded a budgetary surplus of $314,000. He arrived at this number by subtracting $744,000 of “appropriations-in-force” from the town’s total expenditures for 2016-17, which the audit did not do. Appropriations-in-force are items that were budgeted for in past years but paid for last year.
“You have to extract that out if you want to do a true budget analysis on amounts approved for in the fiscal year,” Bowes told the Record-Journal this week. The full 180-page audit can be viewed online through the state Office of Policy and Mangement’s electronic audit reporting system.
This is the first year the town’s general fund balance has decreased since fiscal year 2009-10, according to past audits. From fiscal year 2010-11 to fiscal year 2015-16, the town recorded an average GAAP surplus of $1.19 million, with surpluses ranging from $671,000 to $2.1 million. The town’s general fund balance grew by $7.1 million in that time.
Wallingford has one of the largest general fund balances among Connecticut municipalities of similar size, according to data from the state Office of Policy and Management.
Bowes said the GAAP deficit in 2016-17 can be partly attributed to reductions in the town’s state grant revenue, which totaled $1.3 million in fiscal year 2016-17, according to Bowes.
Mayor William W. Dickinson Jr. said he doesn’t consider the audit’s findings a true deficit because the town still holds a positive balance in its general fund.
“I don't see that as a deficit,” Dickinson said. “Deficit to me means that you're less than zero. We aren't in the minus, we just have a lesser amount than before” in the general fund balance.
Among the $27.83 million the town held in reserves at the end of last year, only $2.4 million is unreserved and undesignated, according to Bowes. His memo stated that $7.2 million of the $27.82 was designated to balance the 2017-18 budget, $1.69 million was previously appropriated for different items and carried forward from past years, $135,000 is assigned to purchase orders that were not yet complete as of June 30, 2017, $143,000 is prepaid for gasoline and fuel and the town chooses to retain the remaining $16.2 million for credit rating purposes.
The town finished the 2015-16 fiscal year with $6.6 million in unreserved and undesignated reserves, according to a memo Bowes sent to the mayor in December 2016.
In recent years, the reserve fund has been a subject of debate, with some arguing it has become too large and is a sign of overtaxation.
Cervoni said he hopes this recent audit will change the way people look at the reserve fund.
“If you think we've been overtaxed you really need to rethink that based on the last audit,” Cervoni said.

Politics are local! Senators and House of Representative members are very responsive to their constituents. Because they are elected, they need votes to stay in office. Their natural inclination is to get to know their voters, address local problems and understand what they can do to help.
The goal of our Association is to build an effective and dynamic grassroots advocacy network that will translate into positive results for practicing pharmacists so that bills that pharmacists support receive positive votes in Senate and House committees and are then passed through both the House of Representatives and the Senate, and bills that are seen as detrimental to the practice of pharmacy are defeated. This is a step-by-step guide about building an effective grassroots network throughout the state that will have an impact on policies made in the Commonwealth.
The Massachusetts General Court is in session from January through June each year.
Grassroots advocacy refers to efforts by individuals and organizations at the local level to influence the public policy debate at the State House. Grassroots advocacy involves constituents communicating with legislators and the public through the press, by writing letters, sending emails or faxes, or circulating petitions that will be delivered to a selected legislator or legislators. These forms of advocacy focus attention on an issue that would otherwise not be visible or well understood. They serve to convey the importance of such issues to legislators, creating an impetus for action.
The MPhA has its own built in Grassroots Action Center which allows our members, and others from the pharmacy community, to identify their legislator and using either our pre-populated email or provide a customized version to send emails to their local Representatives and Senators. Although an online campaign is an an important tool in generating community awareness and involvement on an issue, a follow up phone call to the Representative or Senator provides a more personal approach.
How do I request a meeting with the legislator at the State House?
Call the office. Legislators’ offices are listed on Mass.gov. Ask to speak to the legislator’s staff person who is responsible for scheduling. State that you would like to meet directly with the legislator. Ask about the meeting request procedure. Some offices prefer to take meeting requests by phone. Others will ask you to submit the request by email. In any event, you will be asked for the topic of the meeting since legislators deal with wide ranging issues. If this is an introductory meeting, you might say, ‘I’d like to discuss the community pharmacy business environment (or pharmacy practice issues).’ Mention bill number(s) if you have them. Follow the process, being sure to take note of the scheduler’s name to smooth the way for follow-up calls or other meeting requests. Allow a few weeks for the office to schedule the meeting.
What will be the agenda and timeframe for the meeting?
When the meeting is scheduled, ask about the time allotted for the meeting and who on staff (if anyone) will attend. You’ll want to keep these facts in mind. Since you have initiated the meeting, you are expected to present the topic and come prepared for the discussion. MPhA can provide materials (e.g. talking points, a copy of the legislation, memos of support or opposition). It is up to you to establish rapport and to present the materials in a way that is factual and convincing.
If the scheduler offers a meeting with the chief of staff, accept the meeting. Meetings with constituents are always reported to the elected official. Your time will not be wasted.
What are the general rules for meetings with legislators?
If you do not meet with the legislator directly, do not express your disappointment. The staff person will brief the legislator after your meeting. Be sure to get the card of the person you meet with or get the person’s name, title, and contact information.
Be prepared. Review talking points, printed materials and documents designed to be left with the legislator.
Stay on topic. Do not negotiate changes in the Association's position or language in the bill. If you are asked a question you cannot answer, do not guess. Say you will research the question and get back to the legislator with the response.
Maintain a friendly business-like manner.
We encourage you to provide feedback about the meeting to MPhA. Tell us who you met with so we can plan follow up. Follow up with a brief note thanking the legislator or staff member for the meeting. Please refrain from mentioning campaign contributions and keep in mind patient privacy and other legal obligations regarding disclosure of information.
What should I say and do in an introductory meeting with a legislator about a specific piece of legislation in the district?
Keep the ultimate goal in mind: A working relationship based on mutual respect that will be ongoing throughout the legislator’s tenure of office. The legislator should see you as a valuable source of reliable information and an active, engaged constituent. Introduce yourself as a pharmacist. State your home address and the name and address of the pharmacy where you practice.
Establish common ground by mentioning a recent news item, a public event that included the legislator or a fact from the legislator’s bio that suggests something in common.
Talk about what you do. Describe the neighborhood, the healthcare problems you see, and how you, as a practicing pharmacist, have helped people in the district.
Present the issue using the suggested talking points and elaborate on them with additional facts and examples from your experience. Leave behind copies of the MPhA materials that you were provided.
Establish next steps. Is the legislator ready to follow through and vote for (or against) the bill or join on as a co-sponsor? If the legislator is not ready to make a commitment, what other questions does the legislator have? Offer to follow up and/or be available for another meeting. MPhA is happy to support you in any visit or follow-up.
What is the purpose of inviting a legislator to visit behind the counter at a community pharmacy?
Grassroots lobbying is also very effective. Extend the invitation for your representative to visit your place of business. The legislator is on home turf and ready to listen to a local pharmacist who is familiar with the district and who knows voters.
Legislators discuss and vote on issues dealing with a wide range of topics -- crime, taxes, water, cemeteries, hospitals, insurance, schools, opiates, etc. Most have little working knowledge of what pharmacists know and what pharmacists do. Many rely on personal experiences to inform their votes. Just a few have been behind the counter. Those who visit a pharmacy have come away with a greater appreciation of pharmacists and a better understanding of pharmacy issues. In short, the experience pays dividends.
How would I prepare for a legislator’s visit at a community pharmacy?
Such visits are not for everyone. Most often the invitation is extended by the owner of an independent pharmacy who has developed a successful working relationship over time with a state senator or house representative.
Thank you for your interest in advocacy. With your help, MPhA is building a strong network of voices throughout the Commonwealth with a message that will be heard loud and clear in the State House!

The European Commission on Tuesday approved Disney's acquisition of parts of Fox on the condition that it divest a number of channels.
The transaction, which was notified to the Commission on September 14, raised concerns over the wholesale supply of TV channels. The Commission said that the deal would have eliminated competition between two strong suppliers of "factual channels" such as the National Geographic and History channels.
To address the Commission's competition concerns, Disney committed to divest its interest in all factual channels it controls in the EEA, namely: History, H2, Crime & Investigation, Blaze and Lifetime channels. These channels are currently controlled by A+E Television Networks, which is a joint venture between Disney and Hearst.

"I Will Build My Church" by Dr. Thomas Strouse subtitled: "The Doctrine and History of Baptists" is an excellent summary of the various doctrinal distinctions the Baptists have held to since the start of the New Testament church. Dr. Strouse has written other books, however this one seems to me an easier read in comparison to his other works. Not only did he do a great job summarizing doctrinal 'essentials' that have been abandoned in the name of "Fundamentalism", but he also summarizes movements that are characteristically Baptists and therefore provides his readers with the historical heritage of Christ's churches. 201 pages, softcover, and loaded with great bibliographical information for further study. Dr. Strouse has certainly demonstrated in this book the truth of Christ's words regarding His church: "and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."

I love N&S. This sounds like a wonderful story!
I like how variations can really take off after one change in a story. I haven’t read a N&S one yet. I’ll have to keep this one in mind. Nice review, Rita!
I enjoyed this book, too. It was my favorite of the two by Ms. Brasure, although I liked both. Thanks for sharing your thoughts in this review.
Thank you Janet 🙂 I always think of you when I post something about North and South 🙂 I always wonder what your opinion is.
Wonderful review, thanks, Rita! Every time I read one of your N & S posts I’m thinking I don’t read anywhere near enough variations on that beautiful story. You’ll say I’m obsessed with P & P (and you’d be 100% right, by the way 😀 ) but this one appeals to me even more because the early engagement and the chance to get to know each other better, without the stormy rows of the original novel, makes me think of all the P & P variations where Elizabeth gets an earlier peak into Mr Darcy’s good nature and they grow attached for all the right reasons.
I’ll definitely read this book!
Thank you Joana! This is the book I talked to you about a couple of months ago. I do think it’s one of the best, and definitely worth reading.
There are so many similarities in the two relationships aren’t there? Darcy proposes to Elizabeth and is rejected, so is Thornton. In both cases, he has fallen in love with her first. Both have to prove that they really are good men at heart.
Like Joana, I’m reminded of all the P&P variations where that animosity between hero and heroine doesn’t really get the chance to blossom and they come to a better understanding without it.
North and South is my next audiobook so I may well be in the mood for some variations afterwards.
Yes, they are very, very similar, I think that’s why I love them both so much!
I’ve already seen the dramatisation (sigh!) and read the original, some years ago admittedly. Thought it was time to revisit it, especially when I got the chance to get the audiobook really cheaply and Juliet Stevenson is such a great narrator.
I discovered recently that because I have particular editions of Jane Austen’s and Elizabeth Gaskell’s books on my Kindle, I can get the corresponding audiobook through my membership with Audible UK at a really good price, £2.99 or even less! The Kindle books don’t even have to be paid ones. I have all of Jane Austen’s and some of Elizabeth Gaskell’s as free Kindle books. I got the North and South audio for £2.99 – an audio lasting over 18 hours. Not bad value, is it?
Those prices that I was offered worked out even cheaper than the price I have to pay for my Audible subscription credits. I get 24 audiobooks a year for around £4.60 each, so if I get the chance to buy an audiobooks I really want and it’s less than that, then I do.
Don’t know if it works the same in other countries, though.
Wonderful review. I am a huge N&S fan and will definitely have this on my TBR.
This sounds like a fab book,Rita. I read Trudy’s A Heart for Milton and loved it,but I haven’t managed to read this one yet.
I adore Gaskell’s writing. I had the pleasure of reading N&S for the first time some months ago and felt so happy to be doing so!!
I knew the ending but I was so caught up with Gaskell’s choice of words that I was simply swept away and couldn’t wait read the final words given to John and Margaret.
So I guess I must make time for In Consequence,as it sounds almost as good as the original!!

The Cheltenham Festival brings together the best horse from the UK and Ireland over four days of superb racing. The meeting features championship races for hurdlers and steeplechasers over a variety of distances. There is also a cross-country race and a championship bumper, which is a Flat race for National Hunt bred horses. Another feature of the Cheltenham Festival is the big-field competitive handicaps. Unexposed horses often perform well in these races and racing horses are prepared well in advance. The titles of leading jockey and leading trainer at the Cheltenham Festival are sought after by the best riders and handlers. There is also a contest between UK and Irish trained runners, and this is a popular betting heat.
The Cheltenham Festival leading jockey title is decided by the number of winners. If two or more jockeys are tied placed rides are used as a tie-break. In the unlikely event of a tie when these results are taken into the account the honour is shared. There is no cash prize involved and the concept is bookmaker led. Betting on the top rider at the Cheltenham Festival is popular. Placing this type of wager means you have a horse running in most races if you back one of the leading jockeys. The most proficient jockeys who can deliver consistency are employed by the best trainers who have the backers to train the best horses. Ruby Walsh is retained by Willie Mullins who always sends a strong team to the Cheltenham Festival from Ireland. Davy Russell rides many of Gordon Elliott’s leading Cheltenham Festival contenders so he has many winning chances. Paul Nicholls and Nicky Henderson share out their rides and Barry Geraghty and Nico de Boinville are given plenty of opportunities to ride winners.
The rules for the Cheltenham Festival leading trainer contest are the same as for the jockeys. The title is decided by the number of winners and in the case of a tie placed horse determine the outcome. The Trainer’s Championship in Britain and Ireland is based on the amount of prize money won so there is a different process at the Cheltenham Festival. In recent years jumps racing in Britain and Ireland has been dominated by a small number of trainers and this situation is replicated at the Cheltenham Festival. In 2018 Willie Mullins and Gordon Elliott trained the winners of 15 of the 28 races. Nicky Henderson is the winning most trainer at the Cheltenham Festival and his team combines quantity with quality. He trains leading contenders with three of the four main championship races at the 2018 Cheltenham Festival. Numerically, he is well represented but Paul Nicholls is not so successful after a great run at the start of the century. However, Mullins or Elliott are fancied to be the leading trainer at the Cheltenham Festival for several years. Colin Tizzard and Phillip Hobbs will have fancied runners but not in the quantity to challenge the two trainers from Ireland who have wealthy backers.

We've looked at it before, and here we are again, looking at what you (you!) have voted the best restaurants in Spokane. There have been changes in the list, particularly at the top, and... Well, just look for yourself.
Agree? Disagree? We're in both camps, and the only real way to affect this list is to vote yourself. Remember, it's your civic duty.

Mix together jerk seasoning, sugar, vinegar and soy sauce in a shallow dish. Place the turkey in the mixture and turn it to coat well. Cover the dish and chill it in the fridge to let it marinate for at least 1 hr or overnight.
Cut the turkey into narrow strips and thread it on to skewers, zigzagging it with some of the pineapple cubes.
Cook the skewers under a hot grill for about 8-10 mins, basting them with any leftover marinade, and turning them occasionally — make sure that they are thoroughly cooked after the marinade has been brushed on them, as it will contain raw meat juices.
Serve each turkey skewer with a jacket potato, that’s been split and a little Greek yogurt spooned into it, and some salad.
Tinned pineapple in juice can be used instead of fresh pineapple, but drain it well before using it.

Message to politicians and economists: Learning to deal with the world as it is, not as we want it to be.
Although politicians are “should-ists,” they don’t see the future; just get their way in the present.
“Should-ists” cannot be relied upon for their predictions of what will actually happen.
Monetarists and Keynesians, Democrats and Republicans, Roundheads and Cavaliers, Jets and Sharks — they’re all at the opposite ends of a particular spectrum. And they rarely agree on much, other than when and where the next fight is going to take place.
“Should-ists” are people who tell you what “should” happen in the future. Whatever it is that they are studying or involved in, it “should” happen because it’s been studied, its properties are known — and the benefits supposedly outweigh the costs.
Politicians are natural “should-ists,” of course. However, it’s not their job to see into the future, but to get their way in the present.
Better-educated economists also tend toward “should-ism.” In my experience, the better educated they are, the more “should-ist” they become.
Their rationale is simple: Why shouldn’t they have a sharper eye on the future, given the time they invested and intellect they ploughed into whatever it was they were studying along the way?
As for myself, I am definitely a “will-ist.” Equipped merely with a Bachelors’ Degree in Economics with Statistics, I became an economist at Morgan Grenfell & Co., Ltd. Right after I started my job, I was introduced in the morning meeting as the “expert” on France.
In that capacity, I was asked what I thought the Banque de France was going to do in the coming months. I got about as far as “Well, what they should be doing is” before the Head of Trading interrupted: “Stuart, we don’t care what they should be doing, just what they will be doing.” Well, let’s just say that I quickly learned my lesson.
Here is an example of a “will-ist” and a “should-ist” in action, just to help you spot the difference between the two.
A few weeks ago, UK Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne announced that he was contemplating the introduction of a balanced budget law with respect to the UK public finances.
Excited about my insight, I shot off an e-mail to a couple of senior journalists I know. “So we agree to something insane and, in return, we get something unimportant,” one shot back. He was definitely a “should-ist,” in case you are wondering about his intellectual preferences.
Here is why the contrast between the two groups matters a lot: Most “should-ists” can’t predict the future, for all their love and dedication to the subject matter at hand (or all of your money).
In statistical terms, they over-fit all the equations, but lose predictive power every step along the way. It’s the well-known fit-forecast trade-off in action, actually.
Of course, most of the world’s top policymakers tend to be very well-educated, with PhDs, even professorships to boot. In these fields, the ability to explain the past with clarity is a key criterion for employment.
In my view, there is just one little problem: It generally wrecks one’s ability to predict the future and particularly when tomorrow is different from today. No wonder most Central Bank and Finance Ministry predictions aren’t worth the paper they are written on.
Don’t get me wrong. The world would be a lot worse place without its fair share of “should-ists.” Just don’t rely on them for their predictions of what will actually happen. It’s not their fault. It’s just not their calling.

To realize our ambition as a full-service partner in e-commerce, we work in close cooperation with technology, marketing and operational partners and experts.
We are also active as a member in some prominent (official) company networks, aiming to develop and share (our) knowledge.
EMAKERS cooperates with selected technology and marketing agencies, on a project basis.
As technology or IT partner, you have a thorough knowledge of the processes and systems of your clients. In the area of e-commerce however, knowledge around digital client interaction is more important than knowledge of the technology.
As creative, communication or marketing agency, you’re responsible for the brand development and promotional campaigns of your clients. You possibly also develop websites, but the development and exploitation of a web shop requires specific technical and process knowledge, knowledge of data analysis or knowledge of interactive design.
As IT-, marketing or company advisor, you accompany clients in strategy and supplier selection. You must rely on someone else for the execution of your strategy.
As a partner, we gladly stand by your side for advice around the e-commerce component of your projects. When you as a partner bring along a new client, then we will of course offer you an attractive lead fee. EMAKERS chooses for active (regional) collaborations, in which co-marketing activities and knowledge sharing are also a part of the agreement.
EMAKERS is a full-service agency for e-commerce and digital management. We can carry out almost every type of sale or service project with internet as a key role for you, from A to Z.
We are always interested to talk about the options of a possible cooperation.
EMAKERS is a member of VOKA and Feweb.
VOKA is the most representative member organisation in Flanders and it represents more than 18.000 companies. VOKA organises, among others, a wide range of knowledge and networking activities. EMAKERS developed, on behalf of VOKA EMAKERS, an official VOKA course about e-commerce for producers.
Feweb is the Belgian federation of web agencies. If you opt for a member of Feweb, you opt for (more) certainty. All Feweb members respect a publically consultable code of conduct for the execution of their projects.
EMAKERS has a strategical cooperation with DistriMedia for the logistic services. Together with DistriMedia, EMAKERS aims to make a service that is normally only accessible for the well-known e-commerce giants also available for medium-sized enterprises.
Where possible, EMAKERS chooses for proven standard technology.

Are You there, God? It's me, Alece. I know I haven't been talking to You as much as I used to. I know I haven't in a long time. I'm sorry for that. It's just hard, you know?
You feel really far away, and life has sucked for a long time now, and I really just don't know what to say. Maybe that sounds silly, but it's true. My words ran out a long time ago---for myself, for others, and even for You.
I just don't know what to talk You about.
I know I'm supposed to be talking to You. I know You want me to. I know You're probably talking to me and I'm just not listening closely enough to hear what You're saying.
So I guess in some ways, talking to You just reminds me of how much I fall short. Again.
And I'm tired of not getting things right. Of not being enough. And so I avoid the reminder that comes with talking to You. I know that's a sucky thing to say, and an even suckier thing to feel. I'm sorry, God.
I know prayer isn't about changing Your mind, but changing my perspective. But I also know You say that prayer can change situations. And honestly, I'm wrestling with my theology on all that at the moment.
Faith isn't as easy as it was when I was a kid.
And now I question so much about how and what I used to believe... It feels like I don't know what is true and right and You anymore.
What good would come of telling You that I'm crying (again), and how much I hate it? Or that I feel stuck but don't have it in me to un-stuck myself? (And don't even really want to?) What good would it do to tell You how badly I feel, and how much my body hurts, and how tired I am of being exhausted and in pain? You already know all those things. And I'm weary of saying the same things over and over, even if they're just in my own head.
So yeah... I've grown quiet. Please don't take it personally. I'm really pretty quiet with everyone.
Opening up this space for you to scribble out your own honest, conversational heart-prayer.. Will you let your guard down and pray with me--- no holds barred?
