Dry sift hash is appreciated for its artisanal process and revered for its terpene profile and potency. Gelato specific strain blonde dry sift hash carries a very pungent smell on the nose and a very clean but rich and flavourful taste on the throat and mouth.
Gelato, also known as ‘Larry Bird’, is a slight indica dominant hybrid strain created by crossing the ever so famous Sunset Sherbert with Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies. It’s mouth watering aroma will tantalize even the most experienced users senses. It possesses a sweet, almost cake-like aroma, with notes of fresh lavender and blueberries. While beloved for its delectable flavor, Gelato is best known for its potent euphoric effects. Novice users take caution as this strain delivers a powerful cerebral rush within minutes of smoking. These potent cerebral effects won’t leave the user feeling sedated or locked to the couch; but instead, will give way to an increase in positive thinking and focused energy. As this euphoria gently builds, the body will slowly ease into a blissful state of relaxation, leaving the user feeling completely at peace. These powerful, yet balanced effects make Gelato the perfect strain for those looking to treat various conditions including muscle spasms, migraine headaches, chronic fatigue, and chronic pain due to inflammation.

Jose Mourinho revealed in Friday’s press conference that Fred had not been starting games due to Manchester United’s lack of stability at the back so far this season.
The Brazilian was the club’s only major signing of the summer, arriving from Shakhtar Donetsk for a fee of £52.7m in July.
Fred started Man United’s first three games of the season but, since then, has only managed five starts in all competitions.
Speaking at Carrington on Friday ahead of his side’s trip to Fulham, Mourinho emphasised that he did not feel comfortable using his new signing regularly until the defence tightened up.
Mourinho clearly took a great deal from those defeats to Brighton and Tottenham Hotspur in August, two games in which Fred started and United conceded three goals, their defence’s soft underbelly often painfully exposed.
Since then, as the defence toiled and changed every week, Mourinho has felt compelled to use Nemanja Matic at the base of midfield, often with either Ander Herrera or Marouane Fellaini as supplements.
For a manager whose primary footballing instincts are to protect and maintain balance, the creative Brazilian midfielder does not appear to be somebody Mourinho trusts at a time when his side is playing poorly and leaking goals.

Out of Home (OOH) is a thriving medium in the media landscape, particularly due to the continued rise of digital. There has been ample investment by media owners into this area, which has culminated into a strong Digital Out of Home (DOOH) weekly reach. The reasons for this digital renaissance include repeated findings that DOOH has a strong impact on campaign effectiveness. Recent analysis by the IPA indicated that adding digital to an OOH plan doubles long term business effects, while Ocean Neuroscience highlighted the 2.5 times greater impact of Full Motion to Static OOH.
The strength of DOOH is not just about inventory expansion however, but the revolution of dynamic capabilities. Outdoor can now target people on the right day, at the right time, in the best place. Ultimately, dynamic is a key tool in smarter planning. To make best use of it however, there needs to be a strong understanding of its contextual relevance to the target audience. Talon research has shown that when contextual copy is used, the intended audience are up to 55 per cent more likely to find the advertising relevant to them. Not only that, but it links to positive shifts in key metrics, behaviours and actions.
To achieve contextual relevance, brands need to understand their audience. The main way to do this is by learning more about their mindsets, rather than focusing purely on demographics. Mindsets have been explored across commuter, shopper and socialiser audience and by category.
Talon has undertaken a series of research which aims to understand the optimum day of week/time of day to reach people by category. So far, we’ve collected insights across a range of areas; Travel, Food and Drink, Technology, Retail and Finance. In terms of food and drink apps for example, we know that people are most likely to be using them in the afternoon or evening on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
But how does this inform our DOOH planning process? It provides us the key insights that while afternoon/ evenings at the weekend would reach the right audience (as expected), there is a key moment mid-week which can be tapped into with the right messaging.
It is important to note that many of these categories have a high performance across the week, so the research is not always disregarding any days or times. What Talon is aiming to do is identify those optimal moments where dynamic DOOH advertising would make the highest impact, or influence a change in mindset. With the travel category for example, planning and booking a holiday is consistent across the week, which means brands can successfully use OOH to target their audience at all times. However, the mindset data indicates that consumers are at the peak of planning their holiday earlier in the week, and booking it mid-week or at the weekend. This suggests that priming consumers with contextual messaging early in the week would promote call to action later on.
Advertisers – including brands like easyJet, Qantas and Virgin Holidays – have used digital OOH to tap into moments like pay day or Blue Monday. Tactical targeting can extend to smarter planning so we’re dialling up or optimising those moments where our behaviours are most heightened.
We can even divide the week into three key mindsets. Firstly, the week begins with financial planning, such as researching holidays, thinking healthily or actively using bank apps. Mid-week brings the need for a pick me up, whether that be personal inspiration with lifestyle apps or ordering a takeaway. Finally, the week wraps up with weekend entertainment. Some mindsets at this time are as you would expect (from alcohol consumption to booking a trip). However, we can also tap into trending or less obvious mindsets; for example, males are more likely to grocery shop later in the week; or banking apps receive a higher usage at the weekend, most probably to ensure there is enough funds for planned festivities.
Ultimately, by tapping into contrasting mindsets across the day of week with smarter or simply more relevant messaging, we hope to promote a more effective and long lasting use of DOOH for small and large brands alike.

CALGARY (Bloomberg) -- The threat of American tariffs on Canadian steel sent shivers through the northern nation’s oil industry, sparking fears of higher costs for everything from pipelines to drilling equipment.
U.S. President Donald Trump’s 25% levies on foreign steel and 10% duties on imported aluminum are a “troubling development” that will require close attention, said Nick Schultz, V.P. of pipeline regulation and general counsel for the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers.

First, follow the steps of J.K. Rowling, who lived in Porto several years, teaching at the University of Porto and found inspiration in the city for some aspects of the Harry Potter novel. For instance, the Lallo bookshop (or Livraria Lello & Irmão) resembles the magical Hogwards library and the lions from the University of Porto’s fountain were the inspirations for the Gryffindor lion.
Plus, the black Hogwards uniforms were modeled after the distinctive uniform of the students, the ones they wear on special occasions and only if they want.
It goes without saying it – as a huuuge Harry Potter fan, was pure magic to visit the Lallo bookshop. You first buy the ticket from across the street from a small truck. While waiting in line, you can admire the beautiful façade of the library, with Art Nouveau elements. It costs 3 euro to enter, but when you buy a book, the price of the ticket is discounted.
I purchased the book “Eat Portugal,” which leads to my next point.
“pingado” would be my favorite – espresso with a few drops of milk.
Café Majestic is the most beautiful location to stay for a coffee, but my favorite one was Café Guarany in the center, close to Aliados metro station.
I tried pasteis de nata in several places, but the most delicios ones I found in Pasteis Ribeira (close to Porto University). Best to serve sprinkled with icing sugar and cinnamon on top.
Most important, admire the architecture and the beautiful azulejos on houses, churches and restaurants. As I wrote in my article about Lisbon, everywhere in the Portuguese cities you see azulejos – the Portuguese and Spanish word of Arabic origins for painted tin-glazed ceramic tilework.
Start with the train station São Bento, a story of travel and time told using 20,000 azulejos. You definitely won’t find many other train stations as pretty as this stunning São Bento. Most tiles are beautifully hand-painted, telling literally a story about travelling.
Confession – I love train stations and here, I found myself staring for minutes at the details of this blue tiles.
Dreaming time – I am sure, when I will have my own house, my kitchen will be decorated with this colorful Portuguese ‘azulejos’.
Last, but not least, head to the salty ocean in the afternoon. It was one of the most beautiful sunsets I’ve seen last year (competing with the one in Dubrovnik).
Taking the tram 1 “Infante-Passeio Alegre,” which follows the river Douro, you will reach the ocean in Foz do Douro. I went on my last afternoon in Porto and was an amazing way to end my trip.
In the summer, for fresh fish, locals go also a bit further, to Matosinhos.
Originally, “to be salty” is the slang for ‘to be upset or angry’, usually when something doesn’t go our way. But to me, everything that is salty (tears or the sea) has a healing power. I went to Porto last autumn, when I wasn’t in the best place in my life. And being there last November helped me heal, organize my thoughts and put things into perspective.
Since Porto is the house to the Porto wines, you must cross the River Duoro on Dom Luis I bridge in Vila Nova de Gaia to visit the wine lodges and also have a different perspective on the city of Porto.
There is something about Portugal! I think I need to plan my return.

Shelbyville Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC) is a leading provider of medication-assisted treatment for individuals aged 18 and older who are battling an addiction to opioids. Our staff of nurses, physicians, and counselors assists patients in developing a customized plan of treatment that encompasses their unique treatment requirements and goals.
Methadone: As an opioid agonist, methadone is prescribed to eliminate cravings for continued opioid use while providing relief from the physical symptoms associated with withdrawal. Use of this medication allows patients to actively play a role in their recovery as methadone will not cause cognitive impairments or delays.
Subutex: Using buprenorphine as its active ingredient, Subutex is a partial opioid agonist-antagonist that works by blocking the effects that opioids have within the brain. Patients who are prescribed this medication will notice a decrease in cravings for continued opioid use while eliminating the physical discomforts of withdrawal.
Suboxone: Suboxone utilizes a combination of naloxone and buprenorphine, which provides relief from withdrawal symptoms while diminishing cravings for additional opioid use. Unlike other medications available in treatment, Suboxone will cause patients to experience symptoms of withdrawal should they attempt to abuse opioids throughout the course of treatment.
The specific medication prescribed, as well as the dosage administered, will be dependent upon the unique treatment requirements of each individual patient. Medications and dosages can be adjusted throughout the course of treatment if necessary.
Individual therapy sessions provide patients with the opportunity to work one-on-one with a counselor who is trained in the field of addiction, and who understands the complexities associated with this disease. These sessions are designed to address and treat the root causes of a patient’s addictive behaviors by preparing for a future that does not include the use of opioids. Individual sessions also provide an environment in which to openly work through any issues or questions that may arise during the course of treatment.
Group therapy sessions bring patients together with other individuals who are also receiving treatment for addiction. These counselor-led sessions promote open and honest communication between patients while allowing individuals to provide their peers with the support and encouragement that is required in order to progress in treatment.
The treatment available through Shelbyville Comprehensive Treatment Center is highly customizable in order to meet the requirements of each individual patient. By working closely with our compassionate team of medical and mental health experts, patients are given the support, treatment, and education that is required in order to progress towards a future without addiction. We are here to assist you or someone that you care for in taking the first steps towards recovery.

The Wellcome Trust has emerged as the charity paying the highest individual salary in the UK voluntary sector for the second successive time, research by Third Sector shows.
The charity’s annual accounts for the year to the end of September 2018 show that an unidentified member of its investment team was paid almost £3.2 during the course of the year.
The individual would have earned more in two working days than many front-line charity workers would receive for an entire year’s work.
The Wellcome Trust occupied the top spot in the previous Third Sector salary study, conducted in 2017, when an unidentified individual was paid just over £3m.
It says that its decision to directly employ investment experts meant it could generate better returns and incur lower costs than if it used external fund managers.
None of the charities in the top 10 conduct major public fundraising, with the top three rounded out by the London Clinic, which paid its highest earner almost £1.3m in 2017, and the Consumers’ Association, which awarded its outgoing chief executive Peter Vicary-Smith £825,000 in the year to the end of June 2018.
Many of the organisations in the top 25 are medical or scientific charities, such as the International Planned Parenthood Federation, Genome Research, the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine and the Royal Society of Chemistry.
The highest salary paid by Cancer Research UK, the UK’s largest fundraising charity, was £244,000, enough to put it in twenty-fourth place.
The lowest salary in the top 25 is £237,118, paid by the Nursing & Midwifery Council.
It is important to note that the salaries in the entire study are outliers when compared with the rest of the UK’s voluntary sector, where thousands of voluntary organisations operate on a shoestring and employ very few staff on relatively low wages.

This week, you'll learn how to write python programs that run under the command line. You'll also get more experience working with the BED file format.
The term scripting refers to writing programs designed to run as a series of steps, like a script in a play.
Most scripts are written to do a very specific, simple task, and often we link scripts into workflows, also called pipelines.
To write good scripts, you''ll continue to use the python interpreter, but when you run the scripts, you'll treat them just like any other UNIX command line utility.

Hello, I am rising sophomore at small liberal arts college in America. My first year was not very good. I had an overall Physics GPA of just 3.16, My initial plan was to go to Grad School but that prospect looks very dim to me now. Don't get me wrong, I still like Physics, It was a series of unlucky events and general carelessness that got me this grade. What do you guys think, should I carry on with Physics? Was anyone here in a similar situation?
I am a rising sophomore too, and I was in a similar situation when I took summer courses last year and got a 3.19 GPA. It definitely hindered my confidence, as I was never competent in high school (graduated with 3.0 GPA), and getting such grades to start off college with made me think that I am not good enough to do college level physics and math.
However, I worked really hard and disciplined myself last Fall and Spring, and earned really good grades. Though the initial drop in my GPA still hurts me, it was a good experience for me, as I it gave me confidence and taught me how to bounce back from failure.
Grad schools don't mind low grades in lower division general physics courses as long as you show competence in core upper division courses, and in fact, prefer a trend of improvement, so you shouldn't worry too much about it as I used to (a lot). I think studying over the summer and getting good grades your next semester will help you get back your confidence.

Our beautiful and sweet boy Bellissibolo Ettore moved to his new forever family in New York, America. We will miss him so much as we spent a fabulous 4 months together but we are sure his new family (with 3 cute children) LOVES him so much!
"Finally, we all wanted to say thank you for picking us to be Ettore's forever family. He is truly an angel and we cannot imagine our life without him. He has already brought a lot of joy to each one of us. Our youngest, Anthony Jr. has never been so excited about something and rushes to wake up and get ready or do his homework so that he can spend extra time with Ettore before heading off to school. Liliana really enjoys quiet moments with him brushing and cuddling him in the evenings. Our oldest Peter has such a special bond with Ettore as he was there to welcome him into America at the airport with Anthony Sr. And of course Anthony and I have him all day while the kiddies are at school.

Claim Refund on Life Insurance Policy?
How do I claim my refund on my life insurance policy that I have paid on for 15 years?
You don't get a "refund" from your life insurance policy for not dying.
You might have some cash value that has built up over time inside your life insurance policy you can take out as a loan, but you'll have to call the life insurance company and ask if there is any cash value inside your policy.
Term life insurance does not build cash value, but permanent life insurance plans may have some cash value inside the policy.
So, it depends on what type of life insurance plan you have, an how long you have owned the policy and paid premiums. The longer you have paid premiums on a permanent life insurance policy, the more money there may be available.
I am canceling my term life insurance, will I get a refund?
Potentially advanced premiums may be returned to you. For instance, if you pay for a full year ahead of time, but you want to cancel the policy after just a few months. This would be considered a pro-rata refund of premiums paid in advance.
But, some life insurance companies don't refund those insurance premiums.
In addition, if you bought a return of premium term life insurance policy you may get some money back if you outlive the term of your life insurance coverage.
For instance, if you have a 5 year return of premium term life policy and outlive the 5 years, you would get most of the premiums back that you had paid for the life insurance coverage.
Also, most life insurance companpolicies will return the premium you have paid if you cancel the life insurance policy within the first 15 to 30 days of buying the coverage.
Otherwise, you get no money back when you cancel a term life insurance policy.
However, you should review the cancellation terms in your policy, and discuss any return of premium with your agent or life insurance company before canceling your policy.

Abstract: In his now (in)famous pamphlet "Conspiracy as Governance" Julian Assange (JA) argues about the need for leaking as an efficient way to destroy "unjust" groups as the neo-feudalistic ones - luring the conspiracy theory leaning hacker community into his belief system. Eventually, JA used a biologistic argument on the benefits and drawbacks that uncontrolled leaking might pose for "just" and "unjust" systems, arriving at the conclusion that "unjust" systems are hurt more and thus will be less viable, essentially being destroyed by more "just" systems. While an innovative proposal, the underlying assumptions on complexity, network theory, and especially the evolutionary perspectives were never critically assessed. Some blogs and media raised questions on details and potential threats to innocent bystanders. Still, fundamental problems with the philosophy were never addressed. This paper argues against the general validity of such theories. In particular, we will refute some of the biologistic arguments. Theoretical biology has long ago pointed out the hidden complexity in evolutionary processes and as such the envisioned "leaking revolution" might be a limited artifact: there might even arise situations where the leaking envisioned and encouraged by Wikileaks and the like can actually strengthen some "conspiracies". In this paper I will describe some research questions, that should be answered before given the “leaking philosophy” an unconditioned “thumbs-up”. Empirically, for example, a potential strengthening is illustrated by the rise of a 'neo-feudalistic economy', which is linked closely to the paradigm of "intellectual property" as it is to the security-financial-political complex. The players have effectively created a closed network or a "conspiracy" and might be resilient towards Wikileaks-like attacks. The paper concludes with an alternative to that proposal; in particular, a way to deal with the 'conspiracy' that might be coined the rise of the neo-feudalistic society (which in itself is a self-sustainable, self-amplifying feedback loop, not necessarily a conscious conspiracy).

The first day of The Festival features the most important hurdle race of the season, the Stan James Champion Hurdle. The 2011 victor, Hurricane Fly reclaimed his title in last season’s renewal when beating Rock On Ruby, who won the race in 2012. In doing so, Hurricane Fly became the first horse in 38 years to reclaim the Champion Hurdle Trophy.
Six other cracking races and the unique first day atmosphere make this one of the sporting highlights of the year. Including the OLBG Mares Hurdle, won for the last five years by Quevega, who might try and make it six on the trot at the 2014 Festival – a phenomenal achievement.
Gates open at 10.30am, with the first race each day at 1.30pm and the last race each day at 5.15pm.

If DARPA's Director Regina Dugan hadn't already admitted that the agency is clueless about how to secure cyberspace, the choice of Richard Clarke as a speaker certainly made that clear. Of all the experts out there, Mr. Clarke has provided some of the worst advice that I've ever heard when it comes to specific cyber-based threats and remediations.
Director Dugan won't find a solution to her problem by speaking to more of the same people that the agency always speaks with. Einstein's oft-repeated definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. The director should stop speaking to hackers, crackers, grey hats, black hats, white hats, and the cyber industrial complex in general. DARPA has done that for years without success. If the director wants a different result, she needs to approach the problem in a completely different way. In fact, I recommend that this problem be completely re-framed. Just like money problems are never about money, and obesity problems are never about food (they both stem from negative belief systems that we've learned as children and reinforced as adults), protecting data is not about cyber security. It's about understanding how we take care of our valuable possessions in the physical world and transferring that understanding to comparable models in the virtual world.
Instead of inviting hackers, Director Dugan should invite experts in personal security like Gavin De Becker or my friend Roderick Jones who understand how to protect high value individuals against multiple unknown attackers. She should invite farmers who have to defend their crops against an unpredictable weather system. Or corner a few MDs at the Centers for Disease Control to learn how virulent bacteria consistently beat the body's immune system. The bottom line here is that we must MUST find a way to break free of the grip that the information security industry has on all things cyber because it is a failure from top to bottom.
I doubt that anyone from DARPA will take this post to heart but I'm convinced that it's the right way to proceed. We're planning a second Suits and Spooks conference for Washington DC this Spring. Perhaps that will be the time to bring farmers, doctors, and personal security specialists together to find some common sense solutions and apply an entirely different mindset to the current cyber-security insanity.
You're going in *exactly* the wrong direction here: "It's about understanding how we take care of our valuable possessions in the physical world and transferring that understanding to comparable models in the virtual world."
Continuing to try to apply flesh and bones defensive concepts will only continue to result in measures which do more to make us feel safe than they do to actually provide security. Whether people like it or not, the networked cyber-world is significantly different than our physical world. Defensive strategies developed for the physical world can only apply in situations where the two worlds are the same. That's not nearly as often as most people would like.
You don't stop seeing doctors because one of them's a complete idiot, you don't destroy all your crops because one farmer failed to defend his, and you don't reject all of modern physics because they failed to predict the latest quantum-insanity properly.
With all that said, there are vastly more quack "cyber security experts" than there are individuals who actually understand that world. Thus, what I would recommend DARPA et al focus on is not "finding some other kind of expert" but rather finding an actual cyber security expert in the first place.
Thanks for the comment, Rob, however the examples which you provided are examples of failed cybersecurity processes. None of them relate to what I tried to convey in my post; that the present cybersecurity model is hopelessly flawed; that cyberspace is intrinsically tied to physical space; and that we need to start talking to people with completely different but relate-able skill sets in physical space in the hope of finding inspiration for a new security model that can transfer over. Or as an InfoSec Twitter friend named it - an "integrated multi-disciplinary approach".
An "integrated multi-disciplinary approach" sounds way too much like "quick! Throw spheres on that venn diagram - we've got to cover this cyber-thing!"
Different points of view are valuable and can be incredibly helpful. However, you can no more expect a farmer, doctor, sailor, ship-builder, and hunter team to come up with intel's next chipset than you can the same group come up with a valuable cyber-defense strategy. That team can add value by chatting with intel's engineers and suggesting enough oddly useless stuff that a piece of it triggers a new approach in one of the engineer's minds. But what's lacking right now is the equivalent of intel's team of engineers, not the multiple viewpoints.
As a somewhat related aside, thoughts that cyberspace is intrinsically tied to physical space are inaccurate at best. Before you answer with talk of servers and such, think on two things: quantum entanglement, and the fact that you can go and "get" a file which does not exist anywhere except on your hard drive after you've "gotten" it.
Trans disciplinary approach rather than multi disciplinary, as you have mentioned on this blog few moths above. It is possible to exist real (i) in cyber world even square of -1 is not real in material world. I have been thinking on it for several years. Trust must be invented in cyber space. But, does states need it really? Every state want to control something (on west, it is property of any kind, on east it is ideological informations). But, vice versa can be to. Can you imagine, for example, situation if Iranian government would help or initiate new OWS movement in US, like US did it in Green revolution in 2007? There is new non govermental force in the Wold, too, people force. Soft or Smart power is not US property. Informations can be monitored effectively, and they will be, but ideas are much harder to control. One day machines will produce all software and protocols and there will not be malicious code like now, but what about thoughts, dissatisfaction or anger?
I've had similar thoughts on interdisciplinary approaches to the problem for quite some time now. That is why I am trying to develop SNA skills and I have returned to studying Wiener's Cybernetics and Turchin's "The Phenomenon Of Science". Maybe a Cybernetic approach will help, especially decison makers. And if we Google (and read) "How Complexx Systems Fail" we will find out that it was written by an MD. We try to build, operate, secure and defend complex systems. We must understand how they fail.
Great point about the authorship of "How Complex Systems Fail"! Thanks for adding to the post, Adam.
I don't want to be dull, but this talk here is interesting. Socio-technical systems are even more complex than social systems. They can not be maintained if we are not able to make an appropriate mathematical (technical) model. This is why we must use some kind of reductionism. And there is a catch, because it is almost impossible. Who can predict human behavior? So, we need to reduce principles, not processes. How? Russian TRIZ (or TIPS - Theory of inventive problem solving) maybe can be a good example. Another question is what you want to achieve. If DARPA announce they do not know how to do something, it doesn't mean they really do not know. Because of his budget. We know only that human ecosystem on Earth is developing more and faster, not how to predict it. Commentators from USA often make a big mistake. US usually do not defend itself but go about offense on others. Be honest, N. Korea, Libya, Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, anonymous??!, even Iran, China, Russia are not real national treats to USA. Reverse is not true. Can we seriously talk about cyber struggle between USA and N.Korea? I was wondering is it possible to read Mr. Clarke book example how Akamai defends White House site from N. Korea attack and that was a cyber attack!? (If so, look at CIA Fact book about Korean cyber capacity. So, we can talk seriously only about global security, how to preserve Internet, or how to achieve US military goals against rest of the world. Look in history what destroyed all former empires. Lack of technology or social reasons? World needs new conflict approach which can manage highly asymmetric warfare (one nuke is danger as a thousand, one virus is danger as many, one good cyber attack is effective like a million).
Interesting and great insights. A problem with talking with the usual tech folks is spiraling into a path, always seeing problems, not seeing real breakthroughs or new paths.
While I like the talk-with-hacker approaches (maybe because I am somewhere in the hacker communities), a big problem is the limited scope of hackers in the conversations. It appears rather limited. Of course, the hackers are ones willing to talk with the industry and the Feds. Many aren't for a wide assortments of reasons. Also, the conversation with the suits, I perceive, alters what's said by some hackers. Part of human factors affecting communications across groups, especially when one of the group includes governmental authorities.
I am glad that the post included a suggestion to get medical and microbiology specialists in the security discussions.
Yes, microbes have fascinating defences and means of adapting to new threats, including antibiotics. Bacteria also have means of sharing their "lessons learned" via plasmid transfer. At the same time, organisms that can be affected by microbes develop their defences. Interesting thing about all this is that rarely one side totally wipes out the other. Bacterial impact upon behaviours, bioregulators, etc. Fascinating stuff that many people in the technology fields may miss.
Jonathan, thanks for your comments. Can you think of anyone in the medical field whose research revolutionized the way that we treat illnesses (someone current)?

I Arrive Way To Late To Join The Chase Party.

Looking Northwest At The Storm From Just West Of Lakewood.
After leaving work and arriving back in Carlsbad I had to pay my dentist a visit and get a cracked tooth fitted for a crown. By the time I finished up there and was able to head north of Carlsbad to Rock Daisy Road northwest of town where I shot the above photo I was just way too late to the party to see anything decent. Such is storm chasing...sometimes you get really lucky but many times not so.
Storm Prediction Center (SPC) Storm Reports.
Watching radar Wednesday afternoon it was amazing how many Storm Chasers had once again converged on the Supercells blowing up in the Picahco-Hondo area 32 miles west of Roswell as the crow flies and 26 miles east of Ruidoso. This is not an area that you would normally want to go storm chasing...at least if you are hoping to see a tornado. Not at the 6,000' elevation! But a couple of Supercell Thunderstorms did in fact produce several tornadoes in that area that were verified by Storm Chasers.
Large Blocky Wall Cloud With A Tail Cloud.
After leaving work at the Gas Plant that I am employed at west of Orla, Texas in northern Culberson County I headed west down FM Rd 652 to the junction of US Hwy 62/180 at the New Mexico/Texas State Line southwest of Carlsbad. I was watching a Supercell Thunderstorm that had formed near Queen as I traveled north back to Carlsbad. I was about 5 miles southwest of Whites City when I snapped the photo above of the blocky Wall Cloud and associated tail cloud. It was some 16 miles (as the crow flies) west of me near Queen. I never did see the Wall Cloud rotate in part because my view of its base was partially obscured by the ridge line and it soon became rain wrapped.
GR2Analyst View Of The Storm.
Valid At 2:38 PM MDT.
Cross Section View Of The Storm At 2:38 PM MDT.
Although the storm displayed the classic "bird view" on radar it was just too far away for a good sampling using the Storm Relative Velocity Mode (SRV). This severe thunderstorm produced ping pong ball size hail (1.5" in diameter) 7 miles north-northeast of Queen at 2:31 PM MDT. It also produced golf ball size hail (1.75" in diameter) in Queen at 3:05 PM MDT. This storm topped out at about 56,000'.
Vicious Hail Storm Damages Vehicles West Of Orla, TX.
I Shot These On Thursday, May 24, 2018.
My Co-Workers Truck The Morning After He Got Caught In The Hail Storm.
One of my co-workers had the misfortune to get caught in a vicious hail storm as it was crossing Farm Market Road 652 about 31 miles west of Orla, Texas in northern Culberson County Wednesday afternoon. The hail put numerous dents on his trucks hood and several on the sides of the truck and cracked his windshield. He noted that about 20 other vehicles had the same fate as they all pulled over and faced to the north trying to limit the hail damage.
Base Reflictivity Scan At 3:13 PM MDT/4:13 PM CDT.
Cross Section Scan At 3:13 PM MDT/4:13 PM CDT.
Volume Scan At 3:13 PM MDT/4:13 PM CDT.
Radar was estimating the hail size in the core of this storm to be 2 inches and diameter and that's what he reported to me when he called me. Radar tops on this storm topped out at 60,000'. I circled the approximate location where he was when the core of the storm passed over FM 652.

An old Chinese proverb say: To nurture one’s life and health, is mainly accomplished by cultivating one’s mind. If the mind is calm and clear, the spirit is in a pure and healthy world, if the spirit is in a healthy world, how can the illness enter you?
We are luckily to be living in this world now, and enjoy all life is offering, and definitely will hope to enjoy longer. We all acknowledge that we are not only living in a world where people simply work for gaining the basic conditions of food and shelter, but a world in which human health and longevity is an integral part of our personal identity and evolutionary journey, that leads to a healthy, natural retuning to the original birth. It is our strong belief set us as practitioners of ancient Chinese ideology of life nurturing, or Yang Sheng, 养生，– a practical method with many aspects of taking care of our daily life in a natural way that focus on mind, body, and spiritual health.
Undoubtedly, a healthy person exercises their body, no matter whether taking eastern or western ways. To further understanding life nurturing, or Yang Sheng, 养生, is to understand the Chinese health philosophy that heavily involves in mental and spiritual health as an important components of holistic health. Being healthy, can be explained with Chinese Yang Sheng, is to positively deal with life and health conditions, and adjusted them according the change of life to keep a greater balance.
Nurturing life is cultivating one’s mind. This concept is not only to the point that, without a healthy mind/spirit, one can’t have a complete healthy life, and an unbalanced physiological doesn’t do life any good favor, but also regards human being’s achievement and enjoyment is far beyond satisfaction of current surroundings and technologies. It is its unlimited potential that continuously expressed by more powerful creativity that serve a better livings of the world – these all comes from our creativity of the mind – the power house. So, to nurturer the mind, to keep the psychological balance is the foundation to have a happy, healthy, and creative life.
We all know the mind and the emotion are heavily affected to the health. Practically, some truths are always very clearly exhibited the deep connection between the mind, spiritual and the physical body. For instance, when someone who is sad, on the emotional level, will experiences fatigue, a loss of energy and/or decreased appetite on the physical level; if the heart/mind is unbalanced, one cannot overcomes the worry or the nervous, or living with the past; on spiritual level, they feel out of touch with their true self and disconnected from the universe. when spiritually someone feel lost and unbalanced, may cause them to be moody and discontented with life, perhaps grow emotionally distant from their loved ones and on the physical level they may experience anger and stress We don’t define a healthy person is the one always in bad mood or negative thinking, do we?
On the other hand, the power and high spiritual level of the mind will be an extremely helpful asset for anyone living with a chronic health condition. You may not be able to cure your illness, but a stronger mind and a healthier spirit can help you feel better, cope with pain, symptoms, limits and daily challenges, to continue to find meaning and purpose in life and live your life as just full as a physically healthy person. And, when life gets really rough, it’s the mind gives us the strength to carry on.
How do we nurture and cultivate our mind/spirit into a heather, and more powerful stage? The power of the mind comes from calmness and awareness. The grounding of the mind should be solid and stable, which also is the base for focus and creativity. Gentle Qi gong, Tai Ji Quan form exercise, and meditation, in general, are highly involved in mind training exercises, which make major differences from only muscle and strengthening gaining exercise, not to mention their coordinated physical motion is the key, which builds a new relationship between the body and the mind – slow but focused. Through many repetition of these Qi flow throughout the meridian channels exercises calms one’s mind; this calmness of the mind develops a great focus which able us to look ourselves from inside, and find our central stillness and clearness that lead to a positive way of thinking, realizing, acceptance, and control of life’s balance. Physically, if the mind is calm, it can clearly feel and very aware about what’s going on, in order to prevent from getting sick, or catch any illness in a very early stage to be taken care of with more and better choices for the treatments.
Purposely take more breaks to let the brain/mind rest from anything you do in your every busy day; this will make you realize how busy your mind is, even on your weekend or vacations! Too busy creates a kind of tension over time, and the tensed mind needs to rest to maintain the energy flow.
Take some quiet times to clear and empty the thoughts. You can be in any physical position, such as standing, sitting, lying down –they all have to feel comfortable without any tension or strength, and it is better if you can keep your spine straight but relaxed. Then, try not to think or focus on anything. At the very beginning, this quiet time may actually bring up a lot of thoughts or emotions. Try to fade them out little by little, and ignore any disturbance from your surroundings, no matter what they are. For many people, it is not so easy to be calm inside of their mind, but just like other things in life – if you work constantly, you’ll harvest from the seeds you originally plant.
Let’s also nurture the mind with healthy food and water to give nutrition to support the activity of our brain/mind that wishes, dreams, and creates!
Wishing everyone great health and happy holidays!

On October 26, I headed to Maejima with the stone that was loaded in my car three days ago in Sekigahara. Henceforth, my mother and I would spend a little over two months making two trips a month to Maejima.
engineering and construction, is maneuvering the backhoe.
Upon my arrival in Maejima Camp, I was greeted with quite a surprising sight of a backhoe lifting up a large block of granite about to be loaded onto the back of a pickup truck. In Maejima, there is an abandoned quarry, stones from which were used on the wall of Osaka Castle. There are quite splendid pieces of granite on the grounds of the camp as well, so I had requested to use one of them. Mr. Motohama had selected one that would be appropriate for the base stone of the memorial. So on that sunny autumn day, I got to watch the base stone being set up on the ground.
Then it was time to carry the marble to the second floor of the cafeteria building, where I would be working. Maejima Camp's large cafeteria was to become my workspace. The stone on a wheeled platform was brought safely to the second floor using a dumbwaiter. A breathtaking view of the islands and the Seto Inland Sea unfolded before me from the balcony of the cafeteria. I was to begin working in front of this ever-changing scenery.
The stone was set at the corner of the cafeteria, closest to the Hill of Prayers. With Mr.
After tracing the front design onto the stone, I started working on the cross design. The stone was laid flat, which was fine until I finished carving the cross. However, I was anxious about the process that would follow. In order to v-cut letters on a stone, the stone is normally set up on an easel, but obviously I was not going to be able to work on the easel that I usually use. Thinking that it would somehow work out, I had postponed addressing the issue. That day, an islander who had heard of the memorial, offered to make a stable platform that would serve as an easel.
For the cross design, my plan was to carve the surrounding area of the cross a few millimeters deep, and then cut radially. It took me two and a half days to carve the area surrounding the cross and four more days to finish the v-cut radially. The streaming light from the window made the stone sparkle so beautifully that my heart was filled with excitement every moment despite the physical fatigue.
set up on the easel. The stone is still on a table.
During the consecutive holidays in November, the stone was just about ready to be placed on the easel. A group of graduates of Keimei Gakuin was visiting Maejima Camp. They lent us their hand in moving the piece onto the easel. So many people were involved from the day that the President of the school kindly agreed to its erection to the day of the completion of the memorial.
My days started with my arrival at my workspace at 8:30 am, going home for a lunch break, and working again until around 5:30pm. Maejima Camp is located on a hill, and as I mentioned earlier, I worked on the second floor of a building, right beside the Hill of Prayers. It is hard to express in words the contentment I felt seeing the view from the balcony whenever I stood there almost once every hour for a break. I think it was not just due to the scenery that unfolded before my eyes, but also everything there, such as the pouring sunlight or the breeze. The joy I felt standing on that balcony whilst I worked on the memorial was almost magical.
Normally, a letter cutter will begin carving letters from bottom left. For this memorial, that was the small-sized capital M of "MATTHEW". Engraving small-sized letters has its share of difficulties, but compared with the lines on the cross, the amount of carving needed was much smaller. I was ready to begin the body text soon after, and the initial letter was the letter W on the bottom left. Another problem arose as soon as I started carving, and that was the light. While the stone was laid flat, I had enough sunlight and I could also place a lamp where it did not get in my way. However, the situation changed once I started working on the easel. The wall that supported the easel stood in front of me, so I needed a lamp even during the day. I had to look for something that I could clip the light onto at the right height and place so that it did not stand in the way of my arm moving in all directions while I worked. Then, the lamp that I had did not provide enough light in late afternoons so I needed something extra. I started to look around, and there it was―a floodlight hooked to the railing of the balcony. It not only provided more light, but it was warm, which was convenient as winter was approaching.
I just remembered another episode about lighting. For my convenience while hand carving, I always had the light falling from the upper-left direction. I suddenly realized that I would not be seeing the stone like I was seeing then after the memorial was installed because I was seeing the shadow with the light source from the left side while I carved. The memorial was to be erected on the Hill of Prayers so that the shadows on the letters would be created by midafternoon sunlight falling from the right side. It was somewhat dramatic to think that I was getting to see something that was only possible for a limited time, but I also realized that I needed to check how the stone will look with the light source from the right-hand side.
I started engraving the letter W of the body text, and immediately it was like being punched in the face. I thought to myself, "It sure does take a lot of time to engrave just one big letter, and W is like carving two V's!" However, tackling a difficult letter in the beginning seemed to make the following task a bit easier. Three letters were the most that I could cut in a day, but seeing a steady progress gave me a sense of accomplishment each day. It took eight days to finish the body text, and it was completed on December 4. I always feel that it is difficult to know when to stop with letter cutting. The memorial was no exception, and I realized once again, giving up in a good way (knowing when to let go) is important.
A rubbing is made after most of the inscription is done to check and work on the details.
Three rubbings were made to make adjustments for the main text.
As we were approaching winter solstice, it was pitch dark around the time I finished a day's work. In a considerably large space, the space with the stone seemed to glow, and just about the only sound to be heard was the occasional mooing of cows in the distance. Posting pictures and explanation in both Japanese and English (although on some days I was too tired to add an English translation) about my daily progress on social networking sites became my routine. It was encouraging to find that many people in Japan and overseas were checking and commenting on them. I once received a question from abroad, "Are you a Christian?" I am not. This religious concept may be difficult for non-Japanese people to understand, but although I grew up in a Buddhist home, my grandparents were Christians and we would go to church on Sundays and sing hymns at home. I chose this Scripture mainly because Keimei Gakuin offers education based on Christian principles and the verse expressed the school's spirit. However, the words also mirrored my father's way of life. I posted a pretty simple reply, but I remember feeling relieved when I saw that my reply was "liked".
The front is finished. Onto the reverse side.
I was in Maejima to work on the final stages of letter cutting on December 27. The President and other relevant people of Keimei Gakuin were visiting the camp that day. While they walked around the camp ground, they were also going to see the progress of the memorial, and there was one problem with this. I had already finished the front side so the reverse side was facing front. I felt that it was a shame that they were going to see only the small letters on the back side. I decided to make a booklet with pictures that I had been taking. It was a simply-made booklet showing in a chronological order the first stages up to the completion of the main inscription, and titled Toward the Light, comparing the engraved text itself to myself facing the stone with the light falling on it while I worked. This booklet is now in the library of Keimei Gakuin.
I had aimed to finish before the end of the year, but it was actually January 2, after New Year's holidays, when the memorial was completed. I had spent 25 days in the workplace, and worked for about 150 hours. The day after the letter cutting was done, the stone was removed from the easel, where it had stayed unexposed to natural light, to a platform with wheels and placed by the window. I felt the true value of letter cutting when I finally saw how the sunlight created sharp definition of light and shadow on the inscription.
from light falling from different directions were thoroughly enjoyable.
I was thankful for President Ozaki's suggestion that we have an unveiling ceremony for our donation of the memorial to the school. The school holds a "Keimei Gakuin Maejima Camp Appreciation Day" each year and invites residents of Ushimado and Maejima to the facility. The event would be on March 26, 2016, and the memorial was to be unveiled then. The climax of the remaining process was the installation of the memorial.
The memorial was set up on the base stone on this chilly day. I was most interested to see how this was going to be done. The base was already cut in a size appropriate for the memorial with two metal rods fixed in place. Mr. Motohama was in charge of all the preparation, planning, and supervision of the installation.
Kuboki, who along with Mr. Ikushima was a great support from the beginning.
Mr. Motohama making necessary arrangements of the installation.
Two holes were drilled into the memorial also.
First, the installation was simulated. After trials of lifting it using a piece of lumber and a forklift, it was decided that two strong men would carry the memorial using a crowbar and gradually set the stone down until the holes in it fit the metal rods on the base stone.
Onto the actual installation. An adhesive was applied to both the base stone and the memorial, and the memorial was set on the rods. Then, before the adhesive dried completely, a level guide was used to check the position and a wooden frame to deftly install the monument. Before we had any time to admire it, a blue tarp covered the memorial. Since the stone was still unprotected, it needed to be protected against rain or salt breeze until the adhesive dried completely and the memorial and base stone glued together. This all happened on a cold day with flurry of snow.
I visited Maejima on February 16, around the time that seemed relatively warm and we would be having sunny days. The stone needed to be washed as the carved letters still had stone dust inside of them. A toothbrush was used to remove the dust. Then after letting the stone dry for a few days, a coating agent was applied. Marble is vulnerable to acids, and we were also worried about freezing damage during winter. It seems that applying coating agents is uncommon in the West, but the location by the sea and the fact that Japan gets a lot of rain were taken into consideration.
to be the president of a paint company.
The cherry blossoms were beginning to bloom on the day of "Keimei Gakuin Maejima Camp Appreciation Day". The unveiling ceremony of the memorial took place from 5 o'clock in the afternoon before dinner. There was an opening prayer and sermon by the school's chaplain, and then the unveiling ceremony began attended by the mayor of Setouchi City. The school also presented us with letters of appreciation. This was just one year after my father passed away, and just six months after I approached Keimei Gakuin about donating a memorial. So many people were so kind to lend their helping hands. There were developments that were accidental or coincidental, all of which seemed like they were led by an invisible power.
So this is how the memorial became a part of the landscape of the Hill of Prayers. My father must have been watching us from above with his shy smile, with hopes that many people will visit the memorial and that it will warmly watch over them in return.
Last but not least, President Ozaki kindly suggested that we add a plate that briefly explains what the memorial is about and what kind of a person my father was. I gathered my courage and thoughts to come up with a short passage. I would like to close this story with a photograph of the plate.
firsthand the value of friendship and the spirit of service. He lived out his life in gratitude.
The memorial stands here on the Hill of Prayers in loving memory of him.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Keimei Gakuin, everyone in Ushimado and Maejima, and anyone who provided me with support.

When I first moved to the Sydney suburb of Erskineville, it was a rundown, rough area full of life. It was also one of the cheapest places to live (it’s certainly not now!). Although it has changed a lot, I am glad to say some of the eccentric characters are still here, and a few more have arrived. I walk from Erskineville to my studio in St Peters every day. This walk is often spent thinking about what I am working on. What I see around me often feeds into what I am painting.

Was Babe Ruth the greatest home run hitter of all time? It could be a fact since.
he is second all-time on the careers home run list. People can have conversations and .
lectures about if he is or isn't. But what these doctors are researching is not his baseball.

Mr. Johanson and Mr. Holmes who probably had no interest in the batting .
averages of Babe Ruth. It didn't matter if he had a .200 or . 500 average. They took.
Ruth into a great laboratory of the Columbia University. Figuratively, they took him.
apart, watched the wheels go around; analyzed his brain, his eye, his ear, his muscles;.
studied how these worked together; reassembled him, and announced the exact reasons.
for his supremacy as a batter and a ball player. This will make a model for the .

Baseball sends out many scouts to look over the country and locate talent. They.
call these scouts "Ivory hunters". If club owners take a hint from the Ruth experiments.

You would have to eat an excessive amount of food because the vitamin quality of the food we eat is low. This is mainly due to over-farmed, depleted soil.
Fast food and processed food is especially low in nutrient value.
A busy lifestyle with an inordinate amount of stress, requires more vitamins and nutrients to keep you healthy, and to support your immune system so you don’t get sick.
It is important to eat a healthy diet with as much nutritional value as possible, free of empty calories, sugars, and processed foods. But, in order to fill in the nutritional gaps, experts recommend supplementing with extra vitamins and minerals.
Much of the food we buy today is processed, or grown in poor soil and, if not organic, the crops are sprayed with pollutants, which adversely affects the nutritional value.
According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, we should consume between five (5) and 13 servings of fruits and vegetables each day. This kind of diet is, more likely than not, difficult for the average person to maintain. Therefore, supplementation is essential for good health.
Level 1 Therapeutics has done their due diligence and stays up on current research for doctors and their patients, so they can feel comfortable knowing they are getting the best quality supplements.
Level 1 Therapeutics knows that a supplement containing phytonutrients and other co-factors provides more benefits than those that are synthetically produced. A co-factor makes the elements more easily available to your body, and phytonutrients are those found in organically grown plants.
Since our bodies are unable to absorb synthetic nutrients as efficiently as natural ones, synthetic supplements are not the best.
For specific advice about which supplements to take, it is always advisable to ask your healthcare provider.

NSBA would like to thank the House Committee on Small Business for their stewardship of legislation to reauthorize the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs.
Later today, the House Small Business Committee is scheduled to mark-up the first of several bills introduced aimed at increasing small business participation in the federal contracting marketplace.
Last week, the House Financial Services Committee approved the SEC Small Business Advocate Act of 2015 which would create the Office of the Small Business Advocate within the SEC.
NSBA today released the 2015 Small Business Health Care Survey which shows businesses continue to face huge cost increases and struggle to navigate significant confusion and complexity under the Affordable Care Act.
Last week, the House Education and the Workforce Committee approved legislation (H.R. 3459) that would roll back the NLRB's decision on redefining "joint employer" which would result in drastically expanded union reach.
NSBA is seeking small-business input on new overtime rules which will massively increase the salary threshold below which all employees must be paid overtime, and could make changes to the so-called “duties test”.
There are currently no job openings at NSBA. Please check back again soon.

In many major national stories (Katrina, Iraq, etc) there is an untold rural angle. The national jump in gas prices is no different. In fact, for many rural families the problem is compounded by longer than typical drives and lower than typical incomes.
The Christian Science Monitor picks up the story of doctor visits forgone, meals skipped and presents unbought as a result of rising gas prices in the rural United States.
“I don’t monitor my health condition as well as I should because I just can’t afford to get there,” Ms. Murphy says. Meanwhile, she’s cut down to one meal per day and has warned her children to expect nothing under the Christmas tree this year.
Ms. Murphy’s quiet struggle plays out far from the public eye. Yet her story is hardly unique in rural America, where wages languish 25 percent below those in urban areas and private transportation is more central to daily life. And with winter just around the corner, costly trade-offs are fast becoming a way of life in places where schools, jobs, and the nearest stores all require a lengthy trip behind the wheel.
A recently released study (pdf) by the Consumer Federation of America reports that households earning less than $15,000 are now spending in excess of 10% of their income on gasoline. Add to that the fact that rural households already spend 50% more on gasoline than their uban counterparts (due to longer drives), and it becomes easy to see that the millions of rural households living in poverty end up significantly more disatvantaged than others.

Imagine - her face lighting up when she sees you - opening a little wooden box, and you going down on one knee, in a perfect spot, with an utterly jaw-dropping backdrop of Edinburgh City, or an old Scottish Castle.
And then, enjoying the moment for a few minutes, and then you point out the photographer in the distance, who captured it all on camera. The intimate moment, her smile, her surprise and the deep emotion, in a perfect place!
Regardless if you are travelling to Scotland, or if you live here: there are so many beautiful spots in the city for popping the most important question! But a perfect outcome requires a little bit of planning, and that’s where I come in - your secret proposal agent!
I have had the honour of taking photographs of several proposals and every time I was the "secret agent" on location, the person to ask for ideas, location suggestions, timings, weather and so on.
A few things to bear in mind: If you want to have your proposal story captured beautifully on camera, get in touch as soon as you start planning. I can help you with location suggestions in or around Edinburgh, or even with a beautiful historic castle as a backdrop.
If you are not familiar with Edinburgh, but have seen photographs, I can give you first-hand information about the locations. I have photographed proposals on Edinburgh’s Calton Hill, in Edinburgh Dean Village, and the Royal Botanic Gardens.
When I planned a recent proposal for the end of December 2017 on Calton Hill, we arranged for a 12 PM proposal near the monument. The lovely now-groom from Boston, US contacted me months ago, and suggested Calton Hill. I sent him aerial photographs outlining the perfect spot for him and his girlfriend and where I would be for taking photographs. We then exchanged photographs of what we look like and a few days before the big day what we would wear, so we would recognise each other. When I arrived on Calton Hill, it had been snowing heavily and for me the whole scene was just picture perfect (for photos of this, scroll down). The groom knew that my jacket would be bright reddish-brown, so I was sticking out from the dark winter coats everyone else was wearing. He actually stood beside me and admired the view with his girlfriend and we just nodded to each other while she looked towards the city, knowing what was about to happen.
They then made their way to the agreed spot and they waited for a few moments for the people to disappear. And then - he got down on one knee, with her being totally oblivious to anything else around her!
I met the couple shortly after she said “yes” and it’s just the most amazing moment to be part of such an important part of their lives. We had never met, but gosh the emotions, just priceless!!!
They then enjoyed a glass of bubbly and I took some more photographs of the newly-engaged couple.
My fiancé is my weather frog and to date, he has always been 100% correct with his predictions. He uses really scientific weather apps. A few days before the planned proposal, he knows exactly what the weather is like for a certain location for a certain time. So I knew that today at 12 PM it would be snowing and I had a big grin on my face!! Just perfect. I will of course keep you up-to-date with the weather predictions.
However, should the weather for an outdoor open-air proposal prove to be really wet and windy, we should form a PLAN B before the big day!!
The most popular spots in Edinburgh are obviously frequented by a lot of tourists. The way around this is to plan a proposal for mid-morning, when the tourists are still making their way around the city. So 10 AM is a good time. Or later in the afternoon. In summer, evenings are great too.
I discussed with the Calton Hill groom-to-be the people situation too, as there are likely to be many tourists - in any weather! I told him that if there are too many people, to wait a few minutes until most of them have gone. Your girlfriend will not realise any people around you as the whole thing will hopefully be a total surprise to her. Everything will simply disappear around her!!
I planned a proposal with a groom-to-be in Dean Village recently, and we decided on a certain spot, and we had a Plan B too. At the exact time, when he and his girlfriend were in the exact spot, they were suddenly surrounded by a group of about 15 tourists who all decided this was the perfect spot to take photographs. So even our 10 AM plan was knocked a little. He then made his way to Plan B location and went ahead with the proposal and it was still absolutely beautiful.
Permission? What for you might wonder? When I photographed a proposal in the Royal Botanic Gardens, the groom asked me to prepare a heart of candles which he would lead his girlfriend into for popping the question. For this to be OK (so we don't get chased away) you would need to speak to the people managing the park. Edinburgh Castle offer proposal packages too in one of their special rooms in the castle. It's best to let the people know so everything will be OK on the day.
Just say you have a private tour booked, and I am your tour guide. And if you want to be in touch on the day via WhatsApp or Text message, just save me in your contacts as Tour Guide. Talk about a guy who will meet you at a certain spot if you need a reason to go there. So she will not be suspicious if she sees a lady tourist standing around with a camera around her neck. None of the girls have noticed me whatsoever, even though they were in touching distance from me on almost every occasion. It’s best to hide in plain sight!! This is really true.
I would love to be your secret agent and help you plan your proposal!
What is your name?* AND YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS?* WHAT NUMBER CAN I CALL YOU BACK ON?* What date are you thinking about for your proposal? Any additional information / Location ideas?

12 oz serving: 175 cal, 9g sugar Cider with pineapple. Sweet, rich fruit aroma, plus somewhat tart.
Soooooo delicious!!! I like my ciders on the sweet side and fruity. It was perfectly pineapple-y and slightly sparkling. Such a perfect cider for summer.
I like this surprisingly well. I thought it sounded terrible TBH. Nice surprise.
Another cider I did a blind tasting against my own pineapple mint version. This one was deemed too sweet and lost to my more acidic pineapple cider. The only person who chose this one did so because they don’t like mint.
Straight-up pineapple juice from nose on through. Chuggable, would be great on a hot summer day.
I feel that this is a cider you cannot go wrong with, the pineapple is very exciting! This is my favorite cider so far and I firmly believe it deserves four stars!
Very sweet, but the tartness mostly balances it. The pineapple comes on strong on initial taste, but not much on the nose or finish. This is a mixed pineapple/apple cider, and you can taste elements of both.
Clear pale colored pour. Moderate carbonation. Mild tropical aroma. Nice sweet and crisp pineapple flavor with a tart edge that is backed by a hint of apple juice.
Must drink cold, or sweetness is unpleasant.
Very sweet and a little like drinking candy. But it was better than I expected.
Super sweet, on tap. I like this but my tastes have grown not to love this. The way the sugar hangs in my mouth bothers me.
Tastes just like pineapple juice to me.
This cider only gets two stars because it is actually drinkable. The apple flavor wars with the pineapple and neither comes out looking good.

skoolboy was having a spirited discussion with some of his students the other night, who have taught in school systems such as New York City, Detroit, LA, New Orleans, Washington, DC, Newark, Oakland, and elsewhere. The topic of the day: what's the worst-managed big-city school system--and why? Readers, what do you think? Discuss.
my nearby urban district is definitely the worst.
Really, that's a tough question. I see the system in which I work on a daily basis, and I don't always see its reality reflected in the press--although they've made great strides over the last few years.
Really, when you're a teacher and you find blatantly preposterous statements in the NY Times, you have to wonder about the reporting from other cities. Who knows whether or not they're telling the truth, or whether they've sent anyone to find out what was really happening. Certainly it's easier to just ask City Hall what's going on and write whatever they tell you.
NYC Educator makes a good point. It's very hard to know what to believe about school districts that you haven't lived in and seen the insides of yourself. Many educators I know are very skeptical of the accounts they read of the districts in which they work, because their personal experiences don't line up with what the media report.
I posed the question not because I think there's a right answer, but rather because I am interested in what kinds of issues or vignettes people point at to support the claim that a district is poorly-run.
Right here in NYC we had 35 years of local school districts (k-8) with varying degrees of management styles, though all were very heavily influenced by local politicians who were making sure to grab their patronnage. At the same time, the high schools and special ed were managed centrally. I wonder if anyone did a study of this hodge podge which seemed to work in some places and not in others. But ask anyone. The centrally managed bureacracy was often very bad.
Today we have the mayoral control issue under debate because if it is not renewed we go back to the old system in 2009 that is very much condemned. I don't think it was impossible to fix that system which gave parents and teachers a real local anchor but that will never happen.
Really, there are so many good candidates. Detroit certainly looks horrible--but in the midst of so many other problems in the city, it is hard to tell. Cleveland has a history of interesting record keeping (marking kids present if their teachers sent their assignments home while they were out, dropping kids from their rolls if they had 5 consecutive unexcused absences). But they have a new Superintendent and I give him kudos for inviting a team from AIR to come in following a student shooting and evaluate the quality of their discipline, preventive and mental health responses. It didn't look good, but it's now public information and there is some reason to hope that it might be acted upon.
But, my nominee for mismanagement prize of the year would have to be LAUSD. I am not at all conversant with their inner workings, but I have been watching an interesting situation that has gone on far to long. One of the elementary schools (Dolores Street--google it and you can find your way to a website put up by the teachers), a classic case of poor students with minimal achievement, has been engaged in a highly public battle between their principal and the teachers. Parents and students appear to be divided. Teachers claim the principal is a "lemon," as she is at her third school in three years. The school on the other hand, has gone through principals about as rapidly. The teacher's union is supporting the teachers and call for the firing of the principal. It appears that in LAUSD, principals also have union representation. The principal's union is backing the principal.
The teacher's website includes a complete timeline of offenses committed by the principal, but most are highly subjective accounts of things like poor attitude, not passing along paperwork as promptly as teachers would like and not slotting in the teachers' preferred substitutes. All of this has resulted in extreme distress and harm to the children. The teachers describe themselves as having given the new principal every opportunity to prove herself (after meeting with her before the school year began to find out why she had been removed from her prior position).
The principal's position--stated by her union--is that she took a hard line against teacher tardiness and was serious about raising test scores. In fact, scores did go up, for the first time in several years--a fact that the teachers attribute to their own efforts.
The teachers have done such things as picket outside the school in protest of the principal (the principal explained to the students that the circus was in town than they might see some clowns outside), engage parents and students in a sleepover in order to greet the principal with protests when the principal returned last month--and put up the website.
Hard to guess which side is more wrong--but the absence of adult leadership is striking, as well as the fact that all of this adult misbehavior is taking place in plain view of the children. Is there no one in LAUSD with the temerity and the authority to say, "No, we are not going to go there?"
Contracts or no, it is high time someone offered every dissatisfied teacher at the school a chance to transfer, and the principal an opportunity to select a new staff. She should then be copiously supervised, mentored and supported to ensure her success or removal. Someone has to claim responsibility for educating those children--and setting a respectful tone for education.
Teaching in NYC and having had kids in Kansas City MO I would have to go with KC. There are at least successful schools in NYC even if they are few in number. Further, in NYC there are attempts being made to reform even if the attempts are mostly doing anything but spending money.
As a side note I teach in an un-air conditioned classroom. Who is capable of learning with sweat literally dripping on their paper?

Melbourne, Australia. 29 September 2016. dorsaVi (ASX:DVL) is pleased to announce they have received a Victorian Government Future Industries Manufacturing grant of $350,000. The Future Industries Manufacturing Program offers funding to Victorian-based companies to implement new manufacturing technologies and processes to facilitate growth.
dorsaVi Chief Executive Officer Andrew Ronchi said the grant would be used to help fund the new manufacturing facilities, equipment and staff in its Jolimont premises that are required to bring the next generation of its wearable medical-grade sensors to the market. The grant will allow dorsaVi to complete the facility sooner than originally anticipated. This initiative will greatly assist the scale and speed of manufacturing of the world-leading wearables.
The new facility will incorporate cutting-edge technologies which will reduce manufacturing timelines, automate manual processes, improve stock control and product traceability, and overall manufacturing costs. This funding ultimately ensures that dorsaVi is able to significantly reduce the cost of goods whilst maintaining the high level of quality required for its FDA cleared medical device.

For information about the 2018 event – please visit the HONC website and Facebook page.
Bon Voyage and happy cycling to Karen & Janette who started the C2C route this morning @ 9.30am. Have fun, you’ll zoom along!
They certainly are zooming along...well done!
A few days late, but the results are in for the August segment. It's that man 'Brendon Hill' who claims the maximum, chapeau sir.
Two months to go until the curtain comes down on the league and it's pretty tight at the top. This month is a on the commuter run from Gretton towards Gotherington, with a pull up past Prestcott before a nice run down, finishing by the nursery (garden variety).
Waking up to an inspiring Autumn morning it’s a pleasure to tread on down to ‘The Combe’ from Toddington to meet the other troops. Arriving at the Library, Veteran Mason is first at the starting gate and chomping at the bit to get out of the stalls. Apparently The Pupil has signed in but disappeared to scrabble around the cash points in search of funding. At 8.30 Railway Rog turns up – bang on time and reflecting train reliability of yesteryears. Finally Double Agent Ballanger out for a leg stretcher before his End to End mission next weekend. We are five.
Given the instructions from The Captain – our leader from the armchair. ‘Choose the route on the day’ is the request. We discuss punishing routes into the Cotswolds but strangely a flat blast to Defford was unanimously agreed.
We make a good pace to the farm shop and enjoy a flyby from Railway Rog as he surges to chosen destination clearly full or Weetabix – in fact the healthy 16 mph plus results in a 20 minute early arrival. I request politely that they boil an early kettle but we are dismissed with non negotiable reasoning. The peloton is hurt, a feeling of betrayal lingers – ‘We are regulars’ rant the punters. In protest of the degree of inflexibility we have encountered the decision is made to make use of the Loos (which were open) and press on to Tewkesbury Garden Centre. A good pace continues. We enjoy some unusually good service at what could be described on many occasions as ‘Café Confusion’ With SA Ballanger setting the trend with a greasy bap. The Veteran is disgruntled when his request for a tea cake without butter arrives without Jam also. ‘How could they imagine Id want a dry tea cake? We agree café confusions assumption was ill-conceived.
We head off home via Kemerton and Beckford – ‘Having one Veteran? - ‘Rude not to’ he reliably replies. ‘What about you Pupil?’ – ‘I’m having a bottle in the bath’ is the answer. Following a lecture on secret drinking he also succumbs to the invite. SA Bally doesn’t need to be asked as that’s what ex MTB`s do. Railway Rog is asked but chooses not to join us. – as he declines we can hear a mutter - ‘lead me not into temptation and deliver me from evil’. See you next week Rog.
A healthy 15.5 mph over 40 plus miles and 2000 odd feet of climbing topped with a chin wag in The Lion all contributed to another top Sunday Morning!
Looking for a good turnout next week as we Tour new pastures in Oxfordshire – starting in Stow on Wold. Best of luck to Double Agents Ballanger and Morrison as they take on End to End next week – don’t think they’ll be doing that on the MTB eh??.

Although I was greatly intrigued with tea cup pigs like everyone else that watches How I Met Your Mother Last night, a link sent over by my friend Arielle quickly changed my feelings towards pigs.
It made me want to eat them.
Cochon 555 is the road show of pork, dedicated to heritage breed pigs, where chefs around the country compete with the hopes of making it to the main event at the Food and Wine Festival in Aspen. Who will be there on March 21st, 2010, in New Pork City (to their credit, they have that on the website)?
This guy. And Burgergal. And maybe other people I know, but they haven’t bought tickets yet, so probably just the burger duo.
Check it out. It is going to be awesome. Say it in French (“cinq cent cinquante cinq”) and it’s even more awesome.

A nice little lesson on right hand speed and preparation. I like how Tariq goes through how he practices rather than just the tips. I love these kind of casual videos on youtube, watch enough of them from the pros and you’ll get an overall idea of how to approach right hand technique on classical guitar. You can also check out a more basic lesson on right hand technique here. If you’re looking for a technique book you can check out my review of classical guitar technique and exercise books. You can find more free lessons at the lesson archive page. For more free weekly lessons join the Email Newsletter for updates and please consider donating to the site or sharing this post.
This video is a response to some who have asked me questions about improving right-hand speed for playing scales on the classical guitar, whether its using free-stroke, or rest-stroke technique.
Always using a metronome, I tried to explain the practice method that I followed for some years now to improve my right-hand speed and accuracy. I hope this helps you.
Please don’t hesitate to write to me if you have any questions. Thanks for watching!

The CD1 Mill produces test flours that is representative of flours obtained from industrial mills.
The CD1 Mill is a test mill designed to reproducibly mill wheat samples for evaluation of yield, quality and for further testing. The biochemical composition of the flours processed out of the CD1 is very close to that of industrial flours (purity, granulometry, histological composition, starch damage, quality and quantity of protein).
The CD1 Mill is a repeatable, reproducible and standardized method for evaluating the milling and quality characteristics of wheat. The CD1 mill complies with AACC 26-70.01 standard which describes its use for experimental milling. It also complies with NF EN ISO 27971 standard which describes the test milling methodology for the Alveograph test (ring tests, wheat-market transactions).
Breaking with two streams between three fixed grooved cylinders.
Reduction by one or two streams between two smooth cylinders.
The CD1 has many uses for milling professionals needing a reproducible and standardized milling method.
Characterization of the flours obtained.

ELAINE: Wait until I get my hands on that George. I'm going to pull that big hood over his little head, tie the string and suffocate him. You remember that Panama hat? That was nothing.
ELAINE: What's the matter with you?
JERRY: I think I got David Duke and Fahrikan down there.
ELAINE: Well if we can't look to the cookie where can we look?
JERRY: I feel like I'm going to throw up.
ELAINE: Hey, what about your vomit streak?
JERRY: I know, I haven't thrown up since June 29th, 1980.
JERRY: As good as it gets.
This dialogue was running through my mind last Wednesday night. Wednesday, March 24, 2010 to be exact. The past few days, I had developed a really bad cough that had been keeping me up late at night. I'll try to spare as much nasty details as I can, but take this as warning right now, the next little bit may get slightly graphic and is not a recommended read for the faint of stomach. So skip ahead to the next paragraph if you feel so inclined. Anyway, a lot of this cough had to do with all of the phlegm stuff that just was not going away. So most of my late night coughing also involved a lot of late night hacking and late night spitting. Through all of this hacking, every now and then my gag reflex was being triggered a little bit and I would occasionally dry heave. It. Was. Horrible.
The last time I remember throwing up, I'm pretty sure, was late summer 2005. Rachel McKendrick was still Rachel Johnson and was dating Zack. They had planned a BYOB BBQ at Freestone Park with volleyball and all that fun stuff. So of course I went. I had never really BBQ'd (My dad always had taken the reins on that one), and I totally forgot about the BYOB thing until the last minute, so as I was almost out the door that night, I quickly ran back and checked the fridge for some meat to throw on the grill. I didn't see anything I wanted in the fridge, but there was a perfectly sized (already-been-grilled) chicken breast in the freezer. I grabbed it and headed out.
I remember being so hungry and just staring at my chicken on the grill while everyone else was eating their burgers, hot dogs, and steaks. Theirs weren't frozen, so they cooked right up in no time. Mine was taking forever. I don't know how long I waited, but I remember that I decided not to be picky and just ate it as soon as it was semi-warm (I didn't want to wait there forever!). Anyway, the next morning I threw up and was sick all day. Pretty sure I food-poisoned myself.
That was about five years ago and I hadn't vomited since. I've always prided myself on how I rarely get sick. Well, all of that hard work went down the toilet last Wed night. This was not a dry heave. While it wasn't 14 years like Jerry had, I'm still a little bummed that it's over.

In October 2017, astrobiologist Karen J. Meech got the call every astronomer waits for: NASA had spotted the very first visitor from another star system.
The interstellar comet — a half-mile-long object eventually named `Oumuamua, from the Hawaiian for “scout” or “messenger” — raised intriguing questions: Was it a chunk of rocky debris from a new star system, shredded material from a supernova explosion, evidence of alien technology or something else altogether?
In this riveting talk, Meech tells the story of how her team raced against the clock to find answers about this unexpected gift from afar.

Happy Holidays from Ciao Desserts!
Despite the reality that I’ve been working and living in Taiwan for a handful of years now, I still can’t get over the fact that we have to work on Christmas Day (and New Year’s Eve!) But, I took some solace in my friend Peggy’s reminder that holiday spirit can be 24/7, 365 days a year. So even though some of my holiday baking was late this year, I still got into the spirit of things the weekend before and after Christmas.
The weekend before Christmas, I was lucky to have the chance to bake with my friends’ adorable four year old boy~ and also to bake some cookies for my other friend’s adorable niece. (I know! So much adorableness in my life!) I discovered that kids don’t actually care about the frosting or sprinkles (?!) They actually prefer to eat the cookies plain. AND, The fun is definitely all about the cookie cutters… Now that I know, I’m going to have to build up my cookie cutter collection.
… and my silicon baking brush. I never knew how I lived without it.
For this recipe, I also experimented with two new ingredients: French butter and Juono plain yogurt.
That baking project for Janet’s family was probably one of my most contented mornings of recent times. I discovered that slicing apples thinly and arranging them into concentric circles is an effective stress relieving activity.
I boxed up two 8 inch cakes and realized that I didn’t have a shopping bag handy that was big enough for both cakes. Lucky for me, the non-stop rain of late stopped for about 40 minutes, and I was able to deliver the cakes without too much mishap.
The toasted almonds really add a depth of flavor to the cookie. I ran out of flour halfway through, so I was only able to bake a few batches this time.
This year I also tried a new recipe: Cranberry Lemon. Their fabulousness deserves their own post, so stay tuned!
Last but not least, my friend Alex baked me these mini-cakes. They’re a combination of sweet potato, and each have different fillings of pineapple, cranberry and taro. He also incorporates carrot into the batter, so it’s a moist and flavorful mini-cake that is just bursting with nutritional goodness! I enjoyed mine with a cup of Matcha green tea, but I imagine they would go well with either a cup of coffee or black tea.
Nice holiday post 🙂 Keep up the good work, and happy baking into 2014!
The Apple cake was so delicious, thank you for making the lovely cake for me!

Eventually, I did ‘finish’ it (though nobody will ever get to actually read it), but it was an immense struggle that had me spend 6 months for 100k words. Today that’s different. I regularly produce somewhere between 3000 and 4000 words a day now, six or seven days a week. That means I put out about 100k words a month!
Obviously, that helps a great deal with being a successful traveling freelancer, particularly as many jobs pay per word. So, how did I get here?
The first thing you have to accept is that you won’t start here. We all have to get better at writing. Sure, you can be talented at it, but talent alone is not enough.
You need to put in the hours to take that rough stone that is your writing skill and polish it into a diamond. In fact, that metaphor does not quite do it justice, because at one point you’ll be done with that diamond, while that will never happen to your writing. If you want to excel you’ve got to embark on a journey with no final destination – a journey of constant self-improvement (maybe that’s why so many successful writers travel?).
And it is not a journey unless you’re moving. You have to work at it. That takes either discipline or external motivation to push yourself to produce. When I was writing that book I relied on discipline and I did become more productive over time (my second book wasn’t half as much of a struggle).
What really got me moving, however, was when I became a full-time freelancer and I simply had to produce, as my savings were dwindling and people depended on me.
So I produced. It was hard, it was thankless and it put me under incredible pressure, but day by day I got better and I was able to write more. I remember the first ebook I wrote for somebody. I had to write a thousand words a day and it took me all day for two weeks. It destroyed me. Now I can produce something like that in a week and have plenty of time left over for sightseeing, drinking and living it up.
In the beginning, I was a slave to his criticism. Eventually, however, I learned the right way to answer him.
I call it the procrastinator’s response. It is the ‘yeah, you’re probably right, but I’ll deal with that later’ and ‘I’ll get to that in the next draft’. Then I just keep writing.
Sometimes, when he really gets the upper hand and I can’t write a section, I’ll just leave it blank, putting in square brackets what I want to write and returning to it later. The goal is to keep writing, as when you’re in the zone, when you’ve got flow, the words simply pour onto the page. The moment the little guy gets the upper hand, however, that’s it. The flow is gone and every word again becomes a struggle.
And so I put him off with the procrastinator’s response.
• First of all, it means you can keep writing and that is obviously huge.
• The other one is that it means there is a distance between when you write something for the first time and when you sit down to edit it. This is vitally important, as it will allow you to be far more objective about whether the words are actually any good, allowing you to avoid those all too common episodes where you delete whole stretches of perfectly good text because you’re having a crisis of faith.
When I started out I knew I wasn’t very good. How could I be? There was still so very much to learn! I knew I had to write to get better. The thing was, however, with the internet being what it is, I felt like every piece of text I put out under my own name would haunt me for the rest of my life.
And so I became obsessed with writing perfect prose – not writing down any idea that wasn’t absolutely excellent, editing those texts that I did manage to write dozens of times and abandoning far more projects than I finished. In other words, my quest for perfection ended up paralyzing me.
For me, the solution was ghost-writing. I’ve done a lot of it (and still do, as a matter of fact). The great thing about ghost-writing is that you can churn out the content and as long as the client is happy, you’re done with it. It will get put out there under somebody else’s name and you never have to think back to it again (and trust me, when you’re putting out dozens of articles a week, you don’t).
For me, that means two things.
I’m far less likely to freeze up when I can’t get something quite right.
My perception has shifted from creating perfect prose to creating text that is good enough – a target which is actually achievable (and a bar that steadily gets raised higher as I become better at what I do).
Then, when you feel you’re ready, you can start writing under your own name again, with the lessons from ghost-writing deeply engrained in your writing subconscious.
We’re terrible at multitasking. In fact, there is research that points at it might actually kill brain cells. Whether that’s true or not, it is a fact that constantly checking social media and allowing yourself to get distracted will kill any chance that you’ll actually achieve flow and murder your productivity.
For that reason, I often write offline. First I’ll gather what I think I’ll need (you can easily save websites by right-clicking on them and hitting ‘save as’) and then I simply turn the wifi off or go somewhere where it can’t reach me.
Sure, I’ll frequently realize I need an extra resource half way through, but in that case, I’ll again use the procrastinator’s response and come back to it later.
Of course, getting away from the internet is far easier for me out here in the boondocks where the internet is spotty anyway than it might be for you. If you can’t simply turn off your wifi (or it is just too easy to hit that button and turn it back on again) consider installing something like selfcontrol (it is just for mac but there are variations of this theme for PC as well).
Programs like this will block social media, Netflicks and other similar problematic websites for predetermined times (you predetermine them). In this way, you’ll still be able to do the research, while preventing the biggest distractors from pulling you in.
Some days you are just more productive than others. That’s life. Don’t make it harder on yourself by keeping going when it really isn’t working. Instead, go do something else for a while and come back to it. If it still doesn’t work, accept it and move on. Take a day off.
Sometimes I have trouble following this advice myself, but when I do I often find that when I come back to it the day after I’m actually far more productive due to the break and I can easily make up the work that I didn’t do on the day I missed out.
Even if I’m not, kicking myself for something in the past is counter-productive. It doesn’t help anybody to dwell on something you can’t change and will in fact probably mean you’re not as focused on that which you can change – how much you write in the days to come.
So focus on doing better in the future, because as long as you keep trying, keep working at it and keep putting in the effort you’ll get better, faster and more effective.
That’s how I got from struggling to write a few hundred words a day, to being able to produce several thousand words with enough time left over to travel the world, see the sights and enjoy my life.

Sarah Brightman returns with her new studio album, HYMN, reuniting with long time producer and collaborator Frank Peterson, with whom she created chart topping albums such as Timeless (Time To Say Goodbye), Eden, La Luna, Harem, Symphony, and A Winter Symphony. HYMN is an inspirational collection of orchestrated, choir-based songs. Brightman, kept thinking about the word, HYMN, and to her it suggested joy a feeling of hope and light, something that is familiar and secure. For Brightman, every project comes from an emotional place, and HYMN is no exception. HYMN was recorded over the past two years in Hamburg, Miami, London, Vancouver, Los Angeles, New York, and Budapest, and encompasses songs by such modern composers as Eric Whitacre (Fly To Paradise), Japanese superstar musician and songwriter Yoshiki (Miracle), and German DJ Paul Kalkbrenner (Sky and Sand).
HYMN’s mystical, uplifting tone is set with its title track a song by British prog-rock band Barclay James Harvest. From there, the album becomes excitingly eclectic, encompassing many styles. Sogni, described as a mash-up of two arias from two different operas by French composer Georges Bizet, is flawlessly sung by Brightman and French tenor Vincent Niclo. Also included are Canto Per Noi, written by famed Italian composer Ennio Morricone and Romano Musumarra, and Follow Me, the love theme from the 1962 film Mutiny on the Bounty. Finally, the album closes with a new rendition of Brightman s signature smash duet with Andrea Bocelli, Time To Say Goodbye, in a new solo rendition with lyrics Sarah wrote herself, and sung in English for the first time.

As a culture, we often place more emphasis on the Fatherhood of God than we do the Motherhood of God. Some of us may have never even heard the phrase, “the Motherhood of God” used before. But if we do a careful search of the scriptures, we see that there is a Mother-side of God that is important for us to implement into the practice of our beliefs.

White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders threw a bit of cold water on the narrative Friday afternoon.
She stressed that talks will only occur if North Korea takes “concrete and verifiable action” toward denuclearization.
Her rhetoric led some observers to conclude that the White House had cold feet about the proposed meeting with North Korea.
Do you think this meeting will be successful?
On Saturday he issued another tweet about the meetings.

A simple trick to expand your experience of this seemingly limited resource.
Sorry, but I don’t have time. It’s a common enough statement. And it’s probably true: leisure hours are decreasing even as our smartphone use fragments our attention. We’re more likely than ever to feel that time is slipping away from us. But there are some simple things we can do to overcome timesuck and control time, even without a time machine.
Think back to your childhood: vibrant memories of adventure and thrilling new experiences. Summers that dragged on forever. Felt like you had oodles of time, amiright? Scientists have a theory to explain the apparent time-speed-increase that accompanies getting older and wiser: mental processing.
Neuroscientist David Eagleman believes that new and novel experiences take more effort for the brain to understand and categorize. The harder and longer the brain has to work, the more our perception of time seems to expand. As we get older, we establish routines and have fewer new experiences. The brain gets really good at figuring out what we’re doing, so it doesn’t have to work as hard, and time seems to speed up.
So without regressing into a childlike state, how do we master our own mind-time? Simple. When we want more time, we just need to do something novel like taking a new route to work, swapping desks with a buddy, or trying to learn a challenging new skill. When there’s a task we particularly dislike, we can make it go by faster by turning it into a routine.
That’s it. It’s that easy. Now all you need to do is put it into action.
Many thanks to the talented Real Arters who hand-lettered the phrases accompanying this article: Crystal Dennis, Andrew Althouse, Cassandra O’Connell, Reka Juhasz, and Candy Niemeyer.

Priya Sebastian~ an illustrator, a blogger, a cat-lover, and a Bangalorean shares her beautiful and serene home with all of us today. A home surrounded by the lush greenery of her magical garden. Cindy her cat relaxing on her sofa.
Priya says, "I like clean lines and unfussy rooms. Not only does openness and lack of clutter give me breathing space, it also makes maintenance far easier."
The plants in her various bottles form such lovely design elements.
Warm tones and dark browns are splashed with hints of Priya's favourite colour – deep pink.
The rest of the colour comes from books on the shelf and from green plants dotted within the rooms which are an extension of the wild garden just outside.
The Grand Piano is such a stunning piece against the warm coloured walls.
Priya says,"The room in my apartment that I use the most is my active studio which alternates between chaos and tidy. More often than not, it is strewn with paper, pencils, charcoal dust and a cat."
Whenever I see plants in glass bottles I can think only of Priya. She has used such simple arrangements so effectively in her home, what a grand way to bring nature into your home!
Her space reflects the warmth and the creativity that she is endowed with.
Thanks Priya for sharing your gorgeous home with all of us!
P.S~ If you have any questions for Priya about her home, please ask in the comments section so she can reply to you.
I love the simplicity and the warmth of her home.
All those greens.. what a lovely place to rest, especially on hot summer days! Very nice!
ahh Priya's lovely nest and her stunning garden!... Love it.
Priya ..great garden! you definitely do have a green-thumb. Love the vines in the bottles.
Elegant decor Priya. I have a question abt the plants. I know that ivy (money plant) can be grown in a botte. I see others in the pictures. What are they ? Pls. let me know.
Love the unfussy straight lines and simplicity of the house Priya.A house with all Lovely greens in tall bottles.A warmth and coolness in total.I have tried growing them so many times,but ultimately they become yellow and the stem remains.If any tips please archana,if you could share.
this is such a great series...thanks for starting it... priya's house is so warm....love the plants....and the sofa...and cindy!!
her house is so simple and full of greens! I love green!
Love Priya's space. I have the same queries as the others. While I have grown money plants in bottles , never tried the same with other plants. Please let us know what other plants can be grown in bottles?
You know Arch, the 1st thing I asked Priya when i saw a few pics of her home on her blog was this " Are all bangalore homes these leafy pretty villas, with an air of quiet & warmth?" I find something similar in her home & my friends home that I just featured. Maybe it is the warm walls, maybe it is the many plants & maybe it is the unique spirit charachterised by the strong women that live here.
Priya, you truly have a lovely home.
I think the weather is something that really helps in growing some lovely plants.
I love the bookshelf on the piano, the clean lines. I also wanted what plants other than the money plant can grow in bottles?
Loved the piano corner - Beautiful...Loved the simplicity...beautiful house.
Thank you each and every one of you who has stopped by to visit and comment. It is heart warming. And thank you too Arch, for constantly appreciating my house and my work. I am truly touched.
I simply do not know the names of most of the plants except the ever green Money Plant. I find that most of the non - flowering creepers, the ones that you can wrap around a moss stick, can be cut and put into bottles. They invariably grow roots and thrive.
I keep rotating my bottles constantly. I never keep them within the house for very long. They seem to last this way.
I do sometimes experiment by taking a cutting and placing it in a bottle and watching to see if it grows. If it puts out roots, then it stays in the bottle quite happily, otherwise it gets planted back in the ground again.
I hope my suggestions were useful, and I do apologize for not knowing the names of the plants.
The wild garden outside your balcony/ window is so lovely, and the mud filled railing that allows more greens to grow!
Thanks for featuring Priya's home.
A beautiful home. I love how effortlessly Priya has brought the outdoors inside, with plants, flowers, leaves and pods. I love the clean and unfussy lines too.
I am mesmerized by the green bottles in the sunlight. Gorgeous.
Thank you for sharing a glimpse of Priya's home with me. I adore Priya not only as an artist but also as a human being.
Priya is one of my very favourite people.
Thank you for sharing her home.
And do I spy a gum nut in that collection of seeds?
She uses very warm and inviting colors in her home. The garden is simply beautiful. Thanks for sharing these!
I am a big fan of both of Priya's blog, and I believe I have seen some of these pics in Priya's blog too. I said then, and I will say it again - I love the piano :) (it's not a grand piano though Arch). It's almost like the one owned by music teacher when I was a kid.
I also love the old world charm of her wood and rattan (?) Indian sofa. It so reminds of me of old Bangalore. Beautiful taste.
Sharon- Oh it is not a Grand Piano?
Oh, the beautiful symmetry, the stylish simplicity, the tranquillity. It is gorgeous in every possible way. The artist in her shines through, doesn't it? Lovely.
The greens make Priya's home effortlessly warm and cozy!! I love the piano corner.. and all the greens... everywhere!! Lovely!
Priya's home is so welcoming. It's the home of an artist. I would be very happy there.
such a lovely home. with wonderful furniture. Do you play the piano often?
I love those green bottles with greenery pouring out of them.
Still Water: I play the piano as often as I can.
Sunita: Then I hope you come to Bangalore very soon!
Truly a warm home. Liked the coziness of this home !
Lovely Elegant, Clutter free Minimalistic home!
Nice bottled greens you have tr of anthuriums, pothos and similar families.
I have never liked the "Concept of artificial plants"
I've started bottling greens too and im experimenting with bottling gardens.
Got it from my momy who has bottled plants for nearly 20yrs now!
Try out some more plants like Mother in laws tongue,Syngoniums( commonly available) and also the marble queen. they need shade and humid conditions grow well indoors especially in water.
Love the concept of planting green plants in those bottles in different hues of green.such a treat to the eyes.

The MARS 6 Extraction Option is a required option for performing solvent extraction methodologies in the MARS 6. A solvent sensor assembly is installed in the exhaust line to detect any solvent emission vapors present in the instrument cavity during operation. The method will be halted with a solvent alarm notification if vapors are detected. This extremely sensitive sensor is calibrated to a known volume of solvent vapor and operates regardless of vessel type or methodology when activated. The sensor can easily be removed in circumstances where acid digestion methodology is performed.

Rabbi Schneur Cohen of Manchester brings coffee and pastries to emergency workers after an attack at Manchester Arena killed 22 and injured dozens more.
At least 22 people were killed and 59 injured in a bombing at Manchester Arena on May 22 following an Ariana Grande concert.
Civilians offered food and shelter to those affected by the attack.
Taxi drivers drove people to safety and to hospitals, and others lined up to donate blood.
Fred Rogers, host of the children's television program "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood," once recalled his mother's advice about grappling with tragic events in the news.
"She would say, 'Always look for the helpers,'" he said. "'There will always be helpers.'"
When a bomb exploded at Manchester Arena following an Ariana Grande concert, killing at least 22 people and injuring dozens more, people rushed to the aid of those affected by the attack.
Here are some of those helpers who performed acts of kindness in the face of tragedy.
Taxi drivers offered rides to safety — and to local hospitals — free of charge.
People lined up to donate blood.
So many people showed up that by 11am, Give Blood NHS said that donations were no longer needed.
The hashtag #RoomForManchester began trending as locals opened up their homes to concert goers who were stranded in the city.
Paula Robinson is being hailed as the "angel of Manchester" after she led 50 kids to safety at a nearby Holiday Inn in the chaotic aftermath of the attack.
Robinson said that she "ran out" of the area seconds after the blast and "got the teens to run with me," according to The Independent.
Hotels continued to offer shelter to those affected.
The Soupreme Sandwich Co, located around the corner from an ambulance station, offered free meals to emergency workers.
Rabbi Shneur Cohen, a Chabad Lubavitch rabbi and emissary in Manchester, brought coffee and pastries to police officers on the scene.
"We are Manchester," he told a camera crew in a video posted to YouTube. "We will stand together strong, shoulder to shoulder, with positive acts of kindness."
Billa Ahmed, a graphic designer and owner of Islamic Posters, gathered donations of sandwiches and drinks and delivered them to the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital.
"This is a time that we all need to come together as a community," he said in a Facebook Live video. "This should make us stronger."

Kylix produces ELF binaries so in order to run them outside the IDE you need to first run 'source kylixpath' in the kylix2/bin directory. This sets up the necessary environment variables. Then, in a command window, go the directory where your compiled binary is and enter ./Project1 if your executable is called Project1.

Tim Dwight rose from a high school and college star in Iowa City to a 10-year career in the NFL.
Tim Dwight follows his passions, from sports to sunshine.
Dwight was a swift bundle of relentless energy on the football field and on the track. He rose from a high school and college star in Iowa City to a 10-year career in the NFL.
But if you get him started talking about solar energy now — his current occupation involves developing that technology in Iowa — then he takes off with the drive of a kick returner aiming for a touchdown.
"The sun is the biggest resource in the galaxy," Dwight said. "It's free."
Dwight, whose power and speed made him one of the state's greatest track and football athletes, is the 217th member of the Des Moines Sunday Register's Iowa Sports Hall of Fame.
He grew up in Iowa City, about a mile and a half from Kinnick Stadium, in a whirlwind of activity. He was a fixture on the playground at the elementary school next to his house, jogged through his paper route and raced his bicycle in daredevil fashion so much that some worried it might lead to his demise.
Dwight focused that energy into his athletic career. Who better to catch a pass over the middle or return a kickoff 94 yards for a touchdown in the Super Bowl?
The son of a coach, Dwight became an intense competitor.
"What separated him was his explosiveness and competitiveness," said former Iowa City West football coach Reese Morgan, who is now an Iowa assistant.
Dwight was a three-time Des Moines Sunday Register all-state football player. He was a running back in high school — scoring a touchdown on his first carry as a freshman brought up to the varsity for the playoffs — and left an impression so deep that he was named to the Register's All-Century team.
"It was men against boys," Morgan said. "He was a great high school player, a great college player and a great pro player."
Dwight had a poster of NFL great Barry Sanders on his bedroom wall. His compact body type was not unlike Dwight, who weighed 170 pounds as a senior. He rushed for 4,230 yards and scored 83 touchdowns at Iowa City High.
His competitiveness showed on the track, too. In one Drake Relays race during his freshman year, one of Dwight's shoes fell off as he rounded the first turn of a 400-meter leg. He ran the rest of the lap without hesitation.
Dwight enjoyed catching and passing runners who held a lead on him at the start of a relay. But he learned a lesson when he burned up his energy too soon in a race against Ames' John Barnett, one of the state's top 400 runners. Dwight finished second and calls it the only race he regrets.
"He let me get out a little fast," Dwight said.
Barnett told him to be patient, and success would come when he became older.
"I thought, 'Someday I'm going to have that race,' " Dwight said.
Outstanding coaches and teammates allowed him to compete at a high level, he said.
Dwight, who graduated from City High in 1994, won eight individual high school state track events. He was a four-time 200-meter dash champ and a three-time long jump winner.
He chose to play football at Iowa just before Christmas his senior year. He wanted to play for the hometown Hawkeyes and coach Hayden Fry.
"I was born in '75, he came here in '79," Dwight said. "I grew up in the era of Hayden Fry and the re-establishment of Iowa football in the '80s with the Longs, with the Harmons."
Dwight was recruited to play running back, but he wisely made a transition to receiver and kick returner in college.
"I thought I was going to go in there and play running back," Dwight said. "I learned the hard way, I wasn't going to be that running back."
He would have been stuck behind future NFL players Sedrick Shaw and Tavian Banks in the backfield and his body wouldn't have survived taking hits in the NFL for a decade at that position.
Dwight's first touchdown catch brought him reassurance. Ryan Driscoll threw an out-and-up route at the back of the end zone that Dwight grabbed.
"That play kind of solidified myself — you know, you can compete at this level, you can make it in this league," Dwight said.
He'd prove himself as a threat to score as a receiver or kick returner. He ran a few plays, too.
Dwight caught 139 passes for 2,271 yards and 21 touchdowns. His receiving yardage was a team record at that time.
He also returned five punts for touchdowns at Iowa.
Dwight was drafted by the Atlanta Falcons in the fourth round.
He found he wasn't the fastest player on his team and wondered if he'd make the cut.
"You always have a little doubt in your self-confidence," Dwight said. "You talk yourself out of it ... It's day to day, every day."
He made one of the biggest impacts by an Iowan in Super Bowl history in his first season.
In Super Bowl XXXIII, he returned a kickoff 94 yards for a touchdown on Jan. 31, 1999.
"I wasn't afraid, at that time as a rookie, 23 years old, to slam it up in there when I saw a hole — I took it," Dwight said, snapping his fingers. "And then I figured out what to do on the other side of it."
He ran behind four big offensive linemen and a group of speedy blockers. Then Dwight found himself facing the kicker, the only player between himself and the end zone.
"(I told myself) you know what, I don't think you're going to tackle me today, especially in this game," Dwight said.
A Denver team led by John Elway beat the Falcons 34-19. Dwight returned five kickoffs for a 42-yard average, the most in Super Bowl history.
Dwight said he initially, naively believed that his team was so good that more Super Bowl appearances would arrive.
"It's an exciting time — you don't get that many opportunities to go out there and compete at that level in that type of stadium and atmosphere," Dwight said.
He played three seasons with Atlanta, then went to San Diego for four years.
The Chargers featured Doug Flutie at quarterback and drafted future star Drew Brees for Dwight's first year with the team.
"I said, 'Woo, sweet,' " Dwight said. "I just got traded and Flutie's got a few more years on his way out and Drew will open the offense."
Brees would emerge as an eight-time Pro Bowl selection and a Super Bowl MVP with the New Orleans Saints.
"When he's ready to roll, you better be ready to roll," Dwight said.
Dwight also played with quarterbacks Tom Brady and Chris Chandler. He continued to learn on the job.
"Everybody is fast," Dwight said. "Then it becomes a knowledge game."
He competed for New England, the New York Jets and the Oakland Raiders before finishing his career after the 2007 season.
Dwight played 12 or more regular-season games in six of 10 seasons.
"I was a lucky player," Dwight said.
Dwight spends time in California and Iowa City now. He travels the state, pitching solar power and green energy.
"If we take the car off the grid, we don't have to go to Iraq," Dwight said.

“It appears that there is a substantial degree of supplanting and not 100 percent supplementing,” said Myron Coulter, co-chair of the committee and former chancellor of Western Carolina University.
This is hardly surprising, given that it happens elsewhere and that legislators concerned about an ever-expanding list of needs feel pressed to trim taxpayer funding for any program where there is an alternative source of income.
The N.C. Education Lottery was approved in 2005 after some political chicanery in the state Senate led members to believe a vote would not be taken. Some members were absent on the day the lottery passed. Even then, Lt. Gov. Bev Perdue had to break a tie vote to approve it.
One selling point for the lottery is that state officials would make sure lottery revenue didn't replace existing school funding. That's hard to do, of course, but it's worth trying. We agree with Lt. Gov. Perdue that there needs to be an effective way to assure that the lottery provides extra money for schools.
It's also time to reassess the use of lottery money. Under existing law, lottery funds are to be used for reducing class sizes and preschool programs, financing college scholarships and school construction. While each of those is a worthy use of money, dividing it among several programs reduces its overall impact.
That's why we've long believed that if North Carolina must have a lottery, it ought to focus all the income on nonrecurring expenditures, such as building new classrooms and other facilities. Depending on the whims of lottery players for a portion of all-important operating funds for schools makes no sense.

Farm & Food Photo Contest Announced!
A new event celebrating local farms and foods August 10 will feature commemorative posters created with winning photos from a contest announced today.
"Our new festival is a dream come true for me," said Cheryl DeBerry, Natural Resources Business Specialist for Garrett County Economic Development. "The local food movement is alive and well in our region and we should celebrate it, with the goal of getting more local foods from our farmers into the kitchens of our neighbors."
The Serve It Up Local: Celebrating Farms & Food Fest will be held August 10 at the Ag Heritage Hall at the Garrett County Fairgrounds. The event will highlight the use of local farm products and will include a Cook-Off using local foods, live music, farmer presentations, cooking demonstrations, a Local Sips Social, and a 50-Mile Meal Dinner prepared with foods sourced within 50 miles. The commemorative posters will be sold and proceeds from poster sales and the event will benefit farm-to-table efforts in the region.
"We're looking for photos that depict the use of local foods and other farm products, such as wool," DeBerry continued. "Examples could include photos of the farmers markets, a meal someone prepared with locally-sourced foods, kids helping prepare local foods in the kitchen, a farm where foods are being produced, or anything that helps convey the idea of the contest and our event."
All photos will become property of the Serve It Up Local: Celebrating Farms & Foods Fest and can be used at the discretion of the planning committee. A collage of winning photos will be used on a commemorative poster, and the photographer's name will be printed on the poster as well as on the website, www.ServeItUpLocal.com<http://www.ServeItUpLocal.com> and in media releases about the contest. The winners of the contest will receive two tickets to attend the 50-Mile Meal Dinner on August 10 at the Serve It Up Local: Celebrating Farms & Foods Fest.
Photos for the contest should be submitted by July 10. High resolution electronic versions can be sent to ServeItUpLocal@gmail.com<mailto:ServeItUpLocal@gmail.com> or prints can be dropped off at the University of Maryland Extension office at 1916 Maryland Highway, Suite A, in Mt. Lake Park. For more information, visit www.ServeItUpLocal.com<http://www.ServeItUpLocal.com> or email ServeItUpLocal@gmail.com<mailto:ServeItUpLocal@gmail.com> or call 240-442-2585<tel:240-442-2585>.

The KEP RTP Dual Ratemeter / Totalizer is a presettable Ratemeter and Totalizer from two pulse inputs. It can show rate and total at the same time on the 2 X 16 backlit LCD display. Both inputs can have up to 16 point linearizing k factors. The unit can be connected in a network for Data Acquisition.
The RTP can accept two pulse inputs ( A&B ). It computes rate and total of A, B, A+B and A-B. For both inputs the user can define up to 16 points of "k" factors. This allows linearization of the displayed rate, which is useful in improving the accuracy of the flowmeter. The rate is computed within 300 ms per input. To stabilize the rate display, the user can select normalizing factor, which allows weighted average to be shown. Moreover, for rate displays, a time delay of up to 25 seconds can also be selected.
The RTP has three Control Inputs, i.e. Input C, Input D and Input E (Only C & D with RS485 option). Each input can be configured to start/stop each counter or reset each counter and Control Output. These inputs can also perform different control actions like printing on serial port, lock unit and freeze display.

Reloading addict, Bob Shell gives us his report on his trial run of the RCBS Chargemaster Gun Powder Dispenser & Scale.
USA – -(Ammoland.com)- The RCBS Chargemaster Powder Dispenser & Scale, model 1500, is an advanced unit for measuring gun powder.
Accurate powder measuring is very important in order to have safe and good ammo. This unit does that plus other things including memory functions. There is a standard 1-year warranty covering the original owner. It is essentially for someone who has a lot of time and wants precision powder changes. If you are more interested in making quantity ammo then a mechanical setup will work better for you.
The Chargemaster is a fairly expensive unit ($500.00 MSRP, way less online) so I would suggest some research before buying as it isn’t for everyone especially the casual reloader. If it suites your reloading needs then by all means buy it as it works as advertised.
There is an instruction manual (embedded below) and I strongly suggest that you read it thoroughly especially if you are not tech savvy like me. The manual is very helpful in navigating through this product.
If you make a mistake in using this unit it could be costly. For example, it warns against using black powder because the static electricity may set it off with bad results. When you get done with it thoroughly cleaning it is important to get all residue and eliminate any static electricity. There is a brush provided plus you can wipe down everything and I recommend that you follow that closely.
Another thing when changing powder, it is a several step process and it must be followed to prevent an accident. The powder trickle tube will have some powder in it so it must be thoroughly drained. There can be up to 24 grains of left over powder and imagine if it is WW- 231 and you are switching to a rifle cartridge. The left over 24 grains of pistol powder could be disastrous in a rifle case. If you have a preset load, you might not check the powder, which is a mistake. Never take it for granted that you have the correct powder and weight as that can lead to disaster. You should also remove the scale pan, plate calibration weights and unplug and hold over a container to insure that all powder is removed. Yes, it is time consuming but it is better than an accident.
My friend Norm Gray and fellow writer assisted me as I am not a tech person. And there are a number of features on the RCBS Chargemaster Powder Dispenser & Scale that some reloaders will find desirable. You can set up powder loads and put them into the memory and the next time you use that load it will be ready to go. There is a powder “trickler” function, which works well and is consistent. This set up is for someone who wants precision loads as opposed to someone who loads a lot of ammo and time is a consideration.
There is an included weight to check the Chargemaster's scales for accuracy and the powder machine allows for adjustments as needed. I have found that with a mechanical scale the powder charges seldom vary over ½ grain which will make no difference in a typical rifle load and this unit is as equal or more accurate. Also you can use the Chargemaster scale as a separate tool if the powder measure is not needed, a nice feature.
RCBS Chargemaster Dispenser Drawbacks: In all honesty it takes over 18 seconds to throw a charge therefore if you are loading a bunch of ammo you might want to do it another way. The Chargemaster also takes patience and time to get dialed in for your particular loads. The machine also requires a few performance tweaks to get that level of perfection. See my Video Playlist at the bottom of useful online videos that can help you with the set up.
If you are a match shooter then the exact charge each time may be more important. In addition, to realize that type of accuracy, the cases, bullets, and primers have to be exactly the same or you are wasting time. The rifle also has to have a lot of precision or it won’t be able to take advantage of the other precision items. If you are a serious long range match shooter then this RCBS product might be just the ticket.
The once properly set up the RCBS Chargemaster Gun Powder loads are precise so a match shooter would appreciate that. You can set up 30 charges in its memory as it has a redundant memory function. For success with these precise loads, there are other factors besides powder changes. The cases have to be the same or as near as possible plus the bullets have to be perfectly formed and round to enhance accuracy. Primers have to be the correct choice and the rifle has to have custom dimensions in order to be able to take advantage of the ammo.
In today’s world almost any new rifle is capable of putting 3 shots into an inch at 100 yards. Many guarantee that accuracy with select loads and that includes low dollar ammo models. I have tested quite a few rifles of various brands and they indeed live up to that promise. In fact, they will outshoot their owners most of the time. In order to improve that performance you need the precise ammo and gun if you want to win any matches. That will take time and money to achieve.
For that demanding a shooter the RCBS Chargemaster Gun Powder Dispenser & Scale is another tool to help you perform at that level.

You should have given Eric more credit. You stole his pics and used his video. Why be rude about this? Share that you took the pics from Eric. Not sure this is the image you want to project to the reloading community. Don’t know you but Eric is a stand up guy. Make it Right!
@Steve Clark, Seems like Ammoland’s use fits into the “Fair Use” doctrine to me.
I’ve been thinking about getting one. I may just upgrade to a digital scale.
Rick, Thanks for your comment. I’ll look into the red ones.
Initially it looked pretty cool but after reading all the steps you have to go through —— well, it may be fine for some, if I were still reloading I believe I’d stay with my old trickle charger. To each his own though.
Make sure you understand it has only a one-year warranty. RCBS won’t honor any repair after that warranty period and does not offer any repair service, even if you offer to pay for it. Ask me how I know. I switched to red.

Here I am sitting in front of a peaceful, quiet lake. It’s beautiful. It’s refreshing. There is no rush to go anywhere, no real ‘need’ to do anything. You can sit for hours and read, or knit or just stare off in to the beauty that lays before you. You can have a delicious non-alcoholic beer and the world is just as it should be. Ahh yes, the sense of vacation.
Right, I am a parent. Vacation has a completely different meaning now. You nap when they nap because you were up MUCH earlier then usual because well hey, why not, you’re vacation. She wanted to see if she could wake up earlier than the sun. Plus side, you get a nap before lunch time.
Don’t get me wrong. We a great couple days camping, or should I say glamping. My husband, daughter and I got away to my parents property on the lake for a couple days. Beautiful weather and an absolutely breath taking lake to swim in.
Keeping a toddler entertained while glamping has it’s challenges. They can’t swim alone because well, they can’t swim. Can’t play outside alone because well, there is way to many things they could get into trouble with. Fire pits. Hoses. Bees nest. Pulling someone else flowers and giving them to Mommy as a present. Vacation has a whole new meaning. Dora puzzle book was our saving grace to just sit down for 20 minutes or so.
Did I mention that I am 6 months pregnant as well? No, I didn’t sleep in a tent, remember I said glamping. I slept in a bed (thank goodness) but it was so quiet at night. All I heard was my husband snoring and my child breathing. Running after your child, yelling “Put the goose poop down!” Not exactly my idea of fun. It’s very difficult to run with a basketball attached to you.
I’m not saying this all in a negative light. Don’t get me wrong. We had a blast. It is just very different than what we’re or I am use to.
Vacation with no kids: to get away. To relax and recuperate. Drink your face off. Lay in the sun. Read an entire book. Do as you please at your rate.
Vacation with a toddler: rest up before you go, you’re going to need it.
I am very thrilled with myself that we came home on the Saturday, rather than the Sunday. Oh my goodness the laundry! Unreal. We were gone for 5 days. Plus, my daughter always naps much better in her bed (I get at least 2-3 hour nap out of her).
Some of awesome highlights from our vacation.
**Scarlett ‘jumped’ off the dock and ‘swam’ to the floating dock. So proud of my little girl.
**Soccer was so much fun! Then we combined it with blowing bubbles while making sure the ball didn’t get to far. I got blow the bubbles (it was windy, I just held up the wand).
**It rained one day, when the rain was light or stopped all together, we would gear up and see how far we could get before the rain started again. I’d like to say, we did pretty darn good. Only had a soaking wet dog once.
**Slept in a ‘big girl’ bed for nap times. She wanted to snuggle Mommy. I would lay with her until she fell asleep and then read my book. The Book Thief – excellent book, excellent.
Yes, vacations are very different now. They aren’t so much getting away to relax as they are to get away and make new memories. Your child (or children) to have new experiences. What they like and what they don’t like.
Kids need these experiences. Though the no TV on demand is hard to explain to a two year old. Yes, I brought my laptop with me and if she is lucky when ew’re at home, she gets to watch Dora or Bubble Guppies on it but to get her to understand that we don’t have internet or WiFi… it’s easier to say, ‘Sorry hunny, it’s broken’.
Check out all the fun we had!
Brave girl going swimming. Once she got the hang of jumping in, she just kept going.
My Mum made me a birthday cake while we were camping.
We had a moment together between swimming & bubbles & running &, etc..
They should make a day to recover from parents vacation mandatory! Agreed, the memories are worth it. But it’s hard work!
YES! I think that whats grandparents should be for. Take the wee one(s) for the day so you can regain your strength to carry on for the rest of time! The memories are so worth it, every time. We made some pretty excellent ones.
Oh sounds like you created some wonderful memories. And I hope you get to fit in some extra naps now that you’re home.
Yes, napping is a beautiful thing. I will be so sad when my daughter grows out of naps.

After we finish our time together in Children’s Chapel in the learning center we move back into the church. Once we re-enter the church, children are invited to come up around the altar to see whats happening up close.
Children can come to the altar as they are -- wiggles are welcome.
Baptisms for children are celebrated at Sunday services three times a year and on the afternoon of the Children's Easter Vigil. Families should be active in the community life at All Saints and instruction is required for parents. If you are new to All Saints the first step to baptism is to visit All Saints and then contact Kelly Erin. Adults are baptized at the end of each New Member Class and at the Great Vigil.
Baptisms for 2019 will be January 6, 2019 (all services), April 20, 2019 at 4pm., June 9, 2019 (all services), and Mid-October 2019.
To inquire about baptism for children contact Kelly Erin O’Phelan at kophelan@allsaints-pas.org .
We welcome all children in worship. We have a Creative Worship Space in the chapel where families with young children can sit together on a comfortable rug and play with toys designed for children as young as 6 months. We also offer childcare in Scott Hall for children 4 years and younger every Sunday morning.

First off, you may wonder what is AFR? Well... it's simply yours truly! I know that everybody loves lists, as I do, so I thought that I could come up with some of my own from time to time, just for fun and mostly for the sake of discussion.
When I posted earlier the new blurb for an Eddie LaCrosse novel, what went to my mind was the fact that it's one of the series with a first person narrative that I find the most attractive.
This kind of narrative choice by an author is a dangerous one. Your character will have to be more than compelling and has to have his own voice to be fresh enough to last the entirety of the book as the sole hero. Your character has to be at the center of the action without exception and you can't alternate his PoV with another to bring perspective to the story.
From my review : "[...] Cook skillfully created in Croaker a character I understood and cheered for, the perfect standard bearer for the company from which I would have liked to hear the tale.". The cynical physician could recount the tale of the Black Company for a long time before I grew tired of his delivery.
Even if the interludes are in the third person, the main story retelling Kvothe's past is in the first person. There's no denying it, we all love the red haired lute singer. His story is entertaining enough but it's in his attitude, the fact that he never betrays himself and in his honest way of giving us his tale that he really shines.
The 'James-Bondish' sword for hire, full of humanity, witty remarks and head traumas is a blast. I'll let my reviews speak for themselves : "Under the harshness of his profession, there's a vulnerable and insecure man with a tendency toward the 'princess and orphan saving knight'. Eddie wants to help and he gets easily into trouble but luckily he gets by still alive." or "[...] the narrative is fully his own and he delivers. The guy is genuine, every one of his actions, his skepticism, gruffness, loyalty and altruism felt right. With a character this much believable, one can only care about his hardship and preoccupations. He will unluckily get into a lot of trouble but that's the way I like to find him."
I put him in the special mentions mostly because it's a new voice but a promising one at that.
Wow, that character was awesome but I put him out of the list because it's Sci-fi and I wanted to talk about Fantasy novels but hey, he would have been at the top of my list.
I really liked Warden from Low Town, which I just finished. He's a great mix of humor and cynicism.
On that note, another favorite would be Frank Trigg from the Demon Squad series.
On a totally different note of tone, Beauty by Robin McKinley. She does a great job of showing us growth, change, even in the beast or her ghostly handmaidens that Beauty may not notice--which is realistic--but we do. In an incredibly quiet book, McKinley's Beauty holds it together every word through (okay. The very end is rather corny, but still in the spirit if the book, so I forgive it).
Inquisitor Glokta from The First Law Trilogy by Joe Abercrombie. Brilliant dark humour in an amazing character.

Charlotte announced this morning that she will no longer guide, I know it has been a weighty decision for Charlotte to step away from competitive sport and I have been happy to support her in her decisions, as we have strived successfully to be a team in everything we do. With Charlotte’s help during these past four years, I’ve been able to progress from representing the country internationally at Vancouver 2010 coming 4th and 6th in GS and slalom respectively, to challenging for the top spot and ultimately winning Gold at Sochi 2014. Together, our success on snow has had a positive impact for funding for all of disabled snowsport and brought about a change in people’s perceptions of what an athlete and guide can achieve on and off snow. It is with great pride that I reflect on Charlotte and my accomplishments. To be crowned Paralympic Champions, Britain’s first ever athletes to win gold on snow, able bodied or disabled, man or woman, is just such the highlight. The milestones along the way have required dedication and perseverance from us both, winning Britain’s first world championship medals in alpine skiing, and continuing to amass a total of six world championship medals. Winning our first World Cup, overcoming injury, being nominated for BBC Sports Personality of the year 2014 and of course, being awarded an MBE. I look forward to continuing to succeed in the sport I love and wish the best for Charlotte in everything she endeavours.
