With so much shopping now being ordered online, it is getting easier to generate free donations for the school, charities or community groups you care about.
One way of generating regular free donations is by ordering your grocery shopping online. Nearly half of Brits are current online grocery shoppers, with one in ten doing all their grocery shopping online.
This is good news for us but even better news for the causes we support.
So how do our Supermarkets stack up on the donations they offer?
Waitrose: £3.75 donation for new customers and £1.13 donation for existing customers. However Waitrose regularly increase these donations to £5.63 and £1.88 and even increase the new customer donation to a very generous £20.00.
Sainsburys: £0.75 donation on all grocery shops and so far Sainsbury’s have donated over £55k to good causes via us.
Iceland: Upto 4.5% for new customers and 0.75% for existing customers. Iceland have recently joined TheGivingMachine and offer various donation amounts for new customers depending on the amount of your order.
Asda: £4.13 donation paid for new customers only.
Tesco: Not on our site at the moment but due to return soon. When Tesco were available on our site they paid a £4 donation for new customers only. | <urn:uuid:aa521d23-9832-48bc-9b4c-f68c2b2c0ab9> | CC-MAIN-2018-13 | https://www.thegivingmachine.co.uk/news/view/how-much-can-your-weekly-grocery-shop-raise/ | 2018-03-22T14:08:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-13/segments/1521257647885.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20180322131741-20180322151741-00716.warc.gz | en | 0.940407 | 287 |
Crockpot Beef Tips is my go to meal when I am in a hurry or have a busy evening with the boys. All you need for this delicious meal is two ingredients and a little salt and pepper if desired. It always seem that I have beef tips in my deep freezer because I love using them for cooking, so when the beef tips are on sale at the store I stockpile them. In this recipe I love how the beef tips are fork tender and super tasty. My family likes for me to make some macaroni and cheese and mashed potatoes with this dinner. For the mashed potatoes I use this recipe — Secret Ingredient Mashed Potatoes.

Hence a collection of Binomial Treesmerged together forms a Binomial Heap.
Structural Description of Binomial Heap
Every Binomial Heap follows certain rules or properties.
1. The key of the child node has to be greater or equal to the key of the parent node, this property is termed as the MIIMUM HESP PROPERTY.
2. There cannot be more than one or zero binomial trees for each order of a heap.
3. The root of the tree has to contain the smallest key in the heap.
4. A binomial heap with ‘n’ number of nodes can at max consist of only log n + 1 number of binomial trees in it.
5. Each node of the tree is corresponding to the Binary form of the allocated number ‘n’.
6. The value of the key of a node can never be zero or negative.
Common Operations Performed by a Binomial Heap
· Merge- The most common and simple operation of a binomial heap is to merge two binomial trees in one to form a Binomial Heap. Trivial merging is possible due to their structure. When the trees are being merged together, the root node of the trees are compared, as we know the root node of a binomial heap has to be the smallest, the smallest one among them becomes the new root node.
· Inserting- Inserting an element follows a very simple principle, a new tree is formed with only the element to be inserted and then the tree is merged with the heap.
· Minimum- This operation finds the minimum element in the heap. This can be done is minimum time since only the roots are to be compared and checked for minimum key.
· Delete Minimum- It’s a bit longer process. First we have out find out the minimum element, then separate it from the heap, then we have to form a separate heap of these elements in proper order form smallest to largest excluding the element to be deleted and merge them with the heap back.
· Decrease Key- We know the MINIMUM HEAP PROPERTY, that the child key can never be smaller that the parents’ key, if because of some circumstances the key of a child has become smaller, the property is violated. The node has to be exchanged with its parents, if required, with its grandparents also until the rule is no longer violated.
· Delete- To delete a key or node, the procedure is very simple, we just have to decrease its key to a negative value and the key gets deleted.

If you’ve followed our blog you’ll know exactly what kinds of golfing equipment you’ll need to play the best game of your life, and exactly where you might want to go for this. However, that’s definitely not the end of your preparations if you’re really a serious golfer. We’ve compiled a list of the top 10 essential items you should really have in your bag, but you might not already!
5) Mobile phone
This is probably not an issue for most people in many situations, but often since phones can be distracting, golfers tend to make a point of leaving them behind when playing. Of course, in an emergency this could prove regrettable and you never known when injuries are going to occur with an sport. Plus, while accidents are unavoidable, arguments aren’t, and having your phone with you to quickly check online and clarify a rule could save your game.
4) Medical kit
This is a good idea in most situations, but for golfing it’s less a case of saving someone’s life and more to do with solving any minor problems that might irritate you and affect your game, like sunscreen, sting relief pads, pain relief tablets, plasters and so on. Depending on where you’re playing, it never hurts to have some sunscreen with you too.
3) Extra gloves and socks
These are easy to remember as they weigh almost nothing and you can leave them in your bag until you need them, but in some situations you’ll be glad of these. If you manage to get socks or gloves wet for any reason, it’s much better to switch them and continue enjoying your game. Other items to protect your game from rainy weather should be a given, but these are often forgotten!
2) Business cards
This one depends on the person, but who couldn’t benefit from a bit of networking? It’s a great idea to keep a few cards in a small plastic bag so just in case you run into someone you’d like to stay in touch with, you can initiate that in a professional way. You might even get invited to meet over another round – what could be better?
1) Spare shoelaces
This is something almost nobody would normally think of, in our experience, but in the unlikely event that you do manage to break your shoelaces during a game of golf, this could be a disaster. It’s so simple to get some spares and keep them in your bag, we don’t see why anyone would risk it.
If you keep your golf bag stocked up with all these items, you’re much more likely to keep your mind off the small distractions and get your head in the game. Your best ever performance might be your next! | <urn:uuid:1c1342fa-9939-4c20-a604-3e4b31e94a67> | CC-MAIN-2017-51 | http://dunesgolfclub.com/5-essential-items-for-your-golf-bag/ | 2017-12-11T00:16:53Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-51/segments/1512948511435.4/warc/CC-MAIN-20171210235516-20171211015516-00298.warc.gz | en | 0.960828 | 588 |
A "New", a sensational piece of Magic for children and adults with a three-phase routine!
The magician asks a boy to help him and tells a story of the tailor and the giant. The giant had a big hole in his sock, he wanted to thread the giant needle. The needle and a ribbon are shown, which is wound on a spool.
The magician begins a small competition to see who can thread the needle into the ribbon the fastest! The boy creates it in no fewer than 10 seconds, which is sensational. The ribbon is pulled out of the eye of the needle.
The needle is pushed through the center hole in the spool of thread and when removed, it is seen to have penetrated the ribbon within a split second and is threaded on even though the children were holding the ribbon from each end.
The Needle is shown to be able to pass thru the ribbon several times before the effect is concluded. | <urn:uuid:a90d95a0-f974-4847-8d57-7cdad6cfe737> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://themagicwarehouse.com/cgi-bin/findit.pl?x_item=TA9259 | 2019-06-27T08:45:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560628001014.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190627075525-20190627101525-00111.warc.gz | en | 0.981443 | 190 |

Two banner styles to choose from
Everything about our teardrop banners is completely customizable. In addition to multiple size and base options, each flag can be purchased single sided or double sided.
Single sided display Tear drop Flags
Single sided banner flags are printed on one side, which means the print on the backside of the flag will be in reverse.
Double sided display Tear drop Flags
Double sided banner flags allow you to read the print on both the front side and back side. To create this look, we print two separate teardrop shape flags and sew them together with an additional panel sewn in between. The additional panel ensures that print from one side of the flag cannot be seen through the other side of the flag.

HOW ARE DISPLAY FLAG BANNERS USED?
Using custom printed teardrop banners to promote your business is extremely important, but knowing the best way to use those advertising flags can be a challenge. This is especially true when you choose a unique shape. Fortunately, figuring out when to use teardrop banners is a lot easier than you think. The great thing about teardrop flags is that they are able to entice potential customers and clients when other banners can’t.
When driving down the street, potential customers may not even notice your business, especially if you’re depending on them to see the sign on the front of your building. In order to read your sign properly, the driver has to look out the side window, which isn’t likely to happen. Even if the driver does see your sign, they may have no idea what kind of goods or services you have to offer because they drive by so quickly!
Printed teardrop banners can change all that. They are completely portable, which means you can arrange them on your property however you like. They are especially effective when placed close to the street or sidewalk because drivers can easily see your sign out the front windshield. Whether you choose a double or single sided flag, vehicle passengers are sure to notice your teardrop banners and stop into your shop.
Teardrop banners aren’t just great for established brick and mortar stores. They can also be used at special outdoor events! Because we offer four unique base options, our flags are a great way to catch the attention of passersby at an outdoor sporting event, music concert, farmer’s market, and much more! Our stylish curved flags can even be affixed to an exhibition display so that they can be seen above the crowd.
Advertising indoors is important too, especially if you’re setting up a booth at a tradeshow. With a traditional hanging sign, you’re depending on visitors to look into your booth in order to determine what you have to offer. Some tradeshows can host hundreds of booths, which means yours is likely to get overlooked, but that won’t happen when you use teardrop banners.
Instead of counting on visitors to look into your booth, you can easily set up teardrop banners right outside of, or next to, your booth. The flags can be oriented so that they face oncoming traffic, which means visitors can quickly read your flag without the need to stop and look inside your booth. Just like outdoor exhibition displays, teardrop banners can be affixed to your indoor exhibition display so they can be seen above the crowd.
PROMOTE A SPECIAL DEAL
Whether you choose to use our durable polyester teardrop banners indoors or out, the message and logo can be completely customized. That means you can design a teardrop banner to fit your needs. Instead of using the banner to promote your business, consider using one to promote a special deal!
Want to offer a discount for adult haircuts on Tuesdays? Or maybe you’ve just reduced the price of an oil change in an effort to attract new customers? No matter what kind of business you run, using teardrop banners are a great way to show new customers how they can save money by visiting your store. | <urn:uuid:22feca35-f385-40cb-8ec0-4ec995a2cb80> | CC-MAIN-2019-18 | https://www.australianflagmakers.com.au/teardropbannerflags/ | 2019-04-23T06:50:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-18/segments/1555578593360.66/warc/CC-MAIN-20190423054942-20190423075839-00021.warc.gz | en | 0.90044 | 2,093 |

Baptism is primarily an initiation into the Christian faith and we welcome anyone who wants to explore the possibility of being baptised or having their children baptised at any of our three churches.
Our family friendly fourth Sunday services at Winchelsea and Holy Trinity have the goal of supporting families as they endeavour to teach their children the Christian faith.
Baptisms are held in church services on weeks other than the fourth Sunday each month after some initial preparation with the vicar.

Things might get a little confusing for Kyle Wellwood tonight.
When the Sharks face the Vancouver Canucks at Rogers Arena, he will be making his debut in teal as a third-line center -- the same role he played for Vancouver at his previous NHL stop.
The coincidences go deeper. At times he can expect to be staring across the faceoff dot at Manny Malhotra, who filled that same third-line role for the Sharks a year ago before becoming Wellwood's successor in Vancouver.
But, no, Wellwood doesn't see it as an individual showdown between himself and Malhotra.
"I don't take it like that. Guys change teams all the time," the 27-year-old center said. "Manny's a different player than me."
At his first practice Wednesday, Wellwood was slotted at center between left wing Ben Eager, who also was acquired Tuesday in a trade with the Atlanta Thrashers, and second-year right wing Benn Ferriero.
"I want to help them through as best I can," Ferriero said. "I know the terminology and I know most of the systems now, so I can teach them a little bit of that. Hopefully we mesh well."
Though Wellwood's stint with Vancouver lasted only two seasons, they were eventful ones. He arrived in 2008 as the target of jokes about being overweight and left last spring as a much-admired playoff performer.
"That's certainly exciting to go back to Vancouver and play them right away," he said shortly after the Sharks acquired him. "The fans will get a good laugh out of that, I'm sure."
Those fans may have been on Wellwood's case when the former Toronto Maple Leaf showed up out of shape because he had been recuperating from groin surgeries and a broken leg.
But over two seasons Wellwood became what one columnist described as a cult figure in Vancouver, earning respect for delivering three goals and 10 assists in 22 playoff games over two seasons -- well above his regular-season scoring pace as a Canuck of about one point every three games.
Ultimately, though, the Canucks decided not to offer him a new contract last spring and ended up getting Malhotra's name on a deal that will earn him $7.5 million over three seasons -- far more than San Jose felt it could afford to pay him.
Wellwood said he wasn't upset by Vancouver's decision to go a different direction.
"I didn't want to sign there. They didn't offer anything, but I was hoping to get out of the media spotlight," he said. "I got tired of it."
Was it as simple as being under the Canadian print, TV and digital microscope?
"No," he said. "I just wanted a change. Certainly, I didn't want to go to Russia, but then I ended up here -- a good spot, hopefully."
Since leaving Vancouver, Wellwood has been on a hockey journey that included an unsuccessful tryout with the Phoenix Coyotes and a less-than-satisfying three months in the Russian Kontinental Hockey League.
"It's OK over there, but there's the language and smoking everywhere," Wellwood said of the experience of playing in a town 20 miles outside Moscow for a coach who spoke no English.
Wellwood said he went there "thinking it was something I'd like to do long-term because it's a lot more money than I would have made staying in North America. But the trade-off isn't worth it."
The Windsor, Ontario, native was released from his KHL contract, and that led to a wild 24-hour period in which he first signed with the St. Louis Blues for $650,000, then was claimed off NHL-required waivers by the Sharks on Tuesday.
The waiver rule applies to players who start a season overseas and can be traced to the 1980s when players frequently moved back and forth between Europe and the NHL. The Blues, who similarly lost forward Marek Stavos to the Nashville Predators, are convinced the present system needs tweaking.
Sharks coach Todd McLellan describes Wellwood as "crafty with the puck" and having "a very good mind for the game," and he made it clear that with Torrey Mitchell injured, the newcomer gets an immediate opportunity.
"That's a really good thing for him," McLellan said. "It's not like we're bringing him in here and weaning him in. He's going to get baptism by fire, but I don't think he'd want it any other way."

– What brought you to the industry?
– First, my passion. I love watches and have always wanted to do just that. As a teenager, I worked in manufacturing and wanted to create and design my own
watches. The time came when I had the resources to make my dream come true. I came into the industry and created my first watch without further thought.
– Tell us more about DNA Jacob&Co.
– Take a look at my watch and you will immediately see how different it is from other brands. They are boldness and loud, they are admirable, they are timeless. I combine intricate elements, gems and color in my designs.
This is the DNA of the Jacob&Co brand. DNA is my vision and it dictates what to create. People don’t come to the Jacob & Co boutique for the first watch. People
come to us when they want to buy something special.
– Can you describe the Jacob & Co woman? What does she look like and what does she think about?
– This is not an ordinary woman. She is beautiful, smart, she attracts attention. She is loud and talkative. She loves beautiful watches and jewelry. After all, this is what complements her.
– How do you think, has the industry changed recently?
– Of course. It changes all the time. I’ve been in this business for quite a few years, so I’m not only see changes, but also create them myself.
– Can you compare today’s market and the market 10 years ago?
– It has become more sophisticated, and the customer has become more discerning. People know more about watches than they did before. And most importantly, they know and understand what they want, and, accordingly, are aware of what they are
buying. Buyers are no longer interested in ordinary watches. They want something special. After all, people judge each other by how they dress, what kind of shoes and jewelry they have. Everything has changed in 10 years. Earlier, Chanel and Dior made watches, but then they stopped, because people are looking for more and more extraordinary models so as not to be like everyone else. They don’t want to be mass-market customers anymore. For example, Rolex have always been in fashion, they are classics and every-one who has them will definitely fall in love with them.
I don’t want to compete, we can compete with other brands, because they focus on me and want to make similar products. I passed the most difficult test that
can be: I created something that cannot be repeated and something that will last forever, and this is my advantage.
– Can you imagine what will happen to the market in 10 years?
– The era of digital clocks will continue. More and more Apple-like models will appear in the mass market, but they will be even more mechanized. Unique
watches will be in demand because we are also moving forward and developing new technologies. We already have a plan for the next 20 years, and we will
create something that no one has done before. Each time it becomes more and more interesting to develop a new mechanism and develop a new design on it.
Nevertheless, after 10 years people will still wear and collect classic watches, such is the market.
– What digital tools do you use in your business?
– The future is here and now. Today, a person rarely picks up print catalogs, so we switched to a digital format. Everything is going digital and the best tool for the market is visual content. Digitalization helps businesses and brings us closer to the future.
– What do your customers prefer: going to the store or online shopping?
– We sell a lot of watches just through a phone call. Many buyers, even without fitting, are ready to make a purchase by reading the characteristics and
watching the video. But there are also such customers for whom it is important to visit a store, try on a watch before buying.
– Are your customers afraid to buy jewelry online?
– No, because our key to success is honesty in the quality of customer service control. We know we deliver a great product.
– What do you think about digital models, digital clothing and virtual reality? Are they applicable to your industry?
– Some brands use digitalization and digital models. But I’m a person of the old school, I don’t buy anything online. I want to come and try it myself before.
– How to gain customer’s trust?
– You have to keep your word. And, of course, quality. Quality comes first!
– What do you think of Generation Z?
– Perhaps in 20 years everything will change. Many people are very fond of showing themselves in all their glory. Especially men today like to put on watches and use them to demonstrate their success, believing that a suit and a watch can tell a lot about them. This is to some extent self-defense. If you are good-looking, wear something decent, and also put on a watch, then it makes you feel confident. When I wear a watch, I feel happy. I look at them and I know how difficult it is to make them. Now, of course, I think for other men, but they are the ones I see among my customers: they really need high quality watches and jewelry.
– What is closer to you? Do you speak the same language as your older generation customers or do you speak the language of Generation Z?
– For me, it’s the same thing.
– Which of your products are most demanded? Has COVID influenced buyers’ choices?
– COVID did not affect in any way. People still want to buy decent things. Perhaps people were bored, perhaps they had nothing to do with themselves. Many spent a lot of time on social media. But people haven’t stopped loving good things.
– Let’s get back to you. What inspires you?
– I have many ideas that I can afford to embody, they are inexhaustible. I have my own vision, and I take inspiration from everyone and everything around. I can
just look at the building across the street, admire the shape of its windows, construction and design, and then exclaim: “Oh my God! I love this shape!» and
translate it into some kind of watch.
– What is the perfect vacation for you?
– I really like quiet places. Take Socotra Island, for example. It is located between the Somali peninsula and Yemen. I think this is the most beautiful place, a real paradise! Three days are enough for me to regain strength.
– Have you ever been to Russia?
– Yes of course! Many times. I have many Russian friends and I speak Russian. I really like Russian culture. One of my close friends in Russia is Igor Krutoy! | <urn:uuid:437cebff-d12a-4519-a4c2-23d106a728ae> | CC-MAIN-2022-27 | https://www.numerorussia.ru/post/jewelry-expert-jacob-arabo | 2022-07-02T08:08:22Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-27/segments/1656103989282.58/warc/CC-MAIN-20220702071223-20220702101223-00418.warc.gz | en | 0.973313 | 1,442 |
County building a good idea
After failed bonds and years of talking, it seems Union County will finally get its new courthouse in La Grande.
The new courthouse — coming at a relatively meager price by today’s standards and with the state funding much of the construction — seems to be a good idea.
The state funding is courtesy of the Oregon Legislature. That elected body earmarked $2 million — as part of House Bill 5016 — to complete a $3.1 million construction project for the new courthouse.
The new 2-story, 13,500-square-foot building will have two courtrooms, judge’s chambers and staff space. It will replace the current, outdated and — many contend — inadequate facility, which is situated near the Eastern Oregon University campus in an old hospital building.
The benefits of a new courthouse are obvious. The current facility is plagued by overcrowding and other issues. A 2008 study by Heneberry Eddy ranked the Union County Courthouse dead last in Oregon. That’s when county officials began a lobby campaign with the Legislature because other alternatives — including a bond — did not appear to be feasible.
While many of the details of the courthouse remain unclear — namely where the new building will be built, how the operating costs of a new facility would compare to the costs of the old one and what will happen to the current building — one thing is clear: this project is long overdue. | <urn:uuid:5cf02dca-36dc-41b0-9754-2be3f7c39842> | CC-MAIN-2013-48 | http://www.lagrandeobserver.com/Opinion/Editorials/County-building-a-good-idea | 2013-12-09T09:57:22Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2013-48/segments/1386163955638/warc/CC-MAIN-20131204133235-00055-ip-10-33-133-15.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.951938 | 295 |

The Cardinals, White Sox, Twins and Reds have plans in place for their winter fan fests including autograph sessions and memorabilia sales.
Passes for the 13th annual St. Louis Cardinals Winter Warm-Up will be available starting today. One of the most popular fan events in baseball, the three-day event will take place Saturday, January 17 through Monday, January 19 (Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day). Times are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Monday. The Winter Warm-Up will again be held at the Millennium Hotel in downtown St. Louis.

Panel discussions with team owners, scouts, broadcasters and other baseball officials and personalities will also take place throughout the weekend.
Many players’ autographs are free with your admission pass, while others require an autograph ticket available through a specific additional donation. Please check the Cardinals website (www.stlcardinals.com) in January for details, including players autographing dates, times, and, if required, additional donation amounts. Autograph tickets will be available, until sold out, each day of the Winter Warm-Up at the Millennium Hotel.

Gemma Rogers & the Mil Men came together while living in a squat on Milman Road (NW6).
The quids would run out of the meter so there was nothing else for it but to sit around and tell stories in the darkness – no one could afford candles either.
We caught up with Gemma at her local boozer, we were buying and we were getting nervous when she asked to see the cocktail menu.....whilst she was selecting her poison, we asked her a bunch of questions, here's how we got on.
Please introduce the band and your music in one sentence....
Gemma and the Mil Men tell stories with music which may contain banjo.
The band is called the Mil Men, how did you come about choosing this name?
I lived in a squat on Milman road in Queens Park. Wonderful house. Wonderful people. Freezing though. All the time. The boiler didn't work, none of us had any money to put into the electric meter so we just sat around in loads of jumpers. Matty once put on every item of clothing he owned and stayed like that for two days. We told stories and played instruments which various people had left casually strewn about the place. I'm Gemma. They became the Mil Men.
‘Jenni Peters’ sounds like a dark sounding story, are you up for sharing the inspiration?
A friend disappeared.
‘The Escape’ another great tune, just thought I would let you know that.
Well thank you very much. That was part of the Cowshed Trilogy. I lived above The Cowshed pub on Ladbroke Grove, which has since gone.
You’re opening the Camden Rocks festival, what can the rock goers expect from you?
Mellow ambient jazz with a slice of heavy punk. Nah, not really. Storytelling with essence of folk.
Who are you looking forward to seeing during the festival?
I’ve been told to look out for the Graveltones and also our violinist Clem is in Johnny Borrel's new band so I’m going to see them.
Favourite venue to watch a gig?
In your opinion, what is the BEST album/record ever released?
John Martyn's One World. The grandaddy of chill. The meister of the guitar. The man who showed us all that we don't have to be pigeonholed.
What classic song would you have liked to have recorded and why?
Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen. One of the best songs ever, which seems to be able to withstand any assault.
First gig you ever went to?
East 17. I fancied Terry even though he looked like a car thief. What? I was 11.
How has social media aided you with your music?
I guess it’s allowed us to reach people further afield than just our close mates
There are many good bands and musicians out there, who would you ask the readers of musicmuso to look out for?
Nick Mulvey, Gorgeous George, The Gentle Mystics, Moddi, Llloyd Williams, The Be Good Tanyas. There’s a great website called The Mahogany blog who have their ears firmly to the ground and have introduced me to countless other artists.
If you could describe your music in the form of a fictional character, who would it be?
Captain Hook - we like to deliver an earworm.
Do you think we can ever live in a world where a chicken can cross the road without having its motives questioned?
Only when we discover whether the egg came first.
Who would you like to know has your music on their iPod, MP3 or cassette walkman?
What are your plans for the remainder of 2014?
I want to learn how to play the guitar, finally learn how to drive, record an EP, finish writing a children’s book and complete my degree.
Luckily for me, the cocktail barman was having a sneaky fag and Gemma couldn't wait any longer, 2 pints of 'Mild' it was and on with some short, sharp, quick fire questions....
Coffee or Tea? Coffee
Coke or Pepsi? Rum
Drum machine or the real deal? Real deal.
Mac or PC? Mac
Fry up or Sunday roast? Sunday roast
Lemmy (Motorhead) or Ozzy (Black Sabbath)? Ozzy
CD or Vinyl? CD
Car or Motorbike? Motorbike
Acoustic or electric? Acoustic
Shower or Bath? Bath
Tattoos or Piercings? Tattoos
Robert de Niro or Al Pacino? Al Pacino
God or Google? Google. Sorry God!
Gemma and the Mil Men are playing at The Black Cap in Camden on 31st May at midday as part of Camden rocks fest.
We would like to thank Gemma for sparing her time to answer our questions, we wish her every success at the Camden Rocks Festival and for all future live dates that they are planning. We hope to receive more news from Gemma and Co as and when it's received....

Metro Manila: Intense rainfall seen by 5 pm
MANILA, Philippines — Typhoon Yolanda (international name: Haiyan) will bring heavy to intense rainfall to Metro Manila on Friday afternoon, according to state weather bureau PAGASA.
It will dump 10-20 mm per hour of rainfall from 5 pm or 6 pm Friday. But the rainfall will not be "concentrated" because the typhoon is moving very fast, the bureau added.
Metro Manila is currently placed under typhoon signal number 2. – Rappler.com | <urn:uuid:dd5bcca0-a001-439e-92ad-2fe96db8afd0> | CC-MAIN-2020-29 | https://www.rappler.com/nation/special-coverage/weather-alert/43216-metro-manila-yolanda-warning | 2020-07-04T19:22:44Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-29/segments/1593655886516.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200704170556-20200704200556-00439.warc.gz | en | 0.879111 | 112 |
Hello everyone. Critical Day 3 ended yesterday. No more lamb required. I can go back to eating normally with the exception of the foods that I have gained through the LDA (low dose antigen) process. I still can’t have my almonds, lettuce, tomatoes, oats, etc.).
I got up this morning to the thought of NO MORE LAMB! However, there was still some ground lamb left. At $9.00 a pound I wasn’t going to throw it out so I had a patty with an egg. The egg was delicious – the lamb just didn’t do it for me today. Unfortunately there is still a good amount of lamb stew left over. It doesn’t freeze well and I can’t throw food out. My husband and I will both have stew for lunch. Tonight will be beef, chicken, pork, or anything but lamb!
I am still dealing with a headache and being discombobulated. I also still have itchy arms. More information about my LDA this go around can be found here, here, and here.
I hope you are all having a good day. Me, I need to go and rest and let my head calm down. I came into the office to do a little bit and have been in front of the computer far longer than I thought I would be or needed to be.

Yesterday I posted about preparing and cooking my food in anticipation of the 3 Critical Days for my LDA treatment. Today is Day 1 of the 3-day critical period. This morning for breakfast I had my ground lamb patty and grated potatoes cooked in the famous rendered lamb fat I made yesterday.
Breakfast of Champions.
I don’t miss many of my foods just yet. After all, it is only Day 1 and I haven’t had much of a chance to miss anything except for my cup of hot green tea. I love drinking something warm in the mornings and in the evenings when the house is cool. I had to settle for this today. A wonderful, delicious cup of hot water.
A Delicious Cup of Hot Water
I was going to post a cup of my lamb stew from dinner but I ate it before I remembered I wanted to take the picture. I will share a cup of it with you tomorrow.
In the morning I am off on the 2 1/2 hour each way drive to get my shots. If I am up to it, I will report back when I get home.
On a totally unrelated issues: I still haven’t managed to go in and get my bridge for the tooth I had pulled in September. I was told I needed to wait 6 weeks, then it was Thanksgiving, then it was Christmas, and now I am preparing for my treatment. My upper front two teeth are achy. I think they are starting to spread apart. I am going to call tomorrow before we leave and get an appointment scheduled for 3 weeks from tomorrow to go in and get this taken care of. Just one more darn thing.

What is that
smell aroma throughout my home? Could it be? Dare it be? Yes, it is the overwhelming smell aroma of lamb cooking. Lamb in a pot for stew, lamb fat being rendered down to use when cooking my potatoes and ground lamb patties in the morning. Yes, I am prepping for my LDA (low dose antigen therapy) treatment. Tomorrow starts Day 1 of my three critical days. What’s on the menu for those days?
Breakfast: Ground Lamb Patty & Organic Potatoes fried in none other than rendered lamb fat.
Lunch: Lamb stew and a glass of cold sparkling water.
Dinner: Lamb stew and a glass of cold sparkling water.
Snacks: More Lamb Stew or a naked baked potato or sweet potato.
(Repeat Day 1)
(Repeat Day 1 & 2)
WARNING! THE PICTURES YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE MAY BE TOO MUCH FOR THE VEGETARIAN OR VEGETARIAN AT HEART. THERE WILL BE PICTURES OF MEAT, MORE MEAT, AND MEAT FAT. THERE WILL, HOWEVER, BE A PICTURE OF VEGETABLES.
Step 1 – Get the lamb roast on a cutting board and prepped for cutting into cubes.
Step 2 – Cube lamb roast and place in large Dutch Oven.
Cubed Lamb Roast
Step 3 – Place fatty pieces in skillet to render down into fat to be used for frying potatoes and ground lamb during breakfast meals.
Fatty Lamb Pieces
Cooked Lamb and rendered Lamb Fat
Step 4 – Cut up potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, celery, and cabbage.
Cut up veggies.
This is what the final project should look like.
Dinner is ready!
Tomorrow I will post a picture of my wonderful lamb breakfast of a ground lamb patty, potatoes, and a glass of water.

Bless my dear husband. Once again, he drove me to San Francisco for my LDA treatments. We left at 8:00 a.m. for an 11:00 a.m. appt. The drive usually takes 2 1/2 hours giving him a little leeway with traffic. Traffic was great and we got into the city an hour early. Since we were early he decided to make a quick stop at the SF Giants’ store to look for some t-shirts. He made it back to the car in plenty of time to get back on the highway and head to my doctor appointment. Then we got lost. Somehow we went the wrong direction and the highway was nowhere in sight. We asked a taxi cab driver who was a jerk. Then we got directions from city workers but I think we missed the last part of the directions because we still didn’t make it to the highway. Finally my husband asked a security guard getting into his car how to get to the highway. He started to give us directions and then said to my husband to just turn around and follow him and he would take us there. I have no idea how much further out of his way he went for us but it was much appreciated. With all the getting lost and asking for directions we made it to my appointment right on time.
I met with the new doctor and had to give him some background on me and talk a little about some questions I had regarding my protocol and if things had changed any. He felt that because I had been on the therapy for five years that I could start adding foods back in at 7-10 days instead of 15. PERFECT! My daughter gets here about that time and I will not have to miss out on many foods because of dietary restrictions. I really enjoyed this new doctor and look forward to working with him more.
The downside to my treatment, as it is every time, is the headache. Oh the headache. And the welts where the injections are given and the itchiness. There is only one that actually gives me a lot of trouble.
My poor arm!
I am home and yes my headache is with me (nothing unusual about that). I got it about 3o minutes after I left the office. My brain is also a little fuzzy and my concentration is not so great. On the positive side is that I am not itching nearly as much with the inhalant component of the treatment as I usually do. Maybe this is a good sign that I won’t be flailing my arm around tonight to distract myself. I am not allowed to scratch the wheals, put anything on them or ice them.
I ate my lamb stew on the way home as my dear husband munched on his Jack in the Box burger and fries.
I received three injections today. In my left arm I received the Inhalants (pollens, dust, molds).

I just finished eating day two of ground lamb and hash browns for breakfast. My lunch time meal of lamb stew is heating on the stove in preparation for the thermos that I have finally purchased. My water is in the car, my ipod has been charged, and my Kindle is charged and loaded with a new book. I am preparing for the 2 1/2 hour trip each way to get my LDA. I am anxious to get it done and to be one day closer to finishing the critical 3 days and to getting all those yummy foods back into my diet.
Today I am meeting with a new doctor because my doctor left the practice. I am looking forward to meeting the new doctor (a naturopath) and getting and having him sign off to continue with the protocol there.
I am not looking forward to the headache that usually follows for a day and the itching arms that usually last for 2-3 days. In the end it is all worth it. If I am not feeling too uncomfortable later today I will post more. I will also try to respond to all comments as well.

Breakfast for LDA
Today is day 1 of the 3 critical day period for my LDA treatment. I made myself a lamb patty and some hash browns. My beverage of choice (or the only one allowed me) was a glass of water (Mountain Valley Spring Water in a glass bottle). You can read more about Day 1 of the critical day diet and LDA on a previous blog post here.

NOTHING SAYS LDA LIKE THE SMELL OF LAMB COOKING IN THE KITCHEN!
My lamb stew ingredients.
Yes, it is that time again! My housework is done and I am prepping for my three-day critical LDA (low dose antigen therapy) period. The lamb fat is rendered into lard for my breakfast hash browns, the ground lamb is thawing for breakfast starting tomorrow, and my lamb stew is on the stove in anticipation of tomorrow’s lunch and dinner and lunch and dinner (or snacks)
Lamb Meat in the Dutch Oven.
for the next three days. You can read more about prepping for LDA here.
Dinner is ready!

Discombobulated: vb. to throw into confusion
Discombobulate kind of sounds like you feel when you’re disoriented: bouncing around in several directions at once.
That is how I am feeling today. It has been crazy the last two days. Yesterday I had my IV and relaxed and read my book followed by having to take my mother to an urgent care to have her hand x-rayed.
This morning I got up and while I ate made my list (I know there goes the list thing again). There was a lot on it but things that I could easily get done before this afternoon’s drive to my daughter’s to get my hair cut (hooray). Suddenly I had volunteered to drive to the eye doctor’s office to pick up my daughter’s contacts and take care of returning my glasses that were hurting my face since I was already there.
I got home and my husband needed me to follow him while he drove our old truck to a place he was going to sell it. As he was turning into the driveway, he ran out of gas right in the middle of the street. I immediately turned on my emergency flashers so we wouldn’t both be rear-ended and he frantically found someone to help him push it into the driveway.
Okay so all the non-list items were taken care of and I began to tackle “the list”. The first thing on it was to phone my LDA doctor’s office to order some supplements. Then things really fell apart.
When asked by the receptionist taking my order which doctor I saw, I got the news that he was no longer in practice there. A new number was given for me to call. I asked, is he going to still be doing LDA? They didn’t know. I was told that there was another doctor in the practice that also did LDA and I could see him if I didn’t want to change offices. CHANGE! That is a huge issue for me. I have had my EPD doctor close his office then pass away, then my first LDA doctor closed his office and passed away, now this LDA doctor had moved. I don’t know what to do. Do I stay and see the other doctor in an office I can tolerate? Do I make a 2 1/2 hour trip to my doctor’s new office to see if I am ok there before my next LDA assuming he is still going to do this treatment? I just don’t know. I am discombobulated!
As I sit here writing this post, I am staring at my list and suddenly it looks like this big HUGE monster. The simplest of tasks seems so much more complicated.
Where do I begin? I think I will look for something that sounds the most relaxing – getting my April and May birthday cards addressed. The rest? Well it just may have to wait.
Awhile back in a post titled, Identification Please, I talked about my medic alert bracelet and what my inscription says. This is a list of what medic alert has on file for me “in case of an emergency”. A few months back, my doctor’s PA asked if a certain medication was okay for me. I couldn’t remember if it had been a problem before because my list is long. Years ago, when I was constantly being given something for all my maladies, I knew all that I was allergic/sensitive to without blinking my eyes. Time has passed and the list is less easily remembered. So, I just had him call medic alert and they immediately faxed him this list.
MEDICATIONS (CANNOT USE PLASTIC CATHETER NEEDLES)
Benadryl (all antihistamines)
Dextrose (corn allergy)
Primaxin (this caused the episode that almost killed me)
Sulfites & Sulfa
Synthroid (lost due to an overdose – the pharmacy gave me the wrong dose and I took it for over a week – over time, I have been able to take this again)
Gapabentin (Comp only) – can’t even take that any more
Estradiol (Compounded only)
Progesterone (Comp only)
Phenol (Plastics, etc)
Zephiran (benzalkonium name brand)
Methylmercaptan (in rubber & gas)
FOODS NOT ALLERGIC TO – After looking at this list and then the list of foods I was allergic to in the beginning you can see what I gave up and how hard it was to eat. It took about two to three months on the provocation/neutralization treatments to slowly get some foods back as long as I took the shots every four days. Slowly with this treatment and then later LDA, I gained foods that I never thought I would eat again.
Crab (sulfite free)
FOODS ALLERGIC TO – after taking injections from the Environmental Health Center and now my LDA treatments – I have gained many foods back. I was so sick and my body was fighting so hard that it literally thought everything was the enemy. I lived in a hyper-reactive state for so long. My body still lives in this state but it reacts less violently to some things than in the beginning. Foods that I can now eat as long as I don’t abuse them or foods that I can eat after the two weeks following my LDA are shown in red below.
Apples – organic only
Black Eyed Peas
Chocolate (can have mold)
Coconut (no sulfites)
Concentrated Juices (mold)
CORN (ANAPHYLACTIC) – this was an amazing recovery.
Green Bell Pepper
Oat – steel-cut only
Tea (Black – mold)
Grape/Grapeseed Oil Cod
Fabrics (Cotton, etc)

The world's best foods are simple and comforting, and that is exactly how I would sum up panelle. A close cousin to falafel, panelle hails from Sicily and is made from garbanzo-bean flour. It looks like tofu, and tastes as creamy as cheese. When I first saw it described on Lidia's Italy, I thought I must be dreaming. It's my fantasy food: low-fat, tasty, creamy, inexpensive, and simple to make. The traditional way to eat these garbanzo flour cakes is simply on a sesame bun. I dolled it up a little with a few slices of tomato, a little vegan mayo, and some rustic bread. I loved it from the first bite. My mind is racing coming up with new ways to use this wonderful concoction.
Find Lidia's recipe HERE.
(The only thing I did differently is to add 1 "Not Chicken" boullion cube to the water for extra flavor.) | <urn:uuid:b86f895a-6d22-426c-9736-0f307d7cf1e4> | CC-MAIN-2014-49 | http://chubbyvegetarian.blogspot.com/2009/08/panelle.html | 2014-11-23T16:57:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-49/segments/1416400379555.49/warc/CC-MAIN-20141119123259-00145-ip-10-235-23-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.957622 | 203 |

Vaccination efforts have ramped up in the Philippines and now includes those aged 5-11. This adds an extra layer of protection for children during physical interactions in the new normal, and is also ideal as schools participate in the pilot test of face-to-face classes.
Schools are also implementing health and safety measures to protect teachers and students during in-person learning. With the help of Nestlé Wellness Campus (NWC), they are also able to promote nutrition, health and wellness through 7 timely and relevant Healthy Habits. These include Choose Nutritious and Varied Options; Manage Portions; Choose to Drink Water and Milk; Play Actively; Enjoy Meals Together; Keep Good Hygiene; and, Care for the Planet.
Ricardo P. Cruz Sr. and its steady face-to-face transition
Ricardo P. Cruz Sr. Elementary School in Taguig City is among the schools that experienced blended learning challenges. Principal IV Dr. Cipriano M. Bisco, Jr. shared, “During the start of blended learning, our teachers, even the parents and students themselves, had to adjust as they were not familiar with the new tools and modalities. There were also concerns on the distribution and collection of modules, and connectivity which prevented students from keeping up with classes.”
Nestlé Wellness Campus has already been a long-time partner of the school. Bisco said, “When the pandemic hit, they continued to support us through soft copies of the modules, which we shared with students so they could learn with their parents. Their support really allowed us to foster a sense of community while also promoting the value of wellness.”
Ricardo P. Cruz Sr. is one of the first schools in the country to participate in the in-person pilot. Out of the 5,458 student population and 145 teachers, 163 students and 11 faculty staff who are fully vaccinated are currently participating.
The school has dedicated “Wellness Corners” in classrooms where students can learn more about NWC’s 7 Healthy Habits. These focus on the value of proper nutrition and active lifestyle, as well as bonding and eating with the family and other practices like sustainability and solid waste management. MAPEH Coordinator Rady D. Delos Reyes shared, “This is where we show the different Healthy Habits story animations that we produced to keep students engaged during their learning breaks.”
“We are grateful for all the support being given by NWC. Everyone is motivated to participate and join, even the parents, and many talents are being developed. As we are well into our transition to face-to-face, we hope to continue instilling the value of wellness while ensuring everyone’s safety virtually and on the ground,” said Bisco.
Bagong Silangan gears up for early 2022 face-to-face classes
Another school that has resumed face-to-face classes is Bagong Silangan Elementary School in Quezon City. From their 8,471 student population and 235 teachers, around 106 Grade 3 students and parents have expressed interest in participating with 12 teachers.
In preparation, School Wellness Coordinators Teacher Joyce J. Jagong and Teacher Estela Marie C. Sabiniano shared that aside from the safety measures on ground, having fully vaccinated teachers and staff was one of their top priorities to help protect the students.
When it comes to nutrition, health and wellness, Jagong shared how Nestlé Wellness Campus helped Bagong Silangan during the pandemic. “We saw how much the children and parents improved. They ate more nutritious meals and spent more time together, even participating in dancercise.” Sabiniano added that the program also reinforced proper handwashing, which students thoroughly practiced.
They hope that NWC’s 7 Healthy Habits and different safety protocols will help ease fears and concerns about face-to-face learning. “When parents see the strict implementation of health and safety measures and also the healthy habits practices, they’ll be inspired as they see that there really is a safe environment for their kids,” Sabiniano explained.
Jagong also expressed their gratitude towards the program. “We are thankful to the entire Nestlé Wellness Campus program because of the benefits not only to our school but to communities across the country. We really believe that this program is able to help a lot of people, especially during this time.”
“Nestlé Wellness Campus has always been a strong partner of public schools and these communities inspire us to keep going,” said Kevin Carpio, Nestlé Wellness Campus Project Lead and Corporate Nutritionist at Nestlé PH. “As the Kasambuhay sa Kalusugan of Filipino families, we remain committed to supporting them and in promoting wellness for many years to come. We thank and honor these communities for helping us encourage more Filipino families to live healthier, happier lives in the unfolding normal,” he added. | <urn:uuid:07e4fb95-35c1-4ef8-93f2-2a93ba064d66> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.dotdailydose.net/2022/03/17/reinforcing-the-value-of-wellness-as-face-to-face-classes-resume/ | 2023-10-01T07:48:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510810.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20231001073649-20231001103649-00579.warc.gz | en | 0.967355 | 1,041 |
We have to use the mysql encrypt() function to store passwords in a database. Does anybody know how to use java to verify if a password submitted by a user matches the mySQL encrypted password in the database please? Many thanks.
If you have a method in mysql to compare a value with an encrypted value column of your table, you can use the same method in SQL statement of your JDBC code. JDBC API simply passes SQL to the database. -Sainudheen

yes thanks, but it seems that every time the mysql encrypt( )function is called it returns something different. For example select encrypt("password"); run several times will return a different value each time.
I would suggest using the MD5 function in MySQL to store the passwords. This ensures a standard hash for any 3rd party app that must authenticate to the database somehow. Usage of the MD5 function can be found here When you use the encrypt function, it is using the same thing as the UNIX crypt command which requires a "salt" to be given to the algorithm. The salt is not required, so when you don't provide the "salt" I think MySQL randomly chooses one for you. So that is probably why it is different everytime. | <urn:uuid:aa7419e6-080b-4cd4-ac04-1538c018b873> | CC-MAIN-2015-18 | http://www.coderanch.com/t/299367/JDBC/databases/mysql-encrypt | 2015-04-28T18:49:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-18/segments/1429246661916.33/warc/CC-MAIN-20150417045741-00183-ip-10-235-10-82.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.901378 | 262 |
The five chief points of Calvinism are:
or particular election.
(2) Irresistible grace.
(3) Original sin, or the total depravity of the natural man, which
renders it morally impossible to believe and turn to God of his own
(4) Particular redemption.
(5) Final perseverance of the saints.

Today we are going to talk about this cutest baby stripy espadrille shoes that are presented on the photos. I was doing a research to make an article about something interesting later and share it with you.
I never stop only on one project and I always keep searching for something more to write about, but when I bumped into the pattern of this espadrille shoes I stopped all my searches and started making an article.
I think that this article will be very popular and hope that many of our website users will like it as much as I did when I found it and if so and you will like it share the article with your friends and all you have to do is follow the instructions that are given in the pattern step by step and you will get the result just like the ones that are shown on the photos.
Enjoy and good luck

PETROS is a worldwide data bank of major element chemical analyses of igneous rocks compiled for research and teaching purposes by Dr. Felix Mutschler and staff at Eastern Washington University. PETROS version 6.1 includes 37,300 major element chemical analyses divided into 307 major groups representing geographic areas or petrologic provinces. Also included are 468 average igneous rock compositions calculated by various authors, a bibliography of information sources, and complete format/operating instructions for PETROS.
In compiling PETROS, as few analyses as possible were rejected, allowing data bank users to exercise their own judgement on data values. Sources include published works, theses, and in a few cases, unpublished analytical data, all of which are referenced in the bibliography. Generally, only those analyses which included determinations of at least eight major oxides were accepted. Some quality control was exercised, and duplicate analyses, where possible were eliminated. Latitude/longitude information for samples is to the nearest one degree.
An accompanying program listing in FORTRAN for searching PETROS is included with the data file, along with complete format documentation.
NGDC archives a wide variety of digital marine geology data collections, paper reports, microfilm, etc. containing sediment and hardrock data. Many of the digital files are available for direct download.

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Catalan political parties officially kicked off their campaign for a December 21 regional election on Tuesday, with separatist candidates either in exile or in jail and polls pointing to a tight race.
The first rallies were held with Catalonia’s sacked vice president Oriol Junqueras and three other separatist leaders still in prison after a Supreme Court judge on Monday turned down their request to be freed while they are investigated over their role in the wealthy northeastern region’s independence drive.
Catalan leader Carles Puigdemont meanwhile campaigned by video conference from Belgium, where he escaped to after his region’s parliament declared independence on October 27, claiming he would not get a fair trial at home, AFP reported.
“They (Madrid) want to raise as many difficulties as possible so we can’t campaign on an equal footing with the other candidates,” he said in his address to his party’s rally in Barcelona just before midnight.
Voters “can choose between nation and submission, they can choose between Catalan institutions or dark characters in Madrid”, added Puigdemont, whose extradition has been requested by Spain.
Madrid wants to prosecute Puigdemont and the other jailed separatist leaders for rebellion — which carries a maximum 30-year prison sentence — and sedition for their role in the independence drive, as well as for misusing public funds.
A yellow ribbon to signify support for the jailed separatist leaders occupied an empty seat that had been reserved for Puigdemont at the rally.
A yellow ribbon also occupied the empty chair reserved for Junqueras at his party’s opening rally in the town of Vic about 100 kilometers (60 miles) further north.
Madrid called the new elections after the independence declaration, while dismissing Catalonia’s government and suspending the region’s autonomy. It hopes the polls will restore normality to the region.
Twelve of the 13 members of the sacked Catalan government are standing in the election, with Puigdemont and Junqueras competing to head the separatist camp.

Sunday’s Last Quarter Moon, taking place late Saturday evening on the West Coast and…
August is here and it’s heating up. Significant astrological events are occurring: a full moon lunar eclipse on August 7th turbocharging our emotional independence, followed by a new moon solar eclipse on August 21st generating great courage and setting us up for growth in a way that can be felt for the next six months.
Sounds exhilarating… but all this turbocharged energy can also be exhausting.
An easy way to take care of yourself this month is through flower essences, which offer simple portable remedies to support you during the ups and downs. Flower essences work on the mental and emotional – versus the physical – bodies and as such do not create any direct bio-chemical changes to the system.
One flower essence remedy that can be helpful in this time is Sweet Pea, which supports us by easing our ability to find, and create community and feel a sense of place on the Earth. Sweet Pea addresses the disconnect we feel from nature that comes through living in an increasingly on-line world, situated in urban and suburban environments.
How to use Sweet Pea Flower Essence:
Purchase a bottle here: Flower Essence Society: http://store.fesflowers.com/flower-essences/quintessentials-flower-essences/sweet-pea.html.
Take 4 drops twice a day – under your tongue, or on a band-aid placed on the inside of your wrist (this method works best for kids).
Begin taking the formula immediately as it will create a foundation of stability for the coming month. Dose daily throughout August for support and stability.

Probe of troopers expands to NYPD
Drug task force members from State Police, NYPD face scrutiny
RED HOOK — On a frigid Sunday night in February, an unmarked SUV assigned to a federal drug task force struck a utility pole before veering off an isolated stretch of Route 9G on the northern edge of Dutchess County.
Francis Stabile III, a State Police senior investigator assigned to the task force, was alone in the vehicle and emerged from the wreckage unharmed but a little wobbly, according to a witness.
It’s unlikely that Stabile could have known at the time that his crash would trigger a broader investigation — of him as well as the other state troopers assigned to the DEA’s 150-member, Manhattan-based Drug Enforcement Task Force.
The ongoing investigation, which had been kept secret by the State Police, is examining the time and attendance records as well as the work habits of the task force’s members from the State Police, according to sources briefed on the investigation. Recently, those sources said, the New York Police Department also began examining those same issues for its officers assigned to the task force.
Apparently as fallout from the investigation, at least two state troopers assigned to the task force suddenly retired this year.
Investigators have compared the work hours of task force members with their whereabouts using E-ZPass toll records and data from license-plate readers across the New York metropolitan area, the sources said.
Last year, a similar probe by the FBI and U.S. attorney’s office in Boston resulted in the arrests of five current and former Massachusetts state troopers accused of padding their incomes by putting in for thousands of dollars in overtime they allegedly never worked. The Justice Department pursued that case, which focused on troopers who patrolled the Massachusetts Turnpike from Boston Harbor to the New York border, under a statute that makes it a federal crime to steal from an agency receiving federal funding.
It's unclear whether the State Police in New York have consulted federal authorities on their investigation. An agency spokesman said their policy is to not comment on internal investigations, although the agency has in the past.
“Integrity is paramount at the New York State Police and any allegations of misconduct are thoroughly investigated,” said Beau Duffy, a State Police spokesman. “Individuals found to have violated state law or division policy will be held fully accountable.”
The internal investigation began when Stabile reported the Feb. 18 crash the following day — allegedly after he was informed by an auto shop that the vehicle had sustained thousands of dollars in damages.
State Police internal affairs investigators started examining the circumstances of the crash, including the actions of the responding troopers. But their focus quickly shifted to why Stabile was driving his undercover SUV four counties north — more than 100 miles — of the task force’s Manhattan headquarters while he was off-duty. Stabile’s residence is about eight miles south of the crash scene, according to public records.
Nick Petrone, whose fence was splintered by the newer-model GMC Acadia registered to the DEA’s task force, said a piece of the passenger-side mirror is still embedded in a utility pole along the highway, about 30 feet south of where the SUV left the road.
According to a police report, Stabile told the responding trooper that a deer had jumped in front of his vehicle and caused him to lose control. The report said the deer "fled scene."
Petrone, who had installed the fence to keep cars from veering onto his front lawn, said Stabile initially tried to back the vehicle off the fence, but the damage was too severe.
“When I saw him trying to get out, I called 911,” Petrone said. “The guy said, ‘I’m good to go.’ … I told him, 'You’re not going anywhere — there’s a piece of wood sticking right through your radiator.'”
Petrone hovered around the front of his property as volunteers from the Clermont Fire Company arrived to help.
He said Stabile, 47, was talking very slowly and appeared to have trouble keeping his balance.
“He thought he can just drive away, like it was nothing,” Petrone said. "I’ve been around enough people that drink to know when you’re drunk."
Trooper Nicole Van Hoesen, who graduated from the State Police Academy in July 2014, arrived at the scene minutes after the 9:45 p.m. crash. Because Stabile outranked her, agency policy required they call a member who holds a higher rank than Stabile to investigate the crash. That never happened.
“He said a deer jumped out on the road,” Petrone recalled of Stabile’s conversation with Van Hoesen. “He said he was on the job … and he mentioned somebody’s name.”
Petrone said the trooper treated Stabile “nice” and had him sit in the back of a cruiser without handcuffs. The police report on the incident does not indicate whether a field sobriety test was administered.
Stabile, who has not responded to several requests for comment, was not ticketed.
When a tow truck pulled the SUV off the fence, two beer cans were under the vehicle, Petrone said.
Not long after the crash, Petrone said a State Police lieutenant, Joseph C. Kolek, who is assigned to internal affairs, interviewed him about what he saw that night. Petrone said that he told Kolek and another investigator with him that Stabile appeared to have been drinking prior to the crash.
Stabile was suspended after the incident. But in late June, about two weeks after the Times Union asked questions about the case, the Red Hook resident was reassigned to a job in "records" at State Police headquarters in Albany. He was stripped of his senior investigator title and now holds the rank of uniformed sergeant.
A State Police spokesman declined to comment on Petrone's account and the information he said he provided to internal affairs investigators.
"The vehicle and traffic law provides minimum requirements for when any police officer may conduct certain field and chemical tests upon a suspected drunk driver," said Duffy, the State Police spokesman. "The legal standard applies regardless of who the suspected driver is and provides no exception for police officers suspected of driving under the influence."
Thomas Mungeer, president of the New York State Troopers PBA, said Van Hoesen and a second trooper who responded to the scene were both interviewed multiple times by internal affairs investigators but have not been accused of wrongdoing.
"A civilian is not trained to detect (intoxication)," Mungeer said. "If my troopers did something wrong and it could be proven, IAB (Internal Affairs Bureau) would report that."
Mungeer said he is aware of the ongoing investigation of the task force members. Nearly all of those assigned to that DEA unit are investigators and not part of the Troopers PBA, he noted.
"I know it's ongoing," Mungeer said. "I don't, myself, know what's going on with it."
Christopher M. Quick, president of the New York State Police Investigators Association, which represents approximately 1,200 State Police investigators and senior investigators, could not be reached for comment.
Before his suspension earlier this year, Stabile had been one of multiple State Police investigators assigned to the federal Drug Enforcement Task Force, which includes members of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency and has for decades taken on some of the largest drug cases in the country. DEA Special Agent Erin Mulvey, a spokeswoman for the DEA in New York City, previously confirmed that Stabile had been driving a federally leased police vehicle but said the State Police were responsible for investigating the crash.
It's unclear whether the investigation of the task force members will remain administrative or be expanded if any potential criminal violations are uncovered. If the case remains internal, the agency will likely not reveal its findings or whether anyone was disciplined.
State Police Capt. James Murphy, who had been as supervisor assigned to the drug enforcement task force, retired on May 30. On April 16, State Police Investigator Orlando Rodriguez, another State Police investigator who had been assigned to the task force, also retired.
A spokesman for Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo did not say whether the governor had been aware of the probe, but said, "the executive chamber does not get briefed on IAB investigations. ... No one is above the law and we expect any investigation to be pursued solely on the facts and the merits." | <urn:uuid:c28587df-7762-4f70-9643-484a0c45b083> | CC-MAIN-2019-13 | https://www.timesunion.com/news/article/Trooper-s-crash-triggered-broader-probe-13144518.php | 2019-03-25T14:57:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-13/segments/1552912203991.44/warc/CC-MAIN-20190325133117-20190325155117-00415.warc.gz | en | 0.975029 | 1,801 |

Groonga 2.0.5 has been released
Groonga 2.0.5 has been released!
How to install: Install
There are four topics for this release.
- Supported near search by
'column *N "word1 word2 ..."'in script syntax
- Improved documents
- Improved groonga-httpd
- Improved geo_distance to reduce limitations
Supported near search by
'column *N "word1 word2 ..."' in script syntax
groonga has prepared syntax for near search, but it does not work.
The operator does near search with words
'word1 word2 ...'. Near search searches records that contain the words and the words are appeared in the near distance.
The unit of near distance is the number of characters in N-gram family tokenizers and the number of words in morphological analysis family tokenizers. Near distance is always 10 for now.
The syntax for near search is
'column *N "word1 word2 ..."'.
The documentation was updated. We will update the documentation continuously in the future.
groonga has specific syntaxes which specify conditional expressions. It is similar to ECMAScript.
We improved the description about basic ECMAScript related syntaxes, some literals, specific operators for searching and so on.
There are a schema definition and sample data with execution example, you can try examples immediately.
There are two points which improved groonga-httpd functionality.
- groonga-httpd supports to customize base URI prefix
- groonga-httpd supports multiple databases
First, the functionality of customizing base URI prefix was added to groonga-httpd.
There were the limitation which supports only
/d/command?parameter1=value&... request form as well as groonga HTTP server.
This release improves the functionality of customizing base URI prefix by adding
groonga-httpd accepts not only /d/ prefix request form, but also the others.
groonga_base_path, you can customize
groonga-httpd to restrict the executable commands which depends authentication.
Here is the example which restricts shutdown command using groonga_base_path
groonga-httpd supports multiple database.
There is the limitation that groonga HTTP server can handle only 1 database per process.
This release improves the functionality to be able to handle database per location by using
groonga-httpd can handle multiple databases as if one data source.
See configuration-directives about directive and setting details.
Improved geo_distance to reduce limitations
Groonga provides built-in functions which calculates the value of distance between two geo graphical points.
And you can select the method of approximation how to approximate the geographical features within square approximation, spherical approximation or ellipsoid approximation.
There are the limitations that geo_distance can not calculate the value of distance across the meridian, the date line or the equator accurately.
This release partially improves the problem if you use square approximation.
For example, if there are points in southern hemisphere, geo_distance returns the accurate value of distance even thought the line connecting the two points accorss the boundary.
See Release 2.0.5 2012/07/29 about detailed changes since 2.0.4.

2017 FESPA-Federation of European Screen Printers Associations in Hamburg, Germany
FESPA (Federation of European Screen Printers Associations) Europe 2017 was held for five days from May 8 to 12 in Hamburg, Germany. Founded in 1962, FESPA is an international gathering of 37 associations related to screen printing, digital printing and textile printing.It is an association that aims to share industry knowledge and to help businesses in their field grow worldwide. FESPA is the world’s largest global printing exhibition, attracting more than 23,000 digital printing industry professionals and visitors from 130 countries around the world.
This was the fourth year that KISCO has exhibited at FESPA and our purpose was to continue to promote our company and the PAPIJET brand. In particular this year we highlighted our new PAPIJET inks for Kyocera heads.
The show was a good opportunity to understand the trends of the digital textile printing (DTP) market and to meet with related companies and potential customers. This year, the KISCO President visited the booth and saw that it has become a place where we can give a detailed introduction of KISCO to our customers. The connections we made at FESPA will enable us to continue to expand our promotion of the KISCO and PAPIJET brands over the next year. | <urn:uuid:89c53b8d-e28d-42a2-a035-f47dd8b0175e> | CC-MAIN-2021-31 | https://www.kisco.co/kisconews/fespa-europe-2017-812-may-2017/ | 2021-08-05T07:13:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-31/segments/1627046155458.35/warc/CC-MAIN-20210805063730-20210805093730-00335.warc.gz | en | 0.953261 | 281 |
City moves to take over property sold by Scouts to Canadian Mental Health Association
The provincial branch of the Canadian Mental Health Association is disappointed St. John’s is expropriating property it has a deal to buy.

City council Monday night voted to expropriate the land and building at 15 Terra Nova Rd., currently owned by the Boy Scouts of Canada, which recently put the property up for sale.
The city made a purchase offer but was outbid by the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA), which is looking for a new home, said executive director George Skinner.
“We’ve been looking for space, a home for CMHA, but also to put a place, a centre in St. John’s that we could develop over time to raise the profile of mental health, particularly mental illness, in the community, which we believe is a central issue for most communities in the province,” said Skinner.
“We thought the Scouts property was an ideal place to do that.”
Skinner said he was surprised to learn Monday morning of the city’s plans to appropriate the land.
The association had reached a deal with the Scouts three weeks ago to buy the property.
“It’s very disappointing,” Skinner said. “This was not just an office space for us, but it was a chance to profile mental health in the heart of the capital city of Newfoundland and Labrador, and to work with other groups, including council, to make the mental health issue what it should be in our community, and be in close proximity to the university, to Health Sciences, St. Clare’s, on a bus route.”
Coun. Art Puddister said the land, sandwiched as it is between city-owned properties — Metrobus depot lands to the east and recreation land west and north — should go back to the city, which sold the land to the Scouts for a dollar in the early ’70s.
“It’s an excellent fit for the taxpayers, and this piece of property, which I consider a valuable piece of property, should stay in public ownership,” he said. “We have many needs here in the city. We could refurbish that building and have one of our stand-alone departments be relocated there.”
The next step is for the city to negotiate compensation with the Scouts for the land. “Our staff will certainly negotiate in terms of what we’d pay for the building and so on, so we’re not just walking in and expropriating a piece of property,” said Coun. Tom Hann. “We will talk to Scouts Canada, staff will, and then we will negotiate a proper sale price for it.”
Deputy Mayor Ron Ellsworth noted the offer the Scouts had already received for the property establishes fair market value for the property, so the organization isn’t being undercut by the city, and he said the city will help the Canadian Mental Health Association find another suitable property.
“This is not about blocking out any not-for-profits in any way, shape or form,” he said. “This is about us looking at the bigger picture for the City of St. John’s and our requirements for our operations and for the recreation facilities in and around Terra Nova Road.”
Skinner said the association will go back to the drawing board.
“We’ll look at other options we had been considering, but this was our No. 1 option,” he said.
Mackenzie Lambe, the Scouts’ volunteer services co-ordinator in Newfoundland and Labrador, declined to comment, directing inquiries to provincial director Jennifer Neary, who’s out of the province until next week.
“Unfortunately, I don’t have the authority to disclose any information about that,” said Lambe. “That would be Jennifer Neary, and unfortunately she’s out of the province right now.” | <urn:uuid:0c999b91-3277-48ad-b72b-47441f8fc9ce> | CC-MAIN-2016-30 | http://www.thetelegram.com/News/Local/2014-04-15/article-3689274/Mental-health-group-surprised-by-council-expropriation/1 | 2016-07-23T09:17:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-30/segments/1469257821671.5/warc/CC-MAIN-20160723071021-00035-ip-10-185-27-174.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.967236 | 890 |

Then there are those who simply cannot afford insurance at today’s costs. This group is growing year by year at a rate far above inflation. This being true, businesses are dropping their insurance programs and this of course makes the two groups mentioned above grow. As insurance premiums increase and businesses drop coverage and the uninsured group increases, what happens to the cost of those of us who are insured? Our costs go up and up not only because our premiums rise drastically but because we pay for the costs of the millions that are uninsured for whatever reason.
President Obama looked at what was happening to the business coverage area and saw they were in distress. Costs were at a point where coverage was going to be available to fewer and fewer. Simply, the middle class has suffered enough.
Now let us answer the first question. Who has put up the vast sums of money in the effort to skew public opinion? It is the insurance companies and the HMOs that control our health care system today.
Neither of these groups has suffered one iota during recent years. HMOs have seen more and more multimillionaires come through their system and of course insurance companies also want to control the money flow. This fight is about who controls the money flow as far as they are concerned. Meeting the needs of Americans does not cross their minds. We want to increase cost to policyholders and increase the profit on that bottom line. It this was not true, why would they spend so much to protect their “cash cow?”
I do not object to a profit, but when it becomes beyond and people suffer, it is time to change the flow.
Now, how do the insurance companies and the HMOs control Congress and particularly the Republican Party? First, they contribute to their election kitty in ever larger donations. Then many of them have stock in the institutions. They profit from the present cash flow. The argument is that this is the way jobs are created. Yes, some are, but small businesses that are cutting their insurance programs create more jobs and the health care bill will enable them to get advantages that will help them to grow.
What has been heard on this issue against this bill is noise to distort the truth. I sold hospitalization insurance in years past. You could seldom get one group qualified for people with health problems. Young people would not pay for coverage often. Do they never get sick or hurt? Who pays when they do? Those of us with coverage pay. They too will get old and costs will go up. Also, many will become uninsurable because of pre-existing conditions. Then the shoe will surely be on the other foot.
To do what is right for the whole of America and not what is right for special interests is what our government should do!
When the welfare of the whole cannot be met by the present program, it becomes clear the course that our nation should take.

We’re always hearing about the dangers for youngsters of using internet-connected devices, but there can be huge security benefits in letting your kid have a smartphone. Take Fameelee.
Fameelee is an app that lets you track the whereabouts of your friends and loved ones. If your son ventures too close to Makeout Point on a weeknight, or your daughter takes an ill-advised trip to the abandoned mine in search of mobster treasure, Fameelee will tip you off.
Fameelee and fortune
You might think there’s nothing special about an app that tracks a user’s whereabouts when most modern handsets contain ‘find my phone’ functionality by default, but Fameelee is far more sophisticated than any tracking app we’ve encountered before.
For one thing, it lets you create groups of trusted people to track, such as family members, friends, or colleagues. Once you’re in a group, you can send messages and chat, basically making you a member of a spy network.
True, you’ll probably use this facility to coordinate surprise parties and restaurant visits rather than espionage, but you’ll have the powers of a spy nonetheless.
You’ll also be able to create restricted zones, so that if a member of your group ventures outside a particular area you’ll get a notification. And you’ll get another notification when they enter the zone again.
Best of all, the GPS tracker gives you real-time data, meaning you can get a notification if somebody in your group exceeds a certain speed limit. When you have your loved ones in a Fameelee group, you can keep them safe. | <urn:uuid:569eec3c-fbde-47b9-88b8-071917dd6bba> | CC-MAIN-2022-21 | https://www.droidgamers.com/2017/12/20/install-family-locator-app-can-stop-worrying-safety-loved-ones/ | 2022-05-28T01:00:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-21/segments/1652663011588.83/warc/CC-MAIN-20220528000300-20220528030300-00170.warc.gz | en | 0.894941 | 357 |
Xiexin decoction, a herbal therapeutic agent commonly found in traditional Chinese language medication, is recognized because of its beneficial results on diabetic nephropathy exerted through the combined actions of multiple parts, including Rhizoma Coptidis alkaloids (A), Radix et Rhizoma Rhei polysaccharides (P), and Radix Scutellaria flavones (F). a minimal or high dosage of APF (300 or 600 mg/kg, respectively) once a day time for eight weeks. We examined the bloodstream and urine indices of metabolic and renal function, renal cells histopathology, renal swelling, and fibrosis. APF treatment considerably ameliorated blood sugar and lipid rate of metabolism dysfunction, reduced urinary albumin excretion, normalized creatinine clearance, and decreased the morphological adjustments in renal cells. Additionally, APF administration in db/db diabetic mice decreased the elevated degrees of renal swelling mediators such as for example intercellular adhesion molecule-1, monocyte chemotactic proteins-1, tumor 96187-53-0 supplier necrosis element-, interleukin-1, and energetic nuclear element B (NF-B). APF treatment also decreased type I and IV collagen, changing growth element-1 (TGF-1), and TGF-1 type II receptor manifestation levels, and reduced the phosphorylation of Smad2/3 in the kidneys of db/db diabetic mice. These outcomes claim that APF decreases renal fibrosis in diabetic nephropathy through the NF-B and TGF-1/Smad signaling pathways. In vitro, APF treatment decreased cell proliferation and proteins manifestation of -easy muscle mass actin, collagen I, TGF-1 and NF-B in mesangial cells cultured with high blood sugar concentrations. Our results show that treatment with multi-component natural therapeutic formulations could be a useful strategy for the treating diabetic nephropathy. Intro Diabetes is usually a chronic metabolic symptoms and its own vascular problems are in charge of morbidity Rabbit Polyclonal to Collagen V alpha2 and mortality in diabetics . Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is usually a common problem of diabetes leading to end-stage kidney failing . Regardless of the widespread usage of several therapeutic approaches centered on controlling hyperglycemia and high blood circulation pressure, high percentage of diabetics still have problems with progressive and serious renal damage [3C5]. As a result, there’s a critical have to develop book renoprotective interventions for the treating DN. The main pathological top features of DN consist of mesangial enlargement, extracellular matrix (ECM) modifications, tubulointerstitial fibrosis, and glomerular sclerosis . Changing growth aspect-1 (TGF-1) continues to be identified as an integral regulator of fibrosis in DN [7, 8]. Outcomes from diabetic pet models and individual patients have proven that continual hyperglycemia boosts renal TGF-1 appearance [8, 9]. TGF-1 exerts its results by binding towards the membrane-bound TGF-1 type II receptor (TRII), which activates TRI kinase, leading to the phosphorylation and activation of Smad2/3. Activated Smad2/3 protein type oligomeric complexes with Smad4 protein and translocate in to the nucleus, where they stimulate the appearance of focus on genes, including ECM protein, contributing to the introduction of tubulointerstitial and glomerular fibrosis [10, 11]. As a result, inhibiting TGF-1/Smad pathway may possess restorative potential against diabetic renal fibrosis. Many reports have recommended that the usage of anti-TGF- monoclonal antibody and TGF- receptor inhibitor to stop the TGF- pathway could attenuate renal fibrosis in diabetic pet versions, 96187-53-0 supplier but may boost renal swelling . It’s been demonstrated that swelling also plays a significant role in the introduction of DN, and NF-B is usually a crucial signaling pathway to mediate the improvement . Consequently, alternative methods that could inhibit NF-B and TGF- and drive back renal damage are required. In China, traditional Chinese language medication (TCM) includes a lengthy history useful in the treating diabetes [15, 16], displaying several exclusive advantages in preventing diabetic problems [17C19] over the traditional medical strategy. There is fantastic potential for recognition of book anti-DN medicines through the evaluation from the inhibition of NF-B 96187-53-0 supplier and TGF-1/Smad signaling pathways by TCM brokers. Xiexin decoction (XXD) is usually a vintage TCM prescription made up of Radix et Rhizoma Rhei, Rhizoma Coptidis, and Radix Scutellaria. It’s been used in the treating diabetes for 1300 years . Our earlier studies demonstrated that XXD offers beneficial results on early-stage DN in rats [21, 22], however the potency from the compounded crude draw out is usually somewhat limited. To boost the performance and quality from the medication, pharmacodynamic evaluations from the energetic constituents have already been carried out, determining Rhizoma Coptidis alkaloids (A), Radix et Rhizoma Rhei polysaccharides (P), and Radix Scutellaria flavones (F) among the primary energetic constituents of XXD that work against DN [22, 23].

When Rachel Snyder arrived at the University of Kentucky for fall 2011, the College of Fine Arts didn’t have a musical theater certificate program and the Lexington Theatre Company did not exist.
Snyder wasn’t even a theater major.
“I actually started as a math major, with the intent of being a high school math teacher,” she says.
Snyder, who graduated in May, is back in Lexington from her hometown, Dayton, Ohio, to play the leading role of Eliza Doolittle in Kentucky Conservatory Theatre’s production of My Fair Lady for the company’s annual WinterFest. Once she has finished her run with the show, she’ll be off on the journey many aspiring stage actors take: to New York City.
“Obviously the goal is to be paid to sing and dance and act; that’s the goal,” she says. “I know that’s probably going to mean that I’m going to be a waitress and a bartender for a while. And that’s OK too. As a young artist, I just want to keep working and discovering my artistic voice. There’s always still so much to learn.”
And she thanks UK for setting her on her course.
“I will never be able to express or quantify how amazing UK has been in my experience. The breadth of experience I’ve had the opportunity to get here, the amount of shows that I’ve been able to participate in and the amount of incredible roles that I’ve had the opportunity to play, I think at other schools you don’t get as many chances.”
Snyder chose UK because she would be able to participate in theater as a non-major. In Dayton, she had attended Stivers School for the Arts, a public arts magnet school much like Lexington’s School for Creative and Performing Arts, and she performed with the educational theater Muse Machine.
But as she planned for college, a “practical” side kicked in, and she figured she had better pursue a field with a reasonably certain income.
Her freshman year, though, she got cast in UK Theatre’s spring 2012 production of the Broadway hit Thoroughly Modern Millie. During the production, she says, UK theater chair Nancy Jones approached her and asked, “What are you doing with your life?” “I said, ‘I’m going to be a math teacher,’ and she said, ‘Why?’ So she roped me in, and I realized I was going to regret it if I never gave a professional performance career a shot.”
Initially, Snyder planned a double major in math and theater. Then, in the spring of her sophomore year, she was cast as Wendla, the lead female role in UK Theatre’s Spring Awakening.
“I felt like I was swimming upstream, constantly,” Snyder says of carrying the double major. “I said, ‘It’s just not worth it to feel so stretched that I feel like I’m not being successful in either area.’”
Spring Awakening director Lyndy Franklin Smith also spotted a rising star in Snyder.
“Having cast her as Wendla in our Spring Awakening with UK Theatre and Dance, we recognized her fantastic talent,” Smith says.(She and her husband, Jeromy Smith, usually direct together.) “As I worked with her more in my musical theater technique class, her incredible range became more and more apparent. She possesses an ability to take on vastly different roles with fearlessness and commitment.”
From there, Snyder was pretty much UK musical theater’s leading lady, playing the narrator in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Sheila Franklin in Hair and Mrs. Lovett in Sweeney Todd, which was a co-production with the University of Kentucky Opera Theatre and part of the newly formed musical theater certificate program at UK. For many years at UK, the music and theater programs were fairly firmly divided. But under the new program, students studied in both music and theater programs and performed in each department’s musical productions, giving Snyder an even broader experience than was available when she entered school.
Stepping onto new stages
Snyder also got involved in Lexington theater, performing in last year’s WinterFest production of Cabaret as Fraulein Kost. Then came last summer and the formation of the Lexington Theatre Company by the Smiths.
Wesley Nelson, executive director of Kentucky Conservatory Theatre, said he’d heard wonderful things about Snyder before she auditioned for her role in Cabaret.
“After casting Rachel, I quickly saw that she is a true triple threat. This means that she is equally strong as a singer, actor and dancer,” Nelson said.
Part of the intention of the summer stock company is to get aspiring collegiate theater artists to work with established Broadway talent. In the inaugural production, 42nd StreetSnyder was cast in the scene-stealing role of Maggie Jones, part of a Broadway writing team that had her playing opposite fellow UK graduate Michael Sheehy.
The opportunity to play in the high-level production with Tony Award winner Karen Ziemba persuaded Snyder to delay her New York plans.
“To be in a room working on a scene with Karen Ziemba was incredible,” Snyder says. “I never thought I would have such great opportunities so early. We had like four different Equity guests, and each one of them had a different working style, just how they move in the studio, how they learn their lines, how they connect to a scene, how they notate things — I was trying to absorb everything I could from each of those people.”
Lyndy Franklin Smith, who co-directed the show, says, “Watching her step up and share scenes with seasoned Broadway veterans in our production of 42nd Street, with The Lexington Theatre Company, was such a proud moment. Seeing your student leap from the collegiate nest and take flight is something very special.”
The next thing to delay Snyder’s New York move was My Fair Lady director Wesley Nelson’s offer of the role of Eliza, the flower girl who rises to elite British society through the training of an arrogant phoneticist.
“She’s really striving for something more than what she’s come from, which I relate to and is a really powerful stance to come from,” Snyder says of her character in the show, which runs through Jan. 31 at the Grand Reserve. “She started from this lower place, and she wants to climb the ladder, and she’s willing to work for it.”
The big move
It’s not bad preparation for Snyder, who says many people have told her New York is something she just has to go do.
“They say you’ll never feel like you have enough money, you’ll never feel ready talentwise, you’ll never feel like you have the perfect place, … you just have to go,” Snyder says.
Having a growing community of UK theater and music graduates in New York, including Sheehy, is exciting, Snyder says.
And Nelson said she couldn’t be better prepared.
“This is definitely the right time for Rachel to make the leap to New York,” he said. “She has the drive, passion and the talent to make it in this business.”
As she heads off to pursue her professional goals, Snyder says she hopes to have opportunities to return to Lexington and is excited that Lexington Theatre and AthensWest Theatre Company can provide professional acting opportunities here.
And Snyder appreciates that the musical theater certificate at UK and the Lexington Theatre Company developed while she was there and that she was able to benefit from them.
As 42nd Street showed, success in theater often comes when talent meets the right place and right time. Hopefully it’s a combination that will continue to work for Snyder.

Are you a provident prepper? Does having "enough" mean a bunker full of stuff, or does being prudent, economical, careful and frugal in planning for the future matter more? This week we'll take a look into the heart and soul of prepping and mix it with a pinch of fun to get your new years prepping off to a rolling start!
This Week's Sponsor:
What would a radio preacher know about prepping? More than you might think, especially if he's Chuck Baldwin, a radio broadcaster, syndicated columnist, and pastor dedicated to preserving the historic principles upon which America was founded. Chuck offers "provident" advice gleaned from the most learned, most trained, and most qualified "experts" in a variety of fields. He says, "What I write today, I have learned from others. I've formed my own opinions and priorities, of course...but if I can share something in today's column that will help someone be better prepared for the days to come, then my goal will have been achieved."
Read Chuck's column here:
Horror of horrors! Do some preppers actually worship idols? Let's examine the evidence:
Most people think of "preparedness" as a state of mind, a state of finances, or a state of readiness achieved through storing food and supplies for emergencies, Although all of these are important, preparedness is first and foremost a state of the heart.
We live today in an age of fear: fear of terrorism - fear of nuclear war - fear of business failure - fear of job loss and/or failed relationships - fear of another stock market crash - fear of having our privacy invaded - fear of drought, flood, climate change, environmental and natural disasters - fears for our safety and the safety of our children - and the list goes on.
You probably already know that fear is bad for the heart. It causes a rapid heartbeat which, over time, can make a weak heart fail. Even the Bible makes mention of "men's hearts failing them for fear" (Luke 21:26) in times like we see today.
Will all the knowledge, wealth, food and survival gear in the world really be of much use to someone whose heart is full of fear? I don't think so.
Maybe it's time to put first things first... to make the development of a strong, healthy heart the first priority in getting prepared for whatever the future may bring.
How much easier is it to learn what we need to learn, to work hard, earn money, and acquire whatever we need in order to survive hard times (whatever the cause) when our hearts are in good shape!
If you're sitting down, take a moment right now to check your pulse. Is it slow or rapid? What does that tell you about the current state of your heart? Are you satisfied with the results?
If not, consider this: Fear weakens the heart. Faith strengthens it. How strong is YOUR faith? Let your heart tell you. It knows...
"An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in. A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves."

The members of this industrial-noise-college (collage) rock band met and formed in 1988 while working as DJs at KXLU, the radio station of Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles. Drummer Tomas Palermo, bassist Damion Romero and guitarist Todd Williams kicked off Slug’s illustrious career by staging a series of guerrilla performances in a campus quadrangle where the trio “entertained” fellow students with raging feedback and other Big Black-like noise assaults of guitars, boom boxes, turntables and a microphone. Within a year, Slug had added three more KXLU air personalities: singer Steve Ratter, second guitarist Rich Alvarez and second bassist Michael B. After landing some gigs in the greater LA area, Slug began releasing singles and EPs on its own Magnatone label, most of which are collected on the debut CD.
Swingers‘ title track opens like a Glenn Branca suite, with Ratter’s wails blended into a thick, buzzing wall of guitars and basses. The rest of the music is equally influenced by the noise and avant-garde rock coming from downtown New York, as well as the DJ/collage work of artists ranging from Public Enemy’s Bomb Squad to Throbbing Gristle. As powerful and abrasive as tracks like “Lockjaw” and “Face Down” are, however, Slug had not yet mastered the art of recording. As a result, songs that shake like an earthquake in a live setting fall a bit flat in the studio. Slug makes up for it with humor, interjecting samples of cartoons and preachers between the clatter.
Bassist Collin Rae (a veteran of several experimental bands, including Ultra Vivid Scene) replaced Alvarez before Slug recorded The Out Sound. The group’s music begins moving outward in all directions here, with lengthier songs, more dynamic range and adventurous studio tinkering. In some places, the band incorporates the loud-soft dynamics of Nirvana (“Ex-Chest”); in others, they come off much like San Diego’s similar (if slightly more accessible) Drive Like Jehu, with screeched vocals, wild tempo changes, a hulking drive and instrumental intensity (“Aurora F”). The album also features a hint of things to come in the gentler, spacier, dub bass and psychedelic guitar sound of “Coordinate Points.”
Between The Out Sound and the ambitious double-length The Three Man Themes, drummer Palermo (host of KLXU’s dub reggae show) had been busy at local clubs as trip-hop DJ Tomas, writing for the techno/dance zine Urb and clerking at an indie record store. Meanwhile, Ratter had begun playing keyboards. Their respective experiences made a great impact on The Three Man Themes, moving Slug from its original Branca/Big Black persona to ambient-dub-psychedelic punk-rock. While the album includes its quota of lurching, acid-tinged guitar squalling, drones and harmonics (“Unesque,” “Resonance Man”), it also finds the band exploring Aphex Twin territory. “The Grey Man” is an extended suite of electronic ambience intermittently spiced with gurgling aquatic sounds and jingling metallic noises. There’s also dub (“The Distinct Room”), a Tanzanian witchcraft song (“Kayamba Dance”), a Can cover (“Oh Yeah!”) and an instrumental tribute to early Sonic Youth (“The Gentle Man”). Amazingly, it all holds together seamlessly. Among Slug’s excursions in several different directions at once, The Three Man Themes stands as its masterwork. | <urn:uuid:5ef9e462-aa6f-4750-a3ed-d10a334f0ef8> | CC-MAIN-2023-06 | https://trouserpress.com/reviews/slug/ | 2023-02-06T03:42:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-06/segments/1674764500303.56/warc/CC-MAIN-20230206015710-20230206045710-00139.warc.gz | en | 0.930662 | 811 |

A unique piece of silverware will be making a tour stop at Dick's Sporting Goods Park on Saturday prior to the Rapids home opener against Philadelphia.
Fans that attend the Centennial 38 Supporters Group (C38SG) tailgate on the south side of the stadium on March 9 will have a chance to see and take photographs with the trophy that, for many, identifies the real champion of Major League Soccer: the Supporters' Shield.
For 18 years MLS has followed the tradition of all other professional sports teams in the United States and recognized its champion as the winner of MLS Cup Championship game. But in many league's around the world, the team that wins the league is the one with the best record throughout the season.
Founded in 1999 by MLS fans, the Supporters' Shield was created as “an award created by the fans to recognize the single table winner," said Sean Dane, President of Supporters' Shield Foundation and a leader in the Kansas City Cauldron, in a statement. "It is unique in the landscape of American sports. I think it highlights what makes the supporters culture in the league great. It also highlights the ability of Major League Soccer to work in partnership with its’ supporters in a way unseen in other sports."
The Supporters' Shield Foundation was formed this past offseason in partnership with the Independent Supporters Council (ISC) to raise awareness of the Shield’s history, protect the commercialization of the shield, and ensuring its movement from team to team each season. Its officers are elected annually by the ISC.
One of the first tasks supporter groups across MLS - including C38SG - undertook via ISC was to fund, design and deliver the new shield, which replaces the former trophy for the 2013 season. The new Supporters' Shield, designed by Kyle Stewart and made in Toronto by Award Co., is made of sterling silver and stainless steel and weighs over thirty-five pounds. It features the names of each team that has had the most points at the end of each of MLS' first 17 seasons, and has space to add at least 25 years of future winners.
The ISC has now organized the Supporters' Shield Tour so each supporter group that helped fund it, can see what their work has accomplished.
The Supporters' Shield, which is passed from holding supporters to the new winners, will visit each of the 19 MLS markets this year. The tour started in San Jose last week to recognize the 2012 Supporter Shield winner, and is making its second stop at Dick's Sporting Goods Park on Saturday.
The Colorado Rapids, winners of MLS Cup 2010, have never won the Supporters Shield. The closest the team has ever finished to the top of the overall regular season standings was in 2002, finishing in third overall with 43 points, eight points behind Supporters Shield winners, LA.

How about ISIS, EBOLA, DEBT or CORRUPTION?????

These Cockroaches think we are Blithering Idiots….They SCREW US every which way they can & being the PERFECT BRAIN DEAD FOOL….we keep asking for more….Lord is this some New Type of Masochism????
And while you were in the room, did you look into the HEART & not the FACES of these Blood-Sucking Leeches? What did you see? Did you see Honesty, Integrity, Worthiness, Experience, and Knowledge? Or did you see and hear Arrogance, Narcissism, Selfishness or just pure old unmitigated Corruption at work?….
Who do we think we are kidding? And how much longer do you think this Charade Will Go On? The basic premise should come down to this: “WHO DO YOU TRUST?” Out of the 537 Elected, selected & Bribed Parasites that are STEALING us blind, I can’t give you a list of even a measly 10 that I trust….
IMO this government that is lying about EVERYTHING is telling us the TRUTH about what??? Global Warming, All of the Scandals, The MUSLIMS that want all of us dead & now EBOLA……I DON’T THINK SO….

From the Editor
During the course of nine hours in August 2017, a terrorist cell carried out two vehicle-ramming attacks in Catalonia, with the first striking pedestrians on the famous Las Ramblas promenade in the heart of Barcelona. In our cover article, Fernando Reinares and Carola García-Calvo draw on judicial documents and interviews with investigators to provide the inside story of the worst terrorist attack in Spain since the 2004 Madrid bombings. Their account reveals the 10-man cell of ‘homegrown’ radicals, led by an extremist Moroccan cleric in the town of Ripoll, had initially planned to carry out vehicle bomb attacks in Barcelona and possibly Paris, but changed and accelerated their plans after they accidentally blew up their bomb factory where they were manufacturing TATP. While it is still not clear whether the cell had any contact with the Islamic State, the authors reveal that the network behind the November 2015 Paris attacks was also plotting to launch a similar attack in Barcelona that year.
This month’s interview feature is with Nicholas Rasmussen, who retired as the head of the U.S. National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) at the end of 2017. Michael Knights and Matthew Levitt draw on interviews with Bahraini security officials to outline how Shi`a militant cells in the country have evolved from easily detectible groups of amateurs to small cells of attackers with overseas training and combat experience and the ability to mount effective IED attacks. Matthew DuPée looks at the threat to the Taliban from other insurgent groups. Anouar Boukhars examines the potential jihadi windfall from the militarization of Tunisia’s border region with Libya.
This issue is the first to be launched on the Combating Terrorism Center’s redesigned website, which is also being unveiled. The new, easy-to-search, interactive interface showcases the important scholarship contained in CTC Sentinel over the past decade, as well as all the research published by the Combating Terrorism Center since its founding almost 15 years ago.

Quilling, or the art of Paper Filigree is a highly decorative and versatile craft. Its origins are not altogether clear, but can be traced back to the 15th century, when it was used extensively for the decoration of religious screens and panels.
The term “quilling” is thought to derive from the use of bird feathers as tools to coil or scroll the paper strips.
Coiling or scrolling of paper was used to imitate the highly ornate designs of gold filigree decorations which could be found in churches and the homes of the wealthy.
Through the years the popularity of the craft has fluctuated. At one time it was the strict preserve of the “well to do” and considered to be an excellent distraction for “Ladies of Leisure”.
The craft has experienced a revival in recent years, and has many advantages over other crafts as it does not require any expensive tools or equipment, and has a wide appeal amongst people of all ages.
Most recently the popularity of card making and scrapbooking has seen renewed interest in quilling as an excellent way of producing personalised embellishments at a fraction of the cost of mass produced items. A great variety of designs can be made by learning just a few basic shapes.
Coiling of paper strips is made easier by the use of special tools. There are two types of tools available, the split tool and the needle tool. | <urn:uuid:837cc451-71ef-469c-b7a5-c6162fbdb6d1> | CC-MAIN-2015-06 | http://www.papermagic.co.za/ | 2015-01-29T06:14:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-06/segments/1422115855845.27/warc/CC-MAIN-20150124161055-00120-ip-10-180-212-252.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.974246 | 290 |
On September 29, 2016, AH-Software tweeted that a VOICEROID+EX voicebank for Tohoku Kiritan and a VOCALOID4 update for Tohoku Zunko would be releasing on October 27 that year. The VOCALOID4 update for Zunko would only be a Natural voicebank, much like the SF-A2 miki V4 and the Kaai Yuki V4 packages before her. In addition, her voicebank would be available on its own or as a bundle with the VOCALOID4 software.
A trial version of Zunko's VOCALOID4 voicebank was made available on October 14.
From Ver.4.3.0 of the Vocaloid engine onwards, a XSY group "AHS" was added to Vocaloid. All vocals within the "AHS" group can XSY with each other. This vocal release is part of this group. If a User owns one or more vocal releases within the "AHS" group, XSY between them will open up.
The "AHS" is currently the second largest XSY group within Vocaloid. In total if user was to own every VOCALOID3 and VOCALOID4 Ah software vocal within the "AHS" group, this offers the equivalent of 156 additional voicebanks achievable via XSY. The total tone variation offered by the combined packages comes to a theoretical 169 voicebanks in total.
Note that also "GWL" does not become viable for use with any V3 vocals used as the primarily vocal. This should be considered when using any vocal for XSY within the "AHS" group from V3.
Also note that the updated vocals that brought a Vocaloid from VOCALOID3 into VOCALOID4 provided few differences, aside from adding GWL. Therefore these updates can provide little difference when used for XSY. | <urn:uuid:80028211-65fb-4ad2-a1a6-71e8675df488> | CC-MAIN-2017-26 | http://vocaloid.wikia.com/wiki/Tohoku_Zunko_V4 | 2017-06-26T07:02:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-26/segments/1498128320685.63/warc/CC-MAIN-20170626064746-20170626084746-00141.warc.gz | en | 0.959865 | 408 |
Festive time - time for internal shifts
Christmas Eve and then Christmas. For many the most beautiful time of the year. The time that we spend with our loved ones. When we exchange gifts in the form of packages under the christmas tree, the time for affection, and attention that we give to each other. The time to remember the value of people we spend our lives with have for us. When we feel interconnectedness, love, and a desire to express and share our feelings in a family circle.
I admit that I am looking forward to this period now that I am far away. Far away, both physically, emotionally and mentally, from the trauma and abuse left on me by my long-term relationship with a narcissis.
Honestly, it wasn't always like that.
I remember a period when I would have preferred to run away far, far away from myself, from him, from us and the whole unbearable situation that I could not solve. I just couldn't unravel that ball. Years have passed, Christmas, New Year's Eve and all the other holidays followed, and emptiness, a feeling of agony and the fear that my situation was unsolvable was becoming bigger and bigger. I remember a time when holidays were a nightmare that I would rather skip or even delete from my calendar.
I know the holiday season is just that for many of you out there. A nightmare. And let this be due to the fact that you are forced to spend holidays in the immediate vicinity of a narcissistic person who uses this time to indulge in you and the rest of the family. Whether it’s the feeling of loneliness, isolation, abandonment you feel because of that person’s absence. There is probably no more difficult and more necessary condition than realizing that you cannot live with or without a person who is harming you in any case. Your mind tells you that it is better to be as far away as possible, far, far away, but your body longs for closeness, for a hug, for a look, even if it is full of contempt and hatred.
It’s hard to describe such feelings to someone who hasn’t found him/herself in a narcissistic embrace. It is almost impossible to understand that we are able to abandon our values, beliefs, dignity and, as a slave, submit ourselves to the lowest and cruelest forms of manipulation, confusion and emotional blackmail. Even if it is only for crumbs of false attention or empty words.
Holidays are often a period when triggers are activated in our unconscious part and require resolution. They demand attention at all costs. According to the established habit, we prefer to be distracted by a bunch of obligations and duties that alleviate the ever louder and stronger cry of the inner being. We bake cookies, cook, tidy up, deal with children, parents, solve the plight of friends or comment on what's going on in the political scene, then there's a series of movies on TV and thank God for Netflix that saves us from the worse scenario - the case of silence.
Make no mistake, all of the above activities and tasks are fine and are part of life, and by the way Netflix is great too. But unfortunately they don’t solve the black scenario that has been dragging on for some time and will continue to unfold in the form of a nightmare that doesn’t stop with the morning sun. It will unfold until we face the monster. Confrontation is another word for treating an injured, neglected, and overlooked inner child who is today in the body of an adult who doesn’t know what for God's sake to do with a bunch of unprocessed emotions. These emotions, which we have not given the opportunity to express and transform, linger on us like cliffs in a shallow sea, approached by a tired swimmer on his way to the island with a lighthouse. The lighthouse emits such a strong inviting light that the swimmer overlooked it. In the tide, sharp cliffs do not pose a danger, but in the case of low tide they can be fatal for the swimmer.
The tide is a metaphor for a time when we are fully occupied with daily tasks, obligations, and roles that require our full attention. It is so much easier and faster to cover the screaming voices of the unconscious. The story becomes more challenging when, for one reason or another, the daily routine we have been accustomed to for most of the year or life suddenly fades away.
This can be, for example a time of , the departure of a child from home, the loss of a job, the korona virus period and yes, the holiday time.
And if we can’t escape the situation already and because we carry ourselves with us always and everywhere, perhaps the holidays are the ideal time for the shifts that lead us to recovery. And not just recovery. To that feeling of standing on top of a hill and gazing out at the valley with a sense of clarity, determination, inner peace and triumph that no one can ever take away from you!
So make a different decision this year. Act differently and expect different results. Make the following 4 commitments:
- Undertake to be kind to yourself this year, unlike in previous years, when you put all the other people in line in front of you and played the role of a superman or a superwoman. Choose people with whom you really want to spend the holiday season and do not attend socializing with those who humiliate, condemn or destroy your dignity. Get rid of the feeling that you have to do something just because it suits you or because it is expected of you. At this point, I am giving you a release from the guilt that might be aroused in you!
- Commit to disconnecting from narcissist and do not react to outages that are a constant during the holiday season. You need to be aware that the holiday season is very demanding and unfriendly time for them. All of a sudden there is a crowd on stage that used to be dedicated exclusively to them. Relatives, children, neighbours, phone calls, skype calls, zoom,… all this is too much for a person who wants all the attention absolutely for him/herself. Do not allow yourself an emotional reaction to their sudden disappearance, breaking plates, rage and roaring or courting. Simply disconnect emotionally! Believe me, there is no worse blow to a narcissist than your emotional unresponsiveness! Become discharged battery?
- Commit to praying and sending good thoughts to people and all beings who need your attention. This is definitely not a narcissist! If ever, in 2020, we realized how much we are connected and interdependent on our beloved blue planet Earth. A lot of people at this point need your warm gesture, a kind thought, a smile, maybe a conversation, or just a word of encouragement. So many of your talents with which you can drive away the darkness in your near and far surroundings have been overlooked, unnoticed, or simply stolen because of narcissistic selfishness. The world needs you! Remember that you were not chosen from the narcissist because of its shortcomings, but because of its qualities!
- Commit to yourself. Commit to taking advantage of this year’s holidays to shift your consciousness, making entering 2021 a step towards your freedom, independence, happiness, fulfilled and peaceful life. A step into a time where your need for love, security, affirmation and survival within a safe and healthy environment will finally see the light of day! Trust that it is possible. Trust that it is possible for miracles to happen to you!
To help you and support you, I am sending you the mantra that served me as I walked through the dark night of the soul years ago. I wish you with all my heart to serve you as it has served me:
I believe in Miracles.
I believe in You.
I believe in Miracles.
I am a Miracle.
Remember, you are not alone on this path, which often seems hopeless. Asking for help, conversation, advice, or just being close to someone who understands you is part of being human. Part of being kind to yourself is being able to call for help when you feel you need it. | <urn:uuid:564ffd5b-6420-40a0-91e6-0ac8765b638d> | CC-MAIN-2022-49 | https://www.saraalt.com/en/blog-en/holiday-time-time-for-internal-shifts | 2022-11-27T03:02:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-49/segments/1669446710155.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20221127005113-20221127035113-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.964265 | 1,682 |
The spiritual life is not complicated.
It can be difficult, but it’s not complicated.
Growth in the spiritual life and development in Christlikeness happens as we take in God’s Word and then apply that Word. And taking in God’s Word begins with reading it, then studying it, meditating on it, memorizing it, and finally applying it. The Scriptures are to be absorbed into our lives so that all that we do is compelled by the Word and so that our consciences and hearts are increasingly shaped and ordered by the Word so that in any activity or choice, we are quickly either accused or defended (Rom. 2:14-15).
And that process begins by reading the Bible. Our consciences will not be shaped and our heart desires will not be transformed and our actions will not be changed if we do not read the Bible to discover God’s character and God’s truth and God’s principles.
So whatever our goal for change in 2018 is, that goal must begin with exposure to the Word of God. And while the Scriptures don’t mandate how often or how much to read, even as we take in physical food on a daily basis to sustain our physical health, eating spiritual food on a daily basis to develop our spiritual health is also a good idea. The Bible is our milk (1 Pt. 2:1-3) and food (Heb. 5:11-14) for spiritual growth (2 Pt. 3:18). It must be consumed if we are to mature spiritually.
What should you read in Scripture? How much should you read? Again, the Scriptures don’t mandate a particular plan, so following a particular Bible reading plan does not make one “more spiritual” and not following one does not make one “less spiritual.” Yet a plan does offer a form of structure and accountability that many find beneficial.
There are many different kinds of Bible reading plans. In order to simplify the process, I have typically put together three different plans — the entire Bible in a year (a goal that takes about four chapters a day), the Old Testament in a year (about three chapters a day), and the New Testament in a year (one chapter each weekday). The advantage of the longer reading plans is that they provide an opportunity to see the big pictures of each book through more extensive reading; the advantage of a shorter reading plan is that it offers more time for meditation and examination through more intensive reading.
So pick one of these plans, or find another plan (I was intrigued recently to read of Denny Burk’s plan). Just be sure to read your Bible in the next year. | <urn:uuid:1f3dd26c-0a6f-4a8a-aa3d-6f3fa2cf51f0> | CC-MAIN-2018-05 | https://wordsofgrace.wordpress.com/2018/01/01/reading-your-bible-in-2018/ | 2018-01-21T23:59:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-05/segments/1516084890928.82/warc/CC-MAIN-20180121234728-20180122014728-00083.warc.gz | en | 0.949606 | 559 |
Q What is a diabetic ulcer?
An ulcer is a sore, or a break in the skin, that occurs due to increase pressure. It may occur on a bony prominence, such as a crooked hammer toe, or the shearing of the skin at the bottom of the foot in an area of increased pressure when weight bearing or walking. In a person without diabetes, the area may form a callus or a corn; however in a diabetic, the skin breaks down further and may cause an opening in the skin, sometimes quite deep. Often due to the lack of feeling, a patient may not know it is there, and the sore may become very deep, affecting the muscle and bone, and sometimes causing bacteria to ender, resulting in an infection. It is important for diabetic patients to examine their feet every day and see a podiatrist regularly in order to prevent ulcers from forming. To read more about diabetes and your feet, click here, or make an appointment with one of our doctors for a thorough exam. We can help prevent you from acquiring an ulcer, however if you do end up with an ulcer, we can help heal your foot and prevent it from returning. | <urn:uuid:c81dd77a-d26f-4e2f-a7d7-71e9de323897> | CC-MAIN-2017-47 | http://www.elmhurstfootdoc.com/faqs/what-is-a-diabetic-ulcer-.cfm | 2017-11-22T10:49:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-47/segments/1510934806569.66/warc/CC-MAIN-20171122103526-20171122123526-00592.warc.gz | en | 0.956302 | 243 |
- Course Information
For many working Californians, the traditional graduate school model and on-campus classroom schedules prevents highly-qualified individuals from pursuing a Masters of Marriage and Family Therapy in California. Northcentral University’s California Licensure Track option is pre-approved by the Board of Behavioral Sciences in California (CA). and meets all the educational requirements set by the state to earn a qualifying degree towards licensure. Since NCU is a regionally accredited university, this degree meets the licensing requirements in many other states. All courses are taught by professors who possess significant experience in the field of MFT, and many are also currently practicing clinicians.

"While the 2003 book Moneyball popularized sophisticated statistics called sabermetrics in baseball, hockey analytics has lagged behind. In a National Hockey League game, each team scores fewer than three goals on average over three 20-minute periods. With around 23 players on each team and six men normally on the ice at any one time, it’s hard to tease apart individual contributions to scores. Figuring out the best lineup for each situation depends on having those kinds of data.
Compared with baseball, “hockey is just inherently more difficult to analyze. It’s very fast, very continuous, not as discrete, and there’s just not as many scoring events in it,” says Shane Jensen, coauthor of the recent review and a statistician at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School." | <urn:uuid:8f27cb51-53ae-4e95-aef6-eb59283e75e8> | CC-MAIN-2021-39 | https://www.danhugger.com/2019/08/analytics-wind-up-for-shot-in-ice-hockey.html | 2021-09-19T04:53:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-39/segments/1631780056711.62/warc/CC-MAIN-20210919035453-20210919065453-00593.warc.gz | en | 0.958537 | 171 |

Construction sites are inherently dangerous working environments. Construction sites have heavy equipment and machinery, ladders and other working tools that may provide a risk to the safety of construction workers. State law in Illinois allows for worker’s compensation for all work-related accidents and injuries suffered by employees.
As time goes on, an increasing number of woman are joining the Illinois workforce. The same gender increase has been reflected on construction sites, which report growth of more than 81percent in the number of female workers in the construction industry. Keeping construction sites safe is a basic and mandatory requirement by law assigned to the construction site employers in order to prevent construction accidents.
The recent downturn in the American economy has affected many types of American industry, including the construction industry, which manifested itself in a lower female construction workforce. Even with the loss of jobs around 800,000, female construction workers are still working nationwide, according to authorities. As a result, keeping construction sites safe for female employees has to be a priority for employers.
The U.S. Department of Labor, through the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, has prescribed various recommendations for keeping construction sites safe. While many of the problems and perils faced by men and women in construction are similar, women may face some unique hazards, which must be addressed by employers.
Construction sites may be especially hostile for women, if male construction workers fail to accept women in the traditionally male-dominated workplace. Many cases of sexual assault have been alleged by women in the construction industry. Such construction site workplace problems can be addressed when the injured female worker exercises her legal right to fight against workplace discrimination and harassment in any form.

This episode is brought to you from thunderstruck Dallas, as part of the awesome conference that is Lone Star PHP. We are joined once again by the dynamic duo Jeff Carouth and Matt Frost off of the Loosely Coupled podcast!
We mostly make a bunch of bad jokes then drag up the audience to talk about stuff. Lets be honest, this was a bit of a crapshoot, but Elizabeth Smith goes into some detail on PECL and the problems of ownership. PSR-7 is chatted about for the 19th time and Jordi talks a bit about pickles.
Also, we debate “haytch” vs. “atch” as the correct pronunciation of the “H” in HTTP. Important stuff.
Audio only this time folks!

Keto Zucchini Bacon Bites Recipe
I know, I know. I had you at bacon. But indulge me and let me explain why this keto zucchini bacon bites recipe is worthy of your respect and admiration.
Presentation is Everything
I mean, they’re pretty attractive for a food item. The way the bacon swirls around the zucchini is pure gold for your social media presence.
As much as you don’t want to be one of those annoying folks who is posting every last thing they eat, this is pretty special.
Make it to impress your guests at a party. Everyone who did not attend will feel like they missed out in a big way!
You should probably make this before your event so you actually get to try it. Whatever you make for the party will fly off your serving platter before you can grab one for yourself!
Different Forms of Garlic
Garlic is a good tool to have in your kitchen, and it comes in several convenient forms.
You can obviously buy the real thing and chop it up yourself. Nothing quite beats the taste of fresh garlic.
But sometimes you don’t want to mess with that. And that’s OK too. I often buy garlic that has already been minced. It’s super convenient and keeps well.
Then there’s granulated garlic. If you’ve never used it, it’s dehydrated garlic that has been minced and dried. It is a good choice for soups.
Powdered garlic, which you’ll use for this recipe, is also made from dehydrated garlic. This garlic, however, has been ground down to a sand-like consistency.
Granulated garlic has air in it, so powdered garlic results in a more intense flavor. Mixed with chili powder, it makes an excellent coating for these zucchini bacon bites.
Much Ado About Macros
If I had a dollar for every question I got about carb counting and grams of protein and macros, I’d be set for life.
Heck, I could probably provide for you too.
Since that check is apparently still in the mail, I might as well keep doing what I do and help a few people out along the way.
First, when you’re starting on a keto diet, don’t overcomplicate things. I know there is a temptation to do things “right,” but trying to be overly scientific about your food choices might sour you before you really give keto a chance.
Instead, check out my simple keto calculator. Just answer the question and you’ll learn how much fat, carbs, and protein you should be eating.
Simple, and very doable. Good luck!
This keto zucchini bacon bites recipe is worthy of your respect and admiration.

Communication: Interfacial water structure revealed by ultrafast two-dimensional surface vibrational spectroscopy
J. Chem. Phys. , Volume 135 - Issue 2, Article number: 21101 p. 1- 3
Knowledge of the interfacial water structure is essential for a basic understanding of the many environmental, technological, and biophysical systems in which aqueous interfaces appear. Using ultrafast two-dimensional surface-specific vibrational spectroscopy we show that the structure of heavy water at the water-air interface displays short-lived heterogeneity and is very different from that at the water-lipid interface.

The divisional playoff weekend is often called the best weekend of football all year. 4 games, all with closely matched teams, with a conference championship berth on the line. This year, all 4 games lived up to the hype. The two favorites won on Saturday and the two underdogs won on Sunday. It all boils down to this, next Sunday, for a spot in the Super Bowl: Chargers at Patriots and Giants at Packers.
The Packers/Seahawks game was the most lopsided of the weekend, and not many were surprised to see that. Still, the game was very interesting and exciting for plenty of reasons. The Packers are a real feel-good story. Brett Favre in his 60th year of football, coming off a horrible year, in a small town that eats, drinks, and sleeps Packer football. There’s nothing like the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field for a playoff game, and boy, was it frozen. The field was covered in snow by the 2nd quarter. Still, Green Bay made the game interesting for a while by spotting Seattle a 14-0 lead thanks to two early Ryan Grant fumbles. However, Green Bay recovered and looks to be in good shape with the NFC title game on their home turf (or tundra).
A lot of people seemed to think the Jags would give New England a good run, but I wasn’t among them. Jacksonville didn’t play too well in beating our Steelers and New England, well, is New England. The Jags did play a spirited game and were in the game in the fourth quarter. David Garrard played a nice game and Jacksonville nearly matched the Pats’ potent offense. Still, Tom Brady was insane on Saturday tonight. Yes, I know he is a great QB, but he was 26-28–and the two incompletions were drops by receivers (the ball hit them in the hands). Basically he was perfect on the night. The Patriots didn’t punt all night. I still hate them but I can’t see them losing a game.
The Colts-Chargers game was fantastic. Back-and-forth all the way, and though a lot of people like Indy, you had to pull for San Diego once Rivers and Tomlinson left the game and the rest of the team stepped up heroically. Peyton Manning, as the announcer said, “played really well except for 2 interceptions.” The Colts played well, but San Diego made some unbelievable plays and deserved to win the game, which they did, 28-24.
The Giants went into Dallas to close out the weekend, and upended a team they had lost to twice already. Eli Manning finally surpassed his brother, scoring an upset just after Peyton’s team had just finished being upset. Once again, both teams played great ball, Dallas had a chance to win it in the final minute, but New York stepped up and will head to Lambeau next week.
I wasn’t too pumped to watch football this week because of the Steeler loss. These games were all so compelling, though, that I tuned into and intently watched each one. Hopefully the conference championships are just as entertaining. | <urn:uuid:08075ab4-432a-4a2a-92d5-ac304e908489> | CC-MAIN-2016-50 | http://raisethejollyroger.com/2008/01/footballs-final-four/ | 2016-12-07T16:25:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-50/segments/1480698542217.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20161202170902-00323-ip-10-31-129-80.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.98748 | 665 |

Rice's death became a rallying point for the Black Lives Matter movement and one of a number of deaths that led to nationwide demonstrations against the use of excessive and sometimes deadly force against minorities, especially young black men, by police officers. On July 5, police shot dead 37-year-old Alton Sterling in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, while 32-year-old Philando Castile was fatally shot by police in St. Paul, Minnesota, a day later. In King's death, detectives retrieved the weapon from the scene of the shooting and later determined it was a BB gun, which shoots small round pellets, with an attached laser, police said. 'WHEN HE RAN, THE COPS SHOT HIM' "It looks like a firearm that could kill you," Jacobs said, as she held up an image of the same type of BB gun. The incident began just before 8 p.m. EDT on Wednesday when police responded to reports of an armed robbery. The victim told officers that a group of males ผ้าปูที่นอน 5 ฟุต had demanded money, threatening him with a gun, police said. A short time later officers found three males, including King, matching the descriptions of the suspects, police said. While attempting to question them, King and another male fled into an alley.

If you have a wood-burning fireplace, creosote build-up is something you must always think about as it can be a major cause of chimney fires. With proper chimney maintenance like an annual chimney sweeping and an inspection from A to Z Chimneys, the levels of creosote in your chimney should stay on a manageable level. However, if this important task is ignored, you are risking a chimney fire as creosote is a highly flammable material. We at A to Z Chimneys want to inform you about creosote and its dangers.
What exactly is creosote and how is it formed?
According to the Chimney Safety Institute of America, chimneys that serve wood-burning fireplaces and stoves have the task of expelling all the by-products of combustion, substances produced when wood burns like smoke, gases, water vapor, tar fog, unburned wood particles, and assorted minerals. As these substances exit your fireplace and move through your cooler chimney, condensation happens, and the resulting residue that sticks to the inner walls to your chimney is called creosote.
What does creosote look like?
Varying greatly in appearance, creosote can either be brown or black in color. It can also be flaky and crusty, or drippy, sticky, and tar-like, or shiny and hardened. You can even have every different type of creosote possible in your chimney. No matter what creosote looks like, every type has one thing is common: it is highly-flammable and very dangerous when you have a lot of creosote in your chimney. Highly combustible, it doesn’t take much for a build-up of creosote to cause a chimney fire.
What encourages the buildup in creosote in your chimney?
Certain factors speed up the accumulation of creosote on the flue walls of your chimney: burning unseasoned wood and restricted air supply — both of these cause temperatures in your chimney that are cooler than normal. When you burn unseasoned wood, a lot of energy is used to burn off the water trapped inside of the cells of the wood, and this keeps the smoke temperature cooler than usual. Restricting the air supply by closing the glass doors to your fireplace or not opening the damper wide enough increases the smoke’s “residence time” in your chimney’s flue, making it more likely for creosote to form. Similarly, a wood stove’s air supply can also be limited by closing the damper too soon or too often, which leads to creosote buildup. Another cause of creosote buildup in wood stoves is overloading the firebox with wood.
Do I need to worry about creosote buildup with my gas fireplace?
No, creosote only forms from wood burning, so if you have a gas fireplace, you don’t have to worry about this chimney problem.
How do I prevent an excessive creosote buildup?
According to the Chimney Safety Institute of America, there are certain things you can do to prevent creosote from building up in your chimney: burn only treated firewood, avoid burning fires that are slow and smoldering, be sure your airways in your chimney are not restricted (damper is open and glass doors are also open), and, most importantly, schedule your annual chimney sweep and inspection.
At A to Z Chimney Sweep, we provide chimney sweeps and inspections to find and remove excessive creosote buildups in your chimney to keep you safe from dangerous chimney fires.

As a Latino and gay, Perez’s appointment would satisfy two of the president’s strongest blocs of supporters. But the job deals with labor and Perez has strong ties there.
I have a small anecdote on his concern for workers.
Perez and I served on two state commissions more than a decade ago – one on state finances (we were appointed by Perez’s cousin, the then Speaker, Antonio Villaraigosa) and one on the initiative process.
After one of the committee sessions in Sacramento, a few of us, maybe six or eight, went for a meal. When the bill came and we all pitched in to cover the bill and tip, the total money on the table exceeded the total bill by a good margin. John, then serving as the political director for the United Food and Commercial Workers union, immediately spoke up and said something like, ‘Instead of refiguring the shares, let’s leave the extra for the waitress. That’s what I always do.’ And, that’s what we did. Laborers will undoubtedly be satisfied if Perez gets the post.

The huge manhunt for cop killer, Christopher Dorner, occurred the same day that the Los Angeles City Administrative Officer said that if the half-cent sales tax hike on the March 5 ballot does not pass, 500 police officer positions would be cut.
Given the concern for police and the job they do in light of the Dorner’s declaration of war on the police, and the manhunt that has dominated the news in Southern California, one wonders if the story will affect the tax vote.
In 1993, Governor Pete Wilson supported continuing a statewide sales tax and dedicating it for public safety. The week of the election, massive fires roared through parts of Southern California. The tax passed handily.

At the Los Angeles Mayoral Debate at California State University, Northridge yesterday, the candidates spent time on the city’s budget struggles, projected deficit and tax situation. While all five candidates on stage came out against the proposed city sales tax mentioned above, they had different views on the city’s gross receipts tax for business.
In a twist against type, leading Democratic candidates Wendy Grueul and Eric Garcetti called for the ultimate elimination of the business tax over time. However, the one Republican in the race, attorney Kevin James, called for re-structuring the business tax as a flat fee tax rather than doing away with it. | <urn:uuid:bb496f4e-e6be-4ce4-913a-4e9f902053c3> | CC-MAIN-2015-35 | http://www.foxandhoundsdaily.com/2013/02/friday-pieces-perez-as-labor-sec-the-cop-killer-manhunt-a-twist-in-the-la-mayors-debate/ | 2015-09-03T04:29:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-35/segments/1440645298781.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20150827031458-00336-ip-10-171-96-226.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.962841 | 545 |

In a bit of news from the not-quite-so-unexpected department, a recent survey of 1,000 consumers reveals that 51 percent of current Verizon subscribers would be willing to purchase the much-rumored Verizon iPhone, should it ever come to pass.
The more interesting number is the 29 percent of responding subscribersof any carrierthat would be willing to jump on over to Verizon (or stay with Verizon) for a non-AT&T iPhone.
In total, 20 percent of T-Mobile customers, 22 percent of Sprint customers, and 23 percent of AT&T customers were noted as being "somewhat/very likely to purchase an iPhone with Verizon." Since the iPhone is obviously AT&T-restricted as of this article's writing, market research & consulting firm Morpace dove into a bit more detail for iPhone users on that network.
Amongst those currently owning an iPhone and receiving service through AT&T, 47 percent would be willing to consider a Verizon-based iPhoneeven though they already own some version of the device. Thirty-four percent are actually waiting to see if a Verizon-based iPhone comes to light (or any other carrier, for that matter) before they upgrade their existing iPhones.
"As successful as the Apple iPhone has been, many mobile consumers who have been attracted to an iPhone have not switched to the AT&T network simply based on the popularity of Apple's smart phone," reads Morpace's
"In addition, a sizeable percentage of AT&T's iPhone customers are known to have become dissatisfied with its carrier's service and/or data plans, including network coverage, dropped calls and other issues."
The survey news comes fresh off the heels of new reporting by Daring Fireball's Jon Gruber that the Verizon-based iPhone might be closer to realityand a rumored January 2011 release datethan expected. Of course, had one a nickel for every time a non-AT&T iPhone was mentioned in the news, one would have enough to afford the bounty for a lost prototype.
That said, Gruber's sources claim that a CDMA-based iPhonethe network technology used by Verizonis currently undergoing engineering verification tests over at Apple. That puts the CDMA iPhone, codenamed N92, but one step away from the "device verification test" phase, or the send-employees-out-into-the-wilderness-with-phones step. And that, itself, is one step behind the actual production of the rumored new iPhone.
According to TechCrunch's Steve Cheney, sources say that Apple has put in a mass order for millions of Qualcomm CDMA chipsets to fit the alleged January 2011 launch date of a CDMA-based iPhone. Of course, these are CDMA iPhone rumors, subject to the same amount of backpedaling that's been happening with the various, "It's coming out now!" declarations of the past three years.
"I can't say with 100% accuracy that an iPhone will hit Verizon store shelves in January," writes Cheney, "but all of the signals point that way, and it would give Verizon's CEO some interesting things to talk about in his CES keynote." | <urn:uuid:f895b8e0-4c64-43fe-be61-d886060ebbac> | CC-MAIN-2014-49 | http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2367820,00.asp | 2014-11-23T13:53:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-49/segments/1416400379512.32/warc/CC-MAIN-20141119123259-00169-ip-10-235-23-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.962139 | 649 |

Bless her heart.
Several years ago, my wife Candy volunteered in a church ministry to high school aged girls. The leader of that ministry was a southern woman. She used a phrase that was unfamiliar to Candy. In speaking about someone, she might say, bless her heart. By this she meant, that poor, poor woman. She’d describe someone who was going through a tough time, or she’d talk about someone who just did not understand something, and she’d sigh and say, bless her heart. That poor, poor woman.
Is that what blessedness is? Is it a pitiable condition?
God bless you!
Is this something we shout when someone sneezes?
A kid was suspended from a public school in Tennessee recently; suspended for saying “bless you” after a sneeze. “Bless” is on a list of forbidden terms. For her part, the teacher said the student shouted the phrase from across the room and was particularly aggressive in asserting her constitutional right to say it.
Why would “bless” be forbidden? Is there something inherently dangerous or destructive in this word?
Is this was “bless” is? A word that requires censorship? Or a vehicle for a Christian student to challenge a secular teacher?
Gathered around the coffin, family members comfort one another. The son – now the family patriarch – gazes at the corpse that was his father. “It is a blessing,” the son says. Is this blessing, then? Someone lives a good life but then in the senior years contracts a disease that leads to suffering and a painful death. Upon reflection, do we say his death, an end to suffering, is a good thing? Is this blessing – a good thing?
Would you describe yourself as blessed? Do you live a blessed life? If you say that, what, exactly, are you saying? Do we have any idea what this really means?
Poor, poor woman.
A good thing.
A description of my life.
What does it mean – blessed, bless, blessing???
Ephesians 1:3-4 relies on this word family: “3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, just as he chose us in Christ[b]before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless before him in love.”
Whatever blessing means in current vernacular, in Ephesians the one who is blessed is a child of God. Through Jesus, we are adopted as God’s children (v. 5). Our sins are forgiven (v. 7). And we get to know what God knows (v.9). Finally, we have an inheritance (v.11, 18) which involves receiving power from God (v.19-20), while living in the presence of God (v. 10). Blessing then is being God’s child. We are children of a father who loves us.
The best way I can think to relate is my own experience. I am an adoptive father. My eldest was adopted from Russia when was 3½. The younger two were each just under two when they were adopted from Ethiopia. We come together by marriage and adoption and the five of us make a family.
I don’t know what it is to love a child I have sired. I do not have any biological children. I don’t have any context so I cannot definitively say how I would feel about a child who came from my wife and me, so to speak. What I know is I cannot imagine loving anyone more than I love my kids.
My love for my kids is fun. We play kickball, UNO, we play on the swing set, we climb trees, swim in pools, hike trails, and play hide ‘n seek. It is loads of fun.
This love is also sacrificial. When they have nightmares or cannot sleep, my wife and I are up with them. When they are sick, we take care of them. We have made the choice to live without things (like cable TV) for the sake of paying for other things (adoption expenses, good health insurance, family vacations). In the moment, we don’t always like giving things up. In the big picture, we love it because we love the kids.
The love we have for our kids is long term. I mentioned their ages at adoption. From the moment they were in our custody, they were ours. They were already walking, but just about every developmental milestone in a human’s life that comes after walking we taught them (and continue to teach them). We want to help them know how to discover their passions, how to grow intellectually, emotionally, physically, and spiritually, and how to live in the world as it is. The way we raise the kids prepares them for life. This is daily work and lifelong work. And it is an expression of our love.
I don’t know exactly how fitting this is for a picture of God’s love for humans – all who come to Christ and are adopted as God’s children. I don’t know, but I believe the metaphor serves to give an idea of God’s love and the blessing we have as God’s children.
I said our love with our kids is fun. I think God’s love is fun, but even deeper because God’s love produces joy. I described our parenting love as sacrificial. The sacrifices parents make are important; the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross is even more so. I imagined our parent-love as being long-term. God’s love for us, His adopted children, is eternal. More than just lasting, God makes a ways for us to live eternally with Him because He wants to be with us.
Is definition for blessing needed? How about this? Blessing = being adopted as child of God. This is blessing and this is what we have and what we are when we are in Christ. | <urn:uuid:d1211fe0-7783-44dc-858a-5f6a95c4fec7> | CC-MAIN-2018-05 | http://honesttalkwithgod.blogspot.com/2014/08/blessed-in-christ-with-every-spiritual.html | 2018-01-19T01:22:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-05/segments/1516084887692.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20180119010338-20180119030338-00235.warc.gz | en | 0.973068 | 1,276 |
Steven Spielberg is keen to make Indiana Jones 5 — even if it puts Tom Hanks and Harrison Ford in competition for “actor who’s made the most Spielberg movies.” In an exclusive conversation about their new film Bridge of Spies, director Spielberg and star Hanks shared stories about the movies they’ve made and speculated about their next collaboration.
“We’ve gotta figure this out because now, Tom is tied with Harrison Ford: Harrison and I did four movies, Tom and I have done four movies,” Spielberg explained. “Now I’ll probably do an Indy 5 with Harrison, [so] it’ll be five for Harrison, four for Tom.”

The Cowen Park Bridge will be restricted to one lane of traffic in each direction starting next week. Crews from the Seattle Department of Transportation will add lane lines and delineator posts on the bridge to indicate this restriction on Monday, Jan. 26, weather permitting.
The bridge, located on 15th Avenue Northeast south of Northeast 62nd Street, is wide enough for two lanes in each direction, and currently there is only a double centerline, leaving the width open for two lanes.
SDOT engineers recently completed a structural review of the aging bridge which carries 7,100 vehicles per day and buses for three Metro Transit routes. Given the number of cars, trucks and buses using the bridge, its age, and its current condition, there is a need to limit the capacity to one lane in each direction to help ensure the bridge can continue to handle traffic safely.
SDOT Roadway Structures crews plan maintenance work on the Cowen Park Bridge from Feb. 2 to Feb. 26.
SDOT staff is working on a larger project to install protected bicycle lanes nearby on Ravenna Boulevard and on 15th Avenue Northeast this summer. Community outreach to help finish the design of this project is tentatively scheduled for March. The new striping on the Cowen Park Bridge will fit into the design of the future protected bikes lanes. | <urn:uuid:3f7be47e-82a5-4479-a3da-1e7a0183944e> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://zzjb.wpengine.com/blog/2015/01/23/cowen-park-bridge-lane-striping-planned-for-monday/ | 2022-09-27T10:09:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030335004.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20220927100008-20220927130008-00315.warc.gz | en | 0.93288 | 268 |
At my school, I am often sought out for technology ideas. For instance, my school is really good about publicizing the things I do with blogs and wikis. When The Atlanta Jewish Times called the school looking to speak with educators about their use of technology, my colleagues made sure the reporter, Suzi Brozman, talked to me. They are really supportive of what I do with technology, and they seem really interested in the applications available. My colleagues, in short, see me as a leader in integrating technology into the classroom. But I’m not nearly doing enough. So much more could be done! A cursory glance at the things Lisa Huff (no relation — I don’t think!) is doing with her students was enough to tell me that. I was quite humbled by what I saw — saving and sharing her posts in Google Reader left and right. Here is what I want to do next year:
- More wikis. Some ideas: wikis for portfolios, wikis for collaborative learning, wikis for teaching.
- Blogging. I would like my students to have individual blogs for reflective writing. I think having a student blog where I publish their work is not really accomplishing all that I want to accomplish.
- Podcasting. You really should hear my students talk. I tried to talk them into letting me record their Socratic seminar on the deaths of Romeo and Juliet, but they knew I’d post it here, and they weren’t ready for that. It’s a shame because it was a great discussion. They debated the issue for well over an hour! I like what Lisa Huff is doing with VoiceThread, a tool I was introduced to at a conference in November and still haven’t experimented with.
I find myself feeling so excited about these potential ideas that I want to sit down and plan it all out, which is crazy because I’m not really sure what I’ll be teaching yet (for one thing), and I still have seven weeks this year. I know what you’re thinking. Go ahead and try some things. Better late than never, right? Well, I just might. My ninth graders will be studying poetry and short stories soon (May), and I see some potential there. I think the student blogs will need to wait for next year, but perhaps I can do a poetry project using wikis and VoiceThread and/or SlideShare.
It didn’t occur to me until I saw Lisa discussing it in her blog that the fact that students could display their finished work through these types of online portfolios might be the “something extra” that makes them attractive to colleges and employers — a pretty persuasive argument for, as we say down here, getting off the stick and making it happen. | <urn:uuid:38f59ecf-4c13-4595-96f2-25405a658ea8> | CC-MAIN-2014-49 | http://www.huffenglish.com/tag/lisa-huff/ | 2014-11-23T07:13:33Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-49/segments/1416400379320.39/warc/CC-MAIN-20141119123259-00106-ip-10-235-23-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.979015 | 577 |
Everyone knows about this viral rash. Or they used to. A new vaccine means few kids get chickenpox anymore. You might have a fever or sore throat before the telltale itchy spots break out all over your body. It's very contagious, so it's best to stay home until all the sores crust over. Never give aspirin to a child with chickenpox. It can cause Reye's syndrome, which is rare but serious.
Once you've had chickenpox, the virus lives on inside your body. Later it may come back as shingles, a painful, blistering rash. It's more likely as you get older. The virus is embedded in the blisters. Contact with the virus can't give you shingles directly, but it could give you chickenpox if you've never had it. A shingles vaccine might help prevent an outbreak.
Look for about 15 pinkish-red bumps with a dimple in the middle and white gunk inside. Scratch them and you may spread the virus to other places on your body. You also could get it from someone’s skin. Wrestlers and gymnasts pick it up from used gym towels and sweaty mats. It may go away on its own, or your doctor might suggest creams, antiviral drugs, laser removal, or "freezing" the bumps to get rid of them.
Also called erythema infectiosum, it's more common in kids. You get a splotchy red rash on the face that looks like a slapped cheek. You also might have a fever and body aches. A web-like rash could sprout on your arms, legs, and body parts that gets worse in the sun. You can catch it from droplets in the breath of an infected person. It usually goes away on its own in 5-10 days, but the rash could come back for a few weeks afterward.
You might not like the look of these itchy, painful sores on your mouth and lips. They come from a virus (HSV-1) that most people get as children from the spit of an infected person. The sores usually get better on their own, but your doctor may suggest antiviral pills or creams to help speed the healing. The virus stays in your body and could cause outbreaks when you are sick, anxious, or overtired.
You can get it from sexual intercourse or from oral sex. Your genitals might tingle, itch, or burn before painful, blistering sores develop. These last 7-10 days before they crust over. The virus stays in your body even when you have no symptoms. Your doctor can prescribe drugs to limit or control outbreaks. Use a condom to lessen the chance you'll get or pass on the virus.
Like the name says, you get a painful but not itchy rash on the bottom of your hands and feet and on the buttocks that may blister. You may have sores inside your mouth. Kids under age 10 get it most, often from an infected person's pee, poop, snot, or spit. After that, most people build resistance. It usually clears on its own in 7-10 days.
If you're not up to date on your vaccinations, this virus could cause a fine, pink rash that starts on your face and spreads to your body, arms, and legs. It disappears in the same order. You may also feel a bit sick and have a headache. You can get it from an infected person when they cough or sneeze near you.
Vaccines make this a rare disease in the U.S. But measles still kills more than 100,000 people worldwide, most under the age of 5. You might have a dry cough, sore throat, runny nose, and fever. Splotches of flat rashes flow into each other. One telltale sign is tiny white spots with bluish-white centers inside your mouth or cheek called Koplik's spots. Call your doctor right away if you think someone has measles.
Roseola (Sixth Disease)
It usually infects kids between 6 months and 2 years old. It often starts with several days of sore throat, runny nose or cough, and a high fever. A rash of reddish flat or raised spots often follows. It starts on the trunk and spreads all over. The spots turn white when you touch them and could have little circles or "halos." Call your doctor if the fever is over 103 F or the rash doesn't improve in 3 days.
Colorado Tick Fever
You can pick up this rare disease from bites from the Rocky Mountain wood tick. This eight-legged creature lives in the western U.S. in higher altitudes and picks up the virus as it feeds on squirrels, chipmunks, and mice. You'll likely feel tired and achy with fever and chills. You could also have a headache, belly pain, vomiting, and a skin rash. There's no pill for it, but in serious cases you may need hospital care to get better.
Acrodermatitis (Gianotti-Crosti Syndrome)
Kids between 9 months and 9 years often get this bumpy rash. It breaks out on the arms, legs, and bottom, sometimes with blisters. Viral infections like hepatitis B, Epstein-Barr, or cytomegalovirus can cause it. Other symptoms include runny nose, sore throat, and fever. The rash lasts from 10 days to several weeks. It usually goes away on its own, but your doctor might suggest using a steroid cream.
Mono, aka the "kissing disease," spreads through saliva. You also can catch the virus from a sneeze or cough or shared food. Teenagers get it most often. If your rash comes with a fever, sore throat, or swollen lymph nodes in your neck or armpits, it could be a sign of "mono" or some other viral infection. You treat it with plenty of rest, fluids, and over-the-counter pain meds. Talk to your doctor about unusual symptoms.
Most people who get it have no symptoms. But you could have a fever, headache, joint and muscle pain, and a rash on your body and around your eyes. You get it from the bite of an aedes mosquito, found all over the world, or from an infected person’s blood or semen or other sexual fluids. There's no specific treatment, but rest, fluids, and over-the-counter drugs can help ease your symptoms. | <urn:uuid:94c4014f-bb58-4148-838e-018b325ec026> | CC-MAIN-2020-29 | https://www.emedicinehealth.com/skin_rashes_viral_guide_itchy_blisters_sores/article_em.htm | 2020-07-04T20:56:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-29/segments/1593655886706.29/warc/CC-MAIN-20200704201650-20200704231650-00535.warc.gz | en | 0.952458 | 1,349 |
Cholera in Southeast Asia
The Southeast Asia Region, which includes Bangladesh and India, has the largest populations at risk for cholera 1. Reported cases in Asia increased nearly threefold from 2010 to 2011 and included an increased number of deaths 2.
Many countries in the Southeast Asia Region face challenges with known risk factors for cholera outbreaks including poverty, lack of development, and high population density 3. Additionally, the region is susceptible to extreme environmental factors, such as frequent and widespread flooding, that can contaminate water sources and dislocate populations.
Similar to Africa, improving global access to water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) is a critical step to reducing cholera in the Southeast Asia region.

BLOOMINGTON, Minn. – Three Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC) hockey players have been selected to D3hockey.com's Teams of the Week for their performances over the last seven days. St. Thomas goalies Benjamin Myers and Kenzie Torpy were named to the men's and women's teams, respectively, while Hamline forward Bre Simon was named to the women's squad.

The junior goalie recorded 41 saves in Friday's 2-0 road victory, marking the first time Augsburg has been shut out in its last 70 games. Myers followed up that performance with 37 saves in a 5-4 home win on Saturday, stopping 15-of-16 shots in the final period.
Simon (So. | Elk River, Minn.) scored three goals and added a pair of assists as the Pipers swept St. Catherine over the weekend. The sophomore forward is tied for the MIAC lead with seven goals this season.
Torpy (Jr. | Oregon, Wis.) stopped 48-of-49 shots to help the Tommies take a tie and a shutout win against Augsburg over the weekend.

This post has really been inspired by my sister and my cousin, so I can’t take any credit for this one. We were on Zoom the other day and we were discussing skincare. Lockdown skin, dry skin, oily skin etc…. now just to confess at the start of this, I am no skin care expert AT ALL!!! There are some fantastic people that you can follow on here who know waaaaaaay more than me. I can recommend Caroline Hirons as the GOAT on skin care, she knows it all, so head over there for all your skin care related needs. This is just my super simple routine on days where i’m super lazy but still want to get some goodness into my skin. This is my very strippped back routine for those when meh….. I would consider all these MUST HAVES in anyone’s routine.
I would say that I have very combination skin, oily or dry are my skins two areas of expertise. I would like to say that I have a 6 step skincare routine and I always remember to complete every step and never have breakouts but thats simply just not true, and i’m not going to lie. I’m a very busy person who mostly just wants a quick simple routine day to day and I can be more bougee on the days where I have time. I do love a face mask and a skin care treatment and I do like to try new things, I’m always buying skin care (sorry Matt).
Here are my Skin Care MUST HAVES:
Garnier Micellar water is a must for me! I never use facewipes (even while camping) I’ve always taken micellar water. Face wipes just move the dirt round on your face and don’t get rid of it. Also micellar water is really quick and easy if like me you are coming in from a night shift or a long day. Just a simple step for cleansing, also has the added bonus that you can cleanse from bed, no need for a tap (night shift ladies will feel me here)
Toner- now this might be a step or a product that you haven’t used before. Toner ensures that there is no remaining oil, dirt or impurities in your skin even after you have cleansed it. Toner shrinks the appearance of pores and restores your skin’s PH balancing it after cleansing. Some cleansers can be really stripping on the skin. Toner also helps brighten your skin and gives it that glowy look. My favourite toner is the Pixi glow tonic, pop this on a facepad and off you go (another step from bed, are you noticing a theme here?)
Moisturise! This is my favourite daily AM moisturiser. The reason I have different ones for morning and night is MAINLY because this one contains a good amount of SPF, I use SPF everyday for the protection against all the nasties UVA and UVB. I love this Body Shop mosturiser because it has a high factor of SPF, if you are going to use this you must remember to cleanse and take it off. SPF sticks to your skin and you really need to remove it (ideally with a two step cleansing routine) which I do on days where I’m not working with a tap and water, HAHA!
Hope you enjoyed this super simple 3 step skincare morning routine, all the links for these products are on the blog so you can click through if you want to start this routine.
If you would like to see more of my skin care favourites then please let me know. I can go into my more detailed routine or maybe favourite face masks? I love buying skincare so if you think there is anything I need to try PLEASE let me know. | <urn:uuid:5639c6c4-6965-47b8-9007-4e0c57ef009c> | CC-MAIN-2021-49 | http://lifebylyd.co.uk/beauty/super-simple-skincare/ | 2021-12-06T04:48:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-49/segments/1637964363290.39/warc/CC-MAIN-20211206042636-20211206072636-00281.warc.gz | en | 0.955072 | 818 |

- Caroline Wozniacki won the 2018 Australian Open title, celebrated with Champagne, then booked herself two first class tickets home with Emirates.
- One ticket was for herself, another was for the trophy – her first major title.
Women’s tennis champion Caroline Wozniacki travelled home in style after winning the 2018 Australian Open title.
The 27-year-old defeated Simona Halep in the women’s tournament final at the Rod Laver Arena on Saturday, enjoyed a Champagne celebration, and then booked two first class plane tickets.
One, of course, was for herself. The other was for her new travel partner – the Daphne Akhurst Memorial Cup trophy.
Wozniacki even documented her journey with an Instagram story.
— D'Arcy Maine (@darcymaine_espn) January 28, 2018
Wozniacki, the world number one women’s tennis player according to WTA rankings, competed in two tennis major finals in the past but was never able to win a title.
All that changed last weekend when she overcame Halep by two sets to one.
Speaking to the press after her success, Wozniacki said the final victory was “very special,” according to The Guardian.
She added: “It feels really good, it’s great. I basically have beaten any player that’s been playing and is on Tour right now. This [a major title] was the only thing missing.”
No wonder she hasn’t let the trophy out of her sight. | <urn:uuid:9ccd582f-3ccc-4865-a626-0c1dc000e7cc> | CC-MAIN-2018-17 | http://www.businessinsider.my/caroline-wozniacki-booked-first-class-emirates-ticket-for-her-trophy-2018-1/ | 2018-04-21T18:48:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-17/segments/1524125945317.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20180421184116-20180421204116-00567.warc.gz | en | 0.965711 | 341 |

SW Audio Visual Provides Press Conference Audio Visual Services to Major League Soccer Announcement at the Vancouver Westin
Vancouver will be home of Major League Soccer’s 17th team. It will be the second MLS team in Canada following the launch of Toronto in 2007. The Vancouver team will begin play in 2011 at the newly renovated BC Place Stadium, designed with a 20,000 seat soccer specific configuration.
With SW designing the set along with streaming live video of the press conference on the official MLS Website, the conference was a great success! ‘SW has established a new Gold Standard when it comes to delivering press conferences!’, declared Mr. Don Garber, MLS Commissioner. | <urn:uuid:b1e92264-ac1c-4cc3-85da-b21435145f1e> | CC-MAIN-2021-17 | https://www.sw-online.com/2009/03/vancouver-becomes-major-league-soccers-17th-team/ | 2021-04-23T18:06:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-17/segments/1618039596883.98/warc/CC-MAIN-20210423161713-20210423191713-00400.warc.gz | en | 0.901872 | 139 |
El-Auria is not located in the Delta Quadrant. Q threw the Enterprise 7,000 light-years from known space, and the galaxy has a radius of 50,000 light-years. There's no way that moving 7,000 light-years in any direction from known space would put you in the Delta Quadrant. -- EtaPiscium 08:57, 25 Sep 2004 (CEST)
- So you could just as easily say that the Borg had already expanded that far because we know the Borg had originated in the Delta quadrant and it was a hundred years between the planets destruction and the encounter with the Borg. – The preceding unsigned comment was added by 220.127.116.11 (talk).
This isn't accurate. There was never a canon reference to "El-Auria" spoken in "Q Who". (I believe) "Rivals" was the first episode to specify to the race by name...but never was the term "El-Auria" used....Odo just mentions that Mazur was a refugee from the El-Aurian system. --Gvsualan 21:57, 9 Mar 2005 (GMT) | <urn:uuid:95446ebf-1796-4ad1-a3ab-ec8049a6387b> | CC-MAIN-2014-42 | http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Talk:El-Aurian_homeworld | 2014-10-30T16:05:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-42/segments/1414637898477.17/warc/CC-MAIN-20141030025818-00218-ip-10-16-133-185.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.981509 | 241 |

Inflation vs deflation.
The key argument with the people pointing to deflation as a result of this recession is the velocity of money. Quite frankly, it's a darn good one. They argue that for inflation to occur, you not only need an influx of money, but you need the velocity of that money to change hands in the system to be at least what it was before the money was added. If the speed it goes through the system slows, so does the inflationary impact. We definitely have a huge increase in the amount of money, but we aren't seeing inflation?
The fact is that the money that we pumped into the system did little to help the economy recover. It did stop the bleeding, so to speak, for the time being. A lot of that money sits in the hands of the banks right now. Instead of making loans with it, they are hoarding it to offset future losses. This hoarding of money from the banks is also helping to slow the velocity of money. "But what about the stimulus package?", you ask. Well the theory of stimulus should have accelerated the velocity of money by creating jobs and easing state hardships. It usually concentrates on infrastructure as well, so it helps the basic materials companies, builders and heavy machinery companies. We spent our stimulus package on pork though. I'm sorry, but a Tea-pot museum in North Carolina, or an arrow subsidy isn't gonna create a lot of jobs, help the states, or cyclical industry. It will help some politicians buy villas in Spain, but they usually wait till they are out of office to buy those. Most politicians need the money to cool off for a while, so they hoard it, slowing the velocity of money again.
Now the deflationists say that the beauty of quantitative easing is already taking shape and the banks are paying back tarp money and therefore taking money out of the system, and they are right to an extent. If this is true, even if the velocity of money increases, it would have to increase at a rate that is faster than the money is leaving the system, and if not, the economy has gone full circle.
I'm now going to say something that will contradict a lot of my other posts...
There will be deflation!
Now before you get all excited, it won't be here! A lot of the world will experience deflation, but it's mainly due to our inflation. There will be a shake-up of global economies and a new world order. A few countries will get ahead in the game and a lot of countries will lose ground. 5 countries I'm looking at as possible winners are Canada, Germany, Japan, Australia, and Brazil.
Why did I give you such a good example for deflation and then fall back to my same old inflation play?
1) We still didn't fix anything! Our citizens are still in debt to our eyeballs and we haven't saved anything. Some people argue that the savings rate has shot up drastically, but the measurment of savings makes it look better when we pay down debt. We have been paying down debt and that is a good thing, but we have also have had a ton of foreclosures. Foreclosures artifically remove debt from the system and inflate savings measurements. The consumer goes from building equity with a house payment, to paying rent. This puts the consumer in a poorer posistion even when our measurements point to an easing on the consumer.
2) Get used to the term, "Jobless recovery". You'll start hearing it a lot soon. I know it sounds like an oxymoron, but it is possible. I don't want to spoil further statements, so I'll save the details to later in this post, but the statement itself is inflationary. The more you hear it, the more inflation you're gonna get.
3) The working man. Here lies the second biggest problem! If we don't create jobs, the largest part of the consumer base can't spend money. Deflationists are reading this right now and thinking I'm proving their point for them. Again, with the velocity of money slowing, it should point to deflation. But, they are missing a not so small detail. The working man happens to be this particular president's voting base. They are a vocal voting base and these are the majority of people out of work. In November of last year, President Bush extended un-employment benefits 3 months. The crash was in October though, and the people that lost their jobs in October will have benefits expiring this month. The people that lost their unemployment benefits will increase every month after this one until at least November and probably more like January 2010. November is 9 months after the March Rally but most investors weren't confident of the rally until May. The romance with voters should be rubbing off this month. Expect to see news stories with "I can't feed my children" to hit papers soon. President Obama has no choice but to print money for these people and they will spend it all as quick as they recieve it and ask for more. Here's the first step in increasing money velocity.
4) Investment money on the sidelines. This is actually the biggest problem. Again the more you hear the words "jobless recovery" the worse it's going to be. Institutional investors simply have to invest money. They are hoarding cash now, because they believe that we haven't hit a bottom yet. If you take a look at the VIX, it's been at low volume for quite a long time. The problem that exists is when these funds start to jump back into the system the velocity of money will skyrocket. If you really want to see the velocity of money, it's going to hit light speed as soon as the institutionals get confident! These aren't hedge funds, these are mutual funds. When they invest it will have an inflationary impact that the deserted hedge funds can't keep up with.
5) The jobless people will cause another even bigger hit on the banks. When unemployment runs out, there will be a bigger hit on foreclosures. Some banks that were returning TARP funds will have to ask for a second round. The government will have to print this money on top of the money that they had to hand out to the jobless to begin with.
6) The returned TARP money won't be burned! The goverment has either borrowed this money from a foreign government or our future tax dollars. They should burn it, but history has proven that they will spend it somewhere else, especially in a democratic economy.
7) Global deflation. A lot of other countries placed bets on our continued ability to consume. This is a bubble that has to be corrected. China will take a big hit, but will still have slightly positive growth in a global Economy. The European countries will take the biggest hit and some might take a Japan length of time to recover. In my opinion, the UK, France, Ireland, Iceland, most of the independents from the Soviet block, and Switzerland lose in this scenario. Mexico will hit third world status again, and France will flirt with it.
8) Keysian economics will save the day in the end! We will hit hyper-inflation eventually, but once we hit this point, Keysian basics can carry us out of it. We will lose the title of being the global economic super power, but we won't fall as hard as Japan did. Our population will insure that we don't get the title back any time soon though. I'm betting that one of the commodity based economys takes over in the short term, but they all have their own flaws. Long term, I'm thinking that one of the tax havens not named Switzerland wins. Switzerland's loans killed them. Is anyone ready for a super power named Nevis?
I'm just a lonely squirell out there in the world, trying to find a nut. The only nuts I seem to find though are squirells with the opposite opinion. | <urn:uuid:623ae2b5-bb84-42d2-919e-59ff072a23ff> | CC-MAIN-2016-40 | http://caps.fool.com/Blogs/inflation-vs-deflation/222446 | 2016-10-01T03:29:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-40/segments/1474738662507.79/warc/CC-MAIN-20160924173742-00026-ip-10-143-35-109.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.970366 | 1,640 |
There are a few things most parents can agree on. First, having children is a blessing. And second, raising them is not easy. Whether this is your first baby or your seventh, you are going to make some mistakes. But, here’s the good news: 100% of children grow up with parents who make mistakes, and the vast majority of them turn out just fine.
When you have a baby, you will have no lack of advice. Good intentioned people everywhere will give you heartfelt, and often conflicting, advice on everything from feeding to baby sleep to what kinds of toys are best for your baby.
For the most part, advice is a good thing. Get as much of it as you can, from as many trusted sources as you can. The reason we know more about parenting today than in past generations is because of the collective wisdom that has been handed down (usually in the form of advice).
Ultimately, however, parenting decisions fall to you as the parent. It’s great when an expert tells you that you should (or shouldn’t) co sleep with your infant, but in the end, you’re the one who needs to make the decision. Weigh what everyone has to say about it, and make the best decision you can. But don’t get caught up in the ideas that if you don’t use a particular parenting method or technique you’re somehow screwing your baby up.
Will you make some decisions that you will look back on and regret? Probably. But so does everyone. Why not give yourself a break and focus instead on how many good decisions you make for your baby every day. We’re willing to bet that they far outweigh any mistakes that you may have made.
However you choose to feed your baby, lay her down to sleep, and whatever products you do or don’t buy for your baby, the most important thing is that you love her and that you find ways to show her that love. Do what you feel is best for her based on the information you have, and the one thing that no one else has-your experience with your baby. And in the end, everything will work out.
The one thing you don’t want, either for yourself or your baby, is to be so worried about how every little thing will affect your baby that you become afraid to try anything new. Raising a baby is a bit like an experiment at times, and you will doubtless have to try several different things to see what works best when it comes to soothing your baby, helping her sleep, and any number of other parenting challenges.
And that’s OK. Really, you’re doing fine. | <urn:uuid:997c0e7a-61e0-427c-a2d4-a487f5d20153> | CC-MAIN-2021-49 | http://www.babyslumber.com/give-yourself-a-break.html | 2021-11-29T18:34:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-49/segments/1637964358786.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20211129164711-20211129194711-00564.warc.gz | en | 0.965508 | 560 |
