What lab testing do you offer?
As a naturopathic doctor, I offer a range of lab testing including blood, urine, saliva, hair, and other diagnostics that cover a wide range of concerns, such as hormones, thyroid function, cholesterol, gynecological concerns, infection, and many more.
How were you trained in lab testing?
Naturopathic doctors are educated in interpreting lab data and are trained to perform blood draws, urinalysis, and other common lab testing as part of diagnosis and to direct treatment.
Some lab tests can be done on-site, while other testing must be sent away for analysis before results become available.
Lab test results are used for assessment and treatment planning, to confirm a diagnosis, and as part of treatment evaluation. I review all lab results with my patients to ensure that they understand the information and implications for their health.
Most frequently, I begin by obtaining a copy of most recent labwork from your medical doctor (with your consent) and review this with each patient in detail before deciding if further testing is warranted.
Why should I come to you for lab testing?
Performing necessary lab testing through your naturopathic doctor rather than relying on your medical doctor ensures that I have the information I need to create a personalized treatment plan that addresses your unique concerns.

Another large site that occupies a considerable area is that of 44 Mile camp. This site is on private property. This site was home to the 12th Division’s workshop, Australian Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (AEME). (NT AEME Colour patch at left) Units that made up this force where that of the 106th and the 107th Brigade Workshop (AIF) (1942), the 2nd Brigade Section 12 Australian Division Ordnance Field Park and the 136 Australian Brigade Ordnance Field Park. The site contains many large concrete foundations, many of them workshop and living quarters. The site also contains many shower foundations, maintenance areas, drains, tent sites and toilet facilities.
The AEME of the 12th Div was in short responsible for maintaining transportation and ordnance in the area. Vehicles from the immediate vicinity requiring maintenance or repair including trucks, motorcycles and cars, jeeps and even Bren-gun carriers would be sent to this location for repair. Indeed, the units stationed here serviced most, if not all motorcycles in the area. Weapons such as artillery pieces, anti-tank guns and AA guns would also be serviced by this unit.
The position of this site was well chosen for its intended purpose as the site boarders a heavily timbered area with a relatively deep tree canopy. This was vital for the service of large numbers of vehicles and towed weapons due to the camouflage offered. Large vehicle parks, particularly early in the war in the NT, offered prime targets for Japanese aircraft. Hence many vehicle maintenance areas are located amongst the trees at the rear of the site where it appears they were parked in circles and dispersed at random to take advantage of the canopy cover. The site was also very close to an Australian Army Service Corps (AASC) unit at 46 mile. The numerous vehicles contained within an AASC unit and the relative close proximity of the AEME unit at 44 mile must have proved most convenient when vehicle maintenance and service was required.
Wooded area at rear of camp site. The remains of two “thunder boxes” can be seen.
Members of the 106th Brigade Workshop (AIF) at 44 Mile in front of their 1942 Chevrolet 4×4 trucks in the heavily wooded area at the rear of the workshop area to take advantage of the natural camouflage offered by the trees canopies. Most of the Chevrolet trucks serving in the NT were manufactured in Canada.

This photo also gives us a good insight into what the buildings at 44 mile looked like. A very prominent camouflage pattern has been applied to the building, highlighting the danger of air raids in the area.

Part of a damaged BSA M20 Motorcycle exhaust pipe located at the site attesting to the fact that the AEME serviced lots of motorcycles at 44 mile.
Although taken at Larrimah Rail Head, this photo does illustrate the type of work that took place at 44 Mile. Troops winch a V8 Flathead from a vehicle, most likely a Bren Carrier. Removing the V8 from the Bren Carrier was difficult as it could only be taken out from over head of center of the fighting compartment.
Another tent site constructed of rocks and compacted earth.
A seat with back rest made from a tree stump next to a tent sight (top right corner).
Banana palm garden area at the entrance to one tent sight at 44 Mile. Native ‘livistona australis’ palms now grow in the place of the banana palms. The bush is slowly but surly reclaiming some of these sites.
Elaborate entrance to tent site at 44 Mile. You can see the path in the center of the image.
Although not taken at 44 Mile, this photo does illustrate the lengths to which some occupants went to make their tent sites comfortable. Two gardens made from stone, can be seen at the entrance, similar to that found at 44 Mile. Local bamboo, which was highly sought after by troops in the NT for construction, has been used to create the walls, bush timber has been used for the main structure and a D^D tarp for the roof. This particular tent belonged to RAAF personnel and won first prize in a NT tent building competition in 1944.
Drains from shower and washing areas are also abundant at this site and run down to a dam at the back of the camp site. Some, like the one pictured below is quite long and runs right through the middle of the camp. They are constructed from concrete.
The particular foundation pictured below is both a washing and showering area and one of the best constructed on site.

Notion site licenses are available for 20 machines (Mac or Windows).
The latest version of Notion builds upon our award-winning software foundation with all new possibilities and enhancements. Notion is continuing to redefine the way notation software is used while staying true to our strengths: great playback, a simple easy-to-use interface, great compatibility, and incredible customer service.
Compose, playback, and edit music with a quality and ease of use that must be experienced. No endless level of menus to find what you need. Notion is the most efficient notation product, making it simple to write and edit your ideas quickly.
Notion gives you the best playback of any notation product. Orchestral samples recorded by the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios. Guitar samples by Neil Zaza, bass samples by Victor Wooten and drum samples by Roy “Futureman” Wooten.
All samples were painstakingly recorded using the best equipment by top engineers recording an array of dynamics, articulations and performance techniques.
No other product allows you to create a score on your desktop and transfer it to your iPad, where you can continue to edit and playback your music. Now, with Notion you can. If you have Notion and the Notion iPad app, you can send and open scores from each device and continue to work on your score, anywhere, anytime.
Now you can enter notes into Notion with the interactive fretboard, keyboard, and drum pad. Many users find it convenient to first capture their pitches or guitar fingerings on an instrument before translating them into notation or tablature. These interactive entry tools allow for a quick, convenient way to build your score. You can customize the number of guitar strings on the fretboard or the order of entry for each voice for the drum pad. Also, use the chord library to enter the chord name or voicing you want to appear in your score. Choose from standard chord symbols and fretted chord symbols.
Notion was the first notation product to support ReWire (host and slave). Now take advantage of this great feature on your 64-bit Machine and with other compatible 64-bit products.
Notion’s SequencerStaff feature is loved by many. Now, there is Sequencer Overlay. This is a feature that allows you to see both notation and its MIDI performance on the same staff. You can edit each individual note’s velocity, duration, start-point and end point by simple click and drag functions. For precise values, you can double click each note and enter in the numeric values as well. With this feature, Notion combines the power of the MIDI sequencer with the clarity of standard notation in a unique and powerful way.
With MIDI you often need to overdub a passage or merge recorded data and new events. Notion allows you to overdub your recordings in either merge or replace mode, giving you full control over the resulting performance. Overdubbing is great for adding expressive controllers, recording key switches, or trying that line one more time.
Capture your MIDI performance better than ever before in Notion. Choose keyboard or guitar entry as well as having an incredible level or tweakability to dial in the way Notion will follow your playing.
Each purchase of Notion 4 comes with two (2) installations.
NTempo (™), control and perform your score. | 2019-04-24T10:56:45 | http://www.proaudiostar.com/notion-music-notion-5.html |
Although considerable progress has been made in recent decades, the understanding of birth defects and intellectual disabilities is surprisingly limited. In only about half of patients who have intellectual disabilities or significant birth defects can the cause be identified - a necessary first step if prevention strategies are to be developed.
Dr. Stevenson’s professional career has been devoted to the study of birth defects and developmental impairments. He has contributed broadly to the literature on the cytogenetic, metabolic, molecular and environmental causes of these disabilities, authored two editions of the textbook The Fetus and Newly Born Infant, Influences of the Prenatal Environment, and with Dr. Judith Hall produced two editions of Human Malformations and Related Anomalies. He and his colleagues, Charles Schwartz, PhD and Curtis Rogers, MD, authored Atlas of X-Linked Intellectual Disability Syndromes (Oxford University Press, 2012).

Yes, I have been sewing for many years, but I still dont think this repair is as difficult as some of you may think. What's difficult is trying to write out directions for folks who haven't a great deal of sewing experience, so, the author had to include deeply detailed instructions. It may help to think of it as an overly large patch, that simply is the size and shape of the baffles. Fold under edges & stitch - do your best to follow on top of existing stitch lines. Tada! You CAN do it!
She mentions that if you err when trying this you can send it in for repair. Can you provide me with the address as to where I can send my jacket?

Chris21 full import is getting partway through and then blocking - no errors thrown, just doesn't complete.
It's only processing 23,000 entities out of a total of 114,000.
Any known issues with C21 upgrades?
HSF are upgrading their C21 instance over the weekend so I just wanted to check if there's any known issues with upgrades and the broker c21 connector. They say it's an Engine update, going to version 8.16.5. They're using Identity Broker version 4. Any known issues?
None that I have been made aware of. As you haven't mentioned what version of the connector, or what version of chris21 they are upgrading from, just ensure that you're on the latest available connector, as there was a change to the way logons were performed quite some time ago that we had to update the connector for (logonapplication became an invalid argument). Additionally, as with any upgrade (and in line with Frontier advice), ensure that the integration is included in the upgrade and test plan.
I need some help with 2 items : time offset and sliding date window in IdB Adapter transformations for a customer. They have chris21 as the source system.
When an employee starts on a new position from a specific date (i.e 05 June 2018) the data flows in the connector and the data transformation is applied a day earlier(i.e on 04th June 2018). The implication is the job title is changed the day before the correct date. the customer wants to know whats wrong.
When a user is terminated in chris21, he gets a termdate set and a simple transformation is applied to set the terminated flag as "True"/"False". But for example if a user has term date is 02 july 2018, by logic, it should add 24 hrs and set terminated flag to "true" 03 july 2018 midnight, but the terminated flag is set to "true" only around mid next day(i.e 04 july 2018 midday). Need some help fixing this issue.
I have attached the Adapter xml, if you want for reference. Thanks.
A1: What are the values for posstart and posend fields? A Broker Date field is a timestamp with the time component forced to 00:00:00, so even if the timestamp value from chris is 4-6-2018 23:59:59, the corresponding date value in Broker will be 4-6-2018. Use the offset fields to adjust.
A2: Looking at your configuration, the sliding date window from Q1 is configured for local date values but the time offset flag transformation is not. Figure out what the correct setting should be, then if the flag is still being set incorrectly, follow the same process from A1. Also, offset used should be whole days for date fields due to the explanation above.

The connector checks that there is a status="ok" in each entry. I can't see how end date could have any impact on this. Try running the query in the GTR form for a couple of different forms and compare the output.
is there a way to do this OOTB in IdB 4.1?
Write an extended transformation using code (not recommended as it's not trivial).
@HSF, We migrated IdB4.0 to 4.1 and we have configured in FIM to flow email address to update back in chris21. And during testing chris21 tech team found that IdB is updating attributes like surname, dob etc in addition to email address. I checked all connector and adapter configuration, there is no flow to the above attributes. in FIM there is just one export flow from MV to chris21 person, email address. I can send the adapter and connector config, but couldnt find a way to add them here.
Jerry confirmed that this was the case. | 2019-04-25T20:54:15 | https://voice.unifysolutions.net/communities/6-unifybroker-forum/categories/7-unifybrokerfrontier-ichrischris21/topics |

Coat your desk with whiteboard paint and you'll always have a place to jot down quick notes, plan your workweek, or doodle.
That's what software engineer and maker Bob Clagett did with his huge, custom-built desk. Make sure the surface is nice and smooth before applying primer and the dry erase paint, Clagett advises in his very detailed post about this desk.
Beyond the useful desktop (a good alternative to the chalkboard desktop at Google HQ), the desk also features incredible organization (see image below) and built-in storage, including a secret compartment!

A woman complained to me (Dr. Cloud) about a coworker who would always interrupt her while she was trying to get her job done. She acted as if her tendency to be behind in her work was her coworker’s fault.
“Why do you talk to her?” I asked.
The woman looked at me with a blank stare. To have choices and to have control of her own behavior was a concept that hadn’t occurred to her. She felt that if something happened “to her,” then that was the way it had to be. There was nothing she could do to change it.
When I suggested that she had many choices, she quizzed me about them. I gave her five or six suggestions, from talking to the woman about the problem, to talking to a supervisor, to asking to be moved to another area. This was a totally new way of thinking for her; she had never learned that she was free to make choices in relationships and in life.
Have you ever been in a relationship with a “victim”? Victims feel as if they have no choices in life. Life is something that happens to them, and whatever comes their way is their lot.
Click to Tweet: Children raised with good boundaries learn that they are responsible for their lives and free to live them as they choose, as long as they take responsibility for their choices.
Joe was such a victim. His company was imposing some new policies that he found difficult to handle, and he was very depressed about the changes.
“What are you going to do about it?” I asked him.
“What do you mean, do about it?” Joe asked.
He just looked at me. It took a long time before he realized that he could choose to get his resume out to some other firms and not be a victim to the fifty-hour workweek he hated.
Adults and children raised with good boundaries learn that they are not only responsible for their lives, but also free to live their lives any way they choose, as long as they take responsibility for their choices. For the responsible adult, the sky is the limit.
We live in a society of people-pleasers and victims. People today act as if they have no choices in life and that everything should be done for them. If it’s not, they can’t do it themselves or make changes. This presents a big opportunity for the future: If you learn to take control of your own life, you will be so far ahead of everyone else that success in life is all but guaranteed!

Great article. Thanks for sharing that. I really needed to hear that, especially the part about “Adults and children raised with good boundaries learn that they are not only responsible for their lives, but also free to live their lives any way they choose, as long as they take responsibility for their choices. For the responsible adult, the sky is the limit.” I really needed that. Time to let go of my magical thinking that Jesus will take care of everything in my life and just magically “fix” me.
Yes it’s about brainstorming different ways to deal with a situation (other than what is immediately obvious) and trying them out to see which is the best way that works for you.
Easier without 4 young children!
After experiencing plenty of unethical situations where I worked, I stood up to two owners of a business who expected me to do what I was told. I am a so called Senior Citizen and after applying to over 50 different jobs, I can not find another job – even part time. I can not collect Social Security for a few years yet and it does not look good for me.
Yes, it really is not always as easy as “setting boundaries.” The world is not a respectful place full of people who respect others who respect themselves. Many supervisors would take this as a challenge. There are always costs to speaking up. Some are well worth bearing, some not. I do WISH it were this simple. But it is far, far better to have boundaries than not. God will take care of you. I believe and have seen that personally. Sometimes He leads to speak up, others not. We have to cultivate listening and following His lead.
What’s the difference between this and entitlement? Sometimes you feel like you have to put up with certain things – out of love or preservance.
What’s the difference between this and entitlement? Sometimes you feel like you gotta put up with certain things out of love or perseverance. I used to be on the opposite end and refuse to put up with anything and I’m now on the end where I tolerate too much. So you’re either intolerant and insensitive or being walked over. What’s the balance?
although you can be back to Square One with others who are unwilling to accept or respect or acknowledge your boundaries….
I really just finally understood what one part of taking responsibility for myself means. My mom has been a victim all of her life and this helped me understand her more. Such a blessing.
I was a victim because of abuse from a very young age. And then I was raised in a family that was very authoritarian with few choices. I took it all to new levels of victim mentality in my youth and then married an alcoholic who was also a victim/ abuser. Through a complete physical breakdown I surrendering everything to Jesus and He began helping me find my worth and my voice. It was very very hard, but seven years later I am actually walking out what it’s like to have boundaries. And more importantly that it is the most loving way to live. My friends are mostly receptive. I’ve had some walk away. Some even for a season as they were victims themselves. But I truly feel I have endless possibilities and hope for my future.
Sometimes old habits may try to creep in. But I pretty quickly see the issue and deal with it quickly.
For those beginning to be free Of victim thinking- it will feel ‘harsh’ at first. But keep inviting the Holy Spirit to teach you how to be in healthy relationships. And you will see that boundaries help you. But for those that want to learn- it helps them too!!!
I am not happy in my job and have over a period of two years applied for three jobs. One just last week ….. Nothing yet. I have no control over the endless gossiping, taunting and nosiness that is triggered from outside my place of work that finds its way unbelievably into my place of work. In the meantime I have tried to be a valuable contributing part of the team. Having no control over a situation does NOT imply that you are a victim or that you are not exploring choices/ possibilities because sometimes there really is nothing one can do and sometimes you just have to learn to create something within the situation …… so I have found this post distressingly condemning. “Success in life is all but guaranteed “ ….. well I guess you would have to define what you mean by success ? In the Bible I have come to understand that success is ‘another’ word for wisdom …… knowing the best thing to do within a situation. I have found myself creating relationships with the very people that have caused me so much pain. I know what they are …..but I know too that God has said that all He has created is good ….. to see His face in theirs has become less painful, less hurtful but it still hurts. If there has been any “success” then it’s change can be felt in my heart and certainly not in any outward “success”. To create something with them and not against them, to let go of the hurt and the sometimes anger ….. perhaps that would be success. Sometimes just a little bit of encouragement would be so life giving instead of this death that happens inside at every ‘lecture’. Encouragement is not ‘false hope’.
Even in feeling like you have no choices in an impossible situation, you too have realized you can choose your attitude towards people and how you view them through Christ. If anything, this alone is incredibly freeing even though you may literally be ‘stuck’ physically in the situation you are in. When you change your thoughts about the people or situation you are in, it opens new doors to ways to cope with what often seems unbearable and also gives each of us potential for growth spiritually, which is sometimes exactly what God is looking for before He opens another door.
I have experienced this personally in my own life and know that even when we are hurting, God is still listening and healing us and growing us into our new potential. Just because we don’t see what He has for us on the other side does not mean it isn’t there. Patience while He prepares the best for us is imperative to fulfilling everything He has in store for us. The important thing to know is that sometimes we might do everything in our own power to improve our situation by setting boundaries and still He says ‘wait, you aren’t ready my child, but when you are I will let you know’. And in the mean time He is busy preparing everything for us to bless us and make us happy. All He asks is for us to listen, be patient and wait, AND while we wait, to do our best for Him right where we are. When God trusts us with something small like a job we think is worthless or demeaning or difficult, He may just be testing us to see if we are faithful to follow Him and be trusted with the small blessings before He rewards us with the bigger ones. Like the servant who was trusted with his master’s money….do you bury it or invest it and help it to grow? If He can trust us with a ‘little’ then will He trust us with much.
Also, sometimes God asks us to be willing to be in unbearable circumstances so that we can be a witness to His saving grace. His love makes the worst situations that much more bearable, because when we show His love through those bad situations our witness for Him grows that much stronger as we can point to Him for our faith and endurance even under persecution and difficulties. Whatever situation we find ourselves in, good or bad, we should be able to point people to Christ for His glory and not our own. Our job is to be humble so that He may be glorified. God wants us to be happy and to bless us. He wants us to set boundaries and do what is right, but He also wants us to learn to lean not on our own understanding and simply trust in Him. To Christ be the glory forever and ever regardless of where we might be. | 2019-04-20T16:36:54 | https://www.boundariesbooks.com/boundaries-with-kids/overcome-victim-mentality/ |
Using SoundFlower, it’s quite easy to directly record the output of the EigenD software. However, I’ve seen some entries for the ‘Win an Alpha’ competition use an external microphone to record the ambient sound in the room.
This tutorial explains how to set everything up so that you can benefit from perfect sound quality while playing and recording.
Tagged with EigenD, Eigenharp, Pico, Recording, Software.
Very helpful. This combined with the Garage Band tutorial has really answered a lot of the questions I am going to have once I get my pico in my hands. The official tutorials are great for walking me through the manual and these will help me play additional sounds and record some tracks. I can’t wait to get started!
This was very helpful. I am STILL bewildered why Eigenlabs did not make the entier setup editable directly through the computer interface and the mouse. Relying on the keys is an absolutely ridiculous scheme. I’m looking forward to the Eigenharp being a full-fledged midi controller and not this ridiculous half-tool that it currently is. It has SUCH promise!
This has been discussed many times on the Eigenlabs forum. While this approach takes some time to learn, it pays off in spades. You’re able to control almost everything without ever having to look at the computer screen or leave your instrument. This is very liberating and makes the Eigenharp unique for live performances. I personally think that this is a revolutionary idea and I’m glad that they had the guts to enforce it.
Thanks, that is a very helpful Tutorial.
But you don´t need Audacity for it, as I discovered. You can also set up a new simple track in Garageband and use Soundflower as the input.
You can also use a guitartrack and advise some realtime filters to the pico through the simulated guitaramps and effects.
That was well done. This is the type of tutorial I need but for the Alpha Eigenharp. | 2019-04-26T16:00:57 | http://expressiveness.org/2010/02/22/eigenharp-pico-recording-audio-output |

Four students from Northumbria University’s Department of Geography and Environment completed a ten week placement at Quorum in which they took on consultancy roles for two projects that the business park is implementing as part of its long-term commitment to sustainability and the environment.
The first strand of work the students were involved with was the development of a wildlife trail to capitalise on the existing and thriving wildlife area at Quorum. Past projects have seen nectar beds planted for bees and a stream cleared to encourage the surrounding nature. Luke Smith, 21, and Hollie Stocks, 22, were allocated the role of bio-diversity consultants on this project.
Luke and Hollie, who both currently study Geography (BSc), were briefed with plans to create a walking trail for people working on the park to complete on their lunch breaks and experience the various types of wildlife.
They were tasked with carrying out an analysis of the wildlife already present in the grounds, and creating a proposal detailing measures which could be introduced to attract more birds, bees and butterflies.
The students liaised with Quorum’s onsite landscaper and gardener to discuss some of their suggestions and developed a feasible concept for the trail.
The placement, which required a minimum of 70 hours commitment, also saw Geography (BA) student Michael Wren and Environmental Management (BSc) student Pei Tan act as travel plan consultants on a green travel initiative for Quorum.
The students analysed a recent employee travel survey and identified areas that could be strengthened – such as encouraging more car sharing. They then gave a presentation to human resource managers from companies across the park highlighting schemes and incentives to urge people to consider car sharing.
Quorum commuter centre manager Laura McVittie, who worked with Michael and Pei on the travel project, said: “Every year, the travel plan is reviewed and this presented the perfect opportunity for the placement students to provide a fresh perspective.
Laura addedd: “All the students made an impact for the better and it has been a really rewarding experience working with them. We already have a cooperative partnership with Northumbria University as a result of our Q Learning facility that is offered to the park’s tenants for which it delivers bespoke training sessions. | 2019-04-20T23:11:26 | http://newsroom.northumbria.ac.uk/pressreleases/students-guide-the-way-in-environmental-initiative-1195664 |

In recent times music has gradually climbed higher on the entertainment ladder. Musicians always receive the applaud leaving the technical producers or sound engineers out. Little does one know or hear about them.
One of such sound engineers who have helped immensely in the music industry although the youngest among them is Sugar Tone also known in private life as Kofi Ampem Darko (a name unknown to many) of Options Digital Studio sited at Osekua estate located in-between Santa Maria and the Anyaa market.
Sugar Tone?s love for music was wonderful and can be described as an inheritance because his father is Okyeame Bediako secretary to MUSIGA, Onyina his uncle and relates to Agya Koo Nimo from his mothers side.
Sugar Tone at a very tender age joined a lot of gospel bands where he played the drums, keyboard, guitar and actually played the entire musical instrument except the base guitar.
He was a student of Labone Secondary and later to Ghana Films where he studied how to arrange songs, mix, program and in all how to package music in an appealing way. He first did his attachment at Despite Studios where he studied under Mr. Ebenezer Agyekum who is currently in Canada. He proceeded to TNT studios at Tema after his attachment.
Sugar relocated himself at West Wise Digital Studio at Spintex Road where he worked on Bandana?s maiden album ?Moko hoo?. He then moved to the giant in the engineering sector that is Zapp Mallet of TLC studio located at Mile Eleven (11) for some finishing touch to his carrier. Some where along the line he passed through Freddima studios at Nkrumah circle one of the oldest recording studios in the capital where most of the sound engineers started their training.
He established his own recording studio three years ago and the first artiste he recorded in his studio was Daasebre Dwamena and has produced hit after hit for different artiste till date. He can boast of working with artiste like Tinny, Etuo Aboba, King B, Absorber, Bandana, Reggie Zippy, Lucky Mensah, Sydney, Lenny Akpadi and the list is endless.
Sugar?s aspirations for the future are; ?to gain international recognition in his carrier, to come out with a mega compilation project very soon this year and also to produce hit songs as he goes on?.
Also asked about his man Daasebre; in a remorseful way he said ?God has his own way of doing things but I cannot say if he is guilty or not guilty?. He says to him he does not think this will affect his image negatively but rather positively because nobody knows the change his situation will impact on him when he comes back.
?Daasebre is the best artiste I have worked with so far and was like a senior brother to me he added?. He concluded this interview by telling all those who says he deals in drug to stop spreading false information to the public. | 2019-04-25T14:07:16 | https://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/entertainment/Sugar-Tone-Young-But-Very-Dynamic-193068 |
On the 4th day of Kuala Lumpur Fashion Week Ready to Wear 2015, I was invited to attend the show of the Turkey Invited Designer, Songul Cabaci. The collection are really simple yet chic, I can see myself wearing some of the pieces on a daily basis.
Minimalist, simple and chic ! All of the pieces are so wearable that I can easily put it on for any occasion. Different from some of the fashion shows that I have watched so far during the KLFWRTW15, Songul Cabaci seemed to prefer her collection to be elegantly simple by using prints and texture. Well, not sure about you but I am totally loving the collection.

Next season Michigan is lacking a ton of depth at the Running Back position. Michigan has recently taken some shots to that depth with O'Maury Samuels being thrown off the team for a domestic assault charge, which just yesterday was pleaded down. Once that plea was completed Samuels announced he was planning to transfer.
Then the news this week that Chris Evans is suspended for academic issues. Which leaves Christian Turner who was injured most of last year, former walk-on Tru Wilson, and true freshman (early enrollee) Zach Charbonnet. That's it folks!
Outside of Tru Wilson, there is very little experience with that group. So now what?
1. Michigan has some athletes in Hassan Haskins who started at LB last year is already back at RB and former HS QB Michael Barrett who has been running with the WR's.
2. There is a chance that Evans could be back on the Fall Roster if he gets his academic issues cleaned up.
This is and defensive line is a big concern for next year.
ESPN and Charles Woodson have parted ways.
Nik Stauskas was traded again, this time to the Pacers. That is 3 times in a week. He is expected to be released.
You couldn't even make this up if you tried: Pep Hamilton is expected to be the GM and Head Coach of the new DC franchise of the XFL. Harbaugh to Vince McMahon.
After what looked like a season ending injury Caris Levert is expected back on the court tonight.
I've never been this confused about the scholarship situation in my life.

The FRC is one of Mongolia’s two financial regulators: mandated to supervise and regulate the non-bank sector; including the insurance and securities markets, and participants of the microfinance sector. The FRC is responsible for providing for stable and sound financial markets. The Commission exercises power over non-bank financial institutions, insurance companies and intermediaries, securities firms, and savings and credit cooperatives. At the same time, ensuring the rights of individual financial market clients (securities holders, domestic and foreign investors, and insurance policyholders) and protecting against financial malpractices.
Established in 2006, the FRC commenced activities with a greater degree of responsibility than its predecessor institution; the former, Securities Commission. As a supervisory authority formed under parliament, the FRC is accountable to the Mongolian parliament (overseeing its work) and is subject to annual reporting to the Economic Standing Committee. Based on statutory objectives and tasks the ‘FRC promotes transparency and fair competition in the non-bank financial sector towards the greater interest of the public and financial market clients’.
To create a diversified, sustainable and inclusive financial system/market where fair competition is promoted and consumer protection is secured towards fostering economic growth and development.
To develop diversified and sustainable financial markets that ensure the rights of consumers, and trust, in the marketplace; through implementation of sound financial policies, regulation, and the establishment of an effective supervision system.
The FRC monitors activities of the clients and institutions - in the financial markets it supervises - and regulates, when necessary, to secure compliance with the law. While FRC establishes and enforces prudential standards - to ensure sound financial and risk management across all relevant institutions - it is committed to ensure the rights of consumers, and proper functioning of financial markets. The framework of prudential standards and requirements provides necessary guidance in relation to any financial activity regulated by the FRC. The framework also addresses: risks faced by firms (with measures for managing and mitigating them) and the capital adequacy required to withstand unexpected financial loss (thus mitigating the risk of insolvency).
Along with its regulatory function, another of FRC’s core tasks is to supervise institutions it regulates and authorized to operate in the financial markets. Non-bank financial institutions, insurance companies and intermediaries, securities firms, and savings and credit cooperatives are all subject to prudential supervision, and monitored in an ongoing basis. Monitoring compliance with statutory obligations and prudential requirements imposed on institutions, is a responsibility FRC takes very seriously; to ensure the rights of consumers and manage risks associated with financial malpractice. FRC adopts a risk-based approach when carrying out its supervisory duties. The Commission directs efforts and resources towards areas and institutions - of greatest risk to consumers, and proper functioning- of the financial markets. FRC strives to align its supervisory approach with best international and market practices, to maintain high standards in its capacity as a supervisory authority.
FRC is responsible for the implementation and enforcement of relevant supervisory law. The Commission’s enforcement powers are derived from its supervisory mandate. Within the limits of its statutory powers, the FRC undertakes on-site and off-site inspections, and issues sanctions where necessary. It is imperative for firms and individuals - who undertake regulated activities - to comply with respective rules and legislation; otherwise they will be subject to sanctions. To ensure compliance with respective legislation, the FRC monitors activities of supervised entities on an ongoing basis, and works closely with other regulating bodies, and law enforcement. The Commission’s Supervision Department is mainly responsible for monitoring and supervising regulated activities, and identifying cases where enforcement action is necessary. The FRC has a range of enforcement measures - revocation, termination, suspension of licenses, issuance of warnings and fines – for firms and individuals that breach the law and/or engage in financial malpractice.
The FRC authorizes firms and individuals engaged in the non-bank financial sector. For example, the Commission grants licenses to institutions operating in the markets it supervises, and monitors compliance with statutory regulations and licensing requirements. It is vital that firms and individuals offering financial services (regulated by the FRC) operate in the best interests of consumers and meet the prudential requirements set by the FRC. The FRC imposes a range of requirements upon firms, and reviews items such as: business plans, capital adequacy, necessary resources and systems, and human capacity; for approval before granting authorization or registration. | 2019-04-26T05:49:23 | http://www.frc.mn/en/c/bidniituhai |
They were the first available and affordable a couple of years ago. They are fragile and feel lighter, and can't stand too many flat hits, the spin is decent and the rebound is similar to the celluloid kind, but slower. Use them if you have a tight budget and you are not too picky, but for serious tournament performance try to find something else.
I am an amateur player. I bought the balls online, and the first ball I used was very soft to the level that it could not be played. The seller provided me evidence that the balls are original, but apparently it is not uncommon that DHS balls are defectible. The other ball I used was better, but still very slow compared to other 40+ balls like Nittaku and Tibhar that my friends have.
It is quite different than old material. The quality is also not consistent on one ball and on different balls. One example, if you use thumb to press on the ball surface, some areas are really soft (like those 1 star cheap brand balls), some areas are medium hard (the hardness and consistency of the hardness definitely are not compariable to the YinHe and XuShaoFa). I just couldn't believe this ball is used in many international tournament Does DHS have different quality 3 star balls like its Hurricane rubbers which have national team version, provincial versions and the retail version.
Too heavy a ball for me. I've also played Yinhe and Nitakku Premium poly balls. Both are better while Nitakku is very good. I had no difficulty playing with it because its characteristics are so similar to a celluloid ball so that I couldn't even see any difference in its bounce and flight trajectory. | 2019-04-26T12:13:32 | https://revspin.net/balls/dhs-40-plus-3-star.html |

Your event signage plays an important part in influencing your party’s aesthetic and informing your guests of important information. Event signage can be a fun and creative outlet that you can use to make your function uniquely yours. Find out some creative ways to make your event signage exciting and valuable for your guests.
Use your surroundings – When thinking about the positions and areas you want to place your signage, have a look at your surroundings. For directional signage, think creatively and pretend to be one of your event attendees. What areas of your space catches your attention first? Stick a sign there. Don’t forget to place signs around any escalators, lifts or stairwells as well! If allowed to, place some signs on the floor to direct your crowd.
Textured signage – To promote your brand or event, think about designing a textured sign. Textured signage can include features such as faux fur, artificial grass, and large 3D lettering. Having your brand or event name in a large feature will heighten interest and influence people to want to know more.
Instead of a guest book, install a guest wall – A guest wall is a fun way to increase engagement with your attendees. A guest wall is a designated area where your attendees can write a message or even draw a little picture. The advantage of a guest wall is that you can also use the guest wall to feature in the backdrops of your event photos and selfies.
Make your signage digital to showcase multiple messages – If your event venue has screens available, you are able to take advantage of this by using dynamic signs. In being able to use screens, you can showcase multiple messages that transition through in a loop. Further, if you intend to gamify parts of your event, having screens that you can control will makes things drastically easier. Having digital signage will also save you a lot of time in cleaning up after your event has finished.
Social media walls – If your event has a large digital screen available, you should consider incorporating a social media wall. These are large digital walls that will showcase any social media posts that use your event’s unique hashtag. You’re able to control and monitor what content ends up onscreen, so you don’t have to worry about anything inappropriate being promoted. Social media walls are a great way for your attendees to share their experiences at your event with the wider community.
For more ideas on your event signage and for assistance with planning your event, get in touch with our team of expert event planners. Give us a call on (03) 8199 3733 to make sure that your function leaves a memorable impression! | 2019-04-24T04:25:20 | https://melbournesbestfunctions.com.au/2018/05/06/creative-event-signage-ideas-for-your-next-event/ |
malfunction. When the amplifier gets repaired, it’s recommended to replace the relays also; that’s because the contacts will be damaged more or less, depending on how much current and how long the arcing occurred. This is still cheaper than a pair of special relays. For AC inductive loads (cosq = 0.4), the contacts of the G2R high capacity relay used in this design are rated for 16A and 180V. For DC resistive loads, the contacts are rated at 16A and 30V. For DC inductive loads, refer to the graphics under Engineering Data in the G2R relay datasheet. As it is, this circuit works well for my 40W power amplifier. It will probably work for amplifiers with up to 100W of power. For amplifiers with more power, different relays will have to be selected. As I said before, this is important, and it will save your expensive speakers if the correct relay is chosen. NV ■ FIGURE 5. Schematic of the circuit with AC detection.

According to a recent report by the credit rating agency Standard & Poor’s, the credit rating of the US Treasury could drop from its current AAA rating to A by 2015. A further decline to BBB could occur by 2020.
There is another grade, AA, between AAA and A, but the press release about the report doesn’t say when a drop to AA might occur.
The report, Global Graying Country Report: United States of America, is one of a series of reports on the potential impact of aging societies on the credit ratings of sovereign national governments. Standard & Poor’s began releasing the series of reports to its RatingsDirect subcribers on May 31, 2006. The report on the US was issued on June 5.
Without concerted policy and fiscal reforms, the aging U.S. population will lead to intense pressure on the public finances and the ratings on the sovereign, Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services said in a report published today.
A fiscal deterioration of that magnitude would not be compatible with the current ‘AAA’ long-term sovereign rating on the U.S. After 2015 it would fall into the ‘A’ category, and would then drop further into the ‘BBB’ category by 2020. In 2025, U.S. fiscal indicators would have weakened to an extent that they would be more typical of performances currently associated with speculative-grade sovereigns.
This scenario is not a prediction by Standard & Poor’s. It is a simulation that highlights the importance of age-related spending trends as a factor in the evolution of sovereign creditworthiness. In reality, it is highly unlikely that governments will allow debt and deficit burdens to spiral out of control. Once governments are confronted with unsustainably rising debt burdens they do react, however reluctantly, by tightening the fiscal stance and/or reforming expenditure programs.
The scenario analysis therefore gives some valuable insights about the power of policy choices. If the U.S. were to embark on a radical structural reform preventing age-related spending from rising, fiscal indicators would hold up much better. Following such a concentrated policy approach, the U.S. net debt ratio would be only 40% of the ratio under the no-policy-change base-case. The theoretical sovereign rating would not fall below the ‘BBB’ category even by the middle of the current century.
I was under the impression that the government cannot default on its loans by definition? Because they can always raise taxes and/or print more money? Or is this view too simplistic?
Mario – What you thought is what I thought. It’s what we all learned in Economics 101. That’s why the S&P report is such a shocker.
Nonetheless, fiscal responsiblity is a rational issue and we elect leaders for emotional, not rational, reasons. So the news from Washington is all about emotional issues like flag-burning instead of rational issues like fiscal responsibility. | 2019-04-22T01:00:48 | http://savings-bond-advisor.com/us-credit-rating-could-drop-within-10-years/ |
Commenting on blogs is a great way to win high PR links from relevant sources while also establishing new relationships with significant influencers within your niche. It also a great way to create large volumes of links across a relatively short timeframe because blog commenting opportunities are often readily available. However, as is also the case with directory submissions, it is important that you know whether the blogs you comment on are high quality, and whether the links generated will actually be valuable.
At AlphaMedia we have integrated a streamlined blog commenting service that ensure we create insightful, thoughtful and relevant comments on high quality blogs that will flow additional authority back to your site. We are always careful to ensure that the links we create add something to the conversation, and they aren't just created with the purposeful intention of building links. The other positive aspect of this strategy is that you can establish relationships with the bloggers themselves, and this can lead to guest blogging opportunities, as well as that blogger potentially endorsing the services you offer. This can potentially be a very powerful asset if you are operating in a particularly competitive niche.
Blog comments, if interesting and engaging enough, can also be used to create another source of traffic to your site because other readers of the blog will want to know more about the person who posted the comment, and will therefore follow the link we create. If you want to learn more about how our blog commenting service can improve your link building campaign, please contact one of our expert SEO strategists now. | 2019-04-24T08:36:57 | http://alphamedia.in/blog-posting-service.html |

Did you know that when your presenting your audience will remember 70% of the start, 20% of the middle of your presentation and 100% at the end…. that means that during the “meat” of your presentation your audience will forget 80% of it!!
So it was interesting to learn about how to grab & keep your audience’s attention throughout your presentation. I thought i’d share some of the interesting points i’ve learnt….
Mini drama’s: Tell a story… give a scenario or day in the audience’s life. This works effectively in sales if you then repeat the scenario but with the new product /process you are selling.
Number plays: If you have some meaningful numbers that you want to share with your audience rather than just adding them into powerpoint why not use a flip chart / whiteboard. You can write the number’s out in advance and then during your presentation add the context to the numbers… writing them in real-time will make them more impactful to your audience.
There were a few more – but these were the most interesting. Do you have any good suggestions you want to share? Any success stories? | 2019-04-21T18:02:08 | http://samanthacooper.co.uk/grabbers-presentation-tips/ |

Do I Need An Estate Plan If I'm Single, Without Kids And No Assets?
If you are single, don't have children or don't have significant assets, an estate plan is still very important for you.
When we do an estate plan, we're not only doing death planning but we are also planning for potential incapacity. And if you were to become incapacitated, whether temporarily or permanently, that is one of the most complicated and expensive things that could happen to you in terms of the law.
You would be subject to what's called a conservatorship. And if you were to have a power of attorney and advanced healthcare directive (medical power of attorney) set up, you could potentially avoid a conservatorship. So the fact that you are single does not mean that you don't have close family members or friends that would be concerned and want to take care of you should something bad happen to you.
If have these documents in place, it will be much more simple. It will be cheaper. Everything will happen much faster and your family and friends can take care of you. So an estate plan is very important for you whether you're single or married, kids, no kids, significant assets or not.
Everyone should have an estate plan. | 2019-04-21T06:21:57 | https://www.ambiddlelaw.com/lawyer/Single-without-any-children-or-assets,-do-I-still-need-an-estate-plan-_cp18819.htm |

Alexis Joelle : Wait...You Can Pull Off Over 90% Productivity??
Wait...You Can Pull Off Over 90% Productivity??
If this is you and you are an Occupational Therapist, please speak now or forever hold your peace in this mastery of an unheard skill.
New value-based OT evaluation codes were released in January and some occupational therapists claim they are able to meet 90% productivity (and higher) when being asked to accomplish this at some settings! Can you believe it?
I am scratching my head at the confusion...this is so 2016 shenanigans.
no other non-OT person has the right to make this decision.
Other disciplines working directly with this client who is not immediately present in the room at exactly the time you are having your session or caregiver/family involved.
am I missing any scenarios?
If you are able to physically master documentation on an IPAD while doing ADL treatment in a bathroom... or in the patient room while treating them, you MUST share your secrets with us. As OTs we have impressive talents including adapting devices and their user-ability.
...or needing to monitor their vitals while the client takes that rest break.
...or they have an aspiration risk that needs our eyes on them for the whole meal they are being trained to feed themselves with.
...or it's their first time handling that razor to shave themselves for grooming and their cognitive awareness isn't quite up to independent standards.
Other additional things like transporting a patient to and from our evaluation/treatment space of choice (when this is not conducted in the client's room), clean up of materials and etc can likely be delegated right?....hmmm not sure if there is a designated rehab aide in all settings yet but, having an assistant is helpful when we cannot do it all.
1. SELF CARE: I see the burnout and lack of self compassion for my occupational therapists who are my students, colleagues and clients of mine.
They are conforming to a non-OT rule to the way of evaluation, practice and treatment. Sure there is business to be done, we HAVE to get paid to put food on the table and a roof over our's and our family's heads... and I am not even talking about this being about having "no other choice." It is to point out that some disregard themselves as even being human, imperfect and doing their best...and that human I speak of (you!) must come first to truly serve your clients.
2. CARE FOR COLLEAGUES: we want them to be their most successful in assisting their client and decrease their burnout as well. They flourish from our guidance and training to facilitate our client's access to their life occupations. Take that time to say "how are you?" "How can I help?" Connect with their human self.
and yet, are they getting their value's worth for the evaluation, practice and treatment we provide them?
...or is it a day at the rehab gym?
Spend social time with their grandchild?
Get back into their golf swing?
Write that letter to their best friend on the other side of the coast?
Put on their make up every morning?
Pull the weeds from their garden?
Wipe their tuchus on their own despite being incontinent so they can live with their children at home and not worry about them cleaning up after themselves?
Play their favorite instrument again?
Make it to their Mah-jong game on time?
This is why I love and live off my copy of the Occupational Therapy Framework because I know if I get lost, there will always be it's guidance in getting back to my client's occupations.
we need to protect our profession even when, and especially when, things are going right.
1. Go easy on yourself...you are productive when you are with your clients working toward their occupation based goals.
AOTA provides you with a copy of an occupational profile template to use with your clients to accomplish this.
Didn't get formal training at your site for this?!
Here is the OT evaluation worksheet I compiled to help you figure out the formula of what code to choose for which patient (not every client or diagnosis fits all).
"what other resources are out there that can help me shift from defeat of ethical dilemmas to champion mode?"
understanding their occupations to their fullest, jam packing my assessment and intervention with therapeutic use of self and seeing them flourish on their own to access what is meaningful to them.
REMEMBER: productivity does not equate billable time; make either effort occupation based.
When it comes to OT, what makes your heart sing?
2. Share this with your fellow OT colleagues as we don't know what we don't know and sharing the resources is mandatory so they too can do what they do best in practice.
well, the only way I am 90% productive is ... work off the clock! I am unable to process information aka concentrate in a group of my coworkers and their patients in the rehab gym. I'm a COTA and my heart is in ADLS and IADLS and therapeutic use of self. I was feeling totally burnt out... and then I got a spark again while listening to Mandy Chamberlins pod casts and searching blogs like yours. I know my working off the clock isn't helping the greater good,,, but I know I give my patients 100% productivity and that's all I can worry about. I will ask my colleagues who put the Christmas tree up themselves and cook or prepare for our private potlucks!... why are we at least engaging the patient in these activities? Perfect balance activity is placing ornaments on the Christmas tree (as long as the patient is wanting to participate in it) they are missing their family and the celebrations why not have them help us? And that's just ONE example of what goes on in the rehab gym while our patients are doing rote exercises and activities!
I appreciate you Debbie! For being occupation based. For being client centered. For being community centered! I do ask of you to give yourself care because you deserve Occupational balance.

HOUSTON – (April 9, 2019) – Recognizing the complexity of fuel delivery logistics, Motiva announces the launch of FuelFill: an innovative digital ecosystem that connects carriers, wholesalers and site operators in real-time. The innovative program, which is available from Motiva nationwide to customers selling all fuel brands, connects the parties throughout the order and delivery process in a single, simple-to-use digital platform.
From the rack to the pump, customers can manage order generation, carrier procurement, real-time order/vehicle tracking and electronic delivery of all documents from the FuelFill dashboard. Unlike the dispatching software currently available on the market, Motiva’s FuelFill Program is a freight-to-invoice solution that has created an open carrier marketplace by combining industry-leading technology with 24/7 back-office support.
The FuelFill Program is Motiva’s second technology-driven offering designed to help wholesalers grow their businesses. In January 2018, Motiva first partnered with GetUpside, a mobile app that provides consumers personalized cash-back offers on fuel purchases. More than 6,000 retail stations and more than 30,000 consumers are connected each day through the GetUpside app, increasing stations’ sales volumes by as much as six percent in some markets.
“Technology disruptions often start small, but eventually they gain enough power to overtake those unable or unwilling to adapt to the new marketplace,” Rubin said.
As a completely scalable solution, the FuelFill Program enables wholesalers to increase capacity by centralizing and standardizing fuel delivery processes while significantly improving audit and payment accuracy. With the manual burden of managing fuel deliveries and back office operations eliminated, customers can stabilize their supply chain, lower their operational cost burden and improve their overall order-to-cash cycle.
To learn more about or enroll in Motiva’s FuelFill Program, wholesalers can contact their Motiva Territory Manager or go to www.motiva.com/fuelfill for more details. | 2019-04-26T12:12:37 | https://motiva.com/Media/In-the-news/19-04-08-Motiva-Announces-FuelFill-Program |
Luke always asks me to make him “healthy” prepped meals that he can take to work. He works long hours, so sometimes he will eat more than one meal on a shift, so it’s easy for him to take multiple meals and eat when he can.
Anyway, I’m not a fan of healthy, green, granola lifestyle type of cooking. Give me the butter, fat, cream and sugar! That’s just how I am, but Luke is not! He tries his best to eat right and eat clean. So I try my best to accommodate for him every now and then!
A few months ago, Luke was working in the valley and found a healthy food store that prepped meals. One of the meals was a ground turkey egg roll bowl, he fell in love with it. He came home from that trip and kept asking me to make it for him, so I did.
I’ve made it a few times since, and tweaked the ingredients here and there. I like using ground chicken, but it could be done with just about anything! Hope you enjoy!
Dice the yellow onion, garlic and carrots, set aside. Pour sesame oil into pan over medium high heat and begin cooking the ground chicken. Salt and pepper the chicken lightly. When the chicken seems mostly cooked through, add in the cabbage, yellow onion, garlic and carrots. As they cook down, season with garlic powder and onion powder. Add in soy sauce, taste the mixture and if it needs more soy sauce add a teaspoon more at a time, till you have achieved a taste to your liking.
Remove the pan from heat and throw in diced green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve in bowl and add Sriracha mayo on top if desired. Let cool and it is ready to serve. | 2019-04-22T22:29:35 | https://theathomecookblog.com/2018/04/03/chicken-egg-roll-in-a-bowl/ |

Since starting out in business 78 years ago, we’ve come a long way. In keeping with our vision to transform the business from strictly manufacturing to becoming a technology company and solution provider, we’ve just opened the doors on a new Innovation and Quality Centre in Bendigo, Victoria.
The temporary centre brings together our design engineers and quality assurance staff while our new purpose-built facilities are being developed. We’re excited to have the right mix of talent all working under the one roof to proactively identify and solve some of the common challenges faced by our customers on mining sites across Australia! Our Innovation Division is growing, with a new trainee on board. Rhiannon Jenkins recently started work with our Quality Assurance Team, while studying for her Diploma of Engineering at Bendigo TAFE.
We’re pleased to have Rhiannon on the team and look forward to providing her with an inspiring learning environment. | 2019-04-25T06:50:42 | http://keech.com.au/new-innovation-and-quality-centre/ |
I’ve wondered how critics—musical, literary, etc.—can tell if someone or some people have put emotion into their work. After all, paintings, songs, stories, and movies are inanimate. They are products, created and revised and polished to a shine. The only emotions they hold are derived via inference.
Hypothetically, if an artist is skilled enough, he or she could so carefully create a work of art that it feigns earnestness. Aren’t all artists storytellers in a sense? Aren’t liars as well?
There are plenty of amateur bands whose members feel strongly but don’t perform well in a technical sense. There are authors who write from someplace in their hearts yet cannot move anyone else because they don’t know how to convey what they feel. Following this logic, good art is created not from emotion but from skill and only skill—which means in turn that skill can imply/imitate empathy.
Thus, art can and does fake emotion.
Songwriting is an appropriate example. If you can write a half-decent melody over, say, a I-V-IV-iv progression (which is C-G-F-F minor in the key of C major), you can provoke an emotional reaction in listeners. Seen through the lens of music theory, music often seems like a formula: Certain notes arranged in a certain pattern will cause a certain biochemical reaction in the brain. I’m willing to bet that the most commercial songwriters view music like mathematicians view functions—plug in value x, get result y.
Even writing and painting could only adhere to formulas. Our brains are likely wired to enjoy specific organizations of words or of colors and textures.
Granted, artistic formulas aren’t perfect. Context is an external force no artist can control. Still, though, we could simplify art into two qualities—skill and context—one controlled by the artist, the other by the environment. In this model, the audience is still powerless.
As both a purveyor and (amateurish) creator of art, I’ve always been frustrated by the divide between what I feel and what I say. If the solution has always been an equation... maybe I just need to take more math classes.
Before we reach the nitty-gritty of this blog post, I request that you suspend your disbelief at least until you finish reading everything I have to write.
New Year’s resolutions are bogus.
Yes, I know that they’re traditional and motivational and comforting—but they’re effectively bogus.
Let’s examine the situation. We assign so much value to the beginning of each “new year”, the time at which the Earth completes one more revolution around the sun (it’s not mathematically exact, but it’s close enough for human standards). But this calendar is arbitrary. Some people in Europe—likely noblemen and high-ranking religious officials—met and decided that the year would begin at this here point of the seasonal cycle. Heck, the Chinese New Year starts on a different date. January 1 is a random name and number assigned to a roughly twenty-four-hour period in time within Earth’s orbital period of approximately 8766 hours.
What about holidays? They’re generally created to celebrate something specific. Christmas and Easter are religious holidays. Thanksgiving was started to give thanks for the harvest. The list goes on.
Out of all these annual celebrations, none is more arbitrary than New Year’s.
But I don’t mean to wax invective about the holiday itself—it’s nice to celebrate having survived one more year. No, I’m taking closer aim.
Picture this scene (one of many hypothetical scenarios): On New Year’s Eve, family members sit together in front of the television, which is displaying either a pop music act or a few random people oversimplifying what happened in the preceding year. One of those family members (most likely one of the parents) brings up the subject of New Year’s resolutions to kill time. Everyone in the room is then forced to condense his or her goals for the coming year into concise bullet-point items. After January—very likely after New Year’s Day itself—no one mentions these goals again.
First, it’s unhealthy to measure the “success” of a year by whether or not you met a few goals that you only spent a few minutes thinking about, anyway. Certainly it’s nice to follow through on your spur-of-the-moment plans, but it’s also nice to get an extra Christmas present despite being satisfied with the ones you already unwrapped.
If you treat your goals as utterly trivial, assigning no importance to them, well, what’s the point of setting them? It’s like adding more achievements to a video game. In the end, they do nothing for you. Maybe there’s a positive psychological effect hidden in the setting and achieving of New Year’s goals, but it certainly isn’t life-changing.
Let’s suppose that you set serious goals, then, and resolve to achieve them no matter what. Then you wake up on New Year’s Day (hangover optional) and never think about them again except when you look at the paper taped above your desk with the neat little list of things you now know you will never accomplish within 365.25 days. Congratulations!—you’ve just diminished your self-esteem for another year. Just leave the list above your desk because you already know what your resolutions will be for next year.
What if you don’t know what you want to do with your year? No one should expect to be struck by an epiphany on December 31 when the other 364 days of the year were inspirationally as barren as the Sahara. Don’t fret. Circumstances change. If you have no good ideas, don’t force out bad ones. If you do and make poor resolutions, throw them out when you realize they aren’t helping you.
Stop making resolutions on New Year’s Eve.
New Year’s resolutions only function as artificial motivation for people who normally don’t have as much as they would like to. If you are able to successfully set resolutions on New Year’s Eve, congratulations: You’re a motivated individual. Now set resolutions on any days other than December 31 and January 1. Try setting goals for the summer, or the winter, or any other arbitrary period of time. Don’t tie your biggest motivation to the turn of each new year. You’re better than that.
And for the rest of you—myself included—don’t wait for the next year to set goals for yourself. Please. You’ll do yourself a favor by working on self-motivation all year long instead of the last fading days of December.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to write down my own New Year’s resolutions.
1. Stop making New Year’s resolutions.
2. Write a novel, darn it!
I intended to write blog posts during my first semester in college, but the plan never came to fruition. In fact, all of my writing came to a standstill during that semester, not from lack of free time but lack of inspiration. It seems contradictory: In a new place with new people and new things to do, shouldn’t I be overwhelmed with ideas?
The problem, I suppose, is that I didn’t want to treat living on college campus as only material for writing. I participated—joined clubs, made friends, and rapped on karaoke night—without ensuring that my experiences would make good blog posts. There aren’t any big takeaways from my first semester to share.
I probably need to wait until I’ve graduated to organize my time in college into something like an analysis. In the meantime, I’ll think of college life as an experiment; in other words, I’ll write the paper later.
Set an agreement—write it if you need to—with your roommate(s) in the beginning of the semester to avoid future arguments.
Attend class, for crying out loud.
If you have a problem, try to address it immediately instead of waiting on it.
Joining extracurricular clubs is a great way to meet new people who share at least one of your interests.
You will probably run across alcohol. You do not need to drink it.
“What will happen to this blog in the future?” you may be asking of your computer screen. Well, dear imaginary concerned reader, I intend to branch out so that I will have more material to publish. Expect some short creative writing to be intermixed with my usual “oh-hey-look-at-this-thing-I-thought-of” posts. This blog won’t become a monthly affair for a while at least, but I will strive for that sort of regularity.
I'm not sure which is more influential in the transition from high school to college: enrolling in a university or searching for one. I would opine that the college search process is part of the filter in place to winnow the worthy high school graduates from the unworthy, but that issue is for another blog entry.
Below, I have separated the process of searching for a college into roughly discrete stages. Consider it a layman's psychological analysis. (More research is required to determine if each stage is accompanied by differences in brain chemistry, but I'll leave such in-depth work to people who actually know what they are talking about.) If you searched for a college this year, most of these stages should apply to you. If you knew from the beginning that you would be attending community college, read this only if you want to laugh at what the rest of us go through. If you could afford to go anywhere, well, you're a lucky fellow, and can we please switch bank accounts?
The stage most subject to interpretation. This stage likely begins after you enter high school. Some people spend this stage daydreaming in their idle time about how fun and exciting college life will be; others visit campuses as early as junior year (sophomore year for the crazy-prepared types) and begin fashioning concrete plans about applications and test-taking; still others experience anxiety and think of ways to avoid higher education, such as becoming a plumber, or a hobo.
You have thought about college, but in this second stage, you work for it. Most likely, you are a junior or senior. Studying for the SAT and/or ACT is your top priority. This is the stage that will decide once and for all where you will be able to apply for college without looking like a fool. Stress is common. After all, your scores are the only determiners of your educational future. Nothing else matters. Nothing else at all.
You have your test scores (and are likely either jubilating or sobbing over them). Now you have to decide where you will send applications. Perhaps you tour colleges; maybe you peruse your notes from your prior visits; or perchance you look up colleges on Google Images and ascertain which ones have the prettiest campuses. Most people struggle with deadlines, application essays, and extra requirements. Do not give up. At the other side of this stressful time is another but more rewarding stressful time. You just have to pay a lot of money in application fees to get there.
Something went wrong. Maybe the Common Application was giving you trouble; maybe the colleges to which you applied provide you with price estimates too high for your budget; maybe a college representative is claiming that letters of recommendation were not received. Whatever the case, you have to find a way out of your predicament. Whether this means more college visits, more applications (college or scholarship), or more phone calls, you soldier through it.
Maybe your final decision was fraught with angst. Maybe you were practically forced to make a decision at gunpoint. Maybe you were literally forced to make a decision at gunpoint (not a surprising possibility). Regardless, this is the end of your journey. You have decided on a college. Now the only things standing between you and attending an institution of higher learning are an enrollment deposit, payment for wherever you will be living, and miles of red tape that may or may not impede your progress.
There are a lot of things I want to do in my lifetime, but only some of those things do I hold near my heart. Below, I have listed some of my more significant life goals in no particular order.
get a job contributing to software development, artificial intelligence, or related research.
live to see humanity colonize bodies in space other than the Earth.
write blog entries with some regularity.
own a shirt with a math-related joke on it.
write a second singer-songwriter album.
become at least a decent singer / instrumentalist, preferably before releasing the aforementioned albums.
get short stories published in magazines.
play a great solo on an electric guitar.
put a lot of distortion on an electric guitar and pretend I'm a guitarist from the nineties.
be called "a great guitarist".
get at least one hundred followers on Twitter.
have a conversation without saying "um" or "uh" at all.
have a conversation without awkward pauses.
easily use obscure, esoteric vocabulary words without trouble in casual conversation.
use obscure, esoteric vocabulary words in a rap battle.
win the aforementioned rap battle.
be able to rap without sounding weird.
watch the entirety of a ten-hour video on YouTube.
collect enough knowledge to effectively be a walking reference book.
not be booed off the stage after doing stand-up comedy.
act in a good film, amateur or otherwise.
help design a video game or computer game.
have a month's worth of music in my iTunes library.
fill up my Kindle with e-books.
successfully change American English grammar so that punctuation is only placed within quotation marks when the punctuation is part of the quotation.
successfully link four or more independent clauses with semicolons and make the resulting sentence look awesome.
be called "one of the defining writers of our time".
be called "the greatest influence on the English language since Shakespeare".
make people laugh at command.
hear either of my parents say with complete honesty, "You aren't a smart-aleck at all!"
not do stupid things occasionally, only do smart things.
basically be one of the coolest guys ever.
Basically, if I don't meet all of my reasonably high aspirations, I will be disappointed with my life. It's a good thing I picked easily achievable goals.
I intended to post this blog entry a few weeks ago, but college research got in the way. Since one of the items on my list, Propaganda's Crimson Cord, was released today (and is awesome, incidentally), I figured I'd post the rest of my most anticipated albums before any more of them are released.
I'm a little late to the Copeland bandwagon, but I've already come to love all four of their major LPs (that is, not counting Dressed up & in Line). When Copeland announced on April 1 that they were reuniting for a fifth album, I didn't want to believe the news for fear that it would be revealed as an April Fools' Day prank.
It wasn't. The first release from Ixora, the somber piano affair "Ordinary", doesn't showcase the full band but does offer a tantalizing glimpse at what I'm sure will be another solid Copeland release.
Released songs "Midnight" and "Magic" show Coldplay experimenting with relaxing, electronica-tinged ambience as opposed to more structured melody -- which I daresay is at least a partial continuation of the shifting of musical gears that started with Mylo Xyloto. My prediction: Ghost Stories will be a quiet, pensive album, especially relative to its bombastic older siblings Mylo Xyloto and Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends. Will it be better? Maybe. I doubt I'll be disappointed, though; Coldplay is quite a dependable band.
Considering how easily The Black Keys could fit onto a classic rock radio station, it's a bit surprising (at least to me) how popular they are on modern radio stations. Maybe the music scene will always need rock 'n' roll. But I don't mean to digress -- "Fever" is a by-the-numbers Black Keys jam, but its familiarity doesn't change two facts: 1. it's a catchy song, and 2. The Black Keys are releasing another album.
I know nothing about Anberlin's seventh album except that it will be their last. It's a little disappointing to see them go -- I only became a fan this year after realizing that Cities is far better than I first thought it was -- but I am sure they will go out with a bang.
While Anberlin hasn't released any songs from their seventh LP (I don't even know if songwriting / recording has finished), I can conjecture that their newly found affinity for electronic accompaniment (which was displayed to full effect in Vital) will carry over to their final release.
Too much time has passed since Counting Crows last released an album of original music (Saturday Nights & Sunday Mornings in 2007), so one could say that they have an obligation to release something new. Am I excited to hear that they have a new album in the works? Yes. They've been around since the nineties, but their musical output never really dipped in quality, so my expectations are high.
When You're Through Thinking, Say Yes was amazing. Summer Air was a little more amazing. Sure, drummer Longineu Parsons' departure isn't good news, but Yellowcard's recruitment of Anberlin's drummer Nate Young is. Even if Yellowcard's musical style shifts, as long as it remains upbeat, violin-tinged pop-punk / pop rock, I'll be happy with it.

Founded to provide ‘app makers’ with the ‘best place in the world to settle down’, Appsterdam is on a mission to create a community that brings together and supports the interests of app makers of all stripes around the world. Although Appsterdam does want to provide app makers with the tools to succeed professionally, such as ‘hangouts’, training, and opportunities for networking and collaboration, Appsterdam was really born out of a broader, social mission. As he explained to Venture Beat in an interview last year, Mike Lee one of his first objectives when creating Appsterdam was to he first sought to create an alternative for app makers to Silicon Valley. More specifically, he wanted to create a strong, supportive ecosystem for app makers in a liveable and, perhaps, more modest environment. Amsterdam, obviously, became the embodiment of this aspiration and is still very much the ‘homeland’ for Appsterdam. Mike’s next big goal for Appsterdam is for it evolve into a true democratic community, which he hopes to fully achieve with the launch of Appsterdam 3. So, the ultimate goal is not that Appsterdam will be a command-and-control type organisation, but one that lives by the energy and drive of its members.
Appsterdam has been growing and expanding steadily since its founding and can now boast of having over 1600 Appsterdamers and 7 ‘Embassies’ around the world. Obviously events, including meetups, workshops and various meetings, are a key part of the value that they bring app makers.

South Australia’s Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure has awarded BMD a road re-sheeting contract on Kangaroo Island, just off South Australia.
The 4,405 km² Kangaroo Island is southwest of Adelaide and renowned for its protected nature reserves which cover a third of the island. Home to native sea lions, koalas, diverse bird species, and penguin colonies. The striking coastline is famous for its rock formations, sculpted remarkable rocks and the Admirals Arch, covered in stalactites.
Following on from their successful upgrade of Kangaroo Island’s Airport runway, BMD was awarded the project in a project management contract administration (PMCA) capacity, the first time DPTI has conducted this construction model with a civil contractor.
With a strong portfolio of projects in some of the country’s most iconic locations, BMD is currently seeking a wide range of construction personnel to help deliver important infrastructure upgrades such as this. | 2019-04-24T15:57:32 | https://highways.today/2018/02/07/kangaroo-island-joy-road-upgrade/ |
About a year ago I found myself searching for a New Year’s resolution. Resolutions aren’t something I tend to do, but 2013 seemed like a good year to start. I was fresh out of college, stepping into not only the “real world” teachers had been warning me about for two decades, but the years of my life I had always assumed would be formative. The years in which I would grow from a young man to a regular man. The years that would define exactly who that man would be.
Looking forwards at 2013 from December 2012, it was clear to me that it would be a very important year, one that warranted a very important New Year’s Resolution.
So I decided to watch every one of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s films that came to theaters in 2013.
The 2013 Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson Initiative.
T2013D“TR”JI proved to be an emotional rollercoaster ride. At times it was hard. At times it was magical. But through it all I persevered. And more than that, Dwayne Johnson prospered.
Forbes recently named Dwayne Johnson the highest grossing actor of 2013, an achievement that is obviously due in some small part, largely, entirely, to a phenomenon known as the “Pony Tricks Bump.” Dwayne, Mon frère, you are welcome.
The proud, inaugural recipient of the Pony Tricks Bump.
Who will ride the Pony Tricks Bump all the way to the top in 2014? Who’s name will be forever immortalized when it is thrust between “The 2014” and “Initiative?” There were many, many contenders. But first, a retrospective.
The 2013 Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson Initiative became something far larger than the sum of its meager parts, but it started out, and in its heart forever remained, a New Year’s resolution. It was an earnest attempt to better myself, to grow as a person and to learn.
Snitch taught me that the drug laws in America today can be brutally unfair, and that if my son ever gets incarcerated I would be better of letting him rot in jail for the rest of his life, and even better off if I just avoid cooking up the concoction of chromosomes and sin that is a child all together.
G.I. Joe Retaliation taught me that I hate the movie G.I. Joe Retaliation.
Pain and Gain opened my eyes to the damage that can be done when real-life tragedy is adapted into a movie by an obtuse, irresponsible director. It also taught me that the brutal torture and murder of the wealthy is cool, because their money should be mine, because America, right?
Furious Six taught me to enjoy the ridiculous things in life. It taught me that not every moment is profound, that not every conversation is substantial and that not every runway is finite, but that they should all be enjoyed and savored for the gifts that they are while they’re still gifts to be given.
And it taught me not to have my heart set on a Wonder Woman movie.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s year was pretty top heavy. Starting in February 2013 The Rock had a new movie in theaters every month, but from June onwards theaters remained Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson-less. In the seven months since Furious 6 was released I’ve spent a lot of time applying the lessons The Rock has taught me to my everyday life and my day to day life has prospered for it. | 2019-04-21T08:29:52 | https://ponytricks.net/2013/12/31/the-2013-dwayne-the-rock-johnson-initiative-remembered-or-the-2014-initiative/ |

The number of people who accessed training at work via the union route in the past 12 months has risen by 9% to 67,000, according to TUC figures.
Union learning representatives, members tasked with helping their colleagues access training opportunities at work, have risen by 50% from 8,000 to almost 12,000, the figures show.
The research also reveals that there has been an increase in the number of learning agreements between employers and unions, with 278 new agreements signed involving learning reps and promoting union learning among the workforce.
TUC general secretary, Brendan Barber, said: “Union learning reps are bringing thousands of people back to learning where other approaches have failed.
Skills minister, Phil Hope, said: “The Union Learning Fund has been a huge success that has made a difference to thousands of workers up and down the country. | 2019-04-24T08:13:51 | https://www.personneltoday.com/hr/employee-take-up-of-training-via-unions-increases-9/ |
This was taken with my iPhone. Again, I have driven by this building a thousand times. I know I have said this so often, but with this Project everywhere I go, I am searching, looking and appreciating. We were on our way home and I was observing everything, textures, light on trees, colors, rivers, building, train tracks, literally everything. Just in the moment and appreciating (although being in the moment probably meant I wasn’t listening to my wife. Or was I? Can’t remember really :-). This is what I love the most, just appreciating and observing, instead of just chatting away, oblivious to the beauty around me.
As we drove past, I asked my wife to turnaround as I wanted to take a quick photo. I didn’t regret it. It is winter here in Connecticut, but the weather is so mild I am running around in shorts. Just being by this stream was so peaceful and was seriously a quick charge of my batteries. And you know what? It is FREE! Nature in it’s serene beauty, always around us, even if we choose to ignore it.
The building is awesome and even though now deserted it is almost like it has been retired to the stud farm. Neglected but content in a weird way. And she has the best view around. I have included 3 other versions that I did. Black and White, Aged and Tilt Shift (which gives it a mini / model look). Let me know which you prefer out of the 4.
Finally, I have to add this – it is awesome! My wishlist right now. The New Nikon 36.3 Mega Pixels…..Wow that is close to 3 times my current camera. I wonder if Santa will come early this year?
Thanks for the comments. It is a little detailed, but click on the tutorials link above and next month I will do an iPhone one with a how to of how I edited photos like this. I do that as I have time and when you sign up, you will get the first one immediately.
Let me know if you like it, have comments or requests.
Thanks Gina – And thanks as always for stopping by.
I am leaning towards the black and white… I think it speaks more to me than the color versions. Still #1 comes in a close second, its just a different story.
Beautiful! I’m glad you stopped by and noticed!
iPhone is crazy right? i left my rig in the car, although will be back there to stand in river with tripod etc. I use snapseed to edit iPhone shots. really good and can also use to edit photos on computer.
Thanks for stopping by and comments.
My fave is no 1 and I Sooo agree with your sentiments about seeing and appreciating. I’m in the same place. Woohoo! Enjoying your photos.
What a beautiful composition. I am totally hooked on tiltshift right now. It is a fun a app to play with!
I like the original and the black and white. I have an IPhone and should do more with it. Will look forward to the tutorials.
I know what you mean about listening to chatter!!
I like the version you used as the main picture best because of the purple and bright green on the bulding’s timbers. Lovely.
I like the first photo the best. iPhones can produce some really nice photos. I have a Droid that was doing really great stuff too, until recently and know it’s putting out some kind of ghost overlay on some of the photos. I’m ready to ditch it and go for the iPhone.
Ah – a “fixer upper”. Slap on a little paint and you are all set! I like the second one – makes me think of an old-time post card.
Really great pics…I wish I could produce such great pics with my iPhone…Lots of learning to do in that department (and photography in general). 🙂 I am just about 30-odd days into my Project366 and I am beginning to understand the sentiment behind “I am searching, looking and appreciating”.
Hi Kenneth! I like the first one best, but those are some interesting effects you used.
I like the last one too. Having the motion of the water flowing up close gives another world effect to the log structure. These are great. Thanks for following my blog!
Ok and maybe the last one which is blurred a bit !!!
Like many, I like the first & the b&w photo. Mostly I like you are using your smartphone to take photos.
Definitely the black and white version, that’s the one.
All 4 are beautiful…I keep going back to the B&W and the Aged. I love anything done in B&W. I think for me it allows me to see the shapes and shadows better. And the Aged version fits the subject well. I like that it’s got a muted colorfulness to it. Some of my favorite shots I’ve taken with my HTC Evo.
I’m drawing a blank, where is the Golf Art shop on Route 7?

A native of New Jersey, Alan Guth skipped his final year of high school to begin studies at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1964. Gaining his PhD in physics in 1971, he began a series of postdoctoral positions at Princeton, Columbia and Cornell universities and the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. While at Cornell he began collaborating with colleague Henry Tye on the creation of magnetic monopoles in the early universe and it was this work which led to his proposal of an inflationary universe. He moved back to MIT in 1980 and has worked there ever since.
Guth continues to work on inflation, including the possibility of igniting inflation in a hypothetical laboratory to create a new universe and whether inflation is eternal – it’s always going on, somewhere in the universe.
Guth has been awarded the Franklin Medal for Physics, the Eddington Medal, the Isaac Newton Medal, the Dirac Prize and the Gruber Prize in Cosmology and has been elected to the U.S. National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
Born in Moscow, Andrei Linde studied at Moscow State University and gained his PhD from the Lebedev Physical Institute in Moscow in 1975. After a brief stay at CERN in Geneva, he moved to Stanford University in 1990 and he remains a professor there today.
During the 1970s, Linde worked on models of the early universe which contributed to Guth’s proposal of inflation in 1980. Linde later suggested modifications to Guth’s theory to overcome some of its shortcomings, creating what was called “new inflation.” Linde soon abandoned that too and put forward a new, more general theory – chaotic inflation – which encompasses most of the inflation scenarios being studied today. Linde has continued to push the boundaries of inflation theory, proposing ever more exotic and peculiar versions. At one stage he suggested that our universe could exist on the inside of a single magnetic monopole made huge by inflation.
Linde has received the Lomonosov Award from the Soviet Academy of Sciences, the Oskar Klein Medal, the Dirac Medal and the Gruber Prize in Cosmology. He is a member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
Born in Moscow, Alexei Starobinsky studied at Moscow State University and the Landau Institute for Theoretical Physics in Chernogolovka near Moscow, gaining his PhD in 1975. Starobinsky has continued to work at the Landau Institute throughout his career and served as its deputy director from 1999 to 2003.
During the 1970s he studied particle creation in the early universe and from rotating black holes, work that led him to the theory of cosmological inflation. Later, along with colleagues, Starobinsky developed the theory of how quantum fluctuations in the early universe are blown up by inflation and provide the seeds of the large scale structure of the universe.
Starobinsky is a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences and in 1996 received its Friedmann Prize. He has been the editor of numerous journals and has been awarded the Tomalla Prize, the Oskar Klein Medal and the Gruber Prize in Cosmology. | 2019-04-19T19:09:15 | http://kavlifoundation.org/2014-astrophysics-laureate-biographies |
It’s no secret that the mainstream media largely dislikes Donald Trump. Dubbed the “opposition party” by former Trump chief strategist Steve Bannon, outlets from CNN to MSNBC to the Washington Post and beyond have made minimal efforts to hide their bias against for the President.
With the Mueller investigation looking more and more like the “hoax” Trump claims it is, the MSM passed through the Overton window of credibility long ago – as scores of “anonymously sourced” bombshells have failed to find their target. The result? They’re simply turning Trump into a billionaire martyr.
And now – as columnist David Harsanyi notes in the New York Post – the MSM has resorted to pedantic fact checks of Trump’s State of the Union address that make them look as desperate as they are biased to in their efforts to bring Trump down.
Politico – for example, insinuated that President Trump was lying about the sexual assault of “one in three women” who make the long journey north to cross into the United States illegally. Not so fast – Drumpf, said Politico, which deemed Trump’s statement only “partly true.” It’s actually 31 percent of women, who are sexually abused based on a 2017 Doctors Without Borders report.
The New York Times flatly interjected their opinion into their “fact check” of Trump’s SOTU address – ruling that Trump’s contention that there is “an urgent national crisis” at the border is “false” because illegal border crossings have been declining for two decades, and Customs and Border Protection agents had arrested just half of the number of people per month as they had in the mid-2000s.
As Harsanyi points out – the Times can’t simply define a national emergency using pretzel logic.
Trump didn’t take credit for the number of women in Congress whatsoever, and ” their nitpicking created the impression that somehow Trump had misled the public. He did not,” writes Harsanyi.
And here we get back to the pretzel logic – or a “clue” that you’re about to read a deceptive fact check on the topic of abortion, according to Harsanyi. When an author prefaces their comment by writing that “only” [insert small percentage] of viable babies are aborted, it serves to downplay the “fact check” with their own justification.
And despite the Post‘s efforts to downplay Trump’s abortion comments – they did not “fact check” him whatsoever. Nothing the Post wrote countered Trump’s claim that abortion on demand until (and after) crowning is legal in New York.
“How often it happens is up for debate. What the bill says is inarguable,” writes Harsanyi.
In summary – the mainstream media’s blatantly biased “fact checks” have once again revealed their failure to remain objective, honest and factual. And while those on the left who are deeply mesmerized by partisan echo chambers may let these critiques slide – critical thinkers, particularly swing voters, will see right through the joke that has become modern journalism. | 2019-04-19T16:57:40 | https://redliontrader.com/stream/msm-fact-checkers-reveal-their-anti-trump-bias-with-absurd-sotu-analysis/ |

One approach to understanding the behaviour of complex systems is individual-based modeling, which provides a bottom-up approach allowing for the consideration of the traits and behaviour of individual organisms. Ecosystem models aim to characterize the major dynamics of ecosystems, in order to synthesize the understanding of such systems and to allow predictions of their behaviour. Moreover, ecosystem simulations have the potential to help scientists address theoretical questions as well as helping with ecological resource management. Because in reality biologists do not have much data regarding variations in ecosystems over long periods of time, using the results of ecological computer simulation for making reasonable predictions can help biologists to better understand the long-term behaviour of ecosystems. Different versions of ecosystem simulations have been developed to investigate several questions in ecology such as how speciation proceeds in the absence of experimenter-defined functions. I have investigated some of these questions relying on complex interactions between the many individuals involved in the system, as well as long-term evolutionary patterns and processes such as speciation and macroevolution. Most scientists now believe that natural phenomena have to be looking as a chaotic system. In the past few years, chaos analysis techniques have gained increasing attention over a variety of applications. I have analyzed results of complex models to see whether chaotic behaviour can emerge, since any attempt to model a realistic system needs to have the capacity to generate patterns as complex as the ones that are observed in real systems. To further understand the complex behaviour of real systems, a new algorithm for long-term prediction of time series behaviour is also proposed based on chaos analysis. We evaluated the performance of our new method with respect to the prediction of the Dow-Jones industrial index time series, epileptic seizure and global temperature anomaly.

Lately, Zayn Malik has released a (trust us when we say) thrilling video for his song Let Me.
In recent interviews, including those with Ryan Seacrest, Zayn elaborated on the song. Apparently, his ex-girlfriend Gigi Hadid was quite a help to him while he wrote the song (as a muse, we mean).
At the beginning of the video, we see Zayn entering a party while Zayn’s collaboration with Sia “Dusk Till Dawn” is playing in the background. Throughout the video we see him doing some shady business, being an important man and all, and constantly “eyeing” (and not only) a girl which looks A LOT like Gigi Hadid.
The video ends with “to be continued”. Are we watching a music video or a movie though? We are truly thrilled and need to know how the story continues because of that cliffhanger… We are sure that a cliché “happy-ever-after” is not implied by the way the video ends? Is it? Is it, Zayn?
However, the plot of this video is really interesting and totally worth those 4 minutes of our time. Hint: There is a twist.
Zayn and Gigi Hadid broke up last March but according to their social media announcement they seem to be in good terms and their relationship appeared to have ended positively. | 2019-04-20T12:24:37 | https://www.metdaan.com/gigi-hadid-inspired-zayn-malik-song/ |

Every client-server conversation begins with a standardized three-way handshake. The client sends a SYN packet, the server responds with a SYN-ACK, and the TCP connection is established. In a SYN flood attack, the client sends massive numbers of SYN requests, and never responds to the SYN-ACK messages from the server.
This leaves the server with open connections awaiting further communication from the client. Each of these half-open connections is tracked in the TCP connection table, eventually filling the table up and blocking any more connection attempts, legitimate or otherwise.
To mitigate a SYN flood attack, the F5 BIG-IP system uses a technique called a SYN cookie approach, which is implemented in specialized F5 hardware (the Packet Velocity Accelerator or PVA). This technique uses a setting called the SYN Check Activation Threshold to indicate the maximum number of allowed connections in the SYN queue. If this limit is reached, the system assumes a defensive posture against a potential SYN flood attack.
The BIG-IP system does this by discarding the original SYN entries in the queue. It can discard this data because the last part of the three-part handshake contains an encoded reference to the original SYN request. So if the SYN request turns out to be valid and not part of the SYN flood attack, the BIG-IP system reconstructs the original SYN request from the data in the TCP connection, and allows the connection access to the protected network.
The attacker's SYN requests get responses, so they think the attack is working, but the connection table never reaches capacity because only valid connection requests earn slots in the connection table. | 2019-04-19T21:07:49 | https://www.f5.com/services/resources/glossary/syn-flood |

Langford will enter this year's draft after just one season at IU.
Indiana University guard Romeo Langford plans on declaring for the 2019 NBA draft, ESPN's Jonathan Givony reported on Thursday.
According to Givony, Langford is currently in New York, where he's scheduled to undergo surgery for a torn ligament in his thumb that he suffered in late November. The extent of the injury wasn't revealed until the end of the season.
"I plan on officially declaring for the draft next week," Langford told ESPN. "I'm looking forward to showing NBA teams all the things that they didn't see out of me during the college basketball season."
In his single season at IU, Langford was the team's leading scorer, averaging 16.5 points and 5.4 rebounds in 32 games for the Hoosiers during his freshman campaign.
Langford was 247Sports' sixth-ranked player in the Class of 2018 coming out of New Albany. In his four years at the high school, the 6'6", five-star recruit scored 3,002 career points and finished fourth all-time in state history for career scoring.
He led his team to a Class 4A state championship in 2016 and participated in the 2018 McDonald’s All-American Game. Langford was named Indiana's Mr. Basketball in 2018 and chose the Hoosiers over Kansas, Vanderbilt, Kentucky and North Carolina.
Langford is the projected No. 20 pick by The Crossover's Jeremy Woo. | 2019-04-26T09:51:13 | https://www.si.com/college-basketball/2019/04/04/romeo-langford-declares-2019-nba-draft-indiana |

From Amazon.com: What is the cultural dimension of sustainability? This book offers a thought-provoking answer, with a theoretical synthesis on cultures of sustainability. Describing how modernity degenerated into a culture of unsustainability, to which the arts are contributing, Sacha Kagan engages us in a fundamental rethinking of our ways of knowing and seeing the world. We must learn not to be afraid of complexity, and to re-awaken a sensibility to patterns that connect. With an overview of ecological art over the past 40 years, and a discussion of art and social change, the book assesses the potential role of art in a much needed transformation process.
Alameda County Arts Commission, in partnership with Alameda County Sustainability, Alameda County Probation Department, and Alameda County Office of Education, created this guide as a complement to the 2011 Art IS Education initiative.

This article from the Society for Organizational Learning’s journal Reflections highlights how artist Jay Mead uses the arts to connect people with nature and tap into their personal visions of a more sustainable future.
This essay, originally published in The Journal of Sustainability Education, describes a cross-age project between a fourth-grade class and university students in which the two groups of students worked together on a dramatic performance of Paul Fleischman’s book, Seedfolks (1997, 2014).
From Springer: This book addresses this challenge by proposing an integration of sustainability and arts education in both principle and practice.
In a global context of intensifying social, economic and environmental crises, education is key to raising awareness and motivating individuals and communities to act in sustaining life in our more-than-human world. But how is this done when the complexity and need for change becomes overwhelming, and schooling systems become complicit in supporting the status quo?
Drawing on critical education theory and precepts of creativity, curiosity and change, it documents a series of case examples that demonstrate how five principles of Education for Sustainability – critical thinking, systems thinking, community partnership, participation, and envisioning better futures – are found at the heart of much arts practice in schools. Featuring the creative work and voices of teachers working in arts-based inquiry and diverse community-engaged contexts, the book investigates how sustainability principles are embedded in contemporary arts education thinking and pedagogy. The authors are unapologetically optimistic in forming an alliance of arts and sustainability education as a creative response to the challenge of our times, arguing that while they may have operated on the margins of conventional pedagogy and curriculum, they have more than marginal impact.

The first big primary night of 2018 is in the books.
It was tough going for some Republican House members looking for a promotion. But it also might cause a little heartburn for Republicans who are hoping to return to the chamber, or join it for the first time.
Based on Tuesday's results, CNN is moving four races to a more competitive ranking -- all in favor of the Democrats. In three of those contests, Republicans remain strong favorites to hold the seat, but Democrats landed candidates they feel are good fits for the districts. That also is true in the fourth race on the list, which moves to the Toss-Up column. Of the 22 races now rated as Toss-Ups, 20 are currently held by Republicans.
As a reminder, Democrats need a net gain of 23 seats in order to win control of the House.
NC-09: GOP Rep. Robert Pittenger became the first incumbent to lose a renomination contest this cycle, creating an open seat opportunity for Democrats where the party had already landed a strong challenger. Democrat Dan McCready, a Marine Corps veteran and clean energy entrepreneur, received nearly 38,000 votes Tuesday -- roughly 4,000 more than Pittenger and GOP primary winner Mark Harris combined. McCready heads into the general election with $1.2 million in the bank compared to about $70,000 for Harris, a former pastor. This district went for Donald Trump by 12 points in 2016, but Democrats hold a clear edge in enthusiasm at this stage of the race. Race moves from Lean Republican to Toss-Up.
WV-03: State Sen. Richard Ojeda scored a convincing victory in the Democratic primary Tuesday night, receiving 52% of the vote against three challengers. Ojeda received nearly 30,000 votes in the primary, which came close to matching the total combined votes for the top four vote-getters in the GOP primary. State Del. Carol Miller won that seven-person contest with 24% of the vote. Democrats will face an uphill climb is this southern West Virginia seat. Donald Trump carried the 3rd District by 50 points in 2016 while Mitt Romney carried it by 32 points. But Ojeda's populist platform combined with his background as a decorated Army veteran who voted for Trump could appeal in a district that was represented by former Democratic Rep. Nick Rahall until he lost his 2014 re-election bid. Race moves from Solid Republican to Likely Republican.
IN-02: Three-term GOP Rep. Jackie Walorski will face off against Democrat Mel Hall in November. Hall, a former minister, received 42% of the vote in Tuesday's crowded six-candidate Democratic primary. Walorski won her last two races with comfortable margins after earning a narrow victory in 2012 to the seat vacated by current Democratic Sen. Joe Donnelly. Donald Trump won this district, home to South Bend and Elkhart, by 22 points. That was a dramatic swing from 2008, when Barack Obama and John McCain were separated by about 700 votes. Walorski enters the general election as a clear favorite, with a little more than $1 million in the bank as of mid-April. Hall starts off with $236,000 cash on hand, but he's shown an ability to stay competitive in fundraising the last two quarters. Race moves from Solid Republican to Likely Republican.
IN-09: This is another Hoosier State race with a heavily-favored GOP incumbent and a Democratic nominee who could pose a challenge. Democrat Liz Watson, a former congressional staffer, eclipsed two other candidates with 66% of the vote in Tuesday's primary. She'll face off against first-term Rep. Trey Hollingsworth in November. Watson has outraised Hollingsworth the past two fundraising quarters, although the Republican holds a cash-on-hand advantage of $432,000 to $297,000. Hollingsworth, whose net worth is in excess of $50 million, has the ability to help his own cause if necessary. In 2016, he spent $3.1 million of his own money on his campaign. The district includes some Indianapolis and Louisville suburbs, as well as Bloomington, home to Indiana University. Hillary Clinton won Monroe County, where the school is based, by 23 points in 2016. Race moves from Solid Republican to Likely Republican. | 2019-04-23T08:57:16 | https://www.kimt.com/content/national/482207101.html |

A 2-3 tree is a tree where a node can have 2 or 3 children nodes. A node with 2 children has one key (data) on it and we call it a 2-node whereas a node with 3 children has two keys on it and we call it a 3-node. Figure 1 shows an example of a 2-node and a 3-node.
Just like a node in a binary search tree, in a 2-node, the keys of a left child node must be less than or equal to the key of a parent node and the keys of the right child node must be greater than or equal to the key of the parent node. In case of a 3-node, the keys of the left child node must be less than or equal the left key of the parent node, the keys of the middle child node must be in between the middle key of the parent node, and the keys of the right child node must be greater than or equal to the right key of the parent node. An example of a 2-3 tree is given in Figure 2.
A 2-3 tree maintains the following 2 properties.
Perfect balance: Every path from the root to the leaf node has the same length.
Symmetric order: In order traversal yields keys in ascending order (just like a binary search tree).
We know that the height of the tree directly impacts the running time. Since the 2-3 has both 2-node and 3-node, the hight of the tree (h) varies as follows.
This means the height of the tree is in between $\log_2(n)$ and $\log_3(n)$.
The search operation on a 2-3 tree is similar to the search operation on a binary search tree. The only difference is when dealing with the 3-node. If we are searching for a key k and we are on a 3-node with keys a and b, we do the following.
If k is equal to any one of the keys, we stop.
If k is smaller than a, we continue the search operation towards a left child.
If k is in between a and b, we continue the search operation towards a middle child.
If k is larger than b, we continue the search operation towards a right child.
The insertion operation in a 2-3 is a little bit tricky. The insertion operation must make sure that the tree remains perfectly balance after the insertion. To insert a node $N$ in a 2-3 tree $T$, we need to consider 2 cases as follows.
If the tree is null, we make $N$ the root of the tree $T$.
Otherwise, search the tree unless we reach a leaf node where we need to insert it. In this case, we need to consider further 2 cases.
a. If the leaf node is a 2-node, make it a 3-node. This is illustrated in Figure 3.
b. If the leaf node is a 3-node then (a) make it a temporary 4-node (b) split the 4-node and make the middle key the parent of the other two keys. The left key becomes the left child and the right becomes the right child. This is illustrated in Figure 4.
Figure 5 illustrates the insert operation.
The implementation of a 2-3 tree is not straightforward. Due to its two kinds of nodes, it makes much more difficult to implement 2-3 tree than any other binary search trees. Even though we can implement a 2-3 tree, we go for a much better version of it. That means, we convert the 2-3 tree into a Red-Black tree and implement it.
Mapping 2-3 tree to Red-Black tree.
The process for converting 2-3 tree to a left leaning Red-Black tree is given below.
A 2-node becomes a new Black node.
We split the 3-node into two 2-nodes and insert a link between them. We move down the left node making the link left lean.
The left node (which was moved down) becomes the new Red node and the right nodes become the new Black node.
Let me illustrate steps 2 and 3 with an example.
When converting a 2-3 tree to a Red-Black tree, we make the following observation.
A red node cannot have a red child node.
A complete mapping from a 2-3 tree to an RB tree is illustrated in Figure 7. | 2019-04-21T20:19:54 | https://algorithmtutor.com/Data-Structures/Tree/2-3-Trees/ |

This morning I headed down to Nerd HQ which is just a couple blocks from the San Diego Comic Con for Major Nelson’s Tweet Up. There were a bunch of Xbox’s set up with the Kinect title Gunstringer and of course Gears of War 3 Horde 2.0. After Major’s introduction, he said that there’d be something really cool coming up a bit later. So I stuck around and what we got to see what was definitely worth the wait. A totally tricked out Star Wars Xbox 360, with a 320GB hard drive, a white Kinect sensor, a copy of Star Wars Kinect, and Kinect Adventures. There’s a video and more pics after the break.
The console itself is designed after R2-D2. It’s blue and white, and the Xbox’s green LEDs have been replaced by awesome blue ones (the Kinect sensor’s power LED is still green :/). There are power on and tray opening R2-D2 sounds, and we can’t forget about the controller. The controller is designed after C-3PO. An all gold front controller, with the new D-Pad, and wires near the headset jack to mimic C-3PO’s midsection. The bundle comes out later this year (whenever Star Wars Kinect is set to launch), and will retail for $449.99, which is a steal! Overall, this is an awesome bundle that not only Star Wars fans will cherish, but any collector or new Xbox owner will also love.
Even more details with a lot of high res pics can be found at Major Nelson’s Blog.

The Santa Ponsa Yacht Club is located on one of the most beautiful coastlines of Mallorca in one of the island’s most elegant and at the same time most discreet seaports. Unlike many ports it is a quiet place, perfect for families. It is integrated into a residential complex with golf courses and close to many attractive spots, but is only 25 km away from Palma's international airport.
The port was built in 1975 in a natural cove called Sa Caleta. It was here on September 11th 1229 that King Jaime I ‘the Conqueror’ initiated the conquest of the Balearic islands, which were then under Islamic rule. This event is commemorated by the Cross of the Conqueror, located at the top of the cove and visible from the bay of Santa Ponsa.
The width of the cove (70 metres) guarantees easy access even in the worst weather. Upon entering the port, you see the fuel station with its 30-m-long dock, which makes for easy refuelling.
The visitor experiences a new sensation: a long shoreline between areas of greenery, with berths for more than 522 boats of lengths between 7 and 22 m. Everything here is different. It has the feel of a natural port combined with the necessary infrastructure to cover all the user's needs. Cafeterias, restaurants, a diving school and specialized shops are just a few of the facilities offered by the Yacht Club.
The boatyard, covering more than seven thousand square meters, has a complete array of services including mechanical workshops, paint workshops, rigging and upperwork services, nautical carpentry, signwriting, winter storage, a 50-ton travelift, a 9-ton forklift and a 1.5-ton crane for small boats. Moreover, the port staff and 24-hour surveillance make this port an ideal place of relaxation for all international visitors. | 2019-04-25T20:13:35 | http://www.habitatgolf.es/en/04_club.htm |

(Expatica.com) German police said they arrested a man suspected of firing three shots from an air gun on Saturday, around a kilometre (600 yards) from where Pope Benedict XVI was due to hold mass.
No-one was injured in the incident and a suspect was arrested in his apartment, from where the shots were fired, Eckhard Deutschmann, a local police spokesman told AFP.
The shots were fired around two hours before the 84-year-old pontiff began his celebration of the mass before around 30,000 people, according to reporters on the scene. No link with the pope's visit could be immediately established.
Security for the pope's first visit to his native Germany has been extremely tight. Large parts of Berlin, Erfurt and Freiburg have been locked down for the trip amid a colossal police presence.
Local radio reported the shots were aimed at a security official. | 2019-04-21T02:13:05 | http://www.sanctepater.com/2011/09/three-air-gun-shots-fired-before-papal.html |
When Liz and Hillary first met, they were both playing college rugby. Over time, their relationship blossomed, and after a cross-country road trip, it was official: they were in love.
When Liz and Hillary first met, they were both playing college rugby. Over time, their relationship blossomed, and after a cross-country road trip, it was official: they were in love. Being incredibly active in the CrossFit community around California, it made perfect sense that Liz and Hillary would consider wholesome, healthy options for their wedding menu—the catered menu provided delicious paleo-friendly options, and the favors that they gave to their guests were walnuts, grown right at their venue (an organic walnut farm!). They had a heavy hand in doing many of the wedding tasks themselves, including the florals. It was the perfect DIY backyard affair, and despite the California heat (up to 104 degrees at one point), the newlyweds and their guests danced the night away and had a fabulous time. | 2019-04-24T18:52:08 | https://equallywed.com/liz-hillary-a-beautiful-backyard-wedding/ |
When selling an RV or rv bus conversion follow these guidelines to ensure your motorhome sale goes well. Sellers want maximum profit in the shortest time while incurring the least hassle and cost. The buyer wants the same. Everything you as the seller do, must be designed, angled, prepared, presented and directed at the BUYERS point of view in order to net you the best results.
The biggest problem encountered when you go to sell an rv is that there is a very limited market for such luxury purchases. Plus EVERY rv is custom. There is no such thing as a “stock” rv. This means you are selling a very particular item to a minuscule or sometimes nonexistent customer and most importantly you have to FIND that customer.
Disadvantages – never address the disadvantages listed unless the buyer brings it up. Be prepared if they do though. Sometimes it is best to simply reply using the least words possible. For example if the buyer says, “I heard that Bounder rv’s were better than this Itaska you’re selling” You may answer simply…”really?”. Going into a lengthy defense can often just cause the two of you to spend too much time on negative issues. Of course if the buyer’s information is mistaken feel free to gently and courteously disagree with them, present your contrary opinion or facts and move on. Visit the RV for Sale Guide website for a list of the advantages and disadvantages of selling the rv yourself verses listing it with a used rv dealer.
Service Records – Many buyers feel very wary of purchasing anything without paperwork. Provide everything you have like repair receipts, title documents, service records, consumer reports, to help sell your rv.
Pricing – the buyer doesn’t usually care how much you owe, so instead figure out the real value of the vehicle and adjust lower depending on how fast you want serious offers. Do not bring up what you paid for the rv unless it is relative to the current value and in your favor to do so. It is rare that an rv, motor coach or bus is sold by a private individual at a premium price. Today’s buyer has substantial resources available to them in determining what they feel your motorhome is worth. Be ready to discuss this with them. Be ready to substantiate everything you say when it comes to price.
Condition – Everything should work on your rv. If something is broke, either fix it or disclose it to the prospective buyer. This will validate your trustworthiness and add value to everything you say afterwards. If possible have a quote ready to show the buyer what the repair will cost if you don’t want to have it done yourself.
Get help – from a professional salesman, used rv dealer or broker if you are selling an rv for more than $30,000. Many dealers are reputable, experienced and intelligent enough to be worth every penny they may cost you in “markup”. I say “may” cost you because often they can make you money. They can often sell your rv with their markup in place and get you more than you might get on your own.
Preparation – Clean everything out of the rv before showing the rv for sale. This will be especially difficult for a full-timer living in their motorhome. Full-timers should simplify and get rid of absolutely everything that is not completely necessary for day-to-day living. Put the rest in storage. That way they can see that it is not crowded. Buyers expect that the rv they buy should be ready for them to drive away because they are used to making purchases at automobile or rv dealerships where preparation is taken seriously. This helps with first impressions, which are very important. Rarely will a vehicle be purchased without a good to excellent “first look”. Make sure the rv is perfect when the prospective buyers show up. Polish, clean, repair. If something doesn’t work, tell the buyers upfront. Give them a copy of your descriptive list with pictures. Give them a quick tour of the rv then leave the buyers alone. This is VERY important. Buyers will often be shy about snooping around but if they are really interested, and given the chance to look at everything without you staring at them, they will be more likely to turn into a real buyer.
Buyers will often come in pairs. Serious buyers will discuss features they like, and since they have traveled to see your rv, let them spend as much time as they need to look at what they are considering. Tell them where to find you for questions and tell them to TAKE THEIR TIME. Be in the “rv sell” frame of mind but not pushy.
Marketing – take 100 photographs using a digital camera. Shoot close-ups, full views, bays, storage, engine compartments, tire depth, dash close-ups, special or significant features of the rv, upholstery, floor plans, new or upgraded items. List every feature of your rv for sale. You cannot be too redundant. If your list is long, and makes sense, the buyers will read it and be impressed or glance at it and say to themselves “hey this person is thorough and probably took care of this rv” Either way you win. List how many air conditioners you have, heating units, entertainment and electronic equipment, lighting, furniture, engine, transmission, exhaust, chassis, roof type, and flooring. Pick up a brochure from the original manufacturer for your exact rv. If it’s too old for that pick up an equivalent modern version and use it to build your amenities list.
Closing the Deal – if the buyer just will not make the purchase and you have done all you can do, make sure you FIND OUT WHY! Sometimes they are just tire kickers and dreamers, or maybe they had a problem behind the scenes that came up during the negotiations. But then again maybe not. Maybe there was a real legitimate reason why they didn’t buy your rv for sale. Make them tell you truthfully what you could have done differently or what you could do to the rv to help you sell it to the next guy. This is valuable information. Do not waste the opportunity to get it from them. Sometimes it is better to call them later as they will be more candid when they aren’t standing in your front yard. | 2019-04-20T16:37:36 | https://autoindustry.wordpress.com/tag/rv-for-sale/ |
