By this time, later models of the Bf-109 had entered service, and the Bf-109T-2's were obsolete as standard fighters. They did, however, have very good short takeoff and landing characteristics, and they were used successfully in Norway until 1942 when they were replaced by FW-190's. Later, some were sent to Jagdstaffel Helgoland, where their short field performance was found to be useful. In 1944, all of the Bf-109T-2's were returned to the mainland, and in 1945, at the end of the war, only one was found intact by Allied Forces, at Augsburg, where it was probably scrapped.
According to the box art, the aircraft was operated by Jagdgruppe Dronthein, JG-77, and JG-11 in Norway, and NJG 101, at Manching, Germany. My references had few photos of the type in service, and there is no reference to the aircraft's history in the literature supplied with the kit.
There is a tremendous amount of information available on the Messerschmitt Bf-109 series online and in print. One of the more useful I have found is Thomas Hitchcock's Messerschmitt "O-Nine" Gallery, which, although published in 1973, still has good information and drawings. It has several pages devoted to the "T" models. The Squadron "In-Action" series does not mention this sub-type, so you are pretty much stuck with the Hitchcock book for information, or you can go online.
The kit provides a small sheet of drawings, which include a sprue diagram, including marked off parts that are not to be used, and 10 exploded assembly drawings. Unfortunately, there are some parts listed on the sprue diagram that are not mentioned in the assembly drawings. I still have no idea what parts #15 and #53 are. Otherwise, the drawings are useful. There is no text explaining the drawings, however. Since the kit obviously will be revised to produce a different model, it is logical that short wings for the "E" series are included on the sprues.
The box art provides a nice view of a Bf-109T-2 climbing past a low overcast, and four sets of four-view drawings showing each of the aircraft provided for on the decal sheet. These drawings are small but adequate.
This is the third kit of the Bf-109T that I am aware of. Years back, in 1980, I converted a Matchbox Bf-109E into a Bf-109T-2. In 1999, I obtained an A-Model kit of the airplane, and built it as one of the tail-hooked prototypes. Hasegawa has also produced this type in 1.72 scale, dated 2003, and it is basically their Bf-109E kit with resin wingtips and a metal seat, which replaces a rather boxy looking seat cast in the original kit. I have the kit but haven't built it. From the looks of it, it seems to be an excellent kit, and would build into a very nice model. The decals are for two aircraft. On to the Brengun kit.
The kit is molded in light grey styrene and comes on two main sprues with one clear sprue for the windows and gunsight. There are also two resin parts, which provide the carburetor air intake, machine guns, and wing radiators.
In general, molding is basically good, with a lot of recessed surface detail. The fuselage halves fit together aft of the wing, but after installing the cockpit floor, seat, and instrument panel, the forward fuselage section did not want to join properly, mainly because the cockpit parts were slightly too wide. This wasn't obvious when I glued the assembly to the fuselage side, but I think that the culprit was the firewall assembly, which was probably slightly too wide. Anyway, I managed to get the parts to fit eventually, although it took a bit of filing to get the wings to fit later. I had to use superglue on the forward fuselage, and since the upper engine cover was now slightly too narrow, I used putty to correct the error. The wings consist of three parts and assure the right dihedral angle when assembled. One of the wingtips didn't want to fit flush, and it took some trimming on the inside to get rid of a small plastic protrusion. Flaps are provided, and they are most easily placed in the down position, and that is where I placed them. They are simple enough, with no interior detail to paint. However, like most airplanes, these were probably parked most of the time with the flaps in the "up" position, as this is most common. Next time you're at the airport, look around and see how many airplanes you see parked on the flight line or in tie-downs with the flaps down. It is a common item on a checklist--"Off Runway. Flaps Up."
With the slightly wider forward fuselage, it took a bit of trimming to get the wing in the proper position with the correct dihedral, but I eventually got it right. Once on, I didn't need much putty, as the fit was right on. The tail unit attached easily, although you have to wait until after painting to install the struts. The resin radiator units are detailed, but they are difficult to see through the very narrow intakes on the radiator housings.
The canopies sections are finely detailed and fit easily into place. Nearly all of the windows are nearly square, so cutting and mounting the masking tape before painting are easy.
I chose to do the Bf-109T-2 attached to NJG-101, which called for a standard 74-75-76 paint scheme. The box art gives the suggested pattern, and after the two greys and masking, I applied the 76 underside hellblau to the rest of the model. I painted the landing gear covers and several of the small parts separately.
Once the painting was finished, I installed the landing gear, painted the exhaust stacks, and installed the prop after painting it RML 70 green.
Decals went on easily, and after a coat of Dullcote, the effect is pretty good. I did very little weathering, as these airplanes probably didn't last long in service.
This kit makes up into a fairly unusual version of the Bf-109, and as such, should be included in any collection of 1/72 scale WWII Messerschmitts. I would put the kit on a par with the A-Model kit, which I recall having no basic problems with. If you can find a Hasegawa kit, check it out, as it appears to be a better kit. I bought mine at a swap meet for $7.00, but this was a long time ago, and the price has probably gone up since then.
The Brengun is not the easiest kit to build, and I wouldn't suggest it for inexperienced modelers, but it is definitely buildable, and worth getting if you need a model of the subtype., and can't find another issue.
Thanks to Brengun and Phil Peterson for the review sample.

Two things should be noted upfront about CHRONICLE. The first is that, in itself, it’s a very good movie. The second is that it proves there are still new things to say about the genre of superpowers (“superheroes” would be a misstatement in this instance).
A “found footage” movie, CHRONICLE begins when teen loner Andrew (Dane Dehaan) obtains an old video camera and starts documenting his life, at least in part to fend off chronic violence at the hands of his alcoholic father (Michael Kelly). Andrew is more or less friends with his same-age cousin Matt (Alex Russell), who is prone to quoting philosophers and wishes Andrew would get out more. Matt is also friends with ultimate popular kid Steve (Michael B. Jordan), who is running for school president as prelude to a hoped-for career in politics. When Steve and Matt discover something very strange in an underground tunnel, they badger Andrew into coming along and videotaping their find. Soon after this evening, the tunnel entrance is blocked, but no matter – all three of the boys soon develop telekinesis (the ability to manipulate objects by thought and will), first on little things like Legos, then on big things like cars. Then they learn to fly.
Where CHRONICLE goes that this genre hasn’t gone before, at least on the big screen, is into what happens when superpowers are acquired by people who don’t hear the call of greatness. It doesn’t occur for a moment to any of the trio to zoom around trying to put out fires or thwart bank robberies, much less seek out super-villains to oppose. For awhile, the boys are bound by their awesome secret, playing pranks, impressing their peers with what seem to be magic tricks and planning no-airfare-required vacations. But then the combination of Andrew’s awful home life and his sudden popularity get to him – it’s the social equivalent of a diver surfacing too quickly, except that unlike the average diver, Andrew has the ability to express his confusion and frustration in very big ways. This leads us deftly and almost effortlessly to a climax that is absolutely earned.
Dehaan makes Andrew heartbreakingly sympathetic even when he starts to get creepy. Russell is likable and natural in portraying Matt’s easy decency.Jordan exudes the kind of charisma that makes us easily believe he’s destined to win elections. As Andrew’s inebriated father, Kelly is equal parts frightening, infuriating and pitiable.
Director Trank is sure-handed in capturing unforced human activity and usually gets the camera to be where it should without too much obvious manipulation.
The found footage format allows for a great deal, including wide shots when the main characters figure out how to float a camera. It also provides an excuse for keeping the camera at some distance from the primary figures in the climax, so that we’re not close enough to certain visual effects to require them to be pristine (which would be difficult on what looks like a fairly contained budget).
The format falters a few times – on at least one occasion, we’re wondering what camera, if any, is picking up the action. Also, as in many pseudo-documentaries, it’s not fully believable that characters would continue to run a camera at some points.
To be fair, the screenplay by Max Landis, based on the story he and Trank co-authored, tries to allow the characters to set the running camera down and forget about it frequently, but there are still some moments where it feels unlikely. Otherwise, the dialogue and characterization flows easily. There are few if any jarring words and behavior is fluid and lifelike. Even when things start going crazy, they go crazy in a way that seems a logical extension of what has come before.

Bolton council is hoping to reduce the number of road traffic accidents taking place by completing new roadworks in a blackspot for such incidents.
According to the Bolton News, the local authority - which is led by councillor Cliff Morris - has begun work to make the junction of Derby Street, Fletcher Street and University Way safer.
During this operation - which is expected to take around eight weeks to carry out and will cost around £275,000 - the road surface will be re-laid, while new traffic lights and pedestrian crossings will also be installed.
A spokesman for the council told the news source that efforts will be made to minimise the disruption this work will cause and lane closures will be in place at times while the resurfacing is completed.
Over the last three years, 19 people have been injured in a total of 16 road traffic accidents at the junction.

Australian researchers have developed a new way to recycle tires!
Deakin University's Institute for Technology Research and Innovation partnered with VR TEK Global to create the revolutionary process. Currently, the method for handling old tires relies on either shredding and burying them in landfills, burning them or recycling them into low-quality materials that don't have much use.
“Our process does not rely on chemicals and uses less power—making it more environmentally friendly. It also results in high quality ingredients that can replace virgin and synthetic rubbers in the manufacture of products such as new tyres [sic], car parts, insulation materials, conveyor belts and asphalt additive for roads,” Deakin research engineer Chris Skourtis told the news source.
About 1 billion tires each year are discarded worldwide, most of which end up in landfills. These tires are known to allow harmful chemicals to seep into the environment, as well as cause fires and provide breeding grounds for mosquitoes and rats.
The new way of recycling tires involves a mechanical method which reverses the chemical process used to create them, transforming the materials into recyclable rubber powder. Prior to this innovation, the method used to reverse the chemical process involved harmful chemicals.
The researchers have also developed a way to use ozone gas to make the rubber powder more easily compatible with other materials. The technology is expected to go into commercial operation in 2012, and hopefully other countries will pick up on the trend and eliminate the need for tires to take up space and create environmental problems in landfills.

Does legalization instigate or reduce crime? The evidence is already in. In fact, in every jurisdiction where at least medical cannabis has been legalized, there has been a dramatic drop in all kinds of crime. So why is Trump's Justice Department claiming otherwise?
It is impossible not to have heard one of the greatest canards behind the modern war on drugs. Legalization causes all sorts of supposed societal ills. That includes the worn stereotype that “drugs cause crime.” In fact, this idea specifically was behind the original crusade to get the Controlled Substances Act of 1970 passed in the first place.
This “law and order” approach became the subsequent mantra of the day and the ubiquitous drug policy of every subsequent American administration. It also spread overseas. The “War on Drugs” was launched globally.
By the late 1990’s, it became very apparent this approach had significant casualties. This included a strong connection between being non-white and being prosecuted under aggressive drug laws. Particularly in the United States.
At the beginning of the new century, the debate finally began to change. Why? Fighting a massive heroin epidemic, Portugal decided to do something different. In 2001, the country fully decriminalized all drugs. By doing so, the drug-use issue was removed from the law enforcement agenda. Instead, it was re-defined as a matter of public health. Addiction began to plummet. The trend has continued to this very day.
Even more interesting? Crime rates fell too. The same trend can be observed in “legal” American states like Colorado, where the passing of recreational cannabis has been largely successful.
As of 2014, this issue began to gain more traction as legalization kicked up a notch. And the statistics blew the lid off conventional wisdom. In fact, not only did violent crime rates drop in Colorado after legalization, the trend was subsequently observed in all other legalizing states. It has also been seen in Canada. This is a big reason that the country decided to move forward on recreational reform too.
And as of 2014, researchers at the University of Texas also published even more interesting findings. Medical marijuana legalization specifically had a dramatic impact on reducing crime rates.
Today, in the US and in Europe, this theory has now seen multiple confirmations. Legalization - even if “just” medical at first - is a tactic to reduce the power and value of the black market. From Spain to the Netherlands, Germany to Switzerland. Even Turkey just legalized medical grow operations in a clear political statement to limit black market traffic.
In Central and South America, too, this is an increasingly common conversation. More and more countries are stepping into the legalization camp. And their biggest and first reason is very clear: it cuts the power of the cartels.
Therefore, it is perfectly natural with things going in the right direction, to find a bump in the road. In other words, there is always going to be backlash.
Despite amazing advances over the last decade in particular, the legalization battle is not over. And that includes a debate about the connection between cannabis and crime.
In Europe, this agenda is being set by three different conversations. There are “regional,” if not statewide experiments with full rec. See Spain. See Holland. Both are touted as markets that undercut the black market. Greece, no matter which direction it ultimately goes, will probably fall into a similar camp. The country is being given tacit support internationally on their decision to legalize. The reason is very simple; it is also purely economic.
On the other hand, there is a more nuanced discussion on the table too. Especially in “medical only” countries. These now include Germany, Turkey, the Czech Republic, Croatia, and Poland. They are all tackling this as more of a “public health” than crime issue now. Their first focus, beyond medical efficacy, is indeed crime. How effective a “medical only” approach will be is subject to discussion. As is the case right now in places like Israel. There, they have not only decriminalized cannabis earlier in the year, but now plan to export it.
The third conversation is now underway in Switzerland. This model is also designed to destroy black market operations. The legal, low-THC market is taking off there as a result. And all those legal sales are taxed at considerable benefit to the Swiss treasury, instead of the black market, terrorism, and crime.
How fast legalization will develop is a subject on the agenda for legislators across the European continent.
WHY IS THE UNITED STATES BACKTRACKING?
At present, fundamental questions appear to be yet unanswered with hard data. Or at least, that is the opinion of the current Trump administration, if not the Jeff Sessions-run Department of Justice.
Rumblings of a showdown between the DOJ and the establishing pot biz have been mounting. Since last November at least. This February, Sessions specifically claimed that legalizing marijuana causes violent crime with no data to back this up. This is just one more disturbing development for the already stigmatised industry.
This time, however, is unlike previous generations and campaigns. There has been a massive sea change. Whole countries are moving forward with legalization efforts right now.
And even in the United States, there is clear and direct evidence that legalization has a real-world impact on crime. This includes general crime and other stats. In “Going to pot? The impact of dispensary closures on crime,” USC Marshall School of Business and UC Irvine researchers found dramatic evidence that when governments force dispensaries to close, local crime rates shoot up.
Despite evidence that the United States is headed in the right direction, the DOJ wants to go backwards. What gives?
The lesson from all of this? Marijuana legalization actually does reduce violent crime. That includes non-drug related crime too. Like murder. It also performs other functions that remove criminality from the equation. This starts with creating a regulated market that pays taxes, instead of sequestering those profits for nefarious purposes.
There are, however, many who have different political agendas. In the Trump administration right now, this is also an issue that is closely tied to blatant racism.
It is for exactly such reasons that minority business owners within the cannabis industry are starting to take a stand. In fact, this issue has begun to boil over in California already. Minority ganjapreneurs have started a boycott on an upcoming business expo in LA. Why? Roger Stone, a top Republican political operative has been invited to give the keynote.
Despite his long pro-pot stance, his other political leanings are what sparked the ire. Including his involvement in getting Donald Trump into the White House. Not to mention Jeff Sessions’ installation at Justice.
While it is unlikely that the Trump DOJ is going to get any friendlier, one thing is certain. Within the cannabis industry itself, the data is there to prove the claim. Not to mention overwhelming support from consumers and even many legislators. The industry itself is the best antidote to cartels and other drug-related crimes.
And this time, for the first time, the industry is also well primed to defend itself.

Accepted name: Dendrochilum geesinkii J.J.Wood in J.J.Wood & P.J.Cribb, Check-list Orchids Borneo: 175 (1994).
Within Kalimantan this species has been collected at Apo Kayan on the base of Mount Tapa Sia between Long Bawan and the Panado hill forest.
Within Sarawak this species has been collected in the Limbang District on the route to Batu Lawi.
The habitat has been described as hill forest on sandstone and mixed hill dipterocarp forest along a ridge top (Wood 2001).
The pseudobulbs cluster together on a rhizome that can grow to 6cm long; the pseudobulbs are spaced 0.5-0.6cm apart. The pseudobulbs are shaped cylindrical or narrowly oblong and measure 6.0-9.0cm long and 0.6-1.0cm in diameter. The pseudobulbs are covered by 3 cataphylls while they are growing. The cataphylls disintegrate into fibres as the pseudobulbs mature. The leaves are petiolate; the petiole measures 1.5-2.5cm long. The leaf blades are shaped oblong-elliptic, ligulate and have obtuse and mucronate to subacute apices. The leaf blades measure 11.5-22.0cm long and 1.4-2.2cm wide. The leaf blades are coriaceous and have 7 distinct nerves along their length.
The inflorescence is synanthous and appears when the leaves have almost fully expanded. The peduncle is erect to gently curved and measures 13-17cm long. The rachis is arching and measures 20-23cm long. The rachis is quadrangular in cross-section. The flowers alternate distichously and are spaced 1.8-2.0mm apart. There is one non floriferous bract at the base of the rachis.
The flowers are a pale green colour (Wood 2001). The dorsal sepal is shaped narrowly triangular and has an acuminate apex. The dorsal sepal measures 6.0mm long and 1.0mm wide. The dorsal sepal is 3-veined and has an entire margin. The lateral sepals are shaped narrowly-elliptic, subfalcate and have acute apices. The lateral sepals measure 5.5mm long and 1.0mm wide. The lateral sepals are 3-veined and have entire margins. The petals are shaped linear to narrowly elliptic, subfalcate and have acute apices. The petals measure 5.0mm long and 0.8mm wide. The petals are 3-veined and have minutely erose margins. The labellum is 3-nerved and obscurely 3-lobed. The labellum measures 3.8-4.0mm long and 2.0mm wide. The side lobes are auriculate and tooth like. The mid-lobe is papillose, shaped oblong-elliptic and has an obtuse apex. The margins of the mid-lobe are irregular. There are three keels than terminate half way along the mid-lobe. The keels are joined at the base of the labellum by a transverse ridge. The third keel is an elevated median nerve that joins the keels basally to form an M shape. The column is slightly incurved and measures 2.0mm long. The column foot is prominent. The apical hood is elongated, shaped oblong and has an obscurely tri-lobed apex. The stelidia grow upwards from the middle of the column and exceed the column apex. The stelidia are shaped narrowly triangular and have obtuse to acute apices.
Flowering plants have been collected during July and August.
Jeffrey Wood wrote that this species is related to Dendrochilum crassifolium but differs by its longer pseudobulbs, slightly smaller flowers, auriculate side lobes and stelidia that exceed the column apex (Wood 2001).
The epithet refers to the late Rob Geesink of the National Herbarium in the Netherlands (Wood 1997).

We’ve written about digital signage best practices before, but focused mainly on passive content. Interactive digital signage is a fancy way of saying touchscreens. Many of the best practices from passive content apply to interactive but there are a few important pieces that you need to know about when it comes to interactive content.
What Is Interactive Digital Signage Used For?
Small touch screens like tablets or more commercial displays are great for small kiosks or jobs like collecting data. If you’re a coffee shop, foundation, school or retailer having a small touchscreen near the point of sale or a space where people are waiting is great for collecting phone numbers or email addresses.
Directories, information displays, job boards, yearbooks and guestbooks are all great content for medium sized touch displays. These displays come in all shapes and sizes, everything from normal displays with a touch overlay to ruggedized displays meant for constant use in high traffic areas. The display you select should be based on on where you will be placing it.
Interactive Job Board at the University of South Alabama Mitchell College of Business. This display allows students to see upcoming internship and full time employment opportunities.
If you are installing a directory in the entrance of your office, then a touch screen with an overlay would be a good choice. If you’re installing an information display in the entrance or atrium of a building on campus, then a more rugged kiosk would probably be the better choice.
Large WOW inducing displays are perfect for donor walls, halls of fame and Marketwalls. When you want to amaze your audience or recognize performance in a big way, going with big touch screen displays is the way to go. Arranging multiple large touch screen displays in the room to form a video wall or artistic experience is a great way to make a big impact and allow multiple guests to interact at one time.
7 82” Samsung displays with touch screen overlays at Indiana University. These displays allow multiple guests to view donors and their stories.
Content will always depend on the use case but, as a general rule of thumb, less is more. Just because it’s a touch screen and it can have ten pages does not mean it should. One way we help clients decide what to show is by writing a list of all the possible content the various stakeholders would like to show, then ordering it by what is most important.
We can use the job board example from above and do a quick exercise.
Alright, now that we have our list of content it’s time to review the list and take into consideration a few factors.
Goals: The goal of this installation is to help students find jobs and to help employers connect with talent.
Audience: The audience of this display will be primarily university students.
Location: Point of wait as well as transit depending on the time of day.
After reviewing these factors and the list above you can probably start to see where we’re going with this. Items like news, weather, a contact page, and student success stories don’t help us achieve the goals. However, an argument can be made that showing events and club activities will help achieve the goal. For example promoting recruiting events or presentations by industry professionals at club events.
After reviewing the list it was decided that other passive displays in the building would do a better job of promoting the events and club activities. This leaves us with our top two pieces of content, internship and full time employment opportunities.
Now that we have the categories of content it’s time to get into the specifics. We’ll be showing two categories of job postings, each of those categories will require specific pieces of content. For example with an internship you need to know when it’s taking place and whether it’s a summer co-op or a fall co-op, whereas with full time employment that’s not an important detail.
By going through this sort of exercise you can determine exactly what content should be shown to best accomplish the goal of the display.
We’ve written numerous times about design principles and digital signage design so we won’t go too in-depth here but we’ll touch on it. Interactive design should follow many of the same principles as passive design but with a few tweaks.
Text should use legible fonts.
Paragraph and body text should not go all the way across the screen otherwise the person using the touchscreen will need to move back to read it.
Keep it brief, try to use as few words as possible to get your message across. A great tool to cut down your text is the Hemingway App.
The layout should be simple to navigate and understand. Interactive digital signage design is similar to web or app design. Following common layout standards, symbols and user flows makes it so that anyone can easily use the display.
One of the biggest mistakes we see clients make is asking for a design that features images and graphics heavily but then having poor quality images or very few images. If you are building a hall of fame and want to feature photos of athletes make sure you have lots of high quality photos. If you don’t, make sure you let the designer know and they can work with you to create a design that looks great and doesn’t require great quality images and graphics.
Another item to take into consideration are image and the file sizes. Images and videos played on a 1920x1080px display don’t need to be 5000x5000px. Where possible, images should be resized so that they fit perfectly and optimized using a lossless image optimization tool so they load quickly (we use ImageOptim).
Putting together all of the above pieces to create a coherent interactive installation will help ensure your project is successful. It is all these pieces that make up a great user experience.

Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake came to the nation's capital Wednesday to make a pitch for what big-city leaders want to see from the federal government — and the next president.
But when her appearance at the National Press Club was opened for questions, she wound up spending much of her time addressing the unrest that shook Baltimore in April, and how she handled it.
Rawlings-Blake, who was in Washington in her capacity as president of the U.S. Conference of Mayors, said the city was not as prepared as it should have been for the riots that erupted on the day Freddie Gray was buried. She said her administration is now taking additional steps to ready itself ahead of the trials of the six police officers charged in his arrest and death.
"I don't think anyone would have expected the unrest to unfold in the way that it did," Rawlings-Blake said. "What it did give us was an opportunity to strengthen our response."
Rawlings-Blake, who announced last month that she would not seek re-election next year, will remain the president of the mayors' conference until June. She hosted a bipartisan delegation of mayors in Baltimore over the weekend working on a "call to action" the group hopes will influence the presidential race.
Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake outlined four broad goals Monday for her remaining 15 months in office, including financing $136 million in improvements for recreation centers and pools and ensuring that the $1 billion school construction plan is executed correctly.
But as she tries to carry that message forward, some predict she will face a challenge through the rest of her tenure: how to focus the conversation on the issues she wants to talk about — solutions to the urban ills that Gray's death laid bare — when much of her audience wants to hear about the unrest itself.
Todd Eberly, an associate professor of political science at St. Mary's College of Maryland, says the riots, arson and looting that drew international attention have impaired Rawlings-Blake's ability to be an effective messenger for the nation's mayors.
"The unfortunate reality is that her handling of the riots is going to be a distraction from a lot of the other topics she wants to talk about," Eberly said. "It's an unfortunate circumstance because she obviously wants to be an advocate for mayors and wants to be an advocate for cities."
Mental health, mass shootings, infrastructure, and police safety and accountability are among the most pressing issues that need to be addressed by the presidential candidates, according to a nonpartisan group of mayors led by Baltimore's Stephanie Rawlings-Blake.
David Lublin, a professor of government at American University, said Congress is so polarized that the mayors' plans are unlikely to gain traction — no matter who is delivering it.
"You could have the pope himself come and present their agenda, and the Republican Congress would not pass it," he said.
A spokesman for Rawlings-Blake said he disagreed that the mayor's decision not to run for re-election or the unrest in Baltimore limits her effectiveness as a leader.
"As she has always done, the mayor will do what she thinks is right for the citizens of Baltimore and, in her role for the U.S. Conference of Mayors, she will do what she thinks is right for people who live in cities across the United States," spokesman Howard Libit said. "In some sense, she will be freed from the constant scrutiny of her actions being viewed through the lens of a re-election campaign."
Lublin said the unrest in Baltimore might "undermine" Rawlings-Blake's effectiveness at a national level, but it could also be useful.
"Crisis is another word for opportunity," he said. "She can use the events in Baltimore to sell the agenda. She could say, 'Look, we really need to address poverty in the cities.'"
Rawlings-Blake said there is direct connection between the riots and underlying challenges. She spent much of her address Wednesday focused on poverty, housing, unemployment and relations between the community and their police department.
Cities, she said, have to be at the center of the solutions to many of those problems.
Rawlings-Blake said that the mayors' conference, which represents cities with a population of 30,000 or more, is putting the final touches on an agenda that members want the presidential candidates to address as they crisscross the country in search of votes.
She said it has been difficult to get Democrats and Republicans in the group to come together around a common set of ideas, but there is broad consensus about increasing federal investment in infrastructure, homeland security and affordable housing, and addressing what she described as the nation's broken immigration system.
The mayor, who spent much of Wednesday meeting with U.S. Justice Department officials about the spike in crime in many cities, was also critical of Congress, which has struggled to pass even basic funding measures in recent years.
Lawmakers last week approved a short-term spending bill that will keep the government running only until Dec. 11. Washington is also approaching another showdown over the federal debt ceiling.
"Gridlock strangles Washington, and the consequences of that gridlock, they're passed on to cities," Rawlings-Blake said. "That gridlock is strangling the future of our country."
The mayor was criticized, both inside the government and out, for what some saw as a sluggish response to the mayhem that broke out on April 27. Her supporters have countered that the unrest was contained to a single day and resulted in no fatalities.
Rawlings-Blake said the city has increased police training and emergency communications in preparation for any unrest that might accompany the trials of the police officers.
"Baltimore was not as prepared as it should have been, and certainly could have been for the unrest," she said.
But Rawlings-Blake said there are no easy solutions to the challenges of urban poverty.
"None of this was created overnight," she said. "When you have years of neglect and you have years of abandonment, the fix will take years as well."
Rawlings-Blake was asked about the administration's relationship with the Fraternal Order of Police, which has been particularly sour in recent months.
The mayor responded by saying she tried to nudge union leaders toward reform, but that they resisted the effort.
"I don't know, based on the rhetoric they've been spewing in Baltimore, who would want the endorsement of the FOP," Rawlings-Blake said. "I think the actions of our police union, and many across the country, have really devalued the power of that union."
Lt. Gene Ryan, president of the Fraternal Order of Police, said that union has discussed many reforms but has not felt as though it had a partner at City Hall.
"I am not clear why Mayor Rawlings-Blake continues to pick fights with public safety," Ryan said in a statement. "She seems to be distorted in her way of thinking as to what has actually occurred during her term."

Over time, the breech seal can become worn, decreasing the overall efficiency of your rifle including a decrease in velocity.
Replacement breech seals are inexpensive and commonly available and can dramatically increase your air rifle’s performance.
Any air rifle that has a leather breech seal/ O Ring, this is a semi-universal item.
I have old model 35 air rifle so can I use this breech seal ?

News that Lydia Ko had ditched Guy Wilson, her coach of 11 years who taught her the game and brought her to No. 4 in the World Rankings, for David Leadbetter made us think of a post we did back in July, when Lee Westwood hired Sean Foley as his swing coach.
__Phil Mickelson and Ernie Els to Butch Harmon__It was all very cordial when Mickelson and Els both left their respective coaches, Rick Smith and David Leadbetter, for Butch. Both felt they needed a change as their careers enter their final stage and were both rewarded: each winning majors under their new coach.__Aaron Baddeley from Mike Plummer and Andy Bennett__When the Stack & Tilt method burst onto the scene, Aaron Baddeley was the face of it. He won his first and second PGA Tour events in consecutive years using the swing and broke into the top 20 in the world. But after shooting 80 in the final round of the 2007 U.S. Open -- he entered the day with the lead -- Baddeley ditched the instructors and has won only once since.

The truth is on it's way.
and it's the end of our story.
The sky is watching me.
Don't want to see it weep.
All the flowers start to reek.
I guess I'm just another freak.
my life wont be the same.
all feel twisted in a way.
I hope you're feeling good.
Not that I think you should.
depths that push me underground.
no-one knows, what's to come and where to go.
and what number will it show.

(CBS News) The science world is abuzz about an announcement from the European Organization for Nuclear Research, also known as CERN, concerning the Higgs boson - informally called the "god particle." The European collective plans to announce their latest data concerning this elusive particle, which has never been directly observed and may not even exist. But what is a Higgs boson? One helpful cartoon explains.
NASA, which featured this educational cartoon on their website, offers some detail: "The term boson refers to a type of fundamental particle with similarities to the photon, while Higgs refers to Peter Higgs, a physicist who among others published research predicting the mechanism through which such a particle might act. The above animated cartoon explains in humorous but impressive detail why the Higgs boson is expected, and one method that the Large Hadron Collider is using to find it."
The video itself comes from "PHD Comics" - a web series started by Jorge Cham, a cartoonist and roboticist, that follows the lives of several graduate students. The knowledgeable voice explaining this mysterious "god particle" is physicist Daniel Whiteson, a scientist at CERN.
So did you learn something? Perhaps the biggest take-away from this informative, entertaining video is just how excited the science community is to be moving so close to what could be a momentous discovery.
CERN is expected to announce their formal findings concerning the Higgs Boson on Wednesday, July 4th.

Announcements galore Apple today introduced a slew of new hardware products that will undoubtedly keep Apple retail stores buzzing in the weeks to come. From a new iPad Air to an impressive new 27-inch iMac with a Retina Display, Apple fans in search of new hardware will have no shortage of products to choose from. On top of that, Apple on Thursday also made a number of notable software announcements. That said, here is a look at the most important hardware and software announcements that Apple delivered during its special media event last week.
Apple Pay goes live on October 20 Apple Pay may very well go on to revolutionize how we make payments. Not only is the service extremely secure, it's also exceedingly simple to use. Yesterday, Apple announced that its highly anticipated mobile payments platform will go live on Monday, October 20.
New iPad Air 2 Apple yesterday announced the next-gen model, the iPad Air 2. Impressively, the new iPad Air is even thinner than the original and comes with a less reflective display. Other features include a blazing-fast A8X processor, Touch ID, an enhanced iSight camera capable of taking 1080p HD video and 43-megapixel panoramas, faster Wi-Fi and LTE speeds, and the ability to make in-app mobile purchases via Apple Pay.
27-inch iMac with Retina Display If there was ever a product to leave video and photo professionals drooling, this is the one. Apple's new 27-inch iMac features a 5K Retina Display sporting a 5210x2880 pixel display. That's approximately 14.7 million pixels, enough for Apple to confidently call it the "world's highest-resolution display." The new iMac is impressively thin and uses less energy than its predecessor, an impressive feat given the machine's powerful and jaw-dropping display.
OS X Yosemite now available for free OS X Yosemite, Apple's next-gen desktop OS, is now available as a free download via the Mac App Store. OS X Yosemite delivers a host of new features, from continuity features like Handoff to improved Safari performance and a whole lot more.
iOS 8.1 available on Monday iOS 8.1, Apple's first major update to iOS 8, will be available for download this coming Monday. Notably, the update will deliver support for Apple Pay, which, not coincidentally, goes live that same day. The release promises to deliver a host of performance improvements along with the return of the Camera Roll, which Apple curiously removed from the initial version of iOS 8.
Apple's new iMac is blazing fast In addition to an incredible and groundbreaking new display, Apple has jam packed its new 27-inch iMac with impressive internals. A 1TB fusion drive and 8GB of RAM now come standard. Further, the machine comes equipped with a base-level 3.5GHz Intel i5 processor. Users hoping for even more speed can upgrade to a 4GHz i7 Intel processor. This high-tech machine won't come cheap, though. The starting price point checks in at $2,499. While expensive, it's still a good deal for that type of display.
WatchKit WatchKit, the SDK for developers to create Apple Watch apps, will be rolled out next month. Apple still doesn't have a firm release date for the Apple Watch, but the impending release of WatchKit is a good indication that the release date will, as promised, fall sometime in early 2015.
iPad Air 2’s impressive new camera capabilities In addition to being exceedingly fast, the iPad 2 camera has seriously improved from the previous version. The new iSight camera can take burst mode photos, time lapse video, and slow-mo video as well. What's more, the new FaceTime camera lets in 80% more light, features improved face detection, and supports HDR video.
iPhone 6 continues to set sales records With the iPhone 6 slated to go on sale in China this Friday, Tim Cook noted that the iPhone 6 has already set a new 30-day order record, putting the iPhone 6 on pace to be Apple's most popular and successful model to date. While Cook didn't divulge any specific numbers, we'll have more detailed iPhone sales information once Apple reports its earnings for the quarter gone by next Monday.
iPad Mini 3 now has Touch ID Apple didn't spend too much time talking about the iPad Mini 3, aside from mentioning that the iPad Mini overall has an impressive 100% customer satisfaction ratio. The lone enhancement to the iPad Mini 3 is that Apple's diminutive tablet now comes with Touch ID. A small but still noteworthy upgrade.
iPad Air 2 features an Apple SIM card with multi-carrier support Apple's new iPad Air 2 comes equipped with an Apple SIM card. This is a great addition as it allows users to switch data plans between AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile depending on which carrier happens to have the best cellular plan at the moment. Apple's website reads, "The Apple SIM gives you the flexibility to choose from a variety of short-term plans from select carriers in the U.S and UK right on your iPad."
Apple Pay has more retail and banking support With Apple Pay set to go live on October 20, Apple announced that it has partnered with a number of additional retailers. Apple also announced that mobile apps Lyft, Airbnb, and OpenTable, among others, have added built-in support for Apple Pay. Just as important, Apple announced that 500 more banks have signed on to support Apple Pay in the coming months.
New Mac Minis It's been an insanely long time since Apple last updated the Mac Mini, over two years in fact. Thankfully, that all changed yesterday when Apple announced a brand new Mac Mini featuring 4th-gen Intel processors, bolstered graphics performance, faster Wi-Fi, two Thuderbolt 2 ports, and more. Priced at $499, the newest Mac Mini is available for order today.
Lowest-cost iPad will remain available Apple still has plans to sell the original iPad Air along with both the iPad Mini 1 and iPad Mini 2. Notably, the original iPad Mini will be available for just $249, making it the cheapest iPad model Apple has ever made available for sale.
Apple has sold 225 million iPads so far Though growth has slowed a bit lately, iPad sales remain strong. Tim Cook announced today that iPad sales thus far have topped 225 million units. Moreover, Apple boasted that it shipped more iPads last year than any other manufacturer shipped PCs.
iWork available for free Apple's latest version of iWork, which includes new versions of Pages, Keynote, and Numbers, is now available as a free download from the Mac App Store.

The course “Culture and Identity” explores different approaches to those two key concepts in cultural anthropology and related disciplines. The seminar is devoted to in-depth reading and discussing texts, which the lecture introduces into. The course will thus not only familiarize the participants with the concepts as such, but present them in a contextualizing and comparative, cross-disciplinary perspective. The interrelation between the two concepts shall be conveyed, as it is within social and cultural frames of references, that identities are being formed. Lecture and seminarswill draw attention to the concept of culture as social practice, to the social construction of identity and to the multiplicity of identity in modern society will look into the dynamic processes of cultural practice and identity formation through processes of identification, distinction and stereotyping, particularly within national, ethnicor social/class frames of references. In order to gain a deeper understanding of those dynamics, of discourses on multiculturalism, culture conflicts&clashes of cultural identities, as well as of concepts dwelling on the fluidity and hybridity of identity constructions, the migration experience will in addition be referred to.

An agency consists of 15 -20 artists. The artists chosen should not do work that is in competition with each other. Criteria for choosing works will vary depending on the goals of the group. This is often determined by the founding members or the agent. There should be a board of 3 members who co-ordinate with the agent. The pay for the agent from artist commissions on sales and so the agent should have alternative means of income for at least a start up period. The artists in the group can be asked to help with any of the tasks of which they are capable. There is an initial payment from each artist to join the group which covers the cost of preparing promotion material for that artist. Artists are then asked to contribute a yearly fee if necessary to cover running cost.

Pam’s Pictorama (Family) Photo Post: For those of you who tuned in yesterday for my post All in the Family (which can be found here) this is a companion post. I apologize for the length, but rambling family history is a hard tale to tell in a brief and cogent way.
Rose, the bride, was the oldest, my grandmother Ann was a middle-ish child, the third of five and she appears to be in her late teens in this wedding photo. (She is on the end of the right side of the photo, holding a large bouquet of flowers, the youngest sibling, my great-aunt Margaret, or Mickey, is standing below her.) There are two brothers and they have not been identified for me, but I would guess that the older one, Phil, is in the white gloves and seated next to that absolute babe holding a bouquet and wearing a tiara, who I am lead to believe was the maid of honor. Ben, the younger brother, is probably standing next to my aunt Mickey. Phil dies young, at 36. I’m not sure Ben fared much better – this is the heart disease curse for that part of the family at work.
As I have mentioned, aside from my grandfather, Frank Wheeling, who worked at Bendex and repaired outboard motors for a living (he was an epic tinkerer and could fix or build anything), all the men in the family, including those who married in and ultimately their sons, worked in the family bar. The women were tasked with cooking of course. My great-grandmother would have lead that effort (see my post about the blue plate special here) and in addition to the Monday-Saturday buffet, I learned recently that on Sunday, when the bar was closed, she cooked an additional midday meal that the regulars at the bar could subscribe to. Her daughters obviously helped with the endless cooking and learned at her knee. My grandmother was good with numbers and grew up to keep the books for the bar, but learned her cooking lessons well too. The bar still exists as a restaurant/bar on the site today, as far as I know. I have never been inside, but walked by one afternoon several years ago with my father.
My memory of Ro was being at her house late in her life. She lived in the upstairs of a small house with her daughter in-law and granddaughter in residence downstairs, retired from the last of her positions, but commandeering her younger sisters to execute in tandem the most extraordinary holiday meals. Quite literally, the card tables set up in a line in the living room of the apartment groaned, and I believe I remember the long strands of fresh pasta drying on racks all over the apartment prior to the cooking.
When I entered my own nascent professional cooking career after college, I wondered if those shared genes were at work. I had done stints waitressing and as a short order cook, but even with that wasn’t entirely prepared for the overwhelming physical grind of that work. I came away with an even greater respect for Ro, and the other Cittadino women, who for several generations churned out those meals in addition to feeding their families – and the occasional festivity like the wedding feast shown yesterday.
The same cousin who unearthed these photos (Patti, granddaughter of Rose) has discovered a cache of her recipes. I look forward to going through them and hope in particular to find the recipe for certain Christmas cookies and bread. I am told the original recipe for Poor Man’s cake is also there – I am anxious to compare it to my recent recreation project. (The recent post devoted to that can be found here, called Having Your Cake.) Many of the recipes will sadly be of less interest to me – we are largely vegetarian here at Deitch Studio and Pictorama, and our consumption of pastry is modest. Yet I will be pleased to see them, in her handwriting, and indulge in a few.
Rose seated, the era I remember her from, shown with her daughter in-law Grace.

Thousands of Central American migrants fleeing poverty and violence packed a bridge connecting Guatemala and Mexico in sweltering heat Saturday as part of a politically charged, U.S.-bound caravan.
At one point, several dozen migrants trying to make their way north sang the Honduran national anthem on the edge of the muddy Suchiate River between Tecun Uman, Guatemala, and Tapachula, Mexico.
Their journey continued one day after defiant caravan members rushed passed border gates only to be stopped by rows of Mexican riot police who dispersed tear gas and smoke canisters into the crowds.
The slow procession north has led President Donald Trump to threaten to cut aid to Central American nations and to send troops to the U.S. border if Mexico failed to stop the surge.
"Our message is we're not criminals," Honduran migrant Orlean Herrera said. "We're coming over here because we need a better life. That's why we're here."
By Saturday morning, the bridge was teeming with men, women, teenagers and children.
Mexican authorities starting Friday were allowing a trickle of migrants, starting with women and children, to pass through gates near the bridge to Tapachula, where they boarded buses for refugee camps.
Others, chanting and cheering, pushed through or climbed over a steel gate Friday until riot police repelled them with tear gas and smoke canisters. Video showed coughing and weeping migrants collapsed on the bridge. Several police and an undetermined number of migrants were injured.
It was unclear how many migrants would cross the border and how long that process would take. Mexican authorities have said they'd allow migrants to enter the country if they have valid visas or meet other requirements.
The caravan formed last Saturday in San Pedro Sula, Honduras, and arrived Monday in Guatemala. Migrants in the group told CNN en Español they were bound for the United States, seeking work and fleeing political corruption and violence.
Leaders throughout the region have publicly urged them for days to turn back.
Four Mexican police officers were injured in the standoff at the Mexican border, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Friday.
Speaking to reporters on a tarmac in Mexico City, where he'd been meeting with leaders about the caravan and other matters, Pompeo accused the caravan of using women and children "as shields as they make their way through."
"This is an organized effort to come through and violate the sovereignty of Mexico," Pompeo said. "We're prepared to do all that we can to support the decisions that Mexico makes about how they're going to address this very serious and important issue to their country."
Pompeo said he had a "good conversation" with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto and that the two countries are jointly focused on the caravan issue, but "the Mexican government is making all the decisions on how to address this."
"They are fully engaged. They sent 500 'federales' down to the southern border," Pompeo said, noting that he wanted to "express his sympathy" for the injured officers.
"That's evidence of what this really is," he said.
Peña Nieto called the confrontation a "unique incident," saying the migrants did not follow the protocols that Mexican immigration officials put in place in anticipation of the caravan. He added that some migrants "assaulted and even injured" a number of unarmed members of the Mexican police before they could contain the violence.
"Mexico won't allow anyone entering its territory in an erratic way and much less a violent way," he said Friday night in a video statement released on Twitter.
Peña Nieto said Mexican officials would continue welcoming those traveling with the migrant caravan despite Friday's incident.
"Mexico maintains its willingness to support migrants who decide to enter our country while respecting our laws," he said.
Trump, who's been criticizing the caravan with fiery tweets all week, reiterated his threat Friday that if Mexico doesn't stop the migrants, he'll take more drastic action.
"If that doesn't work out, we're calling up the military, not the Guard, we're calling up the military, and we're going to have the military stationed," Trump said. "They're not coming into this country. They might as well turn back."
Trump has also threatened to cut foreign aid to Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador.
Members of the caravan gathered Friday morning in the border city of Tecun Uman. They waited in sweltering heat -- with temperatures in the mid-80s and 70% humidity -- for hours for others to arrive, packing streets for blocks on end.
They streamed through gates on the Guatemalan side of the border around noon Friday (2 p.m. ET), cheering and chanting as they marched. Celebratory air horns blared as they headed toward Mexico's port of entry.
When they reached a padlocked steel fence near the Mexican side of the bridge, the sheer number of migrants allowed them to break through.
Mexican police pushed them back. Hundreds of Mexican Federal Police sealed the border as drones and helicopters hovered above the crowd.
At least a dozen migrants jumped into the river. It wasn't known whether they were trying to swim across to the Mexican side of border, go back to Guatemala or just get relief from the crowds.
Some of the migrants on the bridge told CNN they joined the caravan because they were desperate for work and had no other choice.
Mexican officials have said people seeking asylum will be processed at Mexico's southern border. But it's unclear what will happen next.
Will they reach the U.S. border?
Mexican authorities haven't said whether anyone from the caravan will be permitted to travel to the U.S. border.
This appears to be a shift from previous policies, in which humanitarian or transit visas were issued and migrants were given the option of continuing their journey north if they didn't want to seek asylum in Mexico.
This spring, when another caravan of Central American migrants crossed into Mexico, such policies allowed that group to make it to the U.S. border.
This caravan's formation comes just weeks before high-stakes midterm elections in the United States, in which many Republican candidates have been echoing the President's messaging about boosting border security and cracking down on illegal immigration.
Trump has pointed to the caravan as a key issue in the upcoming elections, describing the group's approach as an assault on the U.S. border. Immigrant rights advocates have accused his administration of trying to create a crisis to motivate his voter base.
Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez arrived Saturday in Guatemala to meet with his counterpart, Jimmy Morales, to work on "implementing a strategy and logistics for the return of Honduran migrants," Hernandez said on Twitter.
Hernandez also sought permission from Guatemala to send Civil Protection personnel to assist Honduran migrants inside Guatemala on Friday, according to several posts on his official Twitter account.
In addition, Hernandez requested authorization to "hire ground transportation for those wishing to return, even airlifting special cases of women, children, the elderly and sick," he said, thanking the Guatemalan government for "all the attention given to our Honduran brothers."

Read the terms & condtitions carefully to avoid any confusion about our product.
Healthcare Services. All of the Treating Providers who deliver Services through InstaCare are independent professionals solely responsible for the services each provides to you. InstaCare does not practice medicine or any other licensed profession, and does not interfere with the practice of medicine or any other licensed profession by Treating Providers, each of whom is responsible for his or her services and compliance with the requirements applicable to his or her profession and license. Neither InstaCare nor any third parties who promote the Services or provide you with a link to the Service shall be liable for any professional advice you obtain from a Treating Provider via the Services.
Site Content. None of the Site content (other than information you receive from Treating Providers) should be considered medical advice or an endorsement, representation or warranty that any particular medication or treatment is safe, appropriate, or effective for you.
Telehealth is the delivery of health care services using interactive audio and video technology, where the patient and the health care professional are not in the same physical location. During your telehealth consultation with a Treating Provider, details of your health history and personal health information may be discussed with you through the use of interactive video, audio and other telecommunications technology, and your Treating Provider may perform a physical examination through these technologies.
Delays in evaluation or treatment could occur due to failures of the electronic equipment. If this happens, you may be contacted by phone or other means of communication.
Although the electronic systems we use will incorporate network and software security protocols to protect the privacy and security of health information, in rare instances, security protocols could fail, causing a breach of privacy of personal health information.
You understand that you may expect the anticipated benefits from the use of telehealth in your care, but that no results can be guaranteed or assured.
You understand that the laws that protect the privacy and security of health information apply to telehealth, and have received InstaCare’s Notice of Privacy Practices, which describes these protections in more detail. Electronic communications are directed to your Treating Provider(s) and their supervisees through a secure, encrypted video interface and electronic health record.
Your Treating Provider may determine that the Services are not appropriate for some or all of your treatment needs, and accordingly may elect not to provide telehealth services to you through the Site.
With respect to psychotherapy, you are entitled to receive information from your Treating Provider about the methods of therapy, the techniques used, the duration of your therapy (if known), and the fee structure. You can seek a second opinion from another therapist or terminate therapy at any time.
With respect to psychotherapy, if you and your Treating Provider decide to engage in group or couples therapy (collectively “Group Therapy”), you understand that information discussed in Group Therapy is for therapeutic purposes and is not intended for use in any legal proceedings involving Group Therapy participants. You agree not to subpoena the Treating Provider to testify for or against other Group Therapy participants or provide records in court actions against other Group Therapy participants. You understand that anything any Group Therapy participant tells the Treating Provider individually, whether on the phone or otherwise, may at the therapist’s discretion be shared with the other Group Therapy participants. You agree to share responsibility with the Treating Provider for the therapy process, including goal setting and termination.
You can send messages to your Treating Provider by contacting InstaCare Customer Support at 92-322-499-5562. Emails or electronic messages to Customer Support or your Treating Provider may not be returned immediately. If you are experiencing a medical emergency, you should call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
You may also be able to send written notes to therapists or other Treating Providers or to Customer Support using a secure messaging portal within the Site (the “Messaging Portal”). Messages you send over the Messaging Portal may be viewed by more than one Treating Provider or Customer Support agent and will typically be answered within 48 hours. You should not rely on the Messaging Portal if you need immediate attention from a Treating Provider or other health care professional. If you are experiencing a medical emergency, you should call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. You understand and agree that messaging with Treating Providers over the Messaging Portal does not give rise to a provider-patient relationship, and does not by itself constitute treatment, diagnosis, therapy, or medical advice.

Brands were more reticent than usual in their promotional activity this Easter – overall deal numbers were down 8% on 2014 – but with the seasonal festivities now over they seem to have rediscovered their appetite for promotions.
The latest data on featured space promotions from industry analysts Assosia reveals fmcg’s branded heavyweights have stepped up their deal activity over the past four weeks, with the number of their promotions up both compared with the previous month and on a year-on-year basis.
The total number of deals this month is nearly 7% higher than in the previous four-week period and up 7.3% on the corresponding period last year. Of the top 10 brands, seven ran more featured-space deals this month than last, and eight are promoting more than they did a year ago.
Standout increases include a 22.7% month-on-month rise from Cadbury as well as eye-catching increases in deals activity from Mr Kipling (up 75.6% year on year and up 21.2% month on month) McVitie’s (up 41% year on year) and Walkers (up 35.6% on last year).
Once Coca-Cola reduced its promotional activity both year on year and month on month; meanwhile, Mars ran fewer deals than a year ago but stepped up activity by 17% on last month, while Nestlé and Walkers both recorded month-on-month dips in deals but remained up on last year.
Despite the overall increase in deal activity from brands, however, the savings offered to shoppers was down slightly. With an average saving of 32.8% this month, savings were down 0.4% on last month and down 0.5% year on year.
The picture is skewed by significant variation from brand to brand, though. Birds Eye saw the sharpest drop in savings offered – down roughly 5% month on month and year on year – while Coca-Cola dramatically increased average saving. Most brands held steady overall, with small increases or decreases in the 0.1% to 1% range.

"The Kafirs lost 50 to 1 in the Orlando nightclub jihad...."
The Kafirs lost 50 to 1 in the Orlando nightclub jihad.
The reason for choosing to kill homosexuals is found in Islamic doctrine. The Koran condemns homosexuals, but offers no penalty for the crime. The Hadith (traditions of Mohammed) calls for a death sentence.
But this latest jihad killing is just one of thousands that have happened around the world. Why are we losing? We are losing the war, because we keep offering reasons to excuse Islam for the jihad.
Jihadists are never lone wolves. Every jihadist has a perfect partner in the jihad in Mohammed and Allah.
Don’t see, don’t tell. Actually, we have a stupid motto of: “If you see something, say something.” But if you report a problem about a Muslim, it will be ignored and you can be called a bigot.
We accept Sharia as another set of religious laws, like Jewish law. However, the Sharia contains evil in the form of jihad, hatred of Kafirs, killing homosexuals and apostates. All of Sharia is contaminated with evil.
We call jihad extremism. But 24% of the Koran of Medina is about jihad. If it is in the Islamic doctrine, then it is not extreme, but normal.
We call jihad imams extremist. If an imam talks about the doctrine of jihad, he is not extreme, but speaking about doctrine.
We say that Islam needs reform. How do you reform a Koran that is complete, perfect, universal and eternal?
Those who talk about political Islam are called Muslim haters, but we just talk about a political doctrine.
We cannot criticize a religion (except Christianity). Well, political Islam is not a religion, it is a political system.
Our politicians back tying the hands of law enforcement. Clergy defend Islam and refuse to complain about the killing of Christians, Jews, Hindus and Buddhists.
So, how do we win? Our strategy: It’s the Islam, stupid! We need to attack a political doctrine by knowing it and use the right language. Every Muslim shall be held accountable for all of the jihad, Kafir hating actions and words of Mohammed and Allah. We must defeat political Islam by using political attack methods of humor, irony, ridicule and criticism of a political system.

Can the IRS Tax Virtual Profits in On-Line Gaming?
If you haven't misspent hours battling an Arctic Ogre Lord near an Ice Dungeon or been equally profligate spending time reading the published works of the Internal Revenue Service, you probably haven't wondered whether the United States government will someday tax your virtual winnings from games played over the Internet.
You know all that gold you stored up playing virtual world games online? Someday soon, you may have to hand a chunk over to the IRS. An article in Legal Affairs considers the concept of whether virtual goods won in massively multiplayer online games are taxable.
There are already established economies for buying and selling goods won online for real dollars. So it's not that hard to put actual values on goods won through the games. Legal Affairs writer Julian Dibbell decided to test the tax question by reporting income he made from selling virtual goods on eBay. Then he began querying the IRS on the value of the goods he hadn't sold for hard cash: If he bartered another player for a Golden Runic Hammer, for instance, would he have to pay taxes on the value of the hammer? The IRS didn't come up with a final answer ("That's so weird," one official said.) But given that the agency already taxes things like the value of stolen goods, can a virtual tax man be that off?
Ars Technica, Are MMORPG Goods Theoretically Taxable?

Fresh flatbread sandwiches and square-shaped bagels known as “Squagels” are now being served on the downtown Northwestern Medicine campus with the opening of a new Cosi restaurant in 259 East Erie.
Located on the first floor with access from Ontario Street, Cosi is the third food vendor to move into 259 East Erie, following the openings of Stan’s Donuts and an Au Bon Pain kiosk. It also opens on the heels of a new, expanded Walgreens in Galter Pavilion, which features grab-and-go food items, a frozen yogurt station and other food options.
Cosi, a national fast-casual restaurant chain with additional locations in Chicago and other cities, offers a variety of sandwiches and melts served on its signature flatbread, which is made fresh every day, says Keith Borre, area director for Cosi. Options range from the vegetarian Hearth-Roasted Veggie sandwich to the more meat-centric Steakhouse Gorgonzola Melt. Customers can choose from a range of made-to-order salads, as well.
The restaurant also offers flatbread pizzas, bowls, salads and soups — plus a Taste Two option that the lets diners choose among a half sandwich, soup and half salad. Cosi is open for breakfast, too, serving items such as wraps, sandwiches, parfaits, oatmeal and and an assortment of Squagels.
Cosi, along with the other recent openings, is part of Shop & Dine Northwestern, a strategy that is bringing new restaurants and retailers to the downtown campus. The new businesses cater not just to employees, patients and visitors, but also to people in the surrounding Streeterville neighborhood.
On a recent lunch break, Nuclear Medicine technologists Katie Tucker and Elizabeth Gray dined at a table in Cosi, just two of the many Northwestern Medicine employees checking out the restaurant on opening day.
More options are on their way, including LYFE Kitchen, a restaurant that emphasizes healthy, sustainably sourced ingredients.

I would not trade owning franchises for anything, but with that said, starting a business is not cheap or easy.
Clearly it’s not for everyone.
If you’ve got an existing business, current job, lost a job, or looking for a job, my process works. I can help you find some great franchises to research and maybe buy.
And if we both decide we’re a good fit, then we can move forward and I will guide you along the franchise buying process.
Requests Are Reviewed And Responded To On A First Come, First Served Basis.

Microsoft Corp has selected Surat in the Indian state of Gujarat to develop it as India’s first ‘smart city’ under the company’s CityNext initiative launched in 2013. Under the ‘Smart City’ initiative, Microsoft aims to use a combination of cloud technology, mobile applications, data analytics and social networks to provide real-time data of all civic services. Systems will also be developed to tackle natural disasters more effectively with the use of information technology.
“For example, if any person wants to know the location of a doctor in the city, they can easily get it on their mobile with the apps that will be developed by Microsoft,” deputy commissioner of the Surat Municipal Corporation (SMC), C Y Bhatt said.
The project is likely to start by end of May 2014. Besides, Microsoft Corp will help the SMC develop a virtual world at the Science Center of the city that will have a virtual wall.
“This will be a component of the project under development of the Surat as a first smart city of the country,” municipal commissioner Manoj Das said.
Das said the civic body is planning to enhance present systems where digital world is integrated with real world in all aspects. Information systems would also be developed that will give accurate data on virtually anything and everything about Surat. A Microsoft team visited an existing SMC facility of e-governance in all the departments and the project envisages making this facility more user-friendly.
The town planning department work will also be made simpler in the ‘smart city’ project. At present, developers have to visit the town planning department frequently to get their plans sanctioned.
“However with new app that is being developed, an architect could submit the plan online and track the progress. This will save a lot of time, money and energy on both sides and reduce delays,” the director of planning, Jivan Patel, said.

i would like to start by stating first and foremost: i am not a classically trained chef. i have had no formal training, i have never taken a cooking class, but i have grown up watching the greatest chefs that i know: my grandmother and mother. this site is simply about sharing a love of food (and wine) and the joy of being able to make any recipe your own.
about my recipes: some will be super healthy, some will be not-so healthy (because i believe in real butter). some will be simple, some will be adventurous, but all will be delicious. like i mentioned above, in my experience, you can make any recipe your own. if you don’t like certain ingredients, swap them out with ones you do. cooking is not about being perfect, it’s about creating a dish that will make you and your appetite happy. bringing a recipe to life is like a road trip with twists and turns from prep to plate.
my name is kate davis and i welcome you into my kitchen with open tongs. i won’t ever promise perfection, because i believe a great meal is made of a pinch of curiosity, determination, and usually a glass of wine (not always for cooking). bon appétit!

Washington. The petitioner in B.M.H. was B.M.H.’s former stepfather, a category of petitioner already found ineligible to assert de facto status in M.F. A.F.J. had been placed into the custody of the petitioner for foster care, in the context of a dependency proceeding. This seemed to clearly be a bar to seeking de facto status, given that the child was technically placed in the petitioner’s care at the behest of the state in the context of a dependency proceeding. With neither petitioner appearing to be a viable candidate for adjudication of parentage under the de facto doctrine, and with the statutory gap identified in L.B. closed, what, if any, viability did the doctrine have?
The biological mothers and amici curiae3 opposing the extension of the de facto doctrine in both cases presented these (among other) arguments to the Court, urging that the doctrine be limited only to cases that are factually similar to L.B., and raising the constitutional concerns identified by the Court in M.F.
reaffirmed the policy it promoted in L.B.
formed a loving, connected relationship?
In some respects, the answer to this question is “time will tell.” As the de facto doctrine continues to be litigated in the trial courts, it can be reasonably expected that aggrieved parties will appeal, thus putting the doctrine up for further scrutiny in the appellate courts. However, B.M.H. and A.F.J., when considered in the context of prior de facto cases, do not lack guidance as to who can meritoriously seek a determination of parentage under the doctrine.
The Court in both cases relied heavily on the first factor — consent to and fostering of the parent-child relationship — in finding that the petitioners had standing. The “consent” factor is a meaningful limit, as it will not permit a non-parent to proceed with a de facto petition with regard to a child who has two legal parents — because only one of the parents could meaningfully consent to a new partner becoming a “parent” to a child. Indeed, this is what occurred in M.F. We do not know the level of involvement that M. F.’s father had in M. F.’s life, but this was not something that the Court even considered in determining that Corbin had no standing.
The consent factor is not just about consenting to a familial relationship; it is about a parent consenting to the development of a parent-child relationship. Our family courts have the ability to distinguish between a parent promoting a healthy and bonded relationship with a relative or family friend, and a parent who intends to create a true parent-child relationship between their child and a non-parent.

Yet another update on the anti-rollback release! -5 января 2018 г.
We are finally there where everything is working...almost every time.
Unfortunately that is not "good enough" as it fails every 3-4th time.

This man in the forest…perhaps he begins not as a painter. But he meets a beautiful woman and she inspires in him the desire to paint the walls of his house. When he is done painting those walls, colors he would never choose but colors that remind him of her, he cannot stop painting for painting reminds him of her.
He begins then to paint canvases. At first one…then two.
He wants badly to show this beautiful woman his paintings but she is interested only in one thing: leaving the forest forever. The man has fallen deeply in love. She has captivated his heart. And she knows this. But she is only interesting in having this man assist her in one thing: to help her in her dream of leaving.
The man is heart broken. And seeks council of a wise woman who helped him long ago. He paid her in gold coins for many years and worked with him to feel, eventually, somewhat happier.
Sad down to the bones, and painting up a storm, he calls upon this wise woman once again to help him again with his pain. Along with him he brings to her one or two of his paintings. The wise woman is is thrilled with his work.
The man, who has never thought much of his paintings, feels better for the praise. And continues to bring his paintings this wise woman.
As time passes eventually the man is rejected by the woman he has fallen in love with. But his devastation lasts only but a few days for he has found purpose in sharing his paintings now with the wise woman.
What wisdom do we gain now with our allegory?
I see it more clearly…this is the truthiest truth I was looking for.
Eileen’s admiration was perhaps genuine but I think the truth of the matter is…that she is a narcissist and admiration is used to generate narcissistic supply. In other words, by admiring someone vulnerable you manipulate them into needing you. You end up controlling people this way.
As I wrote the story it became clearer to me that the deep truth is that I think Eileen wanted what I felt for another woman to be transferred to her. In a very deep and fucked up way I think that this is the truth.
Is it possible to relate this to Notice and the anger?
I think that the man in the forest grows very, very dependent upon the wise woman to admire his work, to validate it. It is because he has been manipulated by her. He pays her in gold coins and in return she oohs and ahhs like no one has ever in the man’s life done before.
The forest, despite its vast size, when viewed from above, begins to fill in in vivid colors for the man’s canvases have grown in volume. They start to fill a void inside the man that he did not know exist.
Every day he shows the wise woman his work. And every day he grows more grateful for the wise woman’s presence and with the productivity and flow it seems to unleash.
With the wise woman’s wind beneath his brushes he paints wildly. He does not understand where and how exactly the paint fall onto the canvas or why, he only knows to paint. And paint. And paint.
Without realizing it, he has begun painting for her. For the pleasure of showing her.
And although he continues to give her gold coins every week, these coins seem besides the point. For she seems genuinely to love his work.
And his love for painting, painting now for her, grows.
But one spring day while painting in the forest the man stumbles upon a letter next to one of his canvases from the wise woman. He opens it and it reads like a letter to him. But it’s not. The wise woman’s words speak not of the man’s paintings that he felt that she genuinely loved but instead the wise woman says that she wishes to be the woman that the man once loved, the woman who did not have to look at his paintings but was, rather, simply the recipient of his love and adoration.
The wise woman speaks of her fatigue in the work it takes to earn her gold coins.
The man is devastated to see the truth; that she has been hired to applaud his work. And that deep down inside what the wise woman really wants is not his paintings but his love, or someone’s love. Love like he was able to give to the first woman. She wonders to herself how she stays married to the man she is with when there is such potential for extreme passion in the world that he has shown, passion that the painter once had for the woman who left long ago.
The man is shaken by the finding of this letter and he asks the wise woman if he was supposed to see her words. Embarrassed, at first she says yes.
He realizes that the wise woman whom he looked up to is not as sure footed as he thought. He realizes too that the truth is, in part, that her love of his work has been paid for in gold coins.
The pain of seeing that the one person who seemed to understand and love his paintings is not genuine is so deep that it slices him just like a knife in two. And, like that, one part of him remains knowing that he has seen the wise woman’s letter. And the other part of him goes on to believe that she is everything he wanted her to be.
The painter is now two painters inside.
And he continues to paint. And paint. And paint. Even more than before.
Keep going. Hard work. Clear lake.
Then one day, months later, the one painter who is now two inside, goes to see the wise woman. He brings her a painting he has created that day especially for her, to give to her, to thank her for all she has done for him.
She carefully puts the painting to the side, smiling briefly. And then she has something to say to the man who is now two inside.
The painter, both painters inside, sense that a blow will be landing.
The wise woman says that she no longer wishes to have a thing to do with the man’s paintings. She tells the painter that she will be vacationing in six weeks and when she comes back she will never again view another piece of his work.
Both painters inside the man feel desperately ashamed. One of the painters inside feels like a small child, unable to speak or understand all that is going on. The other painter is an adult, ashamed of his paintings, of not quite understanding why he is compelled to paint, knowing only that it is the wise woman who seems to have inspired him deeply to do so.
The wise woman, over time and without his control, has worked her way into becoming for him, everything. And where there may have been one painter inside him when this story began, then two when the man finds the wise woman’s letter, it is in these moments that there is a blossoming inside, a team forming to protect the man’s sadness and loneliness from landing a mortal blow.
Continue, S, if you can.
After the wise woman serves her notice, the man who is now many inside loses all of his confidence. But still, he finds a desire to paint. The man who is now many inside finds a team that encourages him to continue to paint, despite everything. Some of the team members tell the man that the wise woman still loves his paintings and that his work is worthy. And the man begins to rely on his team inside to keep him going. And to tell him the things he needs to hear to survive a heart that feels broken beyond repair.
The wise woman continues to receive the painter’s gold coins and observes his broken heart. She changes her mind and says she will continue to look at his paintings.
But the sting of her original notice cannot be undone. One member of the man’s team inside in particular holds vigil, reminding the painter that a heart as cold as the wise woman’s will never be melted. He reminds the painter to never trust the woman—the woman whose letter speaks not of the man’s painting but of her own needs. He reminds the painter that this wise woman is not very wise and that she does not have a sense of how she and the man’s paintings are everything to him. This team member holds a vigil on a park bench and remains there in the man’s mind, a reminder to not forget and to stay safe.
Another team member inside the man receives a love letter from the wise woman. How, she tells him in the form of a poem, she loves his paintings. Each one, she says, is a treasure and her treasure chest, she says, is spilling over with his gifts.
The man who is now many inside feels chaotic. Worthy. And unworthy. One team member is seduced by the wise woman while another is holding a vigil to forget never once the pain she causes.
As the months go by the man who is now many inside cannot tell what or who he is. But he continues to paint. And paint. And paint. He paints for the wise woman despite all the pain and confusion he feels. He just knows to paint and he cannot stop.
The wise woman pays him attention in one moment and at times rejects the painter, ignores him, says mean things occasionally, too. At one point she looks at him and says…why the fuss…it’s just globs of paint on a canvas. She has begun to speak regularly without the care she once had for the painter. And the painter has begun to expect this as the normal course of things.
Until one day the wise woman appears to be who she was long, long ago. Caring and sweet. And admiring.
And the painter perks up.
But within days the painter understands the change; the wise woman was preparing to ask the man for more gold coins.
The painter eventually grows angry at the way he is being treated. He wrestles with his anger, tries desperately to control and contain it. He fears losing the wise woman’s love with his anger. But still, anger finds him every day.
Unable to not express his anger, he begins to paint ugly portraits of the wise woman. And just like all his other paintings, the ones he is paying a greater fee to share with her, he brings these now to her.
Take that, he says in his portraits.
His paintbrush, he sees, has become his sword. The wise woman is quickly sliced and wounded. Attacked, she lashes back at the painter. The money, she says, it was the money and the money only that has driven her to admire his work.
Even as the lashing and slicing go on the man continues to paint and the forest now contains well over four thousand canvases in all. Canvases the painter cannot seem to understand or fathom but canvases, nonetheless he sits in the middle of each day and night.
One day, surrounded by these canvases, the painter has an epiphany. He realizes with great clarity that his mission in life now is to understand his paintings and his sadness and why he paints so much.
He assures himself, with this realization, that the wise woman, whom he is paying even more gold coins to, is being paid to be wise, wiser than he. Surely, he tells himself, she can help him to understand this forest filled with four thousand paintings. Surely, he says, she can explain to him why he finds himself many inside where in the beginning of this story he was one.
But the once wise woman has grown unwise. And angry. And unable to help him.
Still, deep down, the painter sees that he must understand better his paintings and why he paints. And why a team has joined him inside to help. So he seeks council in the village with an even wiser woman who specializes in those who are many inside.
The even wiser woman says that he must leave the first wise woman, that she is harming him now. And, in return for leaving her—and some of his gold coins—she will help him. She says if he wishes to bring up the wise woman’s mistreatment of him to the authorities that she will be unable to participate in such actions.
The painter who was once one and who is now many inside wants badly the help of the even wiser woman and with great sadness, sadness he cannot really face alone so he uses his entire team inside, he takes a very deep breath and with a great flood of tears he says goodbye to the woman he felt was once wise, the first and the only person who felt his paintings had worth.
Grief stricken he is now in the hands of the even wiser woman in town.
She tells him that it is okay to talk of the first wise woman. But when he does, when speaks of wanting to paint for the new wiser woman like he did the last wise woman, she says no, no, no.
Don’t you see, she says. This is like a small child running to its mother for attention.
Don’t you, she says, get it?
The even wiser woman scares the painter. And he puts the painting that he had hidden in his bag to bring to her even deeper into his bag. He feels ashamed.
Who, he thinks, do I paint for now?
The even wiser woman says that although it is okay to speak of the first wise woman, that the real work is figuring out who the painter was before he ever even encountered the first wise woman or even the woman he fell in love with long, long ago.
The painter then takes all of his paintings, now six thousand, and analyzes every single one. He discovers that he was a painter deep inside himself long, long ago but that he’d been asleep for five decades. He slept for five decades because as a very young child he had been beaten and abandoned by his mother and left in the woods to be eaten by a red wolf. The only way to cope with the sadness and danger was to go to sleep and in his dreams summons the same team inside his own self to keep him happy and calm.
The painter who was many inside had been many inside for a long time.
It was the woman he fell in love with who woke him up. And he began once again to paint. He was no longer being beaten by his mother and the red wolf had long since found other things to eat. Free at last, he was safe to become the painter he had always wanted to become.
The wiser woman applauded the painter’s new found wisdom and clarity and patted herself heartily on the back for all the work she had done in guiding the painter to an accurate re-telling of his life’s story.
However, the painter remained angry. And sad. And left to ponder the mother who left him. And beat him. And the red wolf who tried each day to eat him too. Pieces of his life that had not bothered him until he met up with these wise women.
The pain of his years with the first wise woman was tossed to the side as well. This pain, the even wiser woman said, was of no consequence to her or anyone else. And besides, she said silently in between the lines in the words that she spoke, if you get angry enough at the first wise woman you will someday become just as angry with me. And I, pray tell, do not want any of that around me.
The painter continued to paint for in his heart this was all he ever really was or wanted to be. The forest, now north of seven thousand paintings, began to fill with new paintings. Ones that looked different.
He continued to see the wiser woman who prescribed one day a beloved elixir. She called her potion EMDR and giggled as the painter drank from the goblet she gave to him.
As he drank and she giggled he grew sleepier and sleepier and alas he found himself in the park bench park with the part of himself who was still sitting vigil, still hurt deeply for the pain the first wise woman caused him.
He began to cry which tickled the wiser woman for the elixir is known for its ability to generate tears.
As he woke from his sleep he told the wiser woman of his journey inside and of the pain that the first wise woman caused him.
The wiser woman smiled. And silently she said out loud that the pain of the first wise woman was no pain at all. That the wise woman was an old fool. And that his real pain was only to be pinned upon his mother. And the red wolf.
The painter left feeling still sleepy from all his tears. But as one day turned into two and two into three he could not shake the first wise woman and the pain that she caused him and the vigil that one of his team members inside held for the pain.
He was, he realized, still bleeding from the pain that the first wise woman had caused him. His heart, he realized, was not healed. For the even wiser woman had failed to help him with the pain that he brought with him when he first arrived at her doorstep.
He came back to the wiser woman and said…you, wiser woman, are not not wiser. Nor perhaps even wise. All the wisdom lays inside me. Not in you. Or your elixir.
You said if I gave up the first wise woman and gave you my gold coins you would help me to heal. But you ignored much of my pain. And you too have harmed me. Not as much as the first wise woman for I have grown wiser myself. But you shall listen to me, and perhaps view my paintings as well.
The painter then began to review his older work and also he continued to paint anew. Together, old and new, he began to become the painter he wanted to become. Together, old paintings and new, he began to see that the deepest wisdom was to be found in his own work and self. And that the wise women he turned to in the village were no wiser than he.

Symantec's Client Intrusion Detection System (CIDS) driver may cause a system crash when interacting with a specifically-crafted Portable Executable file.
Symantec was notified of a system crash, Denial of Service (DoS) in the CIDS engine driver when interacting with a specifically-crafted portable-executable (PE) files. A malicious individual would first need to entice an authorized user to download a malformed PE file either through opening an email attachment, downloading a malicious document or application or by enticing the user to visit a web site where a malicious file could be downloaded to their system. Once downloaded, the malicious file must be manipulated on the targeted system hard drive to interact with the vulnerable CIDS engine.
Sufficiently malformed, the code would execute at the kernel-level with system privileges causing memory corruption resulting in a system crash.
Symantec engineers have addressed this in the latest CIDS engine update release effective 7/7/2016 delivered to customers via LiveUpdate with normal definition and signature updates.
Discovered by Piotr Bania of Cisco Talos. Symantec would like to thank Cisco Talos for reporting this to us and working with us as we addressed the issue.

The Notion of ‘Sin’ in Islam and Christianity Are Western Leaders Sellouts To Islam?
Time for Republican voters to stop whining over the so-called RINO (Republicans In Name Only) in congress when in fact it is we, Republican voters, who have failed our congressional leadership over and over again. How can we expect the republican leadership to stand up strong to the liberal agenda, media abuse, and entrapment, when we the voters, who should be their back bone, do not show up to vote in decisive election years.
Some republican voters and activists seem unable to not get off their high horses, when in the 2012 election, they refused to elect one of the most decent and competent Americans running for president, Mit Romney. Their stubborn reasoning was “I would not vote for a Mormon”, or “he is not conservative enough.” Thus Barak Obama and Harry Reid, were both re-elected.
Some republican voters would rather shoot themselves in the foot than realize that politics is a game of compromise and strategy. Even after the great disappointment with the re-election of Obama, many continue to complain about the party leadership and how Boener, McConnel and Graham, are not pushing a more conservative agenda. Few realize and verbalize the fact that when we failed to elect Romney and kept the senate in the hands of democrats, we have sucked the power out of republican leadership.
Not only are they not getting the support they need to push the conservative agenda, but also they must survive the cut throat environment in Washington D.C. where, as is often said, a ham sandwich can be indicted.
The brazen violations by the IRS and Department of Justice against conservatives and tea party activists does not go unnoticed by politicians who could be dragged through the mud by the democratic party machinery and the one sided media. Just ask Sarah Palin, Michelle Backman, Chris Christie, Rick Perry, Newt Gingrich, Tom DeLay, etc.
And now many republicans, including those who were reluctant to vote for Romney, are singing the same tune before the coming elections: “we are fed up with the republican party” or “I will change to independent.” Such people are harming the conservative cause that they claim they love, more than any liberal action. Such republicans have a misguided, punitive attitude and instead of voting wisely, they would rather throw the baby with the bath water. They spread defeatist propaganda among other less informed republicans, which could cause a split in republican ranks that could bring us a repeat of the Ross Perot fiasco that contributed to the election of Bill Clinton. But this time, it could be Hillary.
Republican and independent voters must wise up this time and understand what is at stake with the rise of Islamic State while America is under the most incompetent and paralyzed presidency in its history. If we shoot ourselves in the foot again, we have no one to blame but ourselves and we might not be able to stand up on our feet once again.
Democrats are good at closing ranks and keeping their representatives in power, even those who are embarrassingly incompetent, such as Nancy Palosi, Harry Reid etc.
No democrat in power today can hold a candle to the many great republicans we have in office today; governor Scott Walker, Congressman Paul Ryan, Senator Marco Rubio, governor Rick Perry, Senator Rand Paul, governor John Kasich, governor Jan Brewer and former governor Jeb Bush.
The next republican president of the US will hopefully undo the damage Obama has done to this nation both internally and externally. But if Republicans don’t show up in massive numbers to vote then we should not complain if Hillary takes the mantle from Obama. In that case, it is not the RINO republicans’ fault, but the RINOs would be us.

Q. As I get older, does it really matter to stay physically active?
If you feel out of shape -- but want to remain physically active -- the key to success is to build up slowly from your current fitness level, according to the National Institute On Aging.
How much time and how often are you active?
When you’re active, what kinds of activities are you doing?
Measure your endurance by picking a fixed course — once around the block or from one end of the mall to the other. Time how long it takes you to walk it.
Test your upper-body strength by how many arm curls you can do safely in 2 minutes.
Test your lower-body strength by how many times you can stand from a seated position safely in 2 minutes.
Test your flexibility by sitting toward the front of a sturdy chair, and stretching one leg straight out in front of you with your heel on the floor and your toes pointing up. Bend the other leg and place your foot flat on the floor. Slowly bend from your hips and reach as far as you can toward the toes of your outstretched foot. How far can you reach before you feel a stretch?
Write down your results. If these exercises were hard to do, just do what’s comfortable and slowly build up. If they were easy, you know your level of fitness is higher. You can be more ambitious and challenge yourself. You can do these simple fitness tests once a month, and measure your progress at each session.
Muscle soreness lasting a few days and slight fatigue are normal after doing muscle-building exercises, at least at first. After doing these exercises for a few weeks, you will probably not be sore after your workout. For some exercises, you may want to start alternating arms and work your way up to using both arms at the same time. Breathe out as you lift or push, and breathe in as you relax. Don’t hold your breath during strength exercises. Holding your breath while straining can cause changes in blood pressure. Breathe in slowly through your nose and breathe out slowly through your mouth. Talk with your doctor if you are unsure about doing a particular exercise, especially if you’ve had hip or back surgery.
Safety during exercises is always important, Walk during the day or in well-lit areas at night, and be aware of your surroundings. To prevent injuries, be sure to use safety equipment. If you are exercising outdoors, dress in layers so you can add or remove clothes if you get cold or hot. Drink plenty of liquids when doing any activity that makes you sweat. Before and after you exercise, do a little light activity to warm up and cool down.
Each year, more than 2 million older Americans go to the emergency room because of fall-related injuries. You can learn exercises that will improve your balance and make you steadier on your feet. You can see pictures and short videos of any of these exercises, plus get more fitness tips by going to the National Institute On Aging website.

It’s done it again! My desk has caught me unaware and got out of control. My desk has a personality. I think of it as somewhere between an unruly teenager and a hardened criminal out to do damage. It stays under the radar by sitting here quietly while it plots its evil and procreates.
I work every day, some doing a lot of writing and on less productive days I try to clear the 101 things that pile up. Everything from correspondence to my checkbook to phone calls or work on classes I frequently take on line. You would think I would notice the desk creeping up on me, wouldn’t you? Turning that 101 things into 1,001 and turning one pile into three or four.
All I can tell you is that this thing is really good. The FBI would be thrilled to get it. It sneaks up on you and gets all the information about you or anything you are doing. Then hides it! Honest. You need the mind of a chess master to find anything. You know you put it down right there but where did it go? The desk hid it. I’m thinking of getting a hammer and nails and every time I put something down, bam, I nail it to the desk. Let it try to hide it then. I haven’t figured out what to do about those tall piles to big to nail down. People who come to visit look at my desk with this strange look. They know better than to ask or comment. Only my husband does that. I find a lot of things outside for him to do.
Guess I can’t be too concerned right now. I have a book to write and I can’t let this desk sidetrack me.

Now that summer is all but over, I’ve realised that it’s time to embrace autumn and all the good things it brings with it. There has already been a flurry of activity on Instagram with fellow homeowners turning their attention to autumn décor. For anyone who likes to reflect the changing seasons with design and decorations, it’s definitely the perfect time of year. The summer always feels like there’s more of an outdoor focus as we try to make the most of what little warmth and sunshine we have. But come autumn, we start to spend more time inside, and interior comforts become priorities as the temperatures dip.
Given this changing focus, and the fact that we’re already nearing the end of September, here are a few tips to keep in mind for autumn interior decorating.
When the autumn rolls around, our focus turns to colour palettes that combine warm shades. Burnt oranges, burgundy, and deep yellows are among the colours many associate with this season, largely because they reflect the shades of falling leaves. But as this handy list of autumn decorating ideas points out, this is also a nice time to bring seasonal greenery into your home. “Seasonal” depends to some extent on where you live, of course, but the idea is to use a bouquet of magnolia leaves, a few perennial flowers, or even some evergreen branches to bring nature into the home. These types of decorations also transition very naturally to the winter.
There’s definitely a rustic quality to autumn design, and a lot of people find that it’s most effectively embraced through wooden furnishings and decorations. I love the warmth and period feel our reclaimed wood console table and mirror create to welcome guests into our home. There’s so much to be done even with a small amount of reclaimed wood however; be it crafting your own shelves or photo frames or simply putting up a sign (“Cosy Fire This Way”). Something we want to do is create a mantelpiece above our living room fireplace and could then use this to display autumn woodland gatherings.
Just because the seasons are changing, doesn’t mean those crafty and DIY projects need to stop. Whether you’re working on a handmade presents, incorporating some autumnal projects into your home, or like us attacking the renovation with renewed vigour, you’ll want to make sure your tools are up to the task. A hammer, nails, and screwdriver are probably laying around somewhere, but for a professional-looking design job, it’s worth considering going for more heavy-duty appliances. Browsing through quality power drills with the latest technology can give you an idea if what you have is really up to the standard of today’s DIY and crafting efforts. If not, you can always pick up a high-end power drill to take care of most woodworking tasks that might be on the cards. We’ve got a log store coming at the end of October and if we do go ahead with our reclaimed wood mantel this side of Christmas, we’ll definitely be in need of a tools refresh.
For me, autumn is one of the best seasons to showcase beautiful food. We’re less concerned with salads and more with comforting soups and stews. One of my favourite Instagram accounts was recently showcasing an amazing collection of pumpkins and squashes harvested from her allotment and they make the perfect seasonal decorations. I’ll be joining the pumpkin brigade this year to hopefully welcome some trick or treaters and bringing some of those reds, golds and oranges into our home to compliment fireside hygge.
We came home from Cornwall with endless amounts of beautiful photos, capturing coastal views and countryside life. We’ve never really gone in for photo displays but I do love the idea of creating a gallery wall from our travels and now that our furbaby family is complete too! Being ginger, Boo is the perfect colour for autumn and we’ve already had plenty of leaf-strewn dog walks with Maddie so it would be a lovely seasonal refresh to actually get some of them on display. I also love the idea of personalising a canvas print with a meaningful photo. A great idea for an affordable and unique addition to interior décor.
I’m determined to embrace the season this year and would love to know what your tips are for getting autumn ready. As always, it’s a happy and comfortable time of year.

love this! I’ve been going a bit crazy with the autumnal decor lately but I just cant help myself!

Reconstituting the intense irradiance of short-arc discharge lamps at a remote target, at high radiative efficiency, represents a central challenge in the design of high-temperature chemical reactors, heightened by the need for high numerical aperture at both the target and the source. Separating the optical system from both the source and the reactor allows pragmatic operation, monitoring, and control. We explore near-field unfolded aplanats as feasible solutions and report measurements for a prototype that constitutes a double-ellipsoid mirror. We also propose compound unfolded aplanats that collect lamp emission over all angles (in lieu of light recycling optics) and irradiate the reactor over nearly its full circumference.

I had my last workshop today. 13 tatters. One lady was Toshiko Takashima, who is 94 years old. She wrote the book on japanese needle tatting. She was there with her daughter Taeko. They gave me some instruction books along with some needles. They have hooks on each end. Guess I'll have to give it a try.
The ladies again were just as sweet as can be and I had a great time. A representative from the Clover company came to look at my shuttle collection. I brought about 30 shuttles. She asked me what tatters would like to see new from Clover. I told her I liked to see pretty designs on shuttles and larger one without a tip for beads. You gals have any other suggestions I'll pass it on, I have her card.
The tatting you see is a center piece the tatter put on her shirt so I could picture it better. All the single shuttle tatting has three silver seed beads on the in inner thread. It looked real cute with a little bling.
I also went to a kimono fashion show today. They were beautiful. The building houses a textile shop. They had working looms showing the different fabrics they and of course some for sale. It was a fun place to shop.
Oh my GOSH you met Toshiko Takashima and her daughter? I met them both about eighteen or so years ago in Leicester. Such a sweet pair of ladies. If you see them again please, please say hello to them from me - IF they remember me.
Have to say I'd still want the tip on a bigger shuttle for beads. Don't really want the shuttle longer, just with a taller post since beads do take up more room. I love their shuttles just as they are. Lucky you to get to meet so many wonderful people!
Hi Sharren, Have you seen the new pastel clovers, there's a lilac colored one in that group?

Rosemary has been tracing her family history since 1985 - her research interests lie primarily in Australia, England and Scotland. A statistician by training, she has worked in that field as an hydrologist, teacher and biometrician. Her tertiary qualifications include a BSc (Mathematics) and BA (Computer Science) both from the University of Queensland. She currently works as a consultant for Gould Genealogy & History and is a speaker with the Unlock the Past team.
She has published numerous indexes to cemeteries and government records though is probably best known for her work with her husband Eric on the Emigrants from Hamburg to Australasia 1850-1879 publication.
Findmypast.com.au is just 18 months old and has made huge strides during that time with 50 million records available for searching already – and soon that will more than double, making it the place to visit for research into Australian and New Zealand families.
There are almost 160 data sets totalling 10 million records in this category – covering all Australian States and New Zealand. Family history relies on us knowing where our family was living and we can learn where they lived and moved from these records – their address, occupation and perhaps even find an advertisement for their business.
Electoral rolls are, for the most part, the nearest thing Australians and New Zealanders have to census records and hence are an extremely important resource for both local and family historians. On findmypast.com.au you will find records for all Australian states and for New Zealand as well – many millions of records with many more coming.
Mostly researchers consider the government, police and education gazettes to be irrelevant and uninteresting but that is definitely not the case; they contain information about people we would never find in other records. It is here that we can learn extremely interesting facts about all our ancestors – land transactions, intestacies, insolvencies, brands, stolen fortunes, intriguing descriptions and much, much more. With over 20 million entries, this is the largest set of records in the collection.
As we approach some significant military celebrations many researchers are seeking information on their family who served in various wars for both Australia and New Zealand. Apart from lists of names, the records available here often include short biographies and photographs – perhaps ones we have never seen before.
Among the 665 data sets currently available, other important records include Rookwood Cemetery (233,160 entries), Victoria Funeral Notices (119,048 entries), Cemetery Burials and Memorial Inscriptions for Victoria 1835-1997 (182,600 entries), Queensland School Pupils Indexes (almost 1.3 million entries), Queensland Railway Employees (367,651 entries) and the Emigrants from Hamburg to Australasia 1850-1879 database. There is room too for many small data sets which you may not otherwise find – one interesting set is that for the marriages on the Pitcairn Islands 1824-1854 with just 50 entries!
Together, large and small, they make a hugely valuable, unique resource for those researching down under.

Home » Veterans Law » What Are the Current VA Disability Compensation Rates for 2018?
The Department of Veterans Affairs provides veterans (VA) disability benefits to former service-members with qualifying service-related medical conditions. These benefits are designed to ensure you can make a living if you are partially or entirely unable to work.
When you apply and get approved for VA service-connected disability benefits, the Department of Veterans Affairs assigns you a disability rating. Your rating is based on how severe the VA believes your condition is. The more compelling the evidence you have that your condition keeps you from working, the higher your rating will probably be. A higher rating means a greater monthly benefit amount.
VA disability ratings range from 0 to 100 percent, in increments of 10 percent. A rating of 0 percent does not entitle you to monthly compensation; however, you are eligible for other benefits, such as healthcare. A rating from 10 to 100 percent qualifies you for monthly compensation.
Looking for the VA Disability compensation rates for 2019? Click here.
What Are the 2018 VA Disability Compensation Rates?
Can I Receive Additional Benefits for Dependents in My Household?
If your disability rating is 30 percent or higher, you are eligible to receive additional benefits for a spouse, children, or dependent parents. Your benefit amount also increases incrementally for every additional child. Any child who lives with you on a full-time basis and is under the age of 18, or between 18 and 23 but attending school, qualifies for an additional benefit amount. Children between the ages of 18 and 23 who are in school qualify for a higher incremental amount due to the presumed cost of attending school.
The VA website features an extensive table in which you can find the exact benefit amount for just about any situation imaginable (e.g., 70 percent rating, one spouse, two dependent parents, one school child over 18, and two children under 18).
If I Think My Rating Is Too Low, Can I Appeal for a Higher One?
Absolutely, you can ask the Department of Veterans Affairs for a higher disability rating. Before you do, though, it is important to understand how the process works and also to know that there are risks involved, especially if you do it without help from Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick LTD.
What risks? Basically, when you request that the VA reconsider your rating, it takes a start-from-scratch approach as opposed to only considering your argument for a higher rating. That means the VA could come back and say that, yes, it is re-rating you — and giving you a lower rating than before. Thus, you should make sure to talk with your doctor — and also, ideally, a lawyer — to make sure your case is solid before asking the Department of Veterans Affairs to reconsider.
The appeals process is often very long and frustrating. Give us a call; consultations are always free and we may be able to help.
For the best chance of a favorable outcome, you will want to attach substantial medical evidence and, preferably, also write a personalized letter to the VA that explains why your rating should be higher and points to evidence in your file to support your argument. We can manage your appeal for you so you can focus on your health and family.
Still have questions about VA disability ratings and your benefit amount? The Veterans Law attorneys at Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick LTD dedicate their practice solely to representing disabled veterans, and we can help you get the benefits you deserve. Call our office today for a free consultation: 401-331-6300.

Dahlia is a genie trapped in a locket attached to an ankle bracelet. Liana is the wearer of the bracelet, but from the first time she puts it on, things begin to go crazy. She meets Taffi, who offers to show her things she didn't know about her origins. Soon Liana is made aware of a new world and that she is connected to it. As more and more things come to light and Liana gets closer to Taffi, she will have to choose whether she will fight to protect her new world, even if it means fighting Dahlia's mortal enemy who so happens to be Taffi's father.
Tribal Affairs was an interesting book to read. I enjoyed how it was centered around themes of love and loyalty. I liked how even with so much betrayal, Liana didn't give into hate, but it wasn't my favorite to hear her keep repeating how she couldn't do it. I would recommend this book to those who like more of a mystical fantasy.

This Edutopia article around Shifting Mental Models highlights the importance of coaching around mental models with teachers.
When an instructional coach also addresses and explores a teacher's mental models about a range of topics including students with learning disabilities, children in poverty, immigrants, English learners, and so on, then there's a greater likelihood of transformational change and equity for students.
Thanks Nicole Urbatch for passing this along!
This blog post talks about the difference between Engagement and Empowerment for learners.
If we want to think about our impact long-term with students, engagement just seems to be a lower bar than what we should be trying to achieve. A student does not have to feel empowered if they are engaged, but if they are empowered, engagement will also be evident and more likely to create a deeper sense of “flow”. The learning that goes along with empowerment will be so much deeper and longer lasting.

A recent report by the Canadian Institute for Health Information indicated that residential care capacity will need to double over the next 20 years (assuming no change in how care is currently provided), necessitating a transformation in how seniors care is provided in Canada across the continuum of care.
Efforts to de-hospitalize the system and deal with Canada’s aging population should be part of an overall national seniors strategy, since the differing fiscal capacities of the provinces in the current economic climate will mean that improvements in seniors care will advance at an uneven pace.
Fixing seniors care will contribute to the renewal of the entire health system and will improve the productivity of health care delivery across the country.
What is the CMA recommending?
The CMA recommends that the federal government provide targeted funding to support the development of a pan-Canadian seniors strategy to address the needs of the aging population.

"History is shaped by context and inherently leaves marks on the land. The landscape sets the scene for significant moments in our past and like the stories themselves, outlive us for generations. These stages become history; vital parts of our culture both now and for our future. They transform over time as the natural environment is ever shifting and changing. In the United States, it is custom practice to landmark significant historic places by memorializing the stage. This act impedes the natural process and preserves a moment in time; creating a living diorama. These preserved stages within landscapes become significant tools for knowledge and a tangible narrative we revisit.
A prime example of a memorialized stage is The Gettysburg National Military Park designated in 1895. Since designation, the park has become an enduring resource for understanding how the landscape affected the outcome of the American Civil War. When forces convened at Gettysburg in 1863, they fought through open agricultural fields, orchards, ridges, and outcrops. This was a time when muskets, bayonets, and mobile cannons were the latest in modern warfare technology; contact was close and battlefield tactics prevailed.
In the 150 years since the Battle of Gettysburg, many crucial landscape features have changed due to natural succession. By the late 20th century, the setting had dramatically transformed; it was difficult to understand how the battles unfolded due to shifts in the landscape. While dominant features were still apparent, meadows had succeeded into woodland, orchards had been removed, and new structures had been erected in the viewsheds. It is evident that landscapes are not timeless, and like ourselves, change with age.
The National Park Service recognizes the value of this park as a living diorama and in 2000 began efforts to rehabilitate the landscape of the Battle of Gettysburg. These efforts included the removal of non-historic trees in the line of fire, the replanting of historic orchards, and the removal of obstructing structures. The landscape today now paints a clearer picture of the historic events for the public to experience.
The value of The Gettysburg National Military Park is not as a natural, transformative landscape, but as a living diorama that can be successfully understood and shared. In the future it is guaranteed that the landscape will change again, and this might become an ongoing process of rediscovery. This landscape is a storyteller, and when preserved as a landmark, helps us remember the past."

WIN IT! One mama will win her choice of either the Plastic Play Food – Vegetable Basket, the Deluxe Cooking Toy Set for Kids, or the Shape Matching Wooden Puzzle. To enter, simply leave a comment on this post prior to Sunday, Mar. 23, at midnight (don’t forget to follow the rules). The winner will be announced and contacted on Monday, Mar. 24. * Winner must provide a U.S. mailing address.
* UPDATE * The winner is #5 Becca. Congratulations!
These all look like great, imaginative toys = no lights, no obnoxious sounds…how lovely! I think my boys would love the cooking toy set.
The Shapes Puzzles are too cute!
I love the products featured on SensoryEdge. I bookmarked her site for birthday and Christmas gifts. Please enter me in your contest. My 2 year old grandaughter would love the play food.
The Food Basket is great. You could use it to sort shapes, size colors not to mention teach about the different tastes, textures and values of veggies. I would also love to be able to explain to my little girl how each type of vegetable grows because she has started to show interest in how things are made/created and where they come from.
My son would love the food basket. Please enter me…Thanks!
Ohh how neat! My daughter would love the cooking set! Thanks!
Besides helping me cook, their favorite thing to do is pretend cook. My son wants to be a chef and he’s only 3!
The cooking set is so cute!
I think it would be fun to run my own business. I’m sure it’s a lot more work then I realize.
The shape puzzle would be wonderful to give to my niece who’s favorite activity lately is puzzles.
The wooden puzzle would be great. I’m trying to help my daughter recognize her letters.
My daughter would love to win the deluxe cooking set. It would be perfect for her.
I love the wooden puzzle! It is such a good educational tool!
the shape puzzle- we love doing puzzles here!
Thank you for introducing me to her site. I have been looking for a toy box for my son and she has wonderful array to choose from!
I love the little furniture, They did’nt have this for me when i was little. Just those little rocking chairs. This would be a great reading couch.
These are so cute! The food basket would be lots of fun, but the puzzle is so cool! I love how it is curved at the bottom–perfect to put on a little one’s lap (even if it will stay on the wiggly lap for only a moment!). My toddler has started getting into puzzles a lot. She is so excited when she fits the puzzle piece into the right slot. These are excellent learning tools for kids. I’d love to win, and thank you for hosting another FUN giveaway!
my son is really into puzzles these days, so he would love to be a winner. thanks!
While I would love any of these prizes… my son would especially love the food basket! Great giveaway and great store!
My one and two year old would love any this! Please enter me in the contest!
Ooh, we have a little play kitchen and food and T would LOVE the cooking set to add to her collection! She puts on her apron and cooks and bakes for us. I hope that will translate to actual cooking when she’s older; give a mama a break every so often!
Since Benjamin’s favorite movie is Ratatouille and we “make it” regularly, he would love the Deluxe Cooking Toys for kids! I would love it too to keep them both away from the stove when I’m cooking.
What a great way to help little ones learn. It’s always fun to watch my daughter play with something that I never thought would be as fascinating as she finds it. I need to do better at looking at our world from her perspective so I can provide more opportunities and objects for her to learn from.
This would make my mom (the soon to be, dietician grandmom!) verrrry happy. Teaching kids about food (esp the ones they like to refuse to eat, for no good reason) is her specialty. I can see her spending hours with our kids, playing with their vegetable basket and teaching them all about the delicious world of healthy food!

1936 was a long time ago. The Olympic Games were in Berlin, under the watchful glare of Adolf Hitler. The Games was basically a huge Nazi party rally. Jesse Owens pissed off his hosts by being outstanding. And it was also the last time the USA failed to win a single medal in the sailing events. It’s a fact, so let’s just get it out there, and acknowledge reality. Our team wanted to come here and make some history. We just had a different kind of history in mind.. Read on.

A raft of new exchanges have announced support for Tron’s imminent token swap, as the project plans its mainnet launch for mid-June.
While EOS’ ongoing token swap lags behind, Tron‘s planned migration is surging ahead thanks to the participation of leading cryptocurrency exchanges.
Tron’s mainnet launch is slated to take place between June 21st and 25th – where the project will proceed to transition from Ethereum to its own proprietary blockchain.
Read: Tron, Aeternity, and EOS: How much would you have made if you invested in April’s most profitable altcoins?
Tron’s upcoming change has been well-supported amongst cryptocurrency exchanges, with the likes of Bibox, Binance, Bitfinex, Bithumb, Bitpie, Bittrex, Bixin, Coinnest, Coinrail, Dragonex, Gate.io, Liqui, RIGHTBTC, Upbit, Zebpay supporting the move.
Those storing their funds on other exhanges will need to move their funds to take place in the token swap – notably, some major vendors such as OKEx, Koinex, Bit-Z, and Huobi have yet to announce their participation.
Tron’s impending launch has drawn compelling price movements – the cryptocurrency has surged from $0.04 USD at the start of the year to touch $0.07 USD at press time.

Why are people so unwilling to take a leap?
Why is something new so intimidating?
we can all only do the best We can do. Why not enjoy our tries and failures? Why not enjoy the life we have been given without imagined fears or hurdles? Aren’t there enough real hurdles that life throws at us any way.
I say throw yourself in, live passionately, fail wonderfully, be the real inside you with gusto.
Fear is just your imagination playing tricks on you.
Some base their self worth and value on their success or skill. If they fail at a task, they feel that they are failures on a deeper level. Some were raised that way. I was not, but I know some who were.

Americans for Peace Now sent a letter to President Obama today, urgently pointing out what should be obvious to him: “Engage NOW to get Jerusalem under control.” The full text of the letter can be found here.
Netanyahu to rein in the mayor of Jerusalem, Nir Barkat. I’ll take it further—Barkat is as big a threat to Israel’s future as any individual in the world.
Barkat, a businessman, became mayor in 2008, and many thought that as a secular Israeli, coming on the heels of a very religious mayor, he would be more pragmatic. Such has not been the case.
Barkat has gone out of his way to enflame the conflict with the Palestinians. Jerusalem is the most emotional of all the issues setting Israelis and Palestinians at odds, and the mayor of Jerusalem, therefore, has more direct power than anyone to cause flare-ups.
In my most recent article, I described Benjamin Netanyahu as having won his roll of the dice in the wake of the Israeli announcement of new Jerusalem building while Joe Biden was trying to restart the peace process.
I spoke too soon. Perhaps one can say my expectations of the Obama Administration had been lowered and so the recent developments come as a pleasant surprise. But pleasant it is, and the welcome stance from Washington is going to force some recalculations in Israel. How much of a recalculation is going to depend on how steadfast Obama can remain in the face of what is likely to be a growing backlash.
The Obama Administration may have accepted the excuse that the timing of the announcement of 1,600 new housing units in the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Ramat Shlomo was a bureaucratic foul-up. But the Israeli apology, which went out of its way to make it clear that it was only the timing that was seen to be at fault, was not sufficient for Washington.
By stressing that the only problem was the fact that the announcement came while Joe Biden was in Israel trying to start “proximity talks” between Israel and the Palestinians, Israel put the Obama Administration in a bad position. If Washington accepted the apology and let the matter go, the talks were doomed because it would have meant, to the Palestinians and the rest of the Arab world, that the US was not objecting to the expansion of a Jewish settlement in East Jerusalem. Even if they had continued, American credibility would have been so low as to make the talks pointless.

Every now and then someone asks who I am. For several years I resisted posting an autobiographic page because I had seen a large number of them, and I believe most folks don't care to see photos of someone's kids or the family pet. Of course, if these home-spun pages are for the purpose of helping the individual learn HTML, then I somewhat understand.
I first wrote these words in 1997, on the 53rd anniversary of my birth in Cleveland, Ohio. I grew up in that state, finally graduating second in my class of 31 students from Chalker High School, Southington, Ohio, in 1961, where I had been a member of the Beta Club and the National Honor Society (and attended Buckeye Boys State in 1960). Although accepted into an honors program by Kent State University, I spent the next 20 years of my life on active duty with the United States Air Force, where I learned both Russian and Czech. I am ashamed to say that I have forgotten most of my Czech, even though I completed the course at the Defense Language Institute with very high grades. I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in foreign languages from the University of Maryland. (Yes, I am just plain "Mister", not "Doctor," Cochrun).
While stationed in West Berlin, I became interested in Soviet aircraft, shining glints of which I could see in the sky over the city. From time-to-time their sonic booms nearly deafened us. So I took up modeling them in plastic from kits. As with many model builders, research into the aircraft became an avocation. In fact, I haven't built a model in years, although I still buy the kits. Someday I intend to build them all, to the high standards required for entry into the competitions held by the International Plastic Modelers Society, of which I once was a member of the U.S.A. branch, but over time and because other activities, I have allowed my membership to lapse.
After I retired from the Air Force in 1981, I went to work for the Department of Defense, where I served in various organizations. From February 1999 until July 2000, I worked under contract as an Internet Research Specialist for a major U.S. aerospace firm.
Because of my interest in languages, I was asked to obtain a list of conferences for linguists. What began as help for a few folks turned into an interesting, albeit time-consuming task that I can no longer support. I also consider myself something of a historian, concentrating of course on the Soviet/Russian aircraft, their designers, and their test pilots. I had been acting as a translator and technical advisor for George John Geiger when he passed away before he completed his multi-volume history on the aircraft. George had been a free-lance magazine writer; I believe that his last aircraft article was about the Yak-141.
From 2000 to the present time, I have been a free-lance translator of Russian into English, specializing in handwritten documents, cancer research studies, history, and so forth. For the first time in 2005, I had the opportunity to translate a book from Russian into English for the author of that book, "The Medieval Empire of the Israelites." The book takes a different look at history. Please note if you read this translation that I did NOT use the word "photographies" for the caption for the photos of the Colossi of Memnon on page 156. Someone changed it.
Since that time I have translated the Yuri Tsyp novellas written by Boris Shchiglik and "The Jews and Their Role in Our World" by Vladimir Minkov, PhD, as well as other tracts and book chapters.
I am married, have two daughters and five surviving grandchildren. Chase, named after my late father, and Aileen, are Terri's, while Owen, Aaron and Noah are Kelly's. We lost Harry, Terri's youngest, very sadly due to an undiagnosed heart condition in April 2018.
It is September 2018. I am 74 already.. Chase is now in the Marine Reserves. Aileen is divorced and has a daughter and a boy. (Yes, I am a great-grandfather). Only Noah remains to graduate high school, which will be spring of 2019. Where has the time gone?!?
Please note: I chose most of the links on this page at random. In particular, I do not endorse any commercial sites, except my own, of course. They are linked simply to give readers additional places to go in their web surfing.

A look at what was approved by the NJSIAA Executive Committee on Wednesday.
The NJSIAA Executive Committee had its monthly meeting Wednesday and these were the topics discussed and measured passed.
– Expressed an interest in raising the budget from the State Assembly to allow the NJSIAA to do random steroid testing for student-athletes year-round, instead of just during the championship round.
– Announced the creating of the Co-Op Sports Committee, which will oversee the applications of schools wishing to merge to form one team. The committee will also have the latitude of placing the merged team in the classification group it sees fit.
– Said the Senior Basketball All-Star games will be March 16th at Rider University.
– Approved a waiver requested by the Patrick School basketball program that it meet the 70 percent requirement of in-state games for eligibility in the State Tournament. There was some discussion about the lateness of the request, but the waiver was granted by a vote of 25-6.
