The Supreme Court has upheld the principle of mutuality, which states that a person cannot make profit from himself. We look at how this ruling will affect the levy of tax on receipts, such as non-occupancy charges, transfer fees, service charges, common amenity funds, etc.
common amenity funds, etc.) collected by such societies. The dispute of the tax authorities revolved around a notification dated 09.08.2001, issued under section 79A of the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act, 1960 and its applicability on such societies.
Based on this notification, the tax department contended that since these societies have received service charges/ maintenance charges in excess of 10 per cent of the non-occupancy charges, it was contrary to the law and hence, the principle of mutuality fails in such cases. The tax department held that such receipts are in the nature of business, having an element of commerciality and hence, principle of mutuality does not apply. The Income Tax Tribunal overruled the decision of the lower tax authorities, on the ground that the said notification was applicable only to cooperative societies and does not apply to commercial societies.
In this issue, the Bombay High Court, while dismissing the appeal of the tax department, ruled that the receipts of the societies are not in the nature of business income, generating profits/ surplus and therefore, not taxable. To claim the higher chunk of tax from similar issues, the tax authorities approached the SC. The SC observed that the doctrine of mutuality, is based on the theory that a person cannot make profit from himself. An amount received from a member, therefore, cannot be regarded as income of the society and treated as taxable in nature. The tax department has never challenged that the receipts of such societies have been utilised for purposes other than for the benefit of the members. The essence of the principle of mutuality, lies in the identification of the contributors and the participants, who are also the beneficiaries. Any surplus in the common fund, therefore, does not constitute income but will only be an increase in the common fund, meant to meet sudden/ future events.

It was also observed by the SC that transfer charges are generally paid by the outgoing member. If part of it is paid by the transferee, it would not partake the nature of profit or commerciality, as the amount is utilised only after the transferee is admitted as a member. The moment the transferee is included as a member, the principle of mutuality comes into picture. In the event of non-admission of such transferee, the amount is returned. The same applies for non-occupancy charges, which are levied by the society and are payable by a member, who does not occupy the premises but lets it out to a third person. The charges are, again, utilised only for the common facilities and amenities for the members of society. Similarly, any contribution to the common fund, by a member disposing of a property, is utilised for meeting sudden or regular heavy repairs, to ensure continuous and proper maintenance of the society, which ultimately accrues to the enjoyment, benefit and safety of the members.
The SC further ruled that once a member is admitted to the society, the members form a class and accordingly, the identity of such members is irrelevant and the principle of mutuality is attracted automatically. The SC, relying on a plethora of rulings, went on to conclude that there was no profit motive or sharing of profits amongst the members. The surplus, if any, was not shared amongst the members but was available for providing better facilities to the members. There was a clear identity between the participants and the contributors, to the common fund of the society.
By bringing an end to the prolonged war between such societies and the tax department, the decision of the SC would be welcomed by such societies, as going forward, they would be free from tax hassles and will be governed by the principle of mutuality, leading to all receipts from the members being tax-exempt.
Further, the SC has not specifically mentioned anything about the income received by cooperative housing societies. It is interesting to note that although the decision is restricted to non-residential societies, it should also provide shelter to residential societies, as the underlying principle of mutuality remains the same for all types of societies. Further, once the principle of mutuality is established, all the receipts shall be exempt from tax, even though the same are in excess of the quantum as specified under some other law for time being in force.

The Swedish massage is the most common and best-known type of massage in the West, and the foundation for more advanced forms of tissue manipulation. This massage stimulates circulation, flushes the circulatory system, releases tight muscles, restores range of motion, and relieves general pain due to stress.
In all Swedish massage, the therapist lubricates the skin with massage oil and performs various massage strokes, including the basic techniques for a traditional Swedish massage: effleurage, petrissage, friction, tapotement, vibration/nerve strokes, and Swedish stretching.
These movements warm up the muscle tissue, releasing tension and gradually breaking up muscle “knots” or adhered tissues, called adhesions. Swedish massage promotes relaxation, among other health benefits, but before the massage, the therapist should ask you about any injuries or other conditions that he or she should know about.
Things you would want tell a therapist include areas of tightness or pain, allergies, and conditions like pregnancy. You can also tell them upfront if you have a preference for light or firm pressure.
After the consultation, the therapist instructs you how to lie on the table—face up or face down and underneath the sheet or towel or not—and then leaves the room. He will knock or ask if you are ready before entering.
Even going to the massage therapist and getting a Swedish massage once will calm your nervous system and promote a sense of relaxation and well being, reducing anxiety and tension in the body, which has been known to help relieve depression.
If you’re experiencing muscle cramps and spasms, a Swedish massage with a focus on your problem areas can help relieve this pain. Massage therapy can also help with managing the pain from conditions such as arthritis and sciatica.
Massage is not a good idea if you have a fever, infections, inflammation, osteoporosis, and other medical conditions—at least not without consulting your doctor first—and it’s best not to get a massage if you are ill. If you have any doubts about whether or not a massage would be right for you, speak to a medical professional before booking a Swedish massage.

I first lived in Quezon City in 1975, when I transferred in first-year in high school from Don Bosco Academy in Bacolor, Pampanga.
I stayed in the USA for a month and visited seven states in 30 days. It was a whirlwind visit that started when I landed at LAX, the Los Angeles International Airport.
Batty, bratty and simply crazy.
Metrobank Foundation is reminding us to honor our favorite teachers this September.
I was only able to visit the National Art Gallery upon landing in London because I had to go to the University of Nottingham for the External Examination Board meetings.
I haven’t been to London in 25 years. The last time I was there was in 1993, when I landed at Heathrow on my way to Hawthornden Castle in Lasswade, Scotland, on an international writing fellowship.
Mute with grief at the death of essayist and historian par excellence Carmen Guerrero Nakpil, I was able to retrieve an essay I wrote about her book, Legends & Adventures.
My column on politics a fortnight ago generated a storm of email that roosted in my account for weeks.
Ten years ago, J. Neil Garcia and I edited the third volume of the landmark Ladlad 3: An Anthology of Philippine Gay Writing, published by Anvil.
In the 2000 years I’ve worked as an advocate of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights, I‘ve listened to so many stories of despair but also of joy, gladness as well as gloom.
That is the title of my new book published by Ateneo de Naga University Press. It will be launched in November this year.
June is the Pride Month for the LGBT + (lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgenders + intersex and queer), which began in the West in 1969.
I was born in Basa Air Base, Pampanga.
It has its deep roots sunk many years ago.

Miriam works as a web developer for a small digital marketing agency in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. She is also an active participant in the Ottawa WordPress Meetup group. In 2017, she joined the organizing team for WordCamp Ottawa.
Outside of her professional life, she is a karate sensei and a competitive latin ballroom dancer.
I was asked to build a website for my friend’s (now defunct) band, but with a catch – they wanted to be able to update the content by themselves. This was back in 2008. I was used to creating my own databases, forms, etc – but did not have some time. Essentially, I researched different CMS platforms, and WordPress came up first – and I fell in love with it right away.
I've love to be a part of this!

This recipe is provided for the serious baker only. To get these right might take you several tries, but they are truly one of the best breakfast pastries in the world. The only special equipment you'll need is jumbo 1-cup muffin pans and some room in the fridge. Check at your local baker's supply store for the tins before you get started. If you have any problems, e-mail us, or better yet, drive down to the Café Kevah around 9:30 one morning and have one of ours. Well, here goes, and good luck.
Whisk together in bowl. Let mixture sit 5-10 minutes in warm place until foamy.
Cut butter in 2-inch cubes. Knead the flour into butter until it's well incorporated and mixture is smooth. Sandwich between two pieces of parchment paper and shape into 10 by 12-inch rectangle. Wrap in plastic and chill in refrigerator.
Roll the chilled dough into an 18 by 12-inch rectangle on floured surface. Unwrap chilled butter and lay it on the upper two thirds of the rolled dough. Fold the lower (unbuttered) third over the center third. Bring the upper third down over center, as if you were folding a letter. Tug on the corners to make an even rectangle. Position the dough so that the short ends are at 6 and 12 o'clock. Measure it. With even pressure on the rolling pin, roll dough until it doubles in length. Roll toward open ends, not toward the folds. Fold the dough in thirds as you would a letter. Rotate 90 degrees again and roll out to double length. Seal dough in plastic and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours. Repeat procedure two more times, refrigerating 2-4 hours each time, followed by refrigerated rest of at least one hour, but preferably over night. Dough may be frozen and saved at this point. If dough is resistant to rolling, let it rest a moment. Then gently hold ends of dough and flap against table as if shaking out a towel. Relaxes dough so you don't overwork it.
If dough has chilled overnight, the dough will look like a puffy pillow. If it has rested only a short time, it will look just slightly larger than when the turns were completed. A longer rest gives the buns a more pronounced yeasty flavor. Roll out the finished dough; dust it with a sugar and spice mixture. Roll into a tight coil. Cut into individual rounds. Place round dough spirals in 1 cup, jumbo greased muffin tins. As you put the buns into muffin tins, press gently on the tops to be sure dough touches bottom of pan.
Cover and let the shaped buns rise in a warm spot for about 45 minutes, test the proof by lightly poking the side of the pastry. If indentation stays, buns are ready to bake.
Bake in preheated 350 oven for 25 minutes. Put a piece of foil on the shelf beneath to catch any drips. If the tops start to burn during baking, cover with foil. Turn buns out onto a cool baking sheet.

Pour le moment, j’ai abandonée mon recherche pour la musique Breton. J’ai trouvé deux choses, mais l’un est loin du transport publique, et l’autre est accessible seulement par autocar, et il n’y pas d’endroit pour dormir. Donc, je suis maintenant á St. Malo, une ville sur la mer à la cote du nord du Bretagne.
For the moment, I’ve given up my quest for Breton music. I found two things, but one is far from public transport, and the other is accessible only by bus, and there is nowhere to sleep. So I’m now in St. Malo, a town on the sea on the north coast of Brittany.
And as I sat down to write this, the words started coming out spontaneously in French instead of English, until I got to a word that I didn’t know and realized what I was doing. The gears are starting to turn a bit more easily, although of course still in their infancy, if I may so brazenly mix metaphors. I did have the miracle of an extended spontaneous conversation today. Sitting at a crêperie, eating une galette saucisse – a Breton buckwheat crêpe with sausage – the couple at the other end of the table asked me something that I didn’t understand. I smiled benignly, apologized, and told them that I spoke only a little French. Not dissuaded, they stayed and talked to me for twenty minutes or so. Monsieur had spent a couple of years in London, and was pretty easily able to manage my poor accent and limited vocabulary. His partner was equally patient and twice as sweet, had spent some time in South America, and knew well the displacement that comes from being a stranger in a strange land. We spoke mostly of travel and languages, but it was nonetheless meaningful human contact, which I haven’t really had in a few days. Funny how I can spend three days in the mountains without seeing a soul and feel fine, but put me in a city and I start getting lonely.
St. Malo itself boasts one of the highest tidal ranges in the world. Looking out over the ramparts at the fort this afternoon, one could easily walk across the rocks to the fort that stands on the outcrop into the sea. Walking those same ramparts tonight, the passage would be utterly impossible. The tide was in, the wind was up, and the sea crashed against the ramparts, sending spray over the tops, some 40 feet above the water. The fort was impossibly out to sea, the rocky promenade invisible beneath tens of meters of ocean.
So I think I’ll stay a couple of days in St. Malo. Its narrow winding streets, its walled interior, and its proximity to the sea appeal to me. I don’t expect to find music here, but I’m not bothered by that. The place itself has enough history and enough magic to remain interesting.
It seems like I hit Quimper (or perhaps France) at not-quite-the-right-time. I thought that finding music in Brittany would be easy; it has turned out to be kind of tricky. The first barrier has been that pretty much everything is closed Sunday and Monday. Even if my language skills were completely up to snuff, the shops aren’t open, so there aren’t many likely parties to ask. The pub culture in Ireland has given way to the café culture in France, and the cafés don’t really have sessions. Of course, I only partly came to France for the music; I mostly came for the language.
I’ve been getting some practice, in that while navigating the essentials, I don’t have much trouble booking places to stay, getting directions, riding public transport, or things of that nature. I managed to buy a pre-paid cell phone to make getting around a bit easier. But actually conversing is as difficult as I knew it would be. Once we get beyond the basics and folks try to make idle chatter with me, I have to respond with a blank stare more often than not. I’m just not there yet – I know the words, but I can’t process at conversational speed. The effect is isolating, and will no doubt wear on me over the coming weeks. The natural tendency is to stay quiet, avoid awkward conversations, which is of course exactly the wrong thing to do.
In any case, I’ve found a pub in Quimper with an Irish session on Fridays, but I almost certainly won’t stay here that long. I also found out about a couple of festivals this weekend, which I will check out if I can get to them. One is (I think) exclusively Breton, and only a few hours long. The other looks to be world music, and goes all weekend. Not sure if I can get there by public transport or if there is anywhere to stay, but I’ll look into it.
It’s boring to speak of the weather, but at the moment, I can’t help myself, as I’m reveling in it so thoroughly. After another sleepless night (the third in a row; I must get some rest in Quimper), the ferry arrived in Roscoff, about an hour before the break of dawn. It being a Sunday, nothing was open, no trains were running, so I walked along the quay until I found a boulangerie that was open early. I procured a bagette, filled my water jug from a municipal spigot near the fishing boats, and sat on a bench to watch the sun rise over the harbor.
I’ve not seen a sunrise in some time – the habits of an itinerant musician make it improbable. But I didn’t mind this one: enjoying fresh bread and fresh water, seeing the first rays illuminate the steeple of the Renaissance cathedral, the town dead silent around me, except for a few scattered fishermen untethering their boats before the tides sucked the water from the harbor. I am in France again. The gravity of it settles on me as the sun gains buoyancy.
Over the next couple of hours, I was able to watch the tides recede. Here in the relatively flat land of Brittany, the tides aren’t measured in feet, but in tens or hundreds of meters. The boats that were anchored at 6am sat in mud by noon, far from the water. While the boats became stranded, I became mobile, catching the 13h27 train to Morlaix, where I now sit on the terrace at the brasserie outside the station, absorbing magnificent sunlight and awaiting the train that will take me to Languadec and connect me to Quimper, seat of Finistère and heart of Bretange.
Good god, I’m not even off the boat yet and already I’m meeting musicians from Brittany. There was a world music band playing the cabaret, mostly Bretons. I talked to the accordionist after their set, to ask about Breton music opportunities. He told me that I’d find music in pretty much any town in Brittany, and dances pretty much every Saturday. Later in the evening, a couple were playing harp and violin together in a corner of the restaurant. I talked to them for a bit, and they gave me their phone number and told me to call tomorrow night once they were home, and they would see what they can find for me.
As expected, Ireland has conspired hard to keep me. The fiddle sprung another leak yesterday morning. Pete & Dily offered me a gig next weekend that would put 100€ in my pocket and a place to stay for the week. While busking this morning, I got invited to an old-time jam on Tuesday, and pulled in 28€ in about two hours. All of it means that I could stay in Cork for the week, and probably come out about 200€ richer by week’s end. Tempting, indeed. But I am on my way to France.
I met up with Eileen yesterday morning to trade CDs, and she gave me directions to Bertrand, the finest luthier in Cork City. He was less than impressed with our drunken glue-and-clamp job, but offered to make things right if I would leave the violin for the day. While it sabotaged my busking plans, it seemed better than having the instrument continue to fall apart. So I gave it over to Bertrand and set out to do my chores for the day.
The first order of business was to lose some weight. Eileen had brought me a cardboard box, into which went the tent, the stove, some CDs from people I had met, and all of my Ireland maps. It cost a fortune to ship it all back – only slightly less than it would have cost to replace it all. But it probably dropped nearly ten pounds from my pack weight, which was most welcome. I donated my Ireland books to the hostel, losing another couple of pounds. I feel light and mobile now. I also purchased my ferry ticket, thus making my commitment to France binding.
After a quick nap, it was back to Bertrand, who had glued the top of the violin the whole way around, thus saving the instrument from destruction. We spent a while talking about violins and music in general, and he played some CDs of his non-classical recordings. Bertrand, as it happens, is French, and has a friend who runs a café in Brittany. I now have her name and number, too. I’m still not sure where I’ll end up tomorrow night – I need to spend some time with my guidebook and contact list.
So after my morning busking, I caught the bus to the ferry port. I had expected the ferry to be something more basic – a car deck, a couple of outdoor areas, maybe a lunch counter. It is, in fact, a full-on cruise ship. Casino, cabaret, shopping center, kennel, the works. Guess I now know why the ticket costs so much. As I write this, the coast of Ireland is falling away from me, until next I return. It gets a bit easier every time, and a bit harder to leave.

Evidence-based recommendations on the Debrisoft monofilament debridement pad for use in acute or chronic wounds.
This guidance has been updated to include a review of the cost model using more recent values. New evidence and updated costs identified during the guidance review are denoted as .
NICE guidance states that this is for use in a community setting, this being primary care. OPCS-4 is only mandated for use in secondary care in the admitted patient care dataset. As this would be carried out by a nurse in community setting no OPCS-4 code would be assigned. Unless this is being considered for inpatients, the patients would need to be admitted under a consultant in order that and FCE to be generated OPCS-4 code assigned.

The granary, which is a constituent part of the Možina homestead, is located in Zavratec, in the open plateau area at the utmost eastern border of the Municipality of Idrija. Besides the granary, the homestead includes also other buildings: a big one-floor residential house, a barn, a double corn-rack, a chapel, a woodshed and a drying house for fruit. The homestead and its owners are mentioned in numerous documents, as for example cadastres and land registers from 1500 onwards. The granary was built from the autochthon stone grintavec. The one-floored building is covered with a white façade, and at the edges painted with illustrations (from the start of the 20th century) with knitted edges and a decorated wreath with the so called tufts under the jutting roof. The stone frame of the door boasts the year 1678. Above the arched cellar, which is one big place, which still serves as a place to store produce, is a 3-roomed residential floor, where up to the 1930's families of farm workers ('gostači') lived as well as a young pair, who was next in line to become in charge of the farm. From the hallway one can access a black kitchen (which is still functional), which was used for drying of meat, baking of bread, etc., as well as the 'house' with the new folk-stove and a table, which are both connected to a small room. The wooden attic, which was used to store hay, is covered by a two-eaves roof with a straw roof sheet. The storage room for grain was located in the main residential building. All the interior is original, maybe only brought from the main house, which is in many cases noted down with a date. The southern façade has a wooden aisle for drying of produce.
Granary is today set up as a museum, while its owner, the farmer, allows it to be used for various celebrations (up to 20 people) and workshops (baking of bread, bobbin-work, woollen yarn). The granary also offers home-made dry meat specialities.

Does your pocket feel too empty with that pathetically small phone in it? What you need is a bigger phone at a reasonable price. It just so happens that the Samsung Galaxy Note is on sale through eBay's Daily Deals today, and even better, it's the unlocked HSPA+ version. For the price of $519.99, you can get the device delivered to your door at no additional cost. That's even better than the last deal at $550.
With the Note spreading across the globe like a flu pandemic, it can be hard to keep track of which version of the phone is which. This device is compatible with AT&T's network in the US, but only the HSPA+ bands (specifically 850MHz and 1900MHz). The 700MHz AT&T LTE radio is not present in this edition of the device.
While you don't get 4G LTE, this Note comes with the 1.4GHz dual-core Exynos chip, which is better than the Snapdragon S3 in AT&T's Note by most measures. The bottom of the front panel has the international button layout, so no hardware search key next to that big home button. You will, however, get the same massive 5.3-inch Super AMOLED HD screen, inductive stylus, and TouchWiz'd up Android 2.3 software you've come to know and love.

Featuring Vivek Oberoi, Riteish Deshmukh in the main lead, Bank Chor failed to leave a mark at the Box Office. The film has managed to collect a Total amount of Rs 4.34 Crore so far at the ticket window. Released on Friday, 16 April, the film did a business of Rs 1.40 crore, following on Sat with Rs 1.66 crore and Sun Rs 1.28 crore. The film also features Rhea Chakraborty, Vikram Thapa, Sahil Vaid and Bhuvan Arora in pivotal roles.
Despite the film’s strong promotional strategy, the film has failed to entertain the audience. Opened at the Box Office with a collection of Rs 1.40 crore, Bank Chor shows a slight growth in its figure on day 2 of its release. However, the film again dipped on day three of its release with a collection of Rs 1.28 Crore.
Bank Chor is produced by Asish Patil and has been directed Bumpy. The film narrates the story of three men Champak, Genda and Gulab, who choose the worst day possible to rob a bank.
Talking about Riteish Deshmukh’s career graph so far here we bring to you his some of the disastrous movies which have failed to leave a mark at the Box Office. His last released Bajo also failed at the Box Office with a collection of Rs 5,41,00,000 (First Weekend). And going by Bank Chor so far figures, it won’t be wrong to say that the film is inching towards being a disaster.
This is not the first time Vivek and Riteish worked together for a film. They have earlier shared the screen in films including Masti, Grand Masti, and Great Grand Masti. While Masti and Grand Masti did an average business, Great Grand Masti proved to be a disaster, as the film got leaked before its release.

Okeechobee, Fla. – QuitDoc Foundation and the Florida Department of Health’s Tobacco Free Florida program are raising awareness about the dangers of smokeless tobacco – like chew and dip – during Through With Chew Week. This national public awareness campaign was created to reduce the use of smokeless tobacco among young people, and Tobacco Free Florida aims to help combat this deadly addiction. Through With Chew Week takes place Feb. 19-25, with the Great American Spit Out – a day when smokeless tobacco users join together to quit – on Feb. 23.
Although the youth cigarette smoking rate in Florida decreased over 50 percent between 2012 and 2016, the number of Florida high school students who reported current use of smokeless tobacco products decreased only 24.5 percent in those same four years. The disproportionately higher rate of smokeless tobacco use in rural areas is also alarming – current youth smokeless tobacco use is more than three times higher in rural communities than in non-rural areas. 4.5 percent of youth ages 11-17 in Okeechobee reported current use of smokeless tobacco products in 2016, according to the Florida Youth Tobacco Survey, 2.2 percent is the state average.
To raise awareness about the dangers of smokeless tobacco use, Okeechobee High School SWAT (students working against tobacco) Club participated in the Health and Safety Expo and interacted with attendees and educated them on smokeless tobacco. SWAT Clubs throughout Okeechobee county will be holding events during through with chew week to open more eyes to the harmful effects of smokeless tobacco products.
At least 28 cancer-causing chemicals have been identified in smokeless tobacco. Smokeless tobacco users have an 80 percent higher risk of oral cancer and a 60 percent higher risk of esophageal cancer and pancreatic cancer compared to non-users. Apart from cancer, smokeless tobacco users can develop other oral health issues, such as mouth sores, gum recession, tooth decay and permanent discoloration of teeth. The use of some types of smokeless tobacco products is also associated with an increased risk of heart disease and fatal stroke.
Currently, there is no scientific or medical evidence that proves smokeless tobacco use is an effective method to help people quit smoking. Floridians who want to quit any form of tobacco have access to the state’s free and proven-effective resources. For more information, please visit www.tobaccofreeflorida.com/quityourway.
The department’s Tobacco Free Florida campaign is a statewide cessation and prevention campaign funded by Florida’s tobacco settlement fund. Since the program began in 2007, more than 159,000 Floridians have successfully quit using one of Tobacco Free Florida's free tools and services. There are now approximately 451,000 fewer adult smokers in Florida than there was 10 years ago, and the state has saved $17.7 billion in health care costs.

Monolithic architectures are a simple and effective way to build software. Over time, competing forces often push and pull architecture in different directions, resulting in monoliths that inhibit development, rather than accelerate it. When your software reaches this point, it’s time to re-architect by breaking the monolith into smaller, more manageable components.
Serverless architecture is an alternative paradigm. Serverless (also known as Functions-as-a-Service or FaaS) breaks features into individual, lightweight functions fully managed, operated, and scaled by the platform. This approach promises to keep components small, light, and composable—all ideal software architecture traits and where monoliths falter. These characteristics offer a path away from monolithic architecture. Yet while all new technologies espouse benefits, experienced engineers know that everything has trade-offs. Re-architecting a monolithic system requires assessing those trade-offs, understanding your organization’s current state, making long-lasting technical decisions, and committing to change.
Break, Bend, or Scrap Your Monolith?
New work requires touching many different layers.
Failures in seemingly isolated areas cause failures in other areas.
Existing code cannot scale to meet current requirements.
Tests are harder to write.
It takes new engineers months to understand critical flows.
Growing team size outpaces code’s ability to support team’s needs.
If you decide to re-architect your monolith, you have three options: break the system into smaller components, bend (or massage) the system into a more workable state, or scrap and rewrite the system entirely. Scrapping and rewriting your system is not recommended. It’s a complicated approach guaranteed to grow in scope, take longer than expected, and put intense pressure on the development team.
Bending or breaking the system have higher success rates. Bending your monolith entails improving the monolith’s architecture by re-architecting internals. This approach demands careful attention to detail and ongoing focus from all engineers. Although it can be done, re-architecting to promote stronger boundaries in an ever increasing code base only goes so far.
You’ll find more happy engineers who slowly broke down their monolith systems into smaller components. This is because increasing software development performance correlates with decreasing batch sizes. In other words, smaller and more composable architectures create better software. Because smaller components yield smaller bounded contexts, they are easier to build, deploy, and operate. The “move fast and break things” mantra does not apply here. “Move slowly and fix things” does.
Serverless platforms are an ideal candidate for components broken out from a monolith, since Serverless functions fit the Single Responsibility Principle and can be composed into larger applications.
Software architecture is the craft of drawing and enforcing boundaries, and boundaries in a monolith act as layers inside the larger whole. To break a monolith into smaller components, you need to choose where you will split the system. This designated “dividing line” marks where components in your monolith become separate bounded contexts. Selecting proper dividing lines is crucial, and every monolith includes a few potential options. You’ll likely find them around code that changes too often, not at all, or along technical boundaries provided by frameworks or third-party libraries.
Dividing-line candidates have an existing API, which may be a class interface or method call, and are not highly coupled to a data store. Existing consumers may be refactored by dropping in a new implementation class or changing method signatures. Integration points with fewer consumers are easier to refactor and to use to build more refined bounded contexts on the component end.
Separating a monolith into smaller components can be useful in numerous situations, such as splitting a job queue and breaking an API out from a combined API/web application.
Here’s a common flow. A user creates an account on a web application, which processes the sign up and schedules a job to send a welcome email. Because sending the email during the HTTP request/response cycle is bad practice, it’s saved and processed asynchronously by another thread or process instead. This job is a strong candidate for splitting out of the monolith because the calling code uses an API and the individual actions lend themselves to the single responsibility principle. Common job queue implementations map a job directly to a single class or function, which maps to Serverless architecture.
Existing methods calls can be replaced with Serverless API calls. Another solution pushes messages onto a queue, such as AWS SQS, with an attached Lambda function. Either solution may improve scalability and reduce costs. A pay-per-use function replaces a process running on a VM 24/7.
Mixing a general purpose API, web experience, and mobile or front-end APIs into a monolith begs for trouble. Competing interests diverge, evolve at different rates, and enforce different requirements on lower abstraction layers. In addition, different areas may be owned by different engineering teams, leading to inconsistent code or even bottlenecks in development. If each platform requires a dedicated API, then build one. In addition, different teams can maintain the code with their own preferences.
In both cases, the team writing and building the API can deploy at its own cadence, which promotes client/server API compatibility—compared to a centrally controlled and managed API. Furthermore, teams that are unfamiliar with operations can leverage Serverless platforms, which handle the fundamentals and provide room to grow.
It’s important to consider your motivating factors when deciding what to break out from the monolith. You can choose dividing lines to curb technical debt, promote component independence, reduce cost, or fit the existing development team. Remember that each split creates another moving infrastructure piece, which needs to be deployed and hooked into metric, logging, and monitoring systems. Each piece also requires attention and maintenance throughout its lifecycle.
Monolith-based teams can grow accustomed to having coalescing responsibilities in a single place. Splitting the monolith means shifting toward distributed systems, which is an entirely different way of working. Teams sometimes become overambitious, splitting their monoliths into far too many pieces. This is a trap. changes in one component require changes in another, and business concepts leak across services. This can be avoided by moving slowly at first and splitting out only when the current situation is untenable.
While there is no specific rule about what is too big or too small to break out of the monolith, you can follow the existing interface and shared data guidelines if you’re unsure. Break the guidelines if absolutely necessary, but do this explicitly and for valuable reasons.
Breaking the monolith is more accessible than it’s ever been, as Serverless platforms are readily available and extremely robust. Splitting a monolith into smaller Serverless functions promotes long-term software growth as well as smaller batches that help teams build, ship, and run software more efficiently.
Today, more and more teams are breaking their monoliths and documenting their experiences, which others can learn from. Remember that changes to your architecture must be made meticulously and to address real problems.
In short, don’t let your monolith collapse under its own weight. Get ahead of it by breaking it into smaller pieces and start shipping.

It’s the last refuge of those who don’t have money, but still want to own a home.
The deal is simple. The bank gives you cash up front to use however you want, except as the down payment.
The price of the upfront cash is a much higher interest rate — usually the posted rate, which may be almost two percentage points higher than you might get negotiating.
It’s a costly move when considered over a five-year mortgage term. My bank says you can get $20,000 up front on a $400,000 mortgage, based on a 5% cash-back mortgage. Based on monthly payments at the current posted rate of 4.99%, that mortgage will cost you $93,422.91 in interest over five years. The same mortgage will cost you $55,288,48 in interest at 2.99% — the going rate in the discount market.
“Incentive and rebate payments (ie. cash back) should not be considered part of the down payment,” said the regulator. In cases in which people don’t use their own equity and opt for non-traditional sources as a down payment, the regulator seems to want federally regulated mortgage insurers to consider that risky and charge a larger premium.

No matter what type of outdoor exercise you enjoy, Rocky Hill east of Exeter is a popular training ground for people of all ages throughout Tulare County. It’s challenging, grading yet also scenic and at times serene. About the only thing that can ruin a run or ride up Rocky Hill is the unsightly trash riddling the roadside.
One local group of athletes has made it their mission to try and keep the country training course clean. Rocky Hill Triathlon Race Director Charles Duby organized a trash pickup along Rocky Hill Drive on June 27. This is the second time this year the group has held a pickup day because it is where they enjoy doing regular work outs and the namesake of their triathlon held annually in March in Exeter.
While the morning was a hot one, it was still very rewarding for the group to be able to contribute to the care of Rocky Hill. Duby was joined by 13 friends of the Rocky Hill Triathlon ranging in age from 3 to 60. The shocking part of the day was that David Nielsen loaded 25 bags of trash in his truck and there was still plenty more trash to find.
Rocky Hill Triathlon’s Board would like to encourage the community to take care of this hill. Please do your part to help keep it clean by encouraging others to not abuse the hill. They’d also encourage other clubs or groups to organize a trash pickup day. Exeter is lucky to have this hill in their backyard and folks near and far come to enjoy it.
The mission of the Rocky Hill Triathlon Board is to hold a local Triathlon in Exeter to benefit the Kiwanis Foundation, which has the mission to support children in our community. Rocky Hill Triathlon had their first Olympic and Sprint Triathlon on March 15, 2015. They have their second event scheduled for March 6, 2016. This year’s event raised $28,000 with contributions from the following sponsors: Joellen Wilson, Frances, James, & Jeffery Wilson, Sequoia Orange, Nielsen & Associates Insurance, Leffingwell Ag, Second Generation, LLC, Umina Brothers, Calpine Containers, Maxco Packaging, Pace, McDonalds, Mineral King Produce, Bastrire Edwards, Visalia First, KRC Safety, Decco, and Kaweah Delta Healthcare. The Rocky Hill Board is made up of the following: Charles Duby, Sequoia Orange Race Director, David Nielsen, Nielsen Insurance, Jamie Wilson, Sequoia Orange, Rachel Duby, Visalia Schools, Melanie White, Hellwig Products, Brady Johnston, Sundale Vineyards, Josh Hickey, AT&T, Kevin Martin, Maxco Packaging, and AJ Reid, Sequoia Orange.

Gambling critique is conducted on the basis of diverse games offered by the gambling business, the effectiveness of the numerous software program made use of by gambling sites, the bonus offered, payment practice, security given by websites and several other facets of gambling industry. Since there are lots of gambling websites each with appealing offers so individuals can easily get fascinated with them and decide on any online game without understanding the result of this. Gambling evaluation operates as a guide and also helps a player in selecting the right online game from the gambling sites.
A gambling overview distributed by the expert participants is very good for a novice as they point on every part of the online game. The number of on-line gambling sites is growing and more than 23 hundred gambling websites are running around the globe. Not merely the regular participants but also the newest people are getting attracted bettzone.com with the offering of those websites every day. It is not easy to pick a gambling site. So many sites produce dilemma then one can’t pick the best website or online game for themselves. In such situations a gambling overview assist an individual to seek out one or more than one gambling sites that can be trusted and fulfill the many requirements of the gamer. Gambling overview collects all the information from the legalization of wagering sites in several locations to the actual winning offers given by several sites.
Gambling critique also assists in understanding the software given by the proprietors of the sites. One can obtain the list of those software vendors which are known for the standard of their software program. These computer software providers adhere to specific procedures to offer uninterrupted services and games to their clients. Some of the recognized software package vendors are playteh, microgaming, RTG, vegas technologies and cryptoLogic. Players can easily play on those gaming websites which use these types of softwares.

There are many gambling websites which makes use of the same software program however it is the customer service which make a difference between all of them. A site with excellent customer service and very best computer software will always have a lot more number of gamers compared to the site having the same application but not good support service. Fresher can certainly learn about the customer support given by the websites by sending these folks an email or calling these via a phone. The response time taken by the customer support team of the website determines the proficiency of the website.
Another point of the gambling evaluation may be the transparency policy of the different gambling sites. A good site will usually enable its clients to go through the information that they need. The critical reviews demonstrate that one should always gamble through a certified gambling site. One more thing to think about could be the bonus which is offered approximately by almost all gambling websites for starting fresh account. One should try out to get the finest bonus offers. Whenever picking out game titles it is beneficial to select series and earn more money.
Gambling review is very important and one should go through as much assessments as possible to get proper specifics of the gambling websites and also the games provided by them.

Daniel came to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ in April of 1998 while he was in his last year at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, NJ. After spending a few years as a professional musician (upright and electric bass), Daniel felt called into the pastoral ministry. He was taken on staff at Calvary Chapel Marin under the direction of Pastor John Henry Corcoran in January of 2000.
While in the Bay Area, Daniel planted Calvary North Bay in Mill Valley, CA. In 2010, while continuing to pastor the church in Mill Valley, Daniel planted Calvary San Francisco. In 2012, Daniel turned over both churches to move to Vancouver, Washington to become the Lead Pastor at Crossroads Community Church where he presently serves. He is also the founder of the Calvary Church Planting Networkwhich helps facilitate church planters.
Daniel has a unique style of teaching that takes the timeless truth of Scripture and makes it applicable and simple for men and women of all ages, cultures, and backgrounds in today’s society. His teachings can be accessed at danielfusco.com,through iTunes podcasts, YouTube videos and at crossroadschurch.net. His popular #2MinuteMessage can be found on his Facebook page. The Jesus is Real radio ministry that features messages from Daniel is on 40+ stations across the country.
Daniel is also a gifted writer and a featured contributor to “Preaching Today.” He has published articles with Leadership Journal, pastors.com, and Calvarychapel.com. His book “Ahead of the Curve” is currently available on Amazon.com and his second book, “Honestly”, is slated to be published by NavPress, in the spring of 2016.
Daniel has taught at churches, retreats, youth rallies, leadership seminars, seminaries, college campuses, and pastor’s conferences both in the States and abroad.
Daniel’s passion for the lost keeps him playing music and drinking coffee in and around the great city of Portland where he is able to minister outside the four walls of the church.

Metaphysics special: Do we have free will?
“DID I really just decide to have fish and chips for lunch?” Humans have been wrestling with such questions for millennia. Maybe not about the fish and chips, but about whether we are truly in control or whether some external agent – be that an omnipotent god or the laws of physics – predetermines the trajectory of our lives.
Unfortunately, there are no easy answers. Who is the “I” who decided to have fish and chips? Your gut reaction might tell you that you are a conscious entity controlling your physical body. But that physical body includes the brain that generates your consciousness. There is no splitting the two.
Metaphysics special: What is consciousness?
We do know that any sense we have of being in control of our actions is, to some extent, an illusion. In particular, neuroscientist Benjamin Libet showed in the 1980s that mechanisms within the brain initiate actions long before that brain’s owner is aware of deciding to perform them.
It’s a big extrapolation to claim that all of our actions are outside our control. “Libet deals with the very short-term precursors of very simple actions,” says Patrick Haggard, a neuroscientist at University College London. Then again, even longer-term decisions and actions are the result of specific brain processes. “I assume this is also deterministic,” says Haggard.

Angeline solved the problem to figure out what I desired and gave me some great recommendations that helped me to determine precisely what I wanted. I was amazed by the excellent support and the incredible display room that was set up. Everything was very neat and well organized. I'm happy with things i got and will recommend this area to every one I understand.
I saw the great starting indication as I was traveling lower Seaside and decided to drop in to take a look. I was looking for a brand new household furniture established so I was thinking about what sort of offers they would have. The area is located in a small small strip but it's effortlessly apparent from the street. The area was created superbly. All of their furniture have a modern vibe into it. If I was decorating my location I'd of purchased everything I need came from here.

This is why you don’t get electric motors in car windows. After 20 years, they quit working. Until I find the desire to fix the window (and I might not since it is faster up and down now) the following describes how I went about rigging it up.
The motor stopped working on my driver’s side window and I needed it to go down because I have no air conditioning. After taking out the old apparatus (cutting rivets out) I decided it easier to just jam something into the opening to hold the window up. This something turned out to be an “L” shaped piece of wood and it works great.
To use this instructable you should try to focus on the overall idea and less on the details. I am operating a '91 S-10 Blazer and, unfortunately for you, you probably are not. Your car probably has an opening of some sort near the window. If not, find a hole (or make one) and just jam something in there. It needs to be tight so it doesn't fall out while driving. No fun to have a window fall open at 60 mph in a rainstorm.
The "L" block was just a scrap of wood and after I cut it to length I just cut the notch out it was done. The partially open window configuration was not intended but turns out to be a nice benefit. The pictures show the "L" block used in two configurations and the partially open window. The other option is to not use the block and let the window be full open. I figured no pictures would be necessary there.
Here is a video of the window being operated.

Now that the five months have gone by, I reflect back on all that I have learned. Here are a few of the things I have learned that made up the “magic” of this new beginning.
It was clear from the start of my internship I was going to learn a plethora of aspects of the communication and public relations industries that I hadn’t been exposed to before.
As I leave Bravo, a place where I have learned so much in the past few months, I am taking a few important life lessons for my future endeavors.
Social and graphic copy, although not the focal point of a piece, help create interest in the piece and engagement with the post through likes, retweets and shares.
When you walk up to the Bravo Harrisburg office, you feel as though you’re walking into endless opportunities and experiences.

You’ve heard about electrolytes. You know they are important and that you need them. But, do you really know what they are or why they matter? If not, this will hopefully help clear things up!
Electrolytes are electrically charged ions that help your body to balance fluids and conduct the electrical impulses for muscle and nerve function. The main electrolytes include sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium and chloride. These minerals aren’t actually considered as a direct source of energy, but they are certainly pivotal for performance as they are involved with maintaining balance, and helping to avoid muscle cramping and weakness.
You’ve likely heard of the popular electrolyte rich sports beverages, but what’s not talked about as often is the foods that contain high amounts of electrolytes. Understanding the link with electrolytes and diet is important to know if you’re planning a marathon or other lengthy physical endeavour. Yet, it’s also important because the truth is that most casual athletes get enough of the mineral salts from a varied and healthy diet, alone! That’s right. Eating plenty of these foods will likely be enough to restore and replenish lost electrolytes from physical activity for the average exerciser.
However, if you’re workouts involve losing tons of fluid on a regular basis, or, if your workout clothes are stained white from salt marks – you’ll likely want to tune in a little further to determine your true electrolyte needs. Although everyone is different, for most people it’s pretty clear to see the dehabiling effects of an electrolyte deficiency has on performance. Thankfully it’s also usually a fairly easy issue to solve. Approaching electrolyte rebalancing from both dietary and supplemental perspective is wise.
Usually, if the body is undergoing an imbalance in electrolytes it doesn’t take a long time to notice. The symptoms, which are in relation to losses with the neuromuscular function and increased blood acidity which are caused by a fluid deficit >2% of body weight can “compromise cognitive function and reduce aerobic exercise performance, making exercise seem harder” . Of course, this is not the outcome we want when trying to achieve peak performance!
More serious electrolyte imbalances may also cause changes in the heartbeat, problems with digestion, pain in the bones, and cognitive changes such as dizziness, disorientation, anxiety or confusion. Sometimes the imbalances linked to mineral loss involve other causes besides sweating (vomiting, diarrhea, certain medications, thyroid disorders, kidney disease, intestinal malabsorption) — these should always be taken seriously.
Eating a variety of healthy foods and ensuring adequate (naturally occuring) sodium in foods prior to strenuous activity is the baseline for helping to retain fluid balance, leading to unhindered performance. This, paired with the best practices listed below, along with a great electrolyte supplement (when needed) will virtually guarantee that you’re staying balanced!
The goal is to begin exercising with as close to normal electrolyte and hydration levels as possible, as a healthy level of fluids prior to exercise is the most important factor in staying balanced during and after exercise! Be sure to drink enough water so that your urine is clear and doesn’t contain an odour (note certain vitamins may skew this).
The idea is to drink when you’re thirsty and don’t overdo the hydration because you feel the need to replenish all of the lost fluids (the body will signal naturally what needs to be rehydrated based on thirst). It’s important to note that if significant dehydration occurs it may take upwards of 24-48 hours for the body to naturally recover. Eating sodium rich foods or fluids after exercise can help with fluid retention.
If undergoing strenuous endurance exercises (and sweating) for longer than 45-60 minutes, it is smart to consider supplementing with electrolytes. Some formulas will include carbs for sustained energy (i.e sports drinks), whereas some will only include electrolytes and water, or powders to be added to water. PVL Game Ade , PVL Amino Complete and Optimum Nutrition Amino Energy + Electrolytes are a few of the highly effective, well formulated products that’ll allow for enhanced fluid absorption and rehydration.
A general rule of thumb is to replenish no more than 4-6 ounces every 20 mins during the activity.
It’s clear to see that electrolytes play a very important role in peak performance. Combining the benefits of eating a well balanced balanced diet, with learning the signs and symptoms of electrolyte imbalances, along with a well formulated electrolyte replacement will all help to ensure optimal performance and recovery!

Our Illicit Drug Data Report (IDDR) informs Australia’s understanding of the illicit drug threat and focuses collective efforts by bringing together data from a wide range of sources into the one unique report.
In 2016–17, Australian police services made 113,533 national illicit drug seizures, weighing a record total of 27.4 tonnes, with a record 154,650 national illicit drug arrests. The international mail stream continues to account for the greatest proportion of the number of illicit drug detections at the Australian border. However, the importation stream accounting for the greatest proportion of the weight continues to vary across drug types and reporting periods.
The format and structure of the IDDR has changed this reporting period. This evolution provides a more concise report, while still retaining key illicit drug market information and insights.
Similar to previous reports, the 2016–17 report provides an overview of changes since the previous reporting period and also includes some longer term trends in key market indicators—including border detections, national seizures and arrests, price, purity, forensic analysis, wastewater analysis and drug user survey data—which inform and enhance our understanding of Australia’s illicit drug markets and the ability to identify changes within them.

Sweet Mother of God!!!! Can the title of this book be any more perfect?!?! It will absolutely RUIN you!!! I discovered Rachel Van Dyken a few months ago when I read her Eagle Elite Series. From the moment I finished reading Elite I knew that RVD would become one of my favorite authors. Everything about her books pull me in. Her writing style is perfection, her characters are addictive and unforgettable, and the range of emotions that she will make you feel while reading a book is out of this world! I still have to make it through one of her books without crying. I read this story seven days ago and it won't leave me! Wes and Kiersten will forever hold a place in my heart. Told in dual POV, this story will take you on a memorable journey.
It's hard to review this book without giving out major spoilers. So, I will do my best to describe how the story plays out. This is how it goes ... Girl runs into boy ... Boy lets girl touch his abs (lol!! Lucky girl!) Boy chases girl ... Girl falls hard for boy .... BAM!!!!!! My world comes crashing down :( Keep tissues near you at all times while reading RUIN, you are going to need them. I felt many different emotions while reading this book. I cried, I laughed, I swooned, I paused my reading to think about life in general, I reached for my virtual dustpan to pick up the pieces of my broken heart. I was a complete mess!!!! I read 80% of the book with a ball of emotions stuck in my throat. Their love story is one of the most beautiful and breathtaking stories I have ever read. Wes is a sweet talker and a phenomenal human being. His heart beats in unison with Kiersten's. He cares, loves and protects her with his life. She's the Queen of his heart. Both these characters deal with a difficult past. Together they fight and they overcome every obstacle that life throws their way.
What I also love about RVD is that she creates these characters that are lovable and that we can easily relate to. In Ruin we meet Wes and Kiersten, but we also get to know a few other characters that will capture your heart. Lisa, who is Kiersten's roommate and best friend will have you LOL a couple of times and you will love her for the support she gives to Kiersten when she goes through some difficult times. Then, we have Mr. Gabe Hyde ... Oh, boy!!! Get ready to meet your next two book boyfriends ladies! Wes and Gabe will have you swooning in a heartbeat! Swoon attack ALERT!!!! Emotional, intense, romantic, captivating these are few words that can describe RUIN.
Books like RUIN are the reason I love reading. I loved every single minute of it ... Ugly cry included! I highly recommend this phenomenal book!
Oh, my squeeeeee!!!! Gabe and Saylor's story completely left me speechless! I had high expectations for the second installment of the Ruin series. Once again, RVD delivers a fantastic story that is unputdownable!! From the moment I met Gabe in Ruin I knew that his story was going to hook me from the very beginning.
Gabe has been hiding from his past. A past, which brings darkness into his everyday life. He can run from it, but he can't hide forever. One minute, one wrong decision and his life is turned upside down. Trying to move on from the tragic events that haunt him is easier said than done. When Saylor enters his life he pushes her away, teasers her and leaves her confused on how he feels about her. What he never expected was to fall for Saylor. After only a few days she got under his skin. Next to her he feels alive, safe and free. But before they can find their HEA, Gabe will have to face the demons from his past if he wants a future with Saylor.
Toxic was intense, emotional and heartbreaking! Just like Ruin, it took me on a roller coaster ride of emotions. I have to admit that the Gabe that I got to know and love in Ruin was totally different in Toxic. Unlike his best friend Wes, Gabe made me want to virtually slap him a couple of times! I'm really happy that Wes was there to put him back at his place. He really got under my skin a couple of times, but I forgave him quickly when I knew why he was acting like that. Saylor was sweet, confident and intriguing. Her determination and patience helped her deal with everything that was going through Gabe's life. She helped, comforted and accepted him for the person that he was. Gabe was such a tortured hero. My heart broke for him.
All the amazing characters from Ruin are back and I could not be happier! Wes, Kiersten and Lisa are key players in this story and without their support Gabe would have never seen the light at the end of the tunnel. Wes and Gabe share a strong and powerful friendship and you can really see that these two have each other's back for life. Make sure you have plenty of tissues before you start this book. Ugly crying is always playing peek-a-boo in Rachel's books. One minute you are laughing or fanning yourself, the next you are an emotional mess! I could not have asked for a better story for Gabe and Saylor. They are perfect for each other!
Fearless is the continuation of Wes and Kiersten's story, which we meet for the first time in Ruin. This novella is exactly what I needed to fix my book hangover that Ruin and Toxic left behind. Once again we are reunited with Wes, Kiersten, Gabe, Saylor and Lisa. Like all the other books in the Ruin series we get different POV's. I'm a big fan of different POV's. I find that we connect with the characters even more. In Fearless we get to read about Wes and Kiersten, but also about Lisa. I am a nervous wreck just thinking about her story (Shame, Ruin Series #3) that will be out later on this year. From the little glimpse that we got of her POV, her story will be another emotional roller coaster. My heart is already breaking for what she lost and what haunts her. I can't wait to read all about her story.
Wes and Kiersten's beautiful love story continues to warm our hearts and they are ready to start their forever together. Fearless is fast-paced, sweet, romantic, passionate and emotional. Another great addition to the Ruin Series!
I give, Ruin/Toxic/Fearless, by Rachel Van Dyken 5 intense, phenomenal, emotional, heart-pumping, captivating, all-consuming stars! Add this series to your TBR, you won't be disappointed!!!! Get ready to be INTOXICATED!!!!
Oh lord Mikki you have me drooling and wanting to meet these men. Wonderful reviews and yep these are all on my wishlist!!
I haven't read Fearless yet but I so agree with the other two. LOVE Ruin so much and it does ruin you. Great reviews.
You will love Fearless, Valerie! It's shorter than the other two books in the series, but it's soooo good!!
Ohmygosh! You ladies have me so excite to give this series a try. I think I have the first book. Thanks got the great review!
You need to read this PHENOMENAL series!!!!

This is a new layout for the VIP range, with a big island bed and a split washroom. Specification is improved and ATC stability control now comes as standard.
The interior feels very Coachman – traditional and beautifully crafted, with light wood cabinetry and tasteful upholstery. There are drop-in carpets and one TV point.
The kitchen hasn’t been left out of the improved specification. It boasts a thoroughly modern kit list, having a new Thetford 107-litre fridge, microwave oven and four-burner hob.
The washroom door closes in two directions, including across the bedroom entrance to create an en suite. The toilet seat cover is twee, and there's little legroom when the door is closed. The offside circular shower is large and luxurious, and on the nearside is the Thetford and sink.
There's plenty of space to walk around the island bed, with his and hers cupboards and twin spotlights. Thoughtfully, the bedroom also has another TV point.
Traditional finish and superb build quality make this island bed on single axle great for couples with a car that can tow it.

Palio’s Pizza Cafe wants to wish all of our loyal customers a happy and safe Labor Day weekend! We’ve compiled a list of fun activities to help give you some creative ways to spend time with the whole family as the summer comes to an end.
Go to the park – Take a picnic with you and visit your local park. Let your kids play around while you read a book in the sun. Pack interesting foods that are favorites of your kids and let them really celebrate!
Visit a museum – Perhaps you aren’t a fan of being outside, well there are options for you too. Most of the museums in Dallas and Fort Worth have specials going over the weekend to encourage parents and kids to visit.
Game night on the patio – Perhaps you can’t spend all day together, well, you still have the evening. Order a Palio’s pizza and set up a game night for your family and friends. Play outside on the patio to really enjoy the last of summer.
Take in a movie – Another option for those who prefer the indoors, go watch a family-friendly movie with the kids. Afterwards, talk to them about the film, asking questions to get them to really explore what they saw and expand their imagination.
Remember: A Palio’s pizza pairs perfectly with all of these fun, family activities.
No matter what you choose to do this Labor Day weekend in the metroplex, just remember to have fun! The memories you make today will stay with you forever.

Design is not just about pretty lights and wallpaper, it is an enabler of social change.
Dismissing fangirls as silly groupies is not only disrespectful, it’s also toxic.
What is it about the word stripper? It’s an innocuous word with a sour aftertaste, one that has the power to incite threat and feelings of inadequacy to women everywhere.
As an artist, your studio becomes your sanctum, your safe haven for investigating your visceral truths without judgement. That is until you start having studio visits.

The fabulous strawberry, the 'Gigantella Maxim' (Fragaria x ananassa) is a medium-early variety that produces massive strawbs. Just one strawberry of 100 g can fill the palm of your hand. Fragaria x ananassa 'Gigantella Maxim' has firm, juicy flesh and a delectable flavour. Delicious when served with fresh cream! Highly recommended.

Stress is a major contributing factor to whether or not we will have a stroke.
By easing stress, Beeja meditation can make a big difference to preventing a stroke in primary or secondary form, as well as aiding recovery after a stroke.
Beeja meditation regulates our hormone production in a much more balanced fashion, which helps to calm the response of the adrenal glands, helping with prevention and recovery after a stroke.
Under the stress reaction, a number of physiological changes take place, which put pressure on the blood vessels within the brain.
Our blood flow tends to be redirected towards the thighs so that we can engage in the classic ‘fight or flight’ response. Our blood chemistry completely changes and is filled with clotting agents. Our blood pressure goes up. A lot of glucose and fats are broken down and begin floating around the system increasing our risk of atherosclerotic plaques.
However, except in the rare circumstances of life-threatening situations, our propensity to stress is a maladaptive reaction; it’s not the thighs that need this blood flow, it’s the brain.
How can Beeja meditation help with preventing a stroke?
The first way Beeja meditation helps in preventing a stroke is by preventing stress.
If you want to know how to prevent a stroke, look to stress. Meditation calms the mind, body and nervous system so that we are much less likely to respond in a stressful way when challenged. We achieve a more balanced blood flow so that no areas of brain or body starve of oxygen, nutrients or other vital ingredients.
If our blood pressure is high, which is true in the vast majority of potential stroke victims, both our systolic and diastolic blood pressure will fall towards the normal range. There is less arterial debris floating around and far fewer coagulants jeopardising the free flow of our circulation.
The second way in which meditation is of significant help is that it will reduce the damage caused by a stroke.
When it comes to how to avoid a stroke, meditation is a key preventative tool. But we don’t always have the power of hindsight. And one of the major reasons why there is so much damage after a stroke is because of the overactive adrenal response when there is a neurological crisis – the exact opposite of what we really want to happen.
As a result, the hippocampus, the mediator of our memory, spatial awareness and other important functions, becomes severely damaged.
By making us more robust and regulating our hormone production in a much more balanced fashion, meditation helps to calm the response of the adrenal glands. In addition, when we meditate, there are far fewer free radicals scavenging their way around our brain tissues, causing damage wherever they go.
Meditation also reduces the production of excitatory neurotransmitters that cause severe damage when let loose.Our cellular repair functioning also becomes optimised so any tissue damage that has been caused can be repaired much more fully than under normal conditions.
Moreover, the enhanced brain state functioning that is unique to this technique improves many areas of cognitive ability. If you are recovering from a stroke, it will increase the likelihood and speed with which you can regain your memory, learning and motor skills, so that you can begin to function more normally in your life again.
The brain is an incredible organ, and if we can give it the rest and repair time it needs through something as powerful as meditation, it can adapt rather incredibly to a wide range of neurological traumas.

With two All-Stars starters and a spot atop the Pacific Division, the Los Angeles Clippers are getting praise that's usually reserved for the other team in Los Angeles.
Kobe Bryant was asked if he could have imagined that city having four All-Star starters.
"Yeah, they were just in Laker uniforms," Bryant said. "Clippers had none, but it's been a great turnaround and Los Angeles is obviously well-represented."
The Lakers did have four All-Stars in 1998, with Shaquille O'Neal, Nick Van Exel and Eddie Jones joining Bryant.
The Clippers' rapid turnaround came after they traded for Paul in the preseason, and Miami's Dwyane Wade is happy for his friend's success.
"Hopefully they take a little while to get real, real, real, real good, but they're fast-tracking that thing over there in L.A. and I'm happy for him," Wade said.
The Clippers went into the break with a 1½-game lead over the Lakers in the division. And if the Clippers reach the NBA Finals, don't expect Bryant to be cheering for them to win.
"I'll be on an island somewhere, how about that?"
Gerald Green, the 2007 slam dunk champion, picked up another All-Star Weekend award.
Green, a former first-round pick of Boston now playing for the L.A. D-Fenders of the NBA Development League, earned MVP honors at the D-League All-Star Game after scoring 28 points in the West's 135-132 win over the East.
Billy Hunter said he is satisfied with the state of affairs at the halfway point of the compressed NBA season.
The union leader says he is waiting to see official revenue figures from the league, but officials have indicated the players will see higher numbers than expected.

Michael Morpurgo's inspiring story of Robbie, a boy in a coma – victim of a car accident. Locked inside his own head, able to hear but not move or speak, Robbie tries to keep himself from slipping ever deeper into unconsciousness. Robbie, football fan and animal lover, runs after his dog one day when he chases a cat and is hit by a car. Unconscious, but conscious, Robbie lies in hospital, unable to speak, move or eat. But he can hear; he is aware, even though his family and friends don't know this. Inside his head, we hear Robbie's thoughts; on his Mum and sister, why his parents are separated. His friends and family try desperately to reach him – even Zola, his favourite Chelsea footballer, comes to see him. And still Robbie can't 'wake up'. Until one day, against hospital rules, Dad brings Lucky into the hospital. Can Lucky bring Robbie back to life?

Home » Is Pinterest Right For Your Business?
With that in mind, you can probably tell if your business can benefit from Pinterest. If you don’t have a visual business, you’ll probably have a lot of trouble gaining traction here.
If your business does sound right for it though, then you’ll want to make sure you post creative, shareable photos. You’ll want to post images that are original, hopefully, pictures that someone in your business took (or your photographer).
It’s great to have a professional photo, but it’s better to have one that’s interesting. This particular photo catches your attention because a power outlet in a drawer is such a convenient (and unconventional) idea. It works even though it wasn’t taken by a professional photographer.
If you can capture an idea like this, you’re sure to gain a ton of repins, which increases traffic to your site.
Bland corporate photos can still work if the content is substantial (ie. you’re showcasing a really beautiful kitchen), but professional creative shots gain more attention.
If your business remodels kitchens, you’ll want to showcase a more abnormal feature (such as the above image) that housewives will drool over, and then pin!
Because Pinterest is all about value, you’ll find that giving some special attention to your photos will bring huge rewards of traffic.

On this week's show we look at the events of the Thanksgiving/Black Friday weekend.
Against the familiar backdrop of shoppers engaged in fierce competition, we saw people coming together in mutual aid and solidarity.
We look at Occupiers feeding Hurricane Sandy survivors on Thanksgiving, giving away goods on Black Friday, and joining Wal-Mart workers on picket lines around the nation.
We also have a special report from California, where once again the interests of education are at odds with those of Wall Street.

Mfg's Desc.: For 10 size airplanes.
I reject glow displacement descriptions as so overly narrow in describing the possible uses for a motor as to be almost entirely meaningless. Anybody with much glow engine experience will be able to review my calculated chart below and see a range from about a .10 size motor into .30 power useful even in some .40 size craft. Displacement comparisons may comfort customers enough to sell motors but it does nothing to educate an end user in the area of understanding electric power systems. What is the point of buying something you don't really know how to use? I appreciate it is a difficult situation manufacturers are in with so many customers being so stubbornly intellectually lazy and wishing to have it all without understanding anything.
My charts should help provide a more complete picture of the wide range of models where this motor may be applied. The O.S. Motors are of excellent quality. Hopefully they will remain a long term provider and inovator in RC E-Power Systems. However, I grade the manufactures supplied prop and use chart a solid F-.
Estimates based on manufacturers provided constants using E-Calc. Kokam 3200 used as trial cell in calculations. Actual performance may vary depending on components used, accuracy of data as provided by manufacturer, quality of ESC, weather and many other variables.

Welcome to this Astra Militarum Glossary! A glossary of terms built up during my Getting Started with the Astra Militarum series.
This Astra Militarum Glossary will gradually be populated as the Astra Militarum Getting Started series is published. Words in bold below are terms that are contained in the Glossary.
If you think I got something wrong or missed an important term then please get in touch via; Facebook, Twitter, Reddit or email me at trooper@ the domain of this blog.
The act of creating a list of units and their upgrades to play a game of Warhammer 40,000 with. This can be done on paper or with an app such as BattleScribe.
Mankind’s main fighting force in Warhammer 40,000. Billions of people are drafted into the Asta Militarum each day and billions day each day.
The Astra Militarum used to be called the Imperial Guard. They are the same thing. It is generally agreed that Games Workshop changed the name because Astra Militarum is their name and therefore can be copyrighted. Imperial Guard is too generic.
Each model, weapon, monster, vehicle, etc in Warhammer 40,000 has a points value. In Matched Play, you and your opponent set a points limit and you both Build a List up to, but not over, that points limit.
The points values are contained within each army’s Codex.
Each unit is assigned a Power Level. The Power Level for a unit is the same if they take loads of extra weapons and gear or if they take no extras. This simplifies the List Building process as you do not need to add up every single model and weapon’s Points value.
Power Levels are more often used in Narrative Play and Open Play.
Matched Play aims to give both sides an equal chance of victory. It does it’s best to make the two sides equal.
Narrative Play puts more emphasis on telling a story than the other two methods.
Open Play is easy to start, you need no prior planning and you can just throw models onto the table and play.
Each army has its own Codex, it is a book or e-book, which contains all the rules and stats for that army. This is the Astra Militarum Codex.
A Codex does not contain the Warhammer 40,000 rules.
Orders a specific ability for the Astra Militarum, no other force can use orders. Orders are used Creed, Platoon and Company Commanders. They are extra benefits given to your Astra Militarum Infantry units. For example, allowing an infantry to re-roll ones to hit or allowing them to re-roll ones to wound.
These are extra pieces war gear that Characters can take. Each force gets one for free. You can take more by spending Command Points and using your forces specific Stratagem that allows you to take more Relics. It’s usually one extra Relic for 1CP or 2 extra Relics for 3CP.
Each Relic can only be taken once – they are unique pieces of war gear.
They usually replace a weapon or give the Character a new special ability. E.g. allow an officer to issue an additional order to a unit.
A regular 6 sided dice.
A dice that has 3 outcomes on it; 1, 2 and 3.
A D6 can be used as a D3. Roll a 1 or 2 that is 1, roll a 3 or a 4 that is 2 and if you roll a 5 or a 6 that is 3.
Or more simply, roll a D6, half it, round up. That is your D3 result.
The Warhammer 40,000 Basic Rulebook contains several missions. Many are specific to Matched Play. The Missions tell you and your opponent how to set up the battlefield, special rules for the mission and the victory conditions for the battle. They are good and are a welcome change to KILL EACH OTHER!
Chapter Approved is an additional book which is optional. It’s not specific to the Astra Militarum, it’s for the whole of Warhammer 40,000. It’s meant to fix a few rules and abilities that get abused, clarify some grey areas and add new rules where there were none before. It gets used in tournaments and by a lot of regular players too.
Chapter Approved also contains extra Missions.
The Warhammer 40,000 basic rules are free – 40K Basic Rules. But the Basic Rulebook (BRB) contains more detailed rules as well as Missions.
The Basic Rulebook (BRB) contains all the rules you need to wage war in Warhammer 40,000. It contains extra rules as well as missions and much more. This is the Warhammer 40K Basic Rulebook.
An extra ability that an army can use during a battle. Stratagems cost Command Points.
A Detachment is a group of units. Each Detachment requires a minimum number of units from a specific Battlefield Role to be valid. They also have a maximum too for each Battlefield Role.
Each detachment can give your force Command Points. Some detachments give zero or take one Command Point away. While some give 5 Command Points or even 12!
Command Points are spent on Stratagems during a battle.
The commanders of an army used to buff and improve your other units like a Lord Commissar.
Tanks or Artillery that dish out a lot of damage, such as the Leman Russ or Basilisk.
The staple of a lot of forces, cheap and numerous – Guardsmen.
Specialised troops that are often tough and/or have the ability to crush the enemy with firepower, like the trusty Bullgryns.
Quick units that usually do a very specific task very well, like the Sentinel.
Units used to transport other units around the battlefield, such as a Chimera or a Taurox. These are limited to the number of other units. E.g. you can’t take a 4 Chimeras if you only have 2 other units in your force.
Flying war machines such as the Valkyrie or Vulture.
Massive war machines such as Baneblades or Knights.
This is a major part of the hobby for some people. In short, it’s taking two or more models and making them your own. For example this monster Ork Leman Russ by @steve_neilson.
If you want something else covered here, have a question or just want to say hello then please do. You can do so via, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit or email me at trooper@ the domain of this blog.

Family means no one gets left behind… or forgotten.
Remember this quote from Lilo & Stitch? Everytime I read it, I hear Stitch’s voice in my head; everytime I say it, I sound (kind of) like Stitch. Oh, dear.
Becoming a family is a process – even when you are born to it. You get to know each other, you grow and change, you learn to embrace that change (or not), you choose your battles, you are there for each other, you make it through the hard times — and there are hard times — and then you look up one day and realise that you are laughing together again.
This can happen within the family you are born to, with your life partner, with or without children, with friends you choose and find yourself knowing for decades. The people you share this kind of time with will enrich your life. These people challenge us — they see what we might try to hide — and they support us when we feel raw and vulnerable. These are also the people we want to celebrate with, share our joy and triumphs with.
Posts with the ohana tag/category are the stories of our family.

Those people who are trapped in addiction may have plenty of justifications for their behavior. To other people these explanations are likely to sound illogical, but to the addict such ideas make perfect sense. Even if the individual accepts that their current life is far from perfect they will still argue that it is better than a life in recovery. This is because they associate sober living with deprivation and boredom. It is this misunderstanding about the reality of recovery that encourages them to stay trapped in their misery.
Deprivation can be defined as an act or instance of depriving or loss. Relative depravation occurs when people are not allowed something that they believe they are entitled to. For example, if somebody who likes to drink alcohol is not allowed to they are likely to feel deprived of it.
When people are caught up in the midst of addiction they may view life without alcohol or drugs as a type of deprivation. In their view it is substance abuse that provides pleasure and makes life worth living. If they no longer have their drug of choice it may appear to them that life will have no meaning. They will often view life in recovery as being similar to serving a prison sentence where the sober person always feels like they are being deprived of the one thing they want. This view of sobriety is a myth but the addict is able to use cognitive dissonance and delusional thinking to justify it.
* They can change their behavior so that it better reflects their thoughts.
* They can change their thoughts to better suit their behavior.
* They can adapt new thoughts that will explain away the cognitive dissonance.
* Changing their behavior so that they no longer abuse alcohol or drugs – they enter recovery.
* They convince themselves that life in recovery is not better than the life of the addict.
* They might adopt the idea that substance abuse is bad for most people but that they are a special case and will not suffer the same consequences.
* Alcohol and drugs make people more creative.
* Those people who do not use alcohol or drugs are miserable most of the time.
* Life is completely meaningless so people might as well enjoy themselves with alcohol or drugs.
* The professionals who work in the addiction recovery industry are just charlatans.
* Those people who try to give up an addiction will relapse eventually because they are so miserable.
* Sober living is boring and lacks meaning – it is like a prison sentence with no chance of parole.
* Those people who are in recovery spend all their time missing alcohol or drugs.
* If people give up substance abuse they will never laugh again or feel happy. Alcohol and drugs means that life is always unpredictable and it encourages people to behave spontaneously.
* Substance abuse is a form of rebellion that is to be admired.
* All the interesting people in the world use alcohol and drugs.
* Those people who suggest giving up alcohol and drug use are just killjoys. They are miserable people who do not like to see anyone else happy.
* The problem is not substance abuse but society’s attitude to such behavior. The individual is just trying to enjoy life and it is nobody else’s business.
* The dangers of alcohol and drug abuse are grossly exaggerated so that people in the recovery movement can make money.
* Groups like Alcoholics Anonymous are nothing more than a cult.
Getting sober can be like waking up from a nightmare. The individual should notice improvements in their life within the first few weeks, and by the time they become established in sobriety their life is often unrecognizable compared with how it was before. Rather than feeling deprived the individual feels like they have been released from hell. They may be shocked to realize just how deluded there were in the midst of their addiction.
When people first become sober they are likely to have times when they miss alcohol or drugs. It is usually easy for them to dismiss such thoughts because the individual will remember how much addiction has destroyed their life. Over time these thoughts about the addictive substance occur less frequently. Once people have been sober for a couple of years they may go months without even thinking about alcohol or drugs. In no way do they feel that they are living a deprived life because the complete opposite is true.
* The individual is sober and has the time to explore new hobbies and interests. These can bring a great deal of satisfaction and reward.
* When people are sober for a bit of time they realize that the happiness they experienced in addiction wasn’t really happiness at all. It was a dim imitation of the pure joy they get to experience in sobriety.
* People can become far more creative when they are sober than when in the midst of addiction. A classic example of this would be Jackson Pollock who created almost all his notable work during a two year sober period – when he relapsed back to addiction he lost his talent.
* When people are sober they can develop deep and meaningful relationships that just do not occur between addicts.
* Sober people find it easier to do the right thing in life. Not only does that mean that they tend to get better results but they also feel less guilt.
* Sober living tends to be anything but boring – it is common for people in recovery to complain that there is not enough hours in the day to do all the things they want to do.
* Many of those who become sober will embark on a spiritual path. This gives their life new meaning and purpose that is far more rewarding than anything they found in addiction.
* People in recovery get to enjoy better physical and mental health. Some of them are able to almost completely undo the previous damage to their bodies and become examples of the benefits of clean living.
* One joy of recovery is that the individual gets to achieve their dreams. The tools that they acquired to beat addiction can also be used to help them find more success in life.
* Many addicts manage to win back the respect of their family and friends. They may even become highly respected in their community.
* Once people become sober they can begin rebuilding their career or try something different – many go on to be successful in their line of work.
* Probably the most important joy of recovery is peace of mind. Those who have developed emotional sobriety enjoy an inner peace much of the time.
* When people are sober they can be of great benefit to other people. This type of selfless action can also bring great joy and inner peace.
* Those who have built a strong sobriety no longer have a nagging feeling that they have wasted their life. They can look back and feel proud about their achievements in life.
* The individual in recovery can look other people in the eye and not feel the slightest shame. This is not something that most addicts can do.

The VitaGlide cardio exercise device was first invented in the late 90s and has recently undergone an intensive re-design.
Who should use VitaGlide and what can be achieved?
Vitaglide is an effective rehabilitation treatment, designed to assist upper body physical therapy patients. There are two upper-body exercise settings which are similar to a rowing and cross-country skiing motion. The settings are ideal for strengthening the musculature of the upper body, shoulder orbit, and core. Users can choose the level of independent resistance for each arm.
The exercise device gets more muscle groups involved, resulting in a more effective and efficient workout. Regular users have reported increased core strength, improved cardio workout, and many have achieved a greater range of motion.
No exercise regime is complete without an upper-body workout. The VitaGlide has a patented 2-way motion. It’s more efficient with complete movements, its the perfect workout machine to help you meet your goals. It is affordable and durable enough for public gyms.
Those seeking a powerful upper body workout.
No exercise regime is complete without an upper-body workout. VitaGlide is the perfect workout machine to help you meet your goals.

Use of per collector http proxy settings for PropertySource scripts using Groovy HTTP helper methods.
I did however find a workaround, but it involves reading in the agent.conf from the local filesystem on the collector itself to get the proxy information , not ideal but works for testing.
I have created a Groovy script based PropertySource, that uses a REST call to contact an external site using the included HTTP helper methods in order to fill some information fields. This works fine in itself. The issue I have is the need to set the proxy details on the object after it is instantiated in the script. As far as I know, the collector properties/settings are not exposed in any way to a scripted PropertySource, despite the script running locally on the collector. Nor does the HTTP connection use the existing proxy as set on the collector. Unless I am missing something, it seems exceptionally convoluted to get those details, and then propagate them into property fields for all devices on that collector. to then be able to reference them properly inside the script. Is there any way to call the equivalent of getHostProps(), but for the collector properties? This would also be useful in cases of say, independent customer sites that use separate API keys for the same script.

Antonio and I were still learning how to travel in 2007. We knew we wanted to travel the world, and we already had a feeling that we were not huge fans of hotels, even “luxury” ones. This was our first attempt at renting a vacation property. We were bringing our mothers and knew we’d need a large place with a minimum of two bedrooms. We also wanted to have a kitchen. We got a lot more than that.
We did quite a bit of searching online and finally settled on Cabarete Beach Houses. The property is very nice. They offer daily maids to clean your house (convenient when you cook like we do) and there are security guards throughout the property (this is pretty important in the area). The property has some pretty sweet amenities, it is on the beach (which can get a little rough sometimes), a pool & jacuzzi, tennis courts (too hot for us to use when we went), airport pick up (super convenient). Nanny estates even did some shopping for us so that our fridges would be full when we arrived. They have since added more perks such as nannies, massages, etc…At the time we paid $608 US dollars for a 7-day stay. Not bad at all. Our house had three floors and was incredibly comfortable.
Cabarete has its ups and downs.
The beaches are marked by white sands and blue waters. There are caves for you to go spelunking (I thought it was a great idea until I stepped on a red ant hill and was unable to walk for 2 days). There is a strip with restaurants that offer everything from Italian, to Thai, to Dominican. You’ll be sitting on the beach catching some rays when suddenly a bunch of horses will stroll happily in front of you. If you kite surf…you’re going to love this place. At dinner time, trios will sing you boleros for just a few bucks making a Summer night magical.
There is quite a bit of poverty. Every day you will get sad looking children either trying to sell you something you don’t need (like a child asking to shine your sneakers), or those who beg…and then run over to an adult to give them their money. There are starving animals and stray dogs everywhere as soon as you walk past anywhere that is commercial.
There is definitely a bittersweet feeling to Cabarete (and DR in general). We drove to the next town over to check out a nightclub with our moms and it turned out to be a brothel…if you ever meet me in person, remind me to tell you the story.
Would I go back to Cabarete? Yes, you are probably wondering why.
The country is growing. Sure, there’s some pretty obvious poverty, but the majority of people work really hard to show the best they have to offer. They are friendly and sweet.
Price – DR is still a steal, maybe not as cheap as when I last went, but if you’re on a tight budget, you can still have a lovely time.
Do not stay in one of those crappy all-inclusive resorts. That’s boring and safe. Be a traveler, not a tourist. If you just want to hang out with a bunch of Americans and Germans in the pool, do yourself a favor and stay in the US. If you go to DR, find a place to stay and meet some people. You will be surprised at how willing they are to open their doors and homes to you. Suddenly you’ll have an abuela inviting you over for dinner and cooking you her specialty. She may not have much to share, but she will share her work and family heritage. This is where travel becomes lovely. If you’ve never done this, give it a try. You will shed your tourist skin and become a traveler forever.
How to get there: Fly to Puerto Plata airport. It takes about 3 1/2 hours from NYC if you go non stop and if you do your research you can get some pretty affordable flights. Once you arrive, you will have to pay $10 to get in. You can take a taxi, but I recommend that wherever you are staying has someone come to get you. If you do take a taxi, it will cost you about $35 for the trip and be in Cabarete in roughly 20 minutes.
How to get around: Do not take public transportation. This is you begging to have your things stolen. Rent a car (I recommend a Jeep or something sturdy). Cabarete itself is quite small, so you can walk. I took the beach route on a daily basis. I recommend you do not walk alone at night.
El Choco Caves – A great experience for everyone but me (as mentioned above I was attacked by evil red ants). There are some easy caves to explore. The moms & Antonio loved the caves. They even got to swim in fresh cool cave water when they were done. To get there you walk through El Choco National park where there is plenty of nature.
Beaches: Cabarete beach is lovely. You can definitely swim in the water, it is not too rough. It is quite popular with wind surfers (so much fun to watch). As you saw in the pictures above, there are wild horses and tons of unexpected surprises on the beach.
Restaurants: There are tons of restaurants right on Cabarete beach. They are all next to one another, making it easy for you to find a place to eat. Most of them were pretty good. Celina’s and Onno were my favorites.
Casinos: I don’t gamble. I do “when in Rome”, but I think it a waste of money. That being said, if you go to the local casino, instead of free drinks, you get free sancocho…and it is good. Totally worth a little gambling for this delicious soup. The Casino is kinda ghetto, but whatevs, great soup.
Sports: I’m not the most sporty person out there, but if you are, Cabarete is a perfect spot for you. Windsurfing, cascading, hiking, horseback riding, canyoning, mountain biking, they’ve got it all.
Have questions about Cabarete Dominican Republic? Leave them in the comments.
Thank you for mentioning us on your travel blog! We are happy you have had a great time and liked our houses!
Perhaps we will be seeing you again some day!
So glad to hear you are both there. We had a lovely time, and something tells me you will see us sooner than you think. Thanks again for the amazing service.
Absolutely right. I’m looking forward to a return visit to DR…I’m just not one to cramp in 5 locations in 7 days. I much prefer to do a long term stay in one place. This way you get to truly get to know it and its people instead of just a glimpse. I’m not a fan of all inclusives. Those are for people who vacation, not people who travel.

I love your site I have purchased three of your Technology series. I noticed [in the K-6 textbooks] you talk about using protopage – how do you let your students use it without them doing anything to what is on the page.
A: I love my protopage internet start page. I don’t mind if my students (I teach K-8) edit the page (within reason). I was worried at first so I put blocks there specifically for comments, wall writing, doodling. I tried Wall Wisher, which didn’t work well. I added a hamster and a pet dog that students can play with, feed, virtually cuddle. In some of the widgets (such as the calculator), the skins can be changed. That’s fine. I like that students personalize their stations even though the next class in 45 minutes might make changes. If they take ownership of the computer, they’ll take better care of it and enjoy the class more. I used to let them add wallpapers until the IT department locked us out.
That said, to do any serious formatting requires a log in as Admin (like to add widgets or change the colors). That’s reserved for me. Also, I don’t give students much time to play. We’re busy. They have to come in during recess or lunch to have a block of time. I have more problems with them futzing with the icons on the desktop and turning the screen on its side than fooling around with the start page. Techie kids are a precocious bunch!
My suggestion if you’re thinking of using Protopage: Don’t worry about formatting. It’ll likely work out fine.

Managing a huge and active guest blogging community is exciting. I never stop discovering new and new things.
In fact, the scam I am going to share today isn’t new at all.
It’s been around for ages, but considering I’ve been involved in the content marketing for quite some time and have never seen this before, I’ve figured it may be new to you as well.
If you accept guest articles or outsource content creation, you’ll be as surprised to hear about this scam as I was. It’s almost impossible to catch!
Do these pieces look exactly the same?
Note: If you select the source code in the second column and click “View Selection Source”, you are most likely to be unable to see the wicked symbols even there (the above screenshots are made from the HTML editor).
Like Google, no duplicate content checker will ever recognize that line of text as a copy from the existing text.
How the Heck Could This Happen?
How Do I Detect the Scam?
How Can the “Alien” Characters Be Stripped?
Simple. The text from the second column contains Cyrillic character “?” which looks exactly the same as the English “o” but, taken from another language, it forms a new word.
WYSIWYG editor – Our very-much-loved WordPress Editor not only fails to strip the alien characters (which is quite natural as who knows what they should be converted into), but also fails to signal about them in any way (it turns the corresponding code into normally-looking characters). So if you are using WordPress and copy-paste the text from the second column into the “Visual” editor, you won’t notice anything. This makes the scam even more dangerous and easier to go away with. My WordPress even didn’t highlight the words with foreign characters as errors.
The best advice here: search Google! Even if the article you are going to publish passes Copyscape, grab a long phrase from it and search for the exact match to make sure Google understands it.
These guys are clever – pitty they can’t find a better outlet for their intelligence.
Good thing I got this heads up quite early. Been wondering how some of obviously copied articles still come up clean on plagiarism checks. Will look out for this one from now on.
Nice catch,Ann! This is a new one to me. As Keith said, what a shame they can’t put their brain to better use.
I’d expect that Google would be able to easily detect such tricks, if they consider it worthy of their attention. Since there’s little chance of any organic SEO benefit from such tactics, though, I suspect the most likely purpose is to bilk buyers of articles. Though dropping a link on someone else’s blog is certainly a possibility.
@Doc, Google is already best at identifying the scam (this is why I encourage everyone to search Google). But many people buying content and accepting guest posts may be unaware of the fact they are publishing nonsense! Unless they search Google, they will never be able to find out.
And you’d be surprised how well the scam is spread already. Several people in the thread I linked to above said, they had come across such scammers once or twice!
So the flip side is, someone else could be ripping off your content, selling it to the unsuspecting, and making it that much harder for you to find the instances of copyright violation (which it still IS). GREAT.
Its an occupational hazard this copying menace, and the sooner a solution is found to eradicate it, the better.
Wow, never thought about it. There are many languages and many letters which could be mixed this way.
Wow. This is really shady! Thank you for posting it.
Awesome, Greg! I have update the article to include your plugin!
You should add that you can’t copy and paste it into google because then you’re pasting the foreign characters. To check if its original, manually type 5-6 of the words all in quotations for the exact phrase search. Chances are, it won’t be original (at least the sources it was created from) but if it’s intended for SEO as well, that’s not even the issue. The bigger issue is it’s probably going to have negative value to google because to a computer (or word processor), it’s a mashup of nonsense characters from different languages with contain no real keywords or even words at all.
And yes I just got scammed by this on a Fiverr gig. Going to see what can be done about it.
Thank you Ann for providing the details of content writing scams that occur on sites like Fiverr. I myself was scammed once. Thanks again for creating awareness of these unethical practices.
Thanks for saving me from. a massive disaster which is coming. I am getting lots of guest post request and I think most of the guest post writer is following this is scam way to generate more article. Thanks again for giving solutions by which I can solve the alien coding issue.

“[Norris] argued that people are not taking the issue seriously when there is evidence pointing to the government as having already used chemtrails.
“Geoengineering is the artificial modification of Earth’s climate systems through two primary technologies: Solar Radiation Management, or SRM, and Carbon Dioxide Removal, or CDR.
Informed citizens know that carbon is essential to life and that the entire global warming/climate change excuse to control carbon is a ploy to control all life on earth. Other informed sources discuss chemtrials as a mechanism to drop nano bio applications for mind control. Whether barium, aluminum, sulfates, vaccines or bio apps, it’s time to look up and stop this evil destroying our skies and our food supply.

When someone reads a newspaper, he (or she) reads every line. It is a relaxed activity.
On the other hand, when someone reads an article online, he (or she) skims through. The attention span is minute during online reading.
So there’s no space for long paragraphs or complex words when you write online. It demands simplicity. A basic thing to remember is to write as if you’re talking.
When you write for the web, you need to write as if you’re having a conversation with the reader. And during the conversation, you need to engage, persuade and educate the reader as well.
What is it you’re going to write about?
Will it be a promotional piece or an informational one? You need to know the purpose of your content before you begin working on it.
Tick off every step as you move on. It’s simple but effective in ensuring you write an effective web copy.
Now that you know what you have to do, you should start doing the research for your audience.
If you have no one to talk to, how will you have a conversation? Doing audience research is a deep yet fun process.
You’ll need to know who you’re talking to. What are their common interests? What are their likes and dislikes?
Knowing the ‘person’ on the other end will help you write better copy. The chances of engaging the reader will increase automatically when you know them well.
How to find out about them?
First, recognize who’ll be in your audience. Their age, marital status, profession and other basic information will help you sort out your audience from the rest of the internet.
You will need to contact the people who are in your audience. Do interviews, visit forums or social media platforms. Search about relevant topics in their interests and read.
You’ll need to talk in the language your audience uses. That’s why going where they hang out is the best thing you can do.
What is the use of writing great content if no one can find it?
To make sure your content reaches the audience it intends to, you should use SEO. Perform keyword research and keep them in mind as you write.
Don’t stuff your content with keywords. They should come in your content naturally. For links, provide credible and trusted links which you’d like to visit yourself.
Your research of the target audience will help you in this regard. The keywords will influence your headings and topics.
You’ll have to determine the structure of your copy before you start writing. Why?
Because it helps in keeping your thought process linear while ensuring your content is according to the topic.
If you’re writing a recipe for a cake, then you won’t want to start discussing the history of bread, right?
It’s easy to get lost in the train of thought while writing a copy. Determining a structure will ensure such a mistake doesn’t happen. The structure of web content is vital for its success.
Copyblogger says that around 80% people click on an article because of its headline. That means, only 1/5th of the readers visit a page because of the underlying content.
Your headline gives the readers a glimpse of what’s inside. It’s the teaser of your content and the reach of your content depends mostly on it.
You should keep the headline simple, curious and exciting. Take inspiration from the headlines of magazines (Forbes, Fortune, Vogue, etc.).
See how they entice the readers while capturing their attention.
While the headline ensures that people visit your page, the sub-headings make sure that the people stay.
People skim online. And when they’re skimming, they don’t have time to read every line.
That’s where your sub-headings come. They inform the reader of what’s in the content. They have to be informative and connected to the content.
Many readers tend to scroll through an article only to see what it’s about. The sub-headings will give that information.
What differentiates you from the rest of them?
Your brand voice. It is the most important part of any online content. Every brand has a personality (just like you) and your brand voice expresses this personality.
It not only helps in distinguishing your brand but it also helps you in connecting with your audience. It makes the readers realize that there’s a person on the other end as well.
Using the right tone with your voice will help you stay relevant and build trust. It makes people realize that a human has written the content and not a robot.
Understand your brand and yourself. How do you talk? If your brand had a living mascot, how would it behave? Casually or formally? Smartly or funnily?
Your voice shows your brand’s (and your) attitude. That’s why it is able to make you stand apart from the rest of the market.
Don’t hit the publish button!
Before you do, you need to edit the article. Editing the content is just as important as writing it. Why?
Because it rectifies errors, spots the weak points, and refines your copy.
If possible, you should sleep on it. Re-visit the content after a night’s sleep and finding errors will be easier. When someone publishes unfinished content, it harms the brand because people realize that the writer doesn’t care.
You’ll find areas to improve, remove and add when you will edit the article. You can ask someone else to read the content as well. Their new perspective might help you find new areas for improvements.

UK PM May faces heavy pressure to step down to save Brexit by GREGORY KATZ The Associated Press | March 25, 2019 at 4:00 a.m.
The Associated Press MEDIA CONFERENCE: British Prime Minister Theresa May leaves after addressing a media conference at an EU summit in Brussels, Friday. Worn down by three years of indecision in London, EU leaders on Thursday were grudgingly leaning toward giving the U.K. more time to ease itself out of the block.
LONDON -- Embattled Prime Minister Theresa May was scrambling Sunday to win over adversaries to her Brexit withdrawal plan as key Cabinet ministers denied media reports that they were plotting to oust her.
The confrontation may come to a head at a Cabinet session expected today.
Despite headlines about a Cabinet coup, there was no indication from Downing Street on Sunday that a resignation was near. Two of the people mentioned as possible successors -- Cabinet Office Minister David Lidington and Treasury chief Philip Hammond -- expressed strong support for May.

The most important reason for learning about the morality of the Prophet (saas), and how he behaved under particular conditions, is to take these as examples in order to try to emulate him in godliness, uprightness, purity of faith, modesty, cleanliness and belief. Most individuals take other people as their role models, emulate their behavior and try to talk and act like them. However, it is the Prophet (saas), and the other prophets who acted and believed like him, who ought to be followed.
Supporting the Prophet Muhammad PBUH at the present time is only possible by abiding by the Qur’an and his Sunnah, by making the same efforts as he did to spread the morality of the Qur’an throughout the world, and by doing all in one’s power to be like him. Allah will help those who do so in the same way that He helped the Prophet (saas, PBUH) He will ease their task and grant them success where they would have never expected it. Though, the most important reason for attempting to resemble the Prophet (saas, PBUH) is to win our Lord’s good pleasure, mercy and Paradise.

Let’s Go Sky Diving – Indoors?
Depending on what type of person you are, if someone invited you to go skydiving, you might be be quite enthusiastic about it, or start immediately shaking in your boots. Skydiving is definitely a thrill seeker’s sport, and appeals mostly to those who have no problem jumping out of a moving plane. What about the rest of us though? Is there no compromise between being a risk taker and being an adrenaline junkie, all at the same time?
There is in fact, and it’s called indoor sky diving.
How do you go skydiving indoors?
First off, no, they don’t have to fit the plane inside of some huge building. Actually, with indoor sky diving, there’s no plane at all. There’s not even any real diving involved, and in most cases, no sky either. Indoor sky diving takes place in a vertical wind tunnel. These tunnels were originally developed for aerodynamic research, but given human nature, someone at some point couldn’t resist getting inside of one without aerodynamic research in mind, just to see what would happen. That person must have really enjoyed himself in there, because now the most high profile vertical wind tunnels are known simply as indoor sky diving facilities, and can be a great way to spend an afternoon.
There are many different types of vertical wind tunnels, with some being very permanent structures, while others can be temporary, inflatable structures to keep the wind and the flier contained inside. Whether permanent or temporary though, there will always be a large, powerful fan at the bottom, used to propel air upwards at about 120 mph (195 km/h). This force is enough to keep a full grown adult suspended in the air, above the fan blades, and can mimic the feeling of flying, which is the sensation skydivers describe.
These vertical wind tunnels are often used simply as a tourist or recreational attraction, although they can be used as a skydiving training tool. While you can obviously imagine young kids (and adults too) jumping at the opportunity to get inside of one, they can really help a first-time skydiver get the feel for what skydiving will be like, thus helping them build their confidence for the big day of their first jump.
This looks like an interesting building. Hmm.
There are many advantages presented from an indoor sky diving system over traditional skydiving (AKA jumping out of a perfectly good aircraft!) and if you are sheepish about traditional skydiving, you may want to consider it first.
Perceived safety factor – While we are always quick to point out that sky diving is a very safe sport, with very few fatalities or injuries, it still seems extremely dangerous to most people. Getting inside of a vertical wind tunnel, which will only propel the person 10-15 feet above the ground, on the other hand, seems much safer by comparison. In reality, both are totally safe to partake in, but you can’t blame your brain for trying to play tricks on you to convince you that indoor sky diving is a much safer activity.
It can prepare you for a real jump – Lots of people who are apprehensive about traditional skydiving can gain peace of mind from going indoor sky diving first. You will get suited up in a jumpsuit, helmet, goggles and all necessary gear, and it will truly simulate the feeling of sky diving. You will immediately learn what it feels like to free-fall, without making any radical changes in your elevation. You will also discover how moving your body slightly can change the direction and speed of your free-fall, to the point where your first real jump will feel natural to you.
Less limitations on who can and can’t jump – Even though we maintain that traditional sky diving is safe, there are still a ton of things that can go wrong 15,000 feet above the earth’s surface. That’s why sky diving companies have to set limits on who can and can’t jump. Young children and severely overweight individuals will likely be excluded from being able to sky dive. With indoor sky diving though, there is much less risk involved, and people of all ages and most weights can partake. Children will need their parent’s permission however, but no amount of pleading from a parent would ever get an 8-year-old up into a plane they would eventually hurl themselves from.
While there are certainly many advantages to indoor sky diving, there are a few distinct disadvantages as well. We won’t cover the fact that most elitist sky divers consider it to be “fake” sky diving, as that’s simply a matter of opinion.
The view is nowhere near as stunning – This one is probably pretty obvious, but when you go indoor sky diving in a vertical wind tunnel, the view is generally unspectacular. The feeling of being high up above the earth’s surface disappears, and you don’t get that feeling of rushing towards the ground, or slowly floating towards it once you pull out your parachute.
Finding an indoor sky diving location can be much harder – With traditional sky diving, you can generally find a drop zone in every state in the country and in most foreign countries as well. All they need is a small plane, the sky diving gear and a certified instructor. With an indoor sky diving set up, even though all the equipment may be cheaper to invest in, you simply don’t see as many of them. Some drop zones will have a vertical wind tunnel on-site to help prepare you for your jump, but by and large indoor sky diving facilities are not the norm.
So, if you’ve ever wanted to go sky diving but are still even slightly apprehensive about it, indoor sky diving might just be the thrill you’ve been looking for. Who knows, it might even be enough to give you the courage to finally get up in that plane and do the jump for real!
I’ve tried both indoor skydiving and outdoor skydiving, and I liked the real experience much better then being inside. With that said, it seems like being indoors was a great opportunity to do some skydiving training. Even though I’ve only ever done a tandem jump, I feel like it helped me remain calm and enjoy the ride a lot better.
Thanks for stopping by. Yes I agree the real thing is much better, but the indoor version helps bring new people into the fold.

Why owning 1 BTC becomes harder everyday???
if you want to see bitcoin as a currency then it doesn't matter how much it is worth. you buy $20 worth of bitcoin and you spend $20 worth of bitcoin. if bitcoin is worth $20 you get 1 bitcoin and spend 1 bitcoin.
I think that basically you have no clue what bitcoin is nor how it works.
Seven years ago you had 100$ , you could buy 100$ worth of bitcoin.
Nowadays, you have 100$ , you can buy 100$ worth of bitcoin.
Seven year in the future, you will have 100$ and you might be able to buy 100$ worth of bitcoin. (if the dollar won;t be garbage by that time).
You think that if you own 2 million doge coins they are worth more than 1 btc just because "it's much wow more coins"?

There are some business ideas that are huge successes from the very start and some that fail at the first hurdle. So, how can you tell if the idea you have will work?
Firstly, you need to do extensive market research. There is no point in starting up a business and risking everything, then just crossing your fingers and hoping it works. There needs to be a market for your products and services and you need to know how that market will respond to what you have to offer.
Starting up a business is costly and you need to be prepared for how much you will need to put into it. You may need to find investors and in order to do that, you will have to produce cash flow estimations, figures for how well competitors do and a repeat custom forecast.
One unique idea is not usually enough to keep a business running. When you think of a good business idea, you must make sure that the idea has the potential to expand. Your customers will want to see new things from you consistently and if you fail in presenting them, you run the risk of customers getting bored and going elsewhere.
Do not worry about originality so much. It is almost guaranteed that someone somewhere is having the same idea as you. There are very few completely unique ideas and that is okay. What you need to do is make sure your idea is fresh and revitalised in some way or another so it is not exactly the same as someone else’s.
Are you willing to do what it takes? Your idea may be perfectly viable, but if you are not willing to put the work in for the long-term, there is no point in going ahead.

John Harvey Kellogg was one of America's most beloved physicians; a best-selling author, lecturer, and health-magazine publisher; founder of the Battle Creek Sanitarium; and patron saint of the pursuit of wellness. His youngest brother, Will, was the founder of the Battle Creek Toasted Corn Flake Company. In The Kelloggs, Howard Markel tells the sweeping saga of these two extraordinary men, whose lifelong competition and enmity toward one another changed America's notion of health and wellness and who helped change the course of American medicine, nutrition, wellness, and diet.
From the cofounders of the smash hit Cousins Maine Lobster food trucks comes a business book revealing to new entrepreneurs how the authors built their brand through integrity and authenticity.
In early 2012, Jim Tselikis visited LA and met up with his cousin Sabin Lomac. Over a few drinks they waxed nostalgic about their childhood in Maine, surrounded by family, often elbow deep in delicious lobster while gathered around the picnic table. From this strong memory was born the very first Cousins Maine Lobster food truck. Smart, authentic marketing, and sustainable, delicious ingredients helped turn that one food truck into an overnight sensation. Then, in just three years, they went from a single food truck to a nationally franchised legion of trucks, an online delivery service, and a brick-and-mortar restaurant, grossing over $15 million in sales a year.
Start-up fever has taken hold of America, and there are hundreds of books to teach listeners how to become entrepreneurs; this is the first book to answer the question: What's next? At each step, Jim and Sabin were faced with hard decisions - opening each new food truck carefully instead of rushing to meet the demand; turning down a six-figure franchise offer because it came from someone who didn't support their vision; turning down Shark Tank (twice) until they could insist on participating only if Barbara Corcoran was one of the Sharks. Now Jim and Sabin teach listeners how they, too, can reach the next level of success in their own businesses, without having to compromise themselves.

Awesome book! I highly recommend it to any entrepreneur looking for authentic advice. These guys are straight shooters and don't sugar coat things. They make it clear that it isn't easy to build a brand and it's not for everyone. They have a ton of hilarious stories like having to ask "what's a P & L". I live in South Dakota but this book makes me want to travel out to LA to try their food and meet these guys. They seem like guys you would want to have a beer with. I can't say enough positive things about this book!

Hettie and Alexander are back, and this was never going to be a conventional love story. No bed of roses. Proud, passionate and willful, they are alike in so many ways. That has to be a good thing doesn’t it? Or it could be a disaster…both carry scars, and old wounds have a habit of causing new hurt.

Written by Sue, Tuesday, September8, 2015, cloudy, foggy, temps. high 80's, I can feel fall in the air.
She began with a special note to me, we are not only mother and daughter, we are best friends!
She gave me her own ten commandments, I can attest that she lives by them!
She even wrote some baking secrets for me.
At the end of each page she has either written a bible verse, a quote from either herself or others! I love this one.
This photo was taken about two weeks ago while family was visiting, Dh always grills his famous steaks for the family.So many of you have asked how Mother is doing, as you can see she is doing and looking "Marvelous Darling", (even as I write this she is at work!") Have I mentioned, she is 86yrs. young?We give thanks to our heavenly Father for His healing touches, and many blessings upon our lives!
While here, our oldest son, wanted to bless us with a special anniversary gift, I will update and reveal real soon, Pinky promise!
I haven't posted in a while, so I have come to the conclusion that I either have the most boring life, or one of the busiest, I am leaning toward the latter, but it could well be a little of both! LOL I have found that the longer I am away from blogging the harder it is to jump back in! I will be trying real hard to remedy this!
That's all the news from the farmhouse for today!
