The Somali of the United States are a diaspora people who fled their native Somalia when their country collapsed in 1991. It is estimated that nearly 1 million Somalis fled Somalia in 1991 to Kenya, Ethiopia and Djibouti. More affluent Somalis escaped to Western Europe and eventually to the United States of America (USA). A 2000 report by the United Nations High Commissioner of Refugees (UNHCR) records 5,200 Somali refugees being granted asylum in the USA. This small number has continued to grow, however. 2003 US Census data shows the Somali population in the USA at 30,000, however, the current population estimates range between 30,000 and 150,000. Data is hard to gather because multiple Somali families in the USA often live in one domicile and fear the landlord may evict for over occupancy.
Somalis in the USA primarily live in 3 cities: 1) Minneapolis, MN; 2) Columbus, OH; and, 3) Seattle, WA (listed in order of population). However, Somalis are also a part of what is called "second migration." Initially most Somalis were placed in Virginia, near Washington, D.C. However, due to economic reasons many Somalis moved away from Washington, D.C. to the areas listed above. Smaller numbers of Somalis have moved to Lewiston-Portland, ME and to other rural areas.
The influx of Somali immigrants has been met with mixed reaction. They often face prejudice on many levels. Most Somali immigrants do not speak English finding it difficult to understand available governmental services but also causing some service providers to ignore them because of the language barrier. They also face the challenge of adjusting to a new culture and prejudice against Islam after 9/11. Lastly, Somalis in the USA struggle to find affordable housing in the cities where they live.
An intrinsic link exists between the history of Somalia and history of Islam. Daarood and Isaaq, for whom two Somali family clans are named, are believed to have brought the Islamic faith to Somalia. Much debate about the veracity of these claims exists. Lewis, however, argues that Islam made its appearance in Somali “shortly after Hijrah†and entrenched itself in the local landscape by the 9th or 10th Century B.C. The historical trajectory would correlate to the overall account of the spread of Islam into the Horn of Africa. Somalis, by and large, practice Sufism. Classic Sufism believes intimate relationship with Allah can be obtained before one dies. Intimacy with God, for the Sufi, comes by following "tariqah" (the path). The disciplines practiced along tariqah vary but the result should be "ma'rifa," or "absorption into God."
* Scripture Prayers for the Somali in United States.
* Pray for the Somalis in the USA to be open to hearing the Gospel.
* Pray for the Holy Spirit to begin working on the hearts of Somalis to recognize that intimacy with God comes only through a relationship with Christ.
* Pray for gospel laborers to enter into the harvest field of Somalis who are living in the USA.

�Let us go on, then,� said Clawbonny, dejectedly.
He had no heart now for anything. The North Pole was indeed before his eyes, but not the man who had discovered it.
As they got nearer the island, which was not more than eight or ten miles in circumference, the navigators noticed a tiny fiord, just large enough to harbour their boat, and made towards it immediately. They feared their captain�s dead body would meet their eyes on the coast, and yet it seemed difficult for a corpse to lie on it, for there was no shore, and the sea broke on steep rocks, which were covered with cinders above watermark.
At last the little sloop glided gently into the narrow opening between two sandbanks just visible above the water, where she would be safe from the violence of the breakers; but before she could be moored, Duk began howling and barking again in the most piteous manner, as if calling on the cruel sea and stony rocks to yield up his lost master. The Doctor tried to calm him by caresses, but in vain. The faithful beast, as if he would represent the captain, sprang on shore with a tremendous bound, sending a cloud of cinders after him.
But Duk had already disappeared.
Duk was barking vehemently some distance off, but his bark seemed full of grief rather than fury.
�Has he come on the track of some animal, do you think? � asked Johnson.
They all four rushed forward, in spite of the blinding cinder-dust, and came to the far-end of a fiord, where they discovered the dog barking round a corpse wrapped in the British flag!
�Hurrah for England!� shouted all with one accord.
�And for America!� added Clawbonny, holding out one hand to Hatteras and the other to Altamont.
Duk was not behind with his hurrah, which was worth quite as much as the others.
For a few minutes the joy of recovery of their captain filled all their hearts, and the poor fellows could not restrain their tears.
The Doctor found, on examination, that he was not seriously hurt. The wind threw him on the coast where landing was perilous work, but, after being driven back more than once into the sea, the hardy sailor had managed to scramble on to a rock, and gradually to hoist himself above the waves.
Then he must have become insensible, for he remembered nothing more except rolling himself in his flag. He only awoke to consciousness with the loud barking and caresses of his faithful Duk.
After a little, Hatteras was able to stand up supported by the Doctor, and tried to get back to the sloop.
�You are happy now?� said his friend.
He had become quite delirious with excitement, and fever burned in his veins. His eyes shone with unnatural brilliancy, and his brain seemed on fire. Perfect rest was what he most needed, for the Doctor found it impossible to quiet him.
A place of encampment must therefore be fixed upon immediately.
Altamont speedily discovered a grotto composed of rocks, which had so fallen as to form a sort of cave.

If you need to manage multiple projects within a single repository, you can use a subtree merge to handle all the references.
Typically, a subtree merge is used to contain a repository within a repository. The "subrepository" is stored in a folder of the main repository.
Merge another repository into it as a subtree called Spoon-Knife.
The test project will use that subproject as if it were part of the same repository.
Fetch updates from Spoon-Knife into our test project.
Create a new directory and navigate to it.
Initialize a new Git repository.
Create and commit a new file.
Add a new remote URL pointing to the separate project that we're interested in.
remote: Counting objects: 1732, done.
Receiving objects: 100% (1732/1732), 528.19 KiB | 621 KiB/s, done.
Resolving deltas: 100% (1086/1086), done.
Merge the Spoon-Knife project into the local Git project. This doesn't change any of your files locally, but it does prepare Git for the next step.
Create a new directory called spoon-knife, and copy the Git history of the Spoon-Knife project into it.
Commit the changes to keep them safe.
git commit -m "Subtree merged in spoon-knife"
Although we've only added one subproject, any number of subprojects can be incorporated into a Git repository.
Tip: If you create a fresh clone of the repository in the future, the remotes you've added will not be created for you. You will have to add them again using the git remote add command.

It is indeed an honour for me to be invited to deliver a keynote address at this important international symposium on Sustainable Global Health, taking place in this beautiful historical city of Bonn. The presence of representatives of all spheres of government, international organizations, universities and research institutions, private sector and civil societies from many parts of the world underscores the importance attached to this symposium. I wish to congratulate the organizers for their foresight and determination that have led to the successful convening of this meeting. It is indeed inspiring to learn that the motivating drive for this symposium is the noble desire to work together in a holistic, global and action oriented manner towards achieving sustainable global health. We in the United Nations Human Settlement Programme fully share your conviction that it is only through collective effort that the Millennium Development Goals can be achieved for the sake of human wellbeing, livelihood, sustainable development and global peace and stability.
Indeed, the challenges of promoting human wellbeing, particularly in the area of health, must be addressed in a holistic manner and within a global perspective. Experience of the past decades has strongly confirmed that no community, society or nation, can deal with health issues in isolation. They have shown that are no islands in the health arena.
This is all the more the case as this symposium is taking place at a critical turning point in human history. 2007 is a year when human beings will become a predominantly urban species, homo urbanus. From now on the majority of people will no longer be rural but urban. There is no going back for this transition is irreversible and accelerating. The world’s urban population is expected to grow at an average annual rate of 1.78% between 2005 and 2030, almost twice the growth rate of the world’s total population. Ninety-five percent of this growth will take place in the cities of the developing world. This means that every month a city the size of Tehran, Kinshasa or Madrid needs to be built in developing countries. By 2030, the total number of new urban households in the world requiring shelter will have increased by 877.5 million. This represents an increase of 35 million households every year between 2005 and 2030, or 96,150 households per day, or 4,000 households per hour.
As cities become the predominant mode of living, the major challenge for public health in the 21st century will be in urban areas. It is interventions in human settlements, and particularly in cities, that will determine our success in achieving national and global health goals. There can be no doubt that the mode of urban development and the capacities that are put in place to respond to the challenges of urban growth will have an important impact on our future wellbeing.
Patterns of future urban growth will affect the incidence and severity of health issues and influence strategies for intervention. The morphology of cities, their density, the dominant age of their present and future populations, accessibility to shelter and basic services, and the structure of decision-making have a direct bearing on the health of populations. In all these situations, and in both developed and developing countries, the challenge is to develop effective policies and programmes that reduce the prevalence of chronic, infectious and other diseases and also reduce the health inequities that characterize urban areas. For developed countries, which are already highly urbanized, the main challenge is to deal with the long standing disparities in health care, especially among marginalized populations. And on the part of the developing world, it is to respond to the phenomenal rate of urbanization in countries that is characterized with concentrated poverty in slums.
The phenomenon of slums constitutes a major impediment to achieving sustainable global health in a rapidly urbanising world. Nearly one billion people today live in urban slums, without adequate shelter and basic services. This figure is expected to rise to 2 billion over the next 25 years. What we are witnessing is urbanization of poverty and ill health, and the creation of a fertile breeding ground for endemic disease. Living conditions in slums constitute the basis of most if not all of the prevailing health hazards we are battling with today. It is among slum dwellers that malaria, tuberculosis, the opportunistic diseases associated with HIV/Aids, and other epidemics take the heaviest toll.
Most slums are overcrowded, with five and more persons sharing one room which is used for cooking, sleeping and living. Lack of water and sanitation, solid waste disposal, the presence of vermin, and poor ventilation combined with the use of low-grade fuels as the principal form of energy, constitute the principal causes for ill health.
Early life experiences are amongst the most powerful influences on health throughout the course of life. A number of studies have connected overcrowded housing conditions during childhood with respiratory problems and infections later in life. Housing deprivation alone can lead to a 25% greater risk of disability or severe ill health across the life course, with the risk increasing with exposure to poor housing in early childhood. Where poverty is endemic and social dislocation proverbial, the HIV/Aids pandemic has catastrophic effects, especially on women and children.
The causal relationship between socio-economic development and health is clear. The poor and malnourished are more likely to become sick and are at a higher risk of dying from their illnesses. This ill health undermines efforts to reduce poverty. People who become ill are more likely to fall into the poverty trap. Debilitating illness prevents adults from earning a decent living; it also prevents children from attending school, thus decreasing their chances of a healthy and productive adulthood. Indeed, good health is crucial for economic development.
Though cities are sometimes seen as chaotic and filled with the worst of human maladies, historically, they have also proven to be one of the most important sources of creativity and innovation. Though two billion people will be added to our cities by 2030, the sheer growth of cities is not in itself a primary cause of ill health. The central issue is managing growth with equity. Poverty and increasing inequities are the major challenges that have to be confronted in achieving sustainable health.
To solve these problems, efforts in poverty eradication and health care must be blended with urban planning and management. Strategies of care and prevention must give special weight to poverty dimensions in health, particularly in addressing the phenomenon of slums. Indeed, reducing risks and improving global health is not simply a function of health care. Rather it is an issue of providing equitable access to public goods and services. More concretely, any sustainable effort in dealing with malaria, diarrhea, tuberculosis and other prevalent diseases will depend on our ability to provide access to decent shelter and basic infrastructure and services such as clean water, basic sanitation and garbage disposal. In summary, the emerging risks and issues related to health cannot be separated from the way that cities are planned and managed.
This is where our efforts can compliment each other. We, at UN-HABITAT have only a few weeks ago adopted our new strategic plan for the next six years, devoted to promoting sustainable urbanization. In line with UN reform, this plan is designed to strengthen the role of UN-HABITAT as a catalyst for the coordinated implementation of the Habitat Agenda and related Millennium Development Goals. The key pillars of this Plan are a strategic focus on slum upgrading and slum prevention, creating strong links between policy reform, capacity building and projects on the ground, and last but not least, partnerships.
The Plan calls for ongoing and increasing alliance building with all those committed to making a difference. This implies first and foremost that we work with member States to develop effective policies and strategies to meeting the social, economic and environmental challenges of rapid urbanisation. It requires working in tandem with the UN family of agencies, programmes and funds to ensure a coordinated and concerted approach to mainstream sustainable urbanisation and urban poverty reduction. It includes reinforcing partnerships with international and domestic financial institutions so that capacity building and policy advisory efforts are followed up by investments and by tangible results on the ground. Finally it involves deepening our strategic working relations with our long-standing partners especially with local authorities and with the urban poor.
It is in this regard, that I look forward to working with you very closely in achieving our common agenda of promoting sustainable urban development and global health. We have in place a number of programmes that compliment the various interventions that you are making in achieving global sustainable health. We need to marshal our respective competences and capacities in confronting this major global challenge.
This is the end of Dr. Anna Tibaijuka’s statement.

How many times should a devotee go around Vishnu murti in a Hindu temple? Now this is a perplexing question as there are no written rules. And the number of times people go around varies from region to region. Circumambulation, or simply going around, of deity in the sanctum sanctorum is an important part of temple visit.
But as per majority of pandits, astrologers and pujaris, one should go around Vishnu in a temple four times.
Four circumambulations should be made in a Ganesh Temple.
But there are people who do 2 or 6 or 8. This is also permitted in many regions.
But one should never do 1 or 3 or 5 circumambulation around Vishnu.

In honor of the royal wedding of Prince William to Kate Middleton, I thought I’d add a bit of royal flavor to this blog by sharing fundraising lessons I learned from a former princess.
I had the pleasure of hearing Sarah Duchess of York speak at the Association of Fundraising Professionals international conference in Seattle. In case you didn’t know, the duchess has been involved with several charities in Britain and internationally.
The Duchess really had that charisma and regal quality about her. She started her talk off with humor telling us that she married the Queen’s handsomest son. 🙂 Sarah, Duchess of York, said to the audience, “you can make a difference if you have passion and understanding.” She told us to speak from the heart for our cause. (How real is that? Doesn’t the Grant Whisperer frequently advise you the same?) She urged the room of fundraisers to follow-up with donors and to be sincere. You don’t have to be royalty to recognize sound advice when you hear it.

ROMANS 8:38 KJV "For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things..."
35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. 38For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
8:38 I am persuaded - This is inferred from the thirty - fourth verse, in an admirable order: - Neither death shall hurt us; For Christ is dead: Nor life; 'is risen Nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers; nor things pre - sent, nor things to come; is at the right hand of God: Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature; maketh intercession for us. Neither death - Terrible as it is to natural men; a violent death in particular, #Rom 8:36|. Nor life - With all the affliction and distress it can bring, #Rom 8:35|; or a long, easy life; or all living men. Nor angels - Whether good (if it were possible they should attempt it) or bad, with all their wisdom and strength. Nor principalities, nor powers - Not even those of the highest rank, or the most eminent power. Nor things present - Which may befal us during our pilgrimage; or the whole world, till it passeth away. Nor things to come - Which may occur either when our time on earth is past, or when time itself is at an end, as the final judgment, the general conflagration, the everlasting fire. Nor height, nor depth - The former sentence respected the differences of times; this, the differences of places. How many great and various things are contained in these words, we do not, need not, cannot know yet. The height - In St. Paul's sublime style, is put for heaven. The depth - For the great abyss: that is, neither the heights, I will not say of walls, mountains, seas, but, of heaven itself, can move us; nor the abyss itself, the very thought of which might astonish the boldest creature. Nor any creature - Nothing beneath the Almighty; visible enemies he does not even deign to name. Shall be able - Either by force, #Rom 8:35|; or by any legal claim, #Rom 8:33|, &c. To separate us from the love of God in Christ - Which will surely save, protect, deliver us who believe in, and through, and from, them all.
Ro 8:38 For I am persuaded. No hostile power of the universe can lead us away, is the apostle's holy confidence. That neither death nor life. These adversaries seem to advance in pairs. Death is named first, because death by martyrdom threatens. The next pair is nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers. "The angels" are good angels, while malignant angels are meant by the other terms. Nor things present, nor things to come. The present or the future.
Yes , I am persuaded : This is an individual belief and stand : Nothing : Nothing shall separate me from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus : Praise God !!!!
When the love of God is in the heart of a man deeply nothing can prevent that individual from serving God faithfully.
God 's love for us does not depend on anything that we do. He loves us in spite of not because of. God is not always pleased with what we do but we can be assured he will always love us.
For I am persuaded: this is an individual matter... Each child of God must come to that place that they know without a shadow of a doubt that the Almighty God is with them. This passage are for those who have sold out to the world, and have put all their trust in Jesus - so sure that no matter what comes out against them - the many fiery darts of the advesary, the devil, or the seemingly endless trials - God's people are unwavering as Paul. They know no matter what, God is with them and will love them forever. But this is solely for those who Jesus and have come to the place of the knowledge of the truth. Not so for the wicked.
I made up my mind, that no force will be forceful enough to separate me from the love of God which is expressly demonstrated in our Lord Jesus.

Any drastic or sudden action of any coalition in America or in the politics of the world should not alarm the people in the United States too greatly nor incite in them unwarranted anxiety or fear for the security of their hard-won freedom and their countries safety. From judging the collective bad and good karma of different nations, the great sages and masters of India by examining history with their intuitive perceptions can predict and decipher the fate of countries in times of war and peace. It was so predicted that Hillary Clinton and the Democratic party would lose in 2016. Many of India’s sages saw visions of her loss even as many astrologers said she would win. It has been predicted that America possesses a sufficient stockpile of good karma accumulated from her past good actions which availed to liberate Europe, England and Russia from Hitler’s powerful and vast army.
The good karma of the allies so befogged the mind of Hitler with their invisible forces that he mistakenly chose to invade Russia instead of conquering weakened and drained England hurt by her terrible losses at Dunkirk. The essence here is to reiterate the truth of America’s past good actions and India’s saints preventing Hitler’s blitzkrieg, her all-powerful airplanes and V-2 rockets from taking England in 1940.
America, liberator of Europe, Russia, England and India can defeat any aggressor no matter how strong and aggressive with enough stored up good karma by causing any enemy to misjudge its strategy and bungle its politics, if there is to be a third world war. America who freely helped all nations was then denounced for dollar imperialism. Such ungratefulness is bad karma from her accusers especially for those nations who have accepted her financial help. To halt this envious criticism all America has to do is quit giving her alleged imperialistic greenback to these ingrate nations.
Rest assure if there is another world war America will be victorious because she has the best good karma therefore my dear Americans you will be protected not just by good karma but by the fortress of His divine grace who is the architect of karmic law. Who could stand against her, if God be with her? Without exception in the lives of all nations every event as with human beings are ruled by the inescapable cosmic law of cause and effect. This cosmic justice from the tribunal of cosmic laws is named the law of karma by the sages and great one’s from old India and the possibility to escape from it is zero!
So Let’s Not Drown Ourselves In A Glass Of Water. Let’s not be frightened by God’s cinema. Don’t give too much importance to the terrifying dream movies of life in this world. All of these nightmares will come and go for they are not real. However terrible and alarming nightmares are merely nightmares. There are too many unpleasant surprises in the dream plot of this worldly movie. Out of all the lands on this earth, America is the one that is blessed, because there is no aggression in her in spite of all the troubles she is going through.
God said that if ten righteous people could be found there, He would spare their destruction. Apparently none were found and the city was annihilated, but not by God’s wrath but by the total disregard the people had for the virtuous laws of righteousness that rules all creation. If this universe were not intelligently governed by cosmic laws, how would it be possible for this elaborate and remarkably complex creation to exist? The masters warn us if we violate these cosmic laws, we cause undue suffering on ourselves and that man would do well to bring himself in harmony with universal laws.
A disease germ or a lone blood clot can kill a human being no matter if he lives in the solitude of an underground bunker, a cave or in the seclusion of a desert retreat. It will not be underground cities that will protect the American people, but an increase and continuance of her generous and good actions. These predictions were made by Paramahansa Yogananda, author of the book Autobiography of a Yogi, a spiritual classic in 1939, 1942 and May of 1951.

It's time to wrap up the second week of school in the fragmented form with Friday Fragments! I am so in love with Friday. And three day weekends. Truly, they should both come around more often.
I haven't laughed so hard in quite a while. Good grief. Several of us have had a lot of fun with this and I will spare y'all some of our comments.
Our principal was standing right outside the lab doors. And it wasn't even Friday!
I've heard of prancercise, but honestly thought it was an SNL skit or something. Is it a real thing? She looked serious. And ridiculous. But in a way...I wonder if there is something freeing about running around, waving your arms. The kids in the other video seemed to think so. Anyway - it's good for a laugh, that's for sure!
I want to know if I get a pair of the blue leopard spotted (??) tights with Prancercise membership. I don't you can buy those anymore and someday I want to be a big hit at the retirement home.
Looks good for the kids.
Prancercise your long weekend and enjoy!
Too funny. I did try a bit of prancing too.
My grandchildren don't even start school until next week. Hopefully their teachers aren't already stressed out because they went back yesterday.

I'm getting sick of the British banks' self-gratification. They're saying that Britain is one of the first countries to make use of this "new" chip-and-pin system, where you identify yourself by a pin-code instead of by signature when you're buying goods at shops.
What they fail to mention is that they are more than 10 years (at least) behind other countries. Flashback to Norway 10 years ago, long before I even thought about moving to Britain. I had a bank account with a VISA debit card, and I never had to sign when purchasing stuff. I always tapped in my pin-code.
I don't know how much longer they've had that arrangement over there because I was too young to have a debit card much before that. It was pretty common to use plastic payment options though, so I imagine it'd been in place for a while.
Ok, I should shut up now. I've ranted enough for one day.

The subject of retirement generally raises the mood of doctors, however, news that five QoF indicators are about to be ‘retired’ for diabetes in 2014/15 is likely to cause dismay in primary care, especially since they will not be replaced with alternatives.
The removal of DM010 (percentage of patients with a record of retinal screening) is perhaps reasonable on the grounds that few patients would receive this service from their general practice. The emergence of screening programmes, organised on a district, regional (or, in the case of Wales, national) basis would argue against payment for simply reporting the work of other agencies. On the other hand, the NSF for diabetes (due to deliver in less than one month!) requires that patients are ‘invited for screening’, so there could be a large shortfall in the numbers actually screened; it is not clear who would be incentivised to address this issue.
I have little problem with the loss of DM005 (a record of urinary albumin : creatinine ratio) since this is essentially a screen for cardiovascular (CV) risk in type 2 diabetes and, therefore, pointless in patients with established CV disease. Moreover, DM006 (which mandates for ACEi or ARB treatment for newly diagnosed microalbuminuria) requires screening in previously negative subjects.
Retirement of DM013 (record of dietary review by a suitably competent professional) is probably justified on the grounds that ‘suitably competent’ is a vague term and difficult to police. In a similar vein, DM015 & 016 (asking about, advising and assessing erectile dysfunction in males) could be viewed as the loss of ‘wooly’ assessments. However, one wonders why they were not viewed in this way when being added to the list only 12 months ago.

This piece was inspired by a comic strip that I did a little while back (http://www.wanderingpandacomics.com/mrgoh/comic.php?comic=116). I decided to put together the two characters into one punchline. I've tried to do "cool designs of a graphic design nature" in the past, but decided that my love is cartoons and that is what I should stick with.
I'm also very fond of large letters.
Shiver me timbers, this is too cool! I actually think either color is awesome! Love it!
I don't think it needs to actually say "arrr"
This has GOT to have been done at this stage in t-shirt history, hasn't it?
Totally should be on black. I friggin' HATE pirates... but it isn't bad. It doesn't have too much meat and potatoes to it, but you don't always need it, I guess. I definitely wouldn't wear it because of the pirate thing, but it's kinda' cute, I guess. $4.
You should have totally given him a pegleg.....for shame.

Before going on with the details of ”Le Habitant” I want to give credit to those who inspired me to keep chickens in the city or who helped in design and construction.
First of all to the Garden Spot Nursery in Bellingham, WA for keeping chickens running around their place making me think, “If they can, why can’t I?”, I had actually been thinking about it for a while but needed a shove. Secondly to my Son-in-Law John and daughter Tami who drove to Seattle from Coeur d'Alene, Idaho to help with construction and keep me from seriously hurting myself trying to build something like this. Last and most importantly, to my wife and partner in all things, Catherine. Whenever I come up with hair brained projects she supports my insanity completely. If it involves any form of food stuff she is usually on board.
At first Catherine was skeptical about the idea but now loves the chickens and the fresh eggs. The idea fits into our overall sustainability plan as a couple years ago we decided to grow as much food as we could because between agribusiness and the government they are trying to either poison us or drive us broke. We also get organic garden fertilizer so you see it all fits into the “greener plan”.
The design was primarily taken from the amazing “Tangled Nest Coop” I found on backyardchickens.com. I looked at two other coops on Backyard that also gave me ideas to change it up. They were the “Wichita Cabin Coop” and “The Red Roost Inn”. As you will see my major design change was putting the nest box outside to give more inside room. I also added several windows screened on the inside with acrylic window panes for light and ventilation and a “trap door” in the floor. On the left side is an access door for the electrical controls and timers on the inside. I wanted automatic doors to let the kids out to play in their run while I am at work so have installed 2 add-a-motor model D20’s for that task http://www.add-a-motor.com/ . Given that I built it in the shade I also added a roof skylight for additional light inside which I ordered from the “Atlantic Shed Supply” web store. Initially for the windows I wanted small sliding windows but couldn’t find any small ones to fit a 3/6 coop. Atlantic has them for shed and coops as small as 12x12 inches, I discovered this too late for my coop.
The overall dimension is 3x6 feet. This will house about 5-6 birds. The base is treated 4x4 post sunk in the ground then 2x4 frame around that. 4x4 are buried in the ground at the base to which the wire is attached then 1x4 over that to secure the wire to make it predator resistant. The floor set on top of the upper frame and walls framed above that using the tangled nest plan for frame and door sizing. We painted all inside parts with white latex primer as we went. Those are left over linoleum squares on the floor. The hinged trap door is 12x15, detail photos later. By the way, if it looks crooked to you, it is. Nothing I build is ever square. I’m the guy that measures a board 4 times and still cuts it wrong, plus it’s built on a slope making me as tippy as the coop adding another dimension entirely to the “lack of square”.
This is where I made my big mistake. I was trying to save money so I used T-111 exterior 3/8 sheeting for the walls and floor…USE ½ MINIMUM. I had to put a lot more screws in it to keep the walls from warping and more floor studs for the same reason. We cut the door and window holes and did the inside paint before hanging the walls.
The corners were trimmed with cedar fence boards which are cheap.
John had some left over deluxe roofing shingles so those made up the roof. We installed the roof skylight from Atlantic Shed which adds a lot of interior light.
The nest box is 23 inches long by 15 inches high at the high end. The middle divider then gives two, 11.5x15x14 inch deep nest boxes for the girls' daily egg repose. After the fact, I now wish I had put a “clean out door" in the box front to aid in cleaning.
Window frames were built and acrylic window panes cut and screwed into them. Exterior was stained with a water based exterior stain matching our fencing, again the inside was all white. Each window has a eye and hook to keep them open. Doors have strong locking hasps to keep creative critters out.
We started building the first of July and on Saturday August 13, 2011, 2-Ameraucana, 2-Black Star and 1-New Hampshire Red pullets came home to roost as the first “habitants” of “Le Habitant”. They are all about 20 weeks old so are just starting to lay…small eggs. Week 2 we got 4 brown eggs in 1 day from the 3 layers.
Egg #1 found on day 2.
Ongoing work will be to build a larger outside fenced and covered run. I already have made several modifications after having them home 2 weeks. I added a lift door in the coop basement that goes out into an outdoor run which will eventually be on a motor and timer. Like a garden, this will be an ever changing entity over time.
These ladies love to range in our large back yard which is tightly fenced and all gardens (we did fence off the veggies). Besides eggs we are getting bug, slug and weed control work from them. We have also significantly decreased food waste as they eat most anything from the kitchen.
This is “nameless". A real beauty eh?
It is a fortress as far as security goes with 4x4’s buried in the ground. It has the motorized door set up to let them out at 10 am after laying is done and close after roosting time in the evening. Before that time they can get into the basement of the coop which as you have seen is outside. This way when we are at work they can be out but in as it were. The bottom has a second layer of hardware cloth which is 24 inches high and securely fastened with 1x6 boards all round the base and wire buried several inches in the ground.
There is a 3 inch layer of coarse, washed construction sand in the bottom.
They will have toys as well…with more to come.
The information and member experience on BYC is invaluable, so thanks for all the help. Feel free to contact me with questions or comments. Happy chicken keeping.
We got the first egg from one of 2 easter eggers that were hatched May 24, 2011 today. It has a paper thin shell and was cream colored.
Do you have sand in your run? Well my problem was how to clean out the Chicekn poop and leave the sand. I came up with a pooper scooper for the chicken run.
I took a piece of 3/8 CDX left over and cut a big hole in it with a jig saw, stapled on some hardware cloth and screw on some 1x1/2 inch pieces for side and back, screwed on a handle and...there you have it, a cheap method to sift out the poop.
12/19/12 Seattle Chickens don't really do snow!
Over the winter I found the area outside my coop to be a real mud hole so I added a cheap concreter paver area oout front to give us something relatively dry to walk on. It cost littel and took a day to put together.
I also found that true to the advise from BYC that when I let my chickens run free everywhere, they ate all my garden plans so I fenced this large area that is about 30x25 or so. Again , I used a lot of reclaimed or used materials, steeel fence posts and the inexpensive plastic green fencing. Now they are contained and happy with the "chicken yard".
I am currently working on an automatic watering system and will post pictures as soon as it is completed.
Left to right is a giant double youled egg from one of our Black Stars, 3rd from left is from a New Hampshire Red and 2 pale green eggs from Ameraucanas.
I built this system using both cups and a Little Giant font as I wanted the fot for water outside my coop and pen, and cups inside the pen and 2 inside the coop itself.
I used a Home Depot 5 gallon bucket with a standard toilet float as a shut off valve and connected it to a hose for the water supply. I plumbed my coop and run with ½ inch PVC. The pictures below make it pretty much self explanatory but feel free to contact me with any questions.
Note the screw cap on the end for cleaning and winter draining.
When the bird pecks at the yellow post it fills the cup, the cups twist off for cleaning.
There are 2 more cups mounted inside the coop when the girls are locked up.
There are 2 automatic doors on timers in our system. One goes from the coop to the secure pen. It lets them out of the coop at 10am so they can scratch after laying. The second is a newer door which I made from a yellow plastic clipboard. It go directly outside to the fenced chicken yard. When we both work away all day, I figured to let them outside into the yard (secure and fenced with chicken fence) mid afternoon a couple hours before I get home from work.
Both doors are on "add-a-motor D20 chicken coop motors", about $70 each, and a common household light timer plugged into my coop power. They work really well and are dependable and the girls love it. They are lined up at the doors before they open each day. They then know where to go to get back into the coop and what time the doors close...smart birds I guess.
The bolt is a stop in the wall so the door doesn't come up too high and fall out of it's track.
12x15 3/8 inch thick CDX scrap, note the 100# test fishing line going up to the motor which lifts the door.
standard size plastic clipboard connected again with fishing line (comes with the motor) to the motor. Door opens and closes at the times set on the household timer.
They are about a week old here.
Can you please tell me where you got those watering cups that twist off??? Thank you !!
This was a very helpful page. thanks. Loved the clip board!
Beautiful coop!! You've got some lucky chickies!! I noticed you were having problems getting your coop added to the coop pages. Your coop is certainly gorgeous and I'd sure like to duplicate it!! Maybe you should add some plans to the beginning of the page so that people can follow the instructions more easily, and maybe add a materials list? You could draw the plan with measurements, scan it to a picture on the computer and load it on up.
Pourquoi "Le Grand Habitant" comme titre ?

Despite increasing awareness and cognizance of the importance of sustainability, market shares of products integrating social or environmental attributes remain relatively small. This divergence puzzles both academia and industry practice. We propose that in consumers’ minds sustainability attributes “fit” only specific product categories and consequently provide empirical evidence for these rather opaque demand side peculiarities. A probabilistic discrete choice design offers insights into consumers’ worth functions and our findings show that sustainability is valued differently in high and low involvement categories as well as in hedonic and utilitarian product categories. Furthermore, we identify subject-specific covariates which will allow companies to specifically address the most fruitful target groups.Given the increasing public awareness concerning sustainability issues, it has been argued that consumers, rather than focusing on traditional functional or emotional brand attributes, specifically opt for socially and environmentally responsible ones (Kotler, 2011). But despite the urge to better understand sustainability in the context of product attribute bundles, there is a paucity of research in this area. A noteworthy exception is provided by Auger et al. (2008, 2003) who report that consumers are not willing to trade off quality aspects of a product for sustainability attributes, even though the latter are valued when considered in isolation (Auger, Burke, Devinney, & Louviere, 2003; Auger, Devinney, Louviere, & Burke, 2008). Another, even more fine-grained examination into the effects of sustainability attributes demonstrates that they are differently valued depending on the benefit sought by consumers (Luchs, et al., 2010). These first insights already point towards the importance of a more detailed examination of sustainability attributes. Within the present research study we therefore focus on varying levels of involvement and hedonic vs. utilitarian products to better understand their different effects on consumers’ preferences for sustainability.Based on attributes elicited within 17 in-depth interviews which have consequently been assessed regarding their real-world occurrence, we developed attribute sets for three generic products: a pullover (representative of a high-involvement product), a chocolate bar (low involvement and hedonic) and shower gel (utilitarian). They all contain either no sustainability attribute (i.e. conventional), are organic (which we posit to be a self-centered attribute) or Fair Trade (other-centered attribute). Our final sample of 638 respondents had to go through 15 paired comparisons (including a “no choice” option) for each of the three categories. A manipulation check supports our a priori classification into above outlined product- and attribute-categories. The final choice data was analyzed using the log linear Bradley-Terry model and we incorporate both subject- and object-specific covariates to get more detailed insights into consumers’ preference functions.We find that involvement interacts with preference as consumers value sustainability more in low than in high involvement products. Other than hypothesized, consumers do not value sustainability differently in hedonic and utilitarian product categories. However, in the former, it is more advisable to integrate other-centered sustainability attributes (such as Fair Trade), as hedonic products might entice consumers to make more altruistic decisions. This finding is especially interesting given the fact that our hedonic representative is chocolate and, as food product, even more likely to increase consumers’ preference for organic ingredients due to health considerations. Nevertheless, there is a significant increase in preferences for the other-centered benefit Fair Trade in hedonic product categories as compared to utilitarian ones. Furthermore, we investigate the influence of demographic variables on preference structures and find that especially the level of education impacts the choice for sustainable products.

Hypersexual disorder is a pattern of behavior involving intense preoccupation with sexual fantasies, urges and activities, leading to adverse consequences and clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational or other important functions. It was proposed in 2010 for inclusion in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fifth Edition (DSM-5) of the American Psychiatric Association (APA).
People with hypersexual disorder experience multiple, unsuccessful attempts to control or diminish the amount of time spent engaging in sexual fantasies, urges, and behaviors in response to dysphoric mood states or stressful life events.
For a valid diagnosis of hypersexual disorder to be established, symptoms must persist for a period of at least 6 months and occur independently of a use mania or a medical condition.
Hypersexual disorder was recommended for inclusion in the DSM-5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition) by the Sexual and Gender Identity Disorders Workgroup (Emerging Measures and Models, Conditions for Further Study). It was ultimately not approved. The term hypersexual disorder was reportedly chosen because it did not imply any specific theory for the causes of hypersexuality, which remain unknown. A proposal to add sexual addiction to the DSM system had been previously rejected by the APA, as not enough evidence suggested to them that the condition is analogous to substance addictions, as that name would imply.
The DSM-IV-TR, published in 2000, includes an entry called "Sexual Disorder—Not Otherwise Specified" (Sexual Disorder NOS), for disorders that are clinically significant but do not have code. The DSM-IV-TR notes that Sexual Disorder NOS would apply to, among other conditions, "distress about a pattern of repeated sexual relationships involving a succession of lovers who are experienced by the individual only as things to be used".

In 1978, the famous Fisherman’s Friend lozenges were imported into Switzerland for the first time and distributed by Uhlmann Eyraud. The range now comprises 11 flavours, eight of which are sugar free.
If they’re too strong, you’re too weak!
In 1865, Fleetwood, a town in Lancashire on the northwest coast of England, was the undisputed centre of the British fishing industry. From here, fishermen headed out into the rough and inhospitable North Sea in the North Atlantic. Freezing temperatures meant that many of them suffered from coughs, colds and bronchial diseases. The experienced Fleetwood pharmacist, James Lofthouse, developed a variety of treatments and remedies. Among them was an extremely strong tincture made from menthol and eucalyptus, which helped relieve the fishermen’s symptoms. However, the tincture’s containers often broke on the choppy seas, so Lofthouse pressed the liquid into lozenges. These quickly became popular among the local fishermen, who began referring to these miracle lozenges as their ‘friends’. And that’s how the lozenges got their famous name of ‘FISHERMAN’S FRIEND’.

Many applications like electric vehicles shall be benefited with strong switches and contactors until the performance implemented shall be great. You never merely forget probe systems there too because failure can happen to operations perhaps. Your project next time might just need such products. The way it should become taken care of has to be known once you will buy that. Staying safe occurs to your health. Check out high voltage probe and needed protocols for security.
You read manuals and rules. The manual is somehow skipped by others and that may lead to your mistake. Instructions should have you acquainted first because it might never work right anymore. Working on that turns easy after everything gets understood. Installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting are tips included there.
You receive aid from the help of professionals. Pros are worth hiring to stay benefited and have security to boost. Long time in operating here has occurred to those workers anyway. What they say towards such field is worth trusting then. Individuals who are experienced are worth grabbing because the received success rate there turns high. It turns as one bad idea whenever random people were gathered.
In working and installing probes or any related system, some space is worth maintaining there. That site probably has a lot of obstructions and handling that already seems very risky. The area needs to get cleared out until you manage to work there safely. In working that without space, difficulty occurs while moving. If a probe has something wrong involved, danger might follow.
You better turn off all power at the point you try to fix or change some components there. Electricity possibly affects you once something gets done. In involving great voltage, it could have you killed. The power needs to get shut down for safety reasons. Finishing in altering it occurs once it will be turned on.
Efficiently using that product gets known by taking certain programs. This will surely include some lessons for safety. Before operating, learning those becomes needed. One training program generally happens and benefits go to many individuals. Once it gets taken, you work like one professional already.
Circumstances may reach at its worst so you better stay prepared there. It may spark at some point and how it gets dealt with has to be known. You probably were thinking of panicking only and being professional is needed by staying safe and fixing it quickly. Not going wrong for anything is a wrong assumption because you may struggle if the outcome turns shocking.
In the operations as a whole, being alert is part of the deal. The surroundings might have something wrong. Danger gets known anyway after observing carefully all the time. Danger is only at risk for anyone who does this recklessly.
The product deserves to get familiarized. Being complicated least likely occurs in using probes whenever its specs and components are really known. Most workers only encounter struggles actually when their idea on such product has been lacking. You eventually get used on tis after taking many practices. Just be patient since mastering that also takes time.

Overall, the company saved approximately $224,400.
Employee Turnover: Reduced by 44 %, resulting approximately in $114,400 savings in salaries and benefit costs.
Inventory: The Company has doubled its fleet of luxury motor coaches from 6 to 12 in one year.
Founder H.A. Thompson and his son, Andy, began the family owned and operated company in 1985 with three employees servicing the Charlotte, NC, area. The company has now grown to over 80 employees and is the leading ground transportation provider in the Carolinas. In 2008, the company received the Operator of the Year award, a national award given by LCT Magazine.
How to effectively hire. The revolving door of turnover was too costly. For years, employee turnover averaged one third of their staff.
Not being able to understand or motivate existing employees was challenging daily operations.
Communications were painful; the perception between the managers was harming internal operations.
Company-wide moral was suffering from the core management team operating from personal silos.
There were some rough edges within the personalities of the management team that created sensitive outbursts and common drama.
The operations manager had been described as harsh and insulting. He had so many good attributes and qualities, and much potential, but he seemed to leave a trail of offenses behind him that included vendors, consultants and employees.
An expensive General Manager/CFO put more focus on sales calls than on operations and finances.
To recover the full management potential of the leadership team and establish authenticity.
To establish effective, honest communications and establish trust within the organization.
To hire more effectively, to reduce employee turnover and to improve the quality of operations.
To improve employee morale and job satisfaction.
To reduce stress for the owners and to bring fun back into the business.
Feedback Sessions: The project was initiated with the management team and the owners when PDP Representative, Don Crosby, began facilitating personal feedback sessions. Each session averaged thirty minutes to an hour depending on the depth of conversations.
Team Session: After the personal feedback sessions, the process lead into a three-hour team workshop to open up the group to provide individual and group dynamics. Uncovering the behaviors of each of the team members enabled each team member to better understand themselves and each other’s behavioral styles, energy, stress and trait perceptions.
Developing Effective Communication Skills PowerApp workshop: With the intention of improving communications, Don facilitated the workshop for about fifteen minutes before he stopped and announced that this was probably the last day that he would be working with Rose Chauffeured Transportation. Everyone was surprised and wondered why, so he simply shared that if there was not going to be considerate participation, there was no need for the company to waste their investment of time and finances going through the actions. This seemed to work, because the workshop finished with some measure of success and the project continued.
Training Certification: The Human Resource Manager was certified in the PDP Integrated Management System, and the company invested in a PDPworks Gold account.
Assessed Employee Base: Every individual in the company experienced their personal ProScan reports as an employee benefit so they could better understand themselves.
Employee surveys were handed out to each employee to measure overall job satisfaction. The surveys measured the level of respect they felt, what they liked most and least about their jobs and collected any suggestions for changes in the organization.
Employee Meetings: A short employee meeting was conducted for each group to thank them for participating and to discuss the outcomes, so that they felt their contribution mattered.
Employee and Management Consultation: Frequently and randomly a variety of people related challenges and issues would surface isolating core problems with certain employees and within the management team. One-on-one sessions and small team meetings were applied to reduce and eventually eliminate the major problems.
Mediation: One morning came the pivotal point that would cause the operations manager to end his five-year career with the company. There were heated conversations between the general manager and the operations manager that caused the owners’ involvement. As a consequence, the decision was made to release the operations manager. The decision was approved very quickly by the remaining managers. The owners were extremely frustrated, but the operations manager was committed to stay with the company.
During several discussions back and forth Don was able to get a new commitment from the operations manager and a verbal agreement from the owners to provide him one last chance, called the Last Dance. This was clearly the end of the road and it was up to the transformation of behavioral modification to succeed.
Management Consultation: The General Manager/CFO was terminated in December 2010 based on performance and behavior, this reduced a high overhead and the example was sent to the rest of the company as the owner was serious in making his company successful, without exception.
The Operations Manager was salvaged in an incalculable transformation. Rescuing this potential mis-hire saved the company a minimum of $110,000. In addition, in losing this key person the workload would have severely cost the company emotionally, as well as financially. One year later, he has earned the respect of almost everyone in the company.
Employee morale is at an all time high, the company has never been busier and it appears that people are better tolerating situations that would have caused far more drama in the past.
Management and operations are stabilized and better prepared to handle the increase in sales. This is key, for if operations were not stabilized, the company could have never sustained the growth.
The company has advanced to become an employer of choice, rather than just another employer.
Owner H.A. Thompson has the reward of witnessing his employees develop into serving the company’s clients as he’s always imagined, and the company relationships have produced a true working team.

Titu Maiorescu Building V Head Quarter, located on Calea Vacaresti Blvd, 4TH District, Bucharest, is a key building extension, for one of the most well-known, popular, dynamic and high-level private universities in Romania. Supplementary amphitheaters, study laboratories, classrooms and meeting rooms, have been designed and finished with top-quality materials.
The latter building for “Titu Maiorescu” University was created with investment and technical possibilities of the time, for a medium public building, functional and efficient for the students and the needs of the university. After more than 25 years, it seems necessary to extend and completely refurbish this building for the present and future requirements of the University. From the architectural concept perspective, the project’s general idea was to create a two and a half levels upper extension, over the existing building, with modern approach, transparency, respect for the environment and energy efficiency.
A metallic structure similar to a container framework, was designed for the extension, placed and hanged over the existing concrete building. The exterior facades and volumes have been designed to be covered with Equitone panels and high energy efficiency glass walls. The interior design was created as a high-tech industrial space combined with interrelated organic spaces.
Natural light has been one important detail for the extension’s design, as well as the main building facades’ positioning towards east, south, and west in order to properly sunlight all premises.

Alkaline Foods versus Acidic Foods: Which Are Better?
Alkaline foods versus acidic foods: which are better and why does it matter? Basically alkaline foods consumed 80% of the time should allow the body to maintain a pH level of 7.365 which is just slightly alkaline. With a more alkaline body, longevity and optimal health increase and the risk of chronic diseases like; diabetes, obesity and heart problems decrease.
Well the body is constantly trying to maintain a pH level of slightly alkaline. The body pulls the nutrients from the food you eat then either acidifies or alkalizes the blood. When there are not enough nutrients to maintain the slightly alkaline state next the body pulls from nutrients stored in the bones and other places in the body. When this backup runs dry, the body becomes a hotbed for chronic diseases.

eProfit combines all the features of the best existing pay-per-click, pay-per-lead/sale and pay-per-impression sales networks, providing the full spectrum of actions for which commissions can be assigned and tracked.
Impression: The viewing of an advertising link or banner by the visitor of the affiliate's website. Commissions are calculated per thousand impressions and represent a fixed amount. Only unique impressions are counted at eProfit.
Hit: The viewing of a merchant's website after clicking on the advertising link placed on the affiliate's website. Commissions represent a fixed amount. Needs the hits tracker installed on all merchant's website pages.
Click: A click occurs when one of the affiliate website visitors clicks on the merchant's advertising link. Fixed amount. Merchants should not use this type of commissions in case the verified click is used.
Lead: A lead is an action performed on a merchant's website by a visitor who came from an affiliate's website by clicking on an advertising link. This action can be, for example, a registration, a download, a subscription, filling out the form etc. Sales are not considered as leads and constitute a separate action. The leads tracker needs to be placed on the thank-you / confirmation page of a merchant's website. Commissions for this action represent a fixed amount.
Sale: A transaction/purchase effected on merchant's website by a visitor who came from an affiliate's website by clicking on an advertising link. The commission rate for this action may constitute a fixed amount or a percentage or both of them. In this last case the highest number is counted. The sales tracker must be installed on the purchase confirmation/thank-you page. A sale must occur in up to 30 days after the click for the action to be tracked. This time period is the standard cookie duration at eProfit.
Preorder: Analog of "Sale" action. This action can be used by the merchant if the payment for the purchase effected on the merchant's website is taken after the purchase was initiated on the merchant's website. In this situation it is impossible to confirm the sale immediately, e. g. the purchase can be cancelled by the customer, the purchase amount can change etc. Although, it is possible to track such actions.
The merchant has to specify the commission amount for "sales" and place the preorders tracker on the order confirmation/thank-you page of the his/her website. To place the preorder tracker, the merchant will have to specify the commission for this action (it can be a very small amount, for example 0.001 cents). After the payment was received the merchant reports it to eProfit by completing the form with sale ID and amount. The form can be accessed by clicking on the "Export Sales" button in the right menu of his/her program details page. It is recommended to do this daily. The commissions are paid to the affiliates only after sales are confirmed by the merchant. The commission amount that is paid is the amount confirmed by the merchant.
eProfit is currently working on more effective and easy ways of tracking this commission type.
Visitor: The merchant's site view by the unique visitor who came from the affiliate's website by clicking on an advertising link. Unique users are identified using browser cookies. Cookies at eProfit are stored for 30 days since the first visit. The hits tracker must be placed on all pages.
Verified click: A click on a merchant's link placed on an affiliate's website. The difference between click and verified click is that the verified click ensures that the visitor from the affiliate website has viewed the at least one page of merchant's website. The hits tracker must be placed on merchant's website pages in order to verify clicks. This action shall not be used by the merchants together with "click" action. Otherwise both actions will be tracked causing double rate for almost one and the same action.

Last week I went to see a late movie after work with a friend. Finishing quite late at 10.30pm, we had real difficulty finding good food at that hour. Knowing that Korean restaurants open quite late, we took the chance to try out Funny Funny, which has long been on my to try list. Situated along George street, we headed upstairs to the dining area.
Of course stopping to take a gratuitous picture of their infamous graffiti.
Grabbing a table on the loft, we admired the creative designs on the wall, no doubt by staff and customers.
As with most Korean restaurants, the menu was super extensive, and we had slight difficulties in making our choice that night. Service was by buzzer, but unfortunately our buzzer was broken and we had a lot of issue waving down staff. Additionally the loud music also made it quite difficult for us to continue our conversation.
Our side dishes that night comprised of kimchi, spicy tofu, sesame seaweed and pickled turnip. Whilst they were all enjoyable, my favourite was without a doubt the seaweed which was infused with fragrant sesame oil.
Being famous for fried chicken, we got a portion of the boneless KFC, half and half with soy and garlic. In all honesty, the chicken was quite underwhelming for us, for a number of reasons. Firstly the flavours were not very apparent, whilst we could taste bits of garlic and soy here and there, it wasn’t strong enough and wasn’t consistent. Secondly the chicken itself was a little soggy from some of the basting covering it, which really disappointed me (although my I didnt have as much regret as when I eat Momo and break out for two weeks afterwards). Portion wise, it was quite generous but I would prefer if they had KFC in a single size portion.
Our other dish to share was the Wagyu Beef bibimbap, which was even more disappointing than the fried chicken. The stone pot was hardly hot enough to even sear the beef, and the chef had completely forgotten to add salt to the dish. Otherwise the salads were fresh and the rice was ample.

Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential.
My motto in life has always been to try and pay attention to details no matter what — those small things that make life worth living. Why?
These days, our lives have become so chaotic. We run from one place to another trying to make deadlines, to be more efficient at work, more productive in life, to make more money, more “friends”, more children…. and the result is that more and more people in the world are reporting how UNHAPPY they are with this life because the quality of the life they are leading is not good enough.
Amassing riches while losing the life’s compass is not the way to live. So next time you are running to that meeting, stop and sit down for a moment and take in the world around you. Admire its simplicity and beauty. Breathe in the energy around and be grateful that you are able to witness that very moment in time. Give passing stranger a kind smile, hold the door for someone because you noticed that they were carrying too many bags and breathe out. Our life is happening NOW. Not in 15 minutes. Not tomorrow. Now.

PONTIAC — A nurse who claimed she was fired from a Dwight nursing home after she reported alleged abuse has been awarded $5.2 million by a Livingston County jury.
Katrina Wesemann was employed as a licensed practical nurse at Heritage Health in Dwight in October 2012 when she was fired by her employer, Bloomington-based Heritage Enterprises Inc., which operates 54 long-term facilities, including 53 in Illinois.
Wesemann alleged she was fired because she refused to follow orders from the facility’s director of nursing “to ‘drop a pill’ or double-dose agitated residents with anti-anxiety medications and refused to delete or omit records of suspicious injuries on residents,” according to a statement from Timothy J. Coffey, one of Wesemann’s lawyers.
The verdict included past wages and benefits and $5 million in punitive damages for the nurse who worked at the facility for about 19 months. The jury deliberated about two hours before returning its verdict last week during an eight-day trial before Judge Robert Travers.
However, A. Clay Cox, corporate counsel for Heritage Enterprises, said in a written statement to The Pantagraph on Monday, “We at Heritage Enterprises Inc. are deeply disappointed in the verdict delivered in the case of Wesemann v. Heritage Manor-Dwight, LLC.
The Naperville lawyer was part of a legal team that included Loevy and Loevy and Amanda S. Yarusso, of Chicago.
The jury sided with the former worker on all three counts brought under Illinois whistleblower laws that protect employees from retaliation for reporting improper conduct at nursing homes and other regulated industries.
Wesemann’s lawyers alleged that her firing was in retaliation for a call she made to the corporate hotline to report the accusations involving her supervisor.
Wesemann now works as a managing nurse for another long-term care facility, according to her lawyer.

Tributes have been paid to young Teesside mum Laura Hodgson who has lost her fight for life.
Laura, from Billingham , was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer last year.
The mum of two beautiful children died peacefully on Sunday with her "family by her side".
A Go Fund Me page set up to raise money for Laura's treatment raised almost £40,000 from hundreds of well-wishers.
Her family has praised the "overwhelming generosity" of everyone who donated to support Laura and said they planned to donate to the chemotherapy day unit at the University Hospital of North Tees and The Willow Trust.
Laura, who fought the aggressive disease until the end, was described as an "absolute warrior" by her family.
Her sister Michaela posted on social media: "It is with a heavy heart I am writing this.
"I would like to thank every person that donated, shared and supported our fight to support Laura.
"An angel grew its wings Sunday night after Laura had an infection which her body could not recover from.
"Laura died peacefully with her family by her side.
"Please respect this time for Laura's close family."
She continued: "With the overwhelming generosity of everyone who donated, as a family we would like to donate to the chemotherapy day unit at North Tees hospital and the Willow trust.
"Laura made a monthly donation to Cancer Research UK and I know would greatly appreciate some of the donations going towards finding a cure.
"We would like to use some of the money for a memorial to celebrate Laura's life.
"This is something her children, family and friends can treasure.
"If anyone has any objections to this, please request a refund through the gofundme website. Many Thanks, Michaela & Family."
Tributes have poured in for the keen sportswoman, including Laura's "netball family" who have said she will "never be forgotten".
South Durham and Cleveland Netball posted: "Deepest sympathies to all who knew her.
"Could we all please place a black heart and pink heart on our status to show our love and support to both the family and Harriers netball team, which Laura was a much loved member of."

Watch Sunday, November 17, 2013 at 1:30pm on WMHT TV.
American Experience presents JFK, a new four-hour, two-part special premiering in November 2013 in conjunction with the 50th anniversary of the president’s death. Forever enshrined in myth by an assassin's bullet, John F. Kennedy’s presidency has often defied objective appraisal. This new portrait, part of the Peabody Award-winning American Experience series, The Presidents, offers a fresh assessment of the man, his accomplishments and his unfulfilled promise. Produced and directed by Susan Bellows, JFKfeatures interviews with Kennedy family members and historians including Robert Dallek, Robert Caro, and Evan Thomas.
JFK provides a fresh look at an enigmatic man who remains one of the nation’s most beloved and mourned leaders. Beginning with Kennedy’s childhood years as the privileged but sickly second son of one of the wealthiest men in America, the film explores his early political career as a lackluster congressman, his successful run for the U.S. Senate, and the game-changing presidential campaign that made him the youngest elected president in U.S. history. With the benefit of recently opened archives, the film recounts his struggles with life-threatening illnesses and his efforts to keep them hidden from the public. JFK offers new perspectives on his complicated private life, including his relationship with his wife, his close connection to his younger brother, Robert, and his complex bond with his powerful father. It also reevaluates Kennedy’s strengths and weaknesses in the Oval Office as he navigated some of the most explosive events of the twentieth century: the disastrous failure at the Bay of Pigs, the urgent demands of an increasingly impatient civil rights movement, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the escalating conflict in Southeast Asia.

You can look forward to your visit to the Gene Autry Oklahoma Museum. The museum guarantees to bring back old memories of your Western heroes or make new memories of a very special part of America's history.
The Gene Autry Oklahoma Museum holds an outstanding collection of memorabilia of Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, Rex Allen, Tex Ritter, Jimmy Wakely, Eddie Dean, and others who appeared in the much-loved musical Western movies of the 1930s and '40s.
The Museum is located in the renovated school building in the tiny town of Gene Autry, Oklahoma, named for the famous actor/singer/recording artist and businessman whose ranch bordered the town during his golden years in Hollywood.
As we celebrate the 100th anniversary of Gene Autry’s birth and the centennial of the state of Oklahoma, it’s an ideal time to visit the Museum. There’s added excitement in the air this year as we pay special tribute to these heroes of the past and look to the future...and share the legacy of the singing cowboys with others.
The Museum is open each day, Monday through Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and is closed on Sundays. It is also closed the week between Christmas and New Year's Day each year.
To get to the Museum from Interstate 35, take exit 40 and go east on Highway 53 for five miles. Watch for the Museum sign on the right shortly after you pass the "Melody Ranch" campground and dirtbike facility (on the south side of Highway 53). Turn right (south) and go south 1.5 miles on Happy Trails Road. Turn east (left) on Tumbleweed Road and go about 1.8 miles east. You'll approach the museum from the back side of the building. Drive around the building, make a short turn to the left and park in front of the Museum.
From north or east of Gene Autry, you'll approach the town from the east. Just after the railroad track, turn left (south) and travel a few blocks through the small town until you see the sign for the Museum telling you to turn right. Go up the hill until you see the Museum (across from the Baptist Church) and park in front of the building.
The museum welcomes tour groups of all types and sizes. They ask that you call or e-mail ahead of time.

In comparison, Airtel Rs. 448 prepaid pack provides 1.4GB data every day for 82 days, amounting to 114.8GB data. In the same way, the Rs. 509 recharge offers 1.4GB data daily for 90 days, totalling 126GB of information. Other freebies are just like those of the Rs. 499 recharge.
Coming to the Jio Rs. 251 IPL package, users receive 2GB information every day for 51 days, 104GB data for the entire validity period. Though encouraged as an IPL program, users are free to use it to absorb content of any sort for the duration of the championship.
The BSNL Rs. 248 pack offers even more data each day with its 3GB daily information allocation. With validity of 51 days, this prepaid recharge provides a complete of 153GB. Users can only purchase this package by April 30, even though IPL 2018 continues for nearly a month more. But, unlike Jio and Airtel, the BSNL network is largely stuck on 3G speeds, and just Kerala circle subscribers get 4G speeds.

This is Bro. Travis and Earlene Harris (and their children Seth and Emma-Lea). This fine outstanding family is going to reach Belgium/Holland with the Gospel. Bro. Harris has a southern accent, and he is fluent in speaking Dutch. Imagine that!
This is Bro. Tony Hess and his wife Dawn. They are missionaries to Ukraine. They have returned to report to their supporting churches after four years on the mission field. It was a blessing to also get to know their children Marc, Josh, Caleb and Anna.
The Newmans, Ben and April. They are looking to go to Bolivia. It was a joy to have them since they are personal friends we met at Bible college (Fairhaven Baptist in Chesterton, IN).
Bro. Don Stertz is the founder of Baptist Couriers For Christ. They have been laboring to get Bibles into the former Soviet union for 28 years.
This is what our church looks like prior to the service. The flags make the auditorium look colorful. The each night we heard preaching from the missionaries, and they all did a good job speaking from the Bible. There were plenty of daytime activities and lots of stuff going on throughout the week. It was a good week! God really challenged our people to do more for missions through His church!

For a couple of years now, HTC has launched a proprietary case alongside their flagship smartphone (formerly the HTC One M series), which was known as the Dot View case. It was known as the "Dot View" case because the it was a flip case and the front was full of dots that allowed you to see various information on the screen of the device. It was a rather interesting concept, and one that wasn't hugely popular, but also not something that totally bombed. With the HTC 10 this year, they renamed the case to the Ice View case, and you can see more information on the display with this updated case. Now HTC has released the companion app for the case, which you can use to control what shows on the display.
HTC is allowing users to view the time, date, weather and battery level. All things that most people will want to check out, for sure. And it's especially nice to be able to do that without needing to turn on the display and possibly open an app. But there's more, you can dismiss alarms, view your notifications and even answer calls. HTC has a nice cut out on the front for the earpiece so there's no problem with people hearing you on the phone. Finally, HTC has added a two-finger gesture that can be used to open the camera app with the case on the HTC 10. So you can quickly take a picture without flipping open the case and then doing so. Making things much easier all around.
This case may not be anything all that special, considering other manufacturers do similar things with their own window cases, but you can't deny that this Ice View case looks much nicer than those window cases that LG and Samsung offer with their flagships. As you'd expect, this only works with the HTC 10, and it is useless without the HTC Ice View case, which is going to set you back $50. You can download the HTC Ice View app from the Google Play Store, it is free, you'll just need the aforementioned Ice View Case.

A collection of the critically acclaimed dark, weird and surreal short fiction of Ben Peek. It presents a world where bands are named after the murderer of a dead president, where the work of Octavia E. Butler is turned into an apocalypse meta-narrative, and John Wayne visits a Wal-Mart. It presents a world where a dying sun shines over a broken, bitter landscape and men and women tattoo their life onto their skin for an absent god. It presents Mark Twain dreaming of Sydney, and answers a questionnaire you never read.

Erin Ludlow couldn’t imagine spending her summer working in an office.
Instead, Ludlow, a sophomore marketing major, prefers to spend it working at a summer camp where she can spend her days helping kids, running around outside, playing games and working with her friends.
While many students spend their summers working at internships or typical summer jobs, such as food service or retail, some Pitt students use the extended break as time to gain experience in different types of jobs that provide benefits other than resumé building or money for monthly bills.
Internships and summer jobs help students attain skills like professional communications, technical experience and teamwork, Cheryl Finlay, director of the Office of Career Development and Placement Assistance, said.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the number of employed youth (ages 16 to 24) increased by nearly 12 percent from 2.1 million people to 19.7 million people between April and July 2013.
According to the report, the sharp increase in working youth is common during that time of year because students are finishing school and graduates are entering the workforce.
For students who prefer to stray away from internships and cash registers, there are many other money-making options, such as working as a summer camp counselor, an organic farmer or an au pair in a foreign country.
Ludlow said she loves her job as a counselor in training at International Sports Training Camp in East Stroudsburg, Pa.
Ludlow described ISTC as a “magical” place because she gets to have fun and help kids make lasting memories. She said she wouldn’t trade her time there for anything.
“For me, every time I get to go to ISTC, it’s like a kid going to Disney World for the first time in their life,” Ludlow said.
Katie McMullen, a senior English writing major, also worked as a summer camp counselor at the YMCA Camp Onyahsa at Chautauqua Lake in western New York.
McMullen warned that while being a camp counselor sounds like fun, it is still a lot of work. Besides taking care of a new group of kids every week, she also runs the rock wall at the camp — a huge responsibility because of its potential for danger.
Ludlow also had a warning for interested camp counselors.
“Don’t take being a camp counselor lightly, especially if it is at an overnight camp — it is a 24/7 job,” Ludlow said.
Ludlow and McMullen said they’re not in the job for the money, but for the experience. The mean hourly wage for a camp counselor in 2012 was $10.70, according to Careerbuilder.com, a website that compiles job listings and offers career advice.
For McMullen, the devotion has paid off and helped in her future endeavours.
McMullen said the time she spent at Camp Onyahsa helped prepare her for her new job at Teach for America, a non-profit organization that aims to eliminate educational inequality, where she will start teaching in the spring of 2015.
Other students see the summer as a chance to travel abroad without having to worry about classes and homework.
Morgan Walbert, a 2014 Pitt graduate with degrees in political science and history, spent the summer of 2011 after her freshman year working at Moulin de Braux, an organic farm in rural France.
Walbert heard about the opportunity through a friend who worked on the same farm the previous summer. She connected with the farm through World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms — an organization that connects organic farms around the world with volunteers.
As of 2010, WWOOF had 11,899 hosts farms and 80,014 volunteers.
Walbert said the fieldwork she did on the farm varied daily.
Walbert described her experience on the farm as demanding but interesting and, although the work was hard, it was extremely rewarding.
“I would definitely encourage people to consider this experience. It’s extremely unique and not many people have the courage to put themselves out there in such an unfamiliar situation,” Walbert said.
Nahja Martin, a 2014 Pitt graduate in political science, also had an international summer job experience.
Martin, a 2014 Pitt graduate with a degree in political science, was an au pair in Valencia, Spain, for three months the summer after her junior year. An au pair is a domestic assistant from a foreign country who helps with housework and child care in exchange for room and board. Martin found her host family through aupairworld.net, a website that connects host families and au pairs.
Aside from the challenges of living abroad with a family she met only recently, Martin said building a connection with the family’s 4-year-old daughter improved her experience.
“It’s taught me so much about myself that I don’t think I could have learned anywhere else,” Martin said.
Spending summers in jobs that take you out of your comfort zone can look good on a résumé, as well as strengthen a person’s character.
Finlay said that students interested in child psychology or teaching could gain meaningful experience working as camp counselors and that working on a farm could benefit environmental studies majors.
Experience related to students’ prospective career fields should be the primary goal, Finlay said.
“It should be every Pitt student’s goal to have at least one experience related to their field in order to be considered a competitive candidate for full-time positions,” Finlay said in an email.
Walbert said she hopes to eventually work in international relations, so her work on the organic farm is indispensable in her prospective field.
“Immersing myself totally in a foreign culture and language is definitely an experience that you can’t get at an internship or summer job in the States,” Walbert said.
Walbert said she mentions the foreign culture and language aspect of working on the farm in France during job interviews. She said that spending four weeks alone in a foreign country shows independence and a willingness to try new things.
As an au pair, Martin learned how to deal with setbacks in a professional environment. She also became nearly fluent in Spanish.
“I had been learning Spanish since sixth grade at that point and still wasn’t exactly fluent. I’ve come out of that experience with a much better grasp of Spanish and can speak fluently with just about anyone,” she said.
Ludlow also learned many professional skills working as a CIT, including responsibility, teamwork, leadership, communication skills, patience, creativity and how to make a killer friendship bracelet.
Meghan Dashe, marketing director for ISTC, said the staff learns a lot of different skills during the summer such as team building, problem solving and communication with adults of all backgrounds.
Dashe said she believes that working at a summer camp prepares staff members for a career later in life.
Like Ludlow and Walbert, McMullen said she learned many professional skills — customer service, time management and work ethic — throughout her time at her summer camp position.

The L Blanket visa is a regular U.S. work visa. Specifically, it is a temporary work permit that allows the holder to secure temporary employment. It can only be used to facilitate a corporate transfer of an employee from a foreign location to a U.S. site. In addition to a traditional postings, this visa category is also appropriate for business travelers who frequently enter the country or installers.
All the group’s employees can apply for a visa according to a simplified L application process to travel to company group locations that are covered by the L Blanket registration, which can be applied for through the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
The L-1 visa is tied to a business, i.e., the official applicant is the U.S. company seeking to hire the future employee. Under this visa the foreigner must work exclusively for the U.S. company that submitted the application. The only exception is so-called off-site employment, which allows employees to be deployed to customer sites under certain conditions.
When used for a planned staff assignment, it must be an internal company transfer. The foreign company (where the employee is currently employed) and the U.S. site (were the employee will be sent to) must be connected through a qualifying relationship. Sufficient proof of such a connection under the L Blanket method would be the fact that both business units are listed under the L Blanket.
The employee applying to receive an L-1 visa must have been employed at his or her current site within the group (outside the U.S.) for at least 12 months (continuously) during the last three years. Freelancers or consultants, for example, do not qualify for this category.
Only those employees who have worked for one year as a “manager, executive or “specialized knowledge professional” qualify for applying for an L-1 visa. In addition, the applicant’s proposed future U.S. position must also be classified as a “manager/executive (L-1A) or “specialized knowledge professional (L-1B).
Employees who receive an L-1 visa may continue to be paid by the foreign company or the U.S. site. A U.S. employment contract or a U.S. assignment agreement is not mandatory, but possible. The foreign assignment can also be performed under a foreign employment contract.
The initial application for an L-1A visa for managers/executives may be granted for a maximum period of three years and extended for 2-year increments for a total maximum of seven years.
The initial application for L-1B visas for specialists may be granted for a maximum period of three years and renewed once for two years for a total maximum of five years.
The L-1 applications are usually time consuming and expensive application processes, since they are divided into two steps: the initial application to the competent service center of the USCIS supported by extensive documentation and the issuing of the actual visa through the U.S. consulate.
that have submitted at least 10 approved, regular L-1 petitions during last year.
An entire company group can apply for an L Blanket registration with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). After the application is approved by the USCIS, all sites around the world that are listed under the L Blanket can take advantage of the simplified procedure.
In practice, this means that the L-1 processes can be implemented more quickly and more cost-effectively because the first application phase in the U.S. has been completely eliminated. L-Blanket visa applications can therefore be submitted directly to the U.S. consulates. Applicants must appear in person for an interview at an authorized U.S. consulate (usually in the employee’s home country).
Spouses and unmarried children under 21 years of age receive a derivative L-2 visa lasting the same period as the principal applicant’s L-1 visa. Once children reach the American age of majority (21), they must change their non-immigrant visa status or leave the country.
A spouse can apply for his or her own work permit (Employment Authorization Document EAD) that is not tied to a specific U.S. company.
Spouses and children with an L-2 visa are allowed to attend private and public educational institutions.

The Program Instrument is a set of documents describing operations of the program and the framework for implementing mitigation. It is also a legal contract among King County and the Corps and Ecology -- the parties to the instrument. Now that the program is "certified" (see history below) it is compliant with federal, state and local rules and regulations and will chart the way for King County to continue successfully meeting mitigation needs for unavoidable permitted impacts.
In Lieu Fee Instrument - Basic Agreement (PDF file 131 KB) This document outlines basic operations and establishes legal commitments and obligations.
In Lieu Fee Program Instrument – Technical Appendices and Exhibits (PDF file 3.1 MB) This document describes program operations in detail.
In June 2009, King County submitted to the Corps, Ecology, and EPA a program Prospectus which outlined the basic concept of the program. The Prospectus was made available for public review.
In December 2009, King County incorporated public comments and feedback from the IRT on the program prospectus into a draft Program Instrument which was submitted to the IRT for review.
In March 2010, King County staff and members of the IRT met to discuss the draft instrument.
Negotiations about program details continued through 2010, during which time the Program Instrument was significantly revised.
In June 2011, King County submitted to the IRT a Final Program Instrument.
In July 2011, the Corps and Ecology, with consent from all IRT members, issued letters stating their intent to certify the program.
In mid-September 2011, King County staff completed a State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) environmental checklist. On September 22, 2011 King County issued a Determination of Non-Significance (DNS) related to environmental impacts of certifying the program, after which there was a two-week public comment period. No comments were submitted.
In late October 2011 King County Executive Constantine transmitted an ordinance to King County Council by which the Council could then authorize the County Executive to sign the Instrument.
On March 12, 2012, Colonel Bruce Estok (the Corps) signed the program instrument, officially certifying the program.

From caves to huts to castles to blocks of flats, whatever kind of house you have, moving in and setting up a new home is always an exciting experience. Some have stuck to the common, ordinary house designs while others have creative ones that are rather strangely out of the box.
If you’re needing some inspiration to design your new home, here are some for you!
Once a fan of the classic cartoon The Flintstones? Maybe you’d eye this Flintstones-inspired house. This single-story abode in Malibu is priced at $3.5 million.
This portable wooden structure designed by Van Bo Le-Mentzel is the world’s smallest house at only a square meter. It’s been moving around Germany since its creation.
Bham Design Studio has transformed this old 100-feet high water tower turned Nazi hideout during the war into a lovely livable space.
This fairly large rock house in Portugal is furnished with a door, a chimney, and a window. Tourists have been flocking to its location for a closer look of this weird thing.
Our homes should be private, but if you’d like to show off to your neighbors what’s happening inside your house, this completely transparent house designed by Sou Fujomoto Architects is the one for you! It’s the modern version of tree houses, and it offers you much daylight.
On one side of this three-story house is a regular staircase while on the other lies a slide, which takes you all the way down to the first floor. Great for families with kids and for kids at heart!
Zecc Architecten gave new purpose to two abandoned churches in Utrecht, the Netherlands, and converted them into modern family residences.
Between two buildings is inserted the Keret House, which measures only 92 to 152 centimeters wide! If you’re single and do not mind the tiny space, this house will suit you perfectly!
Inspired by the work of Gaudi and Frank Lloyd Wright, this house is owned by a family with two kids. It is a seashell-shaped house designed and built for them by Arquitectura Organica.
Skaters can skate all day in this skateboard house as its surfaces, both indoors and outdoors, are designed for skateboarding.

Col John R. Bourgeois (USMC Ret.) will host his annual Picnic at his house in Washington, VA on September 14 from 12:00pm until whenever he kicks us out. This is an important event for the association. We will get the year off to a wonderful start in what promises to be an exciting and important year for the DCAAA. Hope to see you all there. Carpools will be available.
Saturday October 19, 2013 "National Walk for Wounded Warriors"
This will go from the Lincoln Memorial around the reflecting pool, and there will be some sort of marching band competition at the same time. Again we're looking for 5-10 volunteers. If you are in the military we are looking to form a team to actual participate in the walk (it's free to register), and are coming up with an excellent t-shirt design for this.
In an effort to promote more musical and service events this year, we are teaming up with an organization called Beethoven Found. Their mission is "Music Supporting Wounded Warriors & Other Charities." Some other charities include giving musical instruments to needy schools and children. We are currently working with them on two upcoming events detailed below. For both events we need volunteers to work the event, and I told them we could provide 5-10 people (between 4 chapters/associations this should be EASY).
Thursday Sept 12, 2013 "Funk Symphony Benefit Concert"
Bootsy Collins is performing with full orchestra to raise money for charity. Details are on the first attachment to this email "Bootsy Flyer 9-12" As mentioned, we would like to provide 5-10 brothers to volunteer their time, (as ushers, working the information booth, whatever). In addition to this, if anyone would like to attend you can buy tickets through the Beethoven Found link below (same info as attached flyer), or straight from Strathmore's website. The other flyer is sponsorship opportunities which provide you with a private box and I think a chance to meet Bootsy after the concert.
We will be holding officer elections on Friday July 26th, at brother Chris Sexton's house in Manassas. It will be followed by our social, in his & Brian's Speakeasy!! Please refer to previous emails for the officer nominations. We will be taking nominations from the floor also. Please note there are two different candidates for Secretary: Nathan St Pierre, and John A Davis. We will be starting at 7:30, however if that seems too early for brothers to get there, that can be pushed back. You don't have to be on time if you are not voting, but just coming to the social.
To be a voting member you must be a dues paying member. Otherwise you can discuss, but not actually vote.
It is that time of year to announce that the Dues for the DC Area Alumni Association are due by June 1, 2013. They are $75 and payable via our website, under the "Resources" tab on the left side of the page. These dues will cover June 1, 2013-May 31, 2014. Thanks for your continued support of your Alumni Association, and we look forward to hosting more great events for everyone to come to in the coming year.
Sunday April 28th, at 2pm, in Dover, DE. Carpools can be arranged. There is an 'event' on our facebook group that you can RSVP to. We would love to make a BIG presence at this!
Come join us for a St. Patrick's Day Celebration at PG Jeff Hoffman's house in Falls Church on March 17th from 3 PM - 6 PM!

About 120km northeast of Bangkok, the cultivated lushness of the central plains gives way to the thickly forested Phanom Dangkrek mountains. A 2166-square-kilometre chunk of this sculpted limestone range has been conserved as KHAO YAI NATIONAL PARK, the country’s first national park to be established (in 1962) and one of its most popular. Spanning five distinct forest types and rising to a height of 1341m, the park sustains over three hundred bird and twenty large land-mammal species – hence its UNESCO accreditation as a World Heritage Site – and offers a plethora of waterfalls and several undemanding walking trails.
Rangers discourage visitors from exploring the outer, non-waymarked reaches unguided, partly for environmental reasons, but also because of trigger-happy sandalwood poachers. The highly prized sandalwood oil is extracted by making cuts in a mature aloewood tree and collecting chunks of oil-saturated wood – which sells for B20,000–40,000/kg – several months later. Sandalwood trees are indigenous to Khao Yai, and though oil-collection does not usually kill the tree, it does weaken it. Guides can point out trees that have been cut in this way along the trails.
For many Thais, however, especially Bangkokians, Khao Yai is not so much a place for wildlife spotting as an easy weekend escape from the fumes. Some have second homes in the area, while others come for the golf and the soft-adventure activities, especially horseriding and off-road driving in ATVs, offered by the increasingly popular “dude-ranch” resorts. The cooler climate here has also made Khao Yai one of Thailand’s most productive areas for viticulture and dairy farming.
There’s camping and basic accommodation in the park itself, and plenty more comfortable options just beyond the perimeter and in the nearby town of Pak Chong. It’s quite easy to trek the park trails by yourself, but as some of Khao Yai’s best waterfalls, caves and viewpoints are as much as 20km apart, a tour is worth considering. Try to avoid visiting at weekends and holidays, when it’s busy; that said, even at peak times, don’t expect it to be like a safari park. Bring binoculars if you have them and some warm clothes, as it gets cool at the higher altitudes, especially at night.

Beverly J. Donovan was selected Wednesday as the Greater Haverhill Chamber of Commerce’s new president and CEO.
Donovan, the Chamber’s director of economic development since 2014, begins her new role Saturday. She succeeds Stacey L. Bruzzese who is stepping down to become director of marketing and new business development for Santo Insurance and Financial Service, Salem, N.H. Donovan’s appointment was approved unanimously by the Chamber’s board of directors.
As director of economic development, Donovan has partnered with many municipal, civic and volunteer organizations to secure grants, raise funds and awareness and promote their missions. She has also collaborated with economic development entities to advance projects in and around Greater Haverhill.
Before joining the Chamber, Donovan worked at Colliers International of Manchester, N.H., as a commercial real estate advisor, focusing on manufacturing, retail and office clients. In addition, she was active in both the Greater Derry/Londonderry Chamber of Commerce and the Greater Salem Chamber of Commerce, having served on both boards of directors and several committees. Donovan has been involved in several start-up ventures, including both for-profit and non-profit organizations. As a former small business owner, Donovan was an independent kitchen and bath designer/contractor, where she managed the full range of operations including marketing, purchasing, installation and demolition contracting, finance and quality control.
Donovan has also served as a two-term elected school board member in the town of Windham, N.H. She currently serves as an alternate member of the Salem, N.H., Planning Board. She resides with her husband in Salem and holds a master’s in Community and Economic Development from Southern New Hampshire University.
“We are excited that Bev has agreed to take on the role of president and CEO and we look forward to a seamless transition and keeping the Chamber’s progress and momentum going,” said Eric M. LaFleur , chairman of the Chamber’s board of directors.

Sparks, P and Shepherd, R (2002) The role of moral judgments within expectancy-value-based attitude-behavior models Ethics & Behavior, 12 (4). pp. 299-321.
Rational choice models are characterized by the image of the self-interested Homo economicus. The role of moral concerns, which may involve a concern for others' welfare in people's judgments and choices, questions the descriptive validity of such models. Increasing evidence of a role for perceived moral obligation within the expectancy-value-based theory of reasoned action and the theory of planned behavior indicates the importance of moral-normative influences in social behavior. In 2 studies, the influence of moral judgments on attitudes toward food produced with the use of genetic engineering techniques and toward meat consumption is addressed. The reasons participants provide for their moral judgments indicate some foci of their moral concerns. The results of both studies corroborate earlier findings that perceived moral obligation (moral norm) has independent effects on behavioral intentions; they also provide evidence that such judgments may affect attitudes themselves. The results are discussed in relation to the need for attitude-behavior models to reflect the role of moral evaluations in judgment and choice.

We’re approaching the 2018 Winter Olympics. Are you looking forward to seeing great athletes go for the gold? When you watch snowboarders race down a hill—and they roll, twist, and spin—you’ll see evidence of the Creator’s clear design and engineering of the human body. Truly, athletes display beauty in motion.

This article is adapted from a talk recently given at the Pebble Beach Authors and Ideas Festival.
On an early fall afternoon, five years ago, a rough-hewn wood crate the size of a grand piano arrived in West Los Angeles. The crate had been assembled by workers in Bristol, England, to fulfill a custom order: To transport the collective aspirations of a hundred people to make a change on our planet.
That aspiration for change had had its origin five years even before, in the center of the Pacific Ocean, mid-day, clear skies, flat waters. There, a woman named Jo Ruxton, who had been a producer for the BBC’s natural history unit, had gone in search of what was reported to be the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. She held the mental image we all do: An island flotilla of plastic, “twice the size of Texas;” if it was big enough and stable enough, maybe they could tie their ship off, walk onto it, and take some photographs.
Instead, they saw nothing but flat waters, open waters, unbroken surface, dark blue. Jo turned to the scientist-crew. They had brought with them an instrument called a manta trawl, which looks like a long sock, made of fine mesh. Think of it as a giant tea strainer. They submerged the strainer and dragged it behind the ship, then pulled it to the surface. There, within the mesh, were hundreds of fine plastic particles, some worn by salt and sun to the size of grains of sand. It turns out the Great Pacific Garbage Patch is not a floating island. Instead, the truth is insidious: It is a gigantic cloud of micro-particle plastic smog, below the surface. At that moment, Jo told me later, she knew what she had to do: she would make a documentary film about the state of our oceans and how plastic flows into them.
That journey would take the better part of a decade. She had never made a feature-length documentary before. She raised money and found a director, a Tasmanian journalist named Craig Leeson who was passionate about the oceans. She started a foundation to get non-profit financing. They shot some film and ran out of money. They shot some more film and ran out of money. This process repeated itself – it is the common process all documentary filmmakers face – until they had travelled pretty much around the world, shooting sequences and investigating problems and solutions. Then money ran out entirely. Everything they shot was sitting on hard drives in a storage facility in Bristol, England.
This is where I come into the story. Having had a career in theatre, then moving to become a senior executive at Walt Disney Studios, I had, most recently, been the President of National Geographic Films, a post I held for seven years. There I learned to make documentaries, and we had remarkable success with films like March of the Penguins. When you have been the President of National Geographic Films, even after you leave, you come into the information circuit of the most crazy, passionate people in the world, who are people who document our planet and its creatures.
To be clear, I am not an activist. I care deeply about our planet, about crucial social and political issues, but community organizing, politicking, building coalitions, pushing legislation – that’s not my super-power. The most significant super-power now – and one that I believe all of us have, all of us have, that’s why I am sharing this story – is to do something you love to do, something you find profoundly comfortable to do, and facilitate it for others you care about. Through that I express my activism. As we all can.
When you get a call like that, like the one Craig made, asking “Can you help us?” you dive deep, learn a lot, see what’s there, and eventually say Yes. Which is what led to that rough-hewn wood crate the size of grand piano. Four delivery men had carried it, and thudded it down on the floor.
There it is before you. You cannot contain your curiosity. You get your team together, find screwdrivers and claw hammers, and pry off the lid. Careful not to get splinters, two of you lift off the top. There, under straw, you find the treasure of months of filming around the world: One hundred hard drives. All in different formats. Without cables.
In fact, the crate contained two problems, and the lack of cables was the small one. The big one was that in the time since Jo had first thought about making this film, the media business had undergone a cosmic shift: it had moved from a business model where the most important players are not the people who make and control content. Now, the most important players are those who own and control audiences.
It is no longer about making a movie, or writing a book. It’s not about being a studio or a publisher, or an indie or a self-publisher. It’s not about being a content maker. The model has moved to audience owners. Amazon. Netflix. Google. Apple.
Let’s take a single movie as an example. If you’re going to make it – and let’s say you do get it made – you then have to market it, you have to find your audience, and convince them to buy a ticket or stream it. If you’re a movie studio you have to do that same process 15 or 20 times a year. It is costly and inefficient.
But if you’re Netflix, and you own your audience – Netflix owns us so much that we pay then $10 a month to own us – a new movie just pops up on your feed.
Creative life today embodies this paradox, the paradox within this cosmic shift. It has never been easier to make and distribute your work. But it has never been harder to get anyone to pay attention to it. There are something like 500 hours of video uploaded to YouTube every minute. A billion hours watched there every day.
It’s not that creative people need help with marketing. Well, yes, some do, but my point is that creative people need collaborators with everything. So many tasks previously done by the studio, the publisher, the broadcaster, are now downshifted to the creative people. These are tasks creative artists may not be perfectly suited to do. Yet we want their voices to be heard, their documentaries made, their songs sung, because creative work forms the fabric of our culture.
Better creativity, widely shared, makes our society better. Creativity doesn’t need an army, but it does need some profoundly committed collaborators. Creativity is a kind of asymmetric warfare. And no one does it alone.
Creativity is the catalyst for innovation. Everything that emerges, emerges from a creative idea. This page, this font, these words – they begin as human thought, thought that then emerges to become physical, powerful, powerful in the way that sound waves or light waves move through time and space to engage your physical being and change you.
Yes, change. Each movement of matter, each particle or wave, each emission of energy, changes those who receive it. At times the change is chemical, as when we react to smell. At times it is electrical, as when our neurons jump their electrons to form images we see or give sense to words. At times it is purely at the level of energy: spiritual force, feelings, emotions.
Creativity is also political. A matter that is especially momentous right now. Poets, if you know any, will not strike you as especially dangerous or threatening people. But authoritarian regimes put poets in jail. The creative act can be politically portentous.
What happened to those 100 hard drives? We finished the movie. We found a way to own an audience by reaching out to 250 like-minded NGOs and non-profits and working with them, so their membership knew about the film. We released the trailer, and with these partnerships we got 1 million views in 12 days; at which point, we secured distribution.
When A Plastic Ocean opened in 2016, it instantly became the Number 1 documentary in the US, Canada, and the UK. And it has not followed the normal decay curve for movies – it is still going strong. It is now available in 36 countries in 22 languages; the United Nations invited us to screen it; our State Dept. has made it available in American embassies worldwide; and it has influenced more than 100 legislatures to change laws, including California’s recent plastic bag ban. That is a remarkable result.
As I said before, I am not an activist; I did not, could not, do the cooperative organizing work it takes to get laws passed – I did what I could do, which is how I express my activism: I produced a film, something I love to do, something I am profoundly comfortable doing, and I facilitated that for creative people I care about.
When should we best focus on creative people? When they are adults, at college-age and beyond.
Not to diminish creativity and arts education in primary and secondary school. They are essential. They elevate everything. When, in the 1980s, California saw its high school math and science scores drop in comparison to the rest of the world, Sacramento cut school arts programs to divert more money to STEM – and math and science scores dropped even further. Most politicians move from ideology instead of data, from fear instead of from love, they see the arts as superfluous instead as the core of our society. Hashtag: Sad.
Why college and beyond? Because that’s where the creative impulse really gets beat out of people, in the common chorus of “be practical, go get a real job.” I say yes, let’s definitely be practical. Let’s be practical with our creative people. Which is why among the very big ideas we grapple with, we also need to bring things down to this seeming small item, the self, myself, yourself, asking this seemingly small question: What do you love to do, that you feel profoundly comfortable doing, and how can you facilitate that for the creative people you care about?
In 1968, an artist declared, “In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes.” Well, we’re 50 years on, the future is now, and if all of us would ask this question – “What do I love to do, that I feel profoundly comfortable doing, and how can I facilitate that for the creative people I care about?” – we would give artists the world.
I predict that in the next 15 hours, or 15 months, you will come across it. It will be in front of you, landing with a definitive sound. A rough wood crate, the size of a grand piano. What if, inside it, is the ocean?

Green energy, like other kinds of energy, has external impacts. One is annoying your neighbors, and yourself, with a noisy wind turbine.
Before wind turbines on every house can make a serious contribution to our energy needs, we need not only an affordable design, but a quiet one. This quiet wind turbine has a ring to reduce vibration, and keeps the noise under 35dB. According to Wikipedia, 35dB is the threshold for “general annoyance”, so this should probably be seen as a step in the right direction, rather than The Answer.
Unfortunately it’s not the most affordable green change you can make to your house either – at $10,000 for a system that might reduce your bill by up to 30%, it needs to come down drastically before it becomes an attractive option.
Who will take these developments the extra steps needed, to create efficient, really quiet, cost-effective windmills?

I hope everyone's had a good week! Are you ready to share your accomplishments for the week? Even if it's small, we want to hear about it! So grab your camera, write a quick post, and show off a little!
Today I want to share a special quilt with you, made for a special friend. Cindy, a friend of mine at church and member of the quilt ministry, gave up her days off over four months to go with me to my chemo treatments. Together we worked on binding ministry quilts while talking to the other people there receiving their chemo treatments. She turned what could have been at the very least a boring time, and at the worst a frightening and unpleasant one, into a pleasurable few hours spent in the company of friends. So I wanted to make a quilt for her to thank her for taking those hours that she could have used for much more pleasant purposes and spending them with me!
You may remember the Charlie Brown quilt I made a few weeks ago - this quilt is made by the same design. There is a tutorial by AmandaJean (aka Crazy Quilt Mom) that you can see here. It's super simple and easily adaptable for different sizes. This one is made with 30 WOF strips in prints (3 of each print makes one row) and 30 WOF strips in the background solid. It makes this quilt approximately 60" square, and even leaves a few blocks for the back of the quilt.
The fabrics in this quilt are some of the Denise Schmidt prints from Joann Fabrics and Kona White. The binding is a Michael Miller print, I think called Confetti. The colors blended very nicely with the Denise Schmidt prints, with a tiny pop of purple for spice!
I really had fun quilting this one - using the Juki on the quilting frame, I did strings of curlicues in each band of zig zags. It kind of reminds me of a string of Christmas lights!
I like the way it looks on the back, too. It wasn't very hard to do, unless I started thinking about which direction the loop had to go, then I almost always messed it up!
And here's the back in all it's glory - simple but pretty! Thanks for letting me share this special quilt with you!!
Link up and share your accomplishments!
PS - Remember that I'm going to have a really great giveaway when the followers counter hits 500 - only 6 more to go!! My adorable husband bought one item on my Christmas wish list twice, and suggested that I use the duplicate for a giveaway - and it's a really great item! So spread the word and be sure to join in when that number rolls up!!
What a special person Cindy is-friends like her are precious and rare.
Love the quilt you made for her and the quilting is wonderful. I'm sure it will be treasured.
Cindy is going to love this beautiful quilt you made! What a wonderful friend to have.
Sarah ... the quilt is AMAZING!
What a beautiful quilt. I'm sure it will convey a warm thank you hug to her each time she uses it. She may have found another use for the hours she spent with you, but I doubt if they would have been more meaningful to her than providing you with friendship and support.

I've been sent over to follow.
That is beautiful! I love the loopy quilting so much.

Sarah, what a beautiful quilt! This pattern is on my list for next year. I have had it bookmarked forever it seems but this year I am determined!
A gorgeous quilt! Already I've bookmarked the tutorial and am thinking of so many fabric variations that could be used. Thanks.
Just tweeted your follower request. Just 3 to go!
I love that quilt! I have a Sandy Gervais pattern called ric rac that has the same effect, but it is so many more pieces! I am going to switch gears on that plan, I think.
your quilt looks AMAZING! what a great friend you have...and what a nice gift this will be for her.
i've been thinking i need to revisit this pattern....it may be a good stash buster. i so appreciate the tips for how many strips to cut of each fabric to make a larger quilt. thanks!
ok, as if the comment isn't long enough already....love the colors you chose. the backing is FABULOUS, as is the quilting!
So glad you had such a wonderful like Cindy to spend the time and distract you from the chemo.
That is a beauty of a quilt. The design is striking and I love, love, love the colors you chose. So fresh! Thanks for sharing the quilt and the story behind it.
I'm new, number 498. Congrats on the wonderful quilt. Your friend will feel so loved.
Beautiful quilt and a lovely gift!!!!! It will be loved for a long time!
I love the quilt and I'm sure Cindy did too. Great colors and I like the way you chose to quilt it. Hope you are relaxing.
What a wonderful gift for such an amazing friend.
BTW, your counter is at 500!!
That is a beautiful quilt, and what a precious friend to come alongside and lift you up just when you needed it!
Nothing I can show this week, but I'm going to have something big to gush about soon!
It's beautiful! Happy Saturday. Hugs. P.S> please stop by Katherines Corner and add your lovely blog to my new blog list page ( if you haven't already) and don't forget to enter the Tis The Season Giveaway it ends tonight.
What a blessing your friend has been. I love the quilt. I really must put this on my some day list.
What a nice gift for a very sweet friend. That is great that she would go with you for your treatments!
Your quilt is lovely. What an awesome gift! She will LOVE it!
Love this quilt! I can't wait to make my own ZigZag quilt!
Pretty - love the loops!
What a beautiful quilt! Love the color and thanks for sharing the zig zag technique. Think I'll give it a try some time.

Height Zone World 67. My guest this week is Seth on Gray Street. Seth is a solo MC and also one half of the group Human Speakers. We first met when I saw his group open for Ghostface in Manchester, NH, and we’ve played many shows together over the years.
He talks about growing up in Farmington, NH and getting his hip-hop education by listening to WUNH’s hip-hop show. He tells me about cutting his teeth by tagging along with NH’s Def Rock, and forming Human Speakers with Eyenine. I spin a few of my favorite Seth of Gray Street tunes.

Ranking alongside taboo topics such as gun control and sexual education, mental health is undoubtedly heavily stigmatized. The mainstream media often exhausts mental health issues as scapegoats for many different issues. While the broad and diverse topic has not had a proper platform to be discussed on, times are changing. Mental health is starting to be acknowledged and accepted more and more. Erasing the Distance, a Chicago-based theatre organization, is dedicated to helping those affected by mental illness(es) in a creative and constructive outlet.
Heather Bodie, the artistic director for Erasing the Distance, spoke to Echo about her journey with the company as an actor and story collector.
What is Erasing the Distance?
Erasing the Distance is a Chicago-based organization that for the last 13 years has created safe spaces for storytellers to share accounts in their lives in which mental illness, abuse or addiction played a significant role. The interviews are conducted by accounts are transcribed by a story collector, who is an actor, who creates a monologue performance out of the words and experiences of the participant. The process is an alternative form of coping with and embracing mental illness. Since the company started in 2005, more than 250 stories have been added to their library. The group has performed for nearly 55,000 people in the past 13 years.
Courageous communication is achieved throughout the organization through a collaboration of the folks who work with us. This stems from speaking the truth at all times, even if it is coming from a place of fear, and sitting in that discomfort and knowing you are going to pull through. It is a way to engage on an internal level with the storyteller. The organization not only encourages its storytellers to be courageous but also sets up the story collectors to do the same through their training. As the topics discussed are very personal and very heavy, it would be no surprise that it can take awhile to get the ball rolling.
How can the story collectors make the storytellers more comfortable?
We work very hard to make sure that the setting where they share their story with us is safe and judgment-free. Comfortability is important in this setting, naturally, the storytellers want to feel as though their stories are being cared for. We train our story collectors to always work very consciously at being compassionate and eradicate their inherent bias around mental health stigmas and other biased ideals active in the world. When you can sit down with someone and have open eyes, and open ears and an open heart, something really amazing can happen.
What kind of training do the story collectors go through?
Throughout the entire process, the storyteller is in complete control. Consent is acquired no less than three times throughout the process. Once before the story sharing begins, after the story sharing ends, and once again after the conversation has been transcribed after storyteller has had a bit of time to reflect on what they have said. They can say hey you know I shared that story about my mother but upon reflection out of respect for her id like to leave that part out. At any time they can adjust or pull out of the project.
After consent has been achieved on all levels and the story has been transcribed into spoken text—the final element is learning how to portray someone in punctuation on paper. With the safety of the storyteller being the number one priority, a preparation checklist is given to the storyteller before they hear their story told. [We provide] breathing exercises, tools to aid them in processing strong emotions that may come up in the reading. Trigger warnings are very important in this process. For example, a story where someone has bipolar disorder and a story is told to them about a manic episode, the story collector will have space knowledge about how to read the room.

Michael William Coplestone Dillon Onslow, 7th Earl of Onslow, had a razor-sharp sense of irony, and it would be letting him down not to observe that, at the very hour the grandson of a Kenyan who served as a cook in the British army was standing before Parliament as President of the USA, his family and friends were gathered in a small church in Merrow, Surrey, burying Lord Onslow, young at 73, descendant of Richard Onslow of Blackfriars who became Speaker of the House of Commons in 1566.
As much as he would have enjoyed the irony of the double booking, given a choice, Michael would have opted to be in Westminster. He would have been a worthy presence there. For one thing, he was a lone voice back in 1979, writing to Margaret Thatcher and urging her to grasp the nettle of reform. He felt that the Lords could no longer justify ‘having members like myself who are there because an ancestor got pissed with William Pitt’-the peerage dated from 1801 when George Onslow was created Earl of Onslow-and he believed passionately that the House of Lords, with its expertise and unpredictability, provided the balance that keeps our democracy in health. His warning that if a Tory government didn’t reform it, a Labour government would ‘and do a botched job’ was prophetic.
There are many other reasons that Lord Onslow should have been there. He was fierce in his attacks on apartheid in South Africa, calling it ‘the tyranny and the bureaucracy enforced by stubby-fingered Afrikaaners’, and he spoke out against ‘passive racial discrimination’ in the Household Cavalry, saying that, in 30 years, he’d never seen a black face. More than most who crowded into the medieval hall last Wednesday, Lord Onslow, one of the 92 elected hereditary peers, truly had earned his place there.
In the sea of the great and the good, Michael would have stood out. For such a grand occasion, he would have worn his signature black pinstripe suit and pink-and-aqua Garrick Club bow tie, foregoing his seasonal alternative, a linen suit the colour of day-old gardenias. His sartorial flamboyance matched his verbal extravagance, an unstoppable flow of acerbic observation, humane politics, mischievous gossip and common sense.
He loved his wife, Robin, and couldn’t believe his luck at winning such a beautiful mate for life. He was never happier than when he was with his three children, and he managed to hang on for the wedding of his daughter Charlotte, getting her to the church in his carriage the week before he died. He confessed to his local vicar that, in his last months, he had never felt so loved by his friends and family. ‘What more can you ask?’ replied the vicar. ‘Another 10 years?’ came Michael’s instant reply.

Educators across the nation are constantly searching for new ways to prepare their students for the rigor of college and career. “Deeper Learning,” a framework established by The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, identifies the skills, understandings, and mindsets students need to succeed in today’s rapidly evolving economy.
To help educators develop the skills and competencies they need to support their students as they engage in Deeper Learning experiences, Digital Promise distilled the six strategies for Deeper Learning into 40 micro-credentials. These micro-credentials are organized into stacks based on their themes and approaches. Micro-credentials recognize educators for the skills and competencies they develop throughout their careers.
Each micro-credential includes multiple components: a description of a research-backed competency, a key methodology associated with the competency, and supporting research and resources. Each micro-credential also includes an explanation of the evidence educators must submit and the rubric and scoring guide that will be used to assess that submission.
For example, educators that want to help their students develop compelling writing skills can earn the “Clear Thinking and Writing” micro-credential. The micro-credential describes a research-backed instructional method for achieving this goal and provides educators a clear pathway to earning formal recognition for using it in the classroom.
All 40 micro-credentials are currently available for educators to explore. The micro-credentials describe many ways educators can start to implement Deeper Learning in their classrooms through concrete activities, approaches, and methods. Through these micro-credentials, educators – regardless of grade level or subject area – can identify, develop, and share new skills to engage their students in Deeper Learning.
We’d love to hear what you think: How can you implement Deeper Learning in your classroom? What micro-credentials would be most valuable to you? What skills do you want to develop to support your students?
Let us know in the comments below or by tweeting @DigitalPromise using the hashtags #DeeperLearning and #MC4PD.

The 22 month-old girl, Fidelis Muthoni from Makuyu in Murang’a county, Kenya who was suffering from frontal encephalocele underwent a free operation in Toronto, Canada to remove a bone growth on her face.
The Canadian doctors volunteered to operate on her for free when her father Kenneth Kinuthia met them in Kiambu county during a medical camp. Muthoni’s plight was highlighted when the family accused her uncle, Hope Foundation founder Joseph Wanjau, of misappropriating the ticket money.
The family said Wanjau voluntered to raise cash on social media to assist them but he later withrew the Sh2.8 million raised without their consent which made it impossible for Muthoni to be flown to Canada.
Fortunately, Kenya’s President Uhuru Kenyatta intervened and bought air tickets for mother and child to travel before the appointment was called off.
A Kenyan couple in Toronto – Irene & Joseph Maina – also kindly offered to host Martha & Fidelis for free, for as long as they needed. In addition, Irene who is a nurse by profession took it upon herself to transport the two and attend numerous pre-surgery consultative meetings and tests in preparation for Fidelis’s surgery.
Various reports and individuals have at different times erroneously cited Fidelis’s condition as a tumour. Now that the first surgery has successfully been completed and with help of some reports from her doctors, we can correct that. What Fidelis has is referred to as frontal encephalocele, a skull defect characterized by partial lack of bone fusion leaving a gap through which a portion of the brain protrudes.
These images are a 3D replica of Fidelis’s skull before the surgery. You will notice that she was missing the frontal bone (at the forehead) leaving her brain exposed and hanging on the outside.
The goal therefore of this recently performed surgery, known as anterior cranial vault reconstruction, was to enlarge her skull so that the part of the brain hanging outside could be pushed back in. After successfully doing that, the surgeons then grafted a bone from her skull to cover the opening so that she now has a forehead.
Part of the surgery is done and there remain other complex surgeries which will among other things involve residual cosmetic work that is needed to reconstruct the nose and bring her eyes closer together. Unfortunately, due to Fidelis’s age (22 months) and an infection that developed after this first surgery, subsequent surgeries will have to wait until she is much older.
On January 25, Fidelis was medically cleared by the team at Sick Kids, referred and accepted into the care of two doctors in Kenya: Dr. Bernard Githae, a plastic and reconstructive surgeon at Kenyatta National Hospital and Dr. Peter Wanyoike, a consultant neurosurgeon formerly of KNH and the one in charge of Fidelis’ referral.
Baby and her mother who is expecting her third child in March returned to Kenya on Monday, February 1.

On the menu, guests can enjoy a loveable lineup of classic and inventive sweet staples.
Five Daughters Bakery, the family-owned bakery and shop serving made-from-scratch doughnuts, pastries and treats, will open its second Georgia location at Atlanta’s Westside Provisions District this Friday, April 19. The shop joins the bakery’s first Georgia outpost, which debuted at iconic community hub Ponce City Market last year, and will deliver a daily assortment of handmade doughnuts and pastries crafted from fresh and locally sourced ingredients.
On the menu, guests can enjoy a loveable lineup of classic and inventive sweet staples, including Yeast-Raised Doughnuts stuffed with a variation of house-made jams, custards and creams, airy and caramelized Kouign Amaan “The Quinn” French-style croissant pastries and the coveted 100 Layer Doughnut—a deliciously decadent croissant-meets-doughnut hybrid that takes days to make and arrives rolled in sugar, filled with cream and topped with a heavenly glaze. Each month, the bakery will also feature limited-edition flavors inspired by the seasons. Like all of Five Daughter’s locations, the new shop will cater to those with restricted diets, offering Paleo Crushers, a wholesome and tasty treat made without grains, gluten, dairy or sugar, as well as egg and dairy-free Vegan Doughnuts.
Located on Westside Provisions District’s mezzanine breezeway across from Little Barn Apothecary, Five Daughters’ Westside space features an open walk-up counter to place and pick-up orders, both individually and by the dozen. Freshly made doughnuts and pastries will be on display through the shop’s expansive, glass-viewing windows, offering doughnut lovers and passersby a peek into the day’s selection of signature sweets. Bright and cheery white walls cleanly line the interior, making for a welcoming and joyful design to match Five Daughters’ standout service.
Believing in love, integrity and quality food, husband-and-wife duo Isaac and Stephanie Meek founded Five Daughters Bakery in 2015 to explore their shared passion for baking and to spend more time with family after leaving their corporate jobs. The two opened the bakery’s first shop in Franklin, Tennessee, and named it after their five biggest inspirations—daughters Maggie, Evangeline, Lucy, Constance and Dylan. In just four short years, the business has grown to six locations across the Southeast, including shops in Atlanta, Georgia, Franklin and Nashville, Tennessee and Rosemary Beach and Seaside, Florida.
