If you were injured on a job site, you might be unsure what you need to do. The Texas Construction Accident Guide was created by personal injury attorney Robert Rush to help residents maximize their settlement.
Were you seriously hurt due to someone else’s negligence on a construction site? You may be unable to return to work and provide for your family. Healing from these injuries should be your main priority, not dealing with insurance companies calling you and trying to get statements from you. Our Texas construction accident lawyers are here to take over the legal aspect of your case so that you can focus on getting better.
Construction Injuries in South Texas
Construction sites must follow state and federal regulations to ensure that workers are safe from certain preventable injuries. When a subcontractor, general contractor, or worker violates these regulations, he or she may be liable for any injuries or wrongful death suffered by a worker. At Rush & Gransee, L.C., we have significant experience in the investigation of construction accidents on behalf of injured workers and their families.
If you or someone you love has suffered as a result of construction site defects or construction injuries, we will aggressively pursue maximum compensation for injuries or wrongful death. Contact us for more information about construction accidents and your rights.
Contractors and construction site owners must carefully inspect the property and working equipment and conditions to ensure the safety of individual workers. Our attorneys have extensive experience with the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) regulations and will begin an immediate investigation of your case or claim to determine whether there was a violation in your case.
We Will Pursue Cases Involving:
- Scaffolding accidents
- Equipment defects or failures
- Dangerous tools
- Ladders, falling accidents
- Vehicular injuries, dumping injuries
Residential and commercial construction sites are dangerous places for workers and visitors. For workers, there are numerous hazards. If an accident happens, it can be hard to determine who is at fault and what the victim or their family should do next. If you or someone you love was involved in a construction site accident, you need to schedule a free consultation with our San Antonio construction accident lawyers. At Rush & Gransee, we assess your circumstances and let you know whether you have a valid legal claim. We can educate you on your next steps and help you protect your legal rights. Don’t wait to reach out to us. You only have two years to file your claim or it’s lost forever.
The Most Common Causes of Texas Construction Accidents
With the nature of constant activity, presence of machinery, the use of tools and equipment, and groups of workers, it’s certainly easy to understand why there is a higher risk of injury than other worksites. The most common causes of Texas construction accidents are:
- Human error of other workers
- Machinery and tools that have gone without proper maintenance
- Slip and fall accidents
- Falling from ladders or other high spaces
- Crushing injuries caused by material or equipment that is suddenly dropped or dropped in a way that is unsafe
- Defective machinery or tools
- Conditions that result in electrocution
- Collapse of a structure
- Vehicle accidents
- Exposure to chemicals and toxic substances
Should You Accept a Settlement Offered for Your Injuries?
Construction accidents can cause permanent and sometimes even deadly injuries. Like other types of personal injury accidents and worker’s compensation accidents, you could be offered a settlement by the insurance company or your employer. If you were a visitor to the site, you could be offered a settlement by the insurance company or the contractor(s) on site at the time your injury occurred. Should you accept it?
It’s tempting to accept a settlement offer. After all, you have expenses that you need to pay. You just want to get your life back to as close to normal as you can. Unfortunately, victims of these horrific accidents aren’t always treated fairly. It’s likely that you may not be offered what you need to pay for your current medical expenses related to your injuries, time off work, future medical care for your injury, and any temporary or permanent disability you may have experienced. In the most devastating of circumstances, families may not be offered enough to cover all of the expenses plus burial or funeral expenses, loss of income, and loss of companionship.
Before you agree to accept a settlement, you should have our team of Texas construction accident lawyers review the offer to ensure that it is in your best interest. If it isn’t, we can help you fight to get the money that you deserve for your injuries and suffering.
Who Is Responsible for Your Injuries?
Construction site accidents often are complicated. Determining the party or parties who are responsible for your injuries can depend on many factors. Were you a visitor? Were you a worker? If you were a worker, were you a subcontractor? Were you an employee? Do you qualify for worker’s compensation? Is it a matter of a defective product? Was the accident caused by another worker on the site? Were you provided with the proper safety equipment?
There are a lot of avenues that must be considered. While we are talking about a personal injury that relies on the concept of negligence, determining who is negligent can be complicated. There can even be more than one defendant.
Our Texas construction accident lawyers can help determine if you have an active claim and who may be responsible for your injuries as well as whether the proportionate responsibility law would also apply in your specific case.

Frequently Asked Questions | Texas Construction Accident Guide
What Should I Do After Being Injured?
Here in Texas, we have a lot of construction sites and a lot of construction site accidents. The first thing you need to do is report to somebody what happened and get yourself medical attention immediately. There are many aspects to a construction site accident case. It might involve your employer, it might involve other people, or you might be an innocent bystander walking by a construction site who gets injured. The first thing you need on your side is an experienced team who knows how to investigate all avenues.
Should I Notify Management of Injury?
If you’ve been injured in a construction site accident, the first thing you need to do is tell your boss. Call your supervisor, tell them what happened, tell them you’re hurting and let them get you medical attention. Most companies have Workers’ Compensation insurance and if you don’t report, it can prejudice your rights and you might not get the compensation you deserve.
Do I Need a Construction Accident Lawyer?
Here in Texas, construction site accidents can be complicated. You need an experienced lawyer who understands both your Workers’ Compensation rights, and your third-party rights against people that may have caused you injury. If you’re employer doesn’t have Workers’ Compensation insurance, you need to know that you have non-subscriber or individual rights against your employer. The only way to navigate those waters is to do so with someone who is experienced who understands the law and who’s been doing this for a long time.
What Should I Know About Insurance Companies?
If you’ve been injured at a construction site, one of the things that may happen is the company may hire a lawyer to come talk with you or an insurance adjuster may want to come talk with you. If it’s somebody from the Workers’ Compensation insurance, you should have somebody on your side. Those insurance professionals are not your friend. They’re trying to help the employer that’s paying the premium. The company’s lawyer is not your friend. They’re there to protect the company. You should be cooperative, but you should be cooperative with somebody right by your side, taking care of you and your interests, not theirs.
How Do I Hire the Best Attorney?
What you need to do is research. You need to look at a firm. You need to see if they have a track record. Have they been around for six, or have they been around 30 years? You need to look at the experience of the individual lawyer that’s going to handle your case. You need to know that they have handled complex cases. Do they understand how to handle cases when there are multiple responsible parties? An experienced lawyer is the difference between full compensation and less than full compensation. Give us a chance; come talk with us.
What Injuries Are Covered?
If you’ve suffered an on-the-job injury in Texas at a construction site, it doesn’t matter what the injury is; it’s covered. Every injury is treated differently, and the extent of each injury is treated differently. It doesn’t matter what happened to you; you have an avenue for relief.
How Much Will My Case be Worth?
Anybody that tells you the value of your case on the first phone call, or within the first month, you ought to be running away from. Nobody knows the value of your case until you know the full extent of your injuries. Nobody can tell you the value of your case until you know you are going to miss a week’s worth of work or you are going to be out of work for six months because you have to have surgery.
All of those things factor into what you deserve as full compensation, so the value of your case is full and fair compensation for every area of damage. You can only figure that out when you have an experienced team behind you who knows what to look for.
Should I Take an Early Construction Accident Settlement Offer?
When you are injured at construction sites, one of the things that happens very frequently is an insurance company will come in, make a quick offer, and put a release in front of you. People ask all the time, “I was injured here in Texas at the construction site and they’ve made me an offer. What should I do?” The first thing you should do is think; Why are they making a quick offer? Why do they want you to sign a piece of paper that says once you’ve cashed this check, your case is over? Nobody knows the extent of your injuries at that point. Nobody knows how long you’re going to be out of work. Nobody knows the impact your family’s going to have.
Can My Lost Wages Be Reimbursed?
If you’ve been injured in a construction site here in Texas, one of the biggest worries you probably have is how you are going to pay your bills and provide for your family. If you can’t work, you can’t get paid. The first thing you need to know is if there’s Workers’ Compensation insurance available. One of the things that Workers’ Comp provides for you is reimbursement of your lost wages. It’s not full, but it’s something so that you can at least pay your bills and take care of things while your claim is being handled. If your employer doesn’t have Worker’s Comp insurance, then you’re entitled through the general system, the way everybody else would, to full compensation for every penny you’re missing.
How Long is This Case Going to Take?
There’s no easy answer for that. Construction site injuries can be very devastating and the case can be very complicated. It might take a little longer than normal. There’s no way to say it’s going to take a week, a month, six months, or a year. What we can tell you is we don’t let the other side put unnecessary delay in front of us. We move quickly, and we try and get you to the endpoint the best and fastest way we can.
What Are the Statute of Limitations?
If you’re employer has Workers’ Compensation insurance, there are certain things that need to be done right away. Typically, within seven days, it needs to be reported. We tell people to report right away; don’t wait at all. If you don’t report the claim within seven days, your employer can dispute it and there are certain administrative guidelines that might affect your ability to receive full compensation.
If you’re employer doesn’t have Workers’ Compensation insurance, then you might have what’s called a non-subscriber claim. In other words, you can sue your employer directly if you get hurt on the job. Like most lawsuits, you have up to two years to bring those cases, but you need to report it early and you need an experienced team to investigate all of the facts and circumstances so that you can figure out where you can get your relief.
How Does Workers’ Compensation Help Me?
If you’re injured on the job and your employer carries Workers’ Compensation insurance, that’s your only avenue of relief. Texas protects employers in that instance. You can’t sue them for their negligence; you can only recover Workers’ Compensation benefits, which includes getting your medical expenses taken care of, getting a portion of your wages taken care of, and when a determination is made about the extent of your injury there are various forms of relief, either getting payments for a period of time or lump sum payments. If you’ve been injured on the job and there’s Workers’ Compensation available, you need to act quickly.
Am I Entitled to More Than Workers’ Compensation?
In a construction worksite injury case, if your employer has Workers’ Compensation, you’re absolutely entitled to go after it. If your employer doesn’t have Workers’ Compensation, you can sue your employer for their negligence. But that’s not the only way to go. Construction sites are complicated areas. They’ve got third-parties all over the place. Someone might have built a scaffold wrong. Someone might have provided a piece of equipment that wasn’t maintained and failed, and caused you harm. There are many avenues of relief. There are many ways to go after all of the rightful compensation when you’ve been injured in a construction site here in Texas.
Can I Get Third-Party Construction Accident Claims?
We get a lot of calls from people after a construction site accident and they say, it wasn’t my employer’s fault. You can and should hold the person responsible. If there is another company on the job site, if there was a piece of equipment that was bought from some other entity on the job site, if you were harmed because some third-party caused the injury, it’s not just your employer; it’s not their fault necessarily. You need to find who the right person is, who all of the responsible parties are, and then you can receive your compensation fully.
What Benefits Am I Entitled To?
If you’ve been injured in a construction site accident in Texas, there are lots of avenues you can take for compensation. Workers’ Compensation is one. That can provide immediate relief and get you medical attention and pay for some of your lost wages while you’re hurt and unable to work. In a construction site accident, there are many other people that need to be looked at. Sometimes there are other companies involved. Sometimes a piece of equipment malfunctions. Sometimes it’s simply defective. If you need help after a construction site accident, you need an experienced team that can look at all avenues to make sure that your compensation will be full and fair.
What Can I Recover For?
After a construction site injury, a lot of people wonder what they’re allowed to recover. Certainly, your medical bills and lost wages will be recovered. That differs based on whether there’s Workers’ Compensation insurance or not. Sometimes there are limits to what you can recover. Sometimes you can recover fully for everything that’s happened to you.
If there’s a third-party at fault, you are absolutely entitled to full recovery. That includes your medical bills, things in the future that are going to cost you for medical bills, lost wages, and wage-earning capacity. What that means is, if because of this accident you can’t do your job anymore, you’re entitled to compensation for that. Maybe you can only do a job where you’re going to make less money. You’re entitled to the difference. Maybe you’re injured so badly that you’re not going to be able to work any further. You are losing wages for the rest of your life that you would’ve earned to support your family; you’re entitled to that.

Whenever we stay at The Surfer’s place we usually go for a walk of some description. When I say some description, I walk and the kids scooter, bike ride or skateboard. The Surfer has three skateboards so he lends it to JJ on these occasions.
And JJ picked up skateboarding just like that. He’s well and truly used to scootering so that might help with the whole balance thing.
I’ve had a go on the scooter once or twice and not bothered to go back there.
When I was about 12 I went ice skating when we were on a school camp. I was the girl clutching the rails on the outskirts of the ice rink. On one of my rounds there was a group of about three boys in a row which meant I had to let go of the rail to get past them. I didn’t do too well and started to fall. To break my fall I grabbed one of the boys by his top. It helped to slow me down so the impact of bum on ice wasn’t as bad as it could have been but my red hot embarrrassed face nearly melted the ice. There was no graceful exit from this because I couldn’t just skate off.
So when I see JJ just take to the skateboard like a natural it makes me a bit envious that I was never able to do that myself.

It has been a while since Norwegian’s This Sect made something of an impact on home soil, not to mention reaching the perimeters of the UK with their debut album ‘Shake The Curse’ (2014). Since that period, the six-piece has been busy writing and recording, in addition to its various members pursuing other musical goals. Step forward however, and there’s a brand-new single, and promise of a second album in the offing. First song to be lifted from sophomore album ‘Everything We Know Into A Black Hole’ is ‘Stain Remover’. Instantly, the song reveals This Sect on a much subtler path than before, where it is clear the twin-turbo of vocals and guitar often highlighting the caustic, jagged edges of their debut record are toned down somewhat without losing any of the former’s close associations to such post-punk references as The Chameleons. ‘Stain Remover’ is the sound of a band moving on from this debut, but it remains a record that never forgets its past, with the difference being the understated way it goes about its business. Older and wiser therefore, but there is an anger that still simmers beneath this first single that becomes more apparent in the steady progress of its rhythm, which accumulates in layers and quickens in tempo and identifiable in the almost overlapping vocals and swirls of instrumentation. People friendly ‘Stain Remover’ most certainly isn’t as far as its words detail, rather a more telling sign of a figure scraping away at the innermost layers of humanity in the hope of finding something constructive. The wait, however, may be a while. ‘Stain Remover’ is the perfect response from a band which has taken an awful long time to reply to that echo that called out for a new release which, on this hearing, This Sect is certainly forgiven. Welcome back!

School of Law and Justice

Professor Pierre Horwitz
Water allocation is a fundamental part of water resources management. Water allocation is often a contested process because it involves multiple uses and users of water. Issues of justice arise when resources are, or are perceived to be, in short supply. When water is allocated the rules for the distribution of the resource may result in just outcomes for some stakeholders but may create injustices for other stakeholders. Issues of scale thus form an important component of water allocation. This thesis draws from an amalgam of ideas on justice, scale and water management and aims to present a conceptual framework that explicitly utilises an understanding of scale and levels as a means to enrich the concept of justice in the context of the water allocation. The discovery that there was no existing conceptual framework described in the literature that explicitly addressed and defined water, scale and justice simultaneously and in sufficient depth revealed the necessity to develop such a framework hence providing the primary impetus for this study.
Two scales – a regulatory and an institutional scale – were identified using a specific issue facing water management within the Murray-Darling Basin in Australia, namely Domestic and Stock (D&S) dams. The management of D&S dams currently falls outside the formal water entitlement framework for the Basin and presents a scenario of perceived injustice in that water share holders pay for their water and rely on it for their livelihoods while those accessing water for D&S use do not pay for it and often it is for aesthetic purposes. Five levels within the regulatory and institutional scale were found to be relevant to this issue and comprised the federal, basin, state, regional and local levels. These levels described the boundary of the system under investigation and they defined the scope of the study. They also provided the means to identify the relevant legislation, strategy and policy documentation at each level within the regulatory scale and the relevant institutions and key decision makers that were interviewed at each level in the institutional scale.
Content analysis techniques were used to examine five regulatory documents and ten interview transcripts; one document from each of the five levels within the regulatory scale and two interviewees from each of the levels within the institutional scale formed the primary data source for the study. The texts were coded, categories were identified, ideas were clustered and three themes were developed. These themes were entitled: Broadening the Scope of Justice; A Continuum of Justice and The Dynamics of Justice. Each of these themes provided a different perspective of justice and contributed to the development of a conceptual framework entitled The Cycles and Spirals of Justice.
This study explored justice through the lens of the issue of Domestic and Stock (D&S) dams. The issue of D&S dams was taken up by a number of institutions and addressed via a number of policies and regulations. As it moved through the various levels of the regulatory and institutional scales it was perceived to be dealt with justly by some and resulting in injustices by others. Justice is in the eye of the beholder! Politics and power shifted the D&S issue around the system; it was reframed by institutions along the way to suit their mandates and their cause. What was deemed as a just way of dealing with D&S dams at one level was deemed unjust at another.
Three justice for whom categories were identified and explored through the case study, namely justice for social, economic or environmental concerns. They were found to vary between the levels of the regulatory and institutional scale and their positions on each scale shifted under extreme water scarce conditions. The case study illustrated the interdependency of social, economic and environmental concerns, the need to be fully inclusive of all three concerns within a scope of justice.
Striving for or managing for justice is not a static act; if justice is achieved at one level, it might not be at another. What is often perceived as a just outcome at one level of one scale could result in injustices at another level or scale. It is important to recognise that there exists at each level a cycling continuum of justice and injustice, and that because we are dealing with issues in a complex system we need to be cognisant of the relationship between justice and injustice in the decision making process. There exists a distinct possibility that we might be unaware of the injustices that our actions at one level might have at another. I have developed a conceptual framework entitled the Cycles and Spirals of Justice that helps make sense of the relationship between justice and injustice in the context of the water allocation decision making by explicitly utilising an understanding of scale and levels.
This is a transdisciplinary study so it is hoped that the findings of this research will contribute to building bridges between disciplines, enhance the current understanding of the concepts of justice and scale in the context of water allocation and ultimately contribute in some small way to water being used and distributed more justly and sustainably in the future.

“Build, License, Buy or Steal?”
For many businesses abundant R&D and patent filings provide a good foundation for innovation and sales freedom. But that may be changing.
Information technology companies are learning what Big Pharma realized some years ago: a strictly internal pipeline rarely is sufficient to fill all of most business’ IP needs. This is especially true in fast-growing consumer industries like mobility and social networking.
Says Bruce Berman in his bi-monthly column, The Intangible Investor: “When it comes to patents, it is sometimes more efficient to secure what is needed from others rather than roll the dice on what a business might be able to generate internally or get away with legally.”
It looks like a new role for C-level executives and activist investors may be emerging, now that IP value is on their radar.
Does this mean that highly significant patent portfolio or IP-based acquisitions will not get done without them? Should they?
A new level of IP/financial oversight will likely be good for most large businesses. Let’s hope we are right.

ass yw dydh lowen = what a happy day it is!
Today in Cornwall, it is a happy day despite the rain and inclement weather. We have had the first rain in over a week and the garden will appreciate it even if we do not.
More importantly he is learning that digging in the garden is not going to make me lowen, nor is chewing anything which is hard and plastic looking.
He desparately wants to please, and competes with Murphy over bringing something to you but this leaves the paper wet and slighly chewed. Ah well, the joys of being a dog owner are outwitting your dogs before they do the damage.

By Elizabeth Fernandez | UCSF.edu | November 25, 2013
E-cigarettes have been widely promoted as a way for people to quit smoking conventional cigarettes.
Now, in the first study of its kind, UC San Francisco researchers are reporting that, at the point in time they studied, youth using e-cigarettes were more likely to be trying to quit, but also were less likely to have stopped smoking and were smoking more, not less.
“We are witnessing the beginning of a new phase of the nicotine epidemic and a new route to nicotine addiction for kids,” according to senior author Stanton A. Glantz, PhD, UCSF professor of medicine and director of the Center for Tobacco Control Research and Education at UCSF.
E-cigarettes are battery-powered devices that look like cigarettes and deliver an aerosol of nicotine and other chemicals. Promoted as safer alternatives to cigarettes and smoking cessation aids, e-cigarettes are rapidly gaining popularity among adults and youth in the United States and around the world. The devices are largely unregulated, with no effective controls on marketing them to minors.
In the UCSF study, the researchers assessed e-cigarette use among youth in Korea, where the devices are marketed much the way they are in the U.S. The study analyzed smoking among some 75,000 Korean youth.
The study appears online in the current issue of the Journal of Adolescent Health.
“Our paper raises serious concern about the effects of the Wild West marketing of e-cigarettes on youth,” said Glantz.
Despite industry claims that it markets only to adults, e-cigarettes have achieved substantial penetration into the youth market.
In the U.S., the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently reported that the majority of adolescent e-cigarette users also smoke regular cigarettes, and that the percentage of middle and high school students who use e-cigarettes more than doubled from 2011 to 2012. An estimated 1.78 million U.S. students had used the devices as of 2012, said the CDC.

[Editor's note: The following is an interview with Louis Navellier, Founder and Chairman of Navellier & Associates.]
MoneyShow: Louis, there are pockets of the economy that seem like they’re slowly, slowly, slowly getting a little bit better. Each week, it seems like the unemployment numbers are a little bit better. We just recently had a pretty good retail sales number that better than expected. But fundamentally, it’s still pretty slow.
Louis Navellier: Yes, and it depends where you are. If you’re in Texas, it’s booming.
MoneyShow: Right, or North Dakota.
Louis Navellier: Correct...We’re not hitting on all cylinders.
I worked for the Fed for four years. It’s fascinating to watch these Fed minutes, because under Greenspan, he shut them all up and he controlled everything. Under Ben Bernanke, he lets them go at it.
What’s happening is the doves, which are the do-gooders, they’re in control of the Fed now. But the hawks come in and say, "Hey, you know, so-and-so, you’re just making the rich richer."
If you own a home or you own stocks, they’re going up from all the Fed pumping, and it’s not really filtering down to create the jobs. When we do have a big drop in unemployment, it’s because we keep losing people out of the workforce.
MoneyShow: Right. They’re not looking for a job anymore.
Louis Navellier: Correct. Correct. So, you’ve got this thing where disability claims have exceeded payroll job growth every month for the last three and a half years, except for two months. You’ve got record food stamps.
The banks will lend money to people who have money, so the people that have money are buying homes to rent to the other people. I don’t think that’s what they intended. But the Fed is really struggling with this unemployment mandate they have, and it’s fascinating to see what’s happening.
All I know is the rich are getting richer, and the pump is on, and it’s a fascinating environment. Confidence is clearly getting better. It’s taking way too long. If you want me to be critical, the Fed’s blowing two little bubbles now. They’re blowing a little housing bubble; they’re blowing a little bit of a market bubble. But as long as they blow, we’re OK.
MoneyShow: Right. Well, is there a catalyst? I mean, I keep trying to think; is there a catalyst that will make us just jump to the next level? Because it’s just these little baby steps, and we just are like spinning in place.
Louis Navellier: It looks like it’s going to be very slow and steady. I mean, obviously what’s driven the market this year is whatever we were scared of — the fiscal cliff, the deficit ceiling.
Louis Navellier: A lot of these have been wag the dog events from manufacturing and sequestration. I mean, we’re still here. You know? We went off the cliff.
MoneyShow: Earnings are decent. I mean, they’re not barnburners like they were in 2008, but how could they be?
Louis Navellier: Correct. And also, whatever we were scared of; it wasn’t as bad as we feared. I mean, taxes went up, but not as much as we feared. And they’re locked in.
Now businesses can plan, and move on, and prosper. It’s just time to be happy. It’s not healthy to be depressed. You know, when you would turn on the TV late last year, fiscal cliff, fiscal cliff, and well, we’re all here!
MoneyShow: And if you’re in the market, you’re making money.
Louis Navellier: Correct. And life goes on.
I think it was good to get the election behind us. It was good to get the uncertainty over now. It’s just time to grow and prosper. I really like the market right now. I think it’s incredibly healthy.

The process of selling more policies than your competitor requires a huge amount of insurance selling experience, luck, and the ability to handle customers. Even though there is no other way than hard work to succeed in the insurance industry, but there are some practical and productive tips that you could use to sell more numbers during this pandemic situation.
This article will take you through some of the most recommended tips for selling insurance policies during this Covid19 affected period.
#1: Embrace the new marketing ways of digital and social media
Well, if you are still following the old-school way, then it’s time to rethink the possibilities. Being a responsible broker, you have to explore the unlimited possibilities of digital and social media marketing.
It’s not because of its scalability that you have to consider these options but the popularity these platforms have gained over the period of time is remarkable. If you invest more in digital platforms, then you will definitely be rewarded with what you desire; that’s the magic of social media and so-called digital platforms.
#2: Focus on retaining existing customers through continuous interactions
You very well know the importance of continuous interactions right?
Nowadays customers are exposed to a large variety of marketing and advertisements via digital platforms. So chances of losing them are very much possible. So if you want to retain them you have to make sure that you offer your availability when they need you and offer them continuous interaction on any insurance policies matters. Thus you can successfully retain your customers and build a healthy customer community.
#3: Make yourself available online for every queries and support
This is not just an extended version of continuous interactions. This is where your professionalism comes into play.
You may have given hundreds of promises at the time of business conversions. Your customer won’t ever forget any of them and they will definitely come to you when they are in need of anything related to the policy that you sold to them.
So it is your responsibility to make yourself available for them for helping them with their queries and other support. As a result of the pandemic situation, you may not able to help them with your physical presence. So you have to make sure you are available online for answering their queries and offering them necessary advice and support.
Checkout the best insurance broker management software right now!
#4: Prioritize emotional investments
Building emotional relationships with your customers is much more than necessary. Because of the pandemic situation, you can hardly pay your physical visit and register your support. So the only thing you can do is building emotional bondage with your customers so that they won’t remember you and they call you in times of need.
To accomplish this, you have to listen carefully to what they have to say, try to find a common ground, and take it there. Make sure you spend quality time with your customers and nurture a healthy bond between you and your customer.
#5: Standardize your customer support process
This can be done with the help of an insurance agency management system that helps you to successfully manage your book of business, staff, customer support, and other office administration activities effectively.
When you provide standardized customer support, people tend to feel the premium quality of services that they are receiving. This will automatically help you to build trust between you and your customers. This will help you to grow and succeed in what you do.
#6: Invest in branding your broking service
Branding has always provided a huge impact on your business no matter what you sell. As now people are locked up in their homes, for every choice they make they will look for the best one.
The “BEST” means the ones with has more brand value. It doesn’t matter whether it is a policy or a hand sanitizer. If you possess enough brand value, then people will start buying from you.
So being a foreseeing insurance broker, you have to foresee the brand image of your services and invest more time and money to build a quality brand image in the customer segment.
#7: Standardize your policy management process
The one and the only way to standardize your policy management process is by seeking the support of insurance broker software. It will help you to systematically manage your prospects, categorize and automate your policy management for a successful business outcome.

#8: Explore work from home possibilities
Work from home is now considered one of the best possible options if you want to continue your business process uninterrupted. But being an insurance broker, who always has to deal with customers, it may not seem a practical way of doing business. But if you could dive deeply into the possible options, with the help of any of the insurance broker management software, it is possible to manage your business tasks effectively and efficiently.
#9: Automate your claims management process
This is the very single point of business where all your promises get tested. Your customer values your commitments. If you could manage their claims experience clean and perfectly, then you have a bunch of prospective customers coming in, maybe as their references or by the way truth is nurtured.
Time plays an important factor in claim processing. Most of the time customers postpone the documentation submission due to the current issue they face. But you have to support your clients to react to their adjusters with any essential paperwork, information, or anything else as swiftly as possible.
If you have an automated claims management process, then it very easy for you to process the incoming claims, cross-check the documentation, and release the claim status.
#10: Never hesitate to ask for referrals
Referrals are one of the major business aspects that help you to expand your business verticals productively. When it comes to actual client handling, it may feel awkward to ask directly for references. The fact is most insurance professionals are not interested in asking for references. They feel that it is taking them away from their clients. They simply hate asking for referrals.
But if you want to be an expert in this profession, you must nurture the skill of handling the customers in favor of yours and making them offer you new potential references.

Passenger faces jail for incredible act
WHEN Elin Ersson thought a fellow passenger was "going to die", she decided to take extraordinary measures to try to help him. Now, she could face jail time.
The 21-year-old Swedish student live streamed footage of her incredible act on Facebook, which has attracted over three million views so far.
Ms Ersson bought a plane ticket between Gothenburg, Sweden, and Istanbul, Turkey, on Monday morning after discovering that a man was scheduled to be deported to Afghanistan on the flight.
The woman then refused to sit down until the 52-year-old Afghan man was removed from the Turkish Airlines plane, knowing the pilots couldn't take off with her standing.
During the teary 14-minute long live stream, the woman faced intense resistance from the crew.
She says: "The people here working are trying to take my phone away from me … a person is going to be deported to Afghanistan where there's war and he's going to get killed."
The strong-willed passenger continues: "They pushed me and tried to forcibly move me … I'm not going to sit down until this person is off the plane. Because he will most likely get killed.
" … I'm doing what I can to save a person's life."
While some fellow passengers were visibly frustrated with the delay, others applauded her move.
At one point an angry passenger tried to seize her phone and she told him: "What is more important, a life, or your time?"
Other fed-up flyers were told: "I'm very worried that a man is going to die and you're more worried about missing your flight".
Elin also records her interactions with crew members, who mostly ask her to sit down and comply.
To that she says: "He is going to die."
The crew member asks her how she knows that.
"Because it's Afghanistan."
Eventually, the man was removed from the plane amid cheering. However, authorities say he will be deported at a later date, and Elin could face fines or up to six months in jail for disobeying police orders.

An effort at the commonning of labor, management, design, production, profits during a 24 hour experiment.
Using resources available from the commons.
(an 8 hour work day, 36 hour delivery time).
In this experiment, we’ll come together and from scratch we will design, build and sell a useful product within a fixed period of time using collected, gathered and donated common goods.
What will we make: tables? bread? bags of dirt? mugs? Come and help decide. Profits will be collectively managed as well. All unsold things and unused resources will be returned to the commons (possible ground to dust).
This is an event between art and production in that there is an artistic process (creative play with the social and material) and a productive goal (the making of something to sell for a profit).
Drop by anytime to participate or come by in the afternoon to buy whatever useful item we decide to make.
Note…10 AM is the time when the work floor opens and initial production decisions (profit distribution work flow, labor distribution etc…) will be made. Stop by then if you want a say.

Click for bigger, screw-ballier.
I don't really have much to say about this one; it doesn't pose any mysteries like the last drawing I showed you from my collection. This is the original pen-and-ink drawing by Bill Holman for his daily "Nuts and Jolts" newspaper gag panel published on January 12, 1957 (but drawn, as a stamp on the back proves, in 1956). It's about 9"x11".
Holman is best known for his incredibly, relentlessly wacky "Smokey Stover" comic strip, as well as "Spooky," a side feature. In fact, that's Spooky the cat observing the goings-on in the right foreground. This panel shows the kind of giddy nihilism characteristic of his work.
One thing this original drawing shows that isn't evident in published versions of his comics is that he really labored over his work: the whole thing is a mass of chaotic pencil scribblings, scraped-off parts, and endless corrections and refinements. It's amazing that the finished drawing comes across as spontaneous and fresh as it does. A close-up detail of Spooky really shows the wonderfully spastic qualities of his technique:
Why isn't there a huge, multi-volume set of his work? Too nutty for most to take seriously, I guess. God, I love his stuff.

The Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive also give free admission to a number of very serious museums including, for example, all the museums on Museum Island, the Pergamonmuseum (€19), Hamburger Bahnhof (€14), Dali – Die Ausstellung am Potsdamer Platz (€12), Neues Museum (€12), Deutsches Spionagemuseum (€12), and the ever-popular DDR Museum (€10).
(No matter how or when you get your tickets for the Pergamon and Neues Museums, make free online time slot reservations on the state museums website – it may be done without buying or already having an actual admission ticket!)
In contrast to the cheaper Berlin Welcome Cards that are principally public transportation travel cards with savings on tickets to attractions, the Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive is primarily a good deal for the free admission tickets. Somewhat ironically given the name, public transportation for zones ABC may be added to the All Inclusive card (fairly cheaply too) but in that case a physical ticket must be collected from a tourist office.
Buying the Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive
The Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive may be bought online or at any of the Visit Berlin tourist information offices – currently at Tegel Airport (TXL), Hauptbahnhof Main Train Station, Europa Center (near the Zoo), Alexanderplatz and in the Brandenburger Tor. There is no Visit Berlin office at Schönefeld Airport (SXF).
If bought online, the Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive (without transportation) may be used as a print-at-home or smartphone ticket.
If the public transportation option is added, the Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive must be mailed or picked up at any of the Visit Berlin tourist information offices.
Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive Versions
The Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive is available for 48 hours, 72 hours, 4, 5, or 6 days. Get the best value out of the shorter versions by entering a major sight in the final hour of validity. The day versions are valid until midnight on the last day, so use early morning on the first day.
The prices (€) of the Berlin WelcomeCard All Inclusive in 2020 are:
|Validity||Transportation||No Transport||Child (3 – 14)|
All periods are available for adults (15 years plus) or children (3 to 14 years). Many museums give free admission to children up to 18 but the Wellcome Card All Inclusive for a child is a good deal for admission to the more expensive sites without cheap child and family discount tickets.
Given the name, it is somewhat ironic that public transportation must be added separately but this option does add considerable further savings. (The main reason is that transportation cannot currently be included in mobile tickets.) Transportation may be added to the adult tickets only, as up to three children are allowed for free onto Berlin public transportation with an adult pass. The transportation pass covers Berlin ABC – all of Berlin, including both Tegel and Schönefeld airports, Potsdam (Schloss Sans Souci) and Oranienburg (Sachsenhausen).
The card is automatically activated at the first moment of use. The transportation option is a separate paper ticket – stamp it in the yellow validation machines on buses or station platforms on the first time of use only. (After that simply show the ticket to the driver or inspector on request.)
At many museums, the ticket counter may be skipped – go straight into the exhibition area but note that the free audio guides at the state museums are usually picked up at a separate counter before entering the exhibition halls.
The Welcome Card is valid on consecutive days. Enough sites are open in Berlin on Mondays to not make it a major issue but on December 24 and 31 more research is necessary. On other holidays, including December 25 and New Year’s Day, most top sights in Berlin are open. (The Mauermuseum and DDR Museum, for example, are open 365 days per year.)
How to Save the Most with the Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive
It is easy to save with the Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive but a little bit of planning and concerted effort can easily enhance savings further to make this card an absolute sightseeing bargain:
Enter a big sight just before the 48h or 72h card is about to expire – once inside visitors may stay until closing time. Great options include the Pergamon Museum (€19), Neues Museum (€12), Alte Nationalgalerie (€12), or the Gemäldegalerie (€10).
See sights that are open in the evening at night – not only are the venues likely to be less crowded but it leaves the day free for more sightseeing. The German Spy Museum and Dali exhibition near Potsdamer Platz are open until 20:00 most days, the DDR Museum closes at 22:00 on weekends, while many of the Berlin State Museums (including the Pergamonmuseum, Neues Museum, Gemäldegalerie and Alte Nationalgalerie) are open late on Thursdays. The Berlin TV Tower opens early and stays open until around midnight.
Similarly, see free sights such as the Reichstag cupola early morning or late at night. Advance reservations are essential.
Although the best savings are on the free admission sights, it would be sensible to keep an eye on the savings options too. Good luck on not visiting one of the Ampelmann Shops, so a 25% discount on Ampelmännchen gummi bears (or any other souvenir for that matter) may be claimed.
Discount Tickets with the Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive
In addition to the free sights, the Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive also gives discounts on many further admission tickets, tours, boat cruises, concerts, adventures, restaurants, shopping, and events.
The biggest savings are possibly on theater and stage tickets (usually 25% discount) but often only on expensive seats and without much advance reservations. Absolutely worth enquiring though.
Base Flying am Alexanderplatz give the more adventurous a 25% discount – enough to cover a full day of the longer passes. Or save 25% on a visit to the zoo.
Most of the major museums not covered by the free admission part of the Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive give at least discounts. Save 50% on admission to the Trabi-Museum and Mythos Germany, or the Communications Museum (open late on Tuesday).
Try mental arithmetic to work out the 37.5% discount given at the museum for natural history or the fantastic Deutsches Technikmuseum (German Museum of Technology, which is worth more than the full fare.) Most museums give only 25% discount, including the ever-popular Mauermuseum – Museum Haus am Checkpoint Charlie (open until 22:00 every day of the year) and the Computer Games Museum.
The Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive also gives discounts on many sights in Potsdam (and an ABC transportation pass covers the train and buses there) but for the best savings, the card is best used at the free sights in Berlin itself.
The Berlin Welcome Cards are excellent value for money and especially on a first visit to the German capital the Berlin Welcome Card All Inclusive is hard to beat. It covers all the top sights in Berlin with either free admission or discounts – no other travel card or city pass offers more. For serious museum visiting the Berlin Museum Pass is the best choice – it gives admission only to museums and no further attractions or tours.

IN THE COURT OF SESSIONS FOR GR. MUMBAI
REVISION PETITION NO.______ OF 2009
In the matter under S.397 of Criminal Procedure Code
In the matter of dismissal of Complaint u/s 203 of Cr. P.C By 2ND ourt, Metropolitan Magistrate xxxxxxx, in C.C. NO. xxxxxxxx
In the matter of offence U/s. 3, 4, 5 of Maharashtra Ownership Flat Act, 1963
, ) ..Petitioner
) Orig. Complainant
1) The State of Maharashtra )
) Orig. Accused
MAY IT PLEASE YOUR HONOR
Being aggrieved by the order dated 10th April 2009 passed by Metropolitan Magistrate, 2ND Court, _______, in C.C. No.__________, dismissing the complaint of the Petitioner U/s.203 of Criminal Procedure code, the Petitioner is preferring this revision, challenging the correctness and legality of the order on the following amongst other grounds:-
G R O U N D S
- on the one hand the Learned Magistrate rightly concluded that clause 7(d), 7(f), 12 & 20 of the agreement to sale did not intend to create any right in favor of purchaser i.e. Complainant on the parking place, open place etc. and that property was remained the property of owner and developer until whole property is transferred to a society, the Learned Magistrate immediately thereafter contradicted himself by recording a finding that as per clause No.12 of the said agreement, the accused has every right to sell the open parking space to the Complainant;
- the Learned Magistrate failed to appreciate that open car parking space which was required to be transferred to proposed society as per the agreement, could not have been allotted to the Complainant for a consideration;
- the Learned Magistrate ought to have held that by allotting open parking space to the Complainant for a consideration, the Accused have contravened the provisions of s.3,4,5 of the Maharashtra Ownership Flat Act, 1963 and thereby committed an offence cognizable by him;
- the Learned Magistrate failed to appreciate that allotment of car parking space for consideration amounts to limiting the common area which has not been specifically mentioned in the agreement and therefore there has been non compliance of the provisions of s. 3 & s. 4 of the Maharashtra Ownership Flat Act, 1963;
- the Learned Magistrate has erred in coming to a conclusion that he did not find any illegality committed by the Accused by selling the open car parking space to the Complainant despite the fact that the open car parking space was to be conveyed to the proposed society free from any encumbrances;
- the Learned Magistrate has erroneously concluded that the dispute involved in the complaint is essentially of civil nature;
- the Learned Magistrate ought to have appreciated that disputes which are essentially of civil nature has been made a punishable offence by the special enactment of Maharashtra Ownership Flat Act 1963;
- the Learned Magistrate has committed an error by concluding that the Complainant has to file separate litigation against the co operative society for establishing his right over the said open car parking space;
- the Learned Magistrate failed to appreciate that the Complainant has no right over the said open car parking space purchased by him from the Accused for consideration in view of the fact that the Accused had no right to sell/allot the same to the Complainant;
10. the Learned Magistrate ought to have appreciated that the sale/allotment of open car parking space to the Complainant by the accused is in contravention of s.3 & 4 of the Maharashtra Ownership Flat Act 1963 and hence a prima facie case of commission of offence punishable U/s. 13, 13A & 14 of MOFA 1963 has been made out against the Accused;
11. the Learned Magistrate failed to appreciate that the ratio laid down by the Hon’ble Bombay High Court in the case of Ramagauri Keshvlal Virani V/s. Walkeshwar Triveni Co-op Hsg. Soc. Ltd. AIR 1999 Bom. 385 wherein it has been held that in the light of statutory provisions of section 4 r/w section 10 do not authorize the builder to sell the right over terrace of a building applies with equal force to sale of open car parking space;
12. the Learned Magistrate arbitrarily held that the ratio laid down in that case is not applicable to the present case;
13. the Learned Magistrate failed to appreciate that s. 3 & s. 4 of MOFA 1963 has laid down the various payment/sum/advances/deposits that can be collected by the Accused and that consideration for allotment of open car parking space is not one of them;
14. the Learned Magistrate ought to have held that collection of amount for allotment of open car parking space is in contravention of MOFA 1963 and there fore is a prima facie evidence of commission of the offence within his cognizance.
II) The Petitioner craves leave to add, alter or amend any of the forgoing grounds.
III) The Petitioner submits that no other petition has been filed or is pending in this Hon’ble Court or Hon’ble High Court at Bombay.
IV) The Petitioner submits that the order of dismissal was passed on xxxxxxx and a copy of the same was furnished to the Petitioner on xxxxxxxx and therefore this Petition is within limitation.
VI) The Petitioner therefore prays:-
- that the order dated xxxxxxxx dismissing the complaint of the Petitioner U/s. 203 of Cr. P.C. by Metropolitan Magistrate 2ND Court, xxxxxx in C.C. No.xxxxxxxxxxx be quashed and set aside after calling for the records and examining the same;
- that the Learned 2ND Metropolitan Magistrate be ordered to take cognizance of the offence and proceed against the Accused in accordance with law;
- such further and other orders as the Hon’ble Court may deem fit and proper be passed in the nature and circumstances of the case.
Dated : (Petitioner)
I, xyz, the Petitioner above named state and declare on solemn affirmation that whatever stated hereinabove is true and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief.
Filed on _____ day of ____________ 2009.

The Conservative Party has started its campaign of checking the quality of chips in every town in the country.
“I have been absolutely clear right from the start that the foundation of a strong economy is a good plate of chips,” she told the BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg.
“Historically, we’ve always been a nation built on potatoes and we welcome the diversity of modern potato products, like crisps and waffles, along with the more traditional formats, such as roast potatoes and, of course, chips. Not to mention jacket potatoes, which provide not only carbohydrates but also clothing for poor people.”
The Tory election manifesto is expected to include a whole section dedicated to lifting the nation’s pride in its potato-based heritage. “Who needs Europe when you’ve got an allotment full of potatoes and a plate of chips on the dinner table?” she asked. “And optional scraps at no extra charge. Where else in Europe do they treat you like that?”
But analysts believe that Mrs May is simply buttering up the people ready for Philip Hammond to introduce a new potato levy to help pay for Brexit.
Jeremy Corbyn has urged all vegetarians to vote Labour in June. “We must fight this evil potato tax,” he said.

Q I hope you can solve a puzzle about the pollination of hollies in my garden. I have eight American hollies, both male and female plants. A couple of years ago I added two new varieties, Oakleaf and Robin. I purchased them with berries and was told that the existing American hollies would pollinate them for future fruiting. This hasn't happened; the new ones bloom before the existing ones. Is there a male holly for these varieties?
AThe plants you mention belong to a new hybrid group called the Red Holly Hybrids. Many of them have new growth that is red, produce a heavy crop of berries, and develop a tight, conical habit without pruning. For any holly to be a suitable mate to your hollies, it must flower at the same time. Three different species were hybridized to develop this new group, but our native American holly, Ilex opaca , was not one of them.
Recommended male hollies to pair with your Robin and Oakleaf hollies are in the same breeding series. Festive and Little Red are males that can provide a reliable source of pollen for both of your females, since they bloom at the same time.
What would happen if I let the grass in my back yard grow meadowlike? Would it seed itself and fill in? Would I be able to cut it back at some point? Would my wife and children disown me?
If you stopped mowing, your grass would grow high, develop seed heads and form a meadow, but that would progress in a few years to scrubland and finally to woodland. Interestingly, this process leads to a more varied tapestry of plants, depending on minute differences in soil, slope and moisture. Native plants such as heath aster, goldenrod and bluestem find their way among the tall fescue. Weeds, including dandelions, plantain and ground ivy, will die out, unable to reach for enough light to sustain them.
Woody invaders appear almost immediately, and foreign invaders are among the most noticeable. Porcelain berry, sweet autumn clematis and Japanese honeysuckle weave their vines among the grasses, and brambles of multiflora rose and blackberry appear. Bradford pear, black cherry and tulip tree seedlings soon follow, unless fire or herbicide is used to keep the meadow sunny for its grasses and perennial wildflowers.
I'm sure your wife and kids will stand by you as the yard turns into tall grass. I'm not so sure about the authorities in your area. While I can understand that throwing away the mower might be a goal, you will first want to check with your homeowners association, city government and county government before you make the move to meadow. Many localities do not allow this kind of land management. If it is allowed, it is an option that is best suited to the five-acre suburban or country estate lot, not the dense, quarter-acre suburban yard.
Still, if you have the space and the setting, you should consider it. A meadow is best maintained by an annual mowing with a brush cutter, preferably in winter when the ground is frozen. Woody invaders should receive an herbicide containing triclopyr applied in the fall every five years or so. The rewards for turning a large expanse of turf into meadow are an ever-changing mosaic of texture and color that is enchanting on a breezy day, a haven for birds and wildlife, reduced soil compaction, and better filtering and absorption of storm water, not to mention the reduced consumption of gasoline and time spent mowing.

If you are having trouble navigating our search bar, you are not alone. My husband assured me when he implimented them that they were obvious and would be easy for people to understand. Well, I guess I'm not the only one who had trouble with them. I've received feedback from others who can't quite seem to navigate our nifty little search tool. For you these instructions are long over due and for that I apologize.
Each number on the list represents a new page.
Selecting [Next] will take you forward one page, to the next page in the sequence. Selecting [Last] takes you to the very last page of your search results.
The number of pages are included so you will have some idea where you are on the site, for navigational purposes. This will help you decide whether or not you need to narrow your search a bit by adding more search terms.
The Min, Max, -10 and +10 buttons allow you to select how many records appear on your screen at once. Increasing or decreasing the number of records displayed at one time by increments of 10. The main purpose is to allow those on dial-up to load the pages faster. The more records you choose to view at once, the longer the page takes to load.
Selecting Min gives you the minimum number of records allowable on the page, which is 10. Selecting Max allows you to view the maximum number of records allowable at one time, which is 100.
Clicking on any of the linked words located before each text box, allows you to sort by that category. For instance, clicking on the link for "Date" orders the list in ascending order according to the date. Clicking the same link again will reverse the sort order.
Clicking on the link for Host will sort the contents of the page alphabetically by article host, clicking again, will reverse the search order.
The filters are little trickier. They work in conjunction with the text boxes found below them.
To search for an article hosted on a particular site, such as: "Reliable Answers." Simply type the term into the text box next the word "Host", then click on "Filter" or press enter, this will allow you to bring up a list of all articles on the page hosted by "Reliable Answers".
Selecting the "off" button simply turns off any filters you have executed.
The article section provides the title of the article in the form of a link to the quoted article. This section includes the name of the company hosting the article, the authors name (when available), the publication date (when available) and a short teaser about the contents of the article.

Having a larger-than-average sized family generates a lot of questions from curious onlookers. Because I’ve been fielding the same handful of questions over and over as we travel the globe, I can probably guess what you’re wondering. So before you ask me, “Are they ALL yours?”, here are my answers to your most likely questions about our large family.
No, some are ours. The rest just follow us around and call us Mom and Dad. Seriously, though . . . yes, they are all the biological offspring both of my husband and me. We are not a blended family and none of them are adopted. Those are both beautiful ways to form and grow a family, but that doesn’t happen to be our story.
No, but I’ve always wanted to have twins. God knows best, and apparently, He thinks I’d be in over my head with twins. After our youngest two were born only 15 months apart, I decided that was close enough to twins for me. Somehow, 8 children just felt like a whole lot more than 7.
Neither. We are your generic, garden-variety Protestants who move around too much to claim allegiance to any one particular denomination. We are followers of Jesus, not a particular flavor of doctrine. We do not have a large family out of religious obligation, but because we want to. We believe God speaks truth and He calls children blessings, not burdens.Children are blessings, not burdens. #bigfamily #blessed Click To Tweet
No. I have 1 sister and my husband has 1 brother. Even our families thought we were weird at first too, but now they couldn’t imagine life any other way. We have boldly launched into new territory with very few examples to see how to make it work.
No. He wanted 2 children. I wanted 4. We compromised by multiplying! Actually, with each new child, God taught us something new and stretched us a little more, and we kept thinking, “Tiny people are so fun and amazing! How could we ever stop welcoming them into our family?”
The short answer is usually, “That’s not really any of your business.” though I don’t ever have the courage to tell the questioners that to their face. I certainly don’t mind discussing family matters with my mom-friends, but I am amazed at how many people are comfortable asking me questions about my fertility before they’ve even asked my name.
Please don’t be rude. If you don’t know a person well enough to discuss your own reproduction with her, then don’t expect her to fill you in on all the details about what’s going on in her body. Typically, our answer is, “We will take them as the Lord gives them.”
I guess homeschool and big families go hand in hand. In this case, we generally fit the stereotype. We pray earnestly about each individual child, for each particular school year, in each unique place God sends us via the Air Force. Each of our children has gone to public school for at least one year, some a little more. But mostly, we homeschool. I enjoy learning alongside my children and getting to see their “aha!” moments.
Okay, so this isn’t exactly a question. It’s a compliment with a qualifier. It’s like saying, “You run fast . . . for a girl.” Or “That’s not too bad . . . for a beginner.” I think people are genuinely trying to be complimentary; however, the unspoken assumption in this statement is that having children takes a toll on one’s appearance.
There are few things in this world more beautiful than motherhood. Don’t let anyone tell you differently. You can read how motherhood has impacted my body here.There are few things in this world more beautiful than motherhood. Click To Tweet
This is one of my favs! The person asking this question usually has an air of being very clever, as if he is the first person to ever think to ask me that.
Interestingly, I get this question only from men. I have only had one woman ever ask me this. I guess women give me credit for being somewhat intelligent.
There are so many interesting and fun ways to answer this question. I choose from a variety of responses depending on the person, the context, and whether or not I’m in the mood to have a little fun. Here is a sampling of the good times you can have answering this little gem:
Out of curiosity, What would your response be? Tell me in the comments below.
If this is you, don’t panic. While God gives us plenty of grace to handle what He’s called us to do, He doesn’t typically equip us to do what He hasn’t asked us to do.
No matter how many children you have, God has entrusted their care to you and now you must trust Him to equip you to be the parent you are meant to be.
Truly, the task of raising even one human being is a monumental responsibility. As parents, we are caretakers and nurturers of at least one person who possesses an eternal soul.

U.S. Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, will travel to New Hampshire in February to attend a fundraiser for former U.S. Rep. Frank Guinta's campaign to return to Congress. It comes after Chaffetz will make an appearance in Iowa.
Chaffetz is scheduled to attend a Feb. 19 fundraiser for Guinta in the Granite State. Details as to where haven't been determined yet.
Chaffetz is a conservative rising star who appeared often as a television surrogate for Mitt Romney's presidential campaign. It was an interesting move in the primary season given that he once served as Jon Huntsman's chief of staff when he was Utah governor.
In November he attended a fundraiser in Iowa for a country recorder who was active with Romney's campaign.

Most of us, at some point in our lives, find difficulty in believing our prayers or more so even just making time for prayer. Life is busy, we hurry through our prayers (when we remember to pray), our minds drift to thoughts of what’s for dinner etc. our focus is scattered and everywhere but on God. Prayer is simply conversation with God, no set time or location and minimal effort required and yet so many believers struggle with taking time to talk with God.
Lay aside all prayer formulas and simply be yourself with God. He has uniquely created each one of us to interact with Him as individuals and your prayer style should be consistent with the way He designed you.
Be yourself, approach Him with your own personality, your strengths, weaknesses and everything that is you. In the book of 1 Samuel we read a story of Hannah heartbroken and grief stricken as she was childless in a society that considered not having a child the ultimate failure. When Hannah cried out to God I imagine, she wasn’t on her knees with head bowed and whispering her petitions, rather the Word says she was ‘in bitterness of soul and wept in anguish’ (chapter 1:12) . God wants to meet with you, He wants to take you just as you are.
I recall a time of desperate prayer on my knees in the pouring rain as I ‘wept in anguish’, God answered and my journey of healing began in that desperate moment. God loves that we come to Him with our emotions, our hurt, our true self, just as a parent does with his child. I want my children to feel they can come to me with all manner of problems, not hide their emotions under a veil of fear.
When my daughters come to me and show dependence on me as the role of a loving parent, I feel fulfilled, my heart bubbles with love in that they trust me with their deepest hurts.
In similar ways, the parent child relationship defines the attitude we ought to have in prayer an attitude that focuses on God and expresses absolute dependence on Him as Father, the One who gave us life and who loves, cares for, provides for, and protects us.
Sometimes at night I hear my little girl praying, not some mechanical script, but words that flow from a heart of thanksgiving and faith in a Heavenly Father that ‘makes everything okay because He loves me’. God is not manipulated by long-winded, rehearsed babbling, but rather He is moved by our heart attitude, an attitude that seeks His presence… not His presents. Give it a go, He is waiting to chat with you x

…cemetery with Karl Marx and a several other dead people.
Highgate Cemetery’s famous for being the resting place for several major (Mr Marx) and tens of minor (Thomas Sayers?) celebrities from London’s past. If that’s not enough of a reason to visit, it’s also a great place to see expressions of individuality. Not so much from the people buried there, but more from the people who buried them. After all, they’re the ones who choose how you’re remembered.

WASHINGTON-- You could look at it as a filibuster without the bill.
After the last round of votes concludes Monday night, 28 senators plan to talk the night away in series of speeches delivered on the chamber floor, focused on climate change.
Although some call it a political stunt, the senators insist the event -- organized by the Climate Action Task Force -- will raise public awareness about global warming and how to stem it.
“So many senators coming together for an all-night session shows our commitment to wake up Congress to the dangers of climate change,” Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.), one of the founders of the task force, said in a statement.
Twenty-six Democrats and two independents are to participate.
“Climate change is real, it is caused by humans, and it is solvable,” said Sen. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii). “Congress must act.” He and Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.), the two organizers of the event, plan to give their colleagues a nap break from 1 a.m. to 6 a.m. when they dominate the floor.
A spokeswoman for Schatz, Meaghan Smith, said the task force does not plan to use the event to announce any new bills or concrete measures. “We’ll see” about introducing legislation this session, she said. “This isn’t a litmus test or anything.… This is really meant to galvanize momentum.”
Several top Democratic senators from coal-mining and oil-producing states who are facing competitive midterm races are conspicuously absent from the roster, including Sens. Kay Hagan of North Carolina, Mark Begich of Alaska and Mark Pryor of Arkansas.
Also absent will be Sen. Mary L. Landrieu (D-La.), who was appointed head of the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources this year amid complaints from environmentalists within the Democratic Party.
The all-nighter will begin after the last votes are cast around 6 p.m. and will open with remarks from four Senate Democratic leaders: Harry Reid (D-Nev.), Richard J. Durbin (D-Ill.), Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Patty Murray (D-Wash.). The senators will take turns speaking until 9 or 10 a.m. Tuesday.
There has been little talk of legislation to tackle climate change in Congress since 2010, when a bill to reduce carbon emissions died in the Senate.
But as they rev up for the midterm elections, Democrats are heeding the call of California billionaire Tom Steyer, who has pledged $100 million to back candidates with a program to curb climate change.
The campaign is intended to counter the Koch brothers, billionaire industrialists Charles and David Koch, who are behind some of influential political committees that have opposed legislation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Friday 29 May, 8.44pm (anchored at Port Vila)
After a month of life aboard, small villages, helping the medical team and interacting with the locals, our first 24 hours in Pt Vila is certainly one of contrasts and new perspectives.
At the quarantine anchorage yesterday, where we sat for a couple of hours waiting for Mr Q to arrive with his piece of paper, there was a small helicopter which came and went from a pontoon nearby doing 5 minute joy rides. As it flew in for the third time Bob declared … “I’d like to give that a go”. Well, this morning Bob was reading through the colour brochure for the said helicopter joy rides “Vanuatu Helicopters” and it makes interesting reading. Apparently they offer all sorts of flights …Adventure Flights, Romantic Flights and Scenic Flights – at all sorts of prices. (read “high” to “extremely high”) Going by the lovely photos in the brochure, I think there’s almost universal interest in the “Romantic Flight” but I suspect they ONLY supply the packed hamper and deserted tropical beach, nothing more. As the brochure says … “whether inspecting your property purchase, impressing someone with a dramatic entry to a restaurant, viewing an active volcano, flying down a jungle canyon … Vanuatu Helicopters knows how to find the real Vanuatu”. Need I say more…
Our first morning tied to the wharf here in downtown Port Vila dawned sunny and calm … and very sleepy. Don and Hugo came down from their onshore accommodation a bit after 7:00am to collect some gear for the lectures they are giving on eyecare to the Govt health workers and student health workers this morning and this afternoon. (Those guys have some energy)
From the cockpit we have been watching the boats come and go. And I’m not sure whether I should mention this, or maybe I should write it in code, but an Australian Navy ship chugged by around 9:00am with their crew lined up in their whites along the rail. (your taxes at work) I looked up the harbour and I noticed two more Australian Navy ships already tied up (so if anyone asks, don’t tell them you heard it here). Now I don’t want to start any rumours, but there might be something about to happen … maybe a retail assault on the shopping district, or a cricket challenge to Vanuatu’s regional supremacy, but with three ships in port it’s going to be big.
Will and Kathy have walked up the wharf to do their washing, Bob’s already been ashore to check out the internet cafe and Andrew and I have been sitting around making coffee and lists of tasks to be completed before Chimere heads north to transport the second medical team around central Vanuatu.
It’s been a lazy kind of day and with Andrew leaving on Sunday plus new crew arriving soon there’s a feeling of transition. Will and Kathy are planning to catch a flight north to check out some other islands in the next day or so and I’m making sure, as best I can, that things will run smoothly when I return home for a month (to Melbourne) next Thursday. Bob will be the main man then, ably supported by his long time sailing buddy, Jim Carpenter, a work associate of mine (and sailor) Tony Owens, plus long time friend Ann Shoebridge, and Jenny Williams who has considerable sailing experience. In addition, Martin Purcell will rejoin the crew when the medical team are picked up on 18 June (in Norsup, Malakeula)
Again, it’s past my bedtime and I’m struggling to stay awake.
I’ll have some more photos to upload – hopefully tomorrow.
Smooth seas, fair breeze and finding the real Vanuatu.
PS I heard there’s a cruise ship in tomorrow, so if you want to buy anything … do it today!! (A local tip)

Acupuncture Controls Overactive Bladder
Researchers have discovered that acupuncture is effective for controlling overactive bladder syndrome. The research team, a combination of Whipps Cross University Hospital and University College of London Hospital investigators, document that 79% of patients in the study showed clinically significant improvements. The researchers conclude that acupuncture is an effective treatment modality for patients with overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) and “is well tolerated with no side effects or complications.” As a result, the research team notes that acupuncture “should be considered as a potential alternative to our current therapeutic regimes” for patients with OAB.
Overactive bladder syndrome is a dysfunction of the bladder’s storage abilities that lead to a sudden urge to urinate. Symptoms include a sudden urge to urinate that is often difficult to control, involuntary loss of urine (urge incontinence), frequent urination (greater than 8 times per day) and waking at night 2 or more times to urinate (nocturia). Etiology varies and may include dysfunction of the kidneys, bladder nerve signals and muscle activity. Contributing and exacerbating factors of OAB include multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson’s disease, increased fluid intake, kidney and bladder organic disorders, diabetes, pharmaceutical medications and illicit drugs, urinary infections, enlarged prostate and increased consumption of caffeinated beverages.
The researchers note that acupuncture is safe and effective. All patients in the study had already tried conventional approaches to care: behavioral modifications and pharmaceutical medications including anticholinergics and beta agonists. Although surgical procedures are often part of conventional treatment regimes of care for OAB sufferers, all candidates were pre-surgical. The research team notes, “The aim of the study is to assess if acupuncture is effective in the treatment of patients with OAB in whom conservative measures and oral medications have failed, but are unwilling or unsuitable for invasive therapies.”
This study focused on three acupuncture points. This protocolized approach is common in scientific investigations and varies from standard clinical practice in which customization of the acupuncture point prescription is applied for specific diagnostic considerations. Despite the limitations of a standardized set of acupuncture points across all patients in the study, 79% of all patients showed significant clinical improvements. In a real-life situation, a licensed acupuncturist has the ability to adjust the protocol to meet the specific individual needs of the patients. As a result, a licensed acupuncturist can potentially exceed the success rate achieved in this protocolized approach to care.
Acupuncture was applied at a rate of once per week for a total of 10 weeks. Each acupuncture treatment session was 30 minutes in length. Acupuncture points SP6, CV4 (RN4) and KI3 were applied. SP6 and KI3 were needled bilaterally on the lower leg and ankle. CV4 (RN4) was needled on the midline and is depicted in the image at top of the article. The researchers note that the study began with the use of traditional manual acupuncture and later electroacupuncture was applied to the needles. Urodynamic studies and evaluations confirm that this regime of care is both safe and effective for the treatment of overactive bladder syndrome.
The researchers note that acupuncture has several benefits. It can be used for patients who cannot tolerate medications, acupuncture does not cause the adverse effects associated with OAB medications, acupuncture demonstrated efficacy where medications and behavioral therapy failed and acupuncture may avert the need for surgery as a corrective measure. Acupuncture provides an effective option to patients who have tried medications without success. In this way, acupuncture can potentially reduce the number of patients requiring surgery for OAB.

Huawei says it will allow "unrestricted access" to its software source code by "security cleared" Australians in a bid to dispel national security fears, but the Chinese networking giant wants all rivals to be subjected to the same tests.
The conditional offer comes as fears persist amongst Western governments over potential for Huawei's equipment to threaten to national security and follows Huawei's exclusion earlier this year from bidding for equipment tenders to Australia's NBN.
Huawei's offer of “complete and unrestricted access” to its equipment also follows the more recent release of the Intelligence Committee of the US Senate House of Representatives report that urged US organisations not to trust equipment from Huawei or ZTE.
Huawei’s offer of unfettered access to its software however hinges on a number of factors.
Chairman of Huawei’s Australian operation, John Lord, on Wednesday proposed a “national security evaluation centre” that would be operated by “security cleared Australians” in a similar fashion to one that Huawei opened in the UK in 2010.
The UK facility is overseen by a department of the UK’s intelligence agency GCHQ and is used to vet equipment the company supplies to BT, which is leading the UK's national fibre roll out.
Lord said the Australian facility should require equipment from all vendors, including those that have not been blacklisted from the NBN, be subjected to the same tests and that the industry jointly funds the facility.
“Huawei is willing to offer complete and unrestricted access to our software source code in such an environment. And in the interests of national security, we believe all vendors should be subjected to the same high standard of transparency,” Lord told the National Press Club on Wednesday.
Lord said Huawei had not yet discussed the proposal with its rivals, however pointed to the UK facility as evidence that government-led testing there was proof its equipment was not a threat.
“If the British security agencies had any issue with our equipment or our software, it would not be allowed in to the British NBN. And the proof is in the pudding,” said Lord.
Despite its long standing relationship, the recent concerns raised in the US have triggered an intelligence committee investigation in the UK into Huawei’s commercial relationship with BT since 2005.

La Poste has successfully launched its inaugural public hybrid euro transaction.
The securities, in a perpetual format for €750 million, have a first call date on the 29th of January 2026.
The issuance today follows a physical roadshow that took place from the 18th to the 20th of April with over 50 investors met in Paris, London & Frankfurt. After the transaction was launched this morning, the orderbook was rapidly oversubscribed, allowing to price at the tightest end of the indicative range for a final yield of 3.250% with a 3.125% coupon. This instrument will support La Poste’s balance sheet, reinforce its current rating position and allow the issuer to continue its current growth strategy.
The bonds were placed amongst 116 investors, confirming La Poste’s strong signature in credit markets.The important participation of international investors (40% UK/Ireland & 23% Germany) is testimony to this.
The instrument is expected to be rated BB by S&P and, as it was issued in line with S&P and Fitch methodologies, will hold 50% equity credit for both S&P and Fitch. It will also be treated as 100% equity under IFRS.
Barclays and Credit Agricole CIB acted as Structuring Advisors, while Barclays, Credit Agricole CIB, HSBC and Natixis acted as Joint Bookrunners.

Celebrities are just like you and I. They work, dine, spend time with friends and family, they exercise, they shop… the only difference is, sometimes they’re caught on camera.
Matthew McConaughey went for a morning run along the Hudson River in lower Manhattan in New York City, July 22.
Jennifer Lopez was spotted shopping at Barney’s on Madison Avenue Monday, July 23 dressed for the heat wearing a white sheer ensemble.
“Mirror Mirror” actress, Lily Collins was seen buying snacks in a pair of shorts and blue, purple and yellow breezy blouse at Whole Foods and heading to Target in Los Angeles, Sunday, July 22.
Mitch Winehouse and Janice Winehouse turned up outside their daughter, singer Amy Winehouse’s home in Camden England on the first anniversary of her death July 23. Mitch Winehouse has revealed he had a mini breakdown while editing the book he wrote on her life. The book, “Amy, My Daughter,” was penned to raise money for the Amy Winehouse Foundation. Mr. Winehouse said, “When I had to read it back for edits and mistakes I had a mini breakdown. I found it far worse reading it back.” More about this at the Daily Mail.
Tea Leoni to your right was prepared to shop at the Farmer’s Market Malibu in California July 22. Leoni and David Duchovny were seen earlier in July with their son Kyd, 10, in Malibu. Kyd wore a grass-stained baseball uniform, which is likely why the pair were together – to support their son, but the buzz out there wonders if the couple could be getting back together.
“Harry Potter,” “The Dark Knight Rises,” and “RoboCop” star Gary Oldman and his wife Alexandra Edenborough shared a romantic kiss while enjoying a swim in the sea together in St. Barts July 21.
Looking relaxed in a bikini, singer and actress Rihanna spent time in Saint Tropez France July 23, boating and shopping with a few friends. We hear Magic Johnson and his family, who had their yacht parked next to the singer were seen boarding the boat and later Magic tweeted, “We had a great time hanging with @Rihanna & her friends on her yacht.” The same day, before he boarded, Paris Hilton tweeted, “Just ran into my friend @MagicJohnson & his family at Chanel. Love him, such a nice guy. His wife & daughter are beautiful.”
Word has it Tom Cruise is searching for a luxury home in New York City in order to be able to spend more time with daughter Suri. Following his divorce with Katie Holmes, the actor retained visiting rights with Suri while Kate was granted primary custody of their six-year old daughter.
Cruise was seen earlier in the month in New York, holding Suri after spending the day together at Chelsea Piers sports and entertainment complex – first time together since the divorce. (Photo Credit: Michael Carpenter/ WENN.com)
Avril Lavigne showed off her figure in a flattering green Abbey Dawn bikini while snorkelling on holiday in Mexico July 23 with friends. The singer who was spending time on a yacht, left the yacht for a dingy with a girl friend and snorkelled around the sea of Cortez. Some are speculating that the female who had her arms wrapped around Lavigne may have been her date after her split with Brody Jenner. That or maybe she’s just a gal pal.

That can be a handy feature .. pushing the bike out of a river (motor won't start) and you cannot push it over a log/bump simply use the starter to get you over that hard bit.. not for continuous use though.
And Yes - the cluctch switches and side stand switchs on all of my bikes have been removed.. problems waitin to happen if you ask me.

I am looking to become a self-employed business consultant, who takes a commission solely on the profit I make the client. I am looking to get experience in this field by means of offering my services for free for the first couple of businesses I work with. My services are basically compprised of me analyzing the business and proposing business ideas to he owner of the business for growth. Do you think a small business owner would be willing to have a free "idea-man" working with them? fyi, I have an MBA. ANY input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Joseph Carre.

Several retail investors have adopted a dividend-growth strategy as a means to build strong and sustainable income. Many also depend on dividend companies in retirement, and financial stocks are key to Canadians, as they represent the highest weighting ont the TSX Index.
The dividend-growth strategy is growing in popularity as record-low interest rates make bonds and GICs much less attractive. One of the best places to start is the Canadian Dividend Aristocrat list. These are companies that have raised the dividend for at least five consecutive years.
Last week, we took a look at the many companies that either cut or suspended dividends. Thanks to recency bias, investors may not realize that the first quarter was also a strong one for dividend-growth investors.
In the first quarter, 40 Canadian Dividend Aristocrats raised the dividend. Thus far, we have looked at telecoms and energy stocks. Today, we look at the many financial stocks that raised dividends in the first quarter.
|Intact Financial||$ 0.76||$ 0.83||9.21%||02/05/2020|
|Manulife Financial (TSX:MFC)(NYSE:MFC)||$ 0.25||$ 0.28||12.00%||02/12/2020|
|goeasy (TSX:GSY)||$ 0.31||$ 0.45||45.16%||02/12/2020|
|Great-West Lifeco||$ 0.413||$ 0.438||6.05%||02/13/2020|
|Canadian General Investments||$ 0.20||$ 0.21||5.00%||02/19/2020|
|Guardian Capital Group||$ 0.15||$ 0.16||6.67%||02/20/2020|
|Royal Bank of Canada||$ 1.05||$ 1.08||2.86%||02/21/2020|
|Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce||$ 1.44||$ 1.46||1.39%||02/26/2020|
|Toronto Dominion Bank (TSX:TD) (NYSE:TD)||$ 0.74||$ 0.79||6.76%||02/27/2020|
|Canadian Western Bank||$ 0.28||$ 0.29||3.57%||02/27/2020|
The big banks
When the big banks reported quarterly earnings in May, all eyes were on the dividends. Would the banks cut or suspend the dividends? The good news is that all banks maintained the dividends. Amid all the noise, investors may have forgotten that several banks had already announced their annual or semi-annual dividend raises.
Toronto-Dominion is one of the few banks that maintains an annual dividend raise schedule. Since this financial stock began raising dividends post-Financial Crisis, it has put together a nine-year dividend streak. February’s 6.76% raise is likely to extend the streak to a decade.
It is worth noting that TD Bank has averaged approximately 10% annual dividend growth over the course of its streak — the highest growth rate among its peers. This is not surprising, as TD Bank has also grown earnings at the fastest rate. Likewise, it has the lowest payout ratio, and as such, it is among the safest dividends in the country.
For their part, Royal Bank and Canadian Imperial also came through their bi-annual raises. Unfortunately, don’t expect a second raise in 2020. The OFSI has asked banks not to raise dividends at this time. How long this will last is unknown, but it is unlikely that any bank will raise again this year.
A leading insurer
Manulife is one of the largest insurance companies in North America. In early February, the company announced an impressive 12% raise, the seventh consecutive year in which it raised the dividend.
Can it end the year with the dividend intact? Manulife was one of the few Canadian financial stocks that cut the dividend during the Financial Crisis. In general, insurers were ill prepared and earnings evaporated.
This time it’s different. Manulife is better capitalized and prepared to sustain a prolonged economic downturn.
An upcoming dividend star
One of the fastest-growing financial stocks is goeasy. The company has returned almost 200% over the past five years, and it is quickly becoming a very attractive income stock.
This alternative lender only joined the Canadian Dividend Aristocrat list in 2020, and has been raising the dividend at an impressive pace. The company’s 45.16% February raise is among the highest of all Aristocrats in 2020. In fact, the company’s five-year average of 29.5% is the second highest among all Aristocrats.
Even though earnings estimates are coming down, it is one of the companies in the sector that will actually grow earnings this year.
Are these financial stocks buys today?
The sector has been one of the hardest hit during this pandemic. Despite the current market optimism, many of the companies on this list are still trading at discounts to historical averages. Given this, financial stocks remain some of the best-valued companies on the TSX Index.
The big banks remain good investments and can be comfortably bought at any time. Manulife is among the cheapest insurers, and goeasy’s share price has plenty of room to run.
Renowned Canadian investor Iain Butler just named 10 stocks for Canadians to buy TODAY. So if you’re tired of reading about other people getting rich in the stock market, this might be a good day for you.

There’s no doubt that the state of Andhra Pradesh boasts some of the most interesting geographical features. With beautiful beaches, waterfalls, and verdant hills, its landscape never ceases to amaze me. But I have always found the most enchanting of all, is the luxuriant valley of Araku, tucked on the edges of the Eastern Ghats, on the western side of the state. Perhaps the most scenic and the greenest patch of this region, coupled with a pleasing climate, Araku Valley has always served as a respite for me, whenever I need a break from the monotony of urban life or just for an introspective getaway. More so, in the rainy season, when this valley area becomes a dreamy enclave with foggy hills and greener valleys. As a monsoon-lover, I make sure I make at least one seasonal trip to this tranquil locale.
So, a month ago, when the rains were at their peak, I planned a quick trip to Araku. I prefer renting a car for such trips and so, booked a dependable and convenient taxi from Vishakhapatnam to Araku. It was a short drive of 114 KM and took me about three hours to reach. Even the drive from Vizag to Araku was no less fascinating. I find this route to be the most beautiful part of the state and perfect for a road trip. One could just drive back and forth, without going anywhere, and still, feel revived.
By the time I reached the retreat in the heart of the Hills, the tiny hamlet was almost asleep under the blanket of a cloudy night.
Waking up in the arms of Araku
Next morning, I woke up to a relatively clearer day, much before my usual waking time. But when you are in a hill station, the mornings are the most beautiful part of the day and is the best time to explore and experience its real charm. Although there were no rains, the cloud still hovered on the hilltops, creating a surreal picture.
For those unaware, these hills and forests are home to numerous ethnic tribes, who have been the earliest settlers of the state and have a rich cultural contribution to the community. Some tribal villages also offer eco-tourism options for travelers to come and stay, and experience their traditions, see their artistic skills, farming techniques, and so on. But I had other plans, rather, no plans.
I went out to explore the hills on foot like I usually do, whenever I travel solo. The car came in handy when I had to go outside the main town and visit remote places.
As a trekking enthusiast, I love walking along the rocky terrain and nature trails. And the hill of Araku was perfect for that. The morning fog has still not cleared up and the valley was still waking up to the day. As I passed the villages, with the early morning workers getting ready for their daily chores at the fields and plantations. I walked along the slopes, along the mountain ridges, and down the grassy hills, smelling the smoky aroma of coffee and some wild herbs, which grew around the edges. Around the grasslands, colorful wildflowers were in full bloom, adding a touch of color, like prints on a green blanket. I continued walking, humming to a country song, and thinking of classic poetry. Perhaps, such environment evokes all the hidden creativity in people.
Later, I got my car to drive me up to the Ananthagiri Hills, right outside the edges of the valley. Ananthagiri makes for an integral part of the Araku Valley. Sitting at an altitude of over 1000 meters, and surrounded by hills, forests, and coffee plantations, it offers excellent views of the landscape. Nestled on the Eastern Ghats, and wrapped in clouds, these hills and their surroundings were a real treat for all the senses. For a convenient and hassle-free experience, I do recommend getting a reliable taxi service in Bangalore with transparent billing.
In my earlier trips, I have somehow missed a few scenic sites of Araku. So this time, I decided to make up for it.
So, next, I headed to Chaaparai, which is a waterfall. Locally called the Dumbriguda Falls, these torrential cascades flow in a crisscross manner across a table-like rocky landing and down a rugged slope, making for an interesting view.
I also saw the ‘fish pool’. Otherwise called the Masthyagundam, it was a watering hole, where shoals of different species of fishes would swarm every monsoon. It was so early in the morning that I couldn’t spot any tourists or even locals in the area, except for a bunch of village kids were trying to catch small fishes, with their bare hands, only to see them slipping away.
The day almost went by driving around, wandering through the hills, and randomly stopping for photographs. And thus ended my peaceful respite amidst nature, away from the maddening crowd, even if it was for a day and a half.

Andrew Wintner and Barry Goldenberg
“Middle School Harlem Historians: Researching Our Community and Improving Literacy”, Wintner and Goldenberg’s innovative teaching idea, is designed to increase students’ interest in history, use their new understanding and engagement in history to increase academic literacy skills, and expand critical-thinking skills. The program involves having students apprentice as youth historians in the field. Wintner and Goldenberg believe students must first see themselves in local history to become engaged in the study of history. The project gives students the unique opportunity to develop pride in their community and simultaneously, build feelings of interest in Harlem’s history. By following the curriculum developed by Goldenberg, a doctoral student at Columbia University, students will learn the skills of a historian. They also will learn how to research a library catalog and think like a historical detective. They will examine local archives and museums and travel to historical landmarks. Ultimately, students will produce historical research ranging from oral histories, traditional essays, and multimedia projects that will be shared with the community at the end of the year. Utilizing the local community in an academically empowering approach is inherently unique to the project. Wintner and Goldenberg believe their project will not only inspire students and develop a sense of self and community, but it also will cultivate a positive atmosphere conducive to improving vital academic literacy and critical-thinking skills.

The Odwalla beverage company launched its Plant a Tree program back in 2008 as part of a commitment to reforestation and preserving our nation’s state parks. Each year they donate money to buy trees to plant in participating state park programs at $1 a tree. Since the program was established, they have donated 160,000 trees.
This year, in conjunction with America’s State Parks, Odwalla will donate 200,000 trees, double their usual amount, to be planted in parks across all 50 states. From May 25 to August 15, visitors to their new website can decide where one of these trees will be planted by clicking on their state on an interactive map. In addition, a portion of the trees will be donated to 13 participating state park programs as allocated by codes that can be found in State Park Welcome Kits. Both processes are entirely free of charge. Facebook users can also spread the word to their friends and encourage them to donate a tree through the website to receive a virtual micro-forest planted in their name.
“It was great to see the overwhelming response to the Plant a Tree program in its first two years and we’re delighted to be able to expand its reach to all 50 states in 2010,” says Christ Brandt, Odwalla’s VP of marketing. “Odwalla began with a simple vision to make great juice, do good things for the community and build a business with heart. The Plant a Tree program is just one of the many ways we are able to recognize this vision today.”

As I cruised by the world's second-largest refinery, which sits squat on the east side spilling plumes into the air like a William Blake nightmare, I had an epiphany. I just penned a new book about the links between music and conscience, so the deaths of David Bowie, Prince and Lou Reed (just a few years back) feel like a disheartening blow to the music community...Yet, their real strengths suddenly gripped me. Though we live in the era of dead heroes, their codes of being, especially late in their lives, are worth emulating.
For a generation born throughout the 1950s and 1970s, losing this trio of proto-punk, art-rock and funk-soul pioneers is akin to losing a whole generation of trailblazing painters or cinematic auteurs in one fell swoop. Each of these mavericks represented a game changer of sorts, each adamantly “flipped the script,” each became a paradigm shifter who acted as a force multiplier. In the wake of their indelible songs, they enabled a million others to pick up instruments and seek visions often considered too outsider, too marginal, too unorthodox for a cookie-cutter FM radio mentality, which they reshaped.
They bestowed lessons aplenty, too, and not just of the musical variety. First, each subverted gender norms that are still quite shocking, even to some millennials. For instance, note the queer ambiguity of 1970s butch swagger in dark sunglasses Lou Reed; the free-floating, sexually bent, here-today-gone-tomorrow personas of David Bowie; or the pliable genderfuck of Prince, who could mesmerize a Super Bowl halftime crowd but never looked anything like a football player or a typical fan. For each, gender and genre seemed to exist in a state of flux or fluidity. They redefined both perennially according to their own senses of self. In comparison, recently felled icon Lemmy of Motörhead seemed like an über-hetero who played signature metal by the book, albeit with consummate whiplash style. He was the raspy, ragged daddy of jet-fueled rock and roll. They were idiosyncratic icons with a cause — do it different, do it bold, do it weird, don't be sold.
Bowie, Prince and Reed understood how to harness the potential of capitalism to penetrate the mainstream without shattering or crushing their own artistic vision, which demanded versatility, experimentation and honesty. They made music large and small (from grand ideas to sonic postcards), deeply personal (Bowie’s grieving swan song Blackstar) and somewhat impersonal and impenetrable (shards of his Berlin period), highly curated (Lou Reed’s Magic and Loss) and raw to the bone (Velvet Underground’s first album), both of-the-time (Prince’s pointed “Baltimore”) and out-of-time (Prince’s sorrowful “Purple Rain”).
Last, each became a philanthropic driver, evoking a moral core and shaping a humanitarian impulse that is often overlooked in rock and roll history-telling. In public, Lou Reed gigged for the Bridge School and the Jazz Foundation of America, Bowie was a keystone of the Concert for New York City and advocated for Keep a Child Alive, while behind closed doors, powerful Prince propelled Green for All and #YesWeCode. They saw hope in outliers – disadvantaged kids surviving the daily grind — and in real communities that can prove resilience is a powerful force.

Sure, each dabbled in debauchery (although "dabbled" may be a flimsy word here), and while two committed some irritating and troubling social pratfalls, especially cantankerous Reed (accused of racial slurs and sexism) and Bowie (once telling Playboy, "I believe very strongly in fascism"), Prince has been routinely admired for mentoring women musicians and attracting the respect of feminist fans. Yet, in recent memory, all had undergone a conversion of sorts. Prince joined the Jehovah’s Witnesses, Bowie found a spiritual partner and lover in Iman, and Lou Reed discovered tai chi and married equally enduring Laurie Anderson. A deeply rooted stability, a shared sense of power and attempts at serenity became the new normal. The Dionysian clichés of music culture mined in shows like HBO's Vinyl were well behind them as their music embodied even greater finesse, focus and rejuvenation.
Indeed, by the time of their deaths, behind these chameleons existed a profound conscience and consciousness worth knowing as well as any titanic lyric or guitar hook. That codex, which they left behind, will remain.
The Continental Club hosts a Prince tribute, "Party Like It's 1999," tonight featuring members of the Tontons, Buxton, Vodi, Mikey & the Drags, Dollie Barnes and more. Doors open at 9 p.m.

Early Orthodontic Treatment
It is never too early to keep an eye on your child’s oral development. Dr. Georgaklis will identify types of malocclusion: crowding, crooked teeth, bite and alignment problems. She intervenes to guide the teeth as they emerge into the mouth. Some of the interventions she performs:
- Providing appliances such as palate expanders and retainers to stop thumb sucking or tongue thrusts which can disrupt the proper development of the dental arches. This is best addressed before the age of six.
- Removal of primary teeth (“baby teeth”) to allow the permanent teeth to come into proper position. Allowing the proper descent and positioning of permanent teeth has a significant impact on one’s adult smile and may obviate the need for braces or lessen the extent of treatment.
- Placement of “spacers” to make space for incoming teeth and partial braces for alignment.
Collaboration With Orthodontists
Dr. Georgaklis works together with orthodontists in striving for an integrated approach in providing optimal care to a patient’s teeth and gums during the orthodontic treatment period. In addition to evaluating and treating teeth and gums, Dr. Georgaklis also extracts primary teeth if indicated as part of the orthodontic treatment plan. It is important that teeth are especially cared for during the period when braces are worn since the teeth are at greater risk of cavity formation due to the complexity of keeping teeth clean.

Three years after she separated from her husband, Bobbie Herron still suffers from his abuse. Last week she went in for another round of surgery, this time to fix the broken orbital socket and deviated septum he left her with after an attack in 2010.
For over a year, Herron has been working through the military system, appealing for justice against the Marine ex-husband she says routinely raped and beat her. To Herron it has felt like “a marathon that I ran in quicksand, getting nowhere quickly.”
As a civilian pursuing sexual assault charges against an active duty Marine who is also her ex-husband, Herron is caught between two worlds. She can freely express her frustration in public forums but has a very limited voice within the military justice system.
“From the very beginning it felt like no one genuinely cared or wanted to make it anything of prominence,” Herron tells The Daily Beast.
Up until a few weeks ago, when Herron contacted Protect Our Defenders, an advocacy group that helped bring attention to her story, she was at the end of her line: “I may be a sinking ship-but I’m going to make as many waves as possible so the rescue party can find me,” she wrote at the time.
But after a year of seeing her case languish, Protect Our Defenders got involved and put Herron in touch with powerful senators like Barbara Boxer, Joe Donnelly, and Kirsten Gillibrand, a strong critic of the military’s current system for dealing with sexual assault cases and the author of a sweeping reform bill that was recently defeated. According to Herron, all three senators have been in continual contact with her and launched investigations into her case.
There were 3,500 reported sexual assaults in the military last year, according to the Pentagon, up 43% from 2012. Some critics believe that the problem is a result of the military not adequately enforcing its own regulations. For reformers like Senator Gillibrand, though, the problem is deeper that and can only be solved by a fundamental shift in policy.
Gillibrand, who is preparing a new bill after her Military Justice Improvement Act was defeated on the Senate floor, advocates for independent military prosecutors to preside over sexual assault cases. Under current policy sexual assault cases are handled by officers from within the unit where the assault occurred, a situation that can breed conflicts of interest and environments that are hostile to those who report abuse. According to Gillibrand, her policy aims “to create more transparency, more accountability.”
“From the very beginning it felt like no one genuinely cared or wanted to make it anything of prominence.”
Immediately after the senators became involved in her case, Marine authorities suddenly expressed a newfound interest, according to Herron. She still worries that the investigation her charges launched will never lead to a military trial. But she now believes that at least she might be heard.
Reached for comment shortly before this story was published, Major John Caldwell, a public affairs officer for the Marine Corps, provided this statement:
“The allegations of misconduct are quite serious in nature. Our office is presently unaware of the described investigation; however, it is standard practice not to provide details regarding ongoing investigations in order to protect the integrity of associated processes and the privacy of individuals involved.”
Herron's ex-husband, of course, has not been proven guilty of any crime. At the moment, Herron’s accusations are still just that. But the very fact that over a year after her investigation began Herron’s allegations have still not been resolved through the military justice system points to how slowly the wheels of justice turn under current policies. It also shows how excruciating it can be for those involved to navigate through the process. Accuser and accused alike can be placed in a limbo without a clear sense of the next step in the process or what resources, if any, they can count on for support and resolution.
Back in March 2010, after her ex-husband, a Marine Staff Sergeant, allegedly delivered the beating that caused her recent surgeries, Herron got a military protective order against him. At the time they were living together on 29 Palms, a Marine training center in California. Within months, the military authorities and, this time the civilian police department, were called to the house again.
Herron was trapped inside her own home. It was May 2010, less than two months after the military order of protection had expired. She had locked herself in the bathroom to hide from her ex-husband, who she says had raped and choked her. She had wanted to leave before. But this time, Herron says she was determined to take her children and get out. As he allegedly banged on the door and screamed for her to come out Herron took pictures of her wounds and plotted how she would escape.
More violence and another arrest followed in June 2010. Despite it being his second arrest, Herron's ex-husband was never punished by his chain of command, she says. Military authorities confined Herron's ex-husband to a bachelor’s barracks, telling her she could use that time to pack and move with her children back to her family’s home in Indiana.
Three or four months after the second arrest, Herron reconciled with her ex and brought her children back to live with him on a different Marine base in California, Camp Pendleton. Herron says that she was dependent on her ex for child support and that she was encouraged that he might change by his willingness to attend counseling with her.
In counseling Herron's ex-husband agreed to attend the military’s Sexual Abuse Rehabilitation Program (SARP). The violence and sexual assault did not stop after he completed the program, Herron says.
Again the military police were called to their new house. In April 2011, Herron finally left her ex-husband for good. She took her children and moved back to Indiana.
While Herron has struggled to make the military pay attention to her case, her ex-husband has been promoted by his Marine unit, despite his record of violent arrests and the ongoing investigation.
At various points throughout the years that Herron and her ex-husband were living on bases while he served as a Marine, military authorities learned of his violence and abuse toward her, Herron says, but never took sufficient action to stop it from happening again. As the civilian spouse of a service member, Herron says that she was unsure of the protections and legal recourse available to her.
Almost two years after leaving her ex, and after encouragement from her current husband, a soldier and former police officer, Herron began pushing for criminal charges against her ex-husband.
Since first reporting the alleged crimes against her, Herron has been reassigned to three different agents from the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS). According to Herron, her first agent, who recorded her initial statement, told her, “You’re going to be portrayed as a vengeful ex-wife with some sort of agenda.” He promised to assist her through the process. Herron says she called him repeatedly after that day and left multiple voice mails but “I never heard from him again after the day he took my statement.”
But the investigation continued. The NCIS probe into Herron’s claims can either lead to one of two things: first, a recommendation that the case is dropped due to insufficient evidence; second, a so-called “article 32” hearing—the preliminary hearing that determines whether a case should go to court martial. Based on its findings, the NCIS offers the recommendation to a staff judge advocate officer in charge of the case who makes the final determination.
In Herron’s case, she was told consistently starting in November 2013 that the NCIS was recommending an Article 32. Herron says she heard the same thing from the officers assigned to her investigation in the staff judge advocates office.
Yet, after those repeated assurances, Herron was told by the staff judge advocate in charge of her case that he had recommended no Article 32 hearing and that the case be dropped for lack of evidence.
All that was before she began speaking with senators. Now it appears the Article 32 hearing may still take place after all. Herron protested to know why but says she received no further answers.
An NCIS public affairs officer declined to comment on Herron's case, stating that the agency “does not discuss open investigations.”
There were other legal irregularities in Herron’s case. Until she brought it up herself, Herron was never provided with a victim’s legal counsel (VLC), which she is required to have under federal law. After she brought it up herself and was appointed a VLC, the first question Herron asked her was “Why did it take a year for me to get a VLC? A day after I reach out to Washington suddenly you appear, but the week my attacker’s command is making their decision in this case isn’t it too little too late?”
That conversation occurred in late March; it is the last time that Herron spoke with her VLC.
The requirement for the VLC was part of a series of changes that were supposed to show the Pentagon could fix the military justice system’s procedures for dealing with sexual assault by itself—without the need for a more sweeping Congressional overhaul. As Herron’s case shows, even the more modest changes put in place have not yet been fully adopted. The next move in her case is, at this point, unknown.
Editor’s note: This article has been edited to remove the name of the accused in this case who is under investigation but has not yet been charged with any crime by the Marine Corps.

LANSING, Michigan – Mott Community College qualified for the national junior college men's cross country championship by placing third in the Region 12 meet at Grand Woods Park.
The Bears scored 88 points, putting three runners in the top 12.
Matt Proctor (Brown City) took eighth in 26:13, Nick French (Fenton) was 11th in 26:18 and Jalen Payne (Grand Blanc) was 12th in 26:23.
Rounding out the scoring were Jon Steinhoff (Grand Blanc), who was 23rd in 27:13, and Sean Reed (Powers Catholic), who was 34th in 27:46.
Lansing Community College won the 10-team meet with 41 points, followed by Vincennes (Ind.) with 82. Oakland Community College was fourth with 94.
The top three teams qualified for the national meet Nov. 12 in Hobbs, New Mexico.
The meet also doubled as the state championship, with Mott taking second out of eight teams. Proctor was sixth, French ninth and Payne 10th among Michigan schools.
Winston Stoody said that Proctor's time is the fastest run by a Mott runner for eight kilometers during his six years as coach.
"Oakland was ranked 12th and Vincennes 17th in the nation," Stoody said. "We weren't even ranked. We knew we had a shot at beating Oakland. We're fired up. All of our top guys and girls are coming back; they're all freshmen."
Mott will be sending two women individually to the national meet. Mayce Varacalli (Linden) took sixth with a five-kilometer time of 19:25, while Lindsay Taylor (Clio) was eighth in 19:38. Individuals in the top 15 qualified for nationals if their team didn't advance.
The Bears took fourth as a team with 125 points. Macomb Community College, ranked No. 1 in the country, won with 25 points. Lansing was second with 47 and Jackson third with 100.
Hayley Ladi was 41st in 22:05, Danielle Lockhart 47th in 22:26 and Samantha Mason 53rd in 23:05 to complete Mott's scoring.

I never redraw something that I've finished, even though I should sometimes...
I think it's just my eagerness to make a new drawing of a recent idea
that keeps me on new paths forward.
But the need to re-organize and change color palette for this one was big - It had to be done!
The new "Home Sweet Home" with detail pics below.
This is something new I'm working on.
Lot's of tree branches and an owl amongst other creatures (not seen here).
I've been working on this for sometime now. I'm just not pleased with it yet, but I'm getting there! Detail pic below.

Remember how I talked about this lady the day before yesterday? Well, I was trying to come up with something to make for her before she leaves for the mainland. I wanted to make a quilt, but there just wasn’t enough time. We’re still in summer at our home, so it’s BIZZEEEEE! She runs most of her business remotely, so I thought a laptop case would be practical. I just needed to find a way to make it sentimental. I have this fabric that I love. It’s actually home decor fabric that I got from Fabric.com for super cheap a couple of years ago. I thought it was perfect since it appeared to have a Hawai’i flair to it without being tacky. Anyway, here’s how it came out. I waaay miscalculated and made the exterior fabric too long. Of course, being that it was 2:30 a.m., it wasn’t until AFTER I was finished, that I realized I messed up. Instead of cutting the whole thing open, I just tucked the bottom portion up and in. Then I sewed across the bottom. Normally, there would be no seam there. It kind of worked out because now there’s extra padding on the “landing.” To personalize it, I had the kids write thank you messages using these Marvy Uchida fabric pens. I prefer to use the micron pens, because the tip is really fine, but I couldn’t find any around the house. If you look close, you can see that I did quilt the inside fabric to some cotton quilt batting.Now, every time she opens the case, she’ll be reminded of how thankful we are for her. The tutorial I used actually calls for two buttons, but I thought a hook and loop (Velcro) closure would be more practical. I used this awesome tutorial here!
Here are a few other great laptop or iPad tutorials:
This one by Oh Frannson.
Over at Me Sew Crazy, this one has a strap, but no closure.
I loooove this one at Crap I’ve Made. It has a zipper!
This one is cool with a flap, but might be kind of humbug.
Now go sew yourself one!

Religious Sources of Solidarity (EURESOURCE)
Project leader: Professor Peer Scheepers, Radboud University Nijmegen (Netherlands)
“Where, when, how and why is religious capital “unlocked” and “invested””. The EURESOURCE program investigated religion both in its formal or manifest and its informal or latent form. The aim was to clarify the extent to which solidarity in the various European countries varied over time and (still) depends on religious sources and whether or not trends can be observed in this respect.
The project team investigated the relation between formal and informal religiosity on the one hand and solidarity with intimate others, community and civil society, as well as national and global on the other hand. By longitudinal and cross-national comparison the relations between time and national context on religiosity and solidarity and the relation between those two was studied.

Most people usually think of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) operated by the military in order to spy on citizens and drop bombs on unsuspecting targets.
Lucien Miller, CEO of Innov8tive Designs, explains that the first drone, called the Kettering Bug, was flown almost a hundred years ago, in 1918. Early drones like this were essentially torpedoes with wings, unguided aircraft that dropped bombs with little target accuracy. It was these types of UAVs that have led people to fear the term drone and the destruction associated with them.
But today, drones and UAVs are rapidly gaining commercial popularity as UAV systems are becoming available at prices non-military budgets can afford. Miller says modern UAVs are becoming so small, they can be purchased for as little as $400. And now their uses extend far beyond covert military operations, such as search and rescue missions, endangered species protection, and infrastructure inspection, just to name a few.
Keith McLellen, CEO of ROV Systems joins the show to discuss the risks that come with the benefits of drones, the biggest concern being an increase in aerial surveillance and an invasion of privacy.
Watch “Drones and Other UAVs: Benefits and Risks – Exploring Ethics” to hear from Miller, McLellen, and retired Commander Bob Osborne, who worked for the LA County Sheriffs department for 38 years, about the life-saving and livelihood-threatening technology of modern drones.

Dog of the Day: Baobao the Handle With Care Pomeranian
I did some shipping last week, and, naturally, the way I choose my store is ‘the one with the awesome dog’. So I was happy to meet Baobao (Chinese for ‘treasured one’), the resident Pomeranian at the ‘Handle With Care Packaging Store‘ on University Avenue in Berkeley.
My first glimpse of Baobao. That is a piece of decorative packing tape on his butt… you’ll get a better look in a second.
Baobao immediately led me a merry chase, while the shop owner watched me with a sort of bemused fascination. Which I’m quite used to.
All the way around the shop… and then right behind the counter.
Baobao (which I persist in typing as ‘Bapbap’) really likes this perch.
Silly tongue shot. Almost as good as a dognose closeup.

Not for Curran and Curran, Premieres "biography"And has established itself as our most beloved current Spanish actress! And spend a great body.
One of the current great stars of the cine Spanish with essence and charisma. When professionalism and beauty bind can only result Maribel Verdu
You know that moment when you do not know if you like the look of a person or his charisma, or just the opposite?. Well, something about me and Maribel Verdu, one of my favorite actresses Spanish, I also very nice and simple, and of course with a great body, and therefore here.
A slim body, defined, but female. Although it is always fairly thin constitution boasts healthy physical, although it has admitted in interviews that do not care too much. Esto It shows that it is not utopian concept of thin and healthy woman!
It also has a very simple style that has almost become a hallmark of the Verdú, que usually dazzle without large excesses, being sexy without being crude and demonstrating that femininity is not in the excesses but naturalness.
This week opens the film End, Jorge Torregrossa, a movie that has all the good looks of the world, based on a novel by David Monteagudo. This is the novel that I liked this summer so I have high hopes for the film (well as data, although they are repeating ad nauseam, say that the Model Andrés Velencoso premieres as an actor in this film).. Además, Maribel Verdú has just “premiered” also a «biography», a book I have written about it.

Bikram yoga, 90 minutes
Due to travel, taper, injuries, I haven't been to bikram since Nov. 4 -- along two month hiatus. Of course, I have been stretching regularly since then. Flexibility -- very good. Heat tolerance -- much better than expected. Balance -- meh. I tried to be cautious of my ankle. It seemed pretty crowded for a 2:00 pm weekday class.
Bike, 30 minutes
I'd like to do a speed and lactate workout the next 2 days. Not sure which order I'm going to do them in.
In other news:
1. Fort Son swears by AMP, amplified muscle igniter pre-workout. Looks like a lot of caffeine to me.
2. Lil Fort and her classmates petitioned her school to use yoga balls instead of chairs at their desks. So now most of the class is bouncing/sitting on yoga balls with little feet. Kids ...
3. Mr. Fort bought me this shirt for xmas: http://store.nike.com/us/en_us/?l=sh...72/pgid-416386. I'm wondering if I can wear it to the gym without looking like a complete jerk.
4. Mr. Fort is considering competing in the duathlon nationals, which are in this area, in June.
5. I also got the Paleo Diet for Athletes for xmas, which I will be interested to read.
6. New article on diet in WSJ says that calorie counters are right. Weight gain from excess calories is the same regardless of the composition of the diet in terms of protein, fat and carbs. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123559955210376029.html

The government has recently revealed that there will be specific support for businesses impacted by Omicron:
From the GOV.UK website:
- Businesses in the hospitality and leisure sectors in England will be eligible for one-off grants of up to £6,000 per premises, plus more than £100 million discretionary funding will be made available for local authorities to support other businesses
- Government will also cover the cost of Statutory Sick Pay for Covid-related absences for small and medium-sized employers across the UK
- £30 million further funding will be made available through the Culture Recovery Fund, enabling more cultural organisations in England to apply for support during the winter
“These additional measures will reinforce the existing package of business support, including:
- business rates relief meaning that the majority of businesses in the hospitality and leisure sectors will see a 75% reduction in their business rates bill across the entire financial year and a new 50% capped business rates relief next financial year;
- a 12.5% reduced rate of VAT for hospitality and tourism to support the cash flow and viability of around 150,000 businesses and protect over 2.4 million jobs, until the end of March;
- the £1.5 billion Covid Additional Relief Fund for businesses that have not previously had business rates support;
- businesses will be protected from eviction if they are behind on rent on their premises, thanks to the moratorium in place until March 2022;
- access to finance for SMEs through the Recovery Loan Scheme to June; and
- Bounce Back Loan repayment flexibility, with borrowers having the option to take a 6 month repayment holiday, three 6 month interest only periods or extend their loan to 10 years, which almost halves the monthly payment.
- support for the aviation and travel sectors, including over £12 billion since the beginning of the pandemic, and the Airport and Ground Operations Support Scheme (AGOSS) until the end of March 2022.
- HMRC stand ready to support any business impacted by the coronavirus pandemic through its Time to Pay arrangement, and the Chancellor has asked them to offer businesses in the hospitality and leisure sectors in particular the option of a short delay, and payment in instalments, on a case by case basis, as part of this.
If you have been impacted by the Omicron variant, get in touch with the team at Funding Bay for access to the Recovery Loan Scheme here.

Retailers like hip supermarket Trader Joe’s and tech warehouse Best Buy have to represent a wide array of products and items on their shelves. As a result, they can’t be expected to stand by each product they offer, either figuratively or literally.
So to be true to their “best customer service” promise, these stores have done what few stores are willing to do: encourage honesty amongst the staff and induce them to speak freely about items and experiences in the store, confidently citing internet reviews and even sharing in-store feedback from customers.
The front line of any company holds expert knowledge, whether it be about the life cycle of a product, the advantages and disadvantages of their suite of services, or in comparing competing products on their shelves. The best customer service employees must be familiar with the product or service, but also must have a desire to know customer satisfaction, good or bad, after the transaction.
For the service industry, especially in Asia, this becomes slightly more tricky due to the “Harmony Play,” in which conflicts between employee and company interests are smoothed over without resolving key business issues like customer complaints and productivity.
A premier hotel in South Korea was beset by a declining reputation for solving customer issues, yet the General Manager at that time received only positive customer comment cards when delivered to him by his management staff. His solution was simple: he ordered the locks changed on all feedback boxes, and he held the only key.
Desiring to deliver the best customer service requires three values to be imbued by everyone in your company. First, have a higher purpose for your company. If you’re a retailer, encourage your employees to look after your company’s reputation as a trustworthy seller that deals in knowledge as well as products from the shelf.
Second, have an intelligence-gathering culture. If you are making and selling your own product, encourage openness within the company, and teach the importance of listening to clients and suppliers. Extracting information, even hints and clues, can be useful to improving productivity and managing relationships on all ends.
Third, remove the culture of blame from your company. That means putting a premium on solving problems, rather than performing a witch hunt to find out who is ultimately responsible. While you can’t throw accountability out the window, the urge to repair a faulty system and earn the reputation of “best customer service” should far outweigh the potential shame in being the reason for customer complaints.
Another important implication is that respect for customer feedback isn’t limited to staff or to employees on the sales floor. It must go all the way to the top for the front-liners to agree that listening to customer comments (often complaints) has a higher purpose. Encouraging intelligence-gathering, and then motivating employees to share their discoveries is essential.
Experiences with great customer service make customers more savvy, and they demand straight information from your front line, to whom they hand their hard-earned cash. Understanding this relationship should improve your and your employees’ drive to deliver better customer service that meets their growing expectations.

Things to Consider Before Buying the best digital camera for young photographer
Now, when you do research prior to buying digital camera for young photographer, there are certain things you need to consider. Because these considerations come into play by ensuring that you do not end up with the wrong choice.
Finding the best digital camera for young photographer is not rocket science and doesn’t require extensive research. Some important features which you should look out for are described below.
While there are numerous brands on the market, the truth is not all of them can give you the features you may need.
We’ve done the legwork of locating the most reputable brands around for you. Choosing from these, you’ll be much less likely than going to a store and grabbing something without considering the brand and everything behind it.
Durability is one of the primary features which are important for most products. They don’t often have long lifespans and require replacement every now then.
Before you buy any product from the store, make sure you know about the material well. Sometimes, many people buy the wrong product even after spending a lot of bucks.
Why do they do that? Probably because they don’t know which material ensures ultimate durability.
You should always focus on the quality of a digital camera for young photographer before getting it. Make sure it’s sturdy and built to last.
Before deciding on a specific product, be certain that it has all the necessary features you require.
If you’re unsure concerning something, don’t hesitate to ask the manufacturer. That way, you can make the right purchase that provides precise results.
The quality of the product is an important factor. If you happen to get one with low-quality material, you will have a tough time trying to maneuver them.
Whatever you choose to buy, the quality should be first-rate. You don’t want to waste money on something that looks or feels cheap when what you desire is elegance, coziness, and style.
Cost shouldn’t be an issue if you’re willing to invest in a high-quality product. An inexpensive product often has great features, so you get great value for your money.
However, expensive products don’t necessarily mean to be of exceptional quality. We prefer to say you select something that fulfills your needs.
Ease of Use
People feel more comfortable using products that come with a straightforward process of use.
So, you should always look for the ones that come with an easy to use process. You can find different designs, so you should choose the one that comes with more convenient features.
It is always recommended to have a product with a warranty, however, it’s not compulsory. However, if the brand provides warranties for a certain timeframe, then certainly, it’s a favorable deal.
The product size is one of the most important aspects to consider before purchasing a digital camera for young photographer. You need to know what kind of digital camera for young photographer you want to buy that fits your need.
It is essential to buy a product that addresses your needs based on your product dimensions. Spending money on something you will likely need is a waste of money. You should choose a item that will meet your needs based on its power.
Many products with countless designs are available in the market. Some designs are redundant, and others aren’t as efficient. Make sure you know what you do and whether the tools you choose will help you do your job better.
No matter how passionate you are about your occupation or work, your safety must always be a top priority. Since you’ll be using, make sure it has all the features that ensure the safety of the users. You do not want to experience any kind of accident.
Don’t just pick any brand, no matter how excellent, inexpensive, or available it is. Ensure that safety measures have been considered.
We advise not to buy products from brands that don’t specify the materials they use unless we’re sure the product is made with good quality materials. It’s important to be confident about a purchase before you make one, so when the materials used aren’t clearly specified, it makes us doubt the product’s quality.
It’s imperative to consider what material will work best for your requirements before you make an investment since you could find yourself wasting your money.
As you know by now, there are various types of digital camera for young photographer available in the market. You have to understand the pros and cons of individual types of products before picking the perfect one for your needs.
It is best to compare the advantages with each other before determining the perfect type.
Before you can utilize a product, often there are some fundamental guidelines that must be followed to get the most out of it. While some people may be able to just figure it out on their own, others may need an instruction manual.
Instruction manual is designed to provide you with information about how to use the product. The manual also goes over the safety precautions and explains how to recognize potential hazards. So you should buy the product that comes with an instruction manual.
When you are planning to buy any product, you will definitely think of its performance because nobody wants to waste his money buying a wrong product. So, check ins and outs of the digital camera for young photographer from user’s review, forums and expert people before you pick a specific model.
It can be frustrating when you buy something and then it turns out three days later that it is not what you need. With a little thought and effort, it is possible to avoid this by purchasing a versatile product that has multiple uses. You can use one product for many purposes.
You can also use the product in different ways, depending on the need at the time. In this way, you can also save money as you’ll just need to purchase the perfect one.
When you are planning to buy a product, you will definitely think of the accessories available in the market. Because anytime soon, it may cause damages due to unwanted accidents at any stage of its usages.
Some products also come in bundles, where they have a combo package of the necessary items that you may need with it.
Yup, color does matter! When you are planning to buy a Whole House Water Conditioners from dozens of models, you will definitely wish to get your desired color. As, color is the symbol of choice, aristocracy and represents your personal taste.
We have reviewed some of the best digital camera for young photographer considering this option of course.
A Whole House Water Conditioners is highly compact in order to have a high usage capacity. Compactness also ensures good portability and easy handling of a unit. Because if product doesn’t comes handy, you may face it tough to manage while using it.

After just three shows, we’ve figured out why Coach Taylor wants out of TMU — his quarterbacks throw like girls.
But that’s not the only reason we’re struggling to suspend our disbelief over Our Favorite Show. Every week, there seem to be more and more oddball plot questions. To wit:
Still, this week’s show had its moments. We loved that little knowing chuckle from Landry’s Dad when he saw Tyra bailing out of Landry’s window after her sleepover. And Landry’s Dad’s little exchange with her at Applebee’s was priceless; she’s figured out that maybe Landry is the best catch around Dillon, since The Atonal Swede apparently is taken.
Speaking of The Atonal Swede, we were rooting for Coach’s Wife from the Movie to smack Coach’s Daughter about the time she actually did. That girl needs a daddy around the house, not some guy who can’t carry either a tune or a comb. We wish Coach’s Wife from the Movie had smacked him, too.
We don’t know what Sleazy Car Dealer has up his sleeve, trying to get Coach Taylor back, but we’re suspecting it’s going to be another of these illogical plot twists. High school football coaches don’t get fired during the season very much, and guys quit college jobs to take those high school jobs even less.
Of course, if anyone deserves to get the ax, it’s Coach Hardass. Riding Riggins’ tail until he passed out wasn’t enough (even if he passed out from a hangover). Now he had to insult Quarterback Street during the game, too. “Team mascot” indeed. Unless he gets that miracle cure in Mexico, Quarterback Street is going to have a hard time getting into the Panther suit.
Saracen’s little thrown-down with Smash after the game was a little silly, too. It’s not like Smash doesn’t yap all the time anyway, and Saracen never has come across as a guy with a big enough ego to be bothered by that kind of stuff anyway.
Here’s hoping for a little more logic in the scripts.
The secret location halfway between Dillon and Austin, where Coach Taylor and Sleazy Car Dealer meet for a burger and a coup d’etat? The Mustang Travel Center, which is on U.S. 183 south of Austin.
We didn’t see any signs for “Texas State” this week at TMU, but Bobcat Stadium seems to have lost some of its upper decks from previous computerized enhancements.
When The Nurse works the kinks out of Saracen’s shoulder — from, we assume, that beat-down he put on Smash — she really is singing nonsense in Spanish. But heaven knows, she might just be the best thing to happen to poor ol’ Saracen this season.

A French cuisine classic, this beef braise is named after the wine traditionally used in this recipe, which is produced in the Burgundy region. This dish tastes even better if prepared a day in advance and it freezes well.
- 3 lb stew meat, cut into 2-inch chunks -
- 4 Tbsp olive oil -
- ½ bottle dry red wine -
- 1–2 cups beef stock or water -
- 1 Bouquet garni
- sprig of thyme, a few parsley stems and one bay leaf, all tied together with cotton twine -
- Salt and pepper -
- 1 Tbsp olive oil -
- 2 small onions, peeled and cut in large dice -
- ½ lb mushrooms, cleaned and halved -
1. Use a large, heavy, lidded casserole dish that can be used both on the stovetop and in the oven. Heat the 4 Tbsp of oil in the casserole on the stovetop, uncovered. Add the meat and brown it, placing enough pieces in the casserole to cover the bottom of the dish, without overcrowding. You may have to repeat this step for a second batch.
2. Lift the meat out of the casserole and pour off any fat. Add the wine and, with the heat turned high, scrape up any caramelized bits from the bottom of the pan. Let the wine reduce until syrupy.
3. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Return the meat to the casserole and add enough liquid to almost cover it. Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. If the sauce is too thin, you may want to let it simmer to reduce the liquid. Just be careful not to boil the meat for too long.
4. Add the bouquet garni and season with salt and pepper. Cover the casserole and place it in the oven for 2 hours.
5. Heat the 1 Tbsp of olive oil in a pan and sauté the onions and mushrooms until lightly browned. Add them to the meat and serve.

Fifteen days ago, I posted my answers to questions 1 thru 15 for the Know Thyself Writer’s Relief Challenge. You can visit those here.
Even if you didn’t participate in the challenge, I advise you give the questions a good go – if they’re ones you haven’t attempted to answer yet.
As writers, we need to not aspire only for publication and success. I believe we need to aspire to understand ourselves better. If we do that, understanding our character’s motivations and sticking to them throughout each manuscript will be just a fraction simpler because we won’t be confused with our selves. It doesn’t have to be something mind blowing or earth shaking; just that we solidify within ourselves an answer we weren’t 100% sure on yet. Or a question we had heard or wondered about but never really got around to giving anything more than a vague answer on.
I found something out that I hadn’t previously realized this go around.

While there is an ambitious plan to expand the scope of materials available to teachers at all levels, those available today are limited. Currently, one of the best sources of ideas and materials is the MITopencourseware Web site for the department of Science,Technology, and Society at MIT. Available here you will find Web-based and downloadable course materials for nearly 50 different STS graduate and undergraduate courses on the History of Technology and the History of Science.
An extremely useful source of lesson plans and related teaching materials is the National Endowment for the Humanities sponsored Website, Edsitement: Lesson Plans. A search for “history of technology” or a specific subject can yield a lesson that includes an introduction, guiding questions, learning objectives, preparation instructions, lesson activities, and a section on extending the lesson through the use of other materials and resources.
SIGCIS, the SHOT Special Interest Group on Computers, Information, and Society maintains an extensive syllabus repository with more than 40 examples of courses in the field, authored and compiled by SHOT members.
While many of us teach the history of technology as a discipline or as one aspect of some other historical field, we don’t always have the opportunity to share the ideas and techniques we use to engage students on the subject. Now you can make those ideas and techniques available to other educators by contributing a variety of materials–from syllabi to individual lessons plans–to the SHOT Website. We are seeking syllabi for survey courses and narrower topical courses in the history of technology, as well as materials on the subject as an integrated component of another historical field. We are also seeking materials that are useful in teaching K-12 students, museum visitors, and non-traditional audiences. You may email a link for your course Website or you may send PDFs of your course materials as an email attachment to the SHOT Secretary. Please, help accelerate the rate at which material is added to this site by participating.
Thank you for your generous assistance in building this valuable resource.

New lung cancer staging system (TNM 7) better predicts local/regional recurrence, study showsApril 1st, 2011 in Medicine & Health / Cancer
The new TNM 7 lung cancer staging system seems to be a better predictor of local or regional recurrence of lung cancer following surgery, according to a study published in the April issue of the Journal of Thoracic Oncology.
Being able to better define which patients might experience a cancer recurrence is important, especially given the controversies surrounding the use of adjuvant therapies, particularly postoperative radiation therapy (RT), for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
In 2009, the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) published its 7th edition of the tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) classification, which was developed in collaboration with the American Joint Committee on Cancer and the Union Internationale Contre le Cancer. The changes were based on an analysis of a large international database.
Researchers at Duke University School of Medicine in Durham, N.C., analyzed 709 patients who had undergone surgery for non-small cell lung cancer between 1995 and 2005. Stage was assigned based on both TNM 6 and TNM 7. The 5-year actuarial risk of local/regional recurrence (LRR) for all patients was 23%. None of the patients received any adjuvant chemotherapy or radiation therapy.
When patients were converted from TNM 6 to TNM 7, about 13% were placed in a higher stage and 8% in a lower stage. For most malignancies, increasing stage is generally associated with a higher risk of disease recurrence.
Five-year rates of local/regional recurrence for stages IA, IB, IIA, IIB and IIIA disease using TNM 6 were 16%, 26%, 43%, 35% and 40%, respectively. Using TNM 7, the corresponding rates were 16%, 23%, 37%, 39% and 30%.
"The TNM 7 system seems to be a better predictor for LRR after surgery for NSCLC than TNM 6," researchers wrote in the study. "This information may prove to be valuable when designing future studies of postoperative RT."

AdClarity’s mapping team goes into all main verticals and chooses the top sites considering the number of campaigns and traffic. In addition, AdClarity clients can upload any publisher that is not visible and add them to their searches.
How do you estimate impressions?
We consider the traffic numbers of a publisher (Monthly Visitors, Est. Page Views), and the number of creative placements, through which we calculate total estimated impressions per publishers. Those are divided amongst the creatives and campaigns we detect according to their SOV.
What does the SOV mean?
The Share of Voice is the statistical share of each entity amongst all detected entities of its type (or a pre-selected subset).
What are your unique data points?
In addition to all standard data points, AdClarity can detect Pre/Mid/Post-roll Videos, X/Y Position, and Transaction Method (Programmatic Vs. Direct).
Complete info can be found in our Coverage & Data Points document.
How often do you track publisher sites in each country?
Our standard SLA is divided to two publisher tiers – Top Tier and Longtail.
We visit each of them several times a day on a daily basis, the difference is the daily intensity and the refresh rate of the publisher’s URLs. We update the data every 24 hours.
Higher SLA can be discussed and priced accordingly update the data every 24-48 hours.
What countries does AdClarity cover?
AdClarity currently covers 21 country and are always working on adding more.
- US (53 DMAs as well as national level)
Which channels do you cover?
We cover Desktop Display, Mobile Display, Desktop Video, Mobile Video, Android In-App and iOS In-App.
Can I add new advertisers and mediators? If so, what is the time frame?
Clients can easily add any publisher they want in one click of a button. The average time to see results can be in just a few days. In addition, our technology and smart agents do allow for us to add advertisers and mediators based on the client’s needs and desires. Time estimates are dependent on each specific entity.
Do you offer extensive training for AdClarity?
Yes! We pride ourselves on our customer service and our commitment to our clients. We ensure that each department knows the best way to utilize AdClarity for their specific needs.
Are there industry-specific verticals in which AdClarity is more useful?
Yes! Automotive, Travel, Finance and Telco are our top verticals. In any manner, our publisher’s list can be edited to reflect our clients’ needs and uncover industry-specific advertisers.
What is the time commitment for the AdClarity service?
There are several packages that are available and can be tailor fit to the client’s needs. Packages can range from a monthly commitment to annual commitments.
Do you sell traffic?
AdClarity does not sell traffic as it is not a buying platform.

no edit summary
Rowena was initially antagonistic towards the Winchesters as she saw Crowley's relationship with them as diminishing his power. The Winchesters often called on her help with magic, and Rowena assisted when she saw a benefit for herself. Over time, she became an ally in their battles, albeit motivated by the benefit she saw for herself in helping them. Rowena had a particular bond with Sam -- they were both tortured by [[Lucifer]] and saw his true face, and share the struggle of living with that experience.
In 2018, Rowena began killing people and their [[reapers]] to get [[Death]]'s attention, as she blamed herself for Crowley's death and the path that her abandonment led him down in life. During this, the reaper [[Jessica]] reveals that in the book [[Death]] keeps on her, it is written that she will die by Sam Winchester's hand. While death refused to bring Crowley back, the experience ended with Rowena deciding that working for the greater good will be her redemption. She subsequently
aids the Winchesters in their efforts to return to [[Apocalypse World]] and on occasions when they need her expertise on a situation or case.
In 2019, after the release of the [[Hell Ghosts]] upon the world, Rowena chose to sacrifice herself to save the world by using her own body to cast all of the souls and demons back into Hell. At Rowena's request, Sam
reluctantly fatally stabbed Rowena whose self-sacrifice saved the world.

Trying to find our where the location of the motor mounts are on my ford e150 ecnolive van
Is there any diagram for the transmission i know that probably sounds weird but i want to know what it suppose to look like after i take the pan off!!! Any help or advise would be much appreciated!
will the coil work and be running bad at high speeds
I just bought this van and it ran fine for a Very short time. Now it keeps jerking jumping like it is missing spark or wants to stall, but it never stalls Ferels like I am going down a bumpy road in a way. It is very annoying and I am worried it will just get worse. Any easy fixes or is this something major? My engine light pops on and off, but never stays on for more than a minute or so. Also my airbag light flashes on and off. To top it off, the factory installed alarm will go off by itself with no "outside" help.
my van runs great in cool weather but sputters and boggs , runs very slow in hot weather,but when the nite temp cools we can bring it home . can't seem to fix the problem .we have changed the fuel filter and a sensor i'm not sure which one
how can I fix this
my ford van when driving down the road at high way speed,it will jerk in and out like its cutting out,it doesnt do it steady just every few minutes it will act up,then go back to running perfect,and when idling you can feel it kinda cutting out,feels like it quits getting gas for a second,or aint getting enough. fuel pump is working fine you can hear it.when you turn ignition on or if you crawl underneath. could it be fuel filter partially plugged,just bought van few days ago,runs and shifts great except for this issue,motor is the 5.8 thanks
after setting over night, or30 minutes
I recently bought a 1992 Ford E-150 Conversion van. I replaced the serpentine belt and the air pump and gave it a tune-up. The van was overheating so I also replaced the thermostat, hoses, and radiator. Right after replacing the radiator, the temperature gauge on the instrument panel stopped working. I can't tell if the van is running hot and I am not sure why it stopped working? Can anyone help with my next move?
i have replaced the engine with a 302 out of a Lincoln that’s all I know about the car it came out of. Swapped all stuff from engine to the other. NOW,@#$%^&^&$. when it warms up, and when you come to a stop or it is idling (after being warm) it changes from a regular idle to a rough running all most wants to die (but does not) shakes, needles on the dashboard wig out, If I step on the gas and rev it a little it quits for a while, but dose it again a few minute Later and on and on. Also, when driving it has a little trouble shifting from 2nd to drive. @$%#%^$%^%&, I HAVE REPLACED:
Spark plug wires
Airs throttle control motor???
Cleaned the injectors
New map sensor
Smoke test for vacuum for leaks (one found) fixed, no change.
Spayed carb cleaner all over to see if I could find any other leaks, (none found)
I Did the do it your self-test with a 4” wire to get the on board computer to kick out the problem codes by counting the number of blinks from the check engine light, i got a 114, 116 told me nothing!
Full tank of high octane gas just for kicks nothing.
The Ford dealership in my home town said they didn’t have the diagnostics computer/equipment to go far/deep enough into the engine to diagnose the problem, and referred me to another bigger ford store.
They also, forgot to put the EGR line back on, causing the check engine light to come on freak me out. They said wasn’t anything they did, and sent me down the road.
5**** F-I-V-E**** mechanics have looked at this van. Yet the dam van is still STILLLLL! not running right!!!! I do not know what to do. Similar problem have been discuss on line and in forums but no one will say what they did to fix the problem. It’s just the problem, or they want money for an answer that may or may not work, $48 flippen dollars for a maybe is too much after all I have spent. Though I’m still ahead $150, for the van $350, for engine and about, and $600ish for the list above. Though I’m coming to my limit. Has anyone experience this problem or silemer problem, what about the on board computer, should I replace It I can get an aftermarket for about $200. Where do I go from here? Thank you for reading. Jon

Marlon Wayans is an American actor, comedian, producer, writer and director particularly for usually collaborating with his Brother Shawn Wayans and for his roles in the Scary Movie series.
The son of Elvira Wayans, a homemaker and social worker, and supermarket manager Howell Wayans, Marlon Wayans was born on July 23, 1971 in New York City. The youngest of the ten siblings, he grew up in the housing projects in the big city. He studied at Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts and attended Howard University.
In 1995, Marlon Wayans co-starred with his brother Shawn in the WB sitcom The Wayans Bros. The show lasted until 1999. Although he is primarily known as a comedian, Wayans showed his versatility as an actor when he co-starred in the Academy Award-nominated film Requiem for a Dream as Tyrone C. Love. The film was directed by Darren Aronofsky and co-starred Ellen Burstyn, Jared Leto, and Jennifer Connelly.
As a producer, Wayans is the man behind the Scary Movie series, in which he also played Shory Meeks, a parody of the characters Randy Meeks from the Scream trilogy and Max in I Know What You Did Last Summer. He is also the producer of the 2005 comedy film Roll Bounce which starred rapper Bow Wow, Chi McBride, Kellita Smith and Jurnee Smollett. In 2000, Wayans played one of the members of the thief duo “Snails” in the live-action film Dungeons & Dragons. Unfortunately, his acting on the film was sharply criticized by movie critics along with those of his co-stars Jeremy Irons and Thora Birch.
Wayans is also the producer of the Nickelodeon cartoon Thugaboo, which he described as a combination of Charlie Brown and Fat Albert. Some of his other film credits include comedies like White Chicks, Little Man and Norbit. He has also been slated to appear as Ripcord in the 2009 G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra movie.
Wayans has a son named Shawn Howell and a daughter named Arnai Zackary with his wife Angelica Zackary. He was also good friends with the late rapper and his Above the Rim co-star Tupac Shakur.

Bitcoin is the first successful internet money based on peer-to-peer technology; whereby no central bank or authority is involved in the transaction and production of the Bitcoin currency. It was created by an anonymous individual/group under the name, Satoshi Nakamoto. The source code is available publicly as an open source project, anybody can look at it and be part of the developmental process. Bitcoin is changing the way we see money as we speak. The idea was to produce a means of exchange, independent of any central authority, that could be transferred electronically in a secure, verifiable and immutable way. It is a decentralized peer-to-peer internet currency making mobile payment easy, very low transaction fees, protects your identity, and it works anywhere all the time with no central authority and banks. Bitcoin is design to have only 21 million BTC ever created, thus making it a deflationary currency. Bitcoin uses the SHA-256 hashing algorithm with an average transaction confirmation time of 10 minutes. Miners today are mining Bitcoin using ASIC chip dedicated to only mining Bitcoin, and the hash rate has shot up to peta hashes. Being the first successful online cryptography currency, Bitcoin has inspired other alternative currencies such as Litecoin, Peercoin, Primecoin, and so on. The cryptocurrency then took off with the innovation of the turing-complete smart contract by Ethereum which led to the development of other amazing projects such as EOS, Tron, and even crypto-collectibles such as CryptoKitties.
The Cosmos network consists of many independent, parallel blockchains, called zones, each powered by classical Byzantine fault-tolerant (BFT) consensus protocols like Tendermint (already used by platforms like ErisDB). Some zones act as hubs with respect to other zones, allowing many zones to interoperate through a shared hub. The architecture is a more general application of the Bitcoin sidechains concept, using classic BFT and Proof-of-Stake algorithms, instead of Proof-of-Work.Cosmos can interoperate with multiple other applications and cryptocurrencies, something other blockchains can’t do well. By creating a new zone, you can plug any blockchain system into the Cosmos hub and pass tokens back and forth between those zones, without the need for an intermediary. While the Cosmos Hub is a multi-asset distributed ledger, there is a special native token called the atom. Atoms have three use cases: as a spam-prevention mechanism, as staking tokens, and as a voting mechanism in governance. As a spam prevention mechanism, Atoms are used to pay fees. The fee may be proportional to the amount of computation required by the transaction, similar to Ethereum’s concept of “gas”. Fee distribution is done in-protocol and a protocol specification is described here. As staking tokens, Atoms can be “bonded” in order to earn block rewards. The economic security of the Cosmos Hub is a function of the amount of Atoms staked. The more Atoms that are collateralized, the more “skin” there is at stake and the higher the cost of attacking the network. Thus, the more Atoms there are bonded, the greater the economic security of the network. Atom holders may govern the Cosmos Hub by voting on proposals with their staked Atoms.

The criteria traditionally used to classify organizations as manufacturing and service offer little utility to managers in planning and controlling operations. The identification of similarities that allow implementation of proven management techniques is critically important regardless of organizational classification. This paper briefly reviews criteria for classifying manufacturing and service organizations and suggests an extension of the dependent demand concept to planning and control for service organizations. Applications of this approach to service organizations are provided.

In 1963, Marvel really got hopping. For September of that year, they turned out not one, but two new superhero teams. The first, The Avengers, was made up of the heroes they had launched to that point, including Iron Man, Thor, Ant-Man, and the Hulk. The second group, therefore, had to be newly created. Rather than give them separate origins, Stan and Jack came up with a new concept for superheroes: They had all been born that way. They were mutants, members of "homo superior", as compared to homo sapiens.
Here's the cover:
The Flyboy is The Angel, originally Warren Worthington III. Although this issue does not reveal much more about him than that he can fly and wears a harness while in street clothes that hides his wings, the name is clearly intended to give us an image of a wealthy young preppie.
The big-footed gentleman on the trapeze is The Beast, real name Hank McCoy. He's something of a monkey-boy, capable of bouncing around at will and using his feet almost like hands. He's also a sesquipedalian, somebody who never uses a simple word when a six-syllable term will suffice.
The laser guy is Cyclops, introduced in this issue as "Slim" Summers although later stories use his given name of Scott. Although it is not apparent in the first issue, Summers is the leader of the team when away from their home base.
The gal in the background looking like she's riding a surfboard is Jean Grey, alias Marvel Girl. Her power is here described as "teleportation" although in fact it is more telekenesis as later stories will acknowledge. Jean is the source of some of the friction in the group, as everybody (except one) is attracted to her.
The lone holdout from the Jean Grey admiration society (at least in this first issue) is Iceman, shown throwing snowballs above. Bobby Drake is the youngest of the X-Men at only 16.
The villain is Magneto, certainly one of the most durable villains of the Marvel Silver Age. He too is a mutant, but an evil mutant determined to take over the Earth as its ruler.
Not shown is the regular leader of the X-Men, Professor Xavier. Although confined to a wheelchair, he possesses a superior mind, capable of telepathy at great distances.
The X-Men were destined to become one of the great teams in comic book history, although that may not have been obvious at first. In fact, they did not survive to the end of the Silver Age, being cancelled after issue #66, March 1970. But they would return in the mid-70s with different members and become extremely popular.

Google Earth and DoD
Federal Computer Week explains how DoD and others (some named, some not) use Google Earth Enterprise (a collection of Google goodies) to fuse geospatial data. Base cost: $100,000. The good news? Client software is free.
I have a question on this:
Interviewed in the Google booth, which resembles the bridge of the Starship Enterprise, Painter [director of Google Earth Federal] said that although the public Google Earth uses commercial satellite and geospatial imagery, Google Earth Fusion allows federal agencies to manipulate and integrate their own geospatial imagery with the company’s software tools.
Imagery or software? Isn’t Google a member of OGC? Is it moving forward on implementing those standards such that it can do both with ease? Is that not the point of OGC? Is DoD pushing Google to implement such standards? See for example: NGA Announces Requirement for OGC and Complementary Standards

T-Minus 12 days to Stockton Con.
Over the weekend I really got to working on the gun, and I feel I made quite a bit of progress.
First order of business was prepping the Puff Paint bottles to become alien-goo-stuff canisters. I got myself a hacksaw and cut off the nose thing on the caps then sanded the top of the caps down flat
I had to empty out the paint into a bag. Still wondering what I should do with my bag of mixed Puff Paint.
I found that my alien glove fingers couldn't fit into the trigger guard, but that made a bigger hole in the gun, so I had to cover it.
I took some thin plastic and used an exacto-knife to cut out the right shapes to cover up the holes. I had to cut them in half so that I could still open the gun to mess with the insides.
Next, I used my grandfather's drill-press to make some holes in the exhaust-like section of the gun, and then 4 holes where I plan to put the LEDs.
I put quite a bit of work into sanding the gun before I remembered that you can't see the details too well on the gun after it's painted. The only thing you can really see is the NERF logo. I might have to cover that up or sand it down more. Parts of the gun do look much nicer now though.
My original plan was to superglue the canisters to the gun, but my dad suggested I screw them into the gun instead. That way they're more secure, and can even be taken out and changed, in the case that one breaks. I drilled some holes and made some thread cuts, then used a screw and washer to hold the cap onto the gun.
After all the caps were installed, I just screwed in the bottles. The gun is looking a lot more District 9-esque now, though it looks a bit silly with all the different colors.
I made another trip to ReCreate and found a much better canister. I used a PVC adapter (partially covered by a hose clamp)to screw it onto an ink bottle I found then screwed the ink bottle onto the magazine.
By that time, the weekend was over. I'll be doing more work over the next couple days and hopefully I can figure out the Arduino programming.

Brand new restoration with new English subtitles
Red Desert (Blu-ray+DVD) BFI
Antonioni’s mid-career masterpiece – his first film in colour – tells the story of Giuliana (Monica Vitti), a young woman suffering a mental and emotional crisis and embarking tentatively on an affair. Vitti – Antonioni’s lover and muse, and the star of his earlier films L’avventura, L’eclisse and La notte – gives a magnificent, startling performance. She is ably accompanied by Carlo Chionetti as her unemotional husband Ugo, and Richard Harris as Corrado, Ugo’s restless associate who finds himself drawn to her.
Red Desert is a stunning film from the great Italian auteur, a deserving winner of the Golden Lion at the 1965 Venice Film Festival and a high point in modern cinema.
This is a new restoration with new improved English subtitle translation.

Department of Agronomy
Johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense) is a troublesome perennial grass weed that reduces yields in corn, grain sorghum, soybean, cotton and leguminous forages. Originally introduced into the United States as a forage crop, it is now an agricultural pest in most states south of the 42nd parallel. Dense johnsongrass infestations severely limited corn production until the relatively recent introduction of Accent and Beacon herbicides. Several states have legislation requiring eradication or control programs. Johnsongrass is listed as a noxious weed by the Missouri Department of Agriculture, which requires that landowners take steps toward controlling and eradicating the weed on all property owned or under their control.
Growers now have numerous tools to manage this weed. As with most other weeds, the key is to implement multiple control strategies when johnsongrass is first observed and not wait until it is firmly established.
Mature johnsongrass stands 6 to 8 feet tall.
Johnsongrass seed head.
Johnsongrass has a large, jagged-edged, membranous ligule.
Rhizomes of johnsongrass are covered with orange scales.
Johnsongrass is well adapted to compete with crop plants and to spread to new areas. An upright perennial, it often grows 6 to 8 feet tall (Figure 1). It has wide leaves with thickened whitish midribs; its panicles (seed heads) are open (Figure 2), and the many branches support thousands of spikelets from which seeds are readily shattered. A key identifying characteristic of the vegetative stage is its relatively large, jagged-edged, membranous ligule (Figure 3). Shattercane can easily be confused with johnsongrass. The most obvious difference is that since shattercane is an annual grass, it does not produce rhizomes. The leaf blade of shattercane, as much as 3 inches wide, is usually much wider than the 0.8-inch-wide leaf blade of johnsongrass. In addition to a typical fibrous root system, johnsongrass produces thick cream-colored rhizomes, covered with orange scales (Figure 4).
During 1992 various biotypes of johnsongrass in Mississippi were reported to exhibit resistance to Fusilade DX applied at labeled rates. Resistance appeared in fields that had been treated with Fusilade and Poast Plus in at least eight of the previous 10 years. Since that time, at least five counties in Mississippi have johnsongrass populations confirmed resistant to Fusilade, and there are recent reports of resistant johnsongrass in Kentucky. Commonly, resistant populations of johnsongrass are not sensitive to Fusilade DX or Assure II, no matter what rate is applied. Elevated tolerance to Poast/Poast Plus has also been noted, but rates three- to fivefold higher than recommended normally are effective. Field use rates of Select, another selective grass herbicide, are effective in controlling resistant johnsongrass.
Its ability to produce seed and rhizomes and spread to uninfested areas contributes to making johnsongrass a menacing weed. Rhizomes are extensive and are produced in the top 10 inches of soil but have been found at depths of 5 feet. Johnsongrass readily reproduces from rhizomes and seed; seedling plants can initiate rhizomes as few as 19 days following emergence.
A single plant may produce more than 80,000 seeds in a single growing season, and 275 feet of rhizomes. Seeds shatter easily and fall to the ground beneath plants that produce them. Instead of germinating uniformly, seeds can remain dormant and produce plants over several years. Johnsongrass seed can remain viable in the soil for more than 10 years.
Johnsongrass generally grows in fertile bottomlands along creek and river banks and in upland fields. Irrigation ditch banks are also overgrown with johnsongrass, and seed is carried by the water. In a new location, johnsongrass spreads rapidly and soon becomes a serious problem. Tillage equipment can spread the rhizomes, and birds spread the seed.
Agricultural seed, hay and various livestock feeds sometimes become contaminated with johnsongrass seed. In the past, watermelons shipped from the South were often bedded in johnsongrass hay, which was swept out at various dropoff points and contributed to its spread.
Interfertility with other sorghum species
Plant breeders, seed dealers and growers often observe off-type plants or "rogues" of hybrid grain sorghum. Common rogues are the tall outcrosses to sudangrass, johnsongrass or other sorghum types. Sorghum outcrosses with johnsongrass as the male parent often have rhizomes resembling those of johnsongrass. Johnsongrass-grain sorghum hybrids can become a significant weed threat.
Preventing johnsongrass from becoming established in new areas is the best available control method, because the weed spreads in so many ways. Because johnsongrass is a perennial weed, single cultural control measures or herbicide applications rarely provide adequate control.
Johnsongrass control programs should
- Prevent spread of rhizomes from infested to uninfested areas.
- Kill or weaken established plants and their underground rhizome system.
- Control seedlings originating from shattered seed.
- Prevent production of seed and its spread to new areas.
- Use fall tillage to bring rhizomes to soil surface, where they may be killed by winter conditions.
These objectives are closely related and are equally important to the success or failure of a control program. In limited infestations, it is possible and desirable to use herbicides to kill the weed and prevent seed production. The critical time to kill johnsongrass is while the weed is becoming established and before it has spread over the entire field. For sites with established infestations, a fall application of Roundup or Touchdown will kill emerged tissue and often developing rhizomes.
Growing early-maturing crops, plowing immediately after harvest, and tilling as needed are common methods to break up rhizomes and weaken johnsongrass stands in cultivated areas. Johnsongrass responds to tillage like most tough perennial weeds. Intensive tillage will suppress rhizome johnsongrass. Moderate tillage will break and spread rhizomes and allow johnsongrass to thrive. Johnsongrass will spread relatively slowly in true no-till regimes; however, given enough time, infestations may still become severe. Severe infestations often result in pastures converted to row crops. Uncontrolled johnsongrass in fence rows and ditch banks is a common source of johnsongrass seed as well as vegetative encroachment into fields. Spot sprays on fences and ditch banks can eliminate these sources of seeds and rhizomes.
Alfalfa competes well with johnsongrass for a limited time but will eventually weaken. Repeated mowing of an alfalfa-johnsongrass mixture will prevent johnsongrass from producing seed and will inhibit rhizome development. Intensive grazing and mowing can be used to reduce a stand of johnsongrass. If grazed or mowed closely for at least two years, the plants become weak and stunted and the rhizomes become concentrated near the soil surface. Plowing in late fall exposes the rhizomes to low winter temperatures and reduces the stand considerably. For infested areas that cannot be tilled or sprayed, intensive grazing or mowing is probably the best control.
Johnsongrass control with herbicides
To reduce johnsongrass infestations with herbicides, it will be necessary to use an integrated approach consisting of soil-applied herbicides, postemergence herbicides, crop rotation and tillage. Weedy plants such as johnsongrass adapt quickly to a cultural system that does not change from year to year. An example of this type of system is continuous soybean production such as occurs in many river and creek bottoms. Crop rotation is important to disrupt the physical environment that johnsongrass and many other weeds live in and will help to minimize seed and rhizome production. Herbicide rotation is important to minimize selection pressure for herbicide-resistant biotypes.
The programs mentioned below are designed to control other weeds in addition to johnsongrass. However, these programs are designed for fields where johnsongrass is not adequately controlled by current methods. For control methods to be effective, growers must be diligent and apply control techniques as often as necessary.
In no-till corn production, any herbicide that has postemergence grass activity will provide some control of seedling johnsongrass. In conventional-till corn production, Eradicane or another product containing EPTC (Eradicane) can be applied as a preplant incorporated treatment. Rhizomes should be cut up into small pieces using several diskings before treatment. Incorporate Eradicane immediately after application to minimize volatility losses. However, the burndown or preplant incorporated applications will not provide adequate season-long control and additional control measures will be needed.
Postemergence herbicides for johnsongrass control in corn include Accent, Beacon, Poast HC and Roundup Ultra. The initial application of Accent or Beacon should be applied to 4- to 10-inch-tall seedling johnsongrass and 8- to 14-inch-tall rhizome johnsongrass. If regrowth occurs, a second application can be made when johnsongrass regrowth is 8 to 14 inches tall. Accent can be applied as a broadcast treatment on corn until it is 24 inches tall. Accent applications can be made to 24- to 36-inch corn by using drop nozzles. Beacon can be applied as a broadcast spray to corn that is between 4 and 20 inches tall. Do not apply Accent or Beacon to corn that has been treated with Counter insecticide. Consult the label for restrictions with other organophosphate insecticides and postemergence herbicides.
In SR (sethoxydim-resistant or Poast-tolerant) corn, Poast Plus or Poast HC should be applied initially to 10- to 25-inch johnsongrass. If regrowth occurs, a sequential treatment can be applied to 12-inch johnsongrass regrowth. There are no insecticide restrictions and Poast HC can be applied until corn begins to shed pollen.
When Roundup-Ready corn has received full federal approval, Roundup Ultra can be applied to johnsongrass up to 24 inches tall. If regrowth occurs, a sequential treatment can be applied to 12-inch johnsongrass regrowth. Consult the label for stage of growth and insecticide restrictions.
Soybean and cotton
In no-till soybean or cotton production, as in corn production, any herbicide that has postemergence grass activity will provide some control of seedling johnsongrass. In conventional-till soybean or cotton production, Treflan and Prowl can be applied preplant incorporated and will provide some control of seedling johnsongrass. When incorporating these herbicides, set the implement to run 4 inches deep and make two passes over the treated area to ensure adequate mixing of the herbicide with the soil. However, as in corn production, the burndown or preplant incorporated applications will not provide adequate season-long control, and additional control measures will be needed.
Postemergence herbicides for johnsongrass control in soybean and cotton include Assure II, Bugle, Fusilade DX, Fusion, Poast Plus/Rezult G/Conclude G, and Select in regular, non-herbicide-tolerant soybean or cotton. All of these herbicides provide acceptable control, although Assure II, Fusilade and Select are the preferred herbicides for johnsongrass. Roundup Ultra can be used in Roundup-Ready soybean and cotton. In dense infestations, single applications of any of these herbicides will provide incomplete control. Better control is obtained with split applications. It is recommended that the lower herbicide rates be used on seedling johnsongrass that is less than 10 inches tall. The higher rates are recommended for use on rhizome johnsongrass taller than 10 inches. The recommended approach is to target johnsongrass that is 10 to 18 inches tall. Smaller johnsongrass has little leaf area and consequently absorbs limited amounts of herbicide for complete rhizome control. Regrowth after the first postemergence application indicates that there is a significant amount of rhizome johnsongrass present in the field, and a second postemergence application will be needed. To control regrowth, apply the higher rate of a postemergence herbicide to regrowth that is 6 to 12 inches tall. For regrowth applications, it is a good idea to use a different herbicide than that used for the initial application to avoid selection of herbicide-resistant johnsongrass biotypes.
Adjuvants and cultivation in corn, soybean and cotton
Consult the manufacturer's label for the appropriate adjuvant for postemergence herbicides. Allow seven days after postemergence herbicide applications before any cultivation is practiced. Cultivation too soon after herbicide applications will reduce johnsongrass control as stems and rhizomes are broken before the herbicide can be translocated. Cultivation seven to 10 days after herbicide applications, after the herbicide has translocated, will further weaken the herbicide-injured rhizomes and increase johnsongrass control.
Alfalfa, birdsfoot trefoil, clovers
A preplant incorporated treatment of Balan can be used for control of seedling johnsongrass and other annual grasses in alfalfa. Rhizome johnsongrass will not be adequately controlled with Balan alone. Balan must be incorporated within four hours after application. Variable weed control may result if incorporation is delayed more than eight hours.
Postemergence herbicides include Poast/Poast Plus and Select. These herbicides can be used on new or established seedings and can also be applied when alfalfa is either dormant or nondormant. Apply Poast, Poast Plus or Select to 10- to 25-inch-tall johnsongrass. If regrowth occurs, sequential applications can be made with similar rates to 12-inch johnsongrass regrowth. Consult the label for the appropriate adjuvant for the postemergence herbicides.
Because johnsongrass is closely related to other plants in the sorghum family, including grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), current herbicides that control johnsongrass also control or kill grain sorghum. The best management practice for johnsongrass control in grain sorghum will be to grow an alternative crop that has more available registered herbicides.
Selective herbicide applications for johnsongrass control
Selective application equipment can provide economical johnsongrass control in any of the above-listed crops. Typical johnsongrass infestations are distributed unevenly across the field. Chemical costs can be reduced by using a ropewick applicator or by spot spraying the infested areas. In a ropewick applicator, mix 1 part Roundup or Touchdown with 2 parts water. Run the ropewick applicator in two directions across the field so the johnsongrass is wiped or wicked on both sides. The ropewick should be safely run above the crop canopy to avoid contact with crop foliage. Some dripping and crop injury is inevitable; therefore, it is best to use a commercially available ropewick bar designed to minimize dripping.
Spot spraying can also be an economical johnsongrass management tool. In soybean and cotton, the selective grass herbicides mentioned earlier may be mixed with water in a 1 to 2 percent solution and spot sprayed with hand wand, ATV-mounted sprayers, or tractor-mounted sprayers. Roundup or Touchdown spot sprays can also be used but will cause injury or death to crops that are not tolerant of glyphosate herbicides (Roundup or Touchdown).
Preharvest johnsongrass control
Johnsongrass control before harvest will help to reduce rhizome and seed production for subsequent rotational crops. Roundup is labeled for application to mature corn, cotton, grain sorghum, soybean, and wheat. Double-crop soybean may particularly benefit if johnsongrass is sprayed in the preceding wheat crop. Roundup may be applied to standing soybean that has lost all green color in the pods as long as the crop is not being grown for seed. Roundup may be applied to corn at 35 percent grain moisture or less, to cotton when 60 percent of the bolls are open, to grain sorghum at 30 percent moisture or less, and to wheat after the hard-dough stage.
Soybean and wheat should not be harvested for seven to 10 days after application to allow herbicide translocation. These applications may be of limited utility in soybean and cotton, as the application time is typically close to frost. Unless herbicide applications are made at least seven to 10 days before frost, insufficient translocation will occur and the applications will not be effective.

As part of The Song Continues, the venerable Dalton Baldwin offered a master class of inestimable value. There is no one alive today that we know of who has as much to offer in the art of French chanson. He was able to divide his attention equally among four superb singers and four equally talented collaborative pianists. No one failed to profit by his suggestions and gentle guidance. His unassuming and humble manner made the medicine go down very easily.
Participating singers were sopranos Pureum Jo, Emily Siar and Meghan Lindsay, mezzo-soprano Samantha Malk and tenor Brenton Ryan. Participating collaborative pianists were Ronny Michael Greenberg, Dylan Perez , Saule Tlenchiyeva and Peter Walsh.
It's the little refinements that change a very good performance into a great one. Even inexperienced members of the audience could not fail to hear the difference made by Mr. Baldwin's tutelage. What a privilege to learn so much by observation!
