Have you ever seen a picture of an ostrich with its head buried in the sand? This is one of the funniest scenes in nature, but an unfunny, accurate metaphor to describe individuals who have a crisis care mentality about their health. This means that they only take care of themselves when they are sick, diagnosed with a disease or are in excruciating pain.
If you want to live an active, healthy long life, this ostrich mentality won’t get you there. Here are some signs that you or a loved one may be in a crisis with your head in the sand:
1. You take over the counter drugs on a monthly basis
2. You have taken prescription drugs consistently for more than
3. You have altered your life due to a health concern
4. You constantly try to pop your neck and back or are fidgety
5. You cannot exercise without pain
6. You take medication to offset the side effects of other
7. You experience irregular sleep patterns
8. You are susceptible to colds and the flu
9. You often say things like, “I need to go to the doctor”or
“I need to take a pill”
10. You have difficulty standing or sitting up straight
Many seniors and centenarians are suffering the consequences of their “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it”, ostrich-like attitudes. We are getting the advance notice that our parents and grandparents never received so we can think differently about health and pull our heads out of the sand.
Embrace your Innate Potential.
Do you have a parent or grandparent that lived to be 70, 80, 90 or 100 years old? Whether you like it or not, this is your minimum Innate, genetic potential. Your children and grandchildren share your genes as well, so become excited about your longevity, and theirs, and make the lifestyle changes now to ensure your health and vitality for a lifetime.
Your mind and body will break down when there is interference in your nervous system. Just like a car accident will interfere with the flow of traffic, interference in your nervous system will cause dis-ease in your body which can lead to pain, sickness and even chronic disease. Sometimes you will have symptoms and sometimes you won’t. Don’t wait for the symptoms, the crisis, to remove this interference. That’s what an ostrich would do. Stay healthy by keeping this interference out of your life, your spine and your nervous system, regardless of how you feel.
It’s time for an Intervention.
If you have an ostrich in your family, you can save their life and make a difference by intervening. Express your concern. Show them you care. Get help from others if you need it but don’t let them become a statistic and “just another person”who was killed or injured severely because they were in denial about the dangers to their health.
We are excited to be a part of your health care team. If you have an ostrich in your life, please send them to our office for an appointment. We would be honored to help them get their head out of the sand.

We Develop Million Dollar+ Advisors
9%. That’s about the percentage of financial advisors who are hired and ultimately generate at least $1M in yearly revenue.
For elite advisors earning a net income of $1M or more, the percentage shrinks even lower – to around 2%.
These numbers beg the question: Why do some advisors succeed while the majority are challenged to hit these industry bench marks?
We know why. We’re Altius Learning and we’ve been helping financial advisors build Million Dollar+ Practices for over a decade.
What Makes Us Different?
Our Focus is Narrow
Wealth Management Professionals Only
Altius Learning works exclusively with wealth management professionals. Unlike other firms, we do not engage in executive or life coaching. Our focus is precise-practice management with an emphasis on client acquisition for advisors and their leadership teams. We show wealth management professionals how to turn their potential into peak performance.
Our Approach is Unique
Our individual and group coaching approach is different because it is inquiry-based. This means our coaches talk less, listen more and guide learning programs that are conducted as active, engaging discussions rather than passive lectures. We focus on the primary drivers of advisor success: new business acquisition, practice management disciplines, and how to effectively work on high performance teams.
Our Perspective is Powerful
In any profession, knowledge matters. Unfortunately, knowledge alone doesn’t guarantee success. The reason why is because clients don’t pay advisors for what they know. They pay them for what they do. At Altius Learning, we show advisors how to put their knowledge into action the same way top advisors do – by being personally accountable for their own success.
Accountability is a key component of our coaching. We help you set clear, attainable goals and hold you accountable to completing the tasks and meeting the deliverable timeliness that empower your success. Our coaches provide you with all the tools, resources, and support you will need to consistently generate higher levels of revenues. You’ll learn the same accountability skills utilized by elite advisors so that you can bring your best work to every client, every time.
Our Methods Are Proven
From our more than 30+ years of research and practical experience, we have created prescriptive tools, step-by-step instructions, scripts, checklists, schedules, and metrics all designed for you to implement immediately. Through insight, continuous reinforcement and accountability, these programs have been documented to achieve measurable, sustainable results.
Our training and coaching programs shorten the learning curve because they bridge the knowing-doing gap. We show you how to align knowledge with action in ways that will create exceptional value to your clients and prospects.

What customers are saying
With Dragon Medical Direct, the time our trained and optimized providers spend in the note authoring pages is one‑sixth the Cerner average.
We saw our physicians increase their documentation efficiency with speech recognition. It made sense to offer our nurses the solution as well, with the idea it would empower them to tackle pressing documentation responsibilities.
Dr. Paul Clark
Chief Medical Information Office
We were looking for a scalable, enterprise‑wide clinical documentation solution. Nuance not only met that criteria but also could provide a strong technology foundation to improve provider efficiency and enable timely documentation in the patient record.
Chief Information Security Officer
We took a look at the bigger picture of voice recognition technologies and discovered how evidence‑based guidelines and new therapies are exploding in this space, and we found that only Nuance is on the leading edge of this trend toward higher‑order voice recognition solutions.
Executive Director of Information Management
We're excited about Dragon Medical Direct and being able to tie that into our Imprivata Cortext application for secure texting. We're really hoping to be able to give back a little bit of time to our providers who are super busy with everything that they have to do, so that they can care for their patients.
Vice President, Health Information Management Summit Health
In terms of actually making a difference, so much of that has to happen from provider to provider in care transitions and voice is a big part of that. The notes are more complete, there’s more information there, they actually say something instead of just this cookie‑cutter template where every note can look the same..
Yeaman and Associates
Physicians are more mobile than ever, both inside and outside the hospital. There is also an increased need for patient stories to become immediately available. Integrating Nuance Dragon Medical Direct with our Cerner physician documentation tool has enabled us to meet both of these needs.
Ehab Hanna, MD, FHM
Chief Medical Information Officer
Universal Health Services (UHS), Inc
This workflow has been essential for us. Now, when the next physician arrives to see the patient, even a few minutes later, the first physician’s notes are already available in the chart for review.
Vice President and Chief Information Officer
Make your dictations effortless
A range of dictation and transcription accessories to complement your dictation or voice solutions that can enhance the efficiency and workflow within a busy office.

Here on TAP, we’ve been using our recent blog posts to focus on the legislation introduced by members of the Arkansas congressional delegation. Today we are ending this series by examining Rep.
Bruce Westerman’s legislation.
Here are some of the 9 bills he has sponsored:
- HR 6355 – to give the federal government more leeway to deal with the numerous petitions filed to list species under the Endangered Species Act. This bill will allow the Secretary of the Interior to declare a “petition backlog” that will prevent the government from facing lawsuits because it missed a statutory deadline to review the petitions.
- HR 6011 – to allow federal courts to reduce the prison term for someone who was convicted of a crime committed when that person was 18. The prisoner must have served at least 20 years in prison and not pose a danger to the public to qualify for a sentence reduction.
- HR 5170 – to mandate that 25% of the money from the Land and Water Conservation fund goes to states. Forty percent of the money would be used by the federal government, with 75% of that portion being used to address deferred maintenance and other services.
- HR 2936 – to make it easier for the federal government to manage national forests to avoid diseases or fire.
- House Joint Resolution 82 – to repeal a federal rule that imposes new requirements on the measurements of oil and natural gas leases occurring on Indian and federal lands.
The bills that Rep. Westerman has introduced indicate his strong focus on land use and environmental issues. Since he is a forester, this makes sense. These bills would make reforms to the current federal practices in ways that make a lot of sense to me. HR 6355, for instance, is meant to prevent organizations or individuals from filing frivolous endangered species act petitions that lead to lawsuits. I’ve written about the positive aspects of HR 5170 and HR 2936 (in another legislative form) on TAP previously. Sensible federal land management is often prevented by absurd environmental regulations, and Rep. Westerman’s legislation addresses some of the more egregious examples of this.
I hope this series has given TAP readers some insight into what the six men who represent Arkansas in Congress are doing. While members of Congress vote on a variety of measures encompassing a wide range of subjects, their real interests can be seen by the bills they introduce. We’ll continue to highlight their bills so you’ll be better informed as to how you’re being represented in Washington, D.C.

Our Development Manager, Shona Blakeley is one of three nominees for the Institute of Fundraising’s Fundraiser of the Year award. Shona is responsible for raising funds for the Women’s Fund. The money raised is then distributed to community groups that empower women and girls to reach their full potential. The WFS is a constituent Fund of Foundation Scotland.
Shona Blakeley has been recognised for her inspirational work and the Institute of Fundraising Scotland will announce the winner at their Awards dinner on the 4th October.
Fiona McLeod, Chair of WFS Development Board added, “Shona has a great combination of passion, business savvy, integrity and interpersonal skills. She takes time to build relationships, listening to donor needs and enables them to see the amazing impact their funding can have. Shona has the courage to ask donors for support because she sees first-hand the difference funding can make and knows the women and girls the WFS supports may not yet have the courage, staff or opportunity to ask themselves.”
The Women’s Fund support a diverse range of projects including dance and fitness classes, counselling and support services and workshops teaching skills such as DIY, music or craft-making. Shona Blakeley Development Manager, WFS added that the groups are her motivation: “The nomination is really a reflection of the Women’s Fund for Scotland. I raise funds so that we can keep making grants in Scotland. I’ve met many of the groups we’ve funded; they make me feel humble and inspired every single day.”
The Women’s Fund is on a mission to tackle inequality by funding community groups that build skills and confidence; improve health and well-being; build social networks and allow women to move on from violence. It supports projects run by and for women living in Scotland. The WFS are on a mission to make a difference not just individuals, but their family and needs of the community.
If you would like to help women across Scotland and make a difference to our communities, contact firstname.lastname@example.org

Britain and India will formally begin free trade agreement talks in New Delhi and discuss the free movement of goods and people with a deal to raise bilateral trade by billions of pounds. Britain has made a deal with India in which one of its preferences are free from the EU’s common trade policy, and ministers are looking to bring trade policy towards faster-growing economies in the Indo-Pacific region.
Union Trade Minister Piyush Goyal and his British counterpart Anne-Marie Trevelyan will meet in New Delhi on Thursday, with the first round of discussions beginning next week. “A deal with India will put UK businesses at the front of the queue as the Indian economy continues to grow rapidly,” Trevelyan said in a statement. Britain said the deal could double British exports to India, and by the year 2035, increase the total trade by $38.3 billion per year.
India and Britain already share strong trade agreements, and over 1 million Indians live in Britain. India is looking for ample opportunities for Indians to live or work in Britain, and any trade deal can relax rules and lower fees for Indian students and professionals in Britain. Both the countries have already negotiated an enhanced trading partnership announced last year and can sign a limited-scope interim free trade agreement.

January 1 marks the beginning of one of my favorite times of year: garden planning time. I tend to make plans rather than resolutions, and planning my garden is always so exciting. I imagine the beautiful flowers and delicious foods I’ll grow, ignoring the possibilities of weeds, droughts, and pests. Flipping through those glossy, colorful seed catalogues is enough to make my mouth water. 2012 will mark our fourth gardening year here at our home, and before that I lived on a farm surrounded by orchards and fields of a variety of different crops. Even with those experiences, I’m far from a gardening expert.
This year, I’ve made a list of ten foods that I’ve never grown before. I want to learn about them and learn to grow, cook, and preserve them. They’re not “new” foods, but they’re new to my garden.
1. Peach Trees
Peaches are my husband’s favorite fruit, and his favorite dessert is peach pie. I was spoiled enough to have a peach orchard on the farm, and so I know that a supermarket peach just cannot compare to one that you pluck off the tree yourself. When you bite into that peach, still warm from the hot summer sun, and the juices run down your arm, that’s a pure delight that everyone should get to experience.
I plan to plant three trees to add to our tiny little orchard of six apple trees that we planted a few years ago. Growing fruit trees at home is different from those grown in a bigger orchard, and I like to select trees grown on dwarf roots, which will keep them smaller and enable us to pick them without climbing a ladder. I haven’t chosen the varieties yet, but I want them to all be freestone, which means the flesh will separate easily from the pit when sliced open, and I plan to eat them fresh, bake with them, and preserve them by canning and freezing.
2. A Cherry Tree
To continue adding to our little home orchard, I’m going to plant a cherry tree. I am a huge fan of sweet cherries and love to eat them until my fingernails are stained purple. The problem is that my wallet can’t support my cherry habit, with the price sometimes topping $5 per pound.
I would like to plant a multi-variety tree, which consists of three to four different varieties grafted onto one dwarf root. There are a few benefits to this, including saving space in our yard, elongating the season because different varieties will ripen at different times, and giving us the flavor excitement of white cherries growing alongside dark ruby cherries. Again, it’ll be a few years before any cherries are harvested.
3. Golden Raspberries
Continuing with our discussion of ridiculously expensive fruit, the golden (or white) raspberry is another favorite. I’ve seen these golden beauties priced as high as $6 per half-pint. A half-pint is about how much I can shove into my mouth at one time! We have a little berry patch in our yard, and I’m going to add six golden raspberry canes to it this spring.
My son Joshua (who is currently 21 months old) loves to pick berries and pop them into his mouth, so our berry patch is one of his favorite summer hangouts. It’s fantastic that he will be able to enjoy a small crop of golden raspberries in their first season at our house.
I have seen the health benefits of blueberries plastered all over the place. It seems that they are a superfood chock full of antioxidants and phytonutrients. I don’t really care about the health food buzz word du jour — all I know is that they’re a favorite around here.
We’re going to add two blueberry bushes to our berry patch this summer, and hope for a good harvest in the following year. I’m also going to have to invest in some bird netting, since blueberries are a favorite snack for local birds. Nets are a great, safe alternative to pesticides, and I have vivid memories of playing dress up in blueberry nets as a kid. They make beautiful bridal veils, in case you were wondering.
Who doesn’t love watermelon in summer? It’s a staple at summer picnics, but I have shied away from growing it in the past because of the space it takes up in the garden. Those vines needs space to spread out, and this year I’m going to look for a variety that is good for home gardening and I might even try to have it climb a trellis. We’ll see.
I’m a big fan of the “Sugar Baby” watermelons, which produce small, dark green fruits with bright pink flesh and black seeds. I don’t know why, but something just feels wrong to me about seedless watermelon. Plus it is fun to spit out those seeds. I have heard fabulous things about dehydrated watermelon and how sweet it is, and I would love to try dehydrating any that we don’t gobble up fresh.
Need I say more? We all love garlic, don’t we? Garlic makes everything better. I use garlic in my cooking almost every night, so it’s about time for me to learn how to grow it. Garlic is planted in the fall, so I’ll have a long time before I have to pick out what variety I want to grow.
After garlic is harvested, it can be dried and the stems can be braided together and hung up to continue drying. This will have the benefit of decorating my kitchen pantry while at the same time warding off vampires.
I’ve grown cabbage in the past without much success. It has a long growing season, with planting it early in the spring and not harvesting it until late summer or into the fall. I’m usually too impatient for it to be taking up space in my small garden. But this year, I’m going to grow some green and red cabbage.
We love to eat cabbage raw in coleslaw, sauteed in butter or chicken broth, or fermented in sauerkraut. There are a variety of health benefits of eating fermented foods, but I’m pretty sure those are negated if you put it on a hot dog. Either way, I would like to learn to make sauerkraut and a friend has promised to teach me her crock pot method, while my uncle is going to teach me his pressure canner method. Now I just need to grow some!
It seems to me that no veggie better represents the “back-to-the-land” or “urban homesteading” movement than kale. Its dark, frillly leaves are beacons of health, but I have a confession: I don’t like kale all that much. I know I should, but I just don’t. I think it is really pretty and have always liked the ornamental purple and green kale that’s sold in the fall, but this year I want to learn to cook it so that I will enjoy eating it.
Kale is rich in folate, an important nutrient for all women, especially moms-to-be. Since we are thinking about adding to our family in 2012, kale is a good food for me to learn to love. These kale chips look like a good place to start!
9. Baking Potatoes
I have found that both red potatoes and Yukon golds are relatively easy to grow in my home garden. I basically plant them and ignore them until they look like they’re dead, then dig up a bounty of potatoes. I’m hoping that baking potatoes will be just as simple. I know that Joshua will love digging in the dirt this coming season!
In the past, I’ve timed my plantings poorly and had all of my potatoes ready at the same time. This year, I’d like to do a better job with succession plantings so that I can scatter the harvest and have them fresh for a longer period of time. I would also like to learn more about cold storage and keeping them throughout the winter months.
Yes, I am aware that eggs do not grow on trees. I’m planning to get chickens this spring! Now, anybody who knows me knows that I have been pining for chickens and planning to get them each spring. Well, this year I mean it! Eggs are so good for us in so many ways, and it won’t take many chickens to keep up with our family’s needs. I’m thinking a small flock of four hens will be sufficient.
I’ve already checked on zoning regulations, and our town allows for a flock of up to 20 hens in a yard our size. My husband, who is a builder by trade, will build a small, safe coop with an attached yard for them. We will be able to feed them kitchen scraps and compost their waste for use in our gardens. I have my heart set on chickens that will lay colored eggs, and I think that chicks will be the perfect Easter present for Joshua.
Now that I’ve got my top ten list, I can go back to daydreaming and thumbing through catalogues. I will post updates throughout the year, so you can see how my garden is growing, try out some recipes, and learn about preserving this food, too. Not only will we benefit from nutritious food, we’ll also be reducing our environmental impact and learning while growing together as a family.
Are you making any healthy food resolutions for the new year? Do you have any garden plans yet? Can you give me any tips?

Considerations in the best mattress for couples

Purple California Hyper-Elastic Polymer Mattress
This brand of mattress integrates memory foam and polymer in its construction. Rather than the top layer having foam, as is popular with most memory foam brands, this 3-layered mattress has a unique hyper-elastic polymer grid.
This helps conform to your body and relieves pressure by distributing your body weight. Airflow is improved to ensure the mattress stays cool, thanks to the top layer lacking heat-retaining foam.
Furthermore, the polymer grid helps to reduce motion transfer. The polymer grid’s white powder coating is entirely safe. It’s mostly used for protecting the polymer grid when the product is compressed for packing and delivery.
For extra support, the base layer comes with 4-inches of 2 PCF high-density polyfoam. Its transitional layer is created with 3.5″ of 1.8 PCF polyfoam that offers a comfy sink level.
The breathable and softcover is created with 29 percent Viscose, Polyester 67 percent, and Lycra® Spandex 4 percent. A zipper permits easy access when taking it out for cleaning up.
You and your partner can choose California King, Queen, or King, based on your sleeping arrangements and weights. Purple King mattress does well at motion isolation, heat distribution, airflow, and pressure relief.
But it might not be the best brand for you and your partner as it comes with a 9.5-inch thin profile.
- Convenient shipping

The most popular materials used to make mattresses are coils, latex foam, and memory foam. Each of these materials comes with different weaknesses and strengths.
Coils provide high responsiveness, air circulation, and support level; however, they are ultimately susceptible to sagging.

It helps provide you with its best qualities while minimizing its respective disadvantages. The versatility shown by this mattress helps make it the best brand for couples with various preferences.
Voila, Box Luxury Hybrid Coil-Spring Latex has an 11-inch profile, multiple memory foam layers. This helps relieve pressure points, edge support thanks to polyfoam.
Also, there’s responsive latex foam that transmits the coils’ bounce beneath, acting as a transitional shock-absorber. This highly-rated product will accommodate each kind of sleeper.
It offers multiple sizes, which include Queen and King, three profiles, and plush, medium, and firm choices. The mattress manufacturer provides a 100 night’s sleep trial period and gives a donation of one mattress for every 10 they sell.

This mattress is the perfect for you and your partner if you want the traditional feel and budget-friendly choice of a spring mattress. In the support layer of this mattress, there’s a 9-inches 13 gauge pocketed coil system.
Each coil is wrapped separately to curb motion and disperse your bodyweight evenly. This will help relieve pressure points and stop sleep interruption by avoiding motion transfer when your better half moves during the night.
The mattress durability gets impacted by coil gauge ratings. Many pocketed coil mattresses come with a gauge rating of between 14 and 17. A low rating model is best for big couples that denote thicker coils.
This helps your mattress accommodate the bulky weight. If the numbers are high, the coils are thicker, and the quicker they will wear out. This mattress can accommodate big couples easily, thanks to a 13 gauge rate.
When sleeping on this mattress, it will react to your pressure and temperature to support your body curves. The hypoallergenic bamboo cover offers effectiveness and durability at regulating temperature and absorbing sweat.
Additionally, bamboo is good at getting rid of smells. This mattress is firm with a 12-inch profile thickness.

- Gel infused memory foam regulates temperature while conforming to the body to...
It is perfect for those big couples who weigh at least 90 kgs. Weighty people create more sinkage because of their weight that exerts extra pressure.
They also retain more heat as fat is an insulator, and their bodies have a smaller surface area to volume ratio that doesn’t let heat escape easily.
To prevent this, these people require a sturdy and thick model that’s cool for comfort and excellent support. The mattress will deal with this by combining different foam types and coils to offer enough support.
These layers have 2- inches of high-density foam for supporting the base, 1.5 inches of foam for a comfy sleeping surface, and one inch of gel memory foam that disperses the body’s heat and promotes airflow.
The 7.5 inches of coils offer compression and edge relief, and pressure points relief. In addition, the pocket-wrapped Dura coils move separately to improve motion isolation, bounce, and air circulation.
A medium to firm model that’s at least 12-inches is perfect for weighty people. This mattress is adequately set for deep compression support with medium firmness and a 13-inch profile thickness.
This will help prevent you from sinking into the discomforting base layer and protect the mattress from warping. This mattress is a durable investment that also has a 2-inch washable cover.
This is to ensure the mattress stays clean though several buyers have complained that it’s very firm for them.
- Washable cover
- Compression and edge support
- Motion isolation
- Cooling gel memory foam
- Hybrid construction
- It May look too rigid for people weighing less than 90 kgs

This week, Ira spoke with Impressionist Rick Michel.
Rick Michel, who will be performing “Sinatra Forever starring Rick Michel” with his 24-piece orchestra at the M Resort on Saturday, February 23rd, has been a master impressionist for more than thirty years. He has shared the stage with Rich Little, Mickey Rooney, John Byner and Sherman Hemsley, among others, and entertained celebrities such as Frank Sinatra, President Gerald Ford, Tony Curtis and Steve Allen.
A memorable highlight of Michel’s career came when he performed his impression of Bob Hope for the comedic icon himself, at the Bob Hope Celebrity Golf Classic in Palm Springs. Other career highlights included appearances in an episode of “Baywatch,” America’s Funniest People” and the “Larry King Show.”
Performing in Las Vegas since 1981, Michel has been up one end of the Strip to the other. From the Stratosphere Hotel to the Tropicana Hotel, Michel has enjoyed Las Vegas being home as well as his work place.

The past year has presented the medical industry with new challenges that humanity has hardly faced before. The situation in the world has accelerated the rapid pace of software development for medical devices and made people realize the irreplaceable role of high technology in their lives. Moreover, the interest of healthcare organizations in the Internet of Things has grown to keep pace with the era of telemedicine services.
The Internet of Things is a network of physical objects that receive information from the environment using sensors and software and transmit it to other devices or systems via the Internet. For healthcare, this means the integration of medical device software with clinic systems, which allows patient data to be transferred to the doctor without personal interaction, and much more. Below are a few key IoT perspectives that the medical world is taking advantage of today.
Diagnostics and Monitoring of Patients’ Condition
The use of the Internet of Things in healthcare makes accurate diagnosis and continuous monitoring of vital signs available to those who need it most:
- for cancer patients with immunodeficiency;
- for elderly people with limited mobility;
- for those suffering from chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, epilepsy, or even Perthes disease.
Such technologies contribute to the development of personalized medicine when patient data is sent to doctors who carry out accurate diagnostics and select individual treatment. After all, gadgets using the capabilities of the Internet of Things can measure the vital functions of each patient:
- heart rate;
- electrodermal activity;
- blood flow;
- The electrical activity of the muscles.
Among the outstanding solutions that use the Internet of Things, we should mention the development of the Israeli company EarlySense. A sensor under the patient’s mattress monitors heart rate, movement, and breathing. In case of any deviations, the medical staff sees them on their device.
This continuous non-contact monitoring allows early detection of urgent cases, reduces the number of admissions to intensive care units and emergencies with the resuscitation of patients, and prevents injury to patients if they accidentally fall out of bed. The device is also being used in some clinics to monitor COVID-19 patients isolated in hospital wards.
Another successful example is the SeizeIT kit, developed by the young Belgian-American company Byteflies in cooperation with UCB for measuring brain, heart, and muscle activity, respiration rate, and movement. It consists of a patch that is discreetly attached to the patient’s body and a magnet that is placed on the patch. The system detects seizures and improves the quality of life of patients with epilepsy.
The Internet of Things in telemedicine is a whole separate topic. In recent months, the medical industry has more than ever recognized the need for remote consultation and diagnosis. Telemedicine already today makes life much easier for patients with limited mobility and those who are in remote areas without access to clinics.
The Internet of Things is being implemented in telemedicine in the form of rapid analysis kits, such as tests developed by the American company Cue Health. Such kits allow patients to independently diagnose flu, inflammation, determine the level of vitamin D, testosterone, and luteinizing hormone and send these results to the doctor via a mobile application.
Another solution that the Internet of Things offers telemedicine is a tablet with built-in sensors, developed by Proteus Digital Health in the USA to monitor timely medication intake. Once in the body, such a pill sends data about the patient’s condition to a mobile device and allows doctors to track and correct the process of taking medications.
Benefits for Healthcare Facilities
IoT systems, using medical device software, not only collect vital data from patients. Such technologies can:
- monitor the condition of medical equipment;
- regulate the temperature in the rooms;
- delimit access to laboratories;
- monitor the availability of medicines in hospitals;
- to record the speed of response of the medical staff to alerts in case of a deterioration of the patient’s condition.
Systems such as EarlySense, among other things, send regular reports to facility administrators on bed rest and response times of healthcare providers. All this not only reduces the risk for patients but also increases the efficiency and quality of treatment, strengthens the reputation of the clinic, and helps the manager to better control the work of the institution.
Thanks to IoT technology, patient complications, and mortality rates are reduced, and their hospital stay is shortened. This significantly saves hospitals money and leads to a return on investment in self-sustaining Internet development.
The Future of IoT in Healthcare
With 5G networking infrastructure just around the corner, IoT technology offers humanity never-before-seen possibilities. The 5G Internet, with its ultra-low network response time and near-limitless bandwidth, will enable the sharing of heavy files such as MRI images at lightning speed. But not only that. The fifth generation of the Internet opens up unprecedented opportunities for innovative treatments such as remote robotic surgery.
In 2017, Ericsson, one of Sweden’s leading ICT companies, showcased its Haptic Glove at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. This “magic hand”, thanks to a robot with sensors and a virtual reality helmet, allows the surgeon to operate in real-time, being thousands of kilometers away from his patient. This technology opens access to quality treatment for millions of people around the world.
Modern technologies in healthcare, despite all their ambiguity and issues related to the security of the Internet of Things in medicine, insurance compliance, or equipment failures, are already on the doorstep. They are shaping reality step by step, changing the understanding of what is advanced diagnostics, treatment, and healthcare.

~Written By Elizabeth Johnstone
During our recent trip to Malawi in June, and since our return to Canada, we have been reflecting a lot as to our objectives and goals for WHI. Malawi was great in reminding us that values need to be the driving force, rather than “completing our goals” being the only way to measure success. Our mission as an organization is about equipping, encouraging and empowering our partners: when WHI is talking about individuals and relationships, achieving goals cannot be the end-all in measuring success.
Inevitably, before leaving for Malawi the question frequently posed to me was, “what will you be doing?” In this question, I interpret that doing meant what action, what tasks would I be accomplishing? What would I be leaving behind in Thukuta that they wouldn’t otherwise have? Shortly after arriving in Malawi, we received a good amount of disappointing news from the director of WHEAMS (Rodrick). Immediately, voices from back home hounded in my head: “Have we met our goals?” “What results can we show?” “How about “true” measures of success?”
Yes. I was discouraged from what I deemed as a “lack of progress.”
Over breakfast the next day, Amelia and I regrouped to remind ourselves what is the main WHI’s mission in Malawi, and our relationship with Rodrick was all about. We were thankful for the “bad news” arriving close to the beginning of the trip, as we were able to focus the rest of the trip on how can we equip WHEAMS to move forward in a consistent and beneficial manner. Our trip’s focus really became about networking with others and discovering other human resources that exist in Malawi that WHEAMS could tap into. I personally had to make a switch from thinking about measuring our impact in terms of results. I had to remember that frequently in Africa, Malawi being no exception, progress takes time.
I am more aware now than ever that I am a product of my culture. It took a trip to Malawi to feel a deep sense of rest and peace. During this trip I reflected on my own life and relationships: I cannot measure my self worth simply by setting goals for myself and for others. Somehow, in the last few years, I have begun to measure myself, my self worth according to what I have accomplished or not accomplished, and judging myself accordingly. I have managed to get myself so tightly wound that I needed both medical and personal counsel to figure out how to bring back a balance to my life. To create that balance I assumed there must be things that I should do to feel better, and things that I should stop doing to remove stress.
My wise personal counsel told me that measuring your life by the goals you set for yourself will always lead to disappointment. The key is to measure your life according to values you have set. When you are struggling, turning back to your values will ground you, either encouraging you to keep on in the direction you are heading or gently bring you back and turn you around. However, this world view can be counter North-American Culture, where success is built upon accomplishment and physical achievements.
WHI realized that our initiatives in Malawi must first be about working on relationships; listening, seeking to understand, reworking our assumptions and allowing individuals to self-express their strengths and areas in which those strengths can grow. It is in relationship that we can equip and encourage WHEAMS. Of course, we could move forward without considering the relational aspects, and attempt to measure our success by visual structures we have built; but then… have we really met our objectives of equipping, encouraging and empowering?
No. It is far better to move forward slowly and mindfully, than to move fast and cause damage. If we hope to make an impact on individual lives and communities, keeping true to our values of equipping, encouraging and empowering will be the guiding post.

With the holiday season kicking off this week, we’re looking forward to the feasting, traveling, shopping, and laughing to come in the days ahead. But before the holiday hustle and bustle is in full swing, the HMG crew wanted to take a minute to acknowledge some of our favorite reasons to be thankful this past year.
Posted on Sep 17, 2018 by Sarah Hetrick
Every champion was once a contender who refused to give up. -Rocky Balboa.
As reigning champions the past two years, HMG Creative is proud to have secured a third victory at this year’s Pixelwood Derby. A charity event for networking, healthy competition and a groovy time, Workhorse Marketing’s fifth annual Pixelwood Derby saw a record turnout with over 300 attendees.
Posted on May 27, 2016 by Jenna Meltzer
It was indeed a tough race, competing against some pretty impressive derby cars, but we are so ecstatic to announce that our team, Britney Steers, brings home the gold (plated plastic) for speed in the 2016 Pixelwood Derby! We could not have done it without the help of every member of the HMG team.

Flash flooding not likely to leave lasting damage on roads
ROANOKE, Va. The flash flooding which put parts of Southwest Virginia at a standstill Wednesday is fading away, and it likely has not left much of a lasting impact on the areas major roads. Virginia Department of Transportation spokesperson Jason Bond believes the flooding did not cause any major damage on any highways. He said the biggest challenge is repairing roads severely damaged by Mays rainstorm, particularly Route 116 in Franklin County and Route 460 in Giles County. The Route 116 repairs are estimated to cost $2 million, while the Route 460 repairs have an estimated price tag of $1 million. It has pulled resources off of those repair jobs onto other flooded routes.Bond projects the Route 116 repairs could finish around Labor Day.

Hillary Clinton rather casually mentioned in an interview with USA Today, published yesterday, something that's a really big deal — if elected president, she will direct the Treasury Department to close the so-called "carried interest" loophole that allows some financial managers to pay a lower tax rate than normal workers.
But it would also address what looks to most people like a question of basic fairness — one so elementary that politicians like Donald Trump and Jeb Bush have frequently made a big deal about on the campaign trail. They usually talk about closing the loophole in the context of overall plans to drastically lower taxes on high-income households. Meanwhile, Clinton’s proposal comes in the opposite context of an overall plan to modestly increase the taxes paid by the wealthiest Americans.
The notion that the Treasury Department can make this change unilaterally is a longtime contention of Alan Wilensky, who was a deputy assistant secretary at Treasury in the 1990s when fund managers began to exploit the opportunity to pay lower rates. President Obama’s Treasury Department has generally seemed to deny that it has such authority, but obviously a new administration could at least try to leave the courts to sort it out.
Carried interest, explained
A standard private equity or hedge fund has a compensation structure governed by the principle of 2 and 20. You earn a management fee of 2 percent of the total value of the fund, and you also earn 20 percent of the investment profits. That management fee is taxed like regular income (at a current top rate of 39.6 percent), but the profit share is taxed at the capital gains rate (at a current top rate of 23 percent).
Back in the 16th century, the profits of trading ventures to Asia were split between investors who earned a "capital interest" in the voyage and the captain and his key officers, who earned a "carry interest" for doing the work. Through a little linguistic drift, the 20 percent profit share for fund managers has come to be known as carried interest based on analogy to the ship captains of yore.
But this carried interest isn't just a fun a piece of nautical history; it's also a valuable loophole because it's taxed at the lower rate used for investment income rather than the higher rate earned for labor income.
The policy rationale for taxing investment income at a preferential rate is to encourage people to save a larger share of their income, thus boosting investment activity throughout the economy. But clearly taxing hedge fund managers at a preferential rate doesn't encourage any kind of savings. That's why there's fairly widespread policy agreement that it would be desirable to close this loophole, though of course there is interest group lobbying to keep it place and a lot of room for disagreement about what to do with the money that could be raised.
The case for unilateral action
Whether or not Treasury has the authority to do this unilaterally hinges on your reading of 26 US Code § 707, which is supposed to govern the situation in which a partner in an enterprise provides services to the partnership "other than in his capacity as a member of such partnership," in which case "the transaction shall, except as otherwise provided in this section, be considered as occurring between the partnership and one who is not a partner."
The idea of this rule is that if you are an investor in a partnership but you also earn income by selling services to the partnership, then this latter stream of income needs to be classified as wages rather than as part of your partnership income.
And according to the statute, the Treasury secretary is supposed to promulgate rules that help sort out what does and doesn't qualify.
The main proposal for unilateral action says the Treasury Department should interpret the statute as saying that investment management services qualify as services provided "other than in his capacity as a member of such partnership."
The case against this comes from the legislative history. A mid-'80s Senate Finance Committee report from the time when the law was written indicates that its drafters thought the certainty of income would be a key factor in determining whether income counts as partnership income or service provider income, and since carried interest is based on performance, it doesn't fit the bill.
The counterargument, per Fleischer, is that "there is no legal requirement that the regulations follow the legislative history, so long as the regulations are a reasonable interpretation of the statute."
Whether or not the courts will ultimately buy that argument is a separate question, but Clinton is committed to at least trying to see if it works.

FrontPage Magazine, April 15, 2011
Interview by Jamie Glazov
Frontpage Interview’s guest today is Ying Ma, a visiting fellow at the Hoover Institution on War, Revolution and Peace at Stanford University. She is the author of the new book, Chinese Girl in the Ghetto , which has been endorsed by Ward Connerly, Founder and President of the American Civil Rights Institute and the man who has led the fight to end state-sponsored racial quotas and preferences across the country; and by Xiao Qiang, Adjunct Professor at the University of California at Berkeley and a prominent Chinese human rights activist.
FP: Ying Ma, welcome to Frontpage Magazine.
Tell us about your new book.
Ying Ma: Thank you Jamie.
The book, at its most basic level, is a story about a little girl’s journey from the insidiousness of Chinese authoritarianism to the horrors of inner-city America. The story begins in China in the late 1970s, where economic reforms are rapidly transforming the country into a more hopeful, more colorful place, and where our protagonist immerses herself in a world of fantasy and foreign influences while grappling with the mundane vagaries of Communist rule. In the mid-1980s, she happily immigrates to Oakland, California, expecting her new life to be far better in all ways than life in China. Instead, she discovers crumbling schools, unsafe streets, and racist people. In the land of the free, she comes of age amid the dysfunction of a city’s brokenness and learns to hate in the shadows of urban decay. The book is a story about her journey and how she prevailed.
FP: And that little girl is you, you’re the Chinese girl in the ghetto.
YM: Yes, the book is autobiographical. It is about my family’s journey from Guangzhou, China’s third largest city, to inner-city Oakland, California.
FP: On your website, you refer to the book as “a politically incorrect memoir.” What makes it politically incorrect?

Archie Goes Trendspotting With Cosmo The Merry Martian In ‘Archie Comics Double Digest’ #275 [Preview]
Of all the improvements that we've seen from the folks at Archie Comics over the past few years, the most incredible might have been their response time to trends. There was a time, as recently as ten or eleven years ago, when attempts to capitalize on what was hot among the the kids these days could take years, to the point where I once saw a comic where Jughead wore a shirt that said "Don't Taze Me, Bro" about two years after that particular meme was in the consciousness. Which, now that I think about it, was probably the least worrying thing about that choice.
But no longer! Witness Archie Comics Double Digest #275, where the teens from Riverdale become obsessed with Cosmo GO!, a very familiar phone game about catching cute characters through the magic of augmented reality. Check out a preview (along with a look at the vintage stories that are published alongside it) below!
It's worth noting that Cosmo GO! is actually based on one of the more obscure but persistent Archie characters, Cosmo the Merry Martian. Originally appearing in a self-titled series in 1958, Cosmo only lasted for six issues --- all of which, it seems, were published as cliffhangers --- but in the years since, he's appeared pretty frequently in Archie comics as a popular cartoon character who exists within the fiction of Riverdale. Which, you know, is no The Elevenaire, but is still pretty interesting to see.
ARCHIE COMICS DOUBLE DIGEST #275
Brand new story! The new game “Cosmo Go!” is all the rage and kids are running all over Riverdale trying to seize rare Cosmo characters to get the biggest prize of all—Cosmo himself! Pop Tate sees the value in becoming a “COSMO STOP” and tries to get in on the success of the game, but through a mix up thanks to Archie, the Lodge mansion becomes a hot spot, and Mr .Lodge does not feel like playing! Find out what happens in “Cosmo Go!”the fun, new lead story to this comics double digest!

The streaming giant's "Gray Man," from "Avengers: Endgame" directors Joe and Anthony Russo and starring Chris Evans and Ryan Gosling, will have a budget "upward of $200 million," Deadline reported on Friday. The movie stars Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Diljit Dosanjh and Kiara Advani in the lead roles. Even as Honey and Monika reunite, he goes home and breaks down in Deepti's arms, apologising for his past insensitivity. New student Pat McClellan (Marshall) resists his advances, cutting Tommy down to size at a party ("Lucky in Love"). Connie eventually finds out Tommy really loves her and devises a plan to win him back and to get him back on the field. Trouble ensues when they find that the sperms of each couple have been mixed with each other. During a recent interview and in a Twitter post, Kumar said about Kapoor, "We are extremely fond of each other. Tommy tells his friend and non-playing teammate Bobby Turner (McDonald) that the trick to attracting girls is to show no interest ("Be a Ladies' Man"). Production on "Red Notice" — starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Ryan Reynolds, and Gal Gadot — was delayed earlier this year due to the coronavirus pandemic and no release date has been announced. It has a 28% Rotten Tomatoes critic score. However, during a routine check-up in the seventh month of pregnancy, Sandhya advises Deepti to try talking to Monika, who is probably going through as much as she is emotionally. Three soldiers meet ten years after their last meeting in New York, and find out that they have little in common now.

He journeyed to England where his dreams of success became real and where he met his future wife Eva Leale (Dorothy Patrick). The doctors suggest that the couples go for a minor procedure so there is no chance of pregnancy. It starred June Allyson, Peter Lawford, Mel Tormé, and Joan McCracken. Meanwhile, Babe Doolittle (McCracken) is seeking to leave a relationship with jealous football player Beef (Tindall) so she can get involved with Bobby Turner. It seems to have worked, as Netflix said that "Triple Frontier" was one of its most popular movies ever and was watched by 63 million households in its first four weeks of release.

This is a special valley, hidden off the beaten track in the south east corner of BC – filled with beautiful scenery, wildlife and history. Using my camera and love of the area, I hope to entice you to come and see it with your own camera and eye. And then you will experience Lardeau Valley Time. It’s a slower, calmer, restful time that will draw you into the area and make you want to stay a very long time.
I haven’t always been a photographer. For 30 years, I was a marketing professional in Calgary. I also spent some time teaching marketing at the University of Calgary in the management faculty. I was mainly in the communications industry, focussed on business development, advertising and Internet development. I was ‘there’ when the Internet was still in the stage of ‘what will it do for us?’ And was lucky enough to take part in some of the debates about the social implications of this new medium. Blogging was something no one could see coming.
All through that time I was concerned with how to communicate effectively with people. Always large groups of people. The goal was to ensure that they all received and understood the message the same way.
Then I took up photography…..
Photography blew my mind! Taking a photograph consciously or subconsciously involves having a message in mind. I see something I want to capture with my camera that will tell a story I see. But the amazing thing is that each person I show it to has an slightly different perspective to that story. I am fascinated with how my photographs start a ‘conversation’ with my viewers. I enjoy seeing what they see, remember or enjoy through my photographs.
This discovery was the start of my journey in the Lardeau Valley and led to my blog.
As a photographer of over 25 years, I have never been bored photographing my world. There is always a new shot, a better shot, a special moment to capture. And most of them have been shot here in the Lardeau Valley – within 100 km of my front door. I never leave home without my camera and there are so many times I have been thankful for that planning! It is amazing what contortions I can go through to get to my camera FAST. Of course, this is always after I stop my truck – well, nearly always. Luck is a big part of my photography as you will see as we explore the Valley. Luck in finding subjects and yes some luck getting the shots.
I should let you know that I am a semi professional photographer, retired from the hectic business life of Calgary, Alberta. I’m living my retirement dream in this photographers’ paradise. I love writing and photography so decided this is a way to do both and share my world. While I do show my photographs in galleries in the area, I am sometimes frustrated that my photos are shown without a complete context. The viewer doesn’t know when I took the photo, why I took that one and what was happening when I took it. So perhaps a blog will give the the opportunity to complete the picture. Let’s see!
I now publish photography books and will occasionally feature them here.
Also, I have a fine art site where some of my photographs are available for sale:
If you see a photograph here that you would like to purchase, visit my art site. If it’s not there, send me an email.

The college basketball season is around the corner and several Colorado players are getting some preseason love.
CBS Sports’ Kyle Boone, Matt Norlander and Gary Parish named four players with Colorado ties to their ranking of the top 101 best players in college basketball entering the 2019-20 season.
Here’s a look at where they landed on the list:
No. 16 — Colorado Buffaloes guard McKinley Wright IV“This is one tough cat. Wright suffered a torn labrum last December and still managed to maneuver the rest of the Pac-12 slate with the bum shoulder, waiting until April to fix it with surgery. Now that he’s healed up he’s going to be expected to shoulder big expectations as the Buffaloes look to win the Pac-12 for the first time ever,” Boone writes.
No. 39 — Providence forward Alpha Diallo (Denver West)“Diallo is the best PC player on a roster filled with top 150-type players. Truth is, we could come to find we ranked him 20 spots too low. Last season, the 6-7 small forward averaged 16.0 points, 8.1 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1.6 steals. Fifty-four percent of his shots were foul shots, which ranked top-100 in college hoops,” Norlander writes.
No. 59 — Colorado Buffaloes forward Tyler Bey“With teammate McKinley Wright IV nursing a shoulder injury for most of Pac-12 play, Bey emerged as one of the best talents in the league, averaging 13.6 points and a whopping 9.9 rebounds per game. Among Pac-12 players, he ranked top 10 in usage, offensive and defensive rebounding percentage, and fouls drawn per 40 minutes, according to KenPom.com,” Boone writes.
No. 95 — Colorado State center Nico Carvacho“Already Colorado State’s all-time leading rebounder and the second-leading rebounder in Mountain West Conference history, Carvacho’s 35 career double-doubles are also a school record. The 6-11 forward averaged 16.1 points and 12.9 rebounds in 31.6 minutes per game last season. If he averages the same amount of points this season, and stays healthy, Carvacho will finish in the top five of the Rams’ all-time scoring list,” Parish writes.

This article is a reproduction of Josh Bersin’s November 2018 Article on LinkedIn documenting his research on employee happiness and learning. We are very grateful to Josh for allowing us to reproduce his insightful findings.
We just completed some interesting research with LinkedIn, and the results are in: if you want to really enjoy your job, spend more time learning.
In the research we just completed, we found that employees who spend time at work learning are 47% less likely to be stressed, 39% more likely to feel productive and successful, 23% more ready to take on additional responsibilities, and 21% more likely to feel confident and happy. And the more you learn, the happier you become.
Here’s the research…
We completed a large survey with LinkedIn (2,400 professionals responded) and asked professionals a series of questions about where they spend their time at work. We also asked them what drives their feelings of satisfaction at work.
These seven findings are both astounding and intuitive at the same time.
1. When you ask professionals what inspires them at work, it’s all about the job and growth. (Not the free lunch.)
It’s obvious when you think about it. The most inspiring thing about work is the work itself .. and the opportunity to grow.
I talk about this frequently when I do workshops on the employee experience. Of course, we want the work environment to be great, but ultimately the employee experience is all about the job. (You can read more about “meaningful work” here.)
(P.S. In the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Brazil, India, and Germany “opportunity to learn and grow” is higher than the nature of the work itself.)
2. When you ask people why they would leave a job, it’s because they couldn’t learn.
Second, consider the answer to the question “what would make you leave your job?” Among these professionals, they state their ability to learn and grow is roughly twice as important as getting a raise, and more than twice as important than the relationship with their manager.
This reinforces the point I’ve been making for the last year:
“The Learning Curve is the Earning Curve.”
As soon as you feel you’re no longer growing, it’s time to look for a new job.
(Note: in the UK the biggest reason for leaving is “working too hard, unhealthy work environment” and in India the #1 reason is “not getting an adequate raise.” This gives you some insights on the issues in those countries.)
3. Professionals work a lot of hours. So learning on the job is not always easy.
As I’ve been talking about in my talks about in the article Learning in the Flow of Work, professionals don’t have a lot of spare time. Two-thirds of us work more than 40 hours per week and almost a quarter of us work more than 50 hours a week.
So if you want to learn and progress, you have to do it “on the job” and “in the job.” Watch my video on “Learning in the Flow of Work” if you’d like to understand this more.
4. We waste a lot of time on email. Way too much.
We have to fight our way out of email and messaging. According to this research, more than a quarter of us are wasting a day a week on messages that don’t contribute to our jobs. This means we need to step away from work to learn, learn in the flow, and learn through projects and mentors, otherwise we won’t have time.
This obviously gets in the way of our ability to grow and learn, so we have to force ourselves to step away.
Here is the data by country by the way. You can see that countries with stronger growth (Hong Kong, India, Middle East, France) are harder working countries. By the way, France is now one of the most innovative growth economies in Europe.
5. Despite all this, many professionals really do find time to learn!
We looked at how much time professionals spend learning at work, and the data is amazing.
Among these 2,000+ professionals a significant number (7%) are taking up to five hours a week or more to learn. They’re reading, taking classes, watching courses, or doing other things to advance their skills and careers.
Why are they spending so much time learning? Because it pays off.
6. The Heavy Learners are more engaged, productive, and successful than their peers!
How do these “heavy learners perform?” Look at the data. It will blow your mind. They are happier, less stressed, more productive, confident, and more ready to grow.
And when you look at the “medium learners” vs. the “light learners,” they are seeing similar results. 14% more happy, 13% less stressed, 16% more productive, and 32% more likely to know where they go with their career. So even spending a small amount of time learning really matters!
I also want to point out that “more learning is better than less.” The data shows that the heavy learners are seeing almost 3-times more positive results than the light learners. (Udemy’s new research shows this also.) So you have to make time to focus and learn.
7. This is not just a good thing for you, it’s good for your company.
In MIT and Deloitte’s most recent study of digital transformation (more than 4,300 executives participated) the most successful, fast-growing, digitally enabled companies are differentiated by one thing: they’ve transformed the way individuals and organizations learn.
And this means learning all the time, not just once a year. Among these highest performing companies, MIT and Deloitte found that 73% of employees in these companies are updating their skills every six months and 44% are updating them continuously. In other words, today’s successful companies are those who learn fast, learn well, and learn all the time.
Bottom Line: If you want to have a happy, dynamic career, make learning a high priority.
If you’re a professional reading this, open up your calendar and block out a few hours a week to read, take an online course, or do a developmental project of your own. I often take time on weekends, for example, to read and teach myself something new. With tools like LinkedIn Learning you can find videos on almost any topic you’re interested in.
If you’re an L&D leader or manager, consider this research in your strategy. Your job is not just to “teach,” it’s to create an environment where people can truly learn in the flow of work. Give people an environment to learn; promote and reward development; reward experts and leaders for teaching others; and look at the new learning platforms that let people learn in the flow of work.
As Thomas Picketty states in his book “Capital in the 21st Century,” learning is the key to your career.
“Over 300 years of economic history, the principal and most enduring mechanism for distribution of wealth and reduction in inequality is the diffusion of skills and knowledge.”
And it makes you happier too.
About the research. LinkedIn conducted surveys of 2,049 business professionals (all roles, including 624 freelancers, project workers, and entrepreneurs) in August of 2018. This included employees from the UK, Nordics, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Germany, France, Australia, India, Singapore, and Hong Kong. These were individuals who had paid for some form of online learning through LinkedIn.

I had a viewer ask the following question, “Can I eat yogurt and unpasteurized goat’s milk or curd on stage two of the Candida Crusher diet? I’ve just completed two and a half weeks on the MEVY diet.”
Goat’s milk yogurt is generally less allergenic than cow’s milk. In a very, very tiny percentage of people, goat’s milk can cause a problem. However, most people can tolerate goat’s milk products just fine.

- Is Your Discharge Normal?

- All You Need To Know About Giardia Lamblia
If it is a new food for you, proceed cautiously. I wouldn’t introduce goat’s milk yogurt yet if it is an entirely new food for you. You are probably better off waiting a while and focusing on food and beverages that aren’t new to you. Remember, you are changing the environment in your gut. You’re changing your intestinal bacteria. If you add a novel food into the mix, you could cause reactions that might be misinterpreted as stemming from a die-off reaction.
You can add goat’s milk yogurt to the Candida Crusher diet, but you should be cautious if you’ve not previously had the food. In that case, I’d leave it for further down the track when you are introducing other foods. That’s my take on it.

In a 2021 survey, 32% of all workers reported they were either “not too” or “not at all” confident that they would have enough money to pay for their medical expenses in retirement.1
Regardless of your confidence, however, being aware of potential healthcare costs during retirement will help you understand how much you should budget for healthcare in your retirement income planning.
The first step in being aware of potential healthcare costs is understanding the different types of expenses. Here, we’ll explain the three main categories of healthcare costs in retirement.
The first cost in healthcare to consider is your Medicare Part B premium. According to Medicare.gov, your premium amount depends on your adjusted gross income (AGI) as reported on your IRS tax return.2 Most people pay the standard premium amount of $148.50/month, but the premium can go up to $504.90/month depending on your AGI.
In addition to your premium, you’ll also have to consider the Part B deductible which, in 2021, was $203. After you meet your deductible for the year, you will likely pay 20% of most doctor services, outpatient therapies and some durable medical equipment (walkers, wheelchairs, canes, etc.).
The next healthcare cost in retirement that you should consider are any copayments related to Medicare-covered services that are not paid by Medicare Supplement Insurance plans (aka Medigap) or other health insurance.
These copays can relate to specialist visits, prescription costs and other healthcare needs that aren’t completely paid for by your insurance. Drug costs can vary by pharmacy, supplier costs, whether there is a generic option and more.
Speaking of prescription drug costs, once you and your plan spend a combined $4,130 (including deductible) on drugs in 2021, you’ll pay no more than 25% of the cost for prescription drugs until your out-of-pocket spending is $6,550.3
Expenses Not Covered by Medicare
Lastly, there are the healthcare expenses which may not be covered by Medicare and this is where your healthcare costs in retirement have the potential to skyrocket.
One example of a service that may not be covered under Medicare is long-term care. This includes medical and non-medical care for people who are unable to care for themselves. Medicare and most health insurance plans don’t pay for long-term care.
In addition to long-term care, Medicare may not cover expenses related to4:
- Most dental care
- Eye exams related to prescribing glasses
- Cosmetic surgery
- Hearing aids and exams for fitting them
- Routine foot care
While Medicare is a great option for many healthcare expenses for retirees, some people also choose to purchase a Medicare health plan to cover some of the above rather than paying out of pocket. Medicare health plans are health plans offered by a private company that contract with Medicare to provide health benefits.5 They may cover expenses that the regular Medicare plan doesn’t.
One example of a Medicare health plan is a Medicare Advantage Plan. Medicare Advantage Plans are offered by Medicare-approved private companies and may offer a higher level of coverage depending on your needs.6 Sometimes, Medicare Advantage Plans are called Medicare Part C.
The costs associated with a Medicare Advantage Plan will vary depending on the health insurance company you purchase your policy from. You can also choose between a Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) plan and a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) plan. You must have Medicare Part A and Part B coverage to apply for a Medicare Advantage Plan.
There are many healthcare costs in retirement, from routine checkups to unexpected medical expenses. Building the cost of medical insurance into your retirement plan is an important part of retirement income planning.

7 Facts About Fragrances You Probably Didn’t Know
Aren’t fragrances just lovely? From their unique and intricate bottle designs right down to the base notes, fragrances has certainly been a staple in captivating our hearts. They pack so much personality in one bottle that you just can’t help but spritz some on before heading out. Not to mention, the confidence that fragrances instills upon you is unlike any other.
That said, can you honestly say that you know everything about perfumes despite using and loving them for years? Chances are, you probably think you do, but here is a list that will prove you wrong as the depth of fragrances go far beyond their scent. As such, here are 7 lesser known facts about fragrances that you probably didn’t know.
1. Moisturizing Before Applying Perfume is a Must
Prior to applying your fav scents all over your sweet spots, you might want to moisturize those areas properly. In doing so, your perfume will actually last much longer as the moisturizer will diffuse much better on moisturized and hydrated skin.
2. Do Not Spray Perfume On Your Hair
I am sure you may have seen it in some shows or cartoons and you may even have done it yourself. After all, you might want reassure yourself that you smell even better but PLEASE refrain from doing so. You see, perfumes contain alcohol and special oils which, when sprayed on your hair will cause extreme dryness thus leading to scalp irritation and maybe even dandruff.
3. Rubbing On Your Wrists is a No-No
If you’re stuck in the habit of rubbing your wrists together after applying perfume on them, for the love of all things that are holy, STOP! Perfumes are a very delicate and complex combination of scents that are defined by 3 primary notes which are: top notes, heart notes, and base notes.
By rubbing your wrists together, you completely destroy all three of those notes and alter the scent completely. This is because the friction caused by rubbing your wrists together increases the interaction between the fragrance and your skin’s natural oils, which ends up distorting the scent.
It is honestly super triggering when I see people who purchase those hyper-expensive luxury perfumes like ‘Creed Aventus’ and commit fragrance blasphemy by rubbing in the scent.
4. Always Apply Fragrances on Pulse Points
Rather than wasting your precious perfume by dousing yourself in it, try to target certain points in your body which increase the effect of the fragrance. These points are known as pulse points and they radiate heat, which in turn, helps your perfume radiate into the air. They are located on your inner wrists, base of your neck, behind your earlobes, and your inner elbows. No, your armpits are not pulse points so please stop spraying it there.
As a matter of fact, spraying your expensive perfumes on your armpits is not just a waste, it also makes you smell even worse due the musty smell your underarms give off combined with the intensity of the perfume.
5. The Same Scent Will Smell Different on Other People
When you apply perfume, the oils in the perfume will get mixed in with your own and therefore give off a different scent. Now that is the general understanding of it, but did you also know that the environment and your diet actually plays a huge role in how your perfume smells on you as compared to others? Well now you probably know why some of your friends still loathe your scent despite you using some of the best perfumes on the market.
6. Give Your Nose a Break
While you’re shopping for new fragrances, it would be wise to not suffocate your self with too many scents at one point as your nose won’t be able to distinguish the different scents. The rule of thumb here, is to avoid trying more than three perfumes in a row. You can also clear up your nasal passage by taking a deep breath against your shirt or use the bowl of coffee beans that most perfume shops will have on hand.
7. Women’s Fragrances Aren’t Just For Women
If you want to wear Chanel No.5, then by all means. Do not let the marketing of the perfume define what you should or shouldn’t wear. After all, you should pick the fragrances that are the most suited for you and that you love. This also applies to women as well.

As an Amazon Affiliate I may earn a small commission from items purchased in this post. Thank you for reading and for your support!
I’m updating this post since finding out some of the most special people in my life are expecting their first babies + it’s a strange time with COVID where you can’t really go browse all the stores to register for all the things + a few things have changed since I originally shared this in 2018 (yikes, rock-n-plays!).
When we had L, I might have gone slightly overboard with some things (see: my drawer full of adorable swaddles that I refuse to get rid of because they are cute — and maybe pricey). Now I can say that we’ve learned a lot about what you actually need and what is unnecessary. Live and learn, right?
My most favorite items/most necessary items and what I’d recommend adding as priorities to your registry are:
- A glider/rocker for the nursery
- A bassinet so you can keep baby in your room for the first few months
- A crib (this seems self explanatory)
- Crib Sheets (get two sets)
- Crib mattress
- A stroller — this is personal preference. We had both a travel system stroller that I could clip our infant carseat into and also my beloved BOB jogging stroller so I could be the running mom I wanted to be
- A good carseat for your newborn and for when you upgrade into a normal carseat (check out this website for great info on carseats)
- A thermometer — for infants you really need the rectal thermometer but we also have this one which is now great for our toddler
A few things specific to baby:
- Soft towels and wash cloths for bath time
- Bath essentials like body wash and lotion
- Bottles — get a few different kinds to try (don’t go all in on one brand)
- Swaddles — we had traditional swaddles, the Love to Dream Swaddle and eventually Zipadee Zips until L was almost 3.
- Diapers — you don’t need many newborn diapers if your baby is full-term, but you’ll want to get size 1, 2 and maybe even 3. You might have to try a couple different brands to find what works. I think if we ever have another, I’ll try cloth diapering because of how long it takes regular diapers to breakdown in a landfill.
- Wipes — you’ll need lots of these so go ahead and stock up!
- Infant Tylenol and Motrin — you can alternate these if baby gets sick and you’ll want to have it on hand versus having to run out to get it!
- Nail clippers — this will be terrifying at first but you’ll get the hang of it
- Side button onesies — those tiny necks are so fragile looking, with these you can slip on over the arms and not have to pull anything over the head
- Zip up sleepers — on the same note as above, get a 2 way zip sleeper and you’ll thank yourself at 2 AM.
- Diaper rash cream or ointment — we didn’t really need this until L was a bit older but glad to have it on hand anyway
- Teething toy (try putting it in the freezer to help the babe even more!)
A few things specific to mama:
- If you plan on trying to breastfeed:Breastmilk bags Breast pads (to save your bra and shirts from leakage)
- Mom’s One Line a Day book – I love writing down little things L has done or said in this book and hope one day he’ll look back at it and smile at those memories
- Boppy or My Brestfriend Pillow: this will save your back
- A wrap or carrier: I had the Solly Baby wrap and we have an Ergo but Landon wore the Ergo more often than I did
Things that will save your sanity:
- Backpack diaper bag — this handsfree bag will make your life so much easier
- Monitor — a good monitor will help you sleep easier
- Bottle and pump part steamer bags — don’t have time to sanitize everything? Toss it in here and in the microwave. You’ll be done in 5 minutes and have clean parts, bottles and time back in your life!
- Waterproof crib mattress cover — get 2, if one gets dirty, you can put the other one on and not worry about your mattress getting messed up while one is being washed!
- Hand sanitizer — you won’t want grubby hands touching baby if you have visitors (Having a winter baby, I was extra cautious)
- Sound machine — you won’t need to worry about making noise while baby is sleeping if you have a good white noise machine (we also had a travel one that saved us on car rides!)
- Pacifier/Wubbanub – L only used his for falling asleep and only until he was about 1 but it was a clear part of the routine and he was ready to fall asleep each time he had it.
- A swing or rocker of sorts – we had the rock n’ play and loved it but obviously don’t recommend it given what has come out in recent years. The MamaRoo is popular and any of the swings are good — not for sleep but for the parents to get a few hands free minutes (though you’ll probably want to snuggle all the time!)
- A play mat – we used this for tummy time and when L got a little older for kicking and grabbing onto things
- Pack n’ Play – we used this all the time at home and also for travel for the first 2 years (we even bought a cheap one to take to Ireland with us for L to sleep in!)
Things you may or may not want to register for:
- Diaper genie and refills: great to have if you can’t run a diaper out to the trash right away
- High chair: you’ll eventually want one and I HIGHLY recommend the Ikea one but we also had this one and a counter high chair
- Mobile: we had one for our crib, our pack n’ play and stroller. Maybe overkill but the babe really liked it.
- Books: black and white books are great for babies but it doesn’t hurt to also register for some other faves like Sandra Boynton
- Bottle drying rack: you can put your bottles and pump parts on here
- Bottle cleaning brush: this will help get down in the bottles
- Owlet or Snuza: we didn’t have this but I wish we did. It may have helped calm my anxiety
- Baby clothes – people will buy you lots anyway but it can be helpful to register for a few to show your style or specific brands you like
- Car seat cover: I had one and used it religiously for my winter baby and it also doubled as a nursing cover
- An umbrella stroller: you won’t use this at first but it’ll be handy later on when kiddo has more head control
- Burp cloths: babies spit up and drool but you don’t necessarily need special cloths to clean that up
- Waterproof cover for Boppy: again, babies spit up and drool and you’ll be using this lots
- Teething necklace — easy for baby to chew on and not ruin your actual jewelry
- Car seat mat — save the seats of your car with this mat
- Rain Cover for stroller — we didn’t do a lot of walks/runs in the rain but it came in handy in Ireland 🤣
- Bath tub — you don’t necessarily HAVE to have a baby bath tub but it can be helpful when they’re tiny.
- Clothes hangers for baby clothes
- Lactation cookies – these were a fave
- Grocery pick up / delivery service: I’ve hardly gone in a grocery store since L was born
There are endless items you could add but really all you need in the early days are diapers, milk (breast or formula) and a good place to cuddle.

To "Die Empty " is to die with no regrets of unfulfilled agenda, with no pending plans. This is possible when , after careful and deep evaluation , wehave arrived at our main purpose in life and when wehave fully spent all my energy, time and focus in that pursuit.
It is our inner self, our intuition, out gut feeling, which keeps on guiding us. We just need to quieten ourselves and listen to it and then pursue it whole heartedly.
How Can I live in the present , in a way that I live my true authentic self, no pretenses or people pleasing efforts.. My work, My love, My Time , My face. Slowly and intensely growing like a plant and dying as graciously as a ripened fruit, fertile, detached and after having lived a life well spent.
We find what we seek. If we are concentrating on the negativity , we are sure to encounter that and if we are concentratingon positivity we are again sure to encounter that too. It is up to us , what we train our minds to do.
When we are deeply focussed on shortcomings of a person or a thing , our mind conveniently misses the goodness in the person or the beauty of the object.
I remember going on a trek. It was a beautiful place . However we started concentrating on how bad the roads were , how difficult the trek was, poor facilities and we were finding no joy in the trek . Someone pointed out that there was so much beauty around , which we were missing and the moment we started concentrating and appreciating the beauty around we almost forgot about the difficultiesof the trek.
By being mindful of our thought process, we can train our mind into positive sid eof things and making it focus on them.
We will find what we seek. We just need to be mindful what we are seeking.
It is true that if we give food to someone , it may not really matter to him whether we are giving food to him with love or just to satisfy our ego. Then the question would come is why are we giving food to another . Are we feeding the poor to satisfy our ego or are we serving a less privileged person with food , just as a calling of our inner self to share the goodness we have received and express gratitude for the privileges we have received in life.
The same activity of serving food , when done with love, will definetelygive afeeling of being wanted and respected to the other and at the same time will lead to a true satisfaction and a resultant inner transformation in us,
Being before doing . How can we start an activity after ensuring the inclusion of love component in the activity. Many times we begin some service activity with good intention and if it is for any other reason apart from love , it is bound to create an unease or negative impression on the recipient
Like it is said , we may feed the hungry or give water to the poor but if not done with love or in the spirit of wishing whole hearted well being of other, then it is of no use.
How to ensure that whatever we do comes out of a space of love.
How can we internalize love, be awakened enough that whatever we do comes out of space of love.
Even before we actually meet another person ,we form a mental perception of that person , which may be based on theirexternal appearanceand it is most of the time coloredwith our prejudicesand is also based on what movie is playing, in our head, at that time . Our perception about others also gets affected whether we see them from a space of fear or whether we see from a space of love.
This happens throughout the day as we are caught up in our movie "about me " all the time. We are constanly thinking about our past and what we are going to do next.
Meditation or chanting helps us in breaking that pattern and makes us calm . This calmnessbrings us back to the present moment and and with this awareness t we can meet another person without our prejudices and we would be able to see the other person, as to who he actually is, rather than our projection about him. In the calm and aware state we can see the real " him".
We all want happiness , but are looking for it at the wrong places and through the wrong means. We want to purchase happiness, thinking its transactional. We start bringing transactionality even in our close relations , many times manipulating relationships to seek happiness.
True happiness is non transactional and it is an outcome of unconditional loving and unconditional trust in the process of nature. We love unconditionally and we trust unconditionally. Yes we may get frustrated at times when we are not loved back or when our trust gets broken . We need to have faith in the law and process of nature and make our best effort in loving and trusting unconditionally for their is no other way to find happiness and joy.
Many times, when weare looking for a solution to a difficult problem, itout of eludes us no matter how hartd we try. But having kept the problem aside, suddenly , out of nowhere, the solution emerges.
Our overcharged mind,has limited scope to accomplish, but a quiet and a still mind can acheive unimaginable results.We can find newer meaning when we cede control of our mind to our higher self.
I can remeber SN Goenka, ji's audio , telling us to stop looking for bliss during Vipasaana meditation, Just concentrate on the breath, observe the senasations and if the practice is strong enough, bliss wil be there.
Wow. What a profound , hard hitting statement on religion. Apart from respecting other religions , it also shows us the path of true worship, which is without fear or reward and just in the spirit of service or unconditional love.
Am reminded of a mystic baba who had founded a big temple and almost a sect , in Delhi, whom i used to meet very regularly , sharing this with me. " Most of the people coming over here ( mostly rich and powerful), come here , either by fear or for reward . They look at the temple visit , either as a means to avoiid hardship or pain or a fulfillment of their wishes or some desire. I still welcome them, with a hope that some day they would see the futility of thier prayers and actually start worshipping just for the sake of worshipping/service or just ib the spirit of service with unconditional love for god and all humanity.
Recently attended a Vipassana Session. It is a place where one enjoys aloneness, as there is no phone , no net, no communication through speech or written, not even an eye contact for 10 days.
Real deep sense of fulfilment with this aloneness.
A wonderful passage. A healthy poverty , as per me , a state where small things bring a tremendous amount of pleasure.
one who is pleased with small things, events or happenings will always be a happy man. One who is happy and willing to be surprised and tremendously happy at those surprises is a truly happy man.
The nature is always whispering and showering pleasant surprises in our paths. We just need to be open, receptive and empty to receive them.
We are alaways so busy with out thoughts, our preconceived notions and "closed to receiving " surprises that we miss the "gold" in our paths
Give with no expectations be it kindness, be it service, be it a smile ot be it something of a monetary value, not even expecting or waiting for a thank you.
Dont even bother whether a receipient is worthy of it or not. Have trust and faith in nature.
Mindfulness calling, listening, speaking, brings us back into awareness, that deep connect with ourselves.
It brings into picture the slow , planned , response or proactive conversation which is so vital in compassionate communication
So true. Even when people get unwell , they only look for a relief rather than a cure.
Relief is immediate but the Cure may be time consuming and may be painful too.
We are only looking for shortcuts rather than the mental or physical discipline required for the cure.
Its almost like saying “ O God , I would love to go heaven buutt can you make someone else die for me”

Macular Degeneration can cause low vision and debilitating vision loss, even blindness if not diagnosed and treated in the early stages. Because the disease often has no obvious symptoms early on, it is critical to have regular comprehensive eye exams, particularly if you are at risk.
Symptoms of AMD
Macular degeneration is a disease in which the macula slowly breaks down, resulting in a gradual progressive vision loss, at least in its’ early stages. Frequently there are no symptoms and the disease is only diagnosed when a doctor detects signs such as a thinning macula or the presence of drusen in a comprehensive eye examination. Early vision loss can include blurry, cloudy or distorted central vision or dark spots in your central field of view. With advanced stages, vision loss can be severe and sudden with larger blind spots and total loss of central vision.
Risk Factors for Macular Degeneration
Age is the most prominent risk factor for AMD, as the disease is most common in individuals over the age of 60 (although it can happen in younger individuals as well). Other risk factors can increase your chances of developing the disease such as:
- Genetics and Family History: Research shows that there are actually almost 20 genes that have been linked to AMD, and they suspect that there are many more genetic factors to be discovered. Family history greatly increases your chances of developing AMD.
- Race: Caucasians are more likely to get AMD than Hispanics or African-Americans.
- Smoking: Cigarette smoking can double your likelihood of developing AMD.
- Lifestyle: Research shows that UV exposure, poor nutrition, high blood pressure, obesity and a sedentary lifestyle can also be contributing factors.
- Gender: Females have a higher incidence of AMD than males.
- Medications: Certain medications may increase the chances of developing AMD.
To reduce your risks of developing AMD it is recommended to make healthy choices such as:
- Regular eye exams; once a year especially if you are 50 or over.
- Stop smoking.
- Know your family history and inform your eye doctor.
- Proper nutrition and regular exercise: Research indicates that a healthy diet rich in “Eyefoods” with key nutrients for the eyes such as orange peppers, kale and spinach as well as regular exercise may reduce your risks or slow the progression of AMD.
- Maintain healthy cholesterol levels and blood pressure.
- Dietary supplements: Studies by the National Eye Institute called AREDs and ARED2 indicated that a high dosage of supplements of zinc, vitamin C, vitamin E and lutein may slow the progression of advanced dry AMD (it is not recommended for those without AMD or early AMD). Speak to a doctor before taking these supplements because there may be associated risks involved.
- Wear 99% -100% UV-blocking sunglasses.
The first step to eye health is awareness. By knowing your risk, taking preventative measures and visiting your eye doctor on a regular basis, you can greatly reduce your chances of facing this debilitating disease.

uthash 2.1.0 Hash tables, lists, and other data structures implemented as C macros
uthash implements a hash table and a few other basic data structures as C preprocessor macros. It aims to be minimalistic and efficient: it's around 1,000 lines of code which, being macros, inline automatically.
Unlike function calls with fixed prototypes, macros operate on untyped arguments. Thus, they are able to work with any type of structure and key. Any C structure can be stored in a hash table by adding
UT_hash_handle to the structure and choosing one or more fields to act as the key.

The city council is considering a pilot scheme where pest control officers would provide a “free denesting service” during the main breeding season for the lesser black-backed gull, which is said to terrorise some Edinburgh neighbourhoods.
Merchiston Community Council collected 418 signatures for a petition that called for the council to introduce the service in affected streets.
Now officers have been asked to investigate scope for the service, which has been piloted by other UK councils including Dumfries and Galloway, to be introduced in Merchiston.
If successful, it could then be rolled out to other parts of the Capital that are plagued by noisy and aggressive gulls.
Councillor Robert Aldridge, the city’s environment leader, said: “It is a problem in a number of parts of the city, and we have been trying to find a means to resolve it over a number of years.
“We have looked at the pilot in Dumfries and Galloway and other councils and will get a report back in November on how effective they have been.”
Councils have no statutory duty to take action against gulls. However, the gull population has become so large in some areas that many are now investing time and resources in dealing with the problem.
Officials at Merchiston have said that they would identify the places where nests are a problem and get consent for action to be taken from the residents. The work would then mean that the council would only have to provide pest control staff on two separate days – one day in April and one day in May. Cllr Aldridge added: “We have had particular problems in tenements where the council, if it is denesting, has to get permission from all workers before it does anything on the roof; that is bureaucratic and expensive. The proposals from Merchiston Community Council are very interesting in that the community takes some control of that.”
Dumfries and Galloway Council offers a free nest and egg removal service during the main breeding period of May-July. It is reported that the service has led to an 87 per cent reduction in the young gull population.
Mairianna Clyde, chair of Merchiston Community Council, said many residents suffer from a “routine loss of sleep” because of the gulls, while she has heard reports of “people and pets being attacked and intimidated” by the birds.
“At some stage, some kind of control of numbers has to be considered but that is not what we are asking at this stage,” she said.
Fountainbridge/Craiglockhart councillor Gordon Buchan said: “It is a particular issue in my ward, and I would imagine it is an issue in other wards as well. It is a real and pressing issue for many of our residents.”

A costly delay
While county commissioners drag their heels, a money pit grows
Thanks to a string of bureaucratic delays, former Fulton County employees may soon get paid for not working.
Twenty-four fired county employees have lined up over the past year to appeal their terminations before the Fulton County Personnel Board. Half of them have been waiting more than six months for their cases to be heard. And the longer those appeals stagnate, the more the county will have to cough up to cover back pay if the employees are reinstated — which isn't rare.
Six employees could collect a check paying them a full year's salary for doing nada for Fulton County.
What's more, there are 86 additional employees contesting suspensions and demotions — and seeking cash for wages lost during those times. They too are waiting for the Personnel Board to hear their possibly costly appeals.
The problem is, there currently is no Personnel Board.
The board, which hears appeals filed by miffed county employees and sets salaries for county jobs, used to be manned by three members. Earlier this year, one member died. Another quit. And Fulton County Commissioner Rob Pitts proposed increasing the number of Personnel Board members from three to seven.
Pitts' resolution, which passed March 19, clearly defines the way the new Personnel Board should be created starting June 1: Each of Fulton's seven county commissioners names one Personnel Board member.
But Pitts' resolution does not specify a deadline for the commissioners to do so.
So far, Pitts, Commission Chairman Mike Kenn and Commissioner Emma Darnell have named their appointees. But the four others — Bill Edwards, Tom Lowe, Nancy Boxill and Bob Fulton — have not, despite being offered the opportunity at the last three commission meetings.
"They need to get on that," says Susan Laccetti Meyers, Kenn's policy analyst. "Mike can't make them do it."
Commissioner Fulton, however, says no one has expressed any urgency for him to appoint his Personnel Board member. "I'm not aware of that," Fulton says. "If I were aware of that, I probably would have moved more aggressively."
Edwards, Lowe and Boxill did not return phone calls.
Due to the absence of a full Personnel Board (or, at the very least, a quorum of four members), the Board couldn't meet in June, nor is it likely to get a fourth member in enough time to meet in July.
That's tough for Marlys Favors. The single mother was fired from her job as a materials assistant at a Fulton County supplies warehouse in August 2002. She says she's alleged to have used a county vehicle without permission and to have tried to collect money for recycled paper when she shouldn't have, charges that she denies.
Favors took a 50 percent pay cut so she could find some work, at a Radio Shack. She was looking forward to her appeal, which was scheduled for May — a painful enough nine-month delay.
Now, though, her case has been taken off the Personnel Board's calendar and is on hold indefinitely.
"I would love to have my job back," Favors says.
Bob Brandes, director of Personnel Board, says the board is supposed to hear appeals once a month. But with one month missed and another missed opportunity on the way, knocking off the 110 appeals is beginning to seem unlikely — and not just to fired employees trying to get rehired.
Maureen Malone, one of the three newly appointed board members, says she's as much in the dark about the appeals as the employees doing the appealing. She says no one on the County Commission has briefed her on the backlog of appeals, the process by which the board might tackle them, or when the tackling might begin.
"They said that someone would be in touch," says Malone, a labor lawyer and former chairman of a city Neighborhood Planning Unit. "Well, they have not been in touch. I'm just waiting."

Are you considering buying property in Alanya? Maybe you want it for a holiday home or more extended stays. Maybe you are thinking of relocating to enjoy the sunnier climate and laid back pace of life, or you might be considering somewhere for your retirement. Whatever the reason, make sure your purchase in the Alanya region goes without any hitches. How? Read on for some insider tips.
When buying property in a sunny place like Alanya, It is all too easy to get caught up in the excitement of the decision and the wide selection of choices. You may not recognize areas that require a little more of your attention. As with any serious purchase you need to ask yourself some questions that relate to the lifestyle you are looking for, about the area, the properties available plus:
- Cost vs market value
- Rules and regulations
- Fulfilling your requirements
Cost vs Market Value
It will not surprise you to read that ‘people’ selling property want as much as they can get for it. The price might sound reasonable to someone used to the higher cost of purchasing in other countries, but it might be hugely overpriced for the market where you are purchasing. Whatever your reason for buying property, it is always an investment. To be a solid investment, it has to be obtained within a reasonable price framework that both you and the seller are happy with.
Your realtor knows the current market conditions and will inform you of such. They can also help negotiate with the seller on your behalf to establish a more realistic price.
Rules & Regulations
Foreign nationals are allowed to purchase in Turkey under the reciprocity principle, where if your country allows Turkish to buy property there, then you can get in Turkey. The rules regarding real estate are not overly complicated, but you do need to be aware of them. Ok, most information can easy be found on the internet. However, the rules are continually changing and you do not always get to hear about them until you come up against them. Your realtor has to keep up to date, it’s their job, and they know where to find out information and years of experience of doing just that.
Fulfilling Your Requirements
This can cover a host of things, from being near shops and entertainment to being a far a possible away from them. Sometimes it takes the guidance of a trained professional to help you clarify your dream property into a reality. A realtor will spend time with you to get a perspective on what you are looking for. All the better to help you achieve your goal.
Want a pool? Do you know the added costs? Want to be in the middle of no-where? Do you have transport?
Using a trained realtor, you gain some considerable advantages over doing it by yourself or using a friendly local!

Linguistics is an art form that I particularly enjoy, especially when I abuse its form and structure through my art. It’s almost a grey space where I can ‘play God’ in narrating the audience into believing any versions of the truth, whether it is constructed or the actual truth. The believability and authorship is fluid and it’s up to the audience to decide on what is what. I’m Malay and I grew up in Malaysia, but I recognize English as my mother tongue. Internal conflict regarding my cultural background and the life I am exposed to. This battle of wanting to speak Bahasa Melayu is a daily struggle, even if I am currently living in an English speaking country. I feel incompetent to be recognized as Malay, as I don’t speak the language much, or eat the food much, but I don’t identify as a westerner either. It’s a constant back and forth of who I am, who I think I am, and who people think I am.
Many of us grew up surrounded by western media from the show that we watch to the nursery rhymes we sang. KL is also a cultural hob where English can act as a common ground between different races, despite Bahasa Melayu is the national language. There’s always this stigma of being Malay and not being able to speak Malay where you are deemed as whitewashed. It has always been a curiosity and a personal fear that I am beginning to explore in an effort to create peace for myself. Language does hold heritage and reveals a lot about the individual, but at the same time, I see it as a social construct. With each translation, a piece of me is lost, but my constructed cultural identity is gained. With translation, meanings are also often lost or comprised as something may not exist in one language but do in another and it does apply to my sense of self, potentially self-worth.
With all this frustration of language and identity, I decided to delve into another language that I neglected, which was Jawi. It complicated things but was a gateway for me to develop a new representation of myself through language. An amalgamation of my linguistic identities: English, Bahasa Melayu, and Jawi.
With the different representations of langue, none of them is superior to the other. I may have a personal preference, but they hold no additional value other than mere convince for me when speaking. As a bilingual, I am able to recognize the different languages and they don’t always sound foreign. I wanted to now explore our perception and understanding of speech. Something that we do without thinking, but unlike a written or printed text, it’s not tangible. What you hear varies, depending on your relationship to those different languages and accents within the layered piece. Depending on what caught your attention, you may hear Bahasa Melayu, but you may also hear English. At times you might not hear anything as the individual recordings were recorded with different accents using the ‘text to speech’ feature on my laptop creating a foreign sound to a familiar language, much like my combination of languages.
The different direction of sound also changes the significance of the speech in relation to the audience as an isolated sound may create a stronger attachment. Ultimately what you hear depends on what you consciously or subconsciously choose. It may or may not reveal your mother tongue, but the confusion and sense of longing created within the individual was the goal. To further emulate the sense of search and being in that constant stage of becoming, I’ve created 4-word searches that reflect the struggle with a slight political undertone, that is if you choose to acknowledge it. This feeling of want and search was necessary for me to manipulate as that is what I personally go through every time I try to speak my mother tongue. Gratification comes when I find the right words, but most of the time I am always in ‘search mode’, trying to form speech with words that don’t exist in my mind. The audience would also be in the ‘search mode’ as not all the words are present within the pool of letters.

What do you think of when you hear the term, Adventure Travel? For us, it is our post retirement dream!
For us and the purpose of this blog, it is where we are now, more or less! We can finally say we are “really” retired. Isn’t that a common goal for Americans, to become retired? I (Debbie) officially retired from a 20 year career in law enforcement in February 2006, but I ended up working part time for a few years and have been a regular volunteer. Bill said he never wanted to “retire” so his path is a bit different. His goal or end game was to be self-employed. His first full time experience as being self-employed was as a Snap on Tool Dealer, from 1986-1988, too short of a time, but those were very profitable years for him. Sadly, that ended when we divorced in December 1988 (but that story has a happy ending:Chapter 2 So why share about our marriage?) He formally quit the working world in October 2004. When he quit, he actually had a dream job with Nationwide Insurance as an automotive claims adjuster.
But in 2000, we began working his way back into self-employment as we began our path into retirement. That was when we invested in our first piece of rental real estate. When we moved to Florida in November 2004, he went full board into real estate rentals, peaking at owning six rentals homes, but also caring for our home, his mother’s home and helping my parents out from time to time with their home – all of us in the same town. Needless to say, caring for real estate in Florida is a year around task, especially in the heat of the summer. We sold his last piece of rental real estate in August, 2013 – a dream come true as we prepared for the end game.
My “retirement dream” was to be a volunteer and work in the community to help make it a better place for all to live. But as a workaholic, it was hard to stop working, so I started back to work part time for our Sheriff. That lasted four years and my time there actually introduced me to our community in a unique way. I made connections that helped me become a volunteer and allowed me to work with some of the most phenomenal people I’ve ever met – let alone have the privilege of volunteering with! I was able to do this for several years – and this will be hard to leave as we approach our end game – adventure travel! I’m hoping with technology, I can still be useful!
Bill’s “retirement” dream was to travel all over the United States and Canada in a Class A motor home (one of those big bus-type rigs that pulls your car and tows your motorcycle, also called a Recreational Vehicle or RV). Bill dreamed about this for at least three years, searching websites for the “perfect” RV and we went to many RV shows.
So here we are, months since Bill was officially retired, although he said he’d never use that word. But the other day, he asked me, “We are really retired, aren’t we?” I had to chuckle!
What has happened – why an end game? Probably the greatest thing a parent could ever hope for – we became grand parents! And that has rocked our world in a way we never could have imagined! See, our problem is that we live nearly 900 miles from that precious grandson! So how can we marry our dream goals? Well, we are working on that and so far so good! We are now saying we are adventure travelers – but swinging by our daughter’s to spend as much time as possible with our grandson.
This is a short blog as I prepare to tell more about our transition into full time retirement! But first, I always love to see what the Bible says about whatever we are doing. So here are a few of my favorite scriptures (all from ESV) to read as one thinks about retiring, from http://www.openbible.info/topics/retirement:
“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.”
“But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.”
“And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ‘This applies to the Levites: from twenty-five years old and upward they shall come to do duty in the service of the tent of meeting. And from the age of fifty years they shall withdraw from the duty of the service and serve no more. They minister to their brothers in the tent of meeting by keeping guard, but they shall do no service. Thus shall you do to the Levites in assigning their duties.'”
“A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, but the sinner’s wealth is laid up for the righteous.”
“And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.”
2 Timothy 4:7
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.”
“The plans of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from the Lord. All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs the spirit. Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established. The Lord has made everything for its purpose, even the wicked for the day of trouble. Everyone who is arrogant in heart is an abomination to theLord; be assured, he will not go unpunished.”
“Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;…
Until next time…

As the number of divorces of couples age 50-plus hits record highs, new areas of the law are being uncovered to help one or more of the divorcees recover. That's because at an advanced age, they don't have the amount of time younger divorcing couples do to reenter the job force or recoup their lost retirement savings. That's why reverse mortgages are a very hot topic on the mouths of a lot of divorce lawyers.
Reverse mortgages are a type of loan where instead of making payments to a lender, the homeowner actually receives monthly payments, increasing the amount she owes. Or, they might opt to receive a lump sum, or maintain a ready line of credit. The loan and interest come due when the homeowner dies, moves out, sells the home, or if property taxes or insurance premiums go unpaid. Typically, the home is sold to repay the loan.
This is a particularly attractive option for those looking to weather a downturn in investment portfolios, or trying to decide whether or not to keep a house post-divorce. Obviously, the decision to keep a house also includes considering equity and potential, resale value on one side, maintenance and repair costs, property taxes and insurance premiums.
For women in this group of divorcees, this is an even more TK topic. That's because they're usually the ones who receive settlements and are looking for ways to extend that windfall. A reverse mortgage on the house can be the answer to that question many 50-plus divorced women are asking themselves: how do I solidify my future outlook?

In 2019 Clare kindly wrote a piece for us to share to mark Severe ME Awareness Day, 8th August. She dedicated this to Jen Chittick, Screw ME, who also sadly lost her life to Severe ME.
It’s so hard to know where to start writing about Merryn and M.E. How to condense 6 years into a readable account. However I try I feel I never fully explain the horror of Profoundly Severe M.E and what Merryn endured.
Merryn was a happy go lucky, very loving, huggy child, a bundle of energy, a people person, endearing and occasionally exasperating in her stubbornness. A stubbornness I have no doubt helped her endure throughout her illness. A stubbornness that made her ask me practically everyday from the age of 13 if she could get her nose pierced. The answer was always the same – “when you’re 16”. Still she asked and cajoled and I relented and she got it done a little bit earlier in the end!Severe M.E has a myriad of horrific symptoms but it is also an illness of losses. M.E is a thief, it robbed Merryn of the life she dreamed of, of studying Performing Arts at LIPPA, seeing her friends, a family of her own. M.E robbed her of these in increments as she struggled to be able to talk, lost the ability to walk, to even sit up at the slightest incline, becoming housebound, then bedbound, unable to care for herself in even the smallest ways, unable to swallow, unable to eat or drink at all due to gastrointestinal failure resulting in the need to be fed intravenously.
For the last 4 years of her life Merryn lay in a dark, quiet room. Light, noise, touch and movement (of herself and others) hurt her and caused Post Exertional Neuroimmune Exhaustion – a worsening of symptoms following any type of exertion. Movement hypersensitivity meant just someone being in the same room caused all her symptoms to worsen, leaving her unable to tolerate much of any social interaction without having myoclonic seizures, becoming confused, disoriented and her pain worsening. And this worsening of symptoms didn’t ease, each time it happened compounded and got worse causing further deterioration. With Severe and Profoundly Severe M.E every action has to be thought through carefully and the impact they could have. Even when in worsening pain and needing extra pain relief Merryn would have to weigh up the benefits of feeling some ease to her pain against the damage that would be caused by having a nurse in her room administering the injection.
So Merryn lay in the dark, tube fed, often catheterised and in such pain, pain beyond measure or imagining and unable to even have the comfort of a proper cuddle. We devised a way of me lying carefully on the bed next to her with my arms around her but not touching her except for her hands or face which were places that she could sometimes tolerate touch. Merryn was cared for by myself and our local hospice at home for the last 2 years of her life. Her hospice Dr had worked in palliative care for 10 years and she said she had never witnessed such suffering as she saw Merryn endure.
Many people use the battery analogy or the spoon theory to describe M.E, but how do you describe Profoundly Severe M.E where not only is there no battery left at all but it’s a negative battery?
For us, the best analogy is a bank account. A heathy person is in the black with credit, sometimes the account gets low but this is manageable. Merryn was in the red, drastically overdrawn and each interaction, however necessary, such as the District Nurse changing Merryn’s syringe drivers or giving desperately needed top up pain relief injections etc led to an increased overdrawal. Almost like a loan shark – the interest just keeps adding up, getting more and more overdrawn. There is no respite, the debt gets bigger and bigger, crueller and crueller.
So many losses and so much pain. M.E took so much from Merryn but it never took her giant heart, her gentle, loving, caring soul. She was, is and remains my inspiration and the reason I will always fight for health equality in M.E, increased funding for research and awareness.
And the sadness is this is just our story. This is still happening to thousands of Severely and Profoundly Severe people with M.E. Lifes lived unseen and in pain day after day, month after month, year after year. It’s got to stop.
I’ll end with some words by Merryn. She wrote these aged 18 years old (3 years before her death).
“Having Severe M.E is like being trapped in your own body every single day. There is no rest, you are bedbound all day every day.
It snatches the most simple things away from you like being able to wash yourself, even in bed. Being cared for in every way possible. In terrible pain, from everything. Not being able to talk on the phone or have visitors and feeling worse about saying no every time someone asks again.
Months and months in hospital. Severe infections. Breathing problems. Low immunity. Problems anywhere and everywhere in the body. Paralysis. Severe hypersensitivity. The list is endless, and if I was physically able to type I would carry on. Spread awareness and remember all of us and all of those who have lost their lives.”

An Analysis of All’s Well That Ends Well (Shakespeare)
by Joseph Suglia
“Die Forderung, geliebt zu werden, ist die grösste aller Anmassungen.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche, Menschliches, Allzumenschliches, Volume One, 525
My argument is that Shakespeare is both the most overestimated and the most underestimated writer in the history of English literature. His most famous plays are stupendously and stupefyingly overrated (e.g. The Tempest), whereas the problematical plays that have been relatively understaged and underread until recently, such as Measure for Measure and Love’s Labour’s Lost, are his masterworks. All’s Well That Ends Well is rightly seen as one of the problematical plays, since it does not exactly follow the contours of the Shakespearean comedy.
One could rightly say that all of the Shakespearean comedies are conjugal propaganda. They celebrate marriage, that is to say, and marriage, for Hegel and for many others, is the foundation of civil society. In the Age of Elizabeth, long before and long afterward, the way in which children are expected to have been begotten is with the imprimatur of marriage.
But there is no marriage-boosterism in All’s Well That Ends Well, no ra-raing or oohing and aahing over marriage. In All’s Well That Ends Well, a celebration of marriage is absent.
Whereas Much Ado about Nothing and A Midsummer Night’s Dream end in anti-orgies, in collectivized, communalized, semi-coerced marriages, the wedding in All’s Well That Ends Well takes place in the second act and is absolutely coerced.
The play is about a woman named Helena who forces a man named Bertram to marry her and to have sexual intercourse with her. As blunt as this synopsis might be, it is nonetheless accurate. A psychotic stalker, Helena will stop at nothing and will not take “Yes” for an answer. She pursues Bertram relentlessly. As I shall argue below, Bertram genuinely does not want to be married to Helena, nor does he wish to be physically intimate with her. Not only that: There is absolutely no evidence that he desires Helena at the end of the play. Quite the opposite, as I shall contend. Much like her predecessor, Boccaccio’s Giletta, Helena is a monomaniac whose obsession ends in the achievement of her desire and her scheme: “[M]y intents are fix’d, and will not leave me” [I:i]. And yet, does obsession ever end?
When we are first presented with her, Helena remarks, “I do affect a sorrow indeed, but I have it too” [I:i]. She means that she affects a sorrow for her father, who died not more than six months ago, but is genuinely sorrowful over the thought of the impossibility of possessing Bertram: “I think not on my father, / And these great tears grace his remembrance more / Than those I shed for him” [Ibid.]. Her indifference to her father’s death reveals that she is hardly the virtuous innocent that the Countess, Lefew, and (later) the King of France take her to be: “I think not on my father… I have forgot him. My imagination / Carries no favour in’t but Bertram’s” [Ibid.]. All she thinks about is Bertram, whose “relics” she “sanctifies” [Ibid.], much like a dement who collects the socks of her lover which she has pilfered from the laundry machine.
Even more revealingly, Helena’s love for Bertram has a social and political valence: “Th’ambition in my love thus plagues itself” [I:i]. Am I alone in hearing in the word ambition an envy for Bertram’s higher social status? I am not suggesting that her love for him is purely socially and politically motivated. I am suggesting rather that her love is inseparable from the desire for social / political advancement.
When he takes his leave, Bertram does not propose that Helena visit Paris to win the King’s favor, despite what Helena’s words might suggest: “My lord your son made me to think of this; / Else Paris and the medicine and the king / Had from the conversation of my thoughts / Haply been absent then” [I:iii]. Helena lies to the Countess—and/or lies to herself—when she says that her love “seeks not to find that her search implies, / But riddle-like lives sweetly where she dies” [I:iii]. No, Helena is indefatigable and is hardly the self-abnegating “barefooted” saint [III:iv] that she pretends to be. Furthermore, she is lying to herself and to the Countess of Rossillion when she says that she is not “presumptuous,” as she is lying when she says that she would not “have [Bertram]” until she “deserve[s] him” [I:iii]. Who decides when she should “deserve” Bertram? Apparently, Helena believes that only she is authorized to decide when she is deserving of Bertram. Why is Bertram not permitted to decide when and if she is deserving of him? Helena is sexually aggressive from the beginning unto the sour end.
The fundamental challenge of the play is not for Helena to find a way to become married to Bertram. As I wrote above, Bertram is forced to marry Helena in the second act of the play. The fundamental challenge of the play is for Helena to find a way to have sexual intercourse with Bertram—to couple with him, whether he wants to couple with her or not.
And Bertram has made it clear that he does not find Helena sexually attractive. And yet Helena refuses to accept his rejection and sexually unifies with Bertram while dissembling herself as another woman, Diana Capilet.
Helena is not satisfied merely being married to Bertram. Nor, it seems, would she be satisfied with Bertram’s assent and consent, even if he had assented and consented to the marriage. She wants to possess Bertram against his own will: “[L]ike a timorous thief, most fain would steal / What law does vouch mine own” [II:v].
Why not take Helena at her word? On the one hand, she is saying that she is lawfully entitled to the appropriation of Bertram’s body, but that is not enough for her. She is saying that she has the power to break his life, but she would rather have the power to break his heart. On the other hand, taking Helena at her word, she is the thief who would like to steal what is lawfully her own. She would like to experience the thrill of transgressing the law without ever transgressing the law. All’s well that ends well. She does not want to take the wealth of his body; she wants to steal the wealth of his body. Now, this might seem a curiously literal interpretation of the line, but does Helena not deceive her husband like a thief in the night [III:ii]? She does not cheat on her husband; she cheats with her husband. She is like the banker who steals from her own bank or like the casino owner who gambles at her own casino.
It would be a mistake to see Bertram as an erotophobe, since he does attempt to seduce Diana. He is revolted by Helena. The idea of having sex with her suffuses him with nausea. Bertram acknowledges that he is married to a woman whom he does not love, but he swears that he will never be physically intimate with her. In a letter to his mother, Bertram writes: “I have wedded [Helena], not bedded her, and sworn to make the ‘not’ eternal” [II:ii]. He is so disgusted by the idea of having sex with her that he goes to war to escape her: “I’ll to the Tuscan wars and never bed her” [II:iii].
Bertram’s reluctance to be yoked to Helena must be seen within the horizon of the early seventeenth century. Let us not forget that Queen Elizabeth was the monarch at the time of the play’s composition, and within Bertram’s refusal to become the “forehorse to a smock” [II:i] (the leading horse in a train of horses spurred on by a woman) one can hear the resonances of Elizabeth’s reign. However, it would be mistaken to suggest that Bertram does not want to marry Helena merely because she is a woman who has been invested with regal authority or merely because she was once lowborn and poor. Again, he finds her physically repellent.
Helena does not stop until she couples with Bertram without his consent. Is this not rape? According to the standards of our day, impersonated sex is indeed sexual violation, but it is unlikely that it would have been considered ravishment in the Age of Elizabeth.
And is this not incest, for Helena and Bertram are sister and brother, disregarding the banality of biology? There is a conversation about incest in Act One, Scene Three, the conclusion of which is: Helena would acknowledge the Countess as her mother, on the condition that the world does not recognize Bertram as her brother. But are Helena and Bertram not sister and brother? They grew up together in the same household, and it is possible that Bertram rejects Helena partly out of the fear of incest.
The Countess certainly sees Helena as her organic daughter: “If [Helena] had partaken of my flesh and cost me the dearest groans of a mother I could not have owed her a more rooted love” [V:v]. Helena is the replica that is naturalized, much like the artificial fruit in the bowl that lies upon your kitchen table, which you accept as natural.
Fortune (what is constituted after birth) and Nature (what is constituted at birth) reverse each other: Bertram becomes the bastard child; the orphan Helena becomes the proper daughter: “Which of them both / Is dearest to me I have no skill in sense / To make distinction” [III:iv]. Much worse: The Countess raises Helena to a status that is higher than that of her own son, who is written off by her as a reprobate. When the Countess intones the opening line of the play, “In delivering my son from me, I bury a second husband” [I:i], you do get the impression that her biological son is dead through the act of birth, that her son is a stillborn.
Throughout the play, there are posited false equivalences. Convalescence is falsely equated to marriage, as virginity is equated to mortality. Epexegesis: The revival of the King of France is equated to the compulsory marriage of Bertram to Helena (Bertram questions this false economics of equivalence: “But follows it, my lord to bring me down / Must answer for your raising?” [II:iii]), in a Bachelorette-style gameshow that is rigged in advance in which she nominates Bertram without ever taking any of the French lords seriously as his competitors. The death of the King is equated to virginity, as virginity is equated to death in Parolles’ campaign against virginity (“He that hangs himself is a virgin; virginity murthers itself, and should be buried in highways out of all sanctified limit, as a desperate offendress against nature” [I:i]). The King strikes a balance between Bertram’s loss and Helena’s gain: “Take her by the hand / And tell her she is thine; to whom I promise / A counterpoise, if not to thy estate, / A balance more replete” [II:iii]. A fake equivalence, false equation is again posited, between the sacrifice of Bertram’s social status and the elevation of Helena’s status. One thing is taken for another, one person is replaced with another, as we see with the replacement of Diana with Helena. Such is the logic of substitution or the logic of substitutability in All’s Well That Ends Well.
Those literary critics who praise Helena as an innocent are wrong (I am looking at you, Harold Bloom), in the same way that the Countess of Rossillion and Lefew are wrong about her “innocence”: Helena is not saintly, she is not simple, she is not unambiguously honest (unless by “honesty” one intends “virginity”), she is not unambiguously good, she is not uncomplicatedly “virtuous” [I:i]. She is not reducible to the role of the innocent that she plays. Shakespeare’s characters are not undifferentiated. His fools tend to be wise, and his characters in general are neither simply good nor simply evil, but rather both good and evil—sometimes, his characters are even good and evil at the same time. This is stated almost aphoristically in the words of the First Lord, a gentleman whose role seems to be to emphasize that #NotAllMenAreSwine: “The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together; our virtues would be proud if our faults whipp’d them not, and our crimes would despair if they were not cherish’d by our virtues” [IV:iii]. The proto-Nietzschean Shakespeare is ventriloquized through the First Lord, I think. Both Nietzsche and Shakespeare admonish us against pouring all of humanity into twin buckets, one marked GOOD and the other marked EVIL. Shakespearean characters are of overwhelming and self-contradicting complexity, assemblages of oxymoronic elements.
For this reason, those critics who condemn Bertram as a cad are wrong in the same way that Diana is wrong when she calls him simply “not honest” [III:v]. (Let me remark parenthetically that Parolles is the double of Bertram, as Diana is the double of Helena. Parolles absorbs all of Bertram’s negative traits, particularly the tendency to seduce and impregnate washerwomen.) (And here is a second set of parentheses: Parolles is also the double of Helena. He ignores his social status when he refuses to call his lord Bertram “master” [II:iii].) Those who suggest that Helena shyly longs after a man who is unworthy of her are as wrong as Lefew, who claims that the French lords reject Helena, when it is the other way around. (I’m still looking at you, Harold Bloom.) Bertram is a cad, a seducer, yes, but he is not reducible to his caddishness.
Despite her indifference to her father’s death, Helena identifies with her father, Gerard de Narbon, the physician, and uses her father’s recipes to heal the King of France. When Bertram pleads to the Florentine washerwoman, “[G]ive thyself unto my sick desires” [IV:ii], it is apparent that he is conscious of his own sickness, and it is Helena who will wear the quackish mask of the physician once more. The first half of the play folds upon the second half: In the first half, Helena cures the King of his ailment; in the second, Helena cures Bertram of the sickness of his lechery—against his will.
When the King’s eyes first alight upon Helena, she seems a radiant presence: “This haste hath wings indeed” [II:i], he says, as if she were a seraphic apparition. It is Helena’s womanly charm, her femaleness, that resurrects him from the dead: “Methinks in thee some blessed spirit doth speak / His powerful sound within an organ weak” [Ibid.]. It is her vixenishness that virilizes him.
The King is revived from the dead. Now, Bertram has lost the right to say, “No” to Helena. Love for Helena is now equated to the obedience to the King of France: “Thou wrong’st thyself if thou should’st strive to choose [to love Helena]!” [II:iii], the King screams at Bertram. In other words, “You should not have to choose to love Helena. I have commanded you to love Helena, and therefore you MUST love Helena.” The word of the King is law, and to defy the word of the King is misprision. Behind Helena’s monomaniacal pursuit of Bertram is all of the weight of legal and regal authority. Love of Helena is bound up with love of the King, and an affront to Helena is an affront to the throne. This is to say that Bertram is legally and politically obligated to love Helena, as if love is something that could be compelled, coerced, commanded.
Here, the King of France ignores that desire is not logical or causal and is not subject to regal injunction. Desire cannot be systematized. We cannot program our minds to love; we cannot download love applications into the smartphones of our minds.
Were she not such a monomaniac, Helena would have let Bertram go after he refuses her, but she does not. Not once does Helena accept Bertram’s rejection. Not once does she turn her attention to another man after Bertram scorns her. Instead, she pretends to relinquish the man she is determined to appropriate: “That you are well restor’d, my lord, I’m glad. / Let the rest go” [II:iii]. When Helena says this, it is accismus, that is, the feigned refusal of that which is earnestly desired. It is not a statement of resignation. Nor should one mistake her demand to marry for a marriage proposal. Helena does not propose marriage; she imposes marriage.
It would have been noble had Helena renounced Bertram upon learning that he is a marriage escapee, that he defected to Italy and entered the Tuscan Wars and a likely death to escape her. However, this is not what Helena does: Instead, she pursues him to Italy. Her path of reflection is as follows: “Bertram left France to escape me; therefore, I will leave France, as well—and follow him to Italy.” Whereas Helena wants presence, Bertram wants absence: “Till I have no wife I have nothing in France” [III:ii], he writes to his mother. To say that she wants everything would be a gross understatement. She wants more than everything—she wants to eat her Key Lime Pie and refrigerate it at the same time.
Bertram gives away his six-generation family ring to Helena, who is disguised as a Florentine washerwoman, and this is ring will be returned to him. The ring seals not only his marriage to Helena, but also seals his marriage to the community / to the collective. The symbol of the ring is clearly the chief symbol of the play, for treason moves in an annular pattern. Treachery is circular; treason is circular. This is the meaning of the difficult and frequently misinterpreted words of the First Lord:
We are, the First Lord says, “[m]erely our own traitors. And as in the common course of all treasons we still see them reveal themselves till they attain to their abhorr’d ends; so he that in this action contrives against his own nobility, in his proper stream o’erflows himself” [IV:iii].
I would translate these lines thus: “We human beings are traitors to ourselves. We betray ourselves in the very act of betrayal. As we betray others, we betray ourselves—that is, we reveal ourselves as traitors and thus we betray our own betrayals.” According to a citation in The Oxford English Dictionary, “till” could mean “while” in 1603. All’s Well That Ends Well is believed to have been written between 1604 and 1605. If “till” meant “while” in 1603 in England, then this is a justifiable reading of the lines.
All of the main characters are unrepentant traitors, and traitors always betray themselves. We see treacherous treason in the treacheries of Parolles, of Helena, and of Bertram.
Parolles intends to betray the Florentine army, but ends up betraying military secrets to the Florentine army.
Helena does, in fact, deceive her husband, but this deception ends in legitimized sexual intercourse. Moreover, she lies when she says that she “embrace[s]” death to “set [Bertram] free” [III:iv], but she does so in order to affirm the sanctity of marriage. She is a liar who feigns her own death—but she does so in order to honor marriage and thus to honor Elizabethan society. In the eyes of the world, she has done nothing wrong. Who could blame her for cozening someone who would unjustly win? Would could blame her for deceiving her husband in order to sanctify conjugality? A Casanova in reverse, she takes a honeymoon to Italy and has sex with her husband—only her husband thinks that he is having sex with someone else. No one is devirginized, except for Bertram’s wife.
Bertram would betray Helena by cheating upon her, but he ends up betraying himself. He intends to commit adultery on his own wife, but he ends up committing adultery with his wife.
From a purely external / legal / formal point of view, neither sin nor crime has been performed in each case. In each case, the three characters have sinful intentions, and yet commit no sin. All’s well that ends in a socially acceptable manner. It is for this reason that Helena says that the reason within her treasonous marriage plot “[i]s wicked meaning in a lawful deed, / And lawful meaning in a lawful act, / Where both not sin, and yet a sinful fact” [III:vii]. And later in the play: “All’s well that ends well; still the fine’s the crown. / Whatever the course, the end is the renown” [IV:v]. “Fine” here means “ending.” The formal close of the plot sanctifies all of the deception that came before it. The ring turns itself around; the end communes with the beginning. The ring is closed, erasing all of the treachery and deception that was used to forge it.
No one is innocent, and no one is guilty. Diana implies the innocent guilt of not only Bertram, but of all traitors, when she says: “Because he’s guilty and he is not guilty” [V:iii]. The traitors of the play (Parolles, Helena, and Bertram) are innocent, though their intentions are treasonous.
One character after the other intends to perform a treacherous action, but this action is transmuted into its opposite. Such is the reversal of language: As the First Lord says to the Second Lord (in reference to a secret that will be communicated by the latter to the former): “When you have spoken it, ’tis dead, and I am the grave of it” [IV:iii]. Language kills. That is: Language has the tendency to say the exact opposite of what we mean. When we say or write, “I am lonely,” we cannot be lonely, for we open up the possibility of communication. When we say or write, “I am sad,” we are not sad enough to stop speaking or writing.
Concerning the intentional errors of language: The bescarfed fool Patrolles misuses words throughout, and this is always Shakespeare’s way of ridiculing characters he does not respect. For instance, Parolles says “facinerious” instead of “facinorous” [II:iii]. He uses an affected language, such as when he calls Bertram’s defection from marriage a “capriccio” [Ibid.]. He often cannot finish his sentences. Again and again, his sentences are broken off with em-dashes (this is what rhetoricians call aposiopesis). And yet there is some sense in his nonsense. When he intones, “Mort du vinaigre!” [III:iii], this might seem to be mere babble, and yet might it not evoke the crucifixion of Christ, whose broken lips and tongue were said to be moistened by vinegar? When Parolles is accosted by the Florentines, dressed as Muscovites, they utter gibble-gabble, such as “Boskos vauvado” and “Manka revania dulche” [IV:i]. And yet are they gabbling? Dulche might invoke Dolch, a German word that means “dagger” (after all, the Florentines-dressed-as-Muscovites are pointing their poniards at Parolles), and boskos might evoke “bosk” or “boscage,” which makes sense, since the scene takes place in a forest. Even though they are gabbling, there is significance in their gibble-gabble. Shakespeare cannot allow his writing to be meaningless. There is, in his writing, a tyranny of meaning. Even the nonsense in his plays carries sense.
At the end of the play, which does not end well, and which therefore belies its own title, Bertram acknowledges that his wife is his wife, but he does so in formalistic and legalistic language: “If she, my liege, can make me know this clearly / I’ll love her dearly, ever, ever dearly” [V:iii]. In other words, “I love you because I am socially, legally, and politically obligated to love you.” He speaks as if the knowledge of information led to desire, as if the confirmation of a legal contract necessarily issued in passion. Indeed, Helena has proven that she has fulfilled both conditions of the contract: that she pull the ring from his finger and that she produce a child of whom he is the father. The ring is given as evidence to Helena’s kangaroo court; the parturition of the child is demonstrated, as if this were the Elizabethan version of a talk-show paternity test. It is probable, however, that Bertram intended “ring” and “child” as metaphors—and yet Helena takes the letter as the law. Helena literalizes what might have been intended metaphorically.
Is the social, legal, and political obligation to love another human being not the definition of marriage? Kant defined marriage as the mutual leasing of each other’s genital organs, and philosophers since Hegel have criticized his glacial definition. But was Kant incorrect? All’s Well That Ends Well implies essentially the same thing. It could be said, with only slight exaggeration or overstatement, that this play is a work of misogamy in contrast to the epithalamia Much Ado about Nothing and A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Shakespeare’s most problematical comedy would suggest that marriage is the lie of all lies, the hoax of all hoaxes, and should be avoided by anyone who values solitude, privacy, and freedom.
When Bertram submits to the will of Helena and the will of the King the first time, it is hardly a profession of love: “I find that she, which late / Was in my nobler thoughts most base, is now / The praised of the king; who, so ennobled, / Is as ’twere born so” [II:iii]. This is the least erotic assent to marry someone that has ever been articulated.
“All yet seems well” [V:iii; emphasis mine]. There is the semblance of a happy closure, the simulation of a happy ending. Simply because the circle has closed in a formal sense, this does not mean that anyone is happy. All’s Well That Ends Well does not end well. All is not well in All’s Well That Ends Well. All’s ill that ends well.

(HealthDay News) — The incidence of COVID-19 is increased in association with long-term exposure to airborne pollutants, according to a study published online in Occupational & Environmental Medicine.
Giovanni Veronesi, PhD, from the University of Insubria in Varese, Italy, and colleagues examined the association between long-term exposure to airborne pollutants and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 incidence up to March 2021 among residents of Varese aged 18 years and older. The rate ratios and additional numbers of cases were estimated per 1 µg/m3 increase in air pollutants from single-pollutant and bipollutant models.
The researchers identified 4408 cases among 62,848 residents. The annual average fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure was 12.5 µg/m3. Independent associations with COVID-19 were seen for age, living in a residential care home, history of stroke, and medications for diabetes, hypertension, and obstructive airway diseases. PM2.5 was associated with a 5.1% increase in the rate of COVID-19 in single-pollutant multivariable models, yielding 294 additional cases per 100,000 person-years. In bipollutant models, the association was confirmed, excluding residents in residential care homes and after further adjustment for area-based indicators of socioeconomic status and public transportation use. For PM10, nitrogen dioxide, and nitrogen monoxide, the findings were similar. There was a 2% decrease in disease rate in association with ozone, which was reversed in bipollutant models.
“The COVID-19 cumulative incidence risk connected to long-term exposure to airborne pollutants suggests that outdoor pollution can sustain the disease rate after its temporal peak and irrespective of national or regional quarantine/lockdown periods,” the authors write.

There are 5 campground loops at Johnson Shut-Ins, a Missouri state park. We stayed in Loop 2, the loop with full hook up sites. The sites were very spacious and level. There are a number of pull through sites; although, we didn’t have one. There is a gravel trail which runs all through the campground which is great for walking and provides an easy access to the campground’s facilities.
There is no wi-fi or over the air tv channels available, so we brought some DVDs for nightly entertainment. There is a campground store which was open only on weekends during our fall stay. Next to the store is a very nice laundry facility. This is a most pleasant place to camp.
2. Visit the Shut-Ins
The main draw of the park is the shut-ins area. There is a concrete path from the campground to the shut-ins. However, it is 3.74 miles to the “entrance” to the shut-ins area, and then it is a small hike to the shut-ins. We felt it too far to walk, so we drove to the shut-ins area parking lot and walked in from there. There is a second store located here, and in front is a beautiful stone mural depicting nature in the Ozarks. We enjoyed the fall colors during our visit, a time when the park is a bit more peaceful. In the summer, this state park can become very crowded as people love playing in, what is commonly called, nature’s water park. Water shoes are a must along with a ton of caution. We saw two people slip on the rocks while walking just a bit into the water. Good thing they didn’t hit their heads! My pictures don’t do the justice to the beauty of the area, but here are just a few to give you an idea.
3. Visit the Black River Visitor Center
One day, we walked the concrete path from the campground to the Visitor Center. It took us a good 45 minutes one way. The nice thing is the path goes under the state highway, so no worries about crossing the sometimes busy road. We enjoyed the walk immensely. We also enjoyed looking at the displays in the Visitor Center, including some short videos. The Visitor Center is on the bottom floor of the building. There are also some nice displays out front.
4. Visit Elephant Rocks State Park
This day-use state park is about 14 miles from Johnson Shut-Ins, and we visited there on our best weather day. We visited this Missouri state park on a Wednesday, and we were surprised at the number of cars in the parking lot. However, we were able to practice social distancing without any issues. The walk through the elephant rocks is a paved trail which is about one mile long. There are a couple of alternate paths which ensures the path is wheelchair accessible. Right off the parking lot, there are a number of picnic tables among the boulders. After our hike, we enjoyed this area to eat lunch and to play some Scrabble. While sitting here, we saw a young girl with her grandmother walk in, both carrying sketchbooks. Later, they showed us their drawings which were excellent. What a nice activity to enjoy together and connect the generations.
5. Visit Battle of Pilot Knob – State Historic Site
This state historic site is in Pilot Knob, about 15 miles away. It is a smaller museum which offers a number of displays as well as 2 movies to watch. This site preserves an important civil war battle. There is an outside walking trail; however, it was a very cold and windy day. So, we hope to do the outside activities on a future visit.
Pilot Knob is in the area known as “Arcadia Valley”, and it is a beautiful area in Missouri. I can’t help but remember how my grandmother, who was born in 1898, talked about how she visited Pilot Knob as a young girl. She told me many times, she “hiked those hills morning through night.” She also said she was with some lady, maybe Mrs. Bogart, who carried a gun on those hikes. For what, I don’t know. Maybe because of snakes – or bears? My grandma lived in St. Louis, so I wonder how she got to Pilot Knob – horse or train? I will have to ask family members if they recall any more to the story.
6. Go out to Eat
For dinner one night, we drove back to Pilot Knob. We ate at Baylee Jo’s BBQ, and it was delicious. It was recommended to us by a fellow camper, and it was a great recommendation. There is also a Save-A-Lot right across the street which we popped into for some groceries.
My post describes just a few things to do in and around Johnson Shut-Ins. However, there are many other activities and places to visit. With such a nice campground and it being so close to home, we hope to visit and enjoy Johnson Shut-Ins and the Arcadia Valley area again and again.

The World of SVG
2022 Jan 31 - by Robert Giordano | Blog Index
Remember back in December 2020 when I first created Linkatopia's own "Official Account" icon? Well, there's the original PNG file I made, vs the new SVG version I just made.
Along with everything else, I've spent the past month replacing all of the old PNG icons and graphics with SVG files. What's SVG you ask? It's another graphic file format like JPG, GIF, or PNG and it stands for Scalable Vector Graphics. If you really want to dive in, here's the Wikipedia page.
Like you can probably guess from the acronym, SVG files can scale to any size and are made of vector shapes instead of pixels. They are much smaller than PNG or even JPG so they load fast! SVG 1.1 has been around since 2011 but, as usual, there were significant differences in how various browsers handled SVG files.
Welcome to 2022. You would think all of that browser stuff would be ironed out by now right? Well, kind of but as usual, its complicated. As long as you don't need to support Internet Explorer 11 (which no one should be) then SVG files will work in just about every browser. However, if you want to be able to use cool SVG features, like being able to change the colors of an icon on the fly or use CSS for rollover effects without needing separate images, then it gets tricky.
Many of the tutorials I found online for using SVG features in all modern browsers, were from 7 to 10 years old, and some of those techniques no longer work. I did manage to learn how to do some cool things, just using trial and error.
For Linkatopia, one of the most important SVG features I wanted to use, is the ability to make a single icon and change its color on the fly with CSS. This would allow me to create ONE SET of icons that could change colors to match 100 different layout themes. I could even give users the ability to change the icons to match their own color schemes.
I made an HTML page that I called my "SVG Workshop" and this is a screenshot from the latest version of that page. I used this page to do experiments with my SVGs and load them in all different browsers, on PCs, Macs, and phones. I learned what worked consistently and what didn't. As you can see here, I can color a single icon multiple ways, and I can even change the color on different parts of the icon if I "code" it that way. These are the new icons I'm using right now for stars, friends, tags, official accounts, and locks. On the regular site, the lock has 2 different colors, green or yellow. But the page only needs to load ONE lock icon from the server.
SVG is Code
In the previous paragraph, I said... if I "code" it that way. And that's because SVGs are XML code. You can make SVGs in Notepad! In fact, I made all of my own SVGs and I mostly used Mousepad (a Linux version of Notepad). For the previous site, I used Photoshop to create all of my PNG icons but I'm still using CS6 and it doesn't have SVG export. I'll save my Adobe rant for my personal blog, but the point is, I didn't need any Abobe products. I made all of my SVG icons in a text editor and a FREE online path tool.
The image above is a screenshot of my star icon in that free tool by Yann Armelin. It's called the svg-path-editor and it deserves a shout out because it's awesome.
In the past, every time I made a new theme with a different color palette, I had to create and export a whole new set of icons to match. Now, all of the themes use my new SVG icons. Each theme can set its own icon colors. A few icons, like the blue "official account" badge and the locks, have hard coded colors that can't be changed.
The screenshot above is Freddy the Cat's page, set to the "dark" theme. The main menu icon is dark grey, QR icon is white, the stars and 3-dot menu icons are blue. Now, take a look at the next two themes, keeping in mind that I'm using THE SAME SET of icons for all 3 themes!!
This is the "default" theme. The main menu icon is white, QR icon is black, the stars and 3-dot menu icons are dark blue with light blue fill.
This is the "hacker" theme. I designed the main menu button (top right corner) so I could modify the main fill color as well as the outline color. The outline is part of the SVG and is not a CSS outline. I can also set the opacity of the outline and fill independently. SVGs are so cool.
I still have a few more SVG icons to create, but once I have them all done, I will be making many more themes. Previously it was so tedious creating and exporting 15 or more icons every time I wanted to make a new theme. Then, I had to create folders on the server for all these files. Then, there were duplicates because some icons could be used in multiple themes. What a mess. Now I just have one set of icons. It's a beautiful thing and it opens up all kinds of possibilities for custom themes!

Avalanche (AVAX) is a relatively new layer-one solution that has recently seen a significant increase in price and adoption as the dominant smart-contract platform (Ethereum) continues to struggle with high transaction costs and slower processing times than its competitors.
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView shows that after hitting a low of $12.24 on Aug. 3, the price of AVAX rallied 205% to a multi-week high at $37.42 on Aug. 20 as its 24-hour trading volume surged to more than $1.4 billion.
Three reasons for the significant price growth from AVAX are its rapidly expanding DeFi ecosystem, the release of the Avalanche bridge to Ethereum and the protocol’s unique tokenomic design that offers dynamic fees and a token burn mechanism.
Avalanche Rush expands the DeFi ecosystem
One of the biggest developments to happen for the Avalanche protocol was the announcement of Avalanche Rush on Aug. 18, a $180 million liquidity mining incentive program launched in conjunction with Aave and Curve that is designed to introduce more applications and assets to its growing DeFi ecosystem.
Experience the power of #Avalanche. Welcome to #AvalancheRush, the $180M liquidity mining incentive program in collaboration with leading DeFi dapps–both on and off Avalanche– starting with @aaveaave and @curvefinance. And, this is just Phase 1! https://t.co/YGrrVB7Uqc
— Avalanche (@avalancheavax) August 18, 2021
Phase 1 of the Rush program is set to begin in the near future and will allow AVAX to be used as liquidity mining incentives for Aave and Curve users over a 3 month period.
A total of $27 million worth of AVAX has been set aside by the Avalanche Foundation to fund the incentive program with additional allocations planned for phase 2.
The program was designed to demonstrate the Avalanche Foundation’s commitment to scaling DeFi on the network and helping to “create a more accessible, decentralized, and cost-effective ecosystem.”
Evidence of the growth of DeFi on the Avalance network can be found in the increasing total value locked (TVL) in protocols on the network, such as Pangolin and Benqi Finance which recently surpassed a TVL of $300 million.
Ethereum bridge facilitates asset migration
A second reason for the bullish growth seen in the Avalance ecosystem over the past few weeks is the release of the Avalanche Bridge (AB) on July 29. This “next-generation cross-chain bridging technology” enables the transfer of assets between the Avalanche and Ethereum networks.
The Avalanche Bridge (AB) launched just 3 weeks ago.
Today, AB officially transferred over $100M in tokens to and from Ethereum.
— Avalanche (@avalancheavax) August 19, 2021
As shown in the above tweet, in the three weeks since the AB was launched, it has transferred more than $100 million in token value between the two networks as holders seek lower-fee environments to conduct their transactions.
The AB is estimated to be five times cheaper than the previous Avalanche-Ethereum Bridge (AEB) and it is purported to offer a “better user experience than any cross-blockchain bridges launched to-date.”
If Ethereum is unable to get a handle on high transaction costs in the near future, there is a good chance that assets and liquidity will continue to migrate to chains like Avalanche as their DeFi ecosystems grow in size and value.
Transaction burning improves AVAX tokenomics
A third reason for the increasing interest in the Avalanche network is the protocol’s unique tokenomic structure that includes a transaction fee burning mechanism that helps reduce the circulating supply over time.
#Avalanche burns all transaction fees.
See how much has been burned so far! https://t.co/LpxU9dtyXy
— Avalanche (@avalancheavax) August 20, 2021
As noted in the above tweet, all fees on Avalanche are burned for the benefit of everyone in the community as the hard-capped supply of 720 million AVAX is guaranteed to decrease over time. This could help increase the value of the remaining tokens in circulation.
At the time of writing, more than 163,000 AVAX have been burned, a figure which increases more rapidly as more users transact on the network.
The network’s fee mechanism is also set to undergo an upgrade to Apricot phase three which will introduce C-Chain dynamic fees on Aug. 24.
⭐Apricot Phase Three: C-Chain Dynamic Fees
Apricot Phase Three upgrade will activate on @Avalancheavax Mainnet at 7 a.m EDT (11 a.m UTC) on Tuesday, August 24th
— AVAX Daily (@AVAXDaily) August 16, 2021
The new integration will allow for the addition of a time-based, rolling window fee calculation, a capped fee range of 75–225 nAVAX and a block gas limit of 8 million gas.

Many of us have been building our lives around the invisible safety net that we had our parents tell us about; as their parents told me. Unfortunately, in recent years, the fantasy of “Safety Net in the Workplace” has disappeared, as do many fantasies. From feeling overworked and burnt out to being underpaid and frustrated, most have begun to look elsewhere for an escape route. Before you do anything rash, think about what you want your ultimate goal(s) to be.
Here are a few things to consider before breaking out of your 9-to-5.
How Much Do You Need?
What should your income, not gross, but the final take home that you enjoy and run your household with, be? How much do you need to keep your family operating? What can you be happy making?
These may seem like simple questions to answer, but they actually need some serious consideration. These answers will allow you to take a serious look at what you need to do to accomplish your financial goals. Through understanding how much you need to make, you will understand how many hours you really need to work.
What Is Your Vision for Your Business?
The vision of many businesses is to experience the evolutionary journey of becoming an Enterprise. The opportunity to be in vast locations and be considered a global success.
This may not be your particular vision, and you may be content with dominating and being seen as a strong contender within your community helping to bring change in the lives of your neighbors and that's awesome too.
It's never easy to decide when it is the best time to leave your 9-to-5, but you never want to go without a game plan if you can help it. Take the time to figure out what your passion is. Sounds hinky (weird) but it's valid!
When you find what helps drive you, makes you enjoy what you do, then it creates the best environment and mindset for you to not only leave your 9-to-5, but be successful at what you choose to fill your time doing.Whatever you strive to do, do it with purpose and excellence.
Whatever you strive to do, do it with purpose and excellence.

Let’s get straight to the point; winter tends to overstay its welcome. With major snowstorms lasting into April earlier this year, Mother Nature definitely took longer than expected to bestow warmer temperatures upon us Canadians.
Living in this wonderful, snowy nation, there are some crucial lessons to learn in order to thrive in the ‘Great White North’. Most importantly, is realizing the importance of making the best of your environment and conditions (especially the long winter months we so often endure).
Our initial instincts are to stay warm and cozy during blizzard-stricken months, huddled indoors with blankets, warm drinks, a crackling fire and taking in an unhealthy amount of Netflix, while silently praying that our neighbour or significant other will shovel the walkway. Winters have such great potential though, why surrender such glorious opportunities to see the remarkable beauty Canada boasts in its backyard?
Exploring the outdoors throughout all four of our Canadian seasons is a revitalizing experience for us, which should be taken advantage of to refresh our frame of mind. It’s a chance to discover new adventures just a snowball’s throw away. We’re all familiar with making the most of warm temperatures during the summer months with patio season and backyard lounging in full swing. The winter landscape can be just as inspiring too, when given the chance.
If you need more convincing, here are a few of Canada’s premiere winter activity destinations:
Fernie, British Columbia
The shops, cafés, restaurants and pubs along 2nd Avenue in Fernie are some of the Canadian Rockies’ hidden gems, with surrounding mountain peaks looming over the glow of its downtown streets.
Located just down the road, Fernie Alpine Resort is home to some of Canada’s most legendary powder, with an average snowfall of 30ft. From epic downhill skiing to leisurely snowshoe and groomed cross-country skiing trails, the resort has activities for the whole family. It also offers plenty of weekly programs to get you outside and even yoga classes to help you find your winter Zen. Their on-mountain accommodations along with a local shuttle to town make for a perfect introduction to Canada’s winter activities.
Kimberley, British Columbia
If you’re looking for a classic mountain town, you’ve found it. The town of Kimberley embodies the Canadian spirit with humble, welcoming locals and a relentless passion for nature. Kimberley is home to craft beers, great local dining, the oldest building in Canada and a variety of activities to enjoy outside.
With stunning scenery of the Kootenay mountains, Kimberley Alpine Resort is just minutes from town and offers great facilities and terrain for people of all skiing and snowboarding ability levels – from first-timers to seasoned slope shredders. Looking to stay on level ground? Try the area’s expansive snowshoe trails, cross-country skiing network or check out fat biking, one of North America’s favourite new activities (mountain bikes with wider tires for better grip in snow conditions).
Golden, British Columbia
One of the most famed locations along the Powder Highway, Kicking Horse Mountain Resort and the town of Golden are conveniently located along the TransCanada Highway and ready to provide you a mountain experience like no other. Drop into Whitetooth Brewing Co. for locally crafted beers, or the Northern Lights Wildlife Wolf Centre for an up-close learning session with these amazing animals.
Delving deeper into nature, Kicking Horse Mountain Resort offers Canada’s highest dining experience, the Eagle’s Eye Restaurant at 7,700ft. Once you’re fueled up, hit the slopes of the Catamount Chair to learn the basics on your skis or snowboard, or bring your little ones to the tube park and natural ice rink at the base of the resort. Advanced skiers head to the top via the gondola for wide ranging bowls, ridges and chutes. If staying grounded is your preference, Golden is primed with world-class snowmobiling, along with plenty of rentals and tours available.
Life’s too short – and winters are too long – to miss out on a lifetime of adventure. Let winter activities revitalize your soul and help you look forward to the inevitable snowfalls each year. Meet Mother Nature halfway on this one and discover how rewarding Canada’s winter climates can truly be.

One of the most frustrating things in the world is taking a few steps forward and losing your WiFi signal. In one spot, you’re completely fine and in the next, no bars. There’s a room in my house that when the door is open, perfectly fine signal. Close that regular old hollow wood door and you get nothing!
To fix this, you have a couple of options. First and most expensive, you can set up a true Mesh network. Our JD Snyder recently took a look at Ubiquiti’s Mesh system and came away impressed. If you don’t want to completely scrap the hardware you currently have, you can pick up a WiFi Repeater or Extender for pretty cheap.
Our friends over at LightInTheBox are running a special right now on a couple of repeaters that we think you should take a look at.
The first repeater is on sale for only $10 right now. It has the option to work either as a wireless repeater or in Wireless AP mode with an Ethernet cable attached to it. It supports 802.11 a/g/b/n and has a two-year warranty. It also comes with both US and EU plugs so it’s ideal to take with you on trips across the pond.
The second repeater is also on sale for about $10 right now and supports speeds up to 300Mbps. It supports Wireless-N and runs on the 2.4 GHz network to get through walls and obstructions easily. It also supports WPA2, WPA and WEP security protocols and has a software wizard for easy setup.

While the gallery is filled mostly with nature photography, I’ve noticed that I’ve been posting a much wider range than that…and can only think it’s to show the range of what’s really available.
Seems to me that every sub-type of photography is different. Landscapes are different from macros are different from candids are different from architecture, etc. And (to me again), no matter the technical skill with (and understanding of) the camera, there’s a learning curve associated with whatever subject (type) you’re shooting. And you have to find your eye.
That said, I wanted to learn to shoot cars. But, recall, I think I shoot portraiture, mostly. So…I see faces in cars. You might, too. And seems that each face has a personality. So in figuring out how to shoot cars – what my eye was, I naturally focused on the face – taking a portrait of the individual again. So here’s a result from my first outing. It’s a beautifully-restored ’56 Chevy Bel Air.
I shot it in June of 2020 in Colorado Springs, Colorado. No idea who the owner is. To get the shot, I was on my back nearly under the front bumper. I used a really wide lens (not quite fisheye, but you get a bit of a bulge in the center) 21mm and I think I caught the essence of the thing.
It’s a 2:3 ratio and is quite striking. As a sidenote, people who buy art at festivals seem to have a thing for triptychs. So I tried cutting this one into thirds and it came out really well. Really three distinct parts – headlights and hood ornament/branding in the middle. I’ve ordered it in three 24×48 panels on 1/4″ ultraboard (foamcore) and that monster (four feet by six feet plus the two gaps) will be on the west wall of the gallery soon.
I decided to try the thin ultraboard for this one because it’s really the best bang-for-the-buck-for-square-foot-of-art medium. And it really does look good. (And I’m a little over budget populating the gallery). I’ll post a pic of the trip when it gets delivered this week. That monster trip will sell for $630. (By comparison, for that price you get a metal print that’s 22 x 33). It’s a matter of budget and taste. Of course, it’s available in any size, in trip or whole. Had a 12×18 that sold within minutes of putting it in my booth ($195) and it’s in a man cave in Colorado now.
A color version is also available, but I prefer the black car in black and white. Email me at firstname.lastname@example.org to purchase or discuss size and medium and pricing options. It’s really a bold piece.

Diageo, maker of Guinness, has announced plans to invest £73m in Guinness at Old Brewer’s Yard, a new microbrewery set to open in London’s Covent Garden in autumn 2023.
The new venue at the historic brewing site will include a microbrewery producing limited-edition beers and offering guests tours, event spaces and a restaurant and open-fire kitchen.
The 50,000 sq ft venue will create up to 150 jobs and will also become the southern UK hub of Diageo’s Learning for Life Bartending and Hospitality Programme, which has so far trained more than 5,500 people across the UK. The ambition is for more than 100 London-based students to graduate from the Guinness at Old Brewer’s Yard programme each year, with a proportion of employment opportunities to be ring-fenced for graduates.
Guinness sales in Great Britain have grown by over 30% in the last six months and one in every 10 pints sold in London is now a Guinness.
Dayalan Nayager, managing director, Diageo Great Britain, said: “We’re excited to create a new home for Guinness in the heart of London. ‘Guinness at Old Brewer’s Yard’ will strengthen London’s hospitality community and be a must-visit destination for thousands of visitors to enjoy.
“Government support over the last two years has been vital for pubs and bars. Coming out of the pandemic, the long-term vitality of the trade will be significantly helped by the alcohol duty review and continued freezes in duty.”
The site will be carbon neutral by 2030 and accessible, with a community programme, details of which will be designed following a consultation period with locals.
The project remains subject to planning permission and consultation period. Old Brewer’s Yard is owned by the Mercers’ Company.
Rob Abernethy, chief executive of the Mercers’ Company, added: “We are delighted to welcome Guinness to our Covent Garden estate. We have worked closely with Diageo to develop proposals which will restore Old Brewer’s Yard’s historic origins in a contemporary context. The significant level of investment is a major boost to London’s recovering economy and will provide a one-of-a-kind immersive experience, shining the spotlight on Covent Garden as a global visitor destination.”

Fusion Media and The Audience Awards join forces to present “Film School Face Off,” the first online competition that generates exposure, distribution deals and cash for student filmmakers
Fusion Media and The Audience Awards are granting fresh exposure for student filmmakers by providing distribution deals, cash to support future filmmaking endeavors and a global audience to screen their work. Filmmakers fresh out of college, still in their collegiate career or those who have graduated within the last five years, are invited to rally fellow student filmmakers to represent their school and compete in the new online competition, Film School Face Off.
The Film School Face Off competition is set up like college basketball’s March Madness. It is a single elimination bracket style competition. To fill a bracket and be eligible to compete, 10 students from each competing school must submit their short films, 20 minutes or less in length of any genre. The first eight schools to submit will have a secured place in the competition. The competition begins Sept. 22, 2015.
The film with the most votes on Oct. 28, 2015 determines the winning school. Winning filmmakers will also be recognized. The first place film with the most audience awarded votes will receive $2,500, second place $1,000 and third place $500. $100 will also be awarded to each 10 students from the winning school for a combined total of $5,000 in prizes. The bracket-style competition builds camaraderie between fellow student filmmakers and provides students an opportunity for their work to be seen by an audience outside of their respective schools.
“The best part about participating in The Audience Awards is that we got the chance to share the stage with phenomenal films and give a wider audience the opportunity to see our work,” said award-winning filmmaker, Amanda Harrymanm.
Film School Face Off begins Sept. 22, 2015, with submissions ending one-week prior. Brackets are reserved at a first come first serve basis, so students are encouraged to organize their film schools quickly in order to secure their spot. More details about the competition can be found at http://theaudienceawards.com/filmschoolfaceoff.
Students from USC, NYU, University of Montana, Montana State University and Colorado Film School have started to submit already. Gather your peers and submit today!
The Audience Awards is film’s marketing platform. We connect filmmakers, businesses and audiences through short film competitions where the audience chooses the winners. Our competitions reach a wide audience and gain global exposure for brands through film.

The map is centered on the tallest building marked for the city, International Agricultural Exposition Center 1 (under-construction). Zoom-in to the map (double-click) and pan-around (click + drag) to see all buildings. Click on a building's marker to open the information page for that building. Only highrise buildings are marked on the map and the collection may not be comprehensive. See below for more information.
Because of the large number of elements contained within a map it is important to use a web browser which can adequately handle the task of displaying the maps. Google Chrome performs the best, Firefox is second, and Microsoft Internet Explorer is third.
Linking to a Map
You can link to a map that you have altered with the map controls, simply use the Map URL found below the map. You can copy the URL to your computer's clipboard by right-clicking the Map URL link and selecting "Copy link address" (Chrome) or "Copy Link Location" (Firefox) or "Copy Shortcut" (IE). When this special URL is used to load a map all of the previous changes to the map, such as map position, zoom level and building selection, will be retained.
The map on this page shows only buildings in the city/administrative region of Harbin. It does not include buildings in neighboring cities or municipalities, or elsewhere in the metropolitan region Harbin is situated in (if one exists).
To clarify this situation take for example Los Angeles. The Los Angeles metropolitan region is comprised of many individual cities, but the map for the city of Los Angeles does not include buildings in Beverley Hills because Beverley Hills is a separate city.
Currently it is not possible to view buildings from all of the cities in a metropolitan region together on one map.
Definition of "Highrise"
Only highrise buildings are marked on the map. For the purpose of this website a highrise is considered to be a building of at least 12 storeys or a multi-floored building at least 35 meters tall. For the sake of convenience highrise buildings are also referred to as skyscrapers (we don't set a minimum height for a skyscraper other than it must be a highrise building).
Construction Status Definitions
Built - Structure currently exists. Construction is complete and structure has potential for use. Structures undergoing renovation remain in this category.
Under-Construction - Structure is currently under-construction. Structural components are being assembled permanently on-site. Excavation doesn't count as construction.
Proposed - Structure is planned to be built and construction hasn't yet begun. Includes both structures which have been approved by local authorities and those which have not (we don't have a distinct 'approved' category).
On-Hold - Construction had begun at one point but has now stopped. This is a sub-category of Under-construction.
Frequently Asked Questions
Some buildings on the map aren't marked. Why is this?
This could be for a number of reasons:
Our editors may not yet have identified and marked every building in the city. Out of a total of 105,013 highrises in our world-wide database which are eligible for inclusion on the highrise maps, only 96,158 of them have had their location data set and actually appear on the maps.
Only highrise buildings are marked (a highrise is a multi-floored building of at least 35 meters in height or at least 12 floors). Some multi-floored buildings which are visible on the satellite photos but aren't marked may not be considered as a highrise. For example, a 10 storey residential building (with a height of below 35 meters) is not considered a highrise and will not be marked on the map. In the image to the right, the lower building, while casting a large shadow, is not marked as a highrise because it has only 10 floors, while the building across the street from it, which has 13 floors, is marked. Also, structures such as Toronto's CN Tower or Seattle's Space Needle, while certainly being quite tall, aren't marked because they aren't considered as highrises. The maps may be expanded in the future to include additional types of structures.
The building may be outside of the city boundary.
The building may simply not exist in the SkyscraperPage database at all.
Some buildings appear to be marked in the wrong location. Why is this?
Tall buildings on the map are marked at the position where they rise from the ground. Sometimes satellite imagery of a city shows buildings from an oblique (angled) view and a building may appear offset from its actual map location.
In the image to the right, the red marker is marking the tower which rises to the right of it, not the tower with the roof the marker is over top of. This paradox is caused by the oblique view of the satellite imagery.

North Cape May - To the spouter from Avalon stating that "ObamaCare" is not "socialized" healthcare, please check your fire. Anything that is forced down the throat of the citizens of a country by their government is just short of communism. The way this program is being handled is a disgrace. The folks that I know in the medical profession want nothing to do with it. As a businessman, I want nothing to do with it. It is a free ride for the freeloaders already on "socialized handouts".

BP oil spill animals affected
Federal wildlife officials reported that 1, 144 ocean turtles, 609 which had been dead, and 109 marine mammals (mostly dolphins, the majority of which had already died) were gathered on or near the coast. Many of these animals were visibly oiled, however may have died of other causes. In the case of sea turtles, researchers genuinely believe that a number of the fatalities might be owing to drowning in shrimp trawls in angry dash that occurred in expectation of fisheries closures as a result of spill. Whatever the cause, the turtles were rendered more in danger of the oil spill effects. Wildlife rescuers collected significantly more than 8, 000 birds; tragically, about 6, 000 among these wild birds had already died if they had been collected. Other people were rehabilitated but might not have ultimately survived the traumatic experience. Many more wild birds were oiled because of the crude polluting coastal marshes.
Many species of seafood, seabirds, marine mammals and water turtles have already been impacted from oil spill. Obtaining the stranded creatures shows only a portion associated with the oil spill’s casualties. It might be years until the real consequences of oil spill on wildlife tend to be grasped. Through the oil spill, about one-third for the Gulf of Mexico’s waters were shut to fishing. Some fisheries remain shut, and concerns stay about meals security.
Within height of this oil spill, Atlantic bluefin tuna, a critically imperiled species whoever numbers have now been decimated by overfishing, had been spawning inside gulf coast of florida. This location — specially the area suffering from the spill — comprises the sole known spawning reasons the western population of Atlantic bluefin tuna. The oil proved poisonous to eggs, which float near the surface, also to younger fish concealing in drifting sargassum seaweed, which might have gathered oil and increased the fish’s exposure. May 24, 2010, the guts petitioned the us government to guard Atlantic bluefin tuna underneath the Endangered Species Act, pointing aside the few person tuna that made it after dark gauntlet of longlines returning to their Gulf spawning reasons had been then threatened by oil and poisonous dispersants. Experts estimate that the oil spill killed a lot more than 20 % of juvenile western Atlantic bluefin tuna this season — and therefore estimation does not look at the anticipated long-term unwanted effects associated with oil spill within the tuna’s reproduction habitat.
Jeopardized sperm whales were spotted moving through giant slick. Blue, fin and sei whales in addition swim through these oceans. As air-breathing mammals, whales taking a trip through the area had no option but to surface amid the oily sheen for air. Breathing toxic fumes can damage mucous membranes and airways. In extreme situations, it could also trigger demise. Furthermore, specialists predicted that plankton that baleen whales like blue whales and fin whales count on would endure significant declines from the air pollution.
Another species in the base of the system, the menhaden, might also feel the impacts of the spill. Along with encouraging a fishery harvesting on average one or more billion weight per year, the menhaden is a vital meals source for sharks, tuna, swordfish and marine animals. It’s a particular specialty of fish-eating wild birds like herons, gannets, gulls, osprey and brown pelicans. As with a number of other species, the oil spill hit during the middle associated with menhaden’s spawning season.
The sea-grass beds south regarding the Chandeleur Islands and elsewhere across the coast provide food, protection and nursery websites for a multitude of marine life, including many fish and shark types. Sea-grass beds provide crucial habitat for West Indian manatees that nibble on the sea lawn and boost their particular young within these superficial, peaceful waters. Oil can smother sea grass, robbing these mild giants of their meals resource. Additionally, oil can get into manatees’ eyes and physical hairs on the noses once they surface to breathe, causing irritation and disease that impair the pets’ ability to breed and give.
Kemp’s ridley sea turtles forage and nest along the Louisiana coastline. Breton Sound plus the Chandeleur Islands, the very first coastal places to-be struck with BP’s oil, tend to be specially crucial places for this species. Ironically, the turtle’s success in crawling toward recovery may have place it at an increased risk due to enhanced amounts of juveniles coming to nearshore oceans during the spill to forage on blue crabs, many of which were contaminated by poisonous oil. Adult females also passed through the area on their way to nesting beaches along the coasts of Texas and Mexico during the height of the spill.
Oil make a difference sea turtles in many different techniques. Ingestion of oil through contaminated food and absorption through direct physical contact can cause damage to the turtle’s intestinal tract as well as other organs. Oil may also cause irritation of mucous membranes when you look at the eyes, nose, and throat, that could trigger infection. Eggs laid in oil-contaminated sand — or by an oil-contaminated mom — cannot develop properly, while newly hatched turtles may become oiled while crossing a contaminated beach. Hopes continue to be that attempts to move sea turtle eggs were successful, and that the turtles will survive their migrations and come back to nest one day.
Another species whose success story was turned on its head may be the brown pelican. Delisted during 2009, the brown pelican was one of the most prominent sufferers of oiling, reduced habitat and loss of food supply.
COASTAL WETLANDS AND BEACHES
Oil coating seaside marshes as well as other wetlands contaminated sediments, poisoned wildlife and smothered salt-marsh grasses as well as other wetland plant life. The loss of plant life in wetlands could cause considerable erosion and habitat reduction. Sandy coastline habitat additionally experienced significant oil contamination. Oil still persists into the marshes with little being done to replace these painful and sensitive habitats.

Control charts are used for monitoring the outputs of a particular process, making them important for process improvement and system optimization. Although these statistical tools have widespread applications in service and manufacturing environments, they do come with some disadvantages.
Control charts are designed to measure variation in processes, including common cause variation and special cause variation. Common cause variation is considered normal, random variation within a process, while special cause variation is due to broken machinery or some other process defect. A control chart sometimes may indicate that a process is out of control and that there is special cause variation where none exists. These false alarms can cause unnecessary downtime and delays, which can cost a business money.
There are two main assumptions underlying control charts, which dictate the accuracy of the information provided to users. The first is that the measurement function monitoring a process parameter has a normal distribution. In reality, though, this may not be the case, meaning a control chart will fail to produce meaningful data. The second assumption is that measurements are independent of each other, which also may not be true. If both assumptions are in some way flawed, then control charts will fail to be useful.
Although control charts are not difficult to understand mathematically, they do require special training to create and use. Control charts use basic statistics, such as mean and standard deviations. Small organizations with limited training resources and limited experience with quality-assurance techniques will likely have difficulty implementing and using control charts. Businesses have to decide whether or not they can train their employees on lean and Six Sigma tools before using these quality tools to help improve their processes.
Misplaced Control Limits
Upper and lower control limits are added to control charts to help determine when a process is out of control. Control limits may be set too close or too far away from the process mean, distorting the information produced by control charts. If control limits are set too far away, then operators may be unaware that special cause variation is affecting the quality of process outputs. Similarly, limits that are too close to the mean may set off false alarms when a process is still in control.

We’ve all been there before…overwhelmed from a long day at the office, with even more work to do when we get home, and there’s nothing at home to be prepared to eat. Sure, it would make sense to stop at the grocery store and pick up some simple ingredients to make a quick, nutritious meal. But, that’s not what ends up happening. We’re stressed and we’re hungry! Logical thought goes out the window. We head for the nearest fast food drive-thru and gorge ourselves. Stress eating happens to the best of us…we use food to solve problems that it can’t solve. How do we avoid these situations from happening?
- Develop an awareness of triggers – pay attention to the who, what, where, when, why, and how of the situation and identify what may be causing it.
- Develop an “action” list of things you can do before stress eating occurs, and that also align with your goals. Keep it simple, keep it visible, and track how often you use the list. These actions could include:
- Take 5 deep breaths
- Drink a big glass of water
- Play with a pet for a few minutes
- Listen a song
- Self compassion. Don’t judge yourself.
The goal with these tips is not to be perfect. None of us are. However, it is important to investigate these situations and attempt to regain a certain level of control. By focusing inward, in a non-judgmental manner, we can begin to decrease the frequency and intensity of stress eating and allow us to continue on the path to progress towards our goals.

Art was a way for me and my daughter to learn more about our people, our culture, our traditions, and our land. As a show of respect, I try to incorporate our language into the name yuyyyyy artwork.
From humble beginnings at our dining room table, to now having my art in so many people’s homes and hearts, I sometimes have to pinch myself. I feel a great sense of pride and gratitude for being able to do what I do and for the support I’ve received from both Indigenous and Non-Indigenous communities.
How did you get into drawing/painting?
My mother’s father used to be a signwriter but would love to draw and read books on wildlife. I
used to spend hours with him drawing and these memories are ones I hold close.
As mentioned, I only started painting Indigenous Art about 18 months ago. Initially it was to connect my daughter to her culture and heritage, little did I realise at that time sharing this moment with her was going to change my life!
After suffering a workplace injury a few years prior, I have had some dark moments. My art became very therapeutic and that’s why I use bright and vibrant colours to promote hope and positivity.
I mainly use acrylic paint on cotton duck canvas, each piece can have thousands of dots taking many hours to complete.
How would you describe your work?
Capturing special moments, connecting and interpreting them into art is sometimes very tricky but I love this part of my work. When I’m doing commissioned artwork, I like to find out the essence behind why they wanted the piece and what it means to them.
When I create pieces for my collections it is from a place of gratitude, so I like to use colours that reflect our culture but also like to add pops of colour.
Can you tell us a bit about your mob, your culture and the country you live on?
I was born and raised on my grandmother Stella’s country. She grew up in the Murillimbah &
Tweed region. This is why I often paint a representation of Wollumbin, Mt Warning.
The Bundjalung/ Yugambeh language people are the traditional custodians of the land located in
south-east Queensland and north-east New South Wales, our ancestors all spoke one or more
dialects of the Yugambeh Language.
My great grandfather was one of the first Aboriginals to play in the Tweed All Blacks. My grandfather Merv was from Central Queensland, Darumbal Country.
My father has told me stories about how my grandfather worked on the Railroad and how as
children they were constantly terrified that they may be taken away as they were a part of the
stolen generation era.
Your daughter sounds like your biggest inspiration, can you tell us more about why she inspires you?
I want to be the best role model I can, I want to teach her that there will always be challenges but it’s how you learn and move forward is what matters most.
My daughter is part of the next generation of indigenous leaders, she is already stepping up into this role at school. She is strong, resilient and compassionate. She inspires me to learn
