Organisers of the first Olympics in South America have been urged to speed up and the International Olympic Committee has asked for better cooperation between the government and the Games organisers to crank up the speed of preparations.
"I have to share with you a lot of concerns as a member of the coordination commission for Rio 2016," Francesco Ricci Bitti, who heads the association of summer Olympic international federations (ASOIF), told its members at a conference in Belek, Turkey.
"We are satisfied with our relations with the (Rio 2016 Olympics) organising committee but the support of the government is late and not sufficient.
"The cash flow is not positive and the support is late and not coming. They have many words but not money and words are not enough."
Rio 2016 organisers have fallen behind schedule on many projects and workers at the Olympic Park began a strike over pay on Monday.
Construction workers blocked one of Rio's main thoroughfares on Tuesday morning and warned the protests would continue.
"The delivery date is starting to be endangered…we are going to stop work for an indefinite period and the consortium will go to court," Carlos Antonio Figueiredo Souza, the president of the construction workers union Sintraconst-Rio, told Reuters.
The warning came a day after shots were fired when workers scuffled with security guards at the site.
The second Olympic park at Deodoro, which will house eight sports is also well behind its initial construction dates, fanning further concerns among federations.
The Olympic golf course is also facing problems with the IOC repeatedly saying the Brazilians, also facing delays for this year's soccer World Cup, did not have a day to lose.
"They are delaying, delaying, delaying," Ricci Bitti, an IOC member and head of the international tennis federation, said. "This is a concern of the Olympic movement and we have to take action."
The IOC said it was setting up individual task forces to monitor specific progress more closely.
"I still think we can pull this thing together and we can have great Games," Rio 2016 executive sports director Agberto Guimaraes told delegates at the same meeting. "I still believe we can do it. Please help me get through this alive and well."

National Geographic Front Cover for the Blessed Virgin Mary
How refreshing it is, then, to see our Heavenly Queen, full of grace, grace such a widely read magazine.
The article, which features Marian Shrines new and old, recognised and unrecognised, is entitled 'How the Virgin Mary Became the World's Most Powerful Woman' and it can be read here.
'Thou art beautiful above the sons of men: grace is poured abroad in thy lips; therefore hath God blessed thee for ever.'
Let's pray that more magazines more and more look to Mary as the full expression of womanhood and the true model of beauty and strength, 'for charm is deceptive and beauty is vain but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.'
Warning: The National Geographic article features Medjugore and a bare breasted African lady nursing a baby.

How to Recreate Jennifer Aniston's Oscar Makeup

Jennifer Aniston always looks beautiful during her time on the cameras. Whilst on our screens during the Oscar Awards, everyone seemed to notice her stunning makeup.
1Conceal any blemishes. Jennifer likes to know that her skin is clear and rid of any spots, just like anyone else. To get the finished look before you have even started, grab your concealer and dab (or smear) over places where foundation or spot treatment will not cure.
- This is an optional step; however, it gives you confidence to go through the whole day without foundation wearing off and being worried that the spot is visible. If you need this look to last all day, take a bag and keep a small concealer handy.
2Add foundation. Foundation is also very handy to keep your skin clear or even just to add a bit of colour. Foundation is not the time to add colour to your face; this is a bit later on. Right now, focus on getting a shade lighter than your skin tone to get that natural look that Jennifer has.
- Never get a shade later, because many foundations develop or look darker in different shades; you don't want to look like a stick of butter.
3Keep eyeshadow light. As Jennifer is a natural pretty woman, she doesn't need bright and colourful eyeshadow so you won't need to apply a thick layer of it either. To get the eyeshadow to last, it is advised that you buy a eye primer to keep the shadow on the lid and it also prevents fall out. Now, for the shadow, take an eyeshadow brush, which is one of those puffy soft pads, and pat a beige colour on your lid and get as much coverage as you want. Then, take a champagne colour and spread it over your crease and outer corner giving the feline effect but do not make it too visible, as this is not what Jennifer has done.
- For any mistakes, take a cotton bud and use eye make up remover gel to squirt on the pad and go round the outline of the shadow and cover any mistakes.
4Take a decent eyelash curler and curl your eyelashes. Tilt your eyelash curler on an angle so that it makes your eyelashes direct outwards.
5Apply mascara. Get a thick brushed mascara with clump free label on it and brush it outwards; do lots of strokes as this makes a wispy effect.
6Perfect your eyebrows. Use an eyebrow pencil/eyebrow kit with eye shadow to outline your eyebrows to give that soft look to your eyebrows. If you are looking to look like Jennifer Aniston, then have a closer look at her eyebrows and follow the shape of them; maybe the colour if your eyebrows aren't too dark. Use an angled brush to do this.
7Clear fallout with cotton bud again. Fill in your eye shadow again and eye brows to prevent having gaps or lighter spaces in the eye area.
8Finish up your eyes. Buy a wispy pair of eyelashes and glue them on to the closest part of your lash line and add a thin layer of eye liner to make your eyes pop! Make sure you leave the glue to get tacky before you apply, press down on your eyelashes in place for 10-15 seconds. This will make sure that the lashes are applied properly. When you open your eye look all around 5 times and then wiggle your eye lashes with tweezers to make sure they are to your standard. Once you are happy, move on.
9Move onto bronzer. Now is the time to add colour to your face - as much colour as you want as long as you don't look like a pumpkin. To get the even look, contour in the cheeks and in the temple area and then using the excess of the bronzer on the forehead and down the nose. You could even contour your nose using an angled brush again making your nose look thinner than it is. Contour using a powder brush.
10Add powder. Use a translucent colour that will just set the makeup, making it last longer. Then, put the powder and powder brush into your bag, along with the concealer.
11Add a light pink natural colour to your lips, making sure it's gloss. If you are feeling adventurous, try a lip gloss that plumps your lips like the soap and glory mother pucker. Also, add the lip gloss to your bag so you can top up on that.

Castello di Volognano and its attractive village lie in the Chianti hills just 15 kms from Florence, in a very panoramic position with a 360 degree view of the olive groves and vineyards that are part of the extensive property. In the past the castle has hosted such distinguished people as Giacchino Rossini, Giosuè Carducci and Enrico Fermi.
It has undergone a detailed restoration and offers a wonderful atmosphere of times gone by, and is furnished with antique pieces perfectly in harmony with the style of the castello. The outside areas, which are very well looked after, include an italianate garden and a swimming-pool which has the unique feature of being build partly inside the old lemon-house and partly outside.
The property is very well equipped and has washing-machine, dishwasher, broadband internet connection, satellite-TV, telephone. Next to the castle is a small village which is partly inhabited, and the large wine-cellars where they produce the wines from the farm and extra-virgin olive oil.

The mountain rises out of the lake and looms ever larger as the boat makes its final approach. There is a sense of anticipation in the air. What will we be doing today? Will we make it to the top? How will my team perform?
Two friendly guides meet us off the boat. It doesn't take long for them to give us simple instructions and hand over our challenge pack. In it is a map, some questions and the written rules of the game.
Then half of us are blindfolded and our team mates take turns directing us where to place our puzzle pieces. It takes us 5 min 42 secs to complete the first challenge and we're off to station #2. As we run we read the instructions. We're to make a human pyramid. Points are awarded for the fewest points of contact with the ground. We're 18 people and manage to create a structure with only 5 legs touching the ground.
We find a shortcut to the next station and are making good time. It takes us 6 min 5 secs to untangle our human chain and we set off for the geometry challenge. I may not have been particularly helpful for the previous two challenges but mathematics has always fascinated me.
High fives from the team as we get the answer in record time and it's time for a dash for the finish. We're panting hard but smiling. Can't wait to hear the rankings. But more than anything I'm looking forward to a delicious lunch and a glass of wine. The kids are going to love hearing about today.

Pop: Rein priming for mag cover?
What with the likes of Michelle Obama and Carla Bruni-Sarkozy – who are both successful in their own right, slim, beautiful and impeccably groomed – setting the standard for First Ladies on the international political stage, and the press analysing your every outfit choice, Rein would have reason to feel the weight of great expectation.
But what does it say about society when we start celebrating the weight loss triumphs of prominent women above their other achievements? When we're keener to know the secrets to their dietary success than their business feats?
The Herald Sun writes: "Therese Rein yesterday shed her beloved oversized jackets to reveal the stunning effects of a recent diet. The noticeably trimmer Ms Rein emerged from St John's Church in Canberra in tight-fitting dark pants, boots and a close-fitting black jacket. While the Herald Sun can confirm Ms Rein has shed many kilos she has refused to divulge the secret of her dietary success."
Back in April, The Daily Telegraph wrote of Rein: "Faced with the daunting task of having to stand next to the "supermodel" of the pack, US First Lady Michelle Obama, at the G20 Summit, Rein went on a weight-loss campaign in recent months and dropped a rumoured 15kg since visiting London a year ago. While the media has been obsessed with her wardrobe, Rein has looked confident in more fitted and flattering outfits in recent days and looks to have finally tamed those unruly curls."
Finally! I mean, how embarrassing to represent your country with unruly curls wearing unflattering outfits. You may have an honours degree in Psychology, oversee a charity devoted to helping small business, the long-term unemployed and disabled, and run a multi-billion dollar business, but, really, it's all about how you look. By the same token, you might be the world's talk-show queen or a brilliant comedian, but we are not prepared to celebrate you until you shed a few surplus kilos. What a truly excellent and inspiring message to be sending young women.
Yours truly,
Girl With a Satchel

This is a brilliant take on First Ladies and the wives of Prime Ministers, and how society is more interested in their looks and fashion sense than their personalities and achievements. Using Oprah and Magda as examples illustrates how this thinking applies also to celebrities and business women. You've really hit the nail on the head, and there would definitely be room to expand this into a full-blown feature article. I could definitely see it in Cosmo, like your most recent article on Disney child stars.

And, meanwhile, on the male side of the media spectrum, the Herald Sun reports on Kevin Rudd's daily prayer ritual.
Presumably, Therese has a faith, too. Will we hear about that, I wonder?

Weekend Severe Possibilities (2/9-10)
Entry posted by OKpowdah ·

The big consensus among model guidance at this point is that a piece of energy from the trough over the Northwest Pacific will jump to the Gulf of Alaska by Wednesday morning, then drop southeastward into California Thursday night into Friday.
Similar to the last event, there is a weak disturbance in the southern stream that gets ejected out ahead of the trough dropping into the Southwest ... and able to lift northeastward as the polar vortex over southeast Canada retreats poleward. So the result is some moisture return ahead of the disturbance Wednesday and Thursday ... maybe some rain too, but let's not get carried away.
The real differences between the GFS and CMC and ECMWF is with the handling of the individual impulses within the western trough. CMC and ECMWF like swinging the lead impulse into eastern Colorado Saturday afternoon. Amplitude, tilt, and timing of this particular piece of energy will be crucial. At this point, the projected evolution brings a warm front through Oklahoma on Saturday with round 1 of thunderstorm potential, and a surface low developing in eastern CO.
The ECMWF and CMC deepen this surface low into western Kansas Saturday night ... really pretty awesome placement for OK. Euro increases CAPE substantially Saturday night. The cold front catches the dryline sometime Saturday night into Sunday morning for round 2 ... so timing is an issue, but verbatim this would no doubt be a significant overnight event.
The trough continues eastward with that primary upper level impulse sharpening over the southern Plains, and the surface low intensifying across the central Plains to Midwest, introducing severe threats for Sunday and Monday for the Dixie Alley area.

My Life In Lyrics (2012)
Sometimes I feel as if song lyrics are grossly underrated. It boggles my mind how few people pay attention to lyrics. They'll never know any words to any song…even the world's most famous and recognizable songs… like Happy Birthday???? Now, I'm not one for poetry…hate it as a matter of fact… but when those words are set to music, it takes on a whole new life. It's incredible how you can have a page full of words and it would be next to impossible for a human to memorize them… but introduce a beat and a melody, and you can memorize those words almost immediately.
Song lyrics have been incredibly important to me, I feel like my life story can be told through songs I deem as my favorites. I also tend to gravitate to certain songs and lyrics depending on which mood I'm in, or to illustrate something that is occurring in my life. I almost pity people who don't have this relationship with song lyrics because you're missing an outlet… a friend you can go to no matter what trials and tribulations you may be encountering. Not to mention, you are missing one of the biggest points the artist is trying to make with their music.
Here are some examples from my extensive love affair with music:
Pearl Jam- Black– "All the love gone bad turned my world to black…Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be…. " Even though I never really had any "love gone bad" while I was in high school, this song and its lyrics made a profound impact on me. It even inspired my (gulp) Pearl Jam stick figure tattoo I got when I was 16. It really came full circle when, in May, Eddie Vedder asked me curiously, why did I get my tattoo. All I said was "Black" and he knew exactly what I was talking about… he then smiled proudly and gave me a huge hug. Quite the moment.
Alanis Morissette- Head Over Feet- "You've already won me over in spite of me, don't be alarmed if I fall Head Over Feet…" This was a big song for my friends and me. It works perfectly for any situation where you fall for a guy you were resistant to… whether because they were the "bad boy" or too much of a "nice guy" (never happens). This song helped justify "giving in." Haha.
Elton John- I Want Love- I've always loved this slightly more obscure newer tune…and not just because Robert Downey Jr. was in the video. But after a breakup and you're feeling really shitty, these lyrics make you feel tough and hopeful. "So bring it on, I've been bruised. Don't give me love, that's clean and smooth. I'm ready for the roughest stuff. No sweet romance… I've had enough."
Fiona Apple- Criminal- "I've been a bad bad girl…I've been careless with a delicate man…" Ladies, need I say more?
Laura Pausini- Come Se Non Fosse Stato Mai Amore- For some reason Italian pop music can make me happy no matter what mood I'm in… strange I know. She's my favorite Italian artist and her lyrics are intense. – Here are some helpful words… "E cancellare... tutte le pagine con la tua imagine, E vivere... COME SE NON FOSSE STATO MAI AMORE" You can't expect me to translate too, can you??
Martina McBride- Wrong Baby Wrong- We all know country music is known for it's descriptive and true to life stories. This song is no exception and is a go-to I play for girlfriends who just went through a break-up…ahh such a good friend ;) "Wrong baby wrong baby wrong, it ain't the end of the world, don't you worry pretty girl…Now that he's gone baby gone baby gone, you got nothing to lose…count the minutes if you want to, it won't be long baby long baby long till you find somebody new."
Zac Brown Band- Jolene- Even though this was written by Ray LaMontagne, Zac brings a spine chilling pain to the song. The song actually hurts when you listen to it, yet it's absolutely beautiful "I found myself face down in the ditch, booze in my hair, blood on my lips…A picture of you holdin' a picture of me, in the pocket of my blue jeans."
Avril Lavigne- Hot- People may think Avril is a manufactured teeny bopper… untrue. I have followed her career from the beginning, and before Taylor Swift and the likes, Avril was the artist girls listened to to hear their own lives put to music. She's an incredibly talented musician and writes all her own lyrics. I picked "Hot" because even though I love her darker notes and tones the most, this is a feel good song and usually what I put on when I'm getting ready to go out at night…basically when I wanna feel like a sexy bitch… "You make me so hot, make me wanna drop, you're so ridiculous, I can barely stop…" Pretty profound, eh?
I can clearly go on and on forever (clearly)…but my point is; if you are a person who has never really made song lyrics a big part of your life… I emplore you to open your heart and ears, have a bit of patience, and try to hear what the artist is trying to convey. It's a shame to miss out on this dynamic and pure relationship with music. What are some of YOUR favorite lyrics???

text: Before and after photos of a 16 year old, 5'6 and 200 lbs patient from Brooklyn, New York City, NY was had developed an extreme form of Gynecomastia at the age of 10. This is a condition in which the male breasts become enlarged due to the formation of mammary tissue beneath the male breasts resulting in an enlargement. Although he desired to be able to lead a healthy lifestyle by participating in sports or gym activities, his embarrassment over the appearance of his chest caused him to refrain from doing so. This caused to not only weight issue but also becoming socially withdrawn. Concerned for his well-being, both physically and mentally, his parents brought him to Dr. Blau for a comprehensive, 90 minute consultation. After discussing the situation with Dr. Blau, they knew they surgery was the best option for their son. Male breast reduction surgery was performed in which the mammary tissue was excised followed by liposuction. As can be seen in the post-op photos, there is much improvement of the entire chest area. The patient and his parents are extremely happy with the results and the young man looks forward to a new opportunity in life without being held back by his condition. Dr. Blau is hailed word-wide as the leading authority world-wide in Gynecomastia surgery and is also a well-accomplished author on the subject.

Tim O'Neill, Goldman Sachs' partner and global cohead of the investment management division, has a warning: If passive investing gets too big, then the market won't work.
"So in terms of the size, a market needs both active and passive investing because if everybody's a passive investor, there's no one to buy from," O'Neill said on a new "Exchanges at Goldman Sachs" podcast with communications chief Jake Siewert. "And if passive becomes a certain oversized percentage of the market, the market doesn't function."
O'Neill is getting to the heart of the debate on active vs. passive investing. Passive investing has boomed in recent years, with index-tracking exchange-traded funds sucking up trillions in assets under management.
The problem is that the market needs active management, otherwise there will be no one to buy from, and individual stocks will just move with the overall index.
As a result, O'Neill, who previously called passive investing "a potential bubble machine," said that both strategies are necessary.
Here's an excerpt:
Well, the promise of active investing is that they're going to deliver performance net of fees better than the benchmark, whatever the benchmark might be for the US, global, or Europe. It's been a difficult seven years for active investors because the markets have risen so consistently and persistently higher. So most active managers have net of fees underperformed the benchmark. So it led back to this debate about whether or not the fees that you pay for active managers are worth it. And there's been simultaneously a great shift towards passive investing because it's cheap, and you would get all of the market returns, net of five or 10 basis points.
The problem for passive is that its size, at a certain point, may be too much for the market to handle. And it's also all on autopilot. So in terms of the size, a market needs both active and passive investing because if everybody's a passive investor, there's no one to buy from. So there's no one ... your beta is my alpha and vice versa. So you need a balance in the market. And if passive becomes a certain oversized percentage of the market, the market doesn't function.
The other problem with passive, of course, it's all on autopilot. And when you get to periods of misvaluation, over or undervaluation, you need active decision-makers. Because valuation always matters in markets, and investing.
O'Neill's division is primarily in the business of active investing. This month, Goldman Sachs Asset Management launched its first exchange-traded fund, the ActiveBeta US Large Cap Equity ETF (GSLC).

Current Temperature
A household item that someone no longer needs may be someone else's treasure. In the spirit of removing unwanted clutter from one's home that may be right at home in someone else's household, the Environment Lethbridge-hosted Reuse Rendezvous is once again taking place Sept. 9-11.
"For Environment Lethbridge it's our second (year hosting the event), " said Kathleen Sheppard, executive director for Environment Lethbridge of Reuse Rendezvous, which has been taking place in the city since 2011.
"Everybody who has some extra stuff can put it out in front of their house Sept. 9 and leave it out for the weekend and throughout the weekend people can come by and pick up whatever they would like that might be a treasure for them."
Those wishing to participate in Reuse Rendezvous can get a free lawn sign at the Helen Schuler Nature Centre or the Environment Lethbridge office at 319 6 St. S. Participating households are also encouraged to register their items on an online map hosted by Environment Lethbridge.
"For anyone who is interested, go to our website, (www.environment
lethbridge.ca/reuse), and sign up," said Sheppard. "That way we can put your address onto the map. Everybody can log onto the map and see where the different locations are. You can also come to the office or to to the Helen Schuler Nature a pick up a lawn sign which has the Reuse Rendezvous logo on it."
It's recommended the home owner displays a sign indicating there are free items to pick up.
"But just put them out on your front lawn and leave them there for the weekend," said Sheppard.
The Reuse Rendezvous benefits the house cleaner and the house decorator alike.
"A lot of us want to go out and find things, whether it's practical things like students looking to furnish their apartment at the beginning of the school year or for people who like to go out and look for treasures and things like that," said Sheppard. "Last year we had about 165 households participate. This year people are still registering and signing up. But there is lots of interest for sure. One fellow had a barbecue and lawn mower to lots of people with various household things. Some people have TVs or some furniture — desks, shelves and all of those kinds of things. I think you can also anticipate some small household items like toys and kids' clothes."
In a new developement this year, Environment Lethbridge has teamed up with Efutures Renewable, which has agreed to pick up electronics on Sunday evening from any household who requests pickup when they register their location for Reuse Rendezvous.
Among the items eligible for pickup include computers, printers and televisions along with household electronics such as small kitchen appliances and fans.
"We've worked with Efutures Renewables on a number of projects," said Sheppard. "They're a fairly new company and they're looking at establishing themselves in Lethbridge. They approached us to say they'd love to be a part of this and they think they could help out by picking up the electronics after after the event is over. So they're really excited to be involved and we think it's a great addition to the event."
The other big winner of Reuse Rendezvous is the landfill, which avoids unnecessary waste.
"By reusing things, you're keeping things out of the landfill," said Sheppard. "We always think of recycling as the most important thing, but really the reduce, reuse, recycle parts are the most important. You're not buying new stuff that comes with new packaging and throwing the old stuff away. So there's a real benefit there to helping the landfill."
With this year's Reuse Rendezvous just days aways, those interested can still get involved.
"There's lots of time, we'll take people registering their locations right up to until Sept. 8," said Sheppard. "We'll keep the map up to date on the website, so people who are eager to go and check things out can pull that up and there will be locations added on an ongoing basis."
The event is over as of Sept. 11 at 7 p.m. Anything remaining after that time must be taken back in by the owner. The city will not be collecting the items.
Those wanting further information can also visit Environment Lethbridge's Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/
As Environment Lethbridge gets ready for another year of the Reuse Rendezvous, the goal is to keep it going.
"It's certainly our intention to repeat it and if we can work with some other companies like Efutures Renewables I think there's potential there as well," said Sheppard.
Established in 2013, Environment Lethbridge helps people to create widespread community action and engagement towards sustainability and are always looking to involve the community in the work it does. Community members and anyone who wishes to volunteer can contact Environment Lethbridge through their website at http://www.environmentlethbridge.ca.

how to tell if you're doing your life's work - julien smith
…when you're on auto-pilot, no problem. you've done it before, so you recognize every pattern you're in and there's no need to worry.
but this also means you're going the wrong way. you're getting no new input, so you're not recognizing any new patterns. if this is the way your life is going, you are actually becoming more useless. in an increasingly chaotic world, the best pattern recognizers win.
in order to get anywhere in life, you need to be uncomfortable constantly. you need to have new input and absorb new information or you're not growing. if you don't want to grow, it's because things are fine as they are. you should be conscious and ok with the fact that they won't change. | thanks to @jennymack

Regency Norfolk Terriers
Mike and I enjoy bringing people into our home to meet their new family member and to let them experience more than one Norfolk Terrier. We hope that they will stay in touch for the life of their dog, and we are there for training issues, health concerns, or just to send a Christmas Card to let us know that our extended family is doing well. After more than 20 years of breeding and placing puppies and dogs in carefully selected homes, we are now experiencing people returning for their new Norfolk when their other Norfolk has passed over the rainbow bridge. We have shared many a laugh and experienced much joy with our owners and friends. Likewise, we have shed tears and sorrow at the loss of a beloved pet or concern over an illness or accident. Any owner can return any of our Norfolk to us at any time. No questions asked. If they can't afford to pay to ship them back, we will step up to the plate and bring them home and make the arrangements. Fortunately, we have only had to do this three times in 20 years. Things worked out great for those Norfolk, their old owners, and their new owners when we were able to rehome them. We only rehome a Norfolk when they have been to our vet, any medical issues dealt with, and any social problems corrected.

The Critical Theory Archive holds the scholarly archives of major figures who have worked in the fields included under the loosely defined rubric of "critical theory." The existence of the Archive recognizes the key role that scholars at UC Irvine have played in the development of the field since the 1970s and the significance of Critical Theory in UCI's academic programs. Major figures whose manuscripts are held include Jacques Derrida, Wolfgang Iser, Paul de Man, Stanley Fish, Richard Rorty, J. Hillis Miller, Etienne Balibar, and Murray Krieger. The library and papers of critic René Wellek also are in the Archive.
We are seeking the archives of prominent critical theorists, especially those who have achieved international recognition in their field. We also collect monographs authored by those critical theorists whose papers we hold.
We seek to collect materials documenting the history and impact of critical theory at UC Irvine, including the papers of scholars who have taught or lectured on campus such as Wellek lecturers. Special strengths have included the papers of scholars recognized for work in literary theory, aesthetics, reader-response criticism, deconstructionism, postmodernism, and pragmatism. In addition to these, we week to expand the scope of collecting to reflect critical theory's impact on the genesis and expansion of postcolonial studies, feminist theory, gender and sexuality studies, ethnic studies, critical race studies, ecocritical theory, and others.

Summer is a great time for family vacation—the sun is shining, the kids are out of school, and you've made plans to leave the house for a fun and relaxing family getaway. Unfortunately, the summer months are also the most popular times for burglars to break into your home. If you're planning on taking a family vacation this summer, there are a few things that you should do in order to increase your home security and allow for a peaceful and worry-free getaway.
Entrust a friend with taking care of your home
If your house appears uninhabited, it is more likely to become a target for robbery. In order to make sure that your house remains secure, it is important to designate a friend to visit your home and property regularly. By also having them pick up your mail and bring trash cans in and out, you can project the appearance of inhabitation on your empty home and dissuade burglars from making your home a target.
Refrain from announcing your whereabouts on social media
The social media of today has its perks, allowing you to stay in touch with distant friends via posts on platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat, but it also finds its downfall with the ease in which it allows strangers to find and access vital information pertinent to you. Be careful about what you put on social media so that you can decrease your chances of a burglar discovering that you're away from home.
Set timers
By setting different timers for lights, radios and TVs in your home, you'll be creating the illusion of occupation and thus decreasing the chances of having your home broken into. Additionally, having a home automation system that will allow you to manually control the appearance and security of your home from afar can make your home's inhabited appearance even more convincing.
Lock up
Don't forget to put any valuables such as jewelry, money, or important documents away in a well-hidden and durable safe, just in case a burglar does manage to find his way into your home. Because most burglaries typically happen in less than ten minutes, not only is finding the safe unlikely but so is the probability that the burglar will have enough time or strength to drag such a heavy object from your home.
Notify your security company
When you're planning on being gone for longer than a weekend, it's always a good idea to alert your home security company of your absence. This way, they can be on the lookout for potential home invasions and are ready to contact the authorities immediately at an instant's notice.
Vacation is a time of stress-free relaxation with your family. Don't let your family's happiness and peace of mind be disturbed by coming home to a burglarized house. Amongst these other preparations for leaving your home unattended, having a reliable and safe home security system in place can be the greatest deterrent against burglars, as burglars tend to avoid homes with security systems. You can find out more about how to protect your home during summer vacation by contacting us at J&J Security Services.

Habits are ingrained into our neural pathways making them very difficult to break. I have a few habits that I would like to change, so I'm going to make a list of ways to do this. Good habits can be learned to replace bad ones.At work I like to do things the same way each time as much as I can. This way when something happens and I'm under pressure I can go on 'auto pilot' so to speak. This lessens the stress and allows me to handle difficult situations easier. Habits are a cue, routine and a reward.

Learn to Forget
Our brain needs us to forget to stay healthy. Odd to think of forgetting instead of remembering! Our brains are built to to retain valuable input and to discard useless information, without this ability we would develop serious mental conditions.
Setting Goals, Trick your mind
Instead of stating goals in years research has found by breaking down the time to days makes it easier to do. Or if you break it down to months, weeks, or minutes.
Take exercise for example. If you state I'll do 5 minutes of exercise each day, it seems easier and doable. Then because you've done your 5 minutes and it didn't seem long at all you may find yourself feeling like doing more! Just because you set an easy and reasonable expectation down.
You might surprise yourself by accomplishing more easier. And we all like easy! Studies show that by looking at time in smaller units help us achieve our goals. Long term goals seem closer and appear to be more urgent.
By accomplishing our goals we improve our sense of self. We improve our lives and make things easier. I like to make things simple. Sometimes it's the little things that make the biggest difference.
What things have you accomplished? Or what do you need to?

Danger Mouse & Jack White - "The World"
It might seem to you that producer extraordinaire Danger Mouse and Italian composer Daniele Luppi'sRome project also consists of Jack White in its entirety, but unfortunately this is the last from the record that will feature White's signature vocals.
After hearing "Two Against One" and lovely ballad "The Rose With The Broken Night," we now have access to the final White assisted track from the Spaghetti Western inspired project, a pensive, dreamy number called "The World."
Like the others, White's vocals sound lovely over a backdrop not customary to his usual musical leanings, whether White Stripes, Raconteurs or Dead Weather. Check out "The World" below; Rome is out May 17th via Capitol.

Major new international motoring event
Culzean Autoclassica set for Ayrshire
A MAJOR new annual international motoring event will soon be making its home in Ayrshire.
Starting in 2008, the Culzean Autoclassica will be hosted at Culzean Castle.
Picture shows the Autospirit team organising the Culzean Autoclassica, left to right: Robin Donovan, Tony Flint, Les Hannah, Norman Geddes and Mike Schafer with Norman's Maserati.
Organised by Auto Spirit in partnership with the National Trust for Scotland, the Culzean Autoclassica will be an exclusive event aimed at all marques of auto transport, with particular emphasis towards top or significant marques.
Owners of historic, vintage, classic, racing, sports and touring cars and bikes, prestigious sports performance cars will be amongst those invited to participate. Clubs representing any of these categories will be especially welcome. Invitations will also be extended to vintage commercial and tractor vehicle owners.
To capture the castle's unique ambience and its magnificent location, the event will adopt a traditional theme. Participants will be invited to enter into the Autoclassica spirit by arriving in period costume, reflecting their particular era of transport.
A wide variety of activities will interest of all those attending, including a concours d'elegance, an auction of classics and auto memorabilia, special marque displays, club enclosures, trade village, action events, a gala dinner and hog roast barbecues.
A planned feature of the Autoclassica will be a nostalgic return of motor sport to the old Turnberry airfield track, albeit with demonstration runs and possibly a sprint. The track was the scene of major races in the early 50s when famous drivers like Mike Hawthorn, Stirling Moss, Ken Wharton, Reg Parnell and Ninian Sanderson drove the legendary V16 BRMs, Thinwall Special, Connaught and ERA GP cars.
The Autoclassica will be designed to encourage participation from both manufacturers and dealers, including those organizations associated with the motor vehicle and it's lifestyle. Friday will be designated primarily as a corporate day, manufactures dealers and sponsors will be able to privately entertain clients both at Culzean and the Westin Turnberry Golf Resort with facilities such as test-driving available.
Auto Spirit and the National Trust for Scotland have teamed up with the nearby five-star Westin Turnberry Hotel, and on the Friday will host an annual Autoclassica Golf Tournament played over one of the hotel's world-class golf courses. Hotel accommodation packages as well as executive accommodation at Culzean Castle will also be available.
The exact dates for the first Culzean Autoclassica have yet to be finalised, but will be sometime in August or September 2008.
Meanwhile, the organisers are planning to launch the Culzean Autoclassica over the weekend of 21, 22, and 23 September this year, in order to give potential sponsors, participating organisations, clubs and owners the opportunity to evaluate the many fantastic opportunities and pleasures the first event itself will generate in 2008.
The organisers are particularly keen to involve local Ayrshire businesses and would be delighted to discuss how best they can participate in the event and achieve maximum brand awareness. Specifically designed corporate packages linked with trade stands and corporate enclosures will permit the opportunity to meet and develop relationships with existing and new clients in a five star environment. Sponsorship opportunities offer an association with an event commanding international recognition and synonymous with auto heritage, the marques represented and the magnificence of the venue.
Special invitations are being extended to interested parties inviting them to come along to Culzean Castle and Turnberry for an enjoyable weekend of fun and to find out all about the Culzean Autoclassica. The launch will feature some of the activities intended to become part of the first Autoclassica programme in 2008.
To gain maximum exposure for the launch the public is invited to attend on the Sunday.

The Autospirit Team
Autospirit is a new company formed bringing together a specialist management team who have been involved in the marketing and the presentation of car events for over twenty years. They include well-known names from event management, motor clubs and motor racing.
The principals of the business have a passion for all things automotive combined with a commercial awareness derived from many years in business in their own right.
Tony Flint, a retired local businessman with a lifelong passionate involvement in motorsport, high performance sports and classic cars and representing manufacturers and clubs, founded Autospirit. Tony has many successful years organizing international Porsche events at venues such as Princess Diana's home Althorp House. Amongst his many other interests he had been planning a major event down in England when he was approached through mutual friend Norman Geddes, senior partner at Ayr-based Frazer Coogans Solicitors, and by Mike Schafer, the National Trust for Scotland's Culzean Castle manager. Mike, an avid Porsche enthusiast asked him if he would consider organizing a motoring event at Culzean Castle Country Park.
Excited by the huge potential The Culzean Autoclassica would have, the name that was to become adopted for the event, Tony had no hesitation in enlisting the help of long time friend and fellow Marcos owner and car enthusiast Les Hannah. Les has a successful record as a major event organizer and was production director of the locally held International Guitar Festival. The company Autospirit was registered with Les as a director, and in partnership with Mike Schafer of the National Trust for Scotland they began planning an event destined to be different than anything ever hosted in Scotland.
Tony and Les recognised Culzean Castle was a five-star venue, however immediately noted it was not the only Ayrshire venue with similar status in the locality. The Westin Turnberry Hotel with its famous Turnberry golf courses on the doorstep could provide five-star international hotel accommodation and facilities for their high profile event. The added bonus was that the Westin Turnberry owns what remains of the old Turnberry Race Track, completing the dream scenario Tony and Les had planned for the Culzean Autoclassica, to celebrate Turnberry as being the only Scottish track to host a race in which a formula one team had competed.
The Westin Turnberry Hotel reacted favourably to becoming involved with the Culzean Autoclassica and the exciting prospect of those GP cars appearing again at the old Turnberry racetrack will become an integral part of the event.
Early additions to the event team include Maserati owner and enthusiast Norman Geddes. Norman will provide an all important link with local Ayrshire businesses. Others in the team include Robin Donovan, fourteen times Le Mans driver and corporate event and sponsorship expert and Fred Hampton, ex chairman of Porsche Club Great Britain and a recognized classic and sports car display guru.
Tony has approached other friends and associates from the world of motor racing and journalism and early indications are we can expect one or two very well known and respected names joining Team Autoclassica.

Tepeyac Hill Project
We have gotten a lot of questions about the Tepeyac Hill project, so this is an effort to answer the common ones...
Why Are We Building the Teocalli?
The short answer is: Because we think that God is asking us to do so.
For a long time we have wanted to have an outdoor space for special Masses or events that will allow us to accommodate larger crowds, such as on Divine Mercy Sunday. We believe that God is indicating to us that the time to do so is now.
What do Tepeyac and Teocalli mean?
Tepeyac is the name of the hill upon which Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared to St. Juan Diego. She asked St. Juan Diego to build a Teocalli (house of God) on the original Tepeyac, saying:
I ardently desire that here they build me my sacred little house, a 'teocalli' – where I will reveal Him, where I will exalt Him and make Him manifest – where I will offer Him to all the people with my love, my compassionate gaze, and my help and protection.
- Nican Mopohua
We felt Teocalli was the name given for our little sanctuary, and Tepeyac for the hill it is on.
Are we building an entire church?
The Teocalli is designed to be an outdoor Sanctuary, or that part of the church with the Altar. It is not meant to be an entire chapel.
Why is it on top of the hill, isn't that inconvenient?
It is not the location we would have chosen, but we felt the Lord indicated that spot.
It might sound strange, but in February of 2017 we felt as if the Lord was asking us to look for 3 white flowers on Tepeyac Hill and that these flowers would indicate the place where a little sanctuary should be built...
The flowers we found were so tiny that we thought they couldn't be the flowers He was talking about, but there were no other flowers to be found on the hill. Later we felt as if the Lord confirmed that this was the spot He wanted. Things at the Mission usually move very slowly, but almost immediately, before we even said "go," this project began to move.
We haven't selected the location for any other buildings on our property this way. :)
Are we building anything else over there?
God willing we will build 2 additional buildings: a sacristy and a special pavilion to accommodate those who are ill, physically handicapped or elderly.
Will it be uncomfortable?
Perhaps. It will certainly be very rustic. But we believe that God will reward our sacrifices.
The Tepeyac Hill Project is an act of faith.

Poll: Rick Perry leads Republican race
AUSTIN — Texas Gov. Rick Perry emerged as the Republican front-runner for president in a major national poll Wednesday as he prepared to embark on a multi-city fundraising tour in his home state next week.
Perry was favored by 29 percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents in the latest Gallup poll, compared with 17 percent for former Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts. U.S. Rep. Ron Paul of Lake Jackson was third with 13 percent, and Rep. Michelle Bachmann of Minnesota came in fourth with 10 percent.
Perry, the longest-serving governor in Texas history, entered the race for the Republican nomination on Aug. 13 and immediately went on a weeklong campaign trip through Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina before returning to Texas to shift into fundraising mode.
Before becoming a candidate, Perry and his campaign team reached out to major donors across the country to make sure that he could go the distance in a campaign that will easily cost in excess of $100 million. Next week, he will headline $2,500-a-person events in six Texas cities.
In Fort Worth, Perry will appear at noon Tuesday at the downtown City Club. Wealthy philanthropists Lee and Ramona Bass and John and Anne Marion are hosts for the event, which is expected to draw an impressive array of the city's Republican elite.
"There will be a lot of people there to see the governor," said former Texas Secretary of State Roger Williams, a congressional candidate and one of several co-hosts. "It's important that we raise the money, but it's [also] important that we show the support for him and let him get his message out."
Perry will also venture into Oklahoma and New Orleans, according to The Dallas Morning News.
"I think he's on track to raise as much money as possible," said Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott, who is part of a network of so-called bundlers who are using their contacts and fundraising skills to help raise large numbers of individual contributions that can't exceed $2,500 per person. Abbott said his goal was to raise $100,000 to $250,000.
In his three election campaigns for governor, Perry raised a total of $102 million under a state campaign finance system that permits unlimited individual contributions. The dynamics are different in the presidential race because of the federal limits on per-person contributions, making the use of bundlers a common practice.
Houston oilman George Strake, a former chairman of the Texas Republican Party, said Perry's home-state fundraising efforts began intensifying in recent weeks with e-mail appeals for help raising money.
"I know they're pretty well-organized," said Strake, who said he promised to try to raise $25,000 and would shoot for $50,000.
A Houston fundraiser is scheduled for Wednesday at the Hilton Americas. Couples who raise $50,000 have been designated as sponsors, Strake said. Couples who raise $25,000 are hosts.
Abbott said he volunteered to help "as soon as I learned" that Perry was considering a run for president.
"I told a lot of folks I wanted to help out any way I can," Abbott said. He said he has "started making phone calls and sending out e-mails" to raise money on Perry's behalf.
The Gallup poll, which was conducted Aug. 17 through Sunday, suggested that Perry gained momentum through his first week of campaigning. A number of polls just before his entry into the race placed him in the upper tier of candidates, although Romney had generally been perceived as the front-runner. Bachmann has also ranked among the top contenders after winning a Republican straw poll in Iowa.
"Perry's official entry has shaken up the Republican race, making him the new leader for the party's nomination," Gallup officials reported. "Gallup also finds Perry generating strong positive intensity among Republicans familiar with him, suggesting he has a strong initial base with potential to grow, given his below-average recognition."
But the poll also noted that Perry, like Romney before him, "rates as a weaker front-runner than those in prior GOP nomination contests" and said Perry will be challenged to "avoid the same fates" as late-entering candidates who ultimately fizzled, such as Republican Fred Thompson in 2008 and Democrat Wesley Clark in 2004.
Perry runs well among older Republicans and Southerners and has "above average" support among religious Republicans. Conservatives "strongly favor" Perry over Romney, but liberals and moderate Republicans support them about equally, the poll said.

What I'm Reading...
This blog is designed to share what I am reading. As I finish reading chapter books that are appropriate for elementary students, I will write about them here. Maybe something I read will spark your interest!
Convergence by Stan Lee, Stuart Moore and Andie Tong (Lexile: 600; Interest Level: Grades 4-9) is first book of the Zodiac Legacy Series. Stan Lee, for those who don't know, is the father of Marvel Comics.
Steven is visiting Hong Kong with his class. While on a museum tour, he hears a strange scream and sneaks off to investigate. What he finds is a secret stairway leading to an ancient chamber full of strange, glowing pools and something he will find out later are called ley lines. Steven witnesses a man on a hovercraft going from pool to pool seeming to gather energy of some kind. And, he sees their odd museum guide sneaking around the edge of the room. Little did he know that he was about to get sucked into the world of super powers, with both heroes and villains--and he would have to choose which side he was on!
A power source tied into the Chinese Zodiac is unleashed and seeks hosts throughout the world who must choose to use their new power for good or evil (although it is sometimes hard to tell which side is which), but above all, they must first learn to control it so that it does not control them. Fans of the great Superheroes, and we almost all have a favorite) will be sucked into this book, which is a fast read, despite the length. (512 p.)

Choosing hospice care is a very personal decision that involves the patient, the patient's family and specialized professionals who can provide informed counseling and guidance. Most patients rely on the Medicare hospice benefit to pay for care. For that reason, Medicare eligibility guidelines are often followed to determine if hospice care is an appropriate choice for a patient and his or her family. To qualify for the Medicare hospice benefit, two criteria must be met:
The Medicare hospice care benefit does not "cut off" at the end of the initial six-month period. Benefits continue as long as the hospice physician continues to certify a six-month life expectancy and the patient wishes to remain with hospice care.
If a patient's terminal condition improves, he or she can be discharged from hospice and return to curative treatment, or resume daily life without any medical intervention. If need be, patients can later return to hospice care.
Hospice care can also be paid for privately or through insurance plans.
Although hospice care assumes that comfort rather than curative care is desired, hospice care focuses on quality of life and can bring meaning and fulfillment during the final stage of life, as well as comfort. For this reason, it is helpful to start hospice early in the progression of a terminal illness. Hospice care is a good treatment for a number of conditions. The Hebrew SeniorLife Hospice Team is particularly equipped to serve older adult patients who may be experiencing illnesses such as:

This is a question that most small business owners struggle with every 1-2 years. After all, a website redesign project is a big commitment, not only in dollars but also in time. Small business owners know that their website is an integral part of their business and reputation. An outdated website conveys many things to customers and prospects, usually none of them good.
Website technology and design move at breakneck speeds, so how do you know if it is time to upgrade your website?
Here are a few red flags that will signal you it's time to start your website redesign project.
1. Your website isn't mobile-friendly or mobile responsive
More and more people are using mobile devices to access the internet. Over half of searches are now done on mobile devices and Google will penalize your website's ranking on mobile searches if it isn't mobile friendly. More importantly, a mobile unfriendly website frustrates users who can't read or navigate your site.
Mobile-responsive website resize and shuffle your content so it is easily viewed on any sized device. To learn more about how this works read my blog on mobile-responsive web design.
2. Your website doesn't use a content management system or CMS.
Your business changes: employees come and go, products and services adapt to your customers' needs, you change your business address. Many of these minor or major changes need to be reflected on your website. Content Management Systems, like WordPress or Drupal, make it easy to change most of the content on your website. There's no need to understand or write code in order to make content edits or add new content.
3. Your website doesn't show up on search engines.
Sure, when you search for your company name on Google, it is the first result. (If not you really need a new website.) But how do you rank on the other 10 billion searches performed on Google each day. You want to have search ranking on the relevant keyword phrases for your business.
This, of course, doesn't come easily. It takes a well-designed and researched strategy: Who are your customers? What keywords or phrases are they searching for? What's missing from your current site? Good search engine rankings result from strong web development, well-planned strategy, on-going optimization and updated content (think blogs).
4. You don't know if your website is working for you.
Many CEOs think their website is nothing more than digital brochure. Without strong Calls-to-Action, forms and measurement tools built into the website, that is what it is just a video brochure. Tracking tools like Google Analytics measure the traffic on your website, which pages they visits, how long they stay. Other tools help you convert visitors to leads and ultimately customers, and track those interactions along the way.
5. Your content isn't relevant anymore or is all over the place.
"Nothing is constant but change." In order to be successful, your business must evolve. These changes in your business may reflect on your website in two different ways.
One is that it isn't shown on your website at all - You can't edit it yourself and you haven't contacted the web developer you haven't spoken to in years to make changes. Your business has moved forward but your website hasn't.
The second is that your site has grown without a plan. You just keep adding pages and pages until you've achieved site sprawl. Without a clear site map and easy navigation, visitors will become quickly confused and leave your site.
