In response to the story that Keiran Tierney had decided to pursue his ambitions elsewhere, Celtic Quick News, who also have a decent source or two, responded with a tweet…
What places Richie? I've a v good source, No bids, no agreement, tacit or otherwise. A campaign to unsettle is underway. Celtic attempting to put a lid on it, making public comments wd do the opposite.
After popping it through google translate, it appears that there is nothing in the story after all.
Yet there is still nothing official, and no denial from anyone at the club. Player, manager or CEO.
The logic behind that fuelling any story escapes me.
Since the Celtic support is the primary concern of the club, then its their peace of mind that matters, and a public denial would put our minds at rest. The edginess will continue until that happens.
After all, there isn't a single one of us who believes most of what appears in the media, and had this story come only from the media, it would have been dismissed out of hand.
However, it didn't come from there, and there is no cheque from Level 5 winging its way south to Stoke on Trent.
To clarify, the story so far, if you like..
A few people who have told me stuff before, that turned out to be right have, more or less , told me that something happened over in austria. From the timing of what I heard, my guess is it happened either during or just after the Sparta Prague game. Thats a guess, mind.
If CQN are saying different, then that too, must be taken into consideration, and perhaps its the first shot from the club to dismiss this story . Indeed, one would hope so.
But for my part, there's too much coming from too many places for there to be nothing in it, and until I hear anything else, I'm sticking with what I heard.
That will make me the phariah should Tierney move on, as though it was me that sold him. but i can live with that.
This is a diary, not a news outlet, and its remit is to record what I hear, what I think about it, and to encourage others to offer their opinions.
The problem appears to be that some don't want to hear bad news, and its little wonder that down the ages the job of messenger was only slightly less dangerous than that of food taster.
Then again, I'm not the only one who has to be careful with wording, for example, as even the slightest misprint can change the meaning of a story..
Rangers chairman Dave King faces contempt proceedings from Takeover Panel
The feud between Dave King and the Takeover Panel has escalated, with a decision of its hearings committee indicating that contempt proceedings have been raised against Rangers' chairman.
In December, the Court of Session ordered King to make an offer to Rangers shareholders of 20p a share.
King failed in an appeal against that decision and also failed to persuade the Takeover Panel to allow him more time to make the offer.
Now, as the panel announced it was refusing to convene its hearings committee to review that last decision, it appears King could face more serious issues.
Within the statement published today, the Panel says: "The executive went on to refer to an email of the previous day in which it had stated its intention to initiate contempt proceedings were Mr King to fail to procure the publication of an offer in accordance with the code within the time stipulated.
"It stated that, in the circumstances, it would initiate contempt proceedings in the Court of Session on 27 April 2018 if, by midnight on 26 April 2018, Mr King had failed to publish a code compliant offer.
"In the event, process in the contempt proceedings appears to have been served on Mr King in South Africa on 8 June 2018."
King had stated previously that the delay was a result of the Takeover Panel requiring funds of around £11m to be held in a UK account rather than South Africa, where he is resident.
But the Takeover Panel suggests there was a lack of clarity over his attempts to move the funds.
"On 11 April 2018 the (Takeover Panel) Executive had suggested to Mr King that he instruct Investec to open a UK sterling account on Laird's behalf with a view to Investec providing the necessary cash confirmation," the statement adds.
Laird is a company owned by a trust of which King and his family are the beneficiaries.
The statement continues: "As regards Mr King's offer to instruct Investec if his request for an extension were granted, the Executive pointed out that in a telephone conversation of 11 April 2018 he had undertaken to start the process of engaging Investec on that same day, but no evidence had been forthcoming that Investec had been instructed to seek the necessary exchange control approvals and give the requisite cash confirmation."
It adds that the apparent serving of contempt of court proceedings "seems to have prompted Mr King's request of 11 June 2018 to have the Committee convened for a review of the Executive's refusal to agree an extension of time.
"In the meantime, Mr King had produced no evidence to show that he had instructed Investec to seek the necessary exchange control consents or to confirm its willingness to receive the consideration monies into a UK account with a view to giving the requisite cash confirmation.
"It is noteworthy that, in his submissions of 18 June 2018 Mr King does not maintain that he has now instructed Investec to do this."

Find out more ? From BBC Scotland ?
From that subdued piece, stained with the tears of the author, it looks like the patience of the panel has finally ran out.
He'll be working on the chain gang soon enough, it appears.
full details are here, in the court document…
Garry Parker, Neil Lennon's assistant over at Hibernian, confirmed Celtic have made a bid for John McGinn, but denied that was the reason he wasn't playing in their match against Berwick Rangers
"Celtic have submitted a bid as we all know but John is our player at the moment. I don't know what price we would be looking for. You would need to ask the board.
"Tongues will always be wagging but John was just being rested, like Marv (Bartley) and Flo (Kamberi). We wanted to give a few of the young boys a run out and they did very well."
And he definitely isn't going to Lennoxtown later today , either.
Celtic have until 11pm tonight to get everyone registered for the Alashkert game next week, though i hope we don;t go down that path.
There is talk that Harry Wilson, a Liverpool winger, may join the club on loan, which would be a bit of a kick in the teeth to Lewis Morgan and Mikey Johnston, who both performed well in austria, and that talk intensified when it was discovered the Welshman once tweeted "Come On, Celtic " before an Old firm game.
When he was fourteen. It was the one where Joe Ledley scored the winner.
Sometimes some people look for the most tenuous of links…
Like this story, which is supposed to put our minds at rest over Tierney..
Everton are close to sign Rennes Defender Ramy Bensebaini, Everton are nearing to complete a £13.3M move for the left sided 23 year old (Source – Daily Star)
A left back ?
Er, no. A centre back.
Fulham are the latest club to notice that Dedryck Boyata can actually play a bit, and the Cottagers may be about to enter the race for his signature.
Don't know why anyone would race to get a signature. when I was a lad I used to wait outside the ground with a pen.
Hang on… there's an idea.
Someone pop over to Lennoxtown, get their lad to ask Keiran Tierney to sign an autograph which is really a folded up ten year contract with "no backsies" written into the small print.
Piece of piss this management lark.
As Stevie Gerrard , no doubt, will prove in the coming months as he takes up the reins-they don't do buses-at Ibrox.
And they have finally found out what their new colours will be for the season, after they found some cash down the sofa to put down a deposit..
Thats some of their players modelling it, but frankly I've no idea who they are, though you'd think the one with eight fingers and a couple of stubs would have been more recognisable.
Capitalising on a market dumber than most, they've gone not only for the orange strip, a guaranteed seller, though perhaps a bit too late for the marching season, and one with a sash.
It speaks for itself, really.
I bet he stays up all Christmas Eve waiting for Santa as well.
Supporters are a crazy bunch…
We just need love and attention, like anyone else.
So, that statement…..go on…you know it makes sense.
Caption competition, and we go back to Tuesday…
Caption….Katie Hopkins shows how she like the oul "halal" meat.

I've finally admitted I need a proper break (well my body has kind of forced it upon me to be truly honest), so I'm taking a month away from the blog to both work and rest – I have a ton of photos to take, articles to be written for future months, life stuff to make decisions about …. oh and hopefully some sleep to catch up on!
Tired, puffy eyes have been a thing of the norm lately… but the pretty pattern of my fave new top hopefully distracts from that ha!
Top info here or click any of my pics.
So life gets a bit blurry at times.
I've been running on caffeine for months.
At the same time, I've also got really itchy feet too – so hopefully I'll be dreaming about some of the amazing places I've been putting on my travel 'bucket' list.
So I need to take some time out to rest and recharge.
Have some quiet and cosy times at home…
… and I'll be back here in the Autumn with a sexy new blog design, tons of new season fashion – and discussing the 'power' of clothes – and I've planned some gorgeous interiors stuff too.
Until then, here's where I'm dreaming of escaping to and why!
Bali – not the beaches where the main package holidays are but right up in the north where all the art is-I've actually wanted to go here since I was 18 and I always said it would be the location for my dream honeymoon but that didn't happen either …. soon Bali….soon! 😉
Australia – I've actually been there before and it was one of those places I didn't think would wow me but I fell in love! It's such a big place, you just can't see it all without spending months there so I would love to go back.
Japan – I didn't ever think this would be one of those places I would particularly fancy going to but I just find the culture fascinating, I think ever since I read the book Memoirs of a Geisha I've had a romantic notion of wandering the streets of Kyoto looking at the tea houses.
Galapagos Islands – ANIMALS! That's it. Pretty much everywhere I want to travel is related to wildlife in one way or another.
Costa Rica – I've seen this on television so much and I with love volcanic islands, so to me this place looks a bit like Hawaii which I absolutely loved, but with proper jungle…. and monkeys.
Central Africa – an absolute dream would be to visit the mountain ranges between Uganda, Rwanda and Congo to see the Mountain Gorillas (which this year it was announced have finally risen to a population of over 1000 because of the conservation efforts). I'm lucky to have seen wild orangutans in the jungle and it was so moving, I can't imagine what it would be like to see a family of these guys.
I'm sure there are a ton of other places I should mention as well, for instance I haven't actually travelled around Europe very much, but for the moment those are my top places I'm itching to see…
Where would be on your dream travel list?
Enjoy the rest of your Summer and see you soon!

A re-release? From a 2015 original arrival date? What gives? Actually, I have very little idea, but given that this is the first chance I've had to listen to the album, it's all good for me as it goes. Actually, it appears that the album was first recorded in 2014, in the none-more-doom location of erm…Sutton Coldfield, and produced by none other than Esoteric's Greg Chandler.
Well, for whatever reason that the original has been re-released, with an additional three bonus tracks that add extra keyboards here, I'm glad that Minotauro records have seen fit do so. My Silent Wake have been in the doomy annals since 2005 it would appear, although I must confess that this is the first time that they've crossed my path. That may have to be rectified, because the gloomy chaps, hailing from North Somerset – not your typical haven of misery and despair, unless you've ever ventured into a Wetherspoon's down there – play a particularly tasty brand of doom/death. Long-time readers of this wonderful publication will know that I have a particular predilection for doom/death, having sampled about 762927 eastern European bands who have played My Dying Bride Lite tracks with extra stabs of the Casio Rhumba-fill-in button. I'm even happier to report that while what My Silent Wake play is most assuredly doom/death in nature, it has an atmosphere and style all of its own that doesn't seek to simply ape what has come before it.
The album has a host of different textures and themes, though it is fair to say that the overwhelming atmosphere of despair permeates through the whole platter like black mould on a bedsit wall. Huge, thick, crushing riffs that proceed with all the speed of a heavily sedated snail reverberate around the speakers, with each apparent bounce off the walls adding extra layers of sadness. This isn't an album you're going to be listening to in order to psych yourself for a mad night out on the town; on the contrary, this is the kind of work that you place on the stereo gram in order to contemplate where everything has gone wrong with your life. If all that sounds almost impossibly depressing, well, that's because it is. A mainline to sonic misery injected to your soul via the medium of your ears.
Musically, this has everything the morbid listener could possibly want. Some great, traditional thick guitar and bass sounds, with some really inventive and spiky guitar (check out the dissonant sprawl of "Black Oil" for more details), with vocals that alternate between huge, ferocious roars and Stainthorpe-esque crooning. In terms of the drumming, well, they certainly do the trick. It's hard to be a show boat as a tub thumper with a slow band, but when the tempo does start to break out, they're excellently done. Production is really great too, with the clarity of a fist heading towards your face, and the hefty punch of having a heavyweight behind it. The three bonus version of the tracks with added keys actually do add a little to the songs, which were pretty good in the first place, and I assume this is where their more modern sound currently sits. I haven't listened to their newest album, released this year, Invitation to Perfection yet, but on this evidence, I should think it's pretty good.
A good, solid release that should rightly see the album get more air play, and hopefully more exposure in the UK scene.

Every moment I've spent with you has been nothing short of exceptional. You are such a kind, thoughtful, and oh so handsome husband. Happy birthday to the love of my life.
There is nothing better in life than having a husband as outstanding as you. Thank you for always bringing a smile to my face and laughter to my lips. May your birthday be filled with endless bliss.
Happy birthday to my husband who always makes me feel confident and strong. Thank you for always believing in me. May you feel as cherished on your birthday as I do by you.
Husband, I hope you never change in life, because you are absolutely perfect the way you are. I am so grateful I married a man as wonderful as you. Wishing you lots of wonder and love for your birthday.
Even though we have gotten older, I am still discovering new reasons to love you. You are a loving father and an incredible husband. I hope your birthday is filled with many moments of love and joy.
There is no doubt that you are the best husband in the world. Do I doubt your directional abilities, cooking, or laundry skills? Yes, but never your love. Happy birthday to my darling husband!
Life is an incredible journey, and there is no one I'd rather have by my side during it than you. Every moment we've had together is as irreplaceable as you are. Happy birthday husband!
You have given me so much love and comfort over the years, and I am eternally grateful. I'm so glad I get to spend the rest of my days returning the favor. Happy birthday, hubby!
Not only are you always on my mind, but you will forever be in my heart. A husband as loving as you is hard to find, and I plan on spending the rest of my days being grateful I found you.
Husband, you are like a box of crayons, you bring color into my life. When I met you I had no idea how vibrant my world would become. Here's to a lifetime of always coloring outside the lines together.
The sun may be the center of the universe, but you are the center of my whole world. Happy birthday to the man who brought meaning and joy into my life. May your birthday be filled with every wonder that you could wish for this year.
"Thank you" would never be enough to express my gratitude for all the love you've given me. You are an extraordinary husband, and I intend to envelop you in love and devotion for your birthday.
When I was little, all I wanted was for a prince to come and save me. Now that I am older I am so pleased that I married a king. This year for your birthday I have decided to let you rule the castle. Or at least let you believe that you do! Happy birthday husband!
I know that people say that nobody's perfect, but I really want to dispute that sort of thinking. Clearly, people must not have met you because you are an absolutely perfect husband.
happy birthday message for husband
Thanks for always dealing with my crazy and still managing to love me unconditionally. It must be hard to be my husband, but you make it look so effortless. Happy birthday to my other (and occasionally better half)!
You have given me endless moments of joy and happiness over the years. You are more than my husband; you are my best friend. I hope your birthday is just as fantastic as you are.
romantic good night messages for girlfriend
Your kisses may be sweeter than candy, but it's your love that genuinely sweetens my soul. No amount of cake could ever be as sweet as you! Happy birthday to my sweetie pie!
Thank you for being everything I could ever need in a husband: lover, provider, and friend. You are my everything, and I hope your birthday is just as phenomenal as you are.
I hope you know that I think of you countless times during my day. Even when we are apart, you are always in my thoughts and in my heart. Happy birthday to my truly spectacular husband!
Being your wife still feels like a dream to me. It feels like just yesterday we were getting married. After all these years I still love being with you, and I look forward to many more years together to come.
I'm so lucky that I have such an amazing and incredible husband in my life. You are nothing short of perfection, dearest. May your birthday be filled with warmth and laughter.
Husband, I want you to know that I love you with all my heart. Nothing could have prepared me for the incredible life we have been blessed with so far. You have made every step of our journey together a wonderful experience.

Emergency Telecommunications Services
During times of emergency, crisis or war, State of Arizona personnel with critical missions need to know that their calls will go through. Two separate programs, the Government Emergency Telecommunications Service (GETS) and Wireless Priority Service (WPS), address this need.
What is GETS?
GETS, a federal program by the National Communications System (NCS), provides priority handling of phone calls placed over the public phone system. GETS utilizes a universal access phone number and PIN to identify the caller and works like a calling card. The card is used ONLY during emergencies when calls cannot be completed by normal calling methods due to network congestion.
When used during an emergency, there may be a cost associated for this service ($.075 to $.10 per minute) which would bill directly to each agency. However, GETS has a limited amount of federal funds to support the program and has never billed for emergency use to date.
What is WPS?
WPS, another NCS sponsored program, increases the ability to make calls when cellular networks are congested. WPS service is activated by entering a special code before dialing a number. Specific carriers offer WPS: AT&T, Edge Wireless, SouthernLINC, Sprint/Nextel, T- Mobile, Alltel, Cellular South, SprintPCS, and Verizon Wireless. WPS service is billed directly to the user's cell phone by the carrier for the WPS service and costs are not to exceed:
- Activation fee:
- Monthly rate:
$4.50 (applies each month whether WPS is used or not)
- Per minute usage:
$.75/minute when activated
List of critical functions and the agency(s) where the function resides: Agency Critical Business Functions
Who should have a GETS calling card and/or WPS capability?
Not every agency will need GETS "calling cards" and WPS. GETS and WPS are to be used by agencies with critical business functions. If your agency has a critical business function, you will need to identify who on your staff should be a GETS and/or WPS user. Typical GETS and WPS users are responsible for the command and control functions critical to management of and response to state/national security and emergency situations, particularly during the first 24 to 72 hours following an event.
Each GETS and WPS user must be a person with a bona fide role supporting a government-sponsored security or emergency preparedness/response mission. GETS cards are to be used by individuals who "run towards danger" and by people responsible for continuity of government and infrastructure, etc. The following categories serve as guidelines for determining who may qualify as a potential user.
Types of user function: Guidelines to Establish GETS & WPS Users
National Security Leadership – Pertains to military and federal government.
National Security Posture and US Population Attack Warning - Pertains to military and federal government.
Public Health, Safety, and Maintenance of Law and Order - This user performs functions necessary for giving civil alert to the US population by maintaining law and order and the health and safety of the US population in times of national, regional or serious local emergency.
Public Welfare and Maintenance of National Economic Posture - This user performs functions necessary for maintaining the public welfare and national economic posture during any national or regional emergency.
Disaster Recovery - This user performs functions of managing a variety of recovery operations after the initial response has been accomplished.
If your agency has critical business functions, please think of the critical services your agency provides in emergency situations and of potential GETS and WPS users, such as, Director, Deputy Director, Emergency Service Coordinators, and critical telecommunications and infrastructure personnel, etc. It is recommended that staff responsible for all critical functions in your agency have GETS cards – leaders in the department and those making key decisions during an emergency. It is also recommended that a portion of those staff with GETS cards have WPS access as well.
As you determine your agency's needs for GETS cards and WPS access, you must take into account the following responsibilities attached to these services:
- Does your agency need a GETS card and/or WPS access?
- If yes, each agency must establish a Point of Contact (POC)
- The POC would:
- Determine who should receive a GETS card and WPS service;
- Coordinate the ordering of service and distribution of cards;
- Validate monthly call detail records;
- Validate all accounts yearly;
- Respond to agency questions regarding the two programs.
- Send the name, email address and phone number of each agency's POC and, if applicable, alternate to Trudi Dela Cruz at [email protected].
Establishing POC and Ordering GETS & WPS
Each agency must establish a POC before GETS user cards or WPS service can be ordered.
- A POC is required to have a GETS card. It is recommended, but not required, that an alternate POC also be established.
To establish your agency POC: Instructions for Establishing POC and Ordering GETS Cards & WPS
When a GETS card is received or WPS service is activated, the user should verify the functionality of the card or service. Instructions for testing will be provided with the card and email. Your agency POC will also need to coordinate periodic testing with users to ensure continued functionality. There is no charge for testing GETS cards; however, usage charges from the wireless provider occur when testing WPS.
If you have questions about GETS, WPS or POC, please contact Jennifer Sand, Customer Relations Program Manager, at 602-364-1106 or [email protected].

Style: American Farmhouse Ale brewed with White Sage
From: Gypsy Brewer
Brewer's Note: "Over the ages the term 'cellar door' has numerously been referred to as the most beautiful term in the English language. Upon setting out to create the first summer addition to the Stateside line up of ales; the feeling that almost instantly came to me was that of beauty & cleansing. Many summer offerings tend to lack the complexity of their bigger, colder season counterparts; so my goal was to craft an ale of extreme balance with a delicate complexity that allows for contemplation while also providing quaffable refreshment. Starting with a base of German wheat & pale malts this crisp slightly hazy foundation was then accented with a blend of Sterling & Citra hops providing an intricate blend of herbal grass & tangerine citrus flavors and aroma. To pull this all together and to complete the 'cleansing' aspect of my vision I gently finished the ale off with a touch of white sage, lending a mild earthy spice character to the blend. Of course let's not forget our house saison yeast that brought all the elements together leaving a dry yet intricate finish"
The beer's label is gorgeous, with wood grains like an old cellar door, and a nice crack in-between the two o's in door with graphic smoke swirling out of it. The label as a whole is rustic, haunted, and fancy, which is a wonderful thing for a label to say. The dark blue of the label is a beautiful touch, and the box the beer comes in is equally beautiful. The fonts on the bottom of the label explaining the style, etc… are a little boring and mundane compared with the rest of the label, but they are small and on the bottom, so they cause only a little bit of clutter. This label is worthy of labeling or for the shelf.
The beer pours a golden orange color, like a deep, dark piss. The beer forms a light head of pale white bubbles that quickly fizzle away to a thin, almost-non-existent scrim on the sides of the glass. In body, the beer is clean but murky, with just faint suggestions light and shapes coming through from the other side of the glass. Upon further examination, tiny specs can be seen floating in the beer, though none are of a considerable size.
On the nose, the beer smells smoothly funky with saison yeast and a good touch of pepper that spices the nose. Pineapple and a touch of orange juice can also be sensed on the nose, along with a nice, light wheat flake scent that suggests the beer's malt. The pineapple smell blends in and out of the funk smell, suggesting a presence of juicier hops and some nice, hay-like funk. On the tongue, the beer tastes fruity sweet and acidic with a light, tart pucker to the mouth and a very light touch of bitterness, which comes through more in the aftertaste. In flavor, the beer begins as light wheat malt, immediately exploding into huge pineapple bursts of flavor with herbal, funky side flavors and a light bitter grapefruit. The funk is deep enough that I think I detect some brett in the flavor, though I didn't think this beer had any in it… The finish is dry, yet full of pineapple funk flavors and just a touch of wheat malt, which the aftertaste accentuates. In the mouth, the beer feels sharp in carbonation, coming in somewhere on the heavy side of medium, while the body sits on the tongue comfortably at a medium weight. The mouth is left dry except for acid cancelling saliva on the sides of the cheeks and a light stickiness on the tongue.
Overall, this is a nice little saison with some rich complexity. It is delicate and very fruity with its funk, most likely due to the addition of white sage. It's not my favorite American Farmhouse Ale though. It's good and tasty and I would never turn it down, but it doesn't seem like the type of beer I would drink more than one of at a sitting, as it sits in the stomach a little heavy. It's rich and complex, but it doesn't light up my palate like it has for others.

Reading Time: 2 minutes
The group consists of the CEOs of Equinor, Hydro, the GSMA, Ìslandsbanki, Nokia, SAS, Swedbank, Telenor Group, Telia Company, Vestas and Yara International. The CEOs have joined forces to highlight the need for new business models that will drive the transition to a 21st century economy aligned with the ethical, social and environmental priorities of our time. The initiative also creates a platform for the Nordic Prime Ministers to engage directly with the CEOs on how to move from sustainability as a compliance exercise to purpose driven companies. A key objective is to explore ways to deliver more impact through collaboration and responsible business practices.
"Technology creates new opportunities to solve massive challenges connected to health, education and inequality. Businesses and the public sector play a key role in facilitating positive impact on society – that's why we need close and constructive collaboration across sectors and industries. Several of the major Nordic companies have acknowledged this and, as Telenor, aligned their business strategies to one or more of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. We want to be ambassadors of change and encourage more CEOs and business leaders to join in. This isn't about charity, it's about facilitating long-term sustainable growth," says Sigve Brekke, President & CEO, Telenor Group.
Anchored in business strategies
The CEOs have committed to aligning their business strategies with the UN SDGs and to exploring opportunities for collaboration. The arena will facilitate experience exchange, shared learning and explore how the companies can best measure effects and maximize impact of their efforts.
Telenor Group's core business of connectivity is a driver for reducing inequalities. The UN SDG #10, Reduced Inequalities is ingrained in the company's strategic direction and Telenor has committed to concrete contributions by 2020. These include facilitating seven million mobile birth registrations in Asia, providing online safety training for 4 million children, and delivering 100,000 hours of supply chain sustainability training.
Joint letter to the Nordic Prime Ministers
In the early stages of forming the initiative, the CEOs sent a joint letter to the Nordic Prime Ministers in June 2018 announcing their ambitions. This resulted in today's meeting with Norwegian Prime Minister Erna Solberg, who is also a co-chair of the UN's Global SDG Advocate group, during Nordic Council's 70th joint session. In the meeting, the CEOs presented the shared ambitions on behalf of the initiative and an updated joint letter. The group also discussed the importance of global trade and public-private partnerships as vital preconditions for realizing the UN SDGs.

Faqs Of Back Pain – Chronic And Acute[/vc_column_text]
What is the meaning of Abdominal Pain?
Stomach pain is also called abdominal pain, and is an indication of a far more complex issue, disease or temporary disorder. It is hard to correctly identify the source of intolerable abdominal pain, mainly because there are several diseases and disorders that can cause it.
According to studies conducted between 2011 and 2012 of casualty ward data across the United States, there was a rise seen in the number of reported cases of abdominal pain. Data from the National Center for Health Statistics has indicated in the past ten years, there has been a 32% increase in the quantity of casualty ward reports related to abdominal pain that was not caused by any sort of physical trauma.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding="padding-4-percent" column_padding_position="top" background_color_opacity="1″ el_class="kv1m" width="1/3″]
What is Chronic Back Pain?
Let us look at the definition. It is any type of back pain that continues to affect the individual for more than three months. It is likely that it won't have an easily detectable source. Even top doctors cannot easily pinpoint the source of chronic back related pain in most cases. In case the source of the pain can be detected, the back pain can be treated easily.
Certain spinal conditions like spinal stenosis as well as degenerative disc problem can lead to severe back pain. It can persist until suitable therapy is performed. These symptoms are detectable and can help to correct issues with the bone structure.
Chronic pain is related to any pain that lasts beyond 3 – 6 months. It is a case of extensive tissue degeneration. Chronic back pain can be caused by a botched back surgery, fibromyalgia or similar other complications.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding="padding-4-percent" column_padding_position="top" background_color_opacity="1″ width="1/3″]
What is Acute Back Pain?
Studies show that as many as eight people from 10 suffer from back pain, with the majority suffering from acute back pain (Chou, R. et al., Medline Plus, 2012). Acute back pain is any pain that persists no longer than 3 – 6 months.
The more the duration that the pain remains, the more vulnerable the individual is to chronic type of back pain. In the case of acute pain, lots of rest along with application of hot and cold packs can help relieve the pain. Drugs like anti inflammatories can also assist together with physiotherapy and chiropractic.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding="padding-4-percent" column_padding_position="top" background_color_opacity="1″ width="1/3″]
Can acute back pain become chronic?
5 – 10% of acute or severe back pain sufferers see this condition leading to chronic back pain; however, each case is unique and so not all individuals feel the same amount of pain. In a similar way, all individuals respond to treatment in different ways. While one complaining individual may only need drugs along with physiotherapy for effective pain relief in the case of a herniated type of disc, other patients may need surgery to correct the condition.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text]
How is Back Pain treated by doctors?
In the treatment of all kinds of back related pain, a doctor should have access to the patients complete medical records along with conducting a physical examination, testing motor as well as sensory neurons and reflexes. In many cases, acute type of back pain will not necessitate imaging tests to be conducted.
Individuals suffering from chronic type of back pain should have an X ray taken of their lumber spine, In case there are any indications, the patient must rush to get their blood tested, and have an MRI done. Indications include:
- Pain during rest
- Night Sweats as well as Chills
- Fevers
- Bowel or Bladder issues – this requires immediate treatment
One should always differentiate between back pain and pain that extends into the legs. This may be caused by spinal stenosis or it may be trigged by a herniated disc. An MRI will need to be done to verify if a nerve is being pinched.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text]
What is the treatment for back pain?
Therapy for back pain varies based on the type of pain. It also depends on the correlation established between back pain and leg pain if any. Patient can get one of the following treatments.
- NSAIDs or Tylenol available at local stores as OTC
- Physical Therapy or Chiropractic method
- Spinal Decompression method
- Acupuncture methods
- TENS Units treatment
- Trigger Point specific Injections
- Facet Blocks or Medial Branch Blocks from specialists
- Radiofrequency Ablation
- Even Spinal Cord Stimulator if nothing else works.
In case there is also leg pain, neuropathic medications like Lyrica as well as Neurontin may help along with epidural steroid injections.
Fewer than 5% of individuals suffering from back pain require surgery. In most cases, pain relief can be gained using Las Vegas Pain Management Treatment.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text]

Hubble, your universe is lovely, and how we long to travel there. But the distance between our feeble eyesight and yours is just too far. For now, we must stay in our blue-green marble playpen, tiny toddlers that we are, just beginning to learn one or two things. We cannot be let loose in the vastness of God's cosmos yet, the total perspective vortex of beauty would crush us.
First we must know how to float in the amniotic fluid of star spangled space, gazing across a Kubrik panorama. So we sit in our spherical classroom, transfixed by the blackboard dotted with white instead, till we can be trusted to poeticise about galaxies and paint galleries of nebulae.

Most men will never experience erectile dysfunction. It is not inevitable as a man grows older. However, 5% of 40 year-old men do suffer with ED, as do between 15% and 25% of 65 year-olds.
Between 15 and 30 million American men are estimated to suffer from erectile dysfunction. This figure varies according to how the condition is defined. The National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey (NAMCS) claims that in 1985, for every 1000 men in the US, 7.7 visits to physicians were due to erectile dysfunction. In 1999, this rate had tripled to 22.3 visits.
The biggest recent advance in treatment for erectile dysfunction was the highly-publicized March 1998 introduction to the market of the oral drug popularly known as Viagra. NAMCS estimate that Viagra was mentioned in 2.6 million visits to physicians in the United States in 1999, one third of which occurred when conditions other than ED were diagnosed. Nowadays, Sildenafil citrate is readily available. Online Viagra is particularly popular as it can avoid embarrassment purchasing the drug this way. Millions of email inboxes worldwide are filled with advertisements for online Viagra every day.

call on the name of the Lord....
Lord, we seek you and your strength;
we seek your presence continually.
(adapted from Psalm 105:1, 4)
Judges 21:1-25
Having banded together to battle against the Benjamites, defeated them soundly, and destroyed their towns, the other Israelites now became concerned that the tribe would be lost. They devise a bizarre and appalling plot to restore the tribe. After all, as the author of Judges keeps repeating, "In those days there was no king in Israel; all the people did what was right in their own eyes."
Ruth 1:1-22
The famine in Judah had driven Elimelech and his family to Moab. To Moab? Moab, the enemy of the Israelites as they entered into the Promised Land. Moab's king, Balak, was the one who hired Balaam to curse them (although that didn't work out the way Balak wanted; see Numbers 22-24.) After settlement, Moab was still their enemy. Under King Eglon, Moab controlled the Israelites for eighteen years (see Judges 3 for how this ended.)
Elimelech took his family to Moab. The place that has been your enemy has become your refuge. His sons married wives from Moab. Enemies become rescuers. Enemies become relatives.
Elimelech and his two sons die. His wife realizes that she has to go back to Judah. Her Moab family are daughters, and it is sons who have the responsibility to care for widows. She advises her widowed daughters-in-law to return to their families where they will have a chance of getting remarried.
One takes her advice. The other, Ruth, does not.
Ruth, the Moabite, refuses to abandon her mother-in-law even if that means she will have to go to a country that has been her country's enemy, even if it means giving up her family.
Phyllis Trible points out that only Abraham had made this radical a move.
Allen & Williamson in their Preaching the Old Testament, stress the importance of covenant. Having made covenant with her husband, Ruth has now extended covenant to her mother-in-law and to what is her mother-in-law's. They ask:
What would it take for today's congregation to make a Ruth-like commitment to the Naomis of the world?John 4:4-42
The antipathy between Jews and Samaritans extended back centuries in time. They were still distrustful of each other because of something that had happened, something that someone had done years and years ago. Yes, we can think of many modern day examples.
Jesus, a Jew, is traveling through Samaria. John reminds us that at one time Samaria was the home of Jesus' ancestors, a place near a plot of ground that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.
When a Samaritan woman approaches the well where he is sitting, Jesus asks her for a drink. She responds by commenting on how strange such a request is. Jesus answers her, "If you knew who was asking for this water, you would have been the one doing the asking, and you would have been asking for living water. And he would have given it to you."
She points out some apparent discrepancies in his assertion. "You don't have a bucket, and this well is deep. How are you going to get this living water?"
He cuts through her objections. "Everybody who drinks water from this well is going to get thirsty again. I'm talking about a different kind of water. Water that lasts. Spring water, gushing up to eternal life."
She wants this water.
Note from Allen & Williamson's Preaching the Gospels: The phrase "living water" is used to speak of God in Jeremiah 2:13; 17:13; salvation in Ezekiel 47:9 and Zechariah 14:8, and wisdom in Proverbs 13:14 and 18:4.
Boring and Craddock in The People's New Testament Commentary, also point out the use of this phrase in Scriptures to refer to God and the salvation God gives. They point out whereas in John, the living water is Jesus himself, mediated by the Spirit (7:37-39).
The Samaritan woman raises the question of where is the right place to worship. For her, the answer had been the mountain that had been the worship site for her people through history. She had understood Jesus to claim that Jerusalem was the appropriate place.
Jesus said to her that neither of the above was the place (although he did assert that salvation is from the Jews). [Remember that at the time of their discussion, the Samaritan temple would have been long gone, and by the time John's Gospel was written, the temple in Jerusalem would have been destroyed.]
The place is not the determinant. God comes looking for true worshipers.
But the time is important. "The hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Gather in spirit and truth."
The Messiah has come, is come, will come.
He then told the woman, "God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth." She responded, "I know that Messiah is coming. when he comes, he will proclaim all things to us." Jesus said to her, "I am he, the one who is speaking to you."
Even if those WWJD bracelets had been popular at the time, his disciples would not have supposed that talking to a woman would be the answer to that question. John's gospel tells us that they were astonished that he was speaking with a woman. I'm pausing here to wonder whose association with Jesus would be astonishing to us modern-day disciples. Who do we think Jesus would be likely to hang out with? Who not? Why not?
Back to the passage--She preached, but with some uncertainty. Yet, the people who heard her wanted to know more. They left what they were doing to make their way to the one she thought might be the Messiah but wasn't sure.
Meanwhile, the disciples, the ones closest to him, wanted him to eat something. Just as he used the word "water" to mean water and more than water, he uses the word "food": "My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to complete his work."
Another metaphor--harvest. "Look around, the fields are ripe for harvesting." At the conclusion of our worship service one Sunday, we went outside to the steps to receive the benediction. As we few stood there, we could see many cars going by on the street, a couple of cyclers riding by, and even some pedestrians. I wondered what they were thinking as they saw us there, and if they would want to come inside some time--and how we might figure out how to invite them to.
And whatever we do or whenever we do it, someone has already done the preparatory work.
She had been an unlikely choice for evangelist--a woman when women weren't supposed to do public things and a member of an ethic group that was considered not to be one that they would have anything to do with anyway. Yet, having met Jesus, she listened to him, and she believed him enough to go around telling other people what she had heard. And many of them believed in him because of her testimony. Because they believed, they invited Jesus to stay with them. And many more believed because of his word.
We don't have to do all the work ourselves. We don't have to do all the proving and convincing. We can trust that the word of Jesus is still convincing. Yet, we do need to do some work, some telling what we have heard, what we have experienced. Let us remember that we don't even have to be fully convinced in order to be convincing.
Psalm 105:1-15
Although Psalm 105 is a litany of praise for God's goodness of Israel, we all can appropriate its words to apply to our situations.
In our daily prayers as we thank God for what we already have and also ask for even more gifts, we may utilize the commands in this psalm as a checklist:
Give thanks to the Lord.Proverbs 14:25
Tell people what God has done for you.
Seek the Lord.
Seek the Lord continually.
Remember what God has done for you.
A truthful witness saves lives,
but one who utters lies is a betrayer.
Prayer for Today: Choose a prayer from Joan Stott's the Timeless Psalms.

Concrete Batch Plants
Settlement Approved
Posted August 4, 2020
In early June 2020, City Council approved a settlement agreement with L'hoist North America of Texas, LLC that outlines provisions for L'hoist to cease their current lime slurry operation located at 2005 S. McDonald St. and remove all associated equipment from the site on or before May 31, 2022. If L'hoist complies with all of the requirements of the settlement agreement, the city agrees to pay a one-time fee of $500,000.
On July 29, 2020, the Board of Adjustments unanimously voted to approve a compliance date of April 29, 2021 for the nonconforming concrete batch plant operated by TXI Operations, LP/Martin Marietta Redi-Mix at 2005 S. McDonald Street. This compliance date requires that the nonconforming concrete batch plant use at that site be closed or otherwise come into compliance with the requirements of the zoning ordinance on or before April 29, 2021. This recent Board action is part of the city's amortization efforts.

Posted Aug. 5, 2019
Based on documents provided by representatives from Martin Marietta to the city and TCEQ, a more full picture of the events of July 18, 2019, is now known. On the evening of July 18, 2019, an automatic shutdown system for one of the cement silos failed to shut down a blower motor. The result was that the system continued to fill a silo with cement beyond the capacity of the silo. A pressure release value eventually activated and released the pressure along with the particulate matter.
It is conservatively estimated that the event lasted approximately 5 hours and 15 minutes during which no more than 8,000 pounds (4 tons) of cement dust left the facility's boundary. The facility was not operational or staffed during the event so the release continued until the system was shut down manually. Additional investigations are still ongoing and cleanup of the areas affected continues. Property owners seeking assistance with cleanup from this event are encouraged to contact Martin Marietta representatives at 972-647-3300 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Posted July 20, 2019
At approximately 11:30 p.m. on July 18, 2019, the McKinney Fire Department was dispatched for a reported cloud of smoke from one of the facilities located on the east side of S.H. 5 (McDonald Street) just north of the intersection with Spur 399. No fire was found but they observed a cloud of dirt and dust being emitted from some equipment on site.
The City of McKinney is still investigating the incident and working with representatives with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). Individuals with detailed information about this incident are encouraged to contact Michael Quint, Executive Director of Development Services . Concerned residents can also contact the TCEQ to make an environmental complaint.
Due to the preliminary nature of the investigation, immediate health impacts are not known at this time. Residents are encouraged to take any health precautions that they deem appropriate.
Upon completion of its investigation, the City of McKinney will explore all enforcement options available. The city will also be requesting that the TCEQ do the same.

Although the vast majority of cement is comprised of limestone (primarily calcium carbonate), various metals are also present in cement, as noted by some citizens. However, in regard to this short-term emission event, the potential for health effects (e.g., skin, respiratory, eye irritation) stems from the physical presence and corrosive nature of the cement dust particulate matter itself rather than specific constituents. Once the dust is removed, this event is not expected to represent a long-term concern.
Posted July 22, 2019
In light of a presumed acute emission event where cement dust deposition occurred overnight on the off-site property, it should be noted that cement dust is corrosive so it is best to avoid direct skin, eye, respiratory system, or other contact with it. That is, care should be taken to prevent cement dust exposure of the skin, eyes, or respiratory system since irritation and even tissue damage could occur with sufficiently high exposure. For example, protective equipment such as safety goggles and impervious gloves/clothing/shoes can be used to help reduce the potential for significant eye or dermal exposure.
If you have come into contact with cement dust, use common sense. For example, wash skin with soap and water in the event of dermal contact, or rinse eyes thoroughly for several minutes with clean water (with any contacts removed) if eye exposure occurs, and seek timely medical attention from your doctor or other medical care provider for any health concerns (e.g., respiratory symptoms, skin or eye irritation). These recommendations are to help address this short-term concern; once the dust is removed, this event is not expected to represent a long-term concern.
Our Toxicology Section is available to speak with citizens concerned with impacts from the dust as well. They can be reached at 877-992-8370.
Frequently Asked Questions About Concrete Batch Plants
Posted July 2018
Some manufacturing operations located at State Highway 5 (McDonald Street) near Stewart Road have recently received attention from nearby residents due to concerns about various issues like noise, lighting and air quality. These operations include two concrete batch plants (TXI / Martin Marietta Ready Mix and Cowtown Redi-Mix) and a lime slurry facility (Lhoist North America of Texas). In response to citizens' concerns, the city is actively monitoring the properties and working to gain compliance with all applicable city regulations.
1. What is a concrete batch plant?
A concrete batch plant or batch plant is a manufacturing operation that uses equipment to combine various ingredients to form concrete.
2. What is lime slurry?
Lime slurry is used for a variety of industrial, municipal and environmental applications. In McKinney, it is commonly used to stabilize the ground underneath a roadway.
3. Why are concrete batch plants necessary?
In a rapidly growing community such as McKinney (and Collin County), the production of concrete is a critical part of construction activities. Concrete is used in sidewalks, roads, building foundations, walls for buildings, etc. Many concrete batch plant facilities operate temporarily for specific construction projects and often go unnoticed by the average citizen.
4. How long have these uses been at this location?
The area has been designated for industrial land uses since as far back as the 1964 General Development Plan (now referred to as a Comprehensive Plan) for the city. There have been manufacturing uses in this location, including concrete batch plants, since at least 1996.
5. Where are concrete batch plants allowed?
In general, temporary concrete batch plants that meet all applicable regulations are allowed to exist on a construction site in support of construction activities. However, permanent concrete batch plants are only allowed within certain industrial zoning districts as outlined in the city's Zoning Ordinance. Zoning and rezoning requests that come before the city are reviewed and evaluated for conformance with the city's comprehensive plan and are heard before the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council for consideration and action.
6. If allowed by the Zoning Ordinance, will City Council review and approve development applications for a permanent concrete batch plant?
No. Temporary concrete batch plants that meet all applicable regulations are permitted through the standard development permitting process by city staff. In order to build a permanent concrete batch plant, a site plan must first be approved. Typically, site plans that meet applicable development regulations are approved at the staff level. Staff does not have the authority to disapprove a site plan that meets all applicable regulations. If a site plan does not meet all applicable regulations, staff must forward the site plan to the Planning and Zoning Commission for action. In rare instances, a property's zoning may require City Council approval.
7. What types of regulations apply to these types of facilities to ensure the health, safety, and general welfare of the public?
The city has regulations that govern a number of aspects of the built environment, including but not limited to noise, lighting, air quality, vehicular traffic, stormwater, landscaping, screening and the overall development of a site.
8. How does the city enforce its regulations and ordinances?
Enforcing regulations in McKinney is a partnership between city staff and the public. While staff strives to proactively monitor and enforce all applicable city regulations, due to the rapid growth and large incorporated area of McKinney, some enforcement comes about as a result of citizen-initiated concerns.
9. What can the city do about air pollution?
Air quality is primarily governed by statewide rules set forth by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). The city proactively works with the TCEQ to ensure that all applicable regulations are satisfied. Given recent concerns related to air quality raised by some McKinney citizens, the city is currently evaluating ways in which we can supplement the work that TCEQ has performed to date.
10. What is the city doing to protect residents located near permanent concrete batch plants?
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) receives many complaints statewide related to many different environmental issues. Because of the volume of complaints received, their resources are typically spread very thin, making enforcement difficult. However, the McKinney Code of Ordinances allows the city to assist the TCEQ in this process. Ensuring that businesses and operators comply with all applicable city code requirements is a priority to the city, and we are currently evaluating ways in which we can supplement the work that TCEQ has performed to date.
11. What is the city doing to control the overnight lighting of permanent concrete batch plants?
The city's Code of Ordinances governs the lighting on all properties within the city. This governance includes capping the amount of light that can cross a property line and how light is controlled on a site. A site's lighting is designed, installed and inspected as part of the traditional development process but old properties may have lighting in place that no longer meets current regulations. Regardless of the age of the site, city staff investigates all lighting complaints and utilizes equipment to test lighting levels. If violations are identified, then appropriate enforcement actions will be pursued in order to gain compliance with applicable regulations.

Your Metallum Animae Is Aluminum
KEY TRAITS: Aluminums are typically analytical and curious, and they're nearly always eager to explore, try, and learn new things. They tend to be quick thinkers, so they can easily think and make decisions on their feet. They love making themselves useful and are often eager to volunteer their help or suggestions. They'll usually pour their hearts and souls into whatever they do because they want to leave a good impression.
On the downside, aluminums can also be a bit shortsighted. They might be good at thinking quickly, but it doesn't mean they've thought it through. Thus their hastily-devised plans and schemes can land them in hot water. Their eagerness to impress can make them annoyingly ingratiating, and sometimes they get so carried away in talking about their ideas and opinions that they don't notice they've drowned everyone else out. Sometimes they get so wrapped up in something that catches their interest that they forget that other people have wants and needs, too; or their fascination with the subject overrides their sense of tact and they end up saying something a bit insensitive. ("You have a toenail fungus? What species is it? Can I see?")
AS MYSTERANIUM-ENHANCED PEOPLE: Aluminums often have powers that work on small scales, but are very good for precision work. (And don't think for one minute that their powers are "useless" - they're the ones to figure out how to get devastating results from the most insignificant-seeming powers.) They're also likely to have electrical powers, or powers connecting to machinery (especially electronics.) Teleportation and enhanced aim and/or vision aren't uncommon, either.
AS MAGES: Aluminums are likely to work well with electricity or any small-scale magic, and are fairly likely to have a knack for scrying. They're likely to be able to easily draw power from the clouds, power stations, or even buildings. (However, their impatience can potentially be a hindrance to developing magical skills in the first place.)
AS VAMPIRES: Aluminums may find having enhanced senses useful in their endeavors, but they may also find the need to find and drink blood particularly frustrating if it gets in the way of whatever they really want to do.
AS MERPEOPLE: Aluminums may enjoy the experience and adventure that comes with being a merperson.
AS PROCTORS: Aluminums can serve well as proctors, as it can make them feel useful.
AS ELVES: Aluminums may particularly enjoy being elves for the opportunities it provides for investigation and exploration, plus being able to magically fix things might be right up their alleys. While some might find the disadvantages to be too inconvenient, others will find that the advantages far outweigh them.

The Best Laptops of 2018 Recommended by Consumer Reports lists some of the best devices which will make perfect gifts this holiday season. Consumer Reports is the best resource that will help you sort through thousands of products and offers in any segment available. The group rigorously tests hundreds of variants with diligence and independence to create unbiased reviews.
You can spend thousands on a laptop without knowing if you are getting the best bang for your buck. Picking a big-display device with mediocre specs or a portable option with overkill internals is an easy mistake if you don't take advice from expert reviewers such as Consumer Reports. Here are Consumer Reports' best laptops of 2018 arranged by size:
Samsung Galaxy Book 10.6 – Best 10-11-Inch Laptop of 2018
The Samsung Galaxy Book 10.6 isn't as powerful as the other options since it focuses on extreme portability and design rather than meaty specs. The internals composed of a low-power processor, 4GB RAM, and a 64GB SSD is only suitable for basic office tasks or browsing, but the 2-in-1 convertibility is an awesome capability to have.
This $600 device makes up for it by offering a premium design which encompasses superb ergonomics and portability. The materials focus on being as lightweight as possible without compromising the quality of the craftsmanship.
MacBook Pro 13" – Best 12-13-Inch Laptop of 2018
Apple's latest MacBook Pro 13" packs a punch with its Intel Core i5 processor for heavier tasks such as photo editing and content creation. This premium laptop is one of the fastest Consumer Reports has tested, making it a top choice for professionals on the go.
It's interesting to note that despite having a more powerful Intel i5 8th Gen processor, this MacBook Pro still does not have a dedicated GPU. In exchange, users get to enjoy four more hours of usage (total of 18 hours!) compared to the previous version.
LG Gram 14 – Best 14-Inch Laptop of 2018
The LG Gram 14 is Consumer Reports' highest rated 14-inch laptop for 2018 due to its meaty specs built into a 2.2-pound package. This model's features include an Intel i7 quad-core chip along with 8GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD for considerably more storage space.
For around $1400, you get a faster and roomier laptop than the MacBook Pro above that doesn't skimp on design. It's also amazing that the LG Gram 14 can last up to 15 hours per charge as proven by Consumer Reports' exclusive lab testing.
MacBook Pro 15" – Best 15-16-Inch Laptop of 2018
The MacBook Pro 15" takes everything that's good about the 13" variant and makes it beefier and bolder. This variant packs a stronger punch with its Intel Core i7 Processor and 16GB of ram, plus a larger SSD for more storage.
The battery life of 13.5 hours as tested by Consumer Reports is considerably shorter than the 13's 18 hours. However, the extra power that the MacBook Pro includes will make it suitable for rigorous tasks such as photo editing on Adobe Photoshop or even casual gaming.
Dell Inspiron 17 7773 – Best 17-18-Inch Laptop of 2018
The Dell Inspiron 17 7773 which has been around since 2017 is an excellent solution with high-end specs for a significantly lower price. This 17-inch beast includes an 8th generation Intel processor with 16GB of RAM which makes it perfect for heavy tasks such as photo and video editing.
The Dell Inspiron 17 7773 isn't a lightweight like the rest of the options at 6.2 lbs, but it's forgivable since you get a considerably larger screen. But what truly sets this winner is the 9.5-hour battery life which is double of what other 17-inch models offer.

Sweater: Eloquii/ Earrings: Express
I wrote this letter to my younger self two years ago….
Girl you are the sh**! Yep, I said it! Don't be self-conscious about the extra meat around your midsection and thighs. You are beautiful just the way you are. Your caramel melanated skin is the bees knees. And your full lips are what the people want. It's what your counter parts wish they had and may one day be willing to pay thousands for. You are worth more than gold. Girl, as I told you before, you are the sh**! You are smart, way smarter than you think. You are different and quite unique and that makes you special. It makes you, you.
All of those dreams, all of those visions, start working towards them and they will begin to manifest. Don't wait and don't be discouraged. Remember what mommy always told you, you can do all things through Christ that strengthens you. So go after your heart's desires and don't look back. Greater is he that is in you, then he that is in the world. Although people may hurt you, continue to love as hard as you can. Forgive others over and over and over again even when it stings most. You don't want bitterness to take root in your heart.
Always, always speak your mind and never be afraid-to stand up for yourself and those you love. Plant your feet deep and make sure you are rooted in Christ. He is and always will be the source of your strength. Remember to cast all of your cares on him because he cares for you. He loves you so much and there is nothing you can do to make him stop loving you. Princess, girl, people are going to fail you, but you must keep moving.
Always count it all joy and never hold grudges. It will do nothing but make life harder. Never ever forget that what people say about you is none of your business. Always be kind, always be respectful, always show love, always remember that you are beautiful just as you are. Always remember that you are the SH**!
Your 34 year old self.

The winners of the 47th annual Hennessy Literary Awards were announced last night.
Hennessy revealed Aaron Finnegan as the winner of the First Fiction category, Louise G. Cole for Emerging Poetry, and Manus Boyle Tobin for Emerging Fiction.
From the three winners, Manus Boyle Tobin was named the Hennessy New Irish Writer of the Year in the historic surrounds of The Honourable Society of King's Inns Dublin.
The winners were chosen by authors Marina Carr and Niall Griffiths and The Irish Times' New Irish Writing page editor, Ciaran Carty.
Speaking about his story Manus said: "This story was inspired by glimpses and snapshots of Dublin and its people. By the housing crisis, homelessness and isolation.
"By each preceding line that gave way to the next. By the taxi driver who had nowhere to return to when he finished his shift."
The Dubliner holds a M.A. in Creative Writing from UCD and his winning story 'The Drizzle on the Windscreen' has appeared in The Moth and The Poetry Bus magazines.
He has also written a play 'Between the Dawns' which was staged in Smock Alley Theatre in 2017 as part of The Irish Playback.
The winner of the Emerging Poetry award, Roscommon-based Louise G. Cole performs her poetry at the monthly Word Corner Café at the Dock in Carrick-on-Shannon, and with the Hermit Collective, a group of writers, artists and musicians who stage pop-up shows in the west of Ireland.
Louise also writes fiction and was shortlisted for a Hennessy Literary Award in 2015.
Louise said: "I try to mix humour with the pathos of life's daily sadnesses: frail, elderly parents, humanity's innate cruelty, bigotry and intolerance, displacement, forgetfulness, environmental disasters."
Aaron Finnegan, who came top in the First Fiction category, is a 20-year-old student from Louth in his second year of Drama and Theatre studies at Trinity College Dublin.
He is a writer and director with a keen interest in literature and film and 'Just This' is his first published work of fiction.
He said: "The things that grip us in stories are the things we eventually end up writing about. For me, it's the details.
"It's the music you can find in language. It's the genuine need to connect. I tried to capture the sense that everything is bigger than us, and things always have a way of slipping by you."

While Lue worked the sunny side of the street, James didn't seem quite so enthusiastic about the process when the result was authentic nba throwback jerseys falling nfl jerseys free shipping china to 5-7 on the season.
So did everyone else on the court. Carmelo Anthony's eyes darted from Westbrook to Baynes and, sensing what was about to happen, Anthony cleared the runway.

Hoiberg, who has been under scrutiny since he took over Lonzo Ball cheap jersey for Tom Thibodeau a little over Stephen Curry home jersey two years ago, was trying to accentuate any positives he could find.
