What are time wasters?
We know that a lot of time is wasted in today's world. The question is what is a waste of time and what is a good use of time? Just who gets to say what a "time waster" is, anyway? One man's waste is another man's treasure. We'll look at this in this post.
Take any given activity or pursuit, and some people are going to think it's a time waster, while others will find it a valuable, perhaps even indispensable use of time in their lives:
- Having children and spending time teaching them things
- Spending time with friends and family
- Moonlighting
- Taking college courses
- Crocheting
- Watching football
- Cooking
- Riding horses
- Hunting for edible wild foods
- Starting a business
- Washing and reusing items other people just throw away
- Tutoring at-risk children, or tutoring prisoners
- Going to hockey games
- Creating art
- Playing an instrument
- Reading
- Watching movies/episodes
- Taking walks
- Blogging
This list could go on forever, and if I was aiming for a huge word count, I'd keep going, but I'm not.
Some people even think that having a job is a waste of time, so that could go in the list. Now, I'm all for having a job or business that uses your skills and doesn't feel like a waste of time, and I encourage people to find something that fits them well, but I'm not "anti-job." When I think about this anti-work-utopia thing, where leisure is our whole purpose for existing… it makes me shudder, and I can only think about it for about one second.
No, I believe people are teleological: we need goals, we need to be productive. Maybe not to the extent that Western society pushes for, but we still need it. Not everyone believes that, though. It's appalling, the nearly hundreds of thousands of searches each month where people are looking online for ways to waste their time while on the job. That's theft, and it just makes me shake my head. The people who want to accomplish something with their lives are looking for time wasters so they can eliminate or reduce them, and there are people who are looking for MORE time wasters? That's a shame.
Managing time
What constitutes a time waster is subjective. Only you can decide if getting a manicure is a waste of time (and money) or if it contributes to your success. Only you can decide if it's relaxing and therefore helpful for you to watch a CSI NY episode or if it's going to get you twisted up in knots. Maybe on Saturday it is relaxing and good, yet you have work that's due on Wednesday, so on Tuesday night it would not be good to take the time to hop on Netflix and see what Mac and crew are up to.
We all need time to rest, relax, and recreate, and even the military—that bastion of efficiency—acknowledges that: thus the term R&R (rest and relaxation/recuperation/recreation). So please don't think I'm pushing you to work more, harder, longer, faster. Just ask yourself this: are you wasting too
much time, beyond what you need to stay healthy?
For some people, especially Creatives, time spent taking a walk or having a cup of coffee is a good use of time: it might lead to some good ideas, or it might provide the recuperation we need to go and be productive afterward. For others, it's just a way to avoid work. For some of us, whether it's a good use of time or a way to procrastinate might vary from day to day!
Waste of time
I am not your mama. I can't tell you what goes in your "time wasters" list. Even your mama can't determine what is a waste of time for you. A few questions that might help you figure it out.
- Do you have work that needs to be done?
- Does this thing help you do that?
- Will it help you be more productive later if you do it now?
- Could you be more productive if you used it as a reward for AFTER you get the work done?
- Would you be ashamed to tell all of the people who are important to you that you spent this time doing this item?
- Is this activity interfering with the things that are more important, such as doing my job and taking care of my family?
- Are you the only person who can do this item, or could it be handed off to someone else?
- Is there a better time to do it?
- How will your life be better for doing this? (If the answer is "it won't be better," then it's probably a waste of time).
Things you have to do
In the book Do More Great Work, there's a chart where readers can plot their tasks along two axes; one could be phrased "it matters to me/it doesn't matter to me" and the other "it matters to my bosses/it doesn't matter to them." This makes four areas for plotting the items. I'm going to mention the quadrant where it doesn't matter to you but it does matter to your bosses. Those are the things that have to get done, whether you like it or not, even when those things are stupid. Because I work almost exclusively with Creatives who are solopreneurs, I'll adapt that chart to the field.
Our "bosses" are the editors, publishers, readers, buyers, gallery owners, clients, customers, IRS… If we want to stay in business, we have to do the things that we don't want to do, but our "bosses" want done, even if they seem like a waste of time to us (and some are). The key here is to get through it as quickly (yet accurately) as possible, and then spend time on things that are important to you. There are many time management and productivity techniques you can use. Rewarding yourself in some way can provide good motivation.
One final thought: if something is important to you, and it's not illegal/immoral, and it's not interfering with the most important things like job and family, then don't let any0ne tell you it's a waste of time, because to you, it's not. Now, I'm going to go enjoy a meal with my family—a meal I cooked ahead of time so I'd have more time to write today.

Apollo Pre-Launch Testing Invitation
Now that the Apollo Pioneer Program is well underway, we'll be looking to increase the number of companies that can begin to review and test Apollo. This unique opportunity helps us work closely with users to refine new tools and features, while providing first access to the latest game-changing software solutions.
What are we looking to learn before we launch?
- Can you deploy Apollo Construct in a live/test environment during the first three months after initial training?
- Are you able to have Apollo business and technical specialists work shoulder to shoulder with you to better understand requirements?
- Can you respond regularly to short surveys on specific areas of customer experience and join focused group meetings when your insights are required?
- Can you help us develop the best pricing model that respects what it takes us to deliver excellent software at cost that demonstrably proves valuable to you?
There is plenty of software to choose from in the Architectural, Engineering and Construction space, and early on Katerra realized that to successfully add another solution to the market, we'd have to step back, work at a business level with organizations and make sure the technologies we introduce can be easily implemented and easily afforded. So we'd like your help getting this right by signing up to test not only our software, but the whole commercial experience of using Apollo. There are four key areas we'd need you to sign up for:
What benefits can you expect in return?
What will our pre-launch companies get out of this in the long run?
Of course, you can expect favorable long term pricing once our products are commercially available, but even more importantly, we can work together toward outcomes that respect your time investment, ensuring you gain significant, visible competitive advantages in driving productivity across your organizations.
Apollo Pre-Launch Invitation
Earlier this year, we launched our Apollo Pioneer Program, and now an energetic group of building professionals are working with us to ensure our first public release of Apollo will be ready for prime time. Very soon, we'll be ready to expand the opportunity of testing Apollo to even more companies. Register here to join the short list.

An MH-60S Seahawk, assigned to the "Chargers" of Helicopter Combat Support Squadron (HSC) 26, delivers ammunition from the Military Sealift Command ammunition ship USNS Mount Baker (T-AE 34) onto the flight deck of the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN 71). (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 3rd Class Jonathan Snyder)
USS THEODORE ROOSEVELT, At Sea (NNS) -- USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN 71) (TR) completed a connected replenishment (CONREP) with ammunition ship USNS Mount Baker (T-AE 34) Feb. 6 as Sailors helped return supplies and ammunition offloaded last year before a routine maintenance period.
"When we were in the shipyard, we offloaded all of our ammunition because we had to renovate the ship," said TR Executive Officer, Capt. Greg Fenton. "This CONREP gives the Deck Department enough practice to perform underway replenishments (UNREPs) and CONREPs to load supplies onto the ship."
TR Sailors felt they were prepared for the CONREP before the underway period started.
"So far, this will be my second CONREP," said Aviation Ordnanceman (AW) 3rd Class Dustin Heinbaugh. "It took us months of preparation to get ready for this. We had the best training to get us prepared for the CONREP. I believe if we perform this CONREP as smoothly as possible and exactly like we were trained, we should be done ahead of schedule."
Not only is the CONREP essential to TR's mission readiness, Sailors have to keep safety in mind while loading ordnance onto the ship.
"Everyone has to be vigilant and keep an eye on our shipmates at all times," said Chief Boatswain's Mate (SW) Alston Gaines, Deck Department's 1st Division leading chief petty officer (LCPO). "When we load everything we need onto the ship, there are many dangerous factors that have to be taken into account. For example, nobody should be standing between the load and sliding pad eye. It's also important that no one turns their back on the rig because the load could break loose and fall on someone."
After loads are complete and more onloading occurs, departments bring the ammunition to their respective locations.
"We have to make certain magazines are loaded into certain types of ordnance," said Senior Chief Gunner's Mate (SW) Valerie Waters, Weapons Department's G-2 division LCPO. "Our job is to properly segregate all the ammunition to make sure every weapon is put in their place. So far, we've loaded torpedoes, bombs and small arms ammunition onto the ship."

This is hard for me to say. I feel like I'm saying to God who gave me this gift, "take it back" or "I don't want it" which is NOT the case at ALL. I am so thankful for EVERY single day of this experience of being pregnant with our first child. And, I am really working hard on this post to NOT sound negative and to not complain. I'm just being real about my feelings, my guilt for not loving every minute of being pregnant and read the end…..I come full circle with this and tell you why I think I feel this way!!
It's not what I thought it'd be! First of all, I thought I'd LOVE being pregnant and LOVE all the parts of it, feel great and never want the pregnancy to end. I thought I'd be able to say "I've never felt better" but I have felt better, much better. I feel best when I'm lean and can move and run. I feel best when I can eat all the healthy foods I love! Well, I don't feel excellent and I feel a bit guilty for feeling that way.
I thought I'd want to be pregnant forever!! I met my husband at 15 so we've had many years of dreaming of our future together. I have looked forward to being pregnant for years….like dreaming of my wedding day, I dreamed of my pregnancy. But, unlike my wedding day that I didn't want to end, I'm ready to meet this girl!!! It's crazy!!! Before you experience things, sometimes you don't get it. I didn't really "get" that I would want to see and meet this little girl growing in there! Not saying I want pregnancy to end, just that I'm ready to meet her. I didn't anticipate that feeling!
I thought I could say "I've never felt better!!" Well the first trimester was a wake up call. I've rarely felt worse than that two months! 🙁 And, even now during the honeymoon phase I don't feel better than I ever have in my entire life. Thank goodness I don't feel awful like I did the first trimester, but I don't feel the best I've ever felt. In the shower today [all my best thinking happens in the shower!], I realized why……
Mobility! I love being lean because I can MOVE! I can bend over and bend backward and feel my muscles working. I can work out hard in the gym and feel strong. I can work out to the point of exhaustion and not have to worry about doing any harm to the little person inside that is more important than my ego or my physical goals. I can get in and out of my car easily, get dressed easily, etc. It feels comfortable to be lean. It's getting frustrating not being able to bend and move!
Vulnerability! I didn't realize that the tough FITori would feel vulnerable when out and about! I don't feel as strong. I don't feel like I could defend myself in any situation like I used to. I feel more vulnerable and that's tough!
Hormones! This is coming from someone who doesn't handle taking the birth control pill without getting "cooky!" [Mirena is my friend!] I do not do well with the added hormones. A pregnant woman has as much estrogen in her body in one day as a woman has in a year or something crazy like that. SO, it's not surprising. But, I'll tell you that I am not used to crying this much. I am not used to being offended as easily or as often…..NOT like me at all. And, I could live without the breakouts! 🙂
Kiss independence goodbye for a while! I really do hate asking for help but I do if I really must. I really, really hate asking, begging, nagging FIThubby for things. We're busy people. There are times I want something done and I'd rather do it myself than be a nagging wife. Unfortunately, I don't feel comfortable right now getting on a ladder or going into the attic. UGH! I have to ask, beg and nag for help. I hate it! [Let's just say getting the Christmas decorations put away was tons of fun this year….read: sarcasm.]
Worry. Everything I feel makes me worry and wonder. What's going on in there? Is everything ok? Am I eating the right things? I haven't felt her move in a while? Is she ok? What is that stretch? that cramp? Every appointment I worry. I thought I'd eat really, really healthy during pregnancy….just like I did before. WOW! I never planned on all these food aversions and having to get really creative with protein! I had no idea! I worry about every ache and every feeling. I thought once 12 weeks came and went I'd feel better. Then, 16 weeks. Now after my next appointment I think I'll stop worrying….hmmm…..
The moral of this story is…..I believe everything happens for a reason. I believe that this is all "training" for motherhood. Will I be as lean as I want to be right away after birth? Nope. Will I be able to "go" like I used to after the baby is born? Nope. Will I feel vulnerable when I have to protect my new baby? Yep! Will I have serious hormone surges after birth? Yep! Will I have to ask for help after having a newborn? Yep. Will I ever stop worrying about my baby for the rest of my life? Nope.
And, most importantly, will I feel like I LOVE motherhood every single day for the rest of my life? Nope. I'm assuming all mothers have guilt when they don't love every minute of pregnancy and motherhood. We can't love everything all the time anyway. I am a happy person though for the most part. I wake up happy, usually. I work hard to make my surroundings, my friends, my life happy. I have no doubt I will love my life after our baby is born. BUT life is not perfect.
So, my epiphany today makes me feel a bit better, realizing that these discomforts are preparation for the next phase of my life. I also realize that not loving every minute of pregnancy is okay. I am enjoying this while it lasts and all the perks of it and even laughing through already struggling to get off the couch because my belly is in the way.
Were you surprised with pregnancy? How did you feel? Did you feel better than you ever had in your life?
Did you feel guilty like I do for not loving every minute?

Introversion-Annotated Bibliography
Introversion-Annotated Bibliography
Aron, E. N.,& Aron, A. (1997). Sensory-processing sensitivity and itsrelation to introversion and emotionality. Journalof personality and social psychology,73(2),345-368
Usingempirical study, Aron E & Aron A (1997) demonstrates how sensoryprocessing sensitivities correlates with social introversion andemotionality. The authors show that the research on physiologicalrelated performances within different personality indicates thatintroverts have clear biochemical differences. For example, theauthors note that some sensory variables act to increase sensitivityin introverts but such variables cannot increase the same sensitivityin extraverts. The utilization of this piece of literature will helpin understanding the correlation between sensory processes andsensitivity among introverts. The authors suggest that sensoryprocess enhance sensitivities among introverts thus, the use of thefindings from the study will help in designing a framework on thesensitivity analysis of introverts.
Inthe article, comprehensive literature develops on sensory processingthus, the article contains the required piece of literature onintroverts. The authors assert that introverts have weak facets toinhibit exposures thus, they need to protect themselves fromexcitation unlike extraverts. The authors apply qualitative approachto define the fundamental characteristics of people identified ashighly sensitive. Here, the authors conclude that high sensitivity isan internally dependable paradigm. In this regards, the authorsassert that sensitivity is connected to social introversion, but doesnot have a clear identity to introversion. Likewise, emotionality hasa high link to high sensitivity, but lacks the clear identity oflinkage. In addition, the authors suggest that there exist twoseparate groups of high sensitivity people since the identicalfundamental temperament that exist among introverts depend onenvironmental factors in adulthood. As such, childhood experienceshave significant effects on adult neuroticism because of relationshipbetween insecure attachment styles and neuroticism. In fact, poorparenting cam affect sensitive children highly due to the presence ofcortisol reactions. Given the above facets to the article, theauthors provide highly significant suggestions that help tounderstand the sensitivity processes in introverts.
Lieberman, M. D., & Rosenthal, R. (2001). Why introverts can`talways tell who likes them: multitasking and nonverbaldecoding. Journal of personality and socialpsychology, 80(2), 294-310
Lieberman &Rosenthal (2001) in this article suggest that introverts do not havea high propensity to multi-tasking and they have poor dynamics indecoding nonverbal. In addition, the authors suggest that introvertscan only decode nonverbal facets only when the decoding is a primarytask. The authors support theories that demonstrate the socialcompetencies of extraverts compared to introverts and the advantagethat extraverts have in the utility of nonverbal decoding. As such,the authors assert that introverts have poor dynamics in multitask.In addition, the authors by using an empirical study demonstrate thatthere exists a huge difference between introverts and extraverts interms of attentional orientation. Utilizing the literature inunderstanding introversion helps in drawing a design manifestation ofmultitask and decoding.in addition, the article contains a comparisonapproach, which helps in understanding the major differences betweenintroverts and extraverts.
Lieberman & Rosenthal (2001) conduct two studies to demonstratethe differences that exist between introverts and extraverts. In thefirst study, the authors examine the accuracy of nonverbal decodingfor extraverts and introverts within the multitasking context whilein the second study, they manipulates the basic social objective suchthat dyads focus on CM and RA in a comparable context. In studythree, the authors replicate study one and study two in a multitaskframework while in study four, they give the extraverts andintroverts memory tasks to assess the context of the working-memorydisparity associated with introversion. In this regards, the authorsdemonstrate that although differences exist between introverts andextraverts, but major differences in decoding exist because mosttasks require introverts and extraverts to maintain a single goal.
Thorne, A. (1987). The press of personality: A study of conversationsbetween introverts and extraverts. Journal of Personality andSocial Psychology, 53(4), 718-726
Thorne (1987)uses an empirical study of 52 women assembled in sets, in twoconversations one with an extravert and an introvert to understandthe interactions between introverts and extraverts. Using qualitativeanalysis, the authors demonstrate that there exists a huge differencebetween conversational styles cultivated by introverts and thosecultivated by extraverts. In fact, the authors suggest thatintroverts engage other introverts in conversations focused inproblem talk while extraverts with extraverts engage in a widevariety of claims and topics. In this regards, Lieberman &Rosenthal (2001) assert that the power of dispositions to generatesituations and the transactional conceptions of extraversion andintroversion result to the aforementioned differences.
The articleprovides a comprehensive context and understanding to introversion asit discusses the effects of personality psychology to people. Inaddition, the examination of introverts and extraverts as establishedin discussions with strangers reveal the significance ofdispositional press in expressing personality. The article helps inunderstanding the differences between extraverts and introverts interms of conversational styles and content, which most studies haveignored. As such, the authors provide a comprehensive understandingof introverts thus, the article will allow in the development of acontextual brief on introversion. Conversation styles and contenthave demonstrated a huge difference in attainment and the way thebody works thus, the findings suggested may help in understandingthe specific alignments and disposition of introverts. As suggested,introverts commit to conversations that deal with problems, a casesupported by their low level of interaction and happiness.
Zelenski, J. M., Santoro, M. S., & Whelan, D. C. (2012). Wouldintroverts be better off if they acted more like extraverts?Exploring emotional and cognitive consequences ofcounterdispositional behavior. Emotion, 12(2),290-303
Like Lieberman &Rosenthal (2001), Zelenski, Santoro, & Whelan (2012) provide acontextual design on dispositional facets in understanding thebehavioral adjustments that introverts may cultivate. Here, theauthors claim that people enjoy acting in an extraverted manner, acase that applies across the introversion-extraversion dimension. Theauthors suggest that introverts may improve their happiness by actingmore in an extraverted manner, but such a behavioral adjustmentcreates potential costs that previous studies have failed toconsider. Using quantitative research and an empirical study, theauthors assess the dispositions of people to act extraverted and theassociated costs to such shifts. Here, the authors suggest thatacting in an extraverted manner creates hedonic benefits irrespectiveof disposition, which shows that introverts can benefit by actingextraverted while extraverts can benefit by adopting introvertedbehaviors. Here, the authors suggest that shifting to acounterdispositional behavior may have its benefits to extraverts orintroverts.
In this regards,the article demonstrate some important aspects to introverts that mayhelp in future research on the behaviors of introverts. The authorssuggest that dispositional extraversion is one of the best indicatorof predicting happiness, particularly when one operationalizehappiness as an experience of positive emotion thus, introverts canbenefit hugely if they adopt extraverted behaviors. In this regards,the authors provide a remarkable principle on the dynamic ofintroversion and how dispositional extraversion plays a predominantrole in helping introverts adjust. Like most studies, Zelenski,Santoro, & Whelan (2012) reveal that people do not develop orcultivate more benefits in acting introverted or extraverted thus,it is not better off or worse off to be more extraverted orintroverted since there exists benefits and costs to the two distinctdispositions. As such, the authors provide a remarkable research onunderstanding introversion and its associated facets. Given thedispositions of introverts, the authors suggest that cultivating adispositional design aligned to extraversion may help introverts, butit does not make the introverts better off.
Zelenski, J. M., Whelan, D. C., Nealis, L. J., Besner, C. M.,Santoro, M. S., & Wynn, J. E. (2013). Personality and affectiveforecasting: Trait introverts underpredict the hedonic benefits ofacting extraverted. Journal of personality and socialpsychology, 104(6), 1092-1108
In this article,the authors provide a contextual approach to explain why introvertscultivate the behavioral aspects they cultivate. As such, the authorstry to demonstrate that trait introverts have a misguided notion onforecasting due to personality differences. Research on dispositionalpersonality suggests that introverts can become happier if they actmore extraverted. However, by conducting a quantitative researchZelenski et al (2013) suggest that introverts have less accuracy,especially in overestimating the effects of associated with theirextraverted comportment. As such, the authors suggest that althoughintroverts can become happier by acting more extraverted, they cannotas they overestimate hedonic costs that do not materialize.
The authorsconduct five studies to understand the level of error amongintroverts in forecasting using student and lab approaches, andasking the participants to imagine acting extraverted. In thisregards, the article provides some interesting literature on the lackof behavioral adjustments among introverts. In addition, theperformance of regression analysis on the collected data demonstratesthat trait introverts enjoy acting more extraverted than in actingmore introverted. In fact, the authors reveal that the forecastingerror manifested in introverts explain the huge differences inpersonality. Here, the authors provide a good piece of literature todraw a contextual design on the way trait introverts unpredicthedonic benefits. Personality context and disposition acrossdifferent levels of introversion help in understanding introverts andcoupled with the insight gained in the article, the creation of abrief on introversion will become effective.

{Total 2 Weeks} Airlift 14th day box office collection has almost received same response compared to the passed day. Film in 2nd Week till 4th February 2016, is collecting such an impressive and huge income at box office which was unexpected by the film production and even by audience and critics. The film daily wise collection has making a profit figure of around 2 crore mark share and the film revenue daily is only seen with around 20-30 lakhs difference and that the most amazing thing as the income is not dropping down at all. Till the film income starts falling, the weekend days come and movie again gets some hike in its box office profit. The same happened on 2nd Thursday income.

OROVILLE — A Chico man accused of slitting another man's throat pleaded not guilty Wednesday in Butte County Superior Court and was set for trial.
Robert Morrison, 29, could face life in prison.
Morrison allegedly accused Jeffrey Smith, 48, of stealing his gun April 27 at Countryside Mobile Village in Chico, took out a knife and slashed the man's throat, District Attorney Mike Ramsey said.
The wound went deep into Smith's throat, Ramsey said.
When officers arrived, Smith was holding a bloody rag to his throat.
Ramsey said Morrison told officers, "He deserved it. I don't care, dude. That (expletive) deserved it."
Morrison is scheduled to go to trial Feb. 14 with a trial readiness conference Feb. 10. The defendant remains in custody at the Butte County Jail with a bail of $500,000.
Staff writer Katy Sweeny can be reached at 520-9790.

As I was reading the Word this morning, I was overwhelmed by how much our…
Tag: Faith
My day fills up quickly with phone calls, emails, school assignments, everyday hiccups like a skinned knee or chipped tooth, and social media, if I am honest. It is when I am here and CAUGHT UP instead of slowing down to SIT at Jesus's feet…it is HERE in these moments when I ALWAYS fall on my face.
My husband often day dreams about being a basketball star. I know this because he…
Hi. My name is Shannon Walker. I am three years clean today. No judgmental thoughts, comparing methods, or self-righteously questioning others' parental decisions today. No holding myself at a higher regard or looking down on other moms. Nope, those are LONG gone for me.
All of my gains, I consider a loss for the sake of Christ. Perhaps if I lived his, I would not seek justice for myself, nor would I yell to get my point across when my husband was speaking over me. Yup, that is what happened this morning over something so stupid.
Recently, I have been hurt by others gossiping about me. It is something we all endure from time to time. It is not fun not being "included" or being the one talked about, but isn't this what Jesus warned us of? (Philippians 3:7-11) Following Him guarantees we will never be the "in-crowd" nor the "cool kids", often even in Christian circles.
My three-year-old daughter often tells me "Mommy, I wuv you just the way you awr," and she really does too. She is a HUGE mommy's girl! It does not matter if I just disciplined her, expressed disappointment to her, or held her because she was sad. She always exclaims, "I want Momma!!" in ALL of these instances. Sometimes it confuses me, because it would make sense for her to cry for someone else especially after she is disciplined by me, (and Daddy would especially appreciate this). But, it is always the same, "I want Momma!!" Sometimes, this expression even comes with pointing at me until she feels my embrace.
Around that time and about 18 months into trying, I went to the doctor to have tests done. The doctor listened to me tell her how my period had never been normal, how I didn't always ovulate, etc. Then, she gave me some very disheartening news. She said it would be nearly impossible for me to get pregnant since I don't always ovulate. The reason was that this usually means your eggs aren't "healthy" or "whole", so she wanted to run more tests. This really broke my heart. I always wanted babies, and it NEVER occurred to me that I COULDN'T have them. I could not give the man I loved a baby of his own.. what kind of woman was I?
It was as I sat in that quiet, lonely ICU room that I started thinking, "How long does faith stay strong while suffering through hopeless trials? How long would MY faith stay strong?" A few days, a couple of weeks, several months, years, more than a decade? If I am honest with myself, my faith started to shake shortly after the news of my dad. The news just seemed extremely overwhelming and honestly just too much to bare. The fears of my youngest kids never remembering their Pepaw, the possibility that I may have spoken to my dad for the last time, words I should have said, things I should have thanked him for all flooded my mind at once. As I recently walked through those days of helplessly watching my dad suffer and striving to patiently wait for God's timing and purpose, I discovered that my faith only became stronger but NOT in my power.

This week the Telegram & Gazette begins running profiles of the candidates for Worcester School Commitee in this fall's election. All 13 candidates who are on the ballot for the city's Sept. 10 preliminary election were given an opportunity to answer a questionnaire.
Name: Jermoh Vainga Kamara
Occupation: Public health educator. More than five years of experience working in schools, mainly in developing countries such as the Dominican Republic, Ghana and Liberia. Also taught Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math (STEAM) as part of an after-school program for the White Plains Youth Bureau.
Political experience: I pushed the memo/bill to support community health workers' integration in the Health Equity Zone in Rhode Island.
Connection to schools: Graduate of Canterbury Street School (2004-2005), Sullivan Middle School (2005-2007), and South High Community School (2007-2011).
What are your top three platform issues?
Healthy schools and healthy students; teacher diversity; and coordinated K-12 STEAM and college readiness programs to attract all students and increase student outcomes.
What is an issue in the schools you feel should get more attention?
Worcester ranks the fifth highest among U.S. cities for having the most homeless youth. The disproportionate suspension rate and systemic racial and gender biases can significantly impact the overall social and mental health of our children and their families. The number of pregnant teens in Worcester is higher than the state average for Massachusetts. Therefore, coordinated wrap-around school health programs should get attention to ensure our children are safe in their learning environment.
Why should voters pick you to serve on the School Committee?
As someone who comes from a first-generation Liberian family that moved to the U.S. when I was 11, quality education was important to me then, as it is important to me now. Being elected to the School Committee is personal because I felt that the system was working against me, while on the other hand I knew that I had the power to change my life, and I did. I listen to similar stories told by many of our children and their parents in Worcester and it hurts me – I believe that everyone deserves the right to quality education and opportunities to help them reach their full potential. With my background in public health, I know that when education outcomes are equitable, positive health outcomes will follow. I will do whatever it takes to ensure our kids have better opportunities; I know that nothing is impossible with persistence, hard work and dedication.

Murphy, Thomas H. (ed.) / Wisconsin alumnus
Vol. 72, Number 7 (May 1971)
Weaver, John C.
Fellow alumni of Wisconsin, pp. 25-26
Page 25
The question posed by the Special Report in this edition of Wisconsin Alumnus magazine is a disturbing one: Are Americans Losing Faith in their Colleges? The very fact that the question is raised and requires a response is unsettling to all of us who place a high value on the educational experience. Nevertheless, events of the past decade have forcefully reminded us that institu- dons of higher education, like knowledge itself, are subject to continual critical analysis and must be adjusted in accordance with the demands of changing conditions. During the past several weeks, I have had the opportunity to talk with hundreds of Wisconsin men and women, and my overriding impression is that we Americans basically do believe in education like no other people in history. I think the con- cern at the moment really does not reflect a loss of faith in the educational idea; it is indignation over the perception that some young people have been abusing their educational opportunity and that perhaps educational W institutions have been too slow in taking a firm stand against those who seek to capture the universities and are willing to destroy academic freedom in the process. As members of the University family it is our responsibility -and not an easy task-to transform that indignation into understanding and confidence in the University's mission. Our University is a living thing---capable of responding to new stimuli and of adapting to altered conditions. When its "nerve endings" were scraped by abrasive challenges to the University's integrity, important changes were set in motion. They include: renewed emphasis on undergraduate teaching and learning; intensi- lied attention to curricular revision; new course offerings in environmental, urban and integrated liberal studies; programs for and about the disadvantaged; course restructuring that brings focus to contemporary and emerging social problems; significantly increased interaction between administrators, faculty and students on all campuses; and the establishment of clear guidelines for student conduct and refinement of disciplinary procedures, coupled with the demonstrated determination to preserve both academic freedom and the orderly conditions in which it may flourish. These and other initiatives within the University have generated a variety of positive reactions from students, faculty, alumni and interested citizens. There is, I am convinced, a subtle but inexorable renewal of "faith" in the University of Wisconsin. The signs of renewal are, for the most part, intangible; such things as an atmos- phere of mutual trust and confidence and an emerging spirit of optimism within the University community. There are other indications, however, which are so obvious they are easily overlooked. Enrollments, for example, continue to grow, thereby demonstrating the unflagging interest of Wisconsin youth in the unparalleled educational opportunities made available by the University. Alumni have shown their interest and affection for the University through their participation in the WAA. Life Membership enrollments in the Association lead it such groups in the nation. Private voluntary financial support, which helps raise the University to a level Of excellence, reached a record level last year. Gifts, grants and endowments from lulini, foundations, business enterprises and other individuals amounted to $17,297,336 in 1969-70. This total is more than three and one-half million dollars greater than was received from these sources five years earlier. Most Usuredly, an investment of this magnitude represents confidence in the University Ad its mission. Are Americans losing faith in their colleges? No, indeed! Not if the University of Wisconsin and its experience are an example. The University was reated by an act of faith-the Wisconsin Constitution-and is renewed S i %0usands of times each day by the acts of faith of students, faculty 1 ,4d citizens who rely on the University for a multitude of services and )POrtunities. The alumni and citizenry of Wisconsin do have faith in our University; and great University of Wisconsin is going to do everything possible to deserve repay that faith. Fellow Alumni of isconsin: ncerely, John C. Weaver President 25

The model itself has increased by weight. From 1.5 Mb (circa) to 5 Mb (circa). Into growing trend nowadays.
Many new details added.
Bomb-Bay has separated parts now and can be used for new animations.
New Gear is actually a work in progress. I want to give this model a decent gear.
Landing Lights too will be added.
The actual .ac file on GitHub is the latest 3D model version I worked on until last night without wheels.
I want to make Wings more realistic adding lights and many other fine details like separated brakes surfaces.
The cockpit is nowhere actually. So there's alot to do. The shut down engine sound failure will be fixed too.
Few screens taken into Blender shows the actual state of the job.
Starting the BUFF into FG for the first time right now looks like this
Press OK and go forward, it starts. Point of views need a fix too but the BUFF enter FlightGear finally

The Empire of Gold (MP3 CD)
Staff Reviews
I have relished every word of the Daevabad trilogy, and I'm heartbroken that this is the final installment. S. A. Chakraborty's world building is brilliant; her ability to blend Egyptian history, Middle Eastern mythology, Muslim beliefs, and her own fantastical inventions (including an entire complex history of war and political intrigue) is unmatched in contemporary fantasy writing. THE EMPIRE OF GOLD provides an immensely satisfying ending to Nahri, Ali, and Dara's stories. This will be a trilogy I return to again and again!— Kate
No series since George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire has quite captured both palace intrigue and the way that tribal infighting and war hurt the vulnerable the most. --Paste Magazine
The final chapter in the bestselling, critically acclaimed Daevabad Trilogy, in which a con-woman and an idealistic djinn prince join forces to save a magical kingdom from a devastating civil war.
Daevabad has fallen.
After a brutal conquest stripped the city of its magic, Nahid leader Banu Manizheh and her resurrected commander, Dara, must try to repair their fraying alliance and stabilize a fractious, warring people.
But the bloodletting and loss of his beloved Nahri have unleashed the worst demons of Dara's dark past. To vanquish them, he must face some ugly truths about his history and put himself at the mercy of those he once considered enemies.
Having narrowly escaped their murderous families and Daevabad's deadly politics, Nahri and Ali, now safe in Cairo, face difficult choices of their own. While Nahri finds peace in the old rhythms and familiar comforts of her human home, she is haunted by the knowledge that the loved ones she left behind and the people who considered her a savior are at the mercy of a new tyrant. Ali, too, cannot help but look back, and is determined to return to rescue his city and the family that remains. Seeking support in his mother's homeland, he discovers that his connection to the marid goes far deeper than expected and threatens not only his relationship with Nahri, but his very faith.
As peace grows more elusive and old players return, Nahri, Ali, and Dara come to understand that in order to remake the world, they may need to fight those they once loved . . . and take a stand for those they once hurt.

No easy way. Only sending "ap SSID PASSWORD" commands to each of the drones to connect them to one access point that'll be used to control the swarm. Then getting their IP addresses, sending to each of them commands in turn and distinguishing their answers by the source IP addresses.

New Inkjet Paper for Me
After using the Crane Museo Silver Rag since before it came out - I was able to get beta of the paper - I'm starting to use the Epson F Gloss Exhibition Paper for orders. I can't really use it for the stuff that normally would be done with roll paper, the larger prints, but so long as I don't mix papers in one order, I'm going for the Epson paper.
I know that we've come to a point where there are now lots of new fiber (darkroom-ish) papers being produced and I really can't test them all - nor do I see any reason to. The Epson F paper is excellent for the black and white prints and I like it very much for the color infrared work I've been doing. I think it's more expensive than the Silver Rag - but as I say - I like it very much.
You probably read this and say - but he doesn't tell what it is about the paper that he likes better. Hard to put my finger on it. The print looks more photographic than the silver rag prints. It has more of a "gleam" than the silver rag. Does that tell you anything - I don't know.
(In case you're wondering about the metal hinges - that's how I flatten the rolled paper).
Craig writes: "I received a promo package of the Epson paper and found it too warm. Recently I tried Calumet Brilliant Museum glossy paper. Its very similar to the Crane Museo Silver and I think cheaper in price."
And this is what I should have included: I'm printing on the Epson 4800 and Epson 7800 with K3 inks. I'm using what they call the advanced black and white driver.
In other words - your results may differ with different printers or different workflows.

Cardiothoracic Surgery
The prevalence and clinical spectrum of acute mesenteric venous thrombosis (AMVT) in Pakistan is largely unknown. The authors report two patients with acute mesenteric, portal and inferior vena cava venous thrombosis confirmed on CT imaging. The diagnoses were established within 24 hours of presentation and both patients were successfully treated with therapeutic heparin during hospital admission and continued on oral warfarin because of hypercoagulable state. The protocol that we currently use is evidence based and is leading to optimal outcome.

Senior Living Community Reputations Succeed or Fail Based on Quality of Their Staff, J.D. Power Finds
Life Care Services Ranks Highest in Resident Satisfaction among Senior Living Communities
COSTA MESA, Calif.: 24 Oct. 2019 — The key to winning the hearts and minds of senior living community residents and their families is ensuring the facility has a great staff that communicates clearly, knows personal details about residents and makes them feel like they are part of a community. According to the J.D. Power 2019 U.S. Senior Living Satisfaction Study,SM released today, a large number of senior living facilities are delivering on those criteria regularly, but many still have a great deal of room for improvement.
"It should come as little surprise that senior living facility residents and their families are looking for a true community experience," said Greg Truex, Managing Director of J.D. Power Health Intelligence. "An engaged, attentive staff plays a major role in creating that environment. However, with one-fifth of residents surveyed for the study saying that they were never given an in-person orientation to their community and more than half saying the staff does not know anything about them personally, there is room for industry-wide improvement."
Following are some key findings of the 2019 study:
- Delivering satisfying resident experiences is key to referrals and retention: Higher overall resident satisfaction scores are directly correlated with increased referrals and reduced turnover. Among those residents whose overall satisfaction with the community facility is 900 or higher (on a 1,000-point scale), 91% say they "definitely will" stay in the community and 90% would recommend the community to friends and family. Conversely, when satisfaction scores are lower than 600, just 6% of residents say they will remain in the community and 9% would recommend it.
- Community staff is critical in decision-making process: When looking at all the factors that make up the senior living experience, the quality of staff and service is crucial. Nearly half (45%) of residents say the quality of staff and services led them to choosing their community. This ranks second only behind convenient location (54%).
- In-person orientation plays major role in building feeling of community: In-person orientation meetings are a key part of making residents feel like a welcome part of the community. Overall satisfaction among residents who participate in an in-person orientation averages 146 points higher than among those who have not had an orientation. Still, 20% of residents say that they never received an in-person orientation.
- Personalized attention matters: Overall satisfaction scores climb 89 points when staff members perform six or more positive tasks that show they care for residents on a personal level. These include knowing personal details about the resident; communicating clearly; offering to assist with issues; and greeting residents in a friendly manner. Industry-wide, just 53% of residents say community staff deliver on these criteria.
Study Ranking
Life Care Services ranks highest with an overall satisfaction score of 843. Sunrise Senior Living (794) ranks second and Five Star Senior Living (787) ranks third.
The J.D. Power 2019 U.S. Senior Living Satisfaction Study measures resident and family satisfaction with the nation's largest providers of residential communities for seniors. Overall satisfaction is measured across seven factors of the resident experience (listed in order of importance): services and activities; community staff; food and beverage; new resident orientation; resident cost; community and grounds; and resident apartment unit. The study is based on responses from 3,021 residents (or their decision-maker) living in an independent, assisted-living or memory care community within the previous five years. It was fielded in June through August 2019.

Issue: The Node-RED Socket-IO (listen) node doesn't function
Resolution: Set the correct
httpRoot variable and associated nginx proxy configuration
Discussion: Socket-IO is an important technology for time-sensitive I/O without CPU intensive polling. The current Node-RED settings.js hasn't been correctly informed of the /node-red httpRoot that the nginx proxy enforces.
This has resulted in a more complex nginx configuration to handle the required /node-red/comms Socket-IO path specifically, and blocks other Socket-IO traffic configured using the Node-RED Socket-IO node.
Node-RED not being informed of the correct httpRoot causes other subtle problems such as the inbound HTTP node not displaying the correct httpRoot, but the biggest we've found is breaking inbound Socket-IO functionality.
Files to change
/usr/share/nxtio/services/node-red/settings.js line 89:
httpRoot: '/node-red',
Once Node-RED has the correct httpRoot setting, the nginx proxy can be simplified to combine both http and socketio under the same path, while retaining authorization requirements:
Full /etc/nginx/sites-available/http/opto/node-red.nginx.conf file:
location /node-red {
return 301 https://$http_host/node-red/;
location /node-red/ {
error_page 400 401 404 = @error401;
auth_request /auth/access/user/confirm;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:1880/node-red/;
# WebSocket connections
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
groovEPIC: This is also an issue with Node-RED on the groovEPIC, but we have been able to get around it using ssh. The ssh license allowed us to debug this issue and provide a resolution on the groovEPIC, but we have no mechanism of resolving this on the groovRIO, so the issue is filed under groovRIO.
Once this is validated by the Opto22 support team, would it be possible to request an OptoSupport RSS on the groovRIO before a patched update is available?

Local, state and federal officials got a glimpse of the grim reality along Lake County's coast on a recent visit.
Mentor leaders met with U.S. Rep. Dave Joyce, R-Bainbridge Township, and State Rep. Jamie Callender, R-Concord Township, Aug. 15 in an effort to emphasize the need for financial assistance battling erosion exacerbated by rising Lake Erie.
Mentor has 3,300 feet of shoreline abutting its lagoons marina and preserve. It has been well-documented that the city has lost more than 6 acres to erosion in the last decade. Beach, access trails, roadways and other coastal infrastructure have been lost or damaged.
Protection projects are hundreds of thousands of dollars, outside funds are hard to come by and every community along the lakeshore is in the same boat.
"Obviously, Mentor City officials are doing the best they can under the circumstances," Joyce said. "We share the coastline; it's imperative that we share the cost of the solution."
There might be some hope on the horizon with a recent initiative involving area municipalities banding together in a special improvement district aimed at aiding lakefront property owners with erosion-related expenses.
In addition, the city of Euclid proved that, under the right conditions, federal assistance is a real possibility for protecting the shoreline.
Finding funding
While communities like Mentor have had to pour millions in taxpayer money into erosion-control projects within the last few years, Euclid landed the first Pre Disaster Mitigation program funds from the Federal Emergency Management Agency for an erosion project on the Great Lakes.
The city scored more than $2.67 million toward constructing improvements such as stone revetments to stabilize the coast as part of its $30 million Waterfront Improvement Project.
City Council on Aug. 19 authorized an agreement to accept the funds, for which Euclid applied in fiscal year 2017.
"It was a very involved application with our team at the city, waterfront engineering consultants SmithGroup and the Ohio Emergency Management Office in Columbus," Euclid Community Projects Manager Allison Lukacsy-Love said. "We were confident it was a competitive candidate for funding because there were other public funds from the state and county already raised, and the plan had been thoroughly engineered and simulated in a wave tank so we could demonstrate the ability to get the project built and prove it would be a benefit."
The project also was attractive to FEMA because of the number of residents who will gain from the erosion mitigation, she said.
She noted that, while protecting private properties, the waterfront improvement is part of a public access project where long-term easements and city land make up the three-quarter-mile stretch of shoreline being stabilized.
"There is very little, if any, public funding out there for private property owners to apply without exchanging use of their land through easements or through a donation to a public entity," she said.
Hello, SID
Euclid officials are keeping a close eye on the special improvement district in the works in Lake County.
Ohio Senate Bill 51 — co-sponsored last year by Sen. John Eklund, R-Munson Township — took effect in March and allows property owners to finance erosion protection through a voluntary special assessment on their property.
Joining the SID would enable contiguous communities to borrow money and pay it back over up to 30 years with an assessment on their property tax bill.
The Lake County Ohio Port & Economic Development Authority has engaged leaders in all 12 lakefront communities in the county, but no one has officially signed on yet.
"We're still formulating those documents," said Authority Director of Coastal Development Peter Zahirsky. "We still have to identify a lender. The legislation did not create a public pot of money."
North Perry Village officials plan to designate their village hall property along the lake as part of the SID. The community has lost at least 60 feet of land at village hall alone, Mayor Ed Klco said.
"It's a countywide issue," he said. "If we form a group, I think we'll be a lot stronger in the long run than just individually."
Other efforts
Along with supporting the SID, the Port Authority has an ongoing partnership with Madison Township to regrade the bluff at Stanton Park to slow the erosion of the shoreline, being lost rapidly.
The city of Willoughby is looking at participating in the SID as well as creating a comprehensive plan for Osborne park in an attempt to obtain funding for emergency repairs identified last winter.
The city got quotes for immediate and temporary repair work totaling about $415,000.
"The cost would have been about half of our 2019 capital budget," used for police cars, service equipment, etc., Mayor Bob Fiala said.
The city of Mentor twice has sought a Coastal Management Assistance Grant from the Ohio Department of Natural Resources to aid in developing a plan to use natural materials such as fallen trees to help preserve shoreline and restore beach habitat at Mentor Lagoons Nature Preserve. The city will be making a third attempt this year.
Buyer beware
Various federal, state and local regulations require residents to comply with certain conditions in order to obtain permission to build structures along the lake, which is under federal jurisdiction.
State officials have been cautious about allocating money for use on private property, noted state Rep. John Rogers, D-Mentor-on-the-Lake.
"There's an inherent risk with owning lakefront property because of the history of erosion," he said.
Last year, Rogers attempted to add $500,00 to the state capital budget to place erosion controls at Overlook Beach Park in his community, but it didn't make the cut.
"I'll probably do the same thing this year," he said.
Erosion is a concern not merely for private property owners but also the community at large, Zahirsky said.
"Erosion tends to happen quickly when large chunks of land suddenly fall into the water, which is a safety issue for anyone who happens to be standing on that land at that moment," he said. "Erosion (also) can put foreign objects in the lake … which can lead to issues of compromised water quality."

2016 Real Estate Trends
Since 2015 was good year for the real estate market, you can expect 2016 to be even better. The Northern Virginia area has weathered the ups and downs of the past few years without as many difficulties as most other regions in the county, which left us in a stronger position to take advantage of the return to a favorable real estate climate
1. Return to Normal
Expect a healthy growth in home sales and prices – at a slower pace than in 2015. "This slowdown is not an indication of a problem—it's just a return to normalcy," writes Jonathan Smoke, realtor.com®'s chief economist. In addition, new constructions will also be returning to more traditional levels, and prices rise at more normal rates consistent with a more balanced market
2. Generational Buying Trends Shape Up
Millennials or young adults' presence on the housing market has been largely anticipated for years, but 2016 may finally be the year they make a move. They are expected to continue to be a major buying pool in 2016 with the majority of buyers between ages 25 and 34 who are expected to be first time home buyers.
3. New Home Construction Focuses on Affordability
One aspect of housing that has not recovered yet has been single-family construction.
Builders have been faced with higher land costs, limited labor, and concerns bout the demand of the entry level market. As such, they have shifted to constructing more higher-priced homes, which has caused new-home prices to rise significantly faster than existing-home prices. In 2016, they likely will shift to more affordable product to cater to the entry-level buyers
4. Higher Mortgage Rates
Mortgage rates went up in 2015 and also went back down. Expect a similar pattern in 2016.
The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage will likely end 2016 about 60 basis points higher than today's level. Higher rates will drive monthly payments higher, and debt to income ratios will also go higher. Markets with the highest prices will see that higher rates will result in fewer sales. The effect will be minimal across the U.S as the move to higher rates will spur more existing homeowners to sell and buy before rates go even higher
5. Higher Rent
Already unaffordable rents will go up more than home prices. More than 85% of the nations's markets have rent costs that exceed 30% of the income of renting households. Because of this, it is more affordable to buy in the majority of the U.S.

Bonnie Drinkwater is a holiday friend of Val Pollard.
She arrives in Emmerdale, having met Val in Cancún, Mexico, and her stories of her and Val's drunken holiday antics soon annoy Val but interest Val's husband Eric, who Bonnie starts to flirt with. Val then spends more and more time with Bonnie to keep her away from Eric. After a few days, Bonnie tells Val that during the holiday, Val slept with a much younger man called Derek, a name she has tattooed on her back, although Val does not remember this. Val then feels blackmailed because if she tells Bonnie to leave the village, she fears she will tell Eric of her affair. Later that day, she gets drunk with Doug Potts, whose wife had just said she wanted a divorce, and she tells him to start living his life, causing him to buy a very expensive car the following day.
Val's son, Paul Lambert, orders Bonnie to ring her daughter so she can leave, but later discovers that she rung the Talking Clock. Bonnie then confesses that she has no daughter, and is a spinster who lives in a one-bedroom flat in Barnsley, and Val is her only friend. She had also made up Val sleeping with Derek. Seeing her as a pathetic, clinger-on, Paul tells her to leave the village. Shortly after she drives away in Doug's car, and then spends the night with him at the Vicarage. The following day he tries to get rid of her, but is only successful when Ashley Thomas tells her that if she is to stay at the Vicarage it will have to be in separate rooms and with no alcohol. It is later revealed Doug had contracted crabs from Bonnie.
