Recent figures show that almost two thirds of young adult men and women — especially millennials — are choosing to just live together instead of getting married. But it makes you wonder...why is this trend becoming more and more popular in spite of there being numerous health and emotional benefits to being married?
Plus, besides the statistical health benefits, there are plenty of other factors that you would think would encourage couples to marry as well. For instance, if one of you is hospitalized and you're not married, the other has no legal say in their care. In terms of a breakup, your partner could walk out tomorrow and take everything — and there would legally be nothing you could do.
I mean, isn't that a scary thought?
But if you really think about the pros of getting married, then you have to think about the cons too. Because, believe it or not, there are tons of reasons people choose not to marry.
For one, you're not held accountable for your partner's horrible credit practices. Their debt will never directly effect you. And then, of course, if you break up, divorce — and all of the financial burdens that come along with it — are nonexistant.
Let's be honest — if things don't work out, it's WAY easier to end. Maybe not so much emotionally, but at least you save the money you would have spent on a divorce attorney.
That being said, why — in this modern day and age — do we STILL choose to marry the people we love?
Tradition? Is it because we still consider marriage the ultimate devotion to someone? Maybe that binding contract is a safety measure against getting out of the relationship too easily.
Are we driven biologically and spiritually to desire that sacred bond that marriage traditionally represents?
This question raises a ton of debate, with pros and cons on both sides, and our YourTango Experts debate this concept in great detail in this video. Melanie Gorman (YourTango Experts Senior VP) leads the discussion and gets a variety of interesting perspectives, including opinions from author Areille Ford, marriage and family therapist Dr. Foojan Zeine, marriage and couples counselor Rhoberta Shaler and life coach Renee Jain.
These experts have SO much more to offer on this and other relationship topics. Please visit their websites or contact Arielle, Foojan, Rhoberta or Renee directly if you're looking to learn more after the video.

High Blood Pressure (hypertension) is a health issue which affects over 78 million adults in the United States, but less than half of these individuals have this problem under control. In 2015, the Birmingham YMCA became one of seven sites invited to participate in a blood pressure management program. Participants meet with a "healthy heart ambassador" at the Y who regularly check blood pressure levels, answer questions, and make a wellness plan. Participants also have access to nutrition seminars with advice on lowering sodium intake, and how to shop, cook and prepare healthy meals.
Participants will record their blood pressure readings using an easy-to-use, self-selected tracking tool. The Y will provide options for participants who need a home blood pressure monitor.
New classes beginning in February 2017.

In the IT industry is the latest software already outdated on the day of its release. For many does "stable" equal "old", and yet is what is being considered as old and outdate by IT people the current and latest standard for others. We've seen this with Microsoft beginning with Windows (where companies got stuck on MS/DOS) and it's happening with Linux, too, and unless project leaders are aware of it, which of course not many are, is this even worse than with closed source. At least with closed source is profit a driving factor and when you cannot sell your software then you start looking for why this is. But open source moves forward as bold as possible. When you then see companies who have switched to Linux, but then are stuck on old distros with Firefox 11, which fails to open every second website (while the latest version currently is at 55) and thus regret their switch to Linux, perhaps then you'd begin to understand. Or take the WannaCry attack, which hit the NHS here in Britain quite hard, because they're mostly stuck on Windows XP and old hardware. The NHS would be safer if they ran Linux, but at the pace they are capable of maintaining and spending money on IT (instead of spending it on medical equipment and salaries), would they only be looking at another massive problem.
I'm sure starshipeleven will troll over such issues as only he can (because he doesn't have such issues *lol*) and while it's funny to see him do it do I feel I'm wasting my time here when I'm explaining the problems others have with the IT industry.

text: Flora Annie Steel nee Webster (who also wrote under the pseudonym A Fellow Mortal) (1847-1929) was an English writer. In 1867 she married a member of the Indian civil service, and for the next twenty-two years lived in India, chiefly in the Punjab, with which most of her books are connected. She was interested in relating to all classes of Indian society. The birth of her daughter gave her a chance to interact with local women and learn their language. She encouraged the production of local handicrafts and collected folk-tales. Her interest in schools and the education of women gave her a special insight into native life and character. In 1889 the family moved back to Scotland, and she continued her writing there. Her most ambitious effort was her novel, On the Face of the Waters (1896), describing incidents of the Indian Mutiny. She also wrote a popular history of India. Her other works include: Tales of the Punjab (1894), The Adventures of Akbar (1913), English Fairy Tales (1918) and The Law of the Threshold (1924).

In this conversation Transitioning into the Third Act, we have arrived at the final phase of the model INTEGRATION. It is the obvious consequence of waking up to your new circumstance and wondering what is next, searching the landscape for what the new possibilities are, releasing old habits that no longer serve you and de-cluttering your life, and breaking through to see a new vision for your life emerging.
INTEGRATION feels like a happy, contented place to land.
As I look at this from my perspective I am finding that INTEGRATION takes time to achieve and in some ways, I wonder if it really ever happens, or if it does, if it is only temporary. At the moment it is an elusive target.
Like any model of change and transition, the stages are rarely linear meaning that you circle around. You have this magical AHA moment where you realize that you have this blank canvas before you and you get to decide what masterpiece you paint. Cool! The search begins. But does the search ever end? If you and I are true to ourselves, we may want to exercise perpetual curiosity, keeping the search open. Just sayin'.
And then the struggle – the de-cluttering of one's life. Okay, clearly this happens in layers. If I have learned anything over the last few weeks, it is that clearing one layer simply opens another layer, opens another layer and so on. The perfect metaphor for me has been our decision to place our house on the market, understanding that we are choosing to downsize and simplify. Seventeen years in one location, forty-four years of marriage, and what do you have – more stuff than you can imagine. An interesting note here is that I have always complemented myself on my ability to de-clutter. Guess what – I forgot to look in the corners. And isn't this just like life!
And then there is Breakthrough when we begin to see the possibilities for what we want emerging. Layers of clarity dust away the blurred edges of a future vision. As the edges sharpen, it sometimes means going back to the Search for more information. Occasionally you can see you are standing in your own way so you need more de-cluttering and attitude adjustment. The process is circular.
This enhanced understanding of transitioning into the Third Act is helpful. Change and transition is a dynamic process, it is never-ending and if we are honest with ourselves, it is probably what keeps us alive and engaged.
So now what?
Integration is the time to create a plan of action. What is it you want? What has been highlighted for you through the other phases that you now wish to pursue. Unlike other times in your life, you may not need to identify specific goals however, you may wish to declare your intentions. For example:
"I am engaged and inspired; I am attracting opportunities that build from my strengths and interests. I am open to exploring new possibilities for learning and expressing my great gifts."
In terms of goals, "In the next four weeks I will identify 1-2 possible opportunities for me to explore; I plan to sign up for a course in creative writing in January; and so on". Goals have a concrete action or outcome.
And then there is work – the roadSIGNS Coach continues to be Open for Business and I have yet to grow weary of work. There are days where I say I will pull back and stop and then a roadSIGN appears which suggests 'Not Yet'. It appears that an essential part of my Third Act will be to continue teaching, facilitating and coaching, building on everything I have learned over the last 20 years and expanding the work.
Interesting, in simply writing these few words, it feels valid and true. So it would seem that one of my intentions for moving forward is as follows,
I am Open for Business. I am facilitating and coaching. I am expanding my work into the Third Act of my life.
Now this feels like integration.
I would be interesting to hearing from my readers on what has become clear to you in this journey.
Until Next Time,
This past week I offered my first workshop 'Thriving in the Third Act'. This is part of my integration, the knowing that I would like to share this journey with others, provide a bit of a framework for living a healthy and engaging Third Act and to continue learning.
If anyone would like to join in on this journey, you need only to notify me. It is my plan to begin offering a Thriving in the Third Act Program in 2018. This may be after all the dust settles with our eminent move, however, it is an idea that lights me up. Who's in?

A former Rydal Penrhos pupil returned to lend her support to an ongoing academic initiative run by Sixth Formers.
Dr Bahijja Raimi-Abraham was the special guest lecturer at the latest Scientific Society lecture, which took place in the Carnegie Room on Tuesday, April 17.
She is currently a Lecturer in Pharmaceutics at King's College London and graduated with an MPharm degree from the University of East Anglia (UEA), School of Pharmacy in 2007.
Her lecture will be on the topic of "Is Pharmacy for You?" where Dr Raimi-Abraham discussed her path into the profession, her career so far and the research she has undertaken.
This was followed by a brief question and answer session relating to all things STEM.
During her visit, she also got the chance to visit some former teachers, in addition to speaking with Alumni and Development director Sarah Ritchie.
She said: "I thoroughly enjoyed giving the Scientific Society Lecture at Rydal Penrhos School.
"The pupils asked a lot of inquisitive questions and it was great to see so many interested in pursuing careers in STEM.
"It was lovely to be back at the school, so many memories!
"It did feel a little strange giving a talk in the Carnegie Room. I believe the last time I was there was to take my GCSE English Speaking and Listening exam many (many) moons ago."

South Londons Henry Wu makes his HoTep debut with the Negotiate Ep, his most comprehensive release to date.
Spanning five cuts the Ep journeys through loose soulful grooves, dusty fingered beats and bumpy analog house. Bringing that redlight, basementality throughout, title track 'Just Negotiate' featuring Simeon Jones on vocals moves above street level, adding bitter sweet dancefloor/radio vibes to proceedings.
On the whole.... Some abstract jazz type sh*t!

A side note, I thought Zanes insight into Tom's feelings on coffee were interesting; it wasn't my first take on it, looking back towards the past but more just the appreciation of a good cup of coffee, savoring the refills, etc. and a full cup versus the more intense but short lived pleasure of an espresso. cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This recipe is great for pregnant females, nursing females, babies, sick/weak hamsters, and elderly hamsters, or as an occasional treat for any hamster.
(note: This is just what I do…you can alter the ingredients, add ingredients, and/or change the measurements as desired. You can also freeze or refrigerate the recipe for extended use.)
- 1 tbsp of plain Oats
- 1/2 tbsp of low/fat free milk
- 1/2 tbsp of quality canned puppy or kitten food (I use canned Science Diet Chicken Recipe Puppy Growth)
- 1-2 drops of liquid vitamins specific for hamsters
- 1/2 tbsp of shredded carrots and/or broccoli (or any other safe veggie)
- a pinch of wheat germ
- add some clear unflavored Pedialyte for additional hydration if desired
Enjoy! (your hamster, not you)

That being said, there is still a lot to like about Automata. The good Platinum showed up this time so the combat is smooth and responsive. Enemy variety is low, but again, I have not played for that long. Skill customization is a deep, dark hole that I have already fallen into, weighing the benefits of being able to see my own hit points versus doing slightly more damage. It is brilliant and insidious.
The game is also not shy regarding where it pulls some of its mechanics: there is some Souls in here. From the moment you press start the game warns you that there is no auto-save. There is an in game FAQ that explains that dying means losing all of your physical items, that they need to be retrieved on your next life, and that dying on the way to your old corpse equals fuck you, thank you for playing.
I did not drop it like it was hot because, while dying is a very bad thing, I have not felt in danger of doing so yet. Recovery items are cheap enough and the combat itself is forgiving enough that
Nier was bizarre and obtuse, at least least on the first play through when you could not understand what enemies were saying. Automata plays its hand early, with robots that scream in fear as you approach and beg you to stop killing them. 2B is slightly disturbed but not enough so to stop carving a swath of oily destruction though hundreds of them. That will come back to bite her, I assume.
It's good. It's really good. Now if only Tekken 7 didn't come out on Friday. I care more about that game than Injustice 2, a title that I have already forgotten about.

This works notably nicely for chartered flights, as they typically have spare seats to fill, and the publication will preserve you knowledgeable about final minute flight sales. Tour operators providing final-minute flights from Boston may help pre-e book your tour on this mesmerizing journey.
I used to be also overwhelmed by the number of flights to choose from on a daily basis and was too flustered to arrange our options. Signing up for price alerts is another good way to find last minute flights, depending on the place you are flying from. Flag carrying airlines like British Airways typically release low-cost flights months upfront, with cheap international flights changing into obtainable 5 and a half months earlier than departure.
But the middle of attraction in Boston stays the house venue of Boston Purple Sox – Fenway Park. With super reasonably priced pricing on last minute airfares and final minute hotels , you won't have to worry about breaking the financial institution. After you've got secured Chicago low-cost flights, it is possible for you to to remain wherever you need.
Tour operators reserving last minute Boston flights might enable you to ebook your Outdated Town Trolley Tour. In addition to the occasion above, there was a strong sense group, camaraderie, and support among the lots of of travelers attempting for a similar flights.
Looking out on the seventh April for a last minute flight from the UK, I discovered I might go to Copenhagen £35 return if I may fly from London and was versatile with dates. Some package deal holiday firms sell off final minute trips for an enormous discount when their prospects can no longer travel.

Yes, but it's not a good idea. While beet greens are not toxic, they can cause or complicate other medical issues with your canine because the vegetable contains some compounds that can be harmful.
While packed with vitamins and minerals, beet greens also contain calcium oxalate, which, over time, can lead to kidney and bladder stones. While having stones isn't fatal, they are painful and their removal may require surgery, which is always a risk for dogs. Other leafy vegetables similar to beet greens that also contain calcium oxalate and should be avoided by dogs prone to kidney or bladder stones are Swiss chard, kale, leeks, okra, parsley, quinoa, collard greens, and roots of beets.
In small doses, beet greens (and other calcium oxalate-containing vegetables) should not harm your dog, however, given the wide variety of options that can be given as treats, most experts suggest feeding your canine something else as a treat.
Cucumber, carrots, and green beans are each guilt-free options that are healthy for dogs.

How to Play
Player sit in a circle. The first player initiates play to their right by saying "Ooooh" accompanied by appropriate fisting movements with their left hand. The player next to them can continue play to the right by saying "Oooh" and fisting to the right; change direction by crossing hands across their chest whilst saying (in their best German porn star voice) "Das ist good, Yah"; or skip a person by standing up with both hands raised above their head and saying "Up de pooper". Other players have the same options to control the direction of play. The game invariably gets louder (and more orgasmic) as time goes on. Players consume two fingers everytime they get it wrong.

Because I am concerned about fiscal responsibility, I am hesitant to advocate keeping taxes low. Nevertheless, as my colleague Shawn Ritenour emphasized in his blog, restoring fiscal responsibility while also promoting a prosperous economy requires cutting government spending, not raising taxes.
Raising taxes from the current level would have harmful consequences in any case, but those consequences are exacerbated by the fact that we are in a severe recession (some say depression). The main problem with raising tax rates is not that it will lead to a reduction in consumption and demand. If anything it will lead to increased consumption, though by government agencies and recipients of government transfer payments instead of the people who earned the money through their labor.
The more serious problem for the economy is how taxes influence production. When a greater share of each dollar earned is taxed away, it reduces the incentive to earn, whether through working additional hours, hiring more workers, or investing in capital. This problem is more serious for those in higher tax brackets, who are more likely to own businesses and have discretionary time and money that they could invest producing more goods and services. It is not spending that leads to economic prosperity, but greater production of what people value, which depends on entrepreneurs having confidence about the future direction of the economy and an expectation of being rewarded for taking risks. This is the key to an economic recovery that will restore prosperity while preserving freedom.
It is doubtful that raising tax rates on individuals with incomes over $200,000 ($250,000 for married couples), as proposed by the president, would lead to a reduction in tax revenue, but it will not lead to a very big increase. Thus if the big spenders currently in control of Congress really care about fiscal responsibility they will let the lower tax rates on the middle class expire as well. This would lead to an increase in revenue that is at least two or three times as large as from increasing taxes only on the those earning more than $200,000, who make up less than 5 percent of households.
Raising taxes on the middle class may actually have a less harmful effect on economic growth and prosperity in the long run than raising taxes on the wealthy, since work and investment by the middle class is likely less responsive to tax rates than that of the wealthy. Nevertheless, uncertainty about which tax rates will be allowed to increase and which will not also hinders economic recovery. Even if the president and Congress say they do not intend to raise taxes on the middle class, their unwillingness to bring spending under control leaves many of us expecting that Congress might raise those taxes out of fiscal necessity. This uncertainty discourages entrepreneurs from investing in capital to expand production of goods and services demanded by the middle class.
A clear commitment on the part of Congress and the administration to extend the Bush tax cuts across the board would remove some of the uncertainty and lead to greater investment and job creation. While such a commitment is not sufficient to address the looming fiscal problems faced by our government, it would be a step in the right direction.

Hi everybody,
I discovered Voobly today and was looking forward to playing online, but I have a problem: everytime i join a game and it starts, it stops in the main menue (I think it should skip forward to multiplayer--> lan/direct ip?). furthermore, I can't use my mouse when I'm ingame, it is stuck in the middle and jumps right back there when I try to move it.
Would be nice if someone could help,

Try this first:
uninstall voobly. del the folder from programs. del all cookies and temp files.
reboot the pc.
install this free app: [You must login to view link]
do the cleaner and registry clean ups. d/load voobly. re-install.
it wouldn't hurt to uninstall/install your aom/aot as well

Thanks for the answer first of all, but it sadly didn't help, I did everything you told me but I still have the same problem. I tried it on my other PC today and I have the same problem there. The AoT version is the same.

Make sure you have all the programs closed, beside Voobly, when Voobly launchs AoT, don't click anything and it should open the correct page. If you click anything while Voobly is launching the game, you will be stuck on the main menu view.

Mmm good idea, LNC.
@ vertigox, make sure when the game launches, you have the voobly room selected up on your screen and aren't clicking other windows while aot is launching.

I tried it, closed everything besides the main lobby and the window from the game I hosted, still have the same problem :/
What I didn't mention until now is that I have Nottuds Mod installed, but I discovered voobly from strangestrike's videos and he uses it to, so that should't be the problem.

Remove the mod and try it again.
-Also have you ever manage to get a game played on Voobly?
-Where you ever able to play on ESO?
-Can you get a screen shot of the view your stuck on?
-When your stuck on the main menu, is a button f****ing?

Ok I know the problem now. When you start a game with Voobly, the mouse is moved by the programm to click on multiplayer and lan/direct ip automatically. If you have Nottuds superpack installed, the Menue looks different, the buttons are on the bottom of the screen and not in the middle, so the cursor tried to click on multiplayer but there was no button.
I'd really like to have a few benefits of the mod, it showed me how many villagers I had on each ressource and i could rotate the buildings. are there mods which do the same thing but don't change the main menue?

If you want to keep the mod and still play in voobly, go to your aom directory, open data folder and remove uipregamenew (both files).

If you have Nottuds Superpack all you need to do is click in the options at the top of the game you are in and select 'Start in Singleplayer Menu'
Then manually go into Multiplayer and Direct IP, you should see the hosted game there, if you are the host, click host and they will join you

Absolut Gives Consumers a Virtual Night Out With EDM Artist Deadmau5
In its VR video game
Absolut is looking to connect with a very specific group of consumers in its latest campaign, and it's not your everyday vodka drinker. Instead, the brand is searching for early adopters of technology who also enjoy good music to experiment with its new virtual reality video game with a special appearance from artist deadmau5.
Absolut's virtual reality game, simply called Absolut deadmau5, fits nicely with the brand's existing "Absolut Nights" campaign, which centers around the idea of spontaneous, adventurous nights out. After downloading the app—which will be available in all major app stores including iOS, Android and Samsung—users start the game in deadmau5's garage helping the artist pick out the best car to get him to his upcoming gig. Players then have to maneuver through different live-action obstacles to ensure deadmau5 gets to his gig on time.
"[Absolut] wanted to get outside of the normal commercial cycle of our regular advertising and media promotions," Afdhel Aziz, head of Absolut Labs, told Adweek of the brand's latest work.
The game, which features live-action shots and motion-capture footage, is meant to show fans of both the brand and the artist what a night out with deadmau5 is like. As an avid gamer himself, the artist partnered closely with Absolut on the project, even asking for his Instagram-famous cat, Meowingtons, to be featured in the game.
Absolut wants to use the game as a way to give fans real experiences they might not otherwise have the opportunity to take part in. To accomplish that, the game ends with fans being transported back into a live-action VR scene standing next to deadmau5 in his DJ booth as he performs.
"Every brand needs to start thinking about how to create experiences, whether they are digital experiences or physical experiences that are really either delightful or useful," Aziz said. He argued that with the rise of ad blockers and the shift away from conventional TV to platforms like Hulu and Netflix, "brands need to work harder in order to create moments of engagement."
Along with the game, fans can also purchase their very own limited edition deadmau5 Google Cardboard headsets online for $17.95. Aziz said he hopes the headsets will help Absolut Labs "offset some of the costs" the brand put into making the game. "It turns marketing from a cost center into a profit center," Aziz added.

With advanced apologies to those that beg to differ, but I am a Marine Corp brat.
Alternative New Media for the Gulf South
With advanced apologies to those that beg to differ, but I am a Marine Corp brat.
Yes I can verify the girls are quite the litigious bunch!
This book is typical of a lot of anti-gun attempts at literacy; packed with false claims and sloppy logic. The author has a poor understanding of US firearms law and an even worse knowledge of the facts behind gun politics in America. For example, he claims that the 1994 Crime Bill banned firearms dealers from selling high capacity magazines.
In fact, the law only restricted the importation and new production of such magazines. All high capacity magazines imported or made in the US before 1994 continue to be lawfully sold in America.
This may seem like an odd technicality, but the author is an attorney and should have been able to properly research and understand the law.
There are a number of compelling books that make arguments in support or opposition to firearms ownership, and groups like the NRA, this is not one of them.
If you are rabidly anti-gun and just want to be spoon fed lies that sound good, this is the book for you. If you are pro-gun or perhaps you'd like to know more before forming an opinion, don't waste your time with this lousy book.
Let's circle Mr Abel and guns for now and save the more there for later.
Here are two oldies but goodies to go along with the Eric Paulsen lawsuit against State Farm. Continue reading "I'm diggin' up bones, exhuming things that everyone needs to know….."

Today's delicious recipe is offered up by the team at Pique Tea [1]. I've become a big fan (and proud affiliate) of Pique Tea's products because of their superior antioxidant value. Thanks to their team for an excellent recipe we'll all be able to enjoy with guests and family. (And don't miss the special deal [2] they're giving MDA readers….)
Summer wouldn't be summer without popsicles! These popsicles will make the perfect treat for when you're feeling hot and bothered, and are filled with nutrients to help you look and feel your best. (They are also a fab way to use up any overripe strawberries you might have!)
We're fairly sure there's nothing better than a pretty popsicle that's yummy AND healthy, so we've paired Primal Kitchen®'s Collagen Peptides [3] with Pique Tea's Hibiscus Beauty Elixir [4] for that extra kick. Hibiscus is a antioxidant powerhouse that's not only delicious, but also boasts skin-enhancing properties.
Strawberries offer antioxidant power in their own right, helping reduce inflammation and fight free radicals. The addition of Collagen Peptides "seals and heals" your gut lining, repairs damaged cell walls and offers essential with amino acids.
Each Pique Tea sachet contains up to 12x the antioxidants (third-party verified) than regular teas and is the first of its kind to be Triple Toxin Screened for pesticides, heavy metals, and toxic mold. Mark's Daily Apple's fans get a special deal: Get up to 2 FREE cartons here! [2]
Strawberry Hibiscus Collagen Pops
Time in the Kitchen: 10 minutes, plus a few hours to freeze popsicles
Servings: 6 popsicles, depending on size of popsicle mold
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup chopped fresh strawberries
- 3 sachets Pique Tea Hibiscus Beauty Elixir [4]
- 2 scoops Primal Kitchen® Collagen Peptides [3]
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar (or liquid stevia to taste)
- ¼ cup chopped fresh mint
First, start by boiling 2 cups of water, then remove from heat. Next, slowly sprinkle in coconut sugar (optional), Pique's Hibiscus Beauty Elixir [4] and Primal Kitchen's Unflavored Collagen Peptides [3] until completely smooth.
Add the chopped strawberries into the mold, fill the mold with the liquid mixture, and place popsicles in freezer for 6 hours to overnight, and you're done!
Please note that sweetening up the popsicles with coconut sugar is optional. So is adding Primal Kitchen Collagen Peptides [3], but the collagen doesn't affect the flavor of the popsicles, so why not add it in? Collagen turns these popsicles into a nourishing and wholesome summer treat.

Suspended Chairman Afoko Calls NPP's Bluff, Represents Party At EC Forum
Suspended New Patriotic Party (NPP) national chairman Paul Afoko has made a shocking appearance at the Electoral Commission hearing for a new voters' register.
It is not clear in what capacity the embattled chairman is appearing, but having rubbished the suspension by the National Executive Committee (NEC), Afoko is likely to announce himself as the substantive leader of the Elephant family.
Media report indicates that security is heavy at the venue and a metal detector is also being used to ensure paramount security."
The panel will conduct the public hearings over the next two days.
Political parties and civil society groups which have sent proposals to the EC over the demand for a new register are expected to appear before the panel to justify their positions.
Others against the call for a new register would make their case why the current register must be maintained.
The Panel is made up of His Lordship Professor V.C.R.A.C. Crabbe, Co-Chair of the Coalition for Domestic Election Observers, (CODEO), former Justice of the Supreme Court of Ghana, former Professor of Law, and former Electoral Commissioner of Ghana; Most Reverend Professor Emmanuel Asante, former Presiding Bishop of the Methodist Church of Ghana and Chairman of the National Peace Council.
The rest are Dr. Grace Bediako, a former Government Statistician and former member of the National Development Planning Commission; Dr. Nii Narku Quaynor, a renowned computer scientist, Chairman of the National Information Technology Agency (NITA) Board of Directors, and President of the Internet Society of Ghana; and Maulvi Bin Salih, Ameer of the Ahmadiyya Mission of Ghana.

County government Web services extend to animal lovers with services like online pet licensing and lost pet registration.
County governments provide a span of online services including options to receive emergency alerts and apply for permits, and in some counties, Web services are available for dog owners to register their pets and receive other useful information regarding their four-legged friends.
Clark County, Ohio, Auditor John Federer announced that starting Dec. 1, the county will begin accepting online payments for dog tag registration through the county auditor website.
"We received a number of e-mails and phone calls into our office sharing how excited [residents] were [that the county is] bringing this technology to them and how much more efficient and easier it is for people who have dogs to get them licensed," Federer said.
The county is still in the process of selecting a vendor to supply the electronic payment method and hopes to make its final decision by mid-September, according to the county.
Clark County dog tags range from $20 to $100 and once payments can be accepted online, an additional interchange fee will be added to the registration cost. According to the auditor's online application form, currently dog owners can fill out the application online but must manually send payments to the auditor's office.
King County, Wash., residents already have the option to pay for pet registrations and pet license renewals online. However, pet owners who choose to pay for the licenses online through the county's website must pay a $1.49 service fee, according to the county's website.
But for some counties, pet services extend beyond paying for dog registrations online.
The Morgan County, Ga., website outlines tips on emergency preparedness for pets during a disaster. A YouTube video on the site provides pet owners with tips to on how to prepare themselves and their pets for an emergency, and shows the proper pet materials owners should pack in the event of an evacuation.
The official website for Manatee County, Fla., shows a list of stray or found dogs and cats to assist residents with finding a lost pet or to find a pet to potentially adopt. The list includes a photo of each animal and a brief description that provides information including its name, type and age.
If a Manatee County resident's pet goes missing, he or she can register the pet through on online form on the website and receive an e-mail notification when an animal matching the description arrives at the shelter or is registered as "found."

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Here are 10 reasons Ohio State will win Friday's Discover Orange Bowl game against Clemson:
1. The Urban Meyer factor: In case you hadn't noticed, Ohio State's coach is pretty good in big games. He has a 4-0 record in BCS bowls, compared with 0-1 for Clemson's Dabo Swinney. Meyer knows how to prepare his teams for this kind of stage, and, with nearly a month to get ready for the Tigers, you know he'll have a great game plan in hand. Meyer might not have a whole lot of fans left in the state of Florida, but everyone has to respect his big-game acumen.
2. Braxton Miller: South Carolina's Connor Shaw had a big performance in Clemson's last game, a 31-17 loss to the Gamecocks. Shaw ran for 94 yards and a touchdown and passed for 152 yards and another score. Shaw is a tremendous player, but he isn't as dangerous as Miller, who can take over a game with his speed and running ability. The Tigers will have to commit to stopping the run, which should leave opportunities for Miller to make some plays in the passing game. Except for a rough ending in the Big Ten title game, Miller has a history of rising to the occasion in Ohio State's biggest games. This is a legacy moment for him, as he has yet to win a bowl game and has been waiting for this opportunity.
3. Carlos Hyde: The confident senior running back has talked openly about breaking the Orange Bowl rushing record of 206 yards, and why not? That's a regular day at the office for Hyde if he gets enough carries. Clemson surrendered big rushing days to Georgia's Todd Gurley and Syracuse's Jerome Smith. And neither of those teams also had a dangerous running quarterback to account for. Hyde, who weighs 235 pounds, can break the will of a defense with his bruising running style, and his ability to keep the chains moving will shorten the game and keep the Tigers' offense off the field.
4. 24-1: That's Ohio State's record under Meyer. The one loss was to a top-five team (Michigan State) in a game which Ohio State led in the third quarter. So the Buckeyes know how to win, and they've pulled out many close games in the past two years. The "1" on that other side of the record might be the most important part. After losing for the first time in two years, the team should have plenty of motivation to refocus and get back on the winning track.
5. The ACC, as always, is overrated: If it's early January, that must mean the ACC is doing its annual postseason nosedive. In fact, going into Friday's game, the ACC has lost its past five bowl games, many in blowout fashion. At least Duke played well against Texas A&M. Maryland, Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech, Miami and Boston College have all looked bad this bowl season. The Big Ten has its problems. But it can still look down at the ACC.
6. "Clemsoning" is still a thing: The Tigers were celebrated for beating Georgia in their opener, making it two in a row over top-10 teams from the SEC after they took down LSU in last season's Chick-fil-A Bowl. But the Tigers were flat-out embarrassed in their big home showdown against Florida State and were soundly defeated by South Carolina. Outside of the Georgia game, there's nothing impressive about Clemson's schedule, and that game was a long time ago. The Tigers have never won a BCS game and were roadkill in their last Orange Bowl appearance two years ago against West Virginia, allowing 70 points. It's still not wise to bank on Clemson in a big game.
7. The Buckeyes' BCS track record: On the flip side of our No. 6 reason is Ohio State's long and impressive BCS résumé. The Buckeyes have been to the most BCS games (10, including Friday's Orange Bowl) of any team and have won six of them, tied for the most in the BCS era. They get dinged for a couple of lopsided national-title game losses, but the reality is this team almost always shows up on this stage. Couple that with No. 1 on our list and you have a program and a coach who know how to handle this spotlight.
8. Turnovers: Many wonder how Ohio State's battered pass defense will hold up against Clemson's offense, especially with Noah Spence out (Big Ten suspension) and Bradley Roby questionable (knee injury). That's a valid question. One possible answer is by taking the ball away. In the Tigers' losses to Florida State and South Carolina, they committed a total of 10 turnovers. The Buckeyes, by contrast, have generally been very safe with the ball this season, finishing at plus-7 in turnover margin. Miller has thrown only five interceptions. Tajh Boyd has shown that he is sometimes shaky in big games. Watch out for Ryan Shazier, the ball-hawking Ohio State linebacker who will be playing basically in his hometown. Turning Clemson over will go a long way toward winning this game.
9. Ohio State's offensive line: There might not be a better offensive line in the country than the Buckeyes' group, which includes four seniors playing their final game in the scarlet and gray. Marcus Hall returns after serving a suspension in the Big Ten title game, and he should be fired up to atone for missing that one. Ohio State's offensive line has worn down opponents all season and has a great chance of winning the battle in the trenches against Clemson.
10. Woody's revenge: Ohio State legend Woody Hayes' last game came against Clemson in 1978, when he earned a pink slip by punching Charlie Bauman. Somewhere in football heaven, the irascible Hayes is cursing and screaming and kicking some clouds over this rematch. Even if he has to reach down and use a divine hand to trip a Tigers player on the way to the end zone, there's no way Woody is letting the Buckeyes lose to Clemson again in this or any other dimension.

Cognitive and/or behavioural psychotherapies are structured psychological approaches based on scientific principles and which research has shown to be effective for a wide range of problems.
CBT relies on the therapist and client developing a shared view of the individual's problem and so patients and therapists work together to identify and understand problems in terms of the relationship between thoughts, feelings and behaviour, usually focusing on difficulties in the here and now. It is therefore important that the therapist and patient develop a shared view of the problem, which will lead to identifying personalised, time-limited therapy goals and strategies. These are continually monitored and evaluated.
How can Cognitive Therapy help?
CBT can help to change how you think (Cognitive) and what you do (Behaviour). These changes can help you to feel and cope better with your condition and /or situation. It focuses on the "here and now" problems and difficulties. Instead of focusing on the causes of your distress or symptoms in the past, it looks for ways to improve your state of mind now, which in turn can have a positive impact on physical symptoms.
Cognitive and/or behavioural psychotherapies may be used on their own or in conjunction with medication or other therapies, as research has shown that this can increase the effects of cognitive therapy by 70%.
The overall aim of this treatment is to equip you with the tools to problem solve and manage your condition or problem, so that you become your own therapist. This will allow you to control your symptoms, and improve your overall psychological and physical well-being.
Conditions that have been shown to benefit from cognitive approaches include;
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome
- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
- Abdominal Pain
- Reflux Disease
- Headaches
- Neuropathic Pain
- Fibromyalgia
- Stress and anxiety related disorders
- Phobias

ADOTAS – The founders of Google have come under criticism in the press for limited use of their Google+ product — "Google Management Doesn't Use Google+" — and that management should be using the social network more. This is certainly a great observation, but even if the founders of Google are not actively using their own product, Google+ and Google +1 are here to stay.
Five reasons why everyone can cry wolf, and Larry Page and Sergey Brin may not care:
1) The Google+ products should be looked at as one entity – Google+ and Google +1 are interconnected
While Google + and Google +1 can live independently of each other, as one entity they are a forced to be reckoned with. Google+ provides users the ability to self-segment, which could prove quite lucrative for advertisers should Google ever provide the ability to serve sponsored links on Google+.
Concurrently, the +1 button platform is one of Google's fastest growing widgets, with a growing following from advertisers. The marriage of the two occurs when Google injects endorsements from Google+ into sponsored links for brands who have gone ahead and implemented the +1 widget and have been endorsed by those in Google+'s circles.
2) Google +1 for websites is being woven into the fiber of search
For now, Google says that +1 will not affect the current search algorithm. However, there is a significant impact to advertisers who do implement +1. There is the possibility that these advertisers may achieve incremental gains in CTR, which as a result will help improve ranking and quality score in the long run.
3) Google+ is growing at an exponential rate.
Paul Allen was recently reported to have estimated Google+ at 50 million users. If this projection is correct, this means that 50 million users are potentially creating circles and segmenting themselves and their personal interests within their chosen circles whether professional, family, sports teams, etc.
4) Brands will win using Google+ and Google +1
Personal recommendations by friends will become the most effective way to advertise and thus this will affect the new social search paradigm.
5) My favorite (and not-directly-related-to-search) feature is the live-stream hangouts, which have the potential to reach thousands.
Most recently, Google was able to demonstrate the power of the hangout with two very prominent political figures, the Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu. The experience which occurred last week between the two figures might be one of the greatest ways technology has recently been leveraged.

If you want to search all rules to find and replace a specific email address with the other address, you can read this article. Here we will teach you how to get it with no needs to check and change your rules one by one manually.
Outlook rule is a quite convenient and excellent feature, which can automate lots of your desired tasks. Thus, maybe you've created multiple rules in your Outlook. In face of so many rules, you'll encounter a trouble – a bit difficult to search and manage the rules. For instance, a specific contact's email address is modified. So, you'd like to check every rule to find the contact's email address and change it to a new email address. In this case, if you have a great amount of rules, it'll be too tedious to check and change rules one by one. Therefore, here we will introduce a much smarter way to you.
Batch Replace One Email Address with Another in All Rules
- At the very outset, launch Outlook VBA editor with reference to "How to Run VBA Code in Your Outlook".
- Then, put the following VBA code into a blank module.
Sub BatchChangeEmailAddressesinRules() Dim strFind, strReplace As String Dim objRules As Outlook.Rules Dim i As Long Dim objRule As Outlook.Rule Dim objRuleCondition As Outlook.RuleCondition Dim objToFromCondition As Outlook.ToOrFromRuleCondition Dim objConditionRecipients As Outlook.Recipients Dim objConditionRecipient As Outlook.Recipient Dim objRuleAction As Outlook.RuleAction Dim objSendAction As Outlook.SendRuleAction Dim objActionRecipients As Outlook.Recipients Dim objActionRecipient As Outlook.Recipient 'Specify the email address strFind = InputBox("Specify the email address to be found:", "Find", "email@example.com") strReplace = InputBox("Specify the email address to replace:", "Replace", "email@example.com") If strFind <> "" And strReplace <> "" Then 'Process the rules in your default mailbox Set objRules = Outlook.Application.Session.DefaultStore.GetRules For i = objRules.Count To 1 Step -1 Set objRule = objRules(i) 'Replace the email address in rule conditions For Each objRuleCondition In objRule.Conditions If (objRuleCondition.ConditionType = olConditionFrom) Or (objRuleCondition.ConditionType = olConditionSentTo) Then Set objToFromCondition = objRuleCondition Set objConditionRecipients = objToFromCondition.Recipients For Each objConditionRecipient In objConditionRecipients If (objConditionRecipient.Name = strFind) Or (objConditionRecipient.Address = strFind) Then objConditionRecipient.Delete objConditionRecipients.Add strReplace End If Next End If Next 'Replace the email address in rule actions For Each objRuleAction In objRule.Actions If (objRuleAction.ActionType = olRuleActionCcMessage) Or (objRuleAction.ActionType = olRuleActionForward) Or (objRuleAction.ActionType = olRuleActionForwardAsAttachment) Or (objRuleAction.ActionType = olRuleActionRedirect) Then Set objSendAction = objRuleAction Set objActionRecipients = objSendAction.Recipients For Each objActionRecipient In objActionRecipients If (objActionRecipient.Name = strFind) Or (objActionRecipient.Address = strFind) Then objActionRecipient.Delete objActionRecipients.Add strReplace End If Next End If Next 'Save the rule changes objRules.Save Next End If End Sub
- After that, click the "Run" icon in toolbar to trigger this macro.
- Next,specify the email address to be found and the corresponding replacement, like the following screenshot.
- Eventually, after macro finishes, you can check your rules. All the rules which contain the specific email address have been changed, as shown in the image below.
If Suffer Outlook Errors
A majority of Outlook regular users have been ever subject to annoying errors. For instance, if you frequently shut down Outlook improperly, one day you may receive the error, like inaccessible PST file. It refers to that your Outlook PST file may be corrupt. Then, you have to fix PST, which can be done by the inbox repair tool or a specialized external utility, like DataNumen Outlook Repair.

Recent home improvement trends recommend installing an outdoor fireplace. Adding a sense of luxury to the total feel of your residence, it is one of the most favorite additional housing elements you can enjoy. The outdoor fireplace gives your backyard or patio a warm and cozy feel that can allow you to enjoy nights outside and spend time outdoors even as the seasons get colder. Take note of the following when plotting to install an outdoor fireplace:
Where Will You Place It?
Envisioning where precisely in your property, you will place your fireplace is one major deciding factor. Consider the surrounding views, wildlife, and trees so the fire can complement and enhance the ambiance. Make sure the location will be in full compliance with community and city guidelines. Plotting the placement must also rely on the usual seating capacity that you plan. Take note of the build and style of the seating options, so they complement the design of the fireplace as well. Also, you must remember to ensure safety above all factors, so fire hazards, storage, and disposals are priority points.
Which Fire Starter Do You Prefer?
Fuel options influence the design and build of the fireplace you will use. You have the opportunity to choose amongst propane, natural gases, wood, or gel fuels. Wood is the cheapest and most common. They require space for storage and careful fire extinguishing and waste disposal. Gel fuels are the most expensive and are the cleanest to use. The heat they generate is limited, and they do not produce smoke. Propane and natural gas are both easy to use, but the first is not portable, and the latter needs a gas line installation.
How to Select a Design?
When choosing amongst available designs, consider the architecture of your home. The complementary colors are relevant to think about, as well as the material build of your fireplace. For budget-friendly options, you can choose stones. If you want a low maintenance model, you can pick aluminum. For heavy duty against corrosion or for regular use, your options are cast-iron, copper or stainless steel.
If luxury is what you are after, Barbecue Smoker Isokern Fireplaces manufactured by Earthcore is your most elegant option. Barbecue Smoker has a modern luxurious design that creative and edgy homeowners will surely appreciate. Visit Earthcore today and look into the Isokern Fireplaces they offer.

Composed by the National Planning Team and endorsed by the Bishop's Working Party, the following is the official prayer for A Year of Grace.
Gracious God,
You have blessed this ancient land
with many gifts, especially its people.
We thank you for the Year of Grace,
a time to start afresh from Christ.
You invite us to contemplate the face of Jesus your Son,
that we may experience a new wave of grace,
and that the light of Christ may burn more brightly in our lives.
Attune our hearts and minds
to the presence of your Holy Spirit,
that our Church may be transformed,
our relationships be healed,
and our nation grow in compassion and justice.
With the intercession of St Mary MacKillop,
who showed us new ways of living the Gospel,
we make our prayer
through Christ our Lord.
Mary, Help of Christians, pray for us.

as I contemplate your face,
let me experience your great love for me.
Reveal your saving grace
and give me a grateful heart.
Heal me of my weaknesses and sin
and fill me with compassion
for others.
Gift me with the wisdom of the Spirit
and encourage me to be
a faithful witness to the Gospel.
Come Holy Spirit, Creator blest
And in our hearts take up thy rest:
Come with thy grace and heavenly aid
to fill the hearts which thou hast made.
O comforter, to thee we cry,
thou heavenly gift of God most high:
thou font of life and fire and love,
and sweet anointing from above.
Praise be to thee, Father and Son,
And Holy Spirit, with them one:
And may the Son on us bestow
The gifts that from the Spirit flow.

Do you have someone at work who consistently triggers you? Doesn't listen? Takes credit for work you've done? Wastes your time with trivial issues? Acts like a know-it-all? Can only talk about himself? Constantly criticizes?

"When you have a pro-peace rally, I will be there." ~ Mother Theresa's response to a question about why she did not attend an anti-war rally.
Spiritual Activism is the coming together of spirituality, and activism. It is not about religion, it is not about any form of dogma, it is activism that comes from the heart, not just the head, activism that is compassionate, positive, kind, fierce and transformative. Being a spiritual activist means taking our part in creating change, with a spirit of positivity, compassion, love and a balance of interdependence and self determination. Nothing could be more inspiring and more rewarding than being the change we want to see in the world, within and without.
Below are some suggested tenets I have adapted from a group called Humanity Healing. This is not a definitive statement – just one groups suggestions – but a good set, and well worth considering.
The path of Spiritual Activism enables individuals or groups to develop the noble qualities of compassion, wisdom and gratitude. It is in itself a Path of Transformation – a Spiritual Blueprint for living. The core dynamics behind the Spiritual Keys of Activism are creativity, adaptability, understanding and the peaceful resolution of conflicts.
1. All Action is Based on Compassion
When championing a Cause, the mindset must be altruistic and the motivating emotion must be positive. Spiritual Activism is action for the benefit of something, not against something.
2. Compassion Flows from the Understanding of the Connection Between All Living Beings.
We are all connected through our shared Humanity. When you learn to see that our differences are superficial and our similarities manifest, sympathy (or worse, pity) gives way to compassion. Our actions shift from one of "us helping them" to one of "for the good of All". We become One.
"The whole idea of compassion is based on a keen awareness of the interdependence of all these living beings, which are all part of one another, and all involved in one another." ~ Thomas Merton
3. Compassion Must Be Applied With Wisdom
There are more causes that exist than an individual or group can possibly be involved with. It is important to choose your causes carefully. Learn to Act instead of React.
4. Apply Synergy and Teamwork to Accomplish Goals
Synergy is the process where two or more actions combine to produce an effect greater than the sum of its individual parts. Like ripples in a pond, spiritual actions combine and build on each other to magnify an effect beyond what each could do individually. Whenever possible, team up with others to acquire a multifaceted and more holistic approach.
"The whole is greater than the sum of the parts." ~ Unknown
5. Spiritual Activism is the Pursuit of Service for the Good of All, Not for the Advancement or Benefit of Individuals or Selected Communities. The mindset behind your actions is noble, holistic, Universal and non-partisan. Be mindful that ego and self-service have no place in Spiritual Activism.
***Velcrow's note: however spiritual activism is all about Self serving – it serves your highest Self, not your ego, and is a pathway to true and deep happiness, as opposed to the temporary and unstable happiness of the ego.
6. Pursue Integrity, Honesty and Dignity in the Conduct of Your Actions
Embrace Mindfulness in the application of your activities and be aware of how your actions may be perceived by others. Machiavelli's "The ends justify the means" has no place in Spiritual Activism. If our methods are not noble, our results will not be either. Practice Spiritual Transparency, allowing negative energies to bypass your system without harming it.
"Integrity is doing the right thing even if no one is watching." ~ Unknown
7. Do not Defame Your Detractors or Those Who Doubt You
A confrontational approach leads to a defensive reaction. Approach others with Openness and Compassion in your heart. Build on the commonalities between you instead of focusing on the differences. As much as possible, detach yourself from the results of your actions. Aspire to always be a Peacemaker.
"Honest differences are often a healthy sign of progress." ~ Mahatma Gandhi
8. Raising Another Up Raises You Up As Well
Helping another becomes a form of self-love as well as an expression of outward love. This becomes an upwardly spiraling cycle of increasing awareness, connection, compassion, involvement, capacity, and back to increasing awareness.
9. Learn to Listen to Your Heart and Not Your Mind
Your mind may only see the problem. Your heart will always feel the solution. Learn to act with Faith and cultivate a loving perception when facing collective problems.
"Faith is taking the first step, even when you don't see the whole staircase." ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.
10. Search Out Viable and Sustainable Solutions
Seek out solutions that maintain or restores the dignity of individual human and their communities. Solutions that become self sustaining.
"Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime." ~ Jesus
11. Spiritual Activism is about process.
The process by which you arrive at the goal is as important as reaching the goal itself. If we live the change we want to see in the world, we cannot lose. We have already won.

I can see.
If you know what I mean. Contactar me.
Beautiful insight & good reads… thank you!!
Excellent description
[…] began Monday with Justin on spiritual activism, specifically its background and the theory behind it, and how it can be applied in our daily lives […]
A lot of good material. However, Jesus did not say the "Give…, Teach a man to fish…" thing. It has been traced to author Anne Isabelle Ritchie, daughter of well-known author WM Thackeray. Her 1885 book Mrs. Dymond is certifiable, and in a very insightful passage of course. Maimonides the Philosopher gave a good related kind of expression in the 11th century or so, before that.
Jesus did teach about building a house on a foundation of stone, doing good (including collecting grain) even if it means breaking rules, and fishing with Jesus´ set of tools for spiritual growth training. Another thing he taught was for the rich to sell all their land and give the proceeds to the poor, and follow Jesus. I think Ms. Ritchie´s phrase updates all that, as does, "God helps those who help themselves."

That's no way to say goodbye, Peter
As BB King continues to sing, The Thrill is Gone
As BB King continues to sing, The Thrill is Gone.
Cricket writing has lost one of its finest practitioners in the passing of Peter Roebuck.
He was 55, found dead in Cape Town, South Africa. Too young to leave and no way to go. His suicide is utterly depressing.
Peter Roebuck at the Cricket Club of India in 2001.
PIC/MiDDAY ARCHIVES
Only on Friday, he sent us a copy of his report on Australia getting bowled out for 47 by South Africa in the Newlands Test. And his last piece that appeared in this newspaper probably was his best in terms of cricketing catastrophes. "Madness, chaos, calamity and bizarre were the sorts of words thrown about Newlands as the Australians collapsed to 9/21. A few others might be added, including inept, irresolute, reckless, feckless and foolish," was how he began.
Having captained Ian Botham, Viv Richards and Joel Garner at Somerset, he had the knowledge to come up with thoughts which only players understand to the fullest. To that, he added splendid words that would give other writers an inferiority complex and make them wonder why are they in the profession just like guitar legend Jimi Hendrix did to his fellow six-string exponents.
Roebuck was contemporary cricket's finest writer. And his weakness for going over the top at times shouldn't really chip away at this fact. Indeed, he was imperfect. Not everyone agreed with his view that Ricky Ponting should be sacked as Australia captain during the tumultuous Sydney Test against India in 2008. During that summer, whatever Roebuck wrote became news. And the Sydney Morning Herald used some of his pieces as the lead story of their editions.
He was human enough to be even factually wrong. One remembers hearing about Greg Chappell's annoyance when Roebuck mentioned in a magazine that Chappell opted not to tour India as a player. That wasn't true since Chappell was not picked for the 1969-70 tour and when it came to the 1979-80 one, he was part of Kerry Packer's World Series Cricket.
But, there were times when players, on after thought, acknowledged he was right. Once, an illustrious Australian player asked a journalist to convey his apologies to Roebuck, to which the journalist said, "do it yourself."
He was fearless and his pet topics were the crumbling of Zimbabwe under Robert Mugabe, ICC's power games and conflict of interest. Long before Ravi Shastri and Sunil Gavaskar's television commentary contract with the BCCI came into controversial focus, he criticised their deal.
On a personal level, he was gay and a loner and appeared troubled. He cherished his tours to India, welcoming comfort rather than opulence. On his last trip to India he preferred a Byculla hotel than the Cricket Club of India, a venue he loved though. In Bangalore, an MG Road hotel would do just fine.
Roebuck wrote straight from the heart. His seat -- the first on the second row -- at the Sydney Cricket Ground press box will not be easy to fill.
The thrill is gone.

Another place we visited (or I should say re-visited) while in Oahu earlier this month, was the Polynesian Cultural Center. Best to arrive as soon as it opens and spend the whole day as there is much to see and experience. This is a cultural delight your entire family will enjoy.
There are six cultures represented here: Aotearoa, Fiji, Hawaii, Tahiti, Tonga and Samoa. Each one has its own village, offering unique performances and interactive demonstrations. You might learn a new game with sticks, prepare a local food native style, or make your own woven headband.
Guests may freely tour the villages themselves or participate in a tour, as we did. This was our sweet tour guide, Brooklyn. We spent most of the day with her, visiting each village as she explained traditions and history. We caught at least one attraction in each village, took the canoe ride, and here she was explaining how the taro plant becomes poi (a traditional Hawaiian food).
One of the highlights of the day is the canoe pageant. Each culture demonstrates their particular style of song and dance. My favorite was Tahiti. (Please excuse my amateur video, haha.)
After a full day of village hopping, enjoy a luau, which is what I recommend for first visits. As we had experienced the luau before, we thought we'd try the prime rib buffet. The main difference is that the luau has Hawaiian entertainment as you dine on traditional luau food (quite yummy and served buffet style), while the delicious prime rib (and crab legs) buffet forgoes the show (although we were serenaded with the song, You Are My Sunshine, in honor of our anniversary).
Whatever you do, don't miss the evening show, Breath of Life. It's simply spectacular! I have no pictures of it since photography is not allowed. Just trust me, this is will be the perfect end to your day here. ♥ Thanks for stopping by!

Jay Z and Chris Martin Take the London Underground Tube
One Day, Jay Z May Be Sitting Next to You on the Train
Jay Z surprised lots of Londoners on Saturday night when he traveled to his Magna Carta Holy Grail tour show by underground Tube. The hip-hop superstar was accompanied by manager Ty, record executive Michael Kyser, close friend Timbaland, and Coldplay's Chris Martin — the latter two both later joined him on stage at the O2 Arena. The group seemed to blend into the crowd, sharing laughs and sitting in the back of the train, but it wasn't long before bystanders and fans started to freak out on social media. One rider tweeted, "Coming off the tube and I see Jay Z casually walking up the next escalator next to me… EVERYONE GOES NUTS!!"
This is definitely not the first time Jay has been spotted taking public transportation to a gig. In December 2012, he famously hopped on the subway to get to a concert at Brooklyn's Barclays Center and ended up sitting next to unsuspecting NYC artist Ellen Grossman, who asked him, "Are you famous?" Their adorable conversation became a part of Jay's documentary, Where I'm From and resulted in a viral video.

WEST HARWICH, Mass. — At a recent weekly Thursday Reunion of the Encountering Christ in Others, Cape Cod retreat program, Father Ron P. Floyd introduced the group to three magnificent examples of Christ's light and love.
To honor the feast of the Annunciation, when Mary said yes to Gabriel's call, Father Floyd invited the special guests to the reunion held at Our Lady of Victory Church in Centerville.
Father Floyd intrigued the group with his invite: "I can't tell you anymore than this: one is married to royalty, one was a NCAA Division I quarterback, and one is a singer who just released a hit new album, and they all have one thing in common — but you have got to come to the reunion to find out more."
The three guests were: Father Joseph Freedy, who is the Vocation director from the Diocese of Pittsburgh; Sister Mary Consulata and Sister Maria Benedetti, both Dominican Sisters of Mary Mother of the Eucharist in Ann Arbor, Mich.
Those in attendance learned about the trio's Spiritual calling and when they realized it was their call and how they answered that call.
All three were beaming when they spoke of the moments they realized they were being called. It made those there that night feel as though you were right there with them when the two Sisters and priest were called. They were so kind to answer the many questions the attendees had always wanted to ask a Sister or priest but never had the opportunity to do so.
Some of the student's were surprised to learn that all three religious "didn't think they were worthy to be called." Barbara-Anne Foley, rectora for ECHO 308, said to some students when they were surprised by that comment about being worthy: "I was told by someone once, 'God doesn't call the equipped, He equips those He calls.'"
The three were visiting the Fall River Diocese on a vocation mission and visited five schools in three days and the ECHO Reunion.
At least two female students in the reunion room are discerning themselves about religious life and Sisters Mary and Maria could not have been more accommodating answering their questions, exchanging information and inviting them to upcoming local events.
ECHO has been active on Cape Cod for 47 years. The Christian retreat program, under the auspices of the Fall River Diocese is open to students in grades 10-12, who are seeking to deepen their faith, enhance their relationship with God, while at the same time learning something about themselves.
The ECHO program provides six retreat weekends a year, with the Paschal Mystery as the overall theme of each weekend.
ECHO provides its participants with the opportunity to share their beliefs, and experiences in a loving, non-judgmental community. The team members on each weekend are examples of people who have accepted the challenge on the back of the ECHO cross that says "Christ is counting on you."
In addition to experiencing the ECHO weekend, members of the ECHO community have the opportunity to gather twice weekly at reunions in Mashpee at Christ the King and in Centerville at Our Lady of Victory Church.
