Before you start approaching potential clients, you will need to gather all of the equipment and tools necessary for running your Trivia Nights. This ensures you will be able to hit the ground running as soon as your first client signs on.
In order to host a professional Trivia Night, audio equipment is a must. Assuming you already have a laptop, this is the only large item you will need to purchase to start your side hustle. So, what sound equipment is necessary to make your Trivia Nights successful? Let's break it down:
What audio equipment do I need?
The specific pieces of sound equipment you will need to run a Trivia Night are speakers, a mixer, and a microphone. Some venues may have their own audio equipment in-house. But, that's not a guarantee, and it's wise to have your own as a backup even at bars with their own system.
Having the right sound equipment will ensure that all teams can hear you clearly throughout the show. And, it will provide polish and legitimacy to your service.
Where can I purchase audio equipment?
Your Last Call Trivia Flex subscription includes the option to purchase an equipment package with all of the essentials for an affordable price. On your Dashboard, you will find a link to purchase a sound equipment package tailored specifically to your Trivia hosting needs.
The 120 watt sound system includes two speakers, a user-friendly mixer, and a microphone. And to top it off, ordering your equipment through the Flex site is as easy as the click of a button. You can pay using the credit card information saved under your monthly subscription information, and have the equipment delivered right to your door.
But, if you prefer to purchase your equipment elsewhere, that is an option as well. For example, audio equipment is available at online retailers such as Amazon, or brick and mortar electronic stores such as Best Buy.
Where can I find training for setting up my audio equipment?
In addition to the easy sound equipment ordering process, the Flex site also contains a short training video for setting up your equipment.
This video, and other trainings, can be accessed from the Resources section of your account. This takes the guesswork out of the equipment selection and setup process. And in turn, it will streamline this step in setting up your Trivia Night side hustle.
Investing in the proper audio equipment will pay for itself hundreds of times over. It will establish the legitimacy of your Trivia Nights, ensure happy customers, and save you the hassle and headache of trying to project over a bar full of excited players. In other words, it's an essential asset for your side hustle. So, be sure to take advantage of the option to purchase sound equipment through your Flex subscription. It's the easiest way to get a reliable set of equipment tailored to your needs!

When the bones do not align properly, joint forces are not evenly distributed and may overload on one side, causing pain and possibly degeneration. With an osteotomy (which means a cut in the bone) the surgeon cuts, then realigns the bones (both for tibiofemoral and patellofemoral malalignment). After healing, the bones are in a new position and force (weight) is shifted from the overloaded or damaged side to the more normal side of the joint.

sleeping with sciatica - What are the 3 Best Exercises for Sciatica?
What are the 3 Best Exercises for Sciatica?
Did you know there were 3 simple exercises that could dramatically change your
? Yes,
could actually ease and disappear and never to return. Wouldn't that be great!
It is the last minor activity that can tip the scales and cause your pain. Too remove it again, you need to rebalance the scales with the targeted structural techniques and address the true causes with simple effective techniques. Then you have the "miracle"

Piriformis Stretching The sciatic nerve either runs through or next to the Piriformis muscles. If tight the Piriformis allows
to occur. So with all sciatica, Piriformis stretching is essential. Stretching the Piriformis is simple and the same rules apply...
Another way of curing the problem would be with the help of yoga. One might need surgery if
is caused by a hernia in the disk then one might need a surgery. Yoga plays a great deal in curing the problem. Daily stretches also serves as a good precautionary protection against due to sciatica.
Dr Graeme Teague is an expert in the structural field, and has been in practice since 1991. His newly launched web site The Back Pain Advisor - http://www.back-pain-advisor.com - strives to give you valuable and expert advice, tips and information on your back pain issues.

I don't want to seem like I'm putting these others down, but to have complete and permanent sciatica relief; you need to address all the causes of your back pain. And the good news is...
Are you looking for a "miracle" sciatica cure? Do you want to use an exercise that takes less than a minute to do and permanently removes your sciatica once and for all? Would you like to be 100% pain free in just 2 minutes from now?
The 3 most important muscles to target if you suffer
are the abdominal, hip flexor and Piriformis muscles. Target these and sciatica is easily controlled.
It is suggested not to perform such an exercise in case of swelling of the sciatic nerve. It is suggested to pregnant women not to apply excessive pressure while performing the exercise. Or else the certain nerves could be stimulated. This could lead into the pelvic area.
Abdominal muscle strength does not mean spending countless hours doing sit-ups or crunches. In fact these types of exercises do little to strengthen the abdominals; they can actually target the hip flexors which if over tight help create your sciatica.
Abdominal strength requires a good nerve and blood supply to the abdominal muscles and then targeted exercise that increases the strength of these muscles in days. To improve your abdominals you need ideal strengthening techniques.
3 - Joint Disruption: the pelvis and lower back from the sciatic nerve, if their mobility is less then the sciatic nerve becomes irritated. 4 - Stress: yes good old stress. Stress tightens muscles, slows healing and leads to most of the underlying causes of any health problem.
This kind of a pain can occur when the sciatic nerve gets pressed as a result of pressing it against a hard tool or keeping something thick like cards or wallets in ones back pocket or even by wearing a tight belt. But such pain can be cured by performing a number of exercises under the supervision of a physical therapist.
5 - General Health: especially your digestion. The bowel and the low back have the same nerve supply, hence if you suffer constipation, gas or wind or any bowel irregularity then you can suffer low back pain or
relief is simple enough. It takes a daily approach to change the habits your body has that led to your sciatica. Statistics show that over 92% of back pain conditions are not caused by physical trauma or physical stress. They are caused by the accumulation of daily general and emotional stresses.
If this is achieved your
will disappear quickly and is easy to prevent. To stretch the hip flexors, you need to target them correctly and the most important aspect of stretching is not what to stretch, but when and how to stretch. Knowing when and how means you spend minimal time stretching with maximum gains. Easing tension can be achieved within days not weeks or months.
The techniques necessary to solve the sciatica problems and the lower back pain are easy to use, quick to apply, takes almost no time and ca be used daily and compared to back pains this surely won?t rule your life.
People can even get relief from
from massage. For this purpose a therapist can be consulted. Once the massage over the effected part is done it is suggested to rub the painful area with a cube of ice or with a piece of wet cloth. Massage also helps in preventing
related problems.
The solutions are simple: 1. Release tension in the muscles which can be accomplished by stretching (most important is to know when and how to stretch). You need to warm up a beat before doing any stretching because your muscles need to have their blood supply and nerve stimulated. This saves time and reduced the chances to get some minor injuries while stretching.

and how to cure
naturally at http://www.treatsciaticanow.com
In actual fact there are 3 simple exercises that can help you to remove your
and help to prevent any recurrences as well. They are as follows...
Sounds amazing doesn't it? Is it possible to be pain free in just minutes and never have to worry about your back pain or
returning? Imagine being able to do everything you wish without the fear of pain.
There are also other factors, but these are the main causes. So for complete and permanent sciatica relief, you need to address all these issues. The muscle and joint imbalances are easy to address with simple targeted techniques. The stress and general health issues are just as easy if you use techniques to address these at the same time.
Joints must move correctly and your pelvis needs to be well balanced. Your muscular system will fail if your joints do not improve. The same thing goes for your pelvis ? if it does not improve your muscular system will continually fail.
What People Said About
Sciatica natural relief
Hello, I got Sciatol for my husband. Three weeks later his back pain is almost gone. Sciatol works! I'm ordering a second bottle.
" Danna, OH
Well I have some good news and some bad news... The Bad News is this is just a dream. You will see countless web sites selling their miracle cure for
and back pain, yet the majority of these just don't work. Sure some will help, but you want permanent
relief (more on that soon - the good news).
The largest bone in ones body-the sciatic nerve has a tendency to be a bit uncomforting and can cause a great amount of pain in ones buttocks. The pain that occurs in the sciatic nerve that affects the buttocks and goes down to the knees is known as
. In this case it is quite natural that the pain is felt especially in one of the parts of the hip.
Some doctors suggest hydrotherapy. According to some doctors taking a bath might provide some relief from
. In such an exercise one is expected to soak his/her body in water (as warm as the body temperature).then one is expected to soak his/her body in water for around 20 minutes. The bath is finished by taking a shower. A hot water shower is recommended.
First question: What are the Simple Steps to Follow? If you want to get rid of the sciatica pain you need to find the main factors that cause this. If you don?t find all the factors, the pain will return soon or will never leave.
is caused by 5 potential factors: 1 - Muscle Tightness: especially the Piriformis muscle if tight will cause
. 2- Muscle Weakness: most commonly the abdominal muscle group (this is a lack or nerve and blood supply, not lack of doing sit-ups).
When it returns it usually gets worse with each episode and this is why so many people complain about constant nagging back pain.
commonly becomes more severe as the time passes and eventually surgery becomes the only valid option. If you fail to address all the factors that causes your
you will suffer when you get older.
The Good News is that complete and permanent
relief is possible. It also does not take months to achieve, but it does take consistent effort. Not a large effort but a daily routine of teaching your body to work better. Why?
Relax Your Hip Flexors The hip flexor muscle group if tight increases the curve of our lower back. This increases pressure on the sciatic nerve and allows your sciatica to occur. The hip flexors and abdominal muscles work together. A strong abdominal group and a balanced hip flexor group give you stability, flexibility and strength in your lower spine.
What to stretch is important, how and when to stretch is essential. Especially if you want to change your sciatica quickly and permanently. Perfect stretching is the key!
Just imagine being able to walk freely, enjoy life, play with your children. All without that nagging
that has become a real "pain in the butt". Life would be so much easier and happier, wouldn't it?
Reflexology might also be helpful in certain cases. One needs to work on reflex points around the shoulder and the sciatic nerve. A therapist could help in finding such reflex points.

No matter how long or how severe your
is, it does take time to remove your pain. Not a long time, but time all the same. You need to address the causes and symptoms after all. They have taken time to arrive and they will take time to disappear.
Strengthen Your Abdominals Your abdominal muscles are the most important muscle for pelvis and lower back stability. Your
is caused by irritation to the sciatic nerve. This is formed from 5 nerve roots that exit the last parts of your spine. If your abdominal muscles are stringer then these areas are more stable and able to move easier.

pain relief can be simple, easy and quick.
I get two common questions in my practice about sciatica. If you know the answers to these will help you getting directions to solving your back problems. Although back pain may be a pretty complex issue it can be solved using very simple solutions.
According to studies, some people can get relief from this problem of
by consumption of potassium in large quantity. It is also advised by certain doctors to include a number of potassium rich foods in the diet of people suffering from sciatica. Foods such as potatoes and bananas are rich in potassium.
Sciatica can be helped and you can change your
quickly. Learning to stretch and strengthen the main muscles that cause your sciatica can ease your pain quickly and remove that nagging
once and for all.

In in the north east part of Mumbai , most of the plant sellers are mainly stocking flower plants in January 2018
Marigold, rose, hibiscus, zinnia, dahlia, hibiscus are the popular plants for sale
It appears that it is easier to sell these flower plants as they are colourful and it is easier to convince the buyer to purchase these plants
The plant sellers will usually stock plants where the flowers are blooming or about to bloom.
However for the buyer, it can be a risky decision, as the plant will often wither and die soon after it flowers . So the flowering plant buyer can enjoy the flower plant only for a few days or weeks , and usually do not produce seeds
Then they are only left with mud, and a pot which they can reuse at a later date for growing other plants. So it is important to consider various factors before deciding to purchase a particular plant, like the life of a plant

The Holderness family literally can't handle the snow right now
The winter struggle is real — even when the snow is already melting.
The Holderness family of North Carolina fully admits that winter may not be as rough as it is up north in this Zac Brown Band-inspired parody, but that doesn't mean Southerners don't get their share of winter struggles — they just don't handle it as well.
If someone could please help them move that branch off the road, so they can buy some more milk and bread, the family would really appreciate it.

The Reason We Are In Business
April 2014
In the spring of 2005, my father and I sold our wind energy company Zilkha Renewable Energy to Goldman Sachs. We were comfortable with Goldman because they had helped sell our oil and gas exploration company in 1998.
We sold what had become one of the largest wind developers in the United States because we could no longer afford to fund all the opportunities we were developing. Wind energy had become fashionable, and our business model no longer worked. When we started out in 1998, a large wind farm was 80 MW in size, and cost about $1000 per MW to develop. By 2005 we were developing 400+ MW wind farms, and the cost of developing each MW had risen to about $1, 500. More importantly, you now had to put down deposits to secure wind turbines two years in advance, whereas we used to be able to order them for immediate delivery whenever we needed to. You had to be either a very small operator, with minimal overhead, developing individual plays to sell on to a larger wind developer, or if you were planning to construct the wind farms you developed, you needed a large profitable balance sheet because of the tax credits attached to wind production. Goldman Sachs held the large balance sheet and they appreciated the culture which made Zilkha Renewable special, so we felt they were the right owner to carry our company forward. We retained a net profits interest, and our wind company was rechristened Horizon Wind Energy. When Goldman Sachs sold Horizon to Energias de Portugal (EDP) two years later, it was one of the single largest investments on Goldman's balance sheet; and factoring in future turbine orders, they had committed over $2 billion to the venture.
My father and I discovered that we loved the larger sense of purpose and the satisfaction that came from being in renewable energy. The sense of accomplishment when our Blue Canyon wind farm opened in Oklahoma in 2003 was exhilarating. Wind in the early 2000s was not an easy sell in Oklahoma, yet here was this large wind farm which we had persuaded the Kimbells, a family steeped in oil and gas exploration, to allow us to build on their land, and which was soon to become a tourist attraction. We had made special efforts to have the associated buildings fit in with local architecture, and to be the best neighbor possible. Blue Canyon has been through two expansions and is now four times its original size. We may have needed to sell our wind company but we did not want to be out of the renewable energy business, hence our move into biomass.
Biomass, like wind, is a renewable energy source, although it has presented an entirely different set of challenges. In wind we were applying known technology in a novel and systematized way. In biomass we have ended up developing a brand new technology. The emphasis in our first energy company was on science and prospect generation and lease acquisition. Our product sold itself. In wind our focus was on acquiring the best sites (a combination of windiness and location), securing a purchaser and integrating into our host communities. In biomass we are having to combine skills from both. Although steam explosion, which is how we create our pellets, has been used for years in the pulp business, we are applying the process in an entirely new way. So we have had to build an exceptional engineering team. Once we had perfected our water resistant pellet, we discovered that it was not easy to persuade a utility or end user that it was worth switching to a different fuel, albeit a superior one. We also learned of an understandable reluctance on the part of potential customers to entrust a sole source provider with supplying fuel for their plant. So we have deliberately sought out licensees to enhance our credibility and provide greater supply. We are now eight years into our journey. We have developed a brand new clean, renewable fuel which we believe will soon become the preferred renewable, on-demand (dispatchable) choice all over the world. Our water-resistant wood pellets enable coal plants, either through co-firing or complete substitution, to meet their renewable mandates without the costly retrofits necessitated by conventional wood pellets. In the case of certain islands and other special situations where oil is used as a primary fuel, we can, through conversion, save our customers up to a third on their fuel costs. And we are using a bountiful source of energy, which needs harvesting for forests to remain healthy, as our source product, at a time when the pulp business has fallen off as a result of less people reading physical newspapers.
My father says that in business he has enjoyed the journey more than the arrival, and currently we are on a thrilling journey to commercialize woody biomass and improve our environment in the process.

Some interesting remedies prescribed in the last few weeks:
For a chap with a hacking cough that he's had for months and sometimes comes in spasms. I've known him for a long time and have often felt his remedy must lie in the IRON SERIES. He's a no nonsense very hard working builder and quite irritable. But which iron series remedy? When I repertorised I noticed Corallium Rubrum coming up high and Red Coral contains a lot of iron (giving it the red colour) and has a lot of irritability and holding a grudge (like many sea remedies). This remedy given daily and followed with PERTUSSIN has cured this very troublesome cough.
The essence of this remedy is feeling embarrassed about making a mistake or saying the wrong thing. These patients get very embarrassed and there may be developmental issues in early life.
STINGRAY (Urolophus halleri)
Very interesting remedy. For someone who feels betrayed ('stung'). The patient may say they 'flip' from one state to another. Think of the flat stingray that is either shows only one side or another). They may have dreams of old flames/friends who they fancy sexually coming back into their life.
Much underused remedy. I used it recently in a case of arthritis where the patient is overweight but craves fats, with good results.
SALMON (Oncorhynchus tschawytscha)
I had a lovely case of a child of 8 who had recently moved to the UK from France. She suffers from Asthma which the mother thinks is related to house dust mite. But she also has difficult breathing after running at school. I thought it was a clear TUBERCULINUM case but that did nothing. Then House Dust Mite in potency helped. But it was only when I went a bit deeper and discovered the extent of home sickness (plus a strong aversion to salmon) that the correct remedy came to me.

I hope you all are enjoying this week! Today, I am sharing with you all green tea Langues de Chat! Or, cat's tongue cookies. :P
There`s a story behind these cookies (isn`t there always? Don`t I bore you guys enough with my stories?!?). Sorry, I am such a bad storyteller (why do I blog about food then?! Uh, what`s with the questions today?).
SO. My roommate introduced me to this one Asian bakery somewhat near my university campus one day when we went out for lunch. I`ve been to many Asian bakeries, but this one will be one I will always visit. All because of these cookies.
Of course, I had ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA what they were called when I bought them. I saw them and read the tag and all it said was "Green Tea Cookies". I thought to myself, "Oh, I love green tea flavored desserts! There`s only like 20 pieces inside and they cost like 4 bucks, but I want to try them!"
I bought them.
Loved them.
No, seriously, I loveee them.
I knew I could make them at home so I don`t have to go out and buy them whenever I crave for some. Unfortunately, I didn`t know the exact names for these cookies, so I couldn`t find any recipe that described these cookies. I googled and searched for green tea cookies, green tea butter cookies, green tea shortbread, etc, but no hope.
I even went back to the bakery to look at the tag (and bought 2 bags of them) to double check on the name! Still, no luck. For, like, a month. I told everyone about how yummy they were and how I wanted to make them SO BADLY. My roommates, my boyfriend, and my sisters!
One day, I`m not sure what I did, but I stumbled upon this cookie picture that looked JUST LIKE THEM. Except, they weren`t green tea. Still, hope!
With my eyes twinkling, I read the name: Langues de Chat. BOOM!
Crtl+T >> Googled Langues de Chat >> discovered that they`re also called cat`s tongues >> Googled Green Tea Langues de Chat. Ah, recipes! BAM! Happiness.
I told my boyfriend the name since they`re French cookies and he lived in France and all...you know what he said? "OH, I know what Langues de Chat are! It means tongues of cats."
I`m like, "WHAT. Why didn`t you tell me the name of these darn, delicious cookies when you knew the name all along?!"
"I never made the connection." Since these were green tea flavored.
Seriously. Boys.
I used a different green tea powder for these cookies than the ice cream: (Sorry, I do not know the brand since everything was in Japanese.) You can use any brand, I just wanted to show you guys different green tea powder containers, so you guys can look out for them if you don`t know what they look like. :)

*Fix requested*
I don't think this is the intended behavior of the datatable object, but the header text seems to go from vertical center aligned to vertical bottom when the column is adjusted.
I added this as an idea, but this has to be an error to have the alignment randomly change like this. Have others had this issue?
Hi @Olivia_Dudley ,
I've made a similar test and not met the same problem like your description.
I'm afraid text's align in data table can not be set currently in PowerApps.
It is middle align by default. Even if I adjust column, the text align will not change.
Please try to set your column's AutoWidth to false, maybe this can help.
What's more, you could also try to use gallery. In gallery, you could set the label's align.
Here's a similar issue for your reference:
Best regards,
Hi Phoebe(@v-yutliu-msft),
Please note that although it would be nice to control alignment, this is not what I am asking for. Alignment should remain the same while users of the app are adjusting column with.
AutoWidth was set to false in the original example presented. This behavior does not change when this property is toggled on or off. Ideas seems like a place for enhancement/feature requests. For instance, if I want shape objects to have a merge option (similar to PowerPoint) then I would share my Idea. (I have already created an Idea for a break-fix issue.) However, if I add text to an app and the weight randomly changes this would be a request to fix, since the expected result did not occur. Please help if you can with this known issue which is happening for all PowerApps I create. The issue with alignment is definitely occuring. It is the expectation that properties will not change without there being a clear command to do so. Please clarify the following...
Thank you,
*bump* @v-yutliu-msft
How do I report bugs? I don't believe the intention of the Data Table is to randomly change alignment. @v-yutliu-msft Can you help direct me as to where to report break-fix issues?
Hi @Olivia_Dudley I'm sorry you're experiencing this issue. Please review the following link:

Where to go in a Dayboat
"As a Norfolk Broads fan for over 40 years, if I was asked to recommend dayboat river trips, these would be my first choices. Whatever you want from your day trip, there is no doubt the Norfolk Broads will reward you with a wonderful variety of options, you are simply spoilt for choice!" (Jill Thwaites)
Dayboat for an hour:
There is hardly time for but the briefest impression of the busiest part of the Norfolk Broads, but I would suggest that from Wroxham you go down river to Wroxham Broad and hopefully see some sailing (racing takes places on Saturdays and Sundays) and return with your appetite wetted.
Dayboat for four hours:
Leaving Wroxham, cruise to Salhouse Broad where you can picnic, let the children play or walk through the woods to Woodbastwick Brewery for a sturdy pint. If that doesn't tempt you, carry on from Salhouse through the pretty and popular village of Horning to Ranworth Broad, moor up at the staithe and visit the fascinating floating Broads Wildlife Centre and surrounding nature trails. Then challenge yourself to climb Ranworth Church Tower - it's well worth the effort as the panoramic views are spectacular!
A shorter alternative is to moor the other side of Horning at Cockshoot Dyke, enjoy a picnic and possibly follow the boardwalk nature trail.
Full Day:
For an eight hour trip, I would recommend cruising from Wroxham through Horning, past the entrance to Ranworth Broad and South Walsham Broad both on your right (these are both worth a subsequent visit) and then turn left towards Ludham and Womach Broad. For lunch, moor at Womack or carry on up through Ludham Bridge to Barton Broad passing Howhill and the beautiful riverside houses at Irstead, then enjoy your picnic at Barton and return to the boatyard.
Alternatively, cruise in the opposite direction from Wroxham through Wroxham Bridge to Belaugh and Coltishall Common for a picnic or lunch at the Kings Head public house. Then carry on up to end of navigation, mooring just before the end to cross over the bridge and walk to the Recruiting Sergeant in Coltishall for good pub grub. This leisurely route could also be covered within 4 hours, but without the relaxing stops.
As with all things on the Norfolk Broads, you are your own master of time, so Wroxham to Horning can take one hour or three days - that is the magic of the Broads!

As the first bird and the first agricultural animal to have its genome sequenced, the chicken is paving the way for research on human diseases, as well as studies on chicken breeding to benefit agriculture. An international consortium of scientists that includes a researcher from Michigan State University analyzed the chicken genome and published a paper in the Dec. 9 issue of the British science journal Nature.
The first draft of the chicken genome was placed into free public databases for use by researchers around the world in March 2004.
The bird whose genome was sequenced, a red jungle fowl (Gallus gallus) known by her wing band number, 256, still lives on the MSU campus in a facility that serves the lab of Jerry Dodgson, professor of microbiology and molecular genetics at MSU, who has worked on mapping the chicken genome for the past 17 years. At 7, she's quite old for a chicken and is oblivious to the importance of her contributions to science.
No. 256 was chosen as the genome model because she's from an inbred line; this makes her genome more uniform than non-inbred chickens. Also, red jungle fowl represents the wild type species from which all domestic chickens came. A female was chosen because female birds contain a sex chromosome (called W) that male birds lack. She also provided DNA used to create recombinant DNA clone maps of the chicken genome. Those maps provided the framework for the much more detailed genome sequence assembly.
"Chickens and humans are, in some cases, infected by the same viruses, bacteria and parasites," said Dodgson, one of the coordinators of the International Chicken Genome Sequencing Consortium, which sequenced and analyzed the red jungle fowl genome. "The research shows that chickens and humans share more t

By Asia Fields
Najla Mohamed-Lamin grew up in a refugee camp believing the world ended where the horizon met the Sahara Desert.
"When I was a kid, I thought [the camp] was the world. I didn't think there was something outside of that," Mohamed-Lamin, now 28 years old, said.
Mohamed-Lamin now finds herself in Bellingham attending Whatcom Community College. She left the refugee camp she grew up in near Tindouf, Algeria for the U.S. a year ago, after a local family offered to host her.
Mohamed-Lamin describes most of her childhood in the camps as happy, but she sensed she wasn't where she belonged.
"I grew up hearing my grandmother praying everyday: 'Please God, return me to my homeland. I want to die there. I want to be there.' But I didn't really fully understand," Mohamed-Lamin said.
Her grandparents died in the refugee camp and are buried there.
Mohamed-Lamin's first memory of seeing the world outside the camps was around the age of nine. She traveled with a program that took her to Spain, Western Sahara's former colonizer.
"We have water crises and don't have enough water to drink, and they're swimming in water," she said, remembering her shock upon seeing swimming pools.
That trip drove Mohamed-Lamin to begin realizing the injustice of her situation, pushing her to become politically involved.
"You start to question: Why am I here? Why do I live this life? Why do I live in a tent but not in a house? Why don't I have the things other kids have?" Mohamed-Lamin said.
Mohamed-Lamin's grandparents and mother were among the Sahrawi people who fled to Algeria after Morocco claimed a majority of Western Sahara in 1975 – the beginning of the 41-year-old conflict.
The United Nations estimates there are 165,000 Sahrawi refugees in the Algerian camps due to the Western Sahara territorial conflict with Morocco.
"In the middle of nowhere there were airplanes bombing them," Mohamed-Lamin said. "Some people forgot their babies, some people forgot everything they owned and they just got away."
Despite U.N. calls for a solution, the status of the Sahrawi refugees remains unchanged.
"Everyone felt this was temporary. Everyone thought this was for a week, for a month, for one year. Nobody imagined it was going to be for 41 years," Mohamed-Lamin said.
Mohamed-Lamin has pursued education, even when there weren't many opportunities, and sees this as key to helping her people. She learned English through a school in the camps, organized by Not Forgotten International, a Wisconsin-based Christian organization.
After completing the school's curriculum and an online GED program, she had exhausted her local educational opportunities.
"I grew up where possibilities are not there. Even if you starve [for] them, if you want them, they're not there," Mohamed-Lamin said. "Eight years back, going to university somewhere out of the camps was like going to the moon because it was so impossible and now I'm doing it."
Mohamed-Lamin's journey to the U.S. involved support from friends, one of whom was Rebecca Roberts-Wolfe.
Roberts-Wolfe learned about the Western Sahara conflict while studying in Senegal in 2008.
"Everyone expressed to me their desire to have their story told, especially in the States," Roberts-Wolfe said. "At the time I had never heard of [the conflict] and I knew Americans had probably never heard of it."
"You start to question: Why am I here? Why do I live this life? Why do I live in a tent but not in a house? Why don't I have the things other kids have?"
Najla Mohamed-Lamin
Roberts-Wolfe was inspired to work on a documentary about Sahrawi women. Mohamed-Lamin was originally just a translator on the project, but Roberts-Wolfe decided to make her one of the stars.
Roberts-Wolfe had intended for the documentary to be feature-length. However, when she heard of Mohamed-Lamin's desire to attend university abroad, she set the project aside to help her fundraise.
"I am much more excited about the prospect of what she will come up with in terms of working for her people in the future, than what I will come up with by making this documentary," Roberts-Wolfe said.
Joey Huddleston was another of Mohamed-Lamin's friends instrumental in her journey to the States. He had met her on his first trip to the camps in 2008 as a volunteer in the camp's English school.
On a second visit years later, Mohamed-Lamin told him she wanted to attend university in the U.S.
"It's really hard for Sahrawis to leave those camps and further their education the way she is doing. It's next to impossible," Huddleston said.
However, Huddleston saw Mohamed-Lamin's determination.
"She really went down the list and started checking boxes," Huddleston said. "You just can't see someone who's that serious about it and not try to work behind the scenes to help them in that way."
Huddleston's sister, Western alumna Corrie Hodge, offered to host Mohamed-Lamin in her Bellingham home.
Funding can be a major barrier for those making the journey. Kelly Kester, director for international programs at Whatcom Community College, said students seeking a visa must demonstrate adequate funding, around $19,000 at Whatcom and $26,000 or more at Western.
A three-year process of paperwork and fundraising ensued. Mohamed-Lamin was warned that in the end, she might be denied a student visa, but she remained determined.
Eventually, she had the funds and a student visa to come to Bellingham in March 2016.
"It was very surprising that she received a visa; thousands of applicants are rejected daily for visas to the U.S.," Kester said over email.
Obtaining a visa is often difficult for students like Najla who are seen as at risk of staying in the country after their studies, Kester said.
Mohamed-Lamin's host family has welcomed her. Together they fasted for Ramadan and celebrated Eid al-Adha, a Muslim holiday. At the Womxn's March in Bellingham Jan. 21, the young girls from Mohamed-Lamin's host family wore headscarves in solidarity with her.
While in the U.S., Mohamed-Lamin hopes to study sustainable energy or environmental science at a university. Depending on financial assistance, she's considering transferring to Western.
After graduating, she will return to the camps to apply her studies to improving the lives of her people, with hopes for a solution to the conflict.
Mohamed-Lamin would like to help other Sahrawi women attend university in the U.S. through connections she has made. She also wants to create a library as a resource for women and children in the camps.
"[I want to] give people, especially women, opportunities where they could feel fulfilled and feel like they are able to do something because there are not a lot of those opportunities there," Mohamed-Lamin said.

HP Helps SMBs Streamline Business Operations with New Entry-level Server

Sydney, Australia: March 29, 2007: HP today announced the HP ProLiant ML115 server, a new addition to its x86 server line-up. The ML115 is designed to meet the growing IT and budgetary demands of small and mid-sized businesses, while optimising their business outcomes.

The HP ProLiant ML115 is an affordable, entry-level computing solution built with the needs of SMBs in mind. Powered by Second-Generation AMD Opteron™ 1000 series processors based on DDR2 memory and dual-core technology or single-core AMD Athlon™ 64 processor 3500+, the HP ProLiant ML115 is available at the price of a desktop. The server is ideal for networking, file-and-print, shared Internet access, small team email and LAN infrastructure.

"HP combines proven trust and design excellence of the industry-standard ProLiant server technology with the power of AMD's dual-core processors for SMB customers by making it simple, reliable and affordable," said Tony Parkinson, vice president and general manager, Industry Standard Servers, HP Asia-Pacific. "The HP ProLiant ML115 is a true server available at a desktop price to improve networking, business efficiency and protect company email and files."

The ProLiant ML115 joins a strong portfolio of ProLiant servers that customers of all sizes around the world have come to depend upon. "The HP ProLiant ML115 was the best step up to a real server for the network. Its speed, ease of configuration and support from HP made the setup and configuration a painless and rewarding experience. I had no problems getting my key server applications to run and now have the headroom I need to keep my business growing. Investing in a trusted company like HP was a great business decision," said Dean Calvert, Managing Director, Calvert Technologies.

According to IDC (1), HP maintained the No. 1 position in the Asia/Pacific (inc. Japan) x86 server (2) markets in unit shipment terms for the 19th consecutive quarter since Q2 2002 capturing 25.7% market share in Q4 2006.

"Small businesses require cost-effective solutions that will reliably execute a single transaction as effectively as a hundred. With the introduction of the new HP ProLiant ML115 server powered by AMD Opteron™ processors, AMD and HP have collaborated once again to deliver technology that will help small businesses maximise their IT budgets with the computing performance that addresses their everyday demands." said Kevin Knox, vice president, Worldwide Commercial Business, AMD (NYSE: AMD).

Ease-of-use and remote management drive customer value

The ProLiant ML115 is packaged in an ergonomic chassis that makes typical server hardware configuration changes simple – it is easy-to-use and easy-to-configure with off-the-shelf functionality. Remote management features allow network administrators to easily check and update the server from outside the office.

The smaller chassis and desktop acoustic levels make the ProLiant ML115 ideal for small office environments, in data centres, under desks or 'out of the way.' The ProLiant ML115 also offers:

· Four non-hot plug hard disk drive bays

· Eight total USB ports (2 front, 4 rear, and 2 internal)

· Easily accessible chassis for upgrade and expansion

· Optional drive key via front USB or internal USB for ease of booting

With the ProLiant ML115, customers have access to the expertise and guidance they need through HP and its global network of channel partners. In addition, dual-core AMD Opteron™ processors are built with Error Checking and Correcting (ECC) memory that protects businesses from data loss and unplanned system downtime. Unlike standard memory, ECC memory can actually detect and correct single-bit errors.

About HP

HP focuses on simplifying technology experiences for all of its customers – from individual consumers to the largest businesses. With a portfolio that spans printing, personal computing, software, services and IT infrastructure, HP is among the world's largest IT companies, with revenue totaling $94.1 billion for the four fiscal quarters ended Jan. 31, 2007.

Chicago Blackhawks – 2010 Stanley Cup Champions!
Last night the Chicago Blackhawks culminated their tremendous regular season and run through the playoffs by winning the 2010 Stanley Cup and bringing the Cup back to Chicago for the first time since 1961.
Being a Blackhawks fan for my entire life, I was not around in those early years but do fondly, unfortunately, remember the run to the Stanley Cup Finals in 1992 when the Blackhawks were swiftly eliminated in four games by the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Fast forward 18 years and there were certainly anxious moments during the Finals, as I would be lying if I said there were not fears of the Blackhawks being eliminated again by a team from Pennsylvania. Before the playoffs began, one of the most significant unknowns was how Antti Niemi would respond to the pressures of being in the Stanley Cup playoffs for the first time in his young NHL career.
As I wrote earlier, Niemi's performance turned out to be the least cause for concern as he was regularly found to be standing on his head through the first three rounds of the playoffs and certainly at key moments within the Stanley Cup Finals (his save with about 1:30 left in the 3rd period as a prime example).
Beyond the star power of the Blackhawks, there were huge contributions made by unexpected players – Brent Sopel stepping up in huge fashion with his shot blocks and penalty killing, Nick Boynton stepping in late in the Finals to add some stability, Ben Eager with an enormous game winning goal. All Blackhawks fans know that I could go on and on with examples of role players that stepped up their game to help bring the Cup back to Chicago.
Ultimately, the picture above really summarizes this storied season for the Chicago Blackhawks as the youngsers, Toews and Kane, have had such a significant role in turning this franchise around from the nights of playing in front of a nearly empty barn to the unbelievable celebration underway for the organization, all of the fans, and the city of Chicago.
Chicago Blackhawks – 2010 Stanley Cup Champions!
As many times as I have said that phrase since last night, I don't think it will ever get old!

Gisele Bundchen in Balenciaga Spring 2011 Ad
Fab Ad: Gisele Bundchen For Balenciaga, Spring '11
Remember when Gisele Bundchen walked Balenciaga's Spring catwalk? Well, it makes sense that now she would also star in the latest ad campaign. Only this time, she's traded in her ponytail for a choppy wig. It's certainly not the sexiest we've seen Gisele, but this just proves that she can do high-fashion just as well as she once did Victoria's Secret. And is that Balenciaga's new, limited-edition watch I see on her wrist? What do you think of this ad?

Athletes Mourn Vibose Death
The athletics fraternity is mourning the loss of former national javelin and discus champion Mereoni Vibose.
Family member Vilikesa Vatukinikini confirmed yesterday Vibose died at Sigatoka Hospital last Saturday.
"We will miss her. She was always dedicated and hardworking even though she's sick she always finds ways to finish her task.
"She's always tough and never gives excuses," Vatukinikini said.
As a young child growing up in Raiwaqa, Mavua in Nadroga, the 1998 Hall of Fame inductee used to be seen hurling sticks or throwing stones. This humble beginning blossomed into a full – blown career in field events, specialising in discus and javelin.
This athletics career spanned from secondary school athletics representing Adi Cakobau School to regionally and international meets, representing Fiji in six Pacific Games, two Commonwealth Games and two World Athletics Championships.
Former national rep Samuela Yavala said Vibose was a dedicated athlete and someone young athletes of today should learn from.
"She is a very independent athlete even though she maybe injured but she always trains and those are the kind of athletes people of today should learn from.
"A very good team worker, she was one of the best athletes in the Pacific," Yavala said.
He said it's sad that there was no understudy for athletics legend like Vibose.
"This is one problem today. During our time we learn from the experience of others and we improved from that," Yavala said.
"But unfortunately we are learning from those people who are not close to us.
"Learning from a book, book that's written for someone else people that don't belong to us.
"Mereoni was the best athlete but its unfortunate people did not learn from her," he said.
She retired from athletics in 1991 after 22 years of being the best athlete in the Pacific in her chosen discipline, having won 3 gold, 4 silver and 2 bronze medals during her career.
Vibose died at the age of 66 after a short illness and she will be laid to rest in her village on Friday.

Bringing home a new, tiny, sweet baby always opens our hearts and brings out fears and worry over this new bundle of joy. We can't bear to imagine anything harming her and all we want is for her to have good health and happiness. The entire household is taken over with care when a new little one arrives.

Of course, pool fence companies will vary from city to city and state to state, so you will have to check locally. But, having a fence around your pool when you have children is so important. There are drownings every year in Phoenix that could be avoided with a proper fence and supervision.
The type of fence Lindsey and Austin had put in was like this one. The cost is around $100 for a 10 foot section that is 4 feet tall if you purchase this one from Amazon and install it yourself. It seems like in this case a professional installation may be the way to go.
A couple of weeks ago, my son Tyler and his wife went to Disneyland with cousins. Child harnesses have really come a long way! But, they enjoyed the one they got for Spencer just as much as I did many years ago. Look at these options:
- Lay newborns on their backs to sleep. 23 years ago, the American Academy of Pediatrics changed their recommendation from stomach sleeping to back sleeping. Since that time, the incidents of SIDs decreased dramatically. My oldest 4 babies were stomach sleepers, but my younger 2 were born after the change, and I was suspicious but went along with it. But, when you see the statistics, you don't want to take any chances. Give your babies tummy time when they are awake, and you are with them.
- Always use a car seat when you are driving or riding with your infant. There is no excuse or reason not to use one. Babies can't brace themselves and will fly forward much easier than a heavier adult when there is only a small lurch while riding in a car. That can lead to serious injury or even fatality. Here is the car seat that Alicia recommends. She loves it.
- Do not leave your baby unattended on a raised surface, like a couch or a counter top. You never know at what age a baby will roll over. I have had some do it very early and others very late. Sometimes they roll over accidentally and then not again for a long time. So, it is never safe to leave them while you turn around, even for a few seconds. That also goes for setting them in an infant seat or bouncy seat above the ground. They get kicking those little legs and can end up sliding right off to the hard floor.
- Never leave your baby in the car unattended. The results of this situation are heart wrenching! I understand the situation, especially if you have had a change in routine and forgotten that you were the one driving the baby that day. Perhaps the baby fell asleep and is super quiet and you just forget he is in the car with you. If you have a lot on your mind, it may be worth it to get an alarm that reminds you to check for the baby. Alicia suggests putting your purse or briefcase or house keys next to the baby's car seat so that you will be reminded to get your baby out of the car.
- Never leave your baby in the tub or around water unattended! Not even for a minute! Lindsey's fave addresses this subject when it comes to pools, but it is equally important when it comes to the bath tub.
The best rule that I can leave you with is to love your babies unconditionally, have fun with them, cuddle them and you will keep them safe because you will be with them enjoying your time as a mother, aunt or grandmother!
Now, get in there and enjoy those kids! And, if you have any products that you love because they help to keep your kids safe, please let us know!

Well, I've been meaning to try making waffles since I bought my sandwich/waffle maker last year however the first one broke when I tried to change the plates (they sent me out a new one) so I've been a little apprehensive!
This morning I gave it a whirl and so pleased I did! I've never tried waffles before so wasn't sure what to expect, these were lovely and light and fluffy.
There are so many recipes on the Internet but I went for BBC Good food's "Awfully good ones" just for the name!
The boys loved them, only downside cleaning the waffle maker after! It's an awful design, please someone invent one that's easy clean!

Monday, March 19th - Brick - 13.44 mile bike + 1.23 mile run
With the weather in the 80's lately, I couldn't resist the urge to load up the bike and head to the park for an outdoor brick after work.
I went to Seneca/Cherokee park again, primarily because it's the closest place where I can ride without many cars.
I always seem to have trouble remembering everything I need when I'm rushing off for a workout, so I want to take a minute to thank Jennifer for helping make sure I had what I needed. She really knows how I am, and even reminded me to switch my Garmin over to bike mode before heading out on my bike (something I usually don't remember until I'm already into my ride). She really is a great wife, and great triathlete, and whether she believes it or not, a great coach!
The ride was such a great ride! I felt a little self-conscious wearing my tri suit out in public for the first time, but I just put my sunglasses on and got it done. Is it just me, or do sunglasses make you feel hidden, too?
I rode from Seneca into Cherokee and did the loop around Cherokee four times before heading back to the car, for a total of 13.44 miles. My average pace was 14.2 mph, which I'm pretty proud of considering Cherokee has a couple of killer hills!
After I got the bike loaded back onto the car, I set out for a quick run. I ended up just running around the front part of Seneca Park (which was 1.23 miles) in 9:40. My average pace was 7:53 minutes per mile!
Tuesday, March 20th - 50 minute swim
This swim was all about drills, taking it slow, and trying to figure out the problems with my form.
I read online somewhere that swimming starts with floating (you should literally just be pulling yourself through the water), so I started by trying to float. Talk about going back to step 1! The problem is, I can't float to save my life. My legs sink like rocks. Jennifer thinks it's a core issue -- that my core isn't strong enough to hold my legs up where they need to be. I really do agree with her (I mean, we all know that swimmers usually have washboard stomachs, right?), but I can't figure out how to use my core to solve the problem.
So after a few minutes of looking like I was snorkeling in a reef somewhere, I decided I should probably just move on to some drills.
I've always had trouble with drills. I don't like them, and there are some I just can't do properly. But after I do them, I notice that my swimming does improve some. For this swim, I really tried my best to do the drills properly. There are still some that I'm struggling with (and I'm sure it's because of my body positioning and floating troubles), but I felt like I gave it a good effort, and that really seemed to help my attitude.
At the end of the workout, I decided to do another timed 400. This time, though, I was going to take it slow and pay more attention to how I was swimming, instead of how fast or how hard I was swimming. The result? I finished in around the same amount of time as I did when I was going all-out (between 10 1/2 and 11 minutes), and I was hardly even out of breath at the end. That just shows me how sloppy my technique gets when I try to swim fast.
Although I've been kinda discouraged about swimming lately, I've decided I'm not going to let it stop me from doing the triathlon this weekend. I figure everyone has to start somewhere, so it's more important that I do it and get one under my belt than to not even try for fear of coming in last or looking like a fool.
And after the triathlon, I think I'm going to take a lesson or two and really show this swimming thing who's boss!
Wednesday, March 21st - Brick - 1.5 hour bike + 20 minute run
I wasn't scheduled for another brick this week, but Jennifer had one and it worked out that we could do it together, so that's what we did!
Lately, Jennifer has started thinking about how to fuel for her Half-Ironman in June (which is a 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, and 13.1 mile run!). Typically during triathlons, most of the fueling is done while on the bike, mainly because you're on the bike the longest, but also because you have easy access to a couple of water bottles, and you can even tape granola bars and other snacks directly to the bike frame.
This means we've started experimenting new kinds of fuels.
For this ride, I decided to try GU Brew.
As you can see, I had a little trouble getting all of it dissolved, but otherwise it's as simple as pouring it into your water bottle and shaking it for a few minutes.
As for the taste, it kinda reminds me of Kool-Aid (maybe just because it's a powder that comes in a Kool-Aid-like package), but definitely not as sweet.
So with my snack options and GU ready to go, I hit the road.
The ride itself was really great. I had mapped out a longer route for us to use that involved going through a cemetery, but the guard at the front wouldn't let us, so we ended up just looping the park.
After the ride, we ran the loop around the front of Seneca Park like I did on Monday. It was really hot, and they only had one working water fountain, so we called it quits after just one loop.
As for the fuel -- I really liked the GU Brew, and we'll definitely be picking more of it up. Jennifer liked the flavor of it, and I felt hydrated from it, so it's good in my book!
Thursday, March 22nd - 7.41 mile speedwork
This run was hard.
I didn't exactly plan this one correctly. It's been in the 80's lately, which is ridiculous for this time of year, and instead of going for my run early in the morning, I was planning on going right around the hottest time of the day. Luckily, Jennifer said something to me about it when it was still pretty cool out.
Here I am, all accessorized :) (and oh so serious)
The plan called for running my speed miles at an 8:31/mile pace, but since that's getting more and more comfortable for me, I decided I was going to try to do them at a 7-something/mile pace.
The first speed mile I did was really great. The weather was really nice, and everything felt great. At some point during my first 1/2 mile jog between speed miles, things started heading downhill (probably because I was heading uphill).
I suddenly realized how hot it was getting, and when I started my second speed mile, I was struggling to keep my pace in the low-8's.
After my second speed mile, I stopped by the house for some water; I was 3.72 miles into the run. I didn't take any water with me since I knew I'd be coming back to the house halfway through, but I definitely did when I went back out.
The second half didn't get any better -- I was struggling to maintain my speed the whole way through. So what was supposed to be a speed workout sorta turned into "just run as hard as you can without dying" during the speed parts, and "try to jog" during the recovery parts, but walking is totally accepted. I'm happy to note that although I did have to walk, I only walked for a few minutes total.
I finished the 7.41 miles in 1:14:42, which really isn't bad (especially considering that includes my warm-up and cool-down). I'll take it!
So yeah, this post is coming a little early since I'm doing my first triathlon on Sunday! Check back for a full report on how that goes!
