According to recent data released by the U.S. Census Bureau, the Dallas Worth Forth-Arlington, area gained more residents last year than any other metro in the nation. Growing over 130,000 in population from 2017 to 2018, the metro now stands the fourth largest in the country with over 7.5 million residents. When compared to other large cities such as Boston and NYC who actually lost residents in 2018, the increase is substantial coming in at over 30% more new residents than the second largest growing metro of Phoenix, Arizona; and the population spike does not seem to be slowing down.
Although there has been a large draw from residents in state the increases are mostly from the nation's other 49 states who are attracted to the economic opportunities and community environment offered in the DFW area. "Of its biggest advantages; job creation, housing access and affordability as well as diverse industrialization has attracted more transplants to the state than any other in the US." shares longtime Dallas resident and entrepreneur Marcus Hiles who has experienced and tapped into new growth opportunities in the state throughout his 30+ year career as a leading Texas property developer. And it's not just local figures who are recognizes the value the lone star state has to offer.

The Territorial Army was raised by the Britishers in 1920 through Indian Territorial Act of 1920 and it was org into two wings namely - 'The Auxiliary Force' for Europeans & Anglo-Indians, and 'The Indian Territorial Force' for Indian Volunteers. After Independence Territorial Army Act was passed in 1948 and the Territorial Army was formally inaugurated by the first Indian Governor General Shri C Rajagopalachari on 09 Oct 1949. This date is being celebrated as Prime Minister's TA Day Parade every year.
The Territorial Army initially had various types of units such as Armed Regt (TA), Infantry Battalion (TA), Air Defence (TA), Med Regt (TA), Engineers Field Park Coy (TA), Signal Regiment (TA), EME Workshop (TA), Coast Battery (TA), ASC GT Coy (TA), ASC Compo Pl (TA), AMC Field Ambulance (TA), by 1972 these units have either been disbanded or converted to Regular Army except Inf Bn (TA).
The Territorial Army is part of Regular Army and its present role is to relieve the Regular Army from static duties and assist civil administration in dealing with natural calamities and maintenance of essential services in situations where life of the communities is affected or the Security of the Country is threatened and to provide units for Regulars Army as and when required.
Presently the Territorial Army has a strength of approx. 40000 persons comprising of Departmental TA units such as Railway, IOC, ONGC, Telecommunication and General Hospital and the non Departmental TA units of Infantry Bn (TA) and Ecological Bn (TA) affiliated to various Infantry Regiments.
The TA units were actively involved in 1962, 1965 and 1971 operations. The "Terriers" have also taken part in OP-PAWAN in Srilanka, OP RAKSHAK in Punjab & J&K, OP RHINO and OP BAJRANG in North East in a most active manner. Departmental units came to the aid of the civil authorities during Industrial unrest and natural calamities, most famous being earthquake in Latoor (Maharastra), Uttarkashi in Garhwal Himalaya and the Super Cyclone in Orissa. The Ecological units have arrested man made environmental degradation by planting 2.5 crore trees over 20,000 hectare of land in Mussoori Hills & Pithoragarh (UP), Bikaner & Jaisalmer (Rajasthan) and ravines of Chambal in Madhya Pradesh.
Men of TA have taken active part in various adventure activities, famous one being scaling of Mt Tengchen Khang (6010 Mtr) in West Sikkim by Jt-Indo-British TA Mountaineering Expedition in May 98.
The officer and men of the Territorial Army have been decorated for their gallantry and distinguished services. So for they have earned 02 Ati Vishisht Seva Medal (AVSM), 15 VSM, 05 Vir Chakra, 13 Sena Medal, 25 Mentioned-in-Despatches and 43 COAS commendation card.
Many industrialists, politicians and eminent personalities have been members of the TA. The force also has the honour to appoint 11 officers as Hony ADC to the President of India.

Study by David Aboody and Brett Trueman finds that shares of market's top-performing companies rise steeply just before earnings announcements, but then fall just as steeply afterward
As if the recent widespread decline in stocks hasn't been bad enough for investors, a new study has now uncovered a worrisome hazard even among the market's best-performing companies, the top one percent in terms of stock gains over the previous year.
The hazard consists in buying shares of those top winners just before they announce their earnings.
The study, drawing on almost 35 years' worth of data, from 1971 to 2005, finds smaller investors especially prone to do this. And it also reveals the tactic not only unlikely to yield quick gains but likely to produce losses instead.
The new research, by David Aboody and Brett Trueman of UCLA Anderson School of Management and Reuven Lehavy of the University of Michigan, finds that, while shares of the market's top-performing companies rise quickly on average in the five trading days before their earnings announcement, they fall just as precipitously in the five following days.
According to the study, "The top percentile of stocks in terms of the past 12-month price performance (sometimes referred to as past winners) experiences a significant average market-adjusted return of 1.58% during the week prior to their earnings announcement (the pre-announcement period) and a significant average market-adjusted return of minus 1.86% in the week after (the post announcement period). By way of contrast, the average pre-announcement market-adjusted return for our entire sample of stocks is a meager .3%, while the average post-announcement market-adjusted return is a negligible .1%."
Adds Prof. Trueman: "While it may seem sensible or even clever to anticipate quick gains from latching onto earnings announcements of the market's biggest past winners, our findings suggest it generally doesn't work. In one analysis we did, we found that investors who bought shares of top-performers on the final day before their earnings announcements were behind a week later by a market-adjusted amount of close to 2% on average and that they were behind by about 1.5% on average a month later. And this is with a very tempting group of stocks, a group that had been rising very impressively."
In trying to account for this surprising pattern, the authors consider whether it reflects a tendency of stock analysts to revise their earnings forecasts for past winners upward in the week before earnings announcements and downward in the following week. But their extensive analysis finds "no evidence to support this potential explanation. Less than 2% of our sample observations are characterized by both an upward revision in analysts' forecasts in the week prior to earnings announcements and a negative earnings surprise or downward forecast revision during the week thereafter. Moreover, dropping these few observations from our sample does not significantly affect the magnitude of the pre- and post-announcement returns."
Having determined that a disproportionate number of pre-announcement trades of past winners' shares are by small buyers (trades under $50,000) and medium buyers (trades between $50,000 and $100,000), the authors conclude that it is the relative lack of sophistication among these buyers that accounts for steep pre-announcement rises and post-announcement falls. As the professors put it, "Smaller investors, faced with limited time and resources, are more likely to invest in stocks that draw their attention. Among stocks capturing these investors' attention are arguably those that have increased sharply in price. Moreover, their attention is likely to be heightened just before earnings releases due to media focus on the upcoming announcements. Price pressure from these investors could partially explain the positive pre-announcement returns. A lessening of that pressure subsequent to the earnings announcements could, in part, explain the post-announcement return reversal."
While viewing their study as conveying a cautionary message, the authors do provide evidence that the pattern of sharp rises and falls they uncover could have been used profitably by sophisticated investors. To test this, they focused on a subset of stocks that announced earnings after normal trading hours. The optimal strategy, they write, would have involved "purchasing our subset of stocks five days before their earnings announcements, closing the positions at the open on [the following day] then initiating short positions which are closed at the end of day 5." This would have generated market-adjusted return over the 10-day period, they note, that would have exceeded the imposition of both the bid-ask spread and brokerage commissions."
The study's initial data set consisted of 293,630 quarterly earnings announcements from January 1, 1971 through September 30, 2005. The professors computed each stock's raw returns for the 12-month period ending on the last day of the previous quarter, ranked the stocks in ascending order according to their returns, and partitioned the firms into deciles.They then partitioned the top decile into 10 percentiles according to prior 12-month return. The top percentile's return, they found, was almost twice that of the corresponding return for the next-highest percentile; the average five-day pre-announcement market-adjusted rise for this top percentile was more than 60 percent higher than that of the top decile as a whole, and its five-day post-announcement market-adjusted decline was more than twice that of the top decile's. Given the dramatic difference in returns, the professors focused particular attention on the top percentile.
In conclusion, they observe that the pattern of buying encountered in the study is "reminiscent of the adage 'buy on the rumor, sell on the fact.' There is a difference here, though, in that the 'rumor' is simply that there is an upcoming earnings announcement, not that the news will necessarily be better than expected." In that sense, the professors add, the pattern is similar to the price rise in initial public offerings that commonly occurs "in advance of the ending of the quiet period, with the 'rumor' being only that the lead banker's analyst will shortly be issuing a research report, not that the content of the report will be any more positive than expected."

Latest Skin News
WEDNESDAY, Oct. 9 (HealthDay News) -- Face transplants -- some with remarkable results -- are increasingly becoming an option for people with devastating burns and other severe facial injuries. A new study finds that measuring five specific facial landmarks before the surgery may help better match donors and recipients.
"Although there have been many advances made in facial transplantation, reproducible methods of predicting donor-to-recipient match would be very useful, as it can take many months to locate an appropriate donor," study co-author Dr. Bohdan Pomahac said in an American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) news release.
"We found that if certain facial measurements were off by as little as 1 millimeter between donor and recipient, they were not the best match for transplant surgery."
Pomahac and colleagues conducted 61 virtual face transplantations representing donors and recipients of different ages and genders. They took nine soft-tissue measurements from each face before transplantation. Each virtual recipient's appearance after transplantation was evaluated by 20 independent reviewers.
The researchers found that a 1-millimeter difference in five soft-tissue measurements led the reviewers to rate a facial transplant recipient as looking "very disfigured," rather than "normal" or "mildly disfigured," according to the study, which is scheduled for presentation Saturday at the annual meeting of the ASPS, in San Diego.
The five soft-tissue measurements were:
- Down the middle of the forehead,
- The inner corner of the eyes where the upper and lower eyelids meet,
- The outer corner of the eyes where the upper and lower eyelids meet,
- The distance or area from the nose to the chin,
- Mouth width.
"Our study provides early evidence for the importance of soft-tissue measurements in the planning of facial transplantation," Pomahac said. "With future improvements to immune suppression and increased donor availability, matching soft-tissue landmarks may be an additional factor used to optimize post-transplant outcomes."
Conclusions of studies presented at medical meetings should be viewed as preliminary until they are published in a peer-reviewed journal.

Each summer, around July 1, Topaz and I are forced from the wooded trail which we run each day. The deer flies hatch and they are relentless. I can usually get by for a few days by spraying DEET every few miles upon myself and covering my face and head with a fine screen.
Topaz, however, cannot take care of himself.
I won't run paved roads with Topaz in the summer. Only a half dozen times a winter do I run roads with him. In the summer the heat is reflected off of the asphalt and he would suffer greatly. Not to mention that he would have to be on leash and the pounding isn't good on either of our joints.
Monday we ran upon the gravel road near my home. It goes through a wildlife sanctuary where Bald Eagles and nesting, living and feeding. There are Sand Hill Cranes, many other birds, many wildflowers, plenty of ponds for which Topaz can soak...but it is oh so boring. 7 miles of gravel, cars flying by, same old same old. I couldn't stand it.
Tuesday we went back to the wooded trail. Oh my heaven's. Topaz was a cloud of deer flies running down the trail with four legs. It was horrifying. He would stop dead in his tracks, roll over onto his back, do a back dance, while snapping at deer flies in the air. It was awful. I felt horrible dragging him out there.
When Topaz jumped into the back of my vehicle I brushed all of the deer flies out of his coat. There were hundreds. They were full of blood after feasting upon him.
When we arrived home I opened up the hatch, Topaz jumped out and there were 36 .. yes, I counted, 36 full, bloodied, dead deer flies that he had gnawed out of his coat. I guess I didn't get them all. I was resigned to run on the gravel.
Yesterday I ran the gravel and the deer flies had arrived there as well. Thousands were landing and biting Topaz. He was going crazy, biting in the air, rolling them off of him upon the gravel, soaking in the water trying to rid himself of them. There were layers upon layers of them embedded in his ears. I wanted to cry for him. I wanted to cry for me. He told me that a day running with deer flies is better than a day of no running at all :)
I went to Marties Farm and Feed yesterday to see if there was anything I could do for Topaz. Sure enough, the owner told me he uses Ultra Shield on his dogs, horses and himself! Well, with a name like ULTRA Shield I had to buy it. I was skeptical. The label reads that 98.40% of the ingredients are inert. It states that it is sweat resistant and waterproof for 17 days! It repels bees, wood ticks, deer ticks, mosquitoes, deer flies, gnats, chiggers, fleas, lice. etc. Too good to be true? Well, it smells good too! It is lightly scented with citronella. It comes in a trigger pump bottle, not an aerosol.
This morning before our run I began to spray Topaz. I sprayed his coat from the back to the shoulders, working the repellent into his coat. For his face I sprayed it onto a sock and then lightly went around his eyes and nose, his mouth. He didn't mind at all. He rolled over so that I could get his stomach and legs as well. It isn't greasy or oily. It actually has coat conditioners including aloe and lanolin. His coat looks nice.
OK, I decided we'd give it a try at the wooded trail. Out he jumped from the car, onto the trail. I held my breath. The deer flies found us. They were ricocheting off of my arms, legs, screen, sunglasses. They were hovering around Topaz. Hover, hover, hover...they weren't landing. THEY WERE NOT LANDING UPON HIM! I couldn't believe it. Oh happy days! We ran and ran. He was still a cloud of deer flies with legs, but they didn't bite. They just buzzed him. He never stopped to roll, he never bit at them in the air. They didn't bother him at all. He soaked in multiple ponds. I watched his ears closely. Would they now attack? No. Not one deer fly landed upon his coat.
I don't know if one application will really last 17 days, I don't know if it will irritate his skin in the future but for today..
I'm sold.
I'm happy.
Topaz is happy.

This is a cute card I made with a coffee/tea theme to it. I love this house mouse image and I actually blew it up to fit on a 4x6 print out because I wanted it bigger. I then used my Mark-it markers to color it. I also stamped those cute little flowers on the mug to add a little design to the cup and outlined them in the copper stickles, which I might add, is awe soo lovely in real life!! The background paper is so warm and yummy and had a chocolately feel to it, so I thought ummmmm.... coffee and chocolate!

Beautiful Journey to the Past
Ok, I don't normally scrap lift, but when I received the new CTMH cattie the front cover lo I knew I wanted to scrap lift for this picture of my grandmother holding my mother at 2 months. Now, I must admit, it is not a total lift, but if you were to put the two next to each other you would see things that were similar. So I must give credit to CTMH for the partial lift. Funny, thing with lifting with me, is that even when I try to lift I just can't do it totally, always have to "just be me". I thought this turned out just lovely and the letters I made with my cricut. Stamped them and added a a touch of blue glitter pen to them too. I just love doing vintage type pages!!

Computer Worm Uses Fake FedEx Delivery Notification Emails to Infect PCs, Warns PandaLabs
Fake delivery message takes advantage of holiday shopping season, contains Kuluoz worm and bogus antivirus program
Dec 05, 2012, 10:21 ET
ORLANDO, Fla., Dec. 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- PandaLabs, Panda Security's anti-malware laboratory, has detected a new campaign that may compromise user security. This new email scam, which coincides with the holiday shopping season, involves a fake FedEx delivery message aimed at tricking users into downloading the Kuluoz.A computer worm and a fake antivirus program called "System Progressive Protection."
The spam message purports to come from FedEx. You can see an example here: http://press.pandasecurity.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/FEDEX.jpg
The message contains a link to download a 'receipt' for the user to collect the package that has supposedly been delivered to them. If the user clicks the link, they are taken to a Web page which downloads a .zip file named "Postal Receipt." This file contains an executable file with a Word icon that downloads a variant of the Kuluoz.A worm, which then tries to connect to a remote server to receive commands from attackers and perform several malicious actions on the affected computer, including running files.
Once run, the worm opens the notepad, displaying a blank page to make users believe they are running a legitimate file. In addition, it downloads a fake antivirus program called "System Progressive Protection," which simulates a computer scan. The scan reports a number of infections, and prompts the user to buy the antivirus to remove them. However, this is just a scam aimed at stealing victims' money as none of the reported infections are real, nor is the 'antivirus software.'
A screenshot is available at: http://press.pandasecurity.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/System-Progressive-Protection.jpg.
"With the holiday season well underway, cyber-criminals are leveraging this time of the year to spread malicious emails aimed at tricking users and stealing their money," said Luis Corrons, technical director of PandaLabs.
"Once again, cyber-crooks are using social engineering techniques to spread malware," explained Corrons. "Even if users haven't purchased anything and aren't waiting for a delivery, they are curious by nature and keep falling into this type of trap. Holiday seasons like Christmas usually bring an increase in online shopping and present criminals with the opportunity to target a larger than usual number of victims."
PandaLabs advises users against clicking any links included in email messages or running attached files that come from unknown sources. In addition, consumers should have an effective security solution installed capable of detecting both known and new malware strains, like cloud-based Panda Cloud Antivirus, available for free at www.cloudantivirus.com.
About PandaLabs
Since 1990, PandaLabs, Panda Security's malware research laboratory, has been working to detect and classify malware in order to protect consumers and companies against new Internet threats. To do so, PandaLabs uses Collective Intelligence, a cloud-based proprietary system that leverages the knowledge gathered from Panda's user community to automatically detect, analyze and classify the more than 73,000 new malware strains that appear every day. This automated malware classification is complemented through the work of an international team with researchers specialized each in a specific type of malware (viruses, worms, Trojans, spyware and other attacks) to provide global coverage.

Resettling and Rebuilding: The Displaced Persons in Post-War Europe explores the tumultuous period across the continent following World War II. Millions of refugees who were on the move had their homes destroyed in the fighting, or had fled their homes in war-torn territories. Still others, like the Jews and others considered as "undesirable" by the Nazis, had been forcibly removed from their homes, and sent to ghettos and concentration camps, which had just been liberated at the end of the war. Sadly, we see a similar situation today with refugees from modern wars and genocides, like the Syrians and the Royhingas, who have also lost their homes and are trying to flee to safety.
Since the lack of housing made governing enormous transient populations difficult, the Allies created "Displaced Persons" (DP) camps to address the issue in their Occupation Zones. The DP camps provided shelter as well as the most basic needs of the day: clean water, food, sanitation and medical care. Any large building or facility was an ideal venue for use as DP housing, even former concentration camps and Nazi barracks.
Despite all they had suffered during the Holocaust, the Jews still faced anti-Semitism in the camps. When made aware of this, General Dwight D. Eisenhower tried to ameliorate the situation by ordering the establishment of safer, exclusive camps for them, and an increase in their rations. Later, President Harry Truman made issuing visas to the Displaced Persons a higher priority over non-DPs in regards to immigration quotas.
The exhibit also looks at the various governmental and charitable organizations which helped administer and supply the DP camps. It took Europe a long time to recover from the physical damage caused World War II. Some people remained in DP camps for years after the war ended.

You know the Nike FuelBand as a sleek black band that's a half-step removed from a Livestrong bracelet. That wasn't always the case, though. Some looked totally different from the finished product, like this early mockup that basically got the FuelBand off the ground.
Austin Carr was out at the Nike campus to report for Fast Company's Nike profile, and got access to a bunch of prototypes: "I saw a number of early FuelBand prototypes, from concepts designed for the leg or upper arm to ones with e-ink displays that resembled an Amazon Kindle screen. There were hundreds of prototypes imagined throughout the process."
The early and crucial one, though, was this crude green and black band, which is the first prototype CEO Mark parker saw. He was impressed enough by it that he basically sent the team out to build it on the spot. At which point, Astro design EVP Kyle Swen told Carr, the engineers saw the mock ups and "they were like, 'No fucking way." [FastCo Design]

Dear officials from the City of Beacon, NY: You are stupid. (Update: OK, you are not that stupid).
Yes, stupid. Otherwise, how could anyone explain the reason behind the closure of the Retro Arcade Museum, a place whose only sin is to have some old pinball machines in it?
Actually, that's exactly the reason: The officials of the City of Beacon closed it after 18 months using an archaic law that declares pinball illegal. Why? Because machines can give you a free game, so that could be considered gambling.
What is next, banning comic books because they are immoral? Perhaps rock'n'roll, because the devil can get into your body when you dance? Unbelievable.
If you are a Beacon resident, a New York State resident, or you just have a working brain over you shoulders, please write to the City of Beacon here. You can use this polite letter:
Subject: Save the Retro Arcade Museum
To the Beacon City Council:
I am writing to you today in protest of the closing of the Retro Arcade located at 412 Main Street. By choosing to follow the letter of an obscure and obsolete law you have committed an egregious violation of basic human rights. In what can only be the execution of some political agenda, Fred Bobrow's life's work and his very livelihood are at stake. In no way has his business had a negative effect on the area. Quite the opposite in fact, this establishment could bring revenue into your city in these troubled times. In today's world something like pinball being deemed illegal and dangerous is ridiculous. That this law is being enforced is utterly draconian. The public's eye is on you now. It is time to cut your losses. I respectfully urge you to repeal this ridiculous law quickly before it is too late to save this unique establishment.
(your name here)
You can also join their Facebook group here.
Update: Apparently, the story is not as clear cut as CNN reported it. Beacon's Major argues that they didn't close the arcade because it had pinballs. They closed it because the residents and business filed complains about the noise:
I understand the frustration people are all feeling about the retro-arcade business but take a step back and think for one minute. The CNN story was bogus and misguided. It totally hyped the emotional side of the story and left out the real reasons for the closure and challenges in re-writing the law.
The issue is noise and only noise. The business next to the arcade and the residents above it had a legitimate complaint about NOISE. The owner changed his business model from one that was legal to one that was not permitted. A complaint was filed with the building department. Should the City of Beacon ignore the complaints from its businesses and residents and allow an illegal operation to continue? Which laws do you suggest we enforce and which shall we ignore? There are always two sides to a story and two groups ready to complain.
I am a huge supporter of the retro-arcade business. I think it is great for Beacon's Main Street economy. I helped the owner to try to keep the business open but in the end when complaints are filed the law must be enforced. Meanwhile, according to the arcade owner, the landlord of the building took several actions and intended to deny a renewal of the lease – claiming that other tenants were disturbed by the noise.
Knowing his business was at stake I tried to act quickly. My next step was to change the ordinance to allow a vintage arcade to operate without causing problems to adjacent businesses. I made phone calls to help him to relocate. I had the city planner rewrite the ordinance to allow the council to give it special permission to operate (a special use permit). The council worked to find a way to allow any vintage arcade business to operate without opening the door to other problems identified by other municipalities in their laws, and to protect the adjacent businesses and apartments from noise impacts. We also had to protect the arcade business owner from being closed down again a second time due to frivolous or malicious complaints. We rejected ideas such as making the room sound proof and ended up leaving it to the business owner to reduce the noise in any way he wanted. Enforcement would be objectified by a decibel meter reading taken at adjacent unites.
I am sure if you lived above a business that had constant pinging sounds you would want the city council to protect your quality of life. I am also sure if you owned a business you would want the municipality to write laws that would protect your right to stay in business (like the arcade owner). Well to get all of this right, it sometimes takes time.
We all hope we can resolve this quickly so this very fascinating and beneficial business can open again.
Steve Gold, mayor
Since I lived on top of a noisy place for a year—the dreadful Radegast Hall & Biergarten in Williamsburg, full of retarded frat boys, city kids, and hipsters having dry sausages, stale fries, and beer—I can understand the complains and the closure. Let's just hope that they find a way to make pinball fans—like myself—and neighbors happy. [Crazyflipperfingers]

Organic Growth
Diverse Cross Island Farms enters 11th year, moves toward profitibility
After a career as a psychologist, Dani R. Baker never thought she would own the only diversified certified organic farm in Jefferson County, but since establishing Cross Island Farms on Wellesley Island in 2006 she and her partner, David Belding, have turned a small vegetable garden into a diversified farm with about 100 different vegetables, livestock, and her newest endeavor, an edible forest garden. This month we sit down with Ms. Baker to discuss the place of small, niche farms in the north country's agriculture industry. [Read more…]

Dancing tango since: When Dean started taking tango lessons in February 2011, little did he know that just two years later he'd be performing in a show (Dean performs a choreographed dance with Sylvia Flores in Close Embrace: A Tango Love Story.) "Not in my wildest dreams," he says.
Why tango: He had a growing interest in Latin American culture and, in fact, started teaching himself Spanish. During winter vacations in Mexico he noticed that dancing was a big part of the lifestyle and that intrigued him. "Salsa didn't appeal to me," he says, "but tango seemed classier." So he started taking lessons at various Bay Area venues, then found Debbie and John on Tango Mango.
Favorite part: Meeting new people. And connecting with everyone. "Sometimes it's not even talking but sharing a nice moment with the music in close physical contact, it's very enriching. I get depressed if I miss a day."
About Debbie & John: "They're my teachers now. There's so much to pick up about this dance, and they're very encouraging, they both step in to help. I don't think you can get that kind of attention and encouragement anywhere else.
Anything else? For Dean, preparing for Close Embrace has been a real challenge. "Many hours have gone into getting those two minutes to a level I'd be happy with. I just want to put on a great show for everybody. Debbie has been very encouraging and supportive in championing my desires."

(USA Today) Dozens of e-mails released by the White House reveal that Obama administration officials were behind the crafting of a false narrative about the attack in Benghazi, Libya. The communications raise questions about who called the shots and why, say an analyst and a lawmaker involved in the investigation.
According to the documents, officials at the State Department, CIA and White House national security staff heavily revised a CIA memo to remove all references to Islamic extremists known to have participated in the attack on the U.S. consulate in Libya.
The revisions also removed the CIA's claims that the agency had issued repeated warnings to the State Department about the threat of al-Qaeda-linked militants in Benghazi.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick has received death threats and the dubious title of the most disliked player in the NFL this week.
But there are plenty of people who like what Kaep's been doing, too: Not standing during the national anthem over issues of equity and police brutality.
And now, the QB has an Oakland artist who's got his back.
A muralist who signed the work "FLC" painted a striking image of Kaepernick on what appears to be the back of a garbage structure at 22nd Street and Telegraph Avenue. Across the athlete's face are the words "We Got Your Back." A mural of Ray Charles is on the other side of the wall, and the entire art piece is a block or two away from the Oakland Burmese Mission Baptist Church and a main thoroughfare in the downtown-to-Temescal district.
The image caught the eye of Pendarvis Harshaw, 29, a journalist and senior communications associate at PolicyLink, who saw it on Thursday walking home from work. After tweeting out a picture of it, Harshaw garnered nearly 1,000 retweets in 15 hours.
"The illustration speaks volumes," Harshaw said. "It's about the community rallying around the athlete." But he also noted how significant that is in Oakland, home to the rival football team, the Raiders. Oaklanders usually never tip their hats across the bay to the San Francisco 49ers.
Kaerpernick has indeed divided the country over what constitutes patriotism and received scorn in less progressive parts of the United States. But the biracial football player is a hero to many in Oakland. Several high school students are now starting to grow out their hair in full Afros, which Kaepernick sported a couple of weeks ago. The city of Oakland is comprised of roughly 30 percent African Americans, compared to the rest of the Bay Area, which has just about 7 percent, Census data shows.
Most recently, his coach, Chip Kelly, who is white, told reporters Thursday afternoon that he also believes his quarterback is standing up, or sitting down, for the right reasons.
"He's shedding light on a situation that is heinous, it shouldn't happen in this country," Kelly said, regarding police shootings of black men. "You look at what's going on in Tulsa and Charlotte in the last two nights — it's an issue that's in the forefront of our country. It needs to be addressed. It needs to be taken care of because it's not right."

Brown, 74, is maintaining a full work schedule and is not expected to have significant side effects from the treatment, which is expected to be completed in early January, his office said.

Another Friday has come and for me the best time to start a weight loss plan is on Friday, you have a little time to adjust before Monday, so if you fail on a Friday its a lot less pressure than cheating on a Monday (I think… It works that way in my head anyway :/)
Youtube is one of my great addictions and time wasters but it definitely gives you great motivation to begin your weight loss/healthy lifestyle journey and I mean JOOOUUUUURRRNNNNNNEEEEYYYY! As it takes a lot of time and willpower and is something that you will have to continue on for the rest of your life.
- Kayla Cupcake
This girl lost 100lbs! Even losing 10lbs is a struggle. You get to see her lose and maintain the weight over time. The best thing about her is that she is so relatable. She doesn't just eat salads and workout 4 time a week. Which is what you should probably do but to just begin with a sudden change of everything rarely works out. She even lost all her weight without working out! Definitely recommend her, she's honest about weight gain, weight loss and provide a different approach to eating for weight loss that everyone may not necessarily be aware of.
2. Abigale Kirsten
There is only really one video about weight loss that is helpful but man is it big. It has reached 15.5 million views and the comments (although there are a lot of doubters) are filled with people who her tips have massively helped.
3. Glamfun
Although this is not necessary a weight loss specific channel and she didn't need to lose a lot of weight she does small challenges in order to improve her health and reports the difference that even just a week can do. My favourite one is "what 500 Ab crunches did to me" even though I have yet to try it
Hope this helped,
Until Next Time,
