Getting Started
Power supplies generate noise that can reduce the performance of a design and interfere with other devices. Signals themselves can interfere with each other and reduce the performance of the system.
Knowing how the system functions, where the noisy lines are and where the sensitive lines with a low signal to noise ratio are in relation to each other can help optimise the board layout and avoid more problems later in the design. EMI can be treated later on by adding filters at noisy points, or using metal enclosures that block radiation, but these can be expensive options and add time and cost to the development process through more testing and re-spins of the board. With edge effects and connectors being a key part of the EMI issue, these re-spins can even involve moving key I/O lines. Taking EMI effects into account at the start of the board design can significantly improve the quality of the end product and avoid any nasty surprises.
Power supply
The board layout determines the success or failure of every power supply project, from the function to the EMI and thermal behaviour. The design of a switching power supply layout is not difficult but it is often left until too late in the design process.
A good layout on the first prototype does not add to cost, but actually saves significant resources in EMI filters, mechanical shielding, EMI test time and PCB runs. Switching supplies can radiate at frequencies that are very obvious, affecting nearby radios, but good layout can avoid the need to shield such systems.
The EMI problems come from fast changing current loops, so avoiding these hot loops or making sure they are not fast changing can make all the difference in the design. Different power supply topologies such as buck or flyback converters create different AC loops, but carefully positioning these, sometimes within the layers of a board, can help significantly. This helps to shield any radiating effects and minimises the need for filtering or expensive metal enclosures. Making sure these loops are away from the vias that connect the different layers and away from sensitive lines with low signal-to-noise ratio also helps reduce the impact the power lines have on the rest of the system.
Signal lines
The biggest problem for the signal lines is the noise from the I/O pins, which often form a large antenna. In a synchronous design, all the signal switching happens on the same edge and this can create a large noise spike at regular intervals. With the clock rates increasing, these signals become more important to address in the board design.
Capacitive and inductive crosstalk happens with traces that run parallel for even a short distance. The noise is proportional to the parallel distance, the frequency, the amplitude of the voltage swing on the source, and the impedance of the victim, and inversely proportional to the separation distance.
This can be minimised by keeping noisy lines away from more sensitive traces and by avoiding running noisy traces on the outside edge of the board. Keeping noisy traces grouped together surrounded by ground lines will also help to reduce noise as any coupling is to ground rather than to other signal lines. This can be particularly important for the I/O lines where switching generates noise and can radiate out of the system. Signals that may become victims of noise should have the return ground run underneath them. This reduces the impedance, reducing the noise voltage and any radiating area.
Clock tree
A third source of noise is the oscillator circuit, where the oscillator swings rail to rail. In addition to the fundamental frequency, harmonics are introduced on the output side. Keeping the crystal and its tank circuits separate from other components and traces on the PCB, and keeping the loop areas small usually avoids this problem and prevents signals from coupling into other components such as large inductors.
Many EMI-related crosstalk problems happen around the crystal, so keeping a minimum separation of at least 2cm between the oscillator and other components helps to reduce any sensitivity. This usually happens as part of a zone (see below).
Radiating antennas
Any trace that is around 8cm or longer that is unterminated forms an antenna that radiates in the FM band. This is easily addressed by avoiding long signal lines and terminating them with a series resistor to provide damping without slowing down the data transmission. This is where the layout of the board feeds back into the netlist in an iterative process.
Lines that bend too sharply can also radiate from the corners, so the design tool rule checks should flag up where there are sharp bends. These corners are also risk factors for the yield in the manufacturing process, so avoiding them gives additional benefits.
Creating zones of similar functions can help focus the requirements for the board layout. Keeping all the analogue elements in one area, shielded by a split ground plane or with ground lines designed to protect the zone from the power or digital circuitry, can reduce the sensitivity of the design to coupled noise. This also allows more time to be spent on designing the analogue area of the board, while the digital elements are less sensitive to noise. Similarly keeping the power components in one area of the board, well away from other sensitive components can also help.
Auto routing
While an automated routing tool may seem helpful, taking these factors into account and constraining the tool can help. Providing automatic routing within zones on the board can help speed up the layout process while at the same time minimise the impact of EMI in the design. Auto routing may not pick up on long signal lines or noisy lines that run alongside susceptible ones, particularly on the I/O. Being aware of the impact of EMI on these lines can help tweak the automated design.
Tools such as DesignSpark PCB will provide Design Rule Checking to ensure that lines are not too close together and do not curve too sharply, but they will not necessarily help with the EMI issues that the designer is facing. Paying attention to the susceptible lines, parallel signal traces and long strips and finding a way to optimise these manually will help significantly in improving the quality and performance of the design.
EMI is one of the key design criteria, but just relying on automated place and route and Design Rule Checking on a board layout can leave the project with problems later on. Being aware of the EMI issues the design is likely to face, and creating zones that can be automatically routed combines the value of automated design with the added value of the design expertise. All this can help optimise the design and avoid costly re-spins of the board, additional filters and even expensive enclosures. Taking EMI into account right from the start of the board design helps keep costs and timescales under control to produce the best possible product.

"The melting pot of America was not seething with resentment, anger, conflict or division in building that robot.
It was boiling with cooperation, collaboration, leadership, vision, community and purpose in building that robot."
Much has been written and talked about with respect to the so-called Millennial Generation.
Depending on your perspective they are either the most ridiculous, lazy and self-entitled generation in history, or the most creative, empathetic and well-rounded generation in history.
Somewhere along the line of generational history I suspect the G.I., the Silent, the Baby Boom and the Baby Boom generation were either celebrated or dismissed for one reason or another.
For those of you keeping track the Population Reference Bureau goes back to the late 1800's to describe the Hard Timers and New Worlders generation.
I can only imagine what people at the time thought of those generation of young Americans!
The next generation that will come after the Millennial Generation is the group that my children, The Dude and The Daughter, occupy: Generation Z.
Or, as Wikipedia alternately refers to them: Post-Millennials, the iGeneration, Founders, Plurals, or the Homeland Generation.
Further, in describing the characteristics of Generation Z, Wikipedia states "A significant aspect of this generation is the widespread usage of the Internet from a young age. Members of Generation Z are typically thought of as being comfortable with technology, and interacting on social media websites for a significant portion of their socializing. Some commentators have suggested that growing up through the Great Recession has given the cohort a feeling of unsettlement and insecurity."
I can't tell you whether my kids have a feeling of unsettlement and insecurity.
I know that many Americans have feelings of unsettlement and insecurity with respect to the future of this country.
I am here to assure you that those concerns should be allayed when contemplating the future of America in the hands of Generation Z.
This past weekend I had the distinct honor and privilege to join with hundreds of parents at a suburban school outside of St. Paul for the First Tech Challenge/High Tech Kids Challenge.
The event featured scores of school teams engaged in a high-tech competition involving robots that they built, programmed and operated through multiple rounds of required tasks to demonstrate their technological skills and abilities.
This post isn't, however, about robots.
It's about the young boys and girls that built them.
To be sure the robots were amazing. They hummed, whirred, spun around, moved back and forth, lifted platforms, carried objects and threw them into small confined spaces.
To a guy with a C minus intellect whose vision of creating a drawer of dressers devolved into a wobbly corner shelf during carpentry class I was blown away by the accomplishment of these young people in their robot creations.
But, I was more blown away by the hundreds of people inside that auditorium that day.
If we viewed the world only through the lens of the television news, read about it in our newspapers or learned about it from the radio, it would be easy to imagine America on fire.
We could be excused for believing that our nation's diverse tapestry is being torn apart by a clash of race and civilization that is rooted in hate, fear, disrespect and intolerance.
Not being naïve I know that there are times and moments in America where that tapestry has been torn.
It has become frayed in some corners of America. In fact, the middle of that fabric has become weaker as its strands have been pulled and pushed apart by conflict, anger and misunderstanding.
Still, in the room that day were boys and girls of every size, color, shape and ability. Big smiles, handshakes, high-fives, hugs and words of encouragement came and went from black kids to white kids.
Joy and disappointment, celebration and despair, were in the shoulders and steps of every child that day from kids born in America, those born elsewhere and those whose ethnicity spanned the globe.
The robots they built were amazing.
The effort that went into building them is even more amazing.
Because to be successful at the end, one must be successful in the beginning.
Success, defined for this story, is children making the decision to work together to create something good and meaningful.
To work together without regard or consideration for the color of the fingers of the boy or girl using a tool to put two pieces of metal together.
To work together not noting the accent of the girl or boy who is reading them instructions about the next steps to program a robot.
To work together not caring if the boy or girl next to them was born in America or came to America who is trying to manage the controls to move the robot's parts in a way that makes it move back, forward, right, left, up and down.
In every auditorium in America that pot boils.
In every classroom. On every playground.
That pot boils.
I believe every generation of Americans is the greatest generation.
Every generation has its flaws, weaknesses, shortcomings and success and failures.
It's not being the perfect generation that has made America great.
It's the imperfect generations that strive for perfection that has made America great.
In that auditorium that day I was reminded of that as I nearly fell over from screaming and cheering that a little robot that my Generation Z Daughter and her friends and classmates had conceived and conspired together to build lifted a big blue ball up off the ground.
It will be the same generation that someday will lift the big blue ball called Earth ever further.

In February 2020, I was fortunate enough to be forewarned of hidden agendas of the forthcoming events, which have taken and continue to take place relating to the 'planned emic'. My friend and I had booked a 3 weeks holiday in Acapulco, Mexico. The first week of this holiday, we attended the 'Anarchapulco' event, learning more about crypto and listening to courageous whistleblowers speak out about the corrupt world leaders, the 'maxine' and the globalists' plan to depopulate humanity. Scary to say the least, but we were meant to be there and hear this. Divine placing and timing, as we made it back home just before lockdowns occurred.
Amongst many great, courageous speakers, were Dr. Ron Paul, Dr. Rashid Buttar, who passionately warned us against the 'maxine', (online you have to use code if you are speaking against their narrative), and the cool dude rogue, John McAfee, what a life this man has lived, I really do hope he is still alive.
McAfee made his millions with his antivirus software and is, (I don't believe he is gone), very involved with blockchain technology. Long story short, the establishment, forbid him as a US citizen, from entering the US claiming tax avoidance, (more like he refused to play their game), so he was on the run for many years. Recently on social media, he publicly stated that if ever he was announced dead, he would have been deliberately killed off and 'the deadman's switch' would be activated.
This morning at 08.00 BST, 23/07/2021 the '$WHACKD' timer zero'd out, apparently many transactions suddenly started taking place on the ethereum blockchain. I'm eager to know what the outcome will be!
The establishment, despite their grievances with McAfee, had continued to use his anti-virus software for their computers. They thought we were stupid! Over time McAfee accumulated evidence of their heinous acts and crimes against humanity, and for security reasons loaded it on to the blockchain, ready for release and cannot be stopped!
Juicy added info:
John McAfee activated a 'Kill Switch' when the announcement was made that he had committed suicide in his jail cell. The Amazing Team of analysts at the Awakening Channel HAS DISCOVERED THE EXACT LOCATION AND DATA OF THIS KILL SWITCH. It appears that the Kill Switch is transferring documents via binary code non-stop since the switch was activated.
An account that has been long inactive with the name 'EPSTEIN' Ethereum Token Smart Contract goes live and starts sending out messages to masked IP's. Expect the data dump from multiple mirrors. Terabytes of data proving deep corruption from the man who is one of the most talented hackers of all time. The only way to stop the flood of information is to shut down the net. 👀👀👀
Ethereum Account Link
Are we ready for the truth? This spiritual, mind, bioweapon warfare is heating up and appears to becoming more scary BUT only if you buy into the fear! The information we were given in Acapulco, removed any fear for me, of what is playing out now. I follow what I can of the worldwide digital warriors and the alliance, even the psychics and remote viewers are on board.
Following many telegram groups, (Telegram, one of very few platforms that are not censoring the truthers), and some incredible informational sites, I have been able to keep updated with the US on a daily basis – what happens in the USA affects the whole world. If you're going to research -go to the top!
I hadn't used FB for a long time, the energy from it makes me feel physically sick, but just after Christmas, I reactivated my account, the sole reason, to blast the hell out of it and try wake up a few of my family members and friends. It only took 4 weeks to earn my badge of honour – my FaceBook account removed after 3 warnings from the f@ctch3ckers, for speaking out and supporting our courageous Trumpy taking so much stick, playing his God given role in saving humanity. I was prepared for this and had already downloaded all my favourite pics to a hard drive.
It was great fun though, having the ignorant political 'know it alls', attacking me from all angles. Some, who I thought were my friends, turned very nasty. Remaining detached and wafting the sage stick, I would grin and rub my hands with glee, behind a smiley emoji knowing I was way ahead of these Trumpy Trolls and Haters, their opinions based only on how the MSM portray him, as he is taking them down for good!
Lock us in and we will find something to do!! I have experienced the best and most exciting 17 months of my life being a digital warrior, (I'm not at the level of some, it's incredible what information is being decoded and dripped down to us).
I must admit I am happily and healthily obsessed following the greatest sting operation ever to take place on this planet. Waking people up gently to the truth is not easy, the masses have been totally brainwashed by the media for the past 70 years. What will come out will shock the world.
We were given the heads up that July would be hot and the heat is definitely on.
I feel so blessed to be awake, aware, to have an open mind, to question everything and witness this historical event……. THE GREATEST MILITARY INTELLIGENCE OPERATION OF OUR TIME!

Today, Taylor Swift turns 27. That puts us five years past the unproblematic anthem that was "22," if you trust my calculus. She's been famous for so long that it's hard to remember a time when she wasn't. But to forget the teardrops on her guitar is to forget her roots!!! To understand New Edgy Taylor, we must first seek to understand Ernest Nashville Taylor — and I feel it's my civic duty to unpack this narrative. I'm going to do it through her clothes, because her style evolution perfectly dovetails with her transition from country teen queen to the leader of the proverbial cheer squad and it's very satisfying.
Shout out to Taylor for putting out an album every two years for the past decade because it made this extremely easy for me. Turn on some T Swift please.
2006: Earnest Nashville Taylor
AOL keywords: tight messy curls + empire waist dresses + cowboy boots
Soundtrack: Teardrops On My Guitar from Taylor Swift
Earnest Nashville Taylor didn't tame her hair because that would have been way too ~mainstream~ for a girl next door such as herself. She wore midi-length handkerchief hemlines almost exclusively (innocence & 2006) and her biggest problem was making sure some dumb teen boy remembered that her favorite song was by Tim McGraw. ENT occasionally verged on hippy because her stylist (possibly just her?) wasn't overly focused, which was a perfect reflection of her unmanaged image at the time. ENT was a hopeless romantic which comes through in her shoulder-y poses. Black eyeliner because high school.
2008: Country Royalty Taylor
AOL keywords: 1/4 curling iron + romantic dresses + as much beading as fucking possible
Soundtrack: Forever and Always from Fearless
Country Royalty Taylor had her romantic innocence dial turned up to 11 because she's smart and that shit was marketable. Bonus style points were awarded when people compared her to a young Faith Hill. Her dresses during this era call to mind a young girl obsessed with princesses and Joe Jonas and maybe Texas, but like, modern Texas. They were nipped in at the waist as a wink at sexuality. Her hair stayed curly — couldn't betray the OG fans — but on the DL it was actually dried straight and then re-curled with the thinnest of curling irons.
2010: Pure & Polished Taylor
AOL Keywords: pale palette + chiffon + coifed as fuck
Soundtrack: Enchanted from Speak Now
Pure & Polished Taylor is playing two games: on-duty royalty who just might drink you under the table and then deny it the next day. Her color palette was subdued and virginal, her fabrics were romantic because her heart was V. much broken (by John Mayor in particular). PPT marked Taylor's first foray into hair straightening. This was a little blasphemous to Earnest Nashville Taylor, but also a true industry-straddling moment. The world needed to be poised for…
2012: All-American Red Hot* Taylor
AOL Keywords: hot pants + Keds + red lipstick
Soundtrack: We Are Never Getting Back Together from Red
All-American Red Hot Taylor signified a successful leap to pop music, what with all the hot pants and fedoras. But safe pop. There was red lipstick and dark sunglasses and freshly brushed ponytails. It all felt very coifed '50s-style sweetheart with a wild streak to appeal to young girls, Harry Styles and creepy dads alike. Great for album sales. AARHT wore high-waisted shorts with Keds sneakers for two years straight and not a single person complained, including me. Her colors were red, black, white and yellow almost exclusively, conjuring patriotism and exuberance.
*like the candy, Happy Holidays!
2014: Sexy Squad Leader
AOL Keywords: crop top + high heels + spray tan + dirty blond lob
Soundtrack: Welcome to New York from 1989
AARHT primed the world for Sexy Squad Leader, paving the way for Taylor to go full-pop without public backlash. SSL wasn't afraid of a thigh high boot nor a spray tan, because her newfound feminism gave her the confidence to wear what she wanted. Like thousands, maybe millions, of crop tops. She had just as many very close female friends. SSL was given the title of Global Welcome Ambassador for NYC Tourism, which made a lot of New Yorkers groan but probably brought a lot of money to the city so whatever! Maybe the L will start running faster. Thanks Tay.
2016: New Edgy Taylor
AOL Keywords: high slits + platinum bob + chokers
Soundtrack: Don't Wanna Live Forever, feat. Zayn, 50 Shades Darker
New Edgy Taylor doesn't give a fuck what you think (but maybe she does, because don't we all)? NET is bold in her deviation from her now-signature red lip and is not afraid of bronzer. She wears chokers only because anything longer would be too romantic and she doesn't have time for that shit anymore. Her color palette is bold and severe because softness is so Pure & Polished Taylor and she's over it. Heels are still high but not for long, if you ask me. The trajectory is long but it's linear: I'm keeping my eyes peeled for Converse and T-shirts in 2017. Mark my words: Downtown Taylor is coming for us.
If you see her, wish her Happy Birthday for me!

Rhodiola Rosea plant
Adaptogenic herbs are "medicines" that move the body towards health by adjusting to the specific needs of each person. Ashwagandha helps to strengthen the adrenals, which helps hormones affect energy and mood. As an adaptogen, the herb used by a person with low adrenals will see improved energy and stamina, but a person under stress may see a lowering of their cortisol levels and a calming effect. Pub Med lists 688 studies on Ashwagands for a wide variety of illnesses such as cancer, kidney damage from diabetes, pain, gout, anxiety, depression and neurodegenerative disease. In specific cases it can make the person more resistant to physical and psychological stressors and improve energy and endurance. Ashwagandha is probably safe for short-term use. In large doses Ashwagandha may cause stomach upset, diarrhea and vomiting; side effects of long-term use are unknown. People with thyroid, auto-immune or liver issues should not use this herb.
Boswelia, also called frankincense, has 346 studies in the NIH database. It is made from gum resin from the Boswellia serrata tree. It is extremely effective to modulate inflammation in places that no drug except steroids can touch. But if no purified to remove beta boswellic acid to less than 5%, it can actually cause inflammation so you must be careful when you buy it.
Our favorite adaptogenic herb is Rhodiola Rosea. This has been used to lower the cortisol production, thereby rebalancing the cortisol and lowering the stress response. Evidence suggests that Rhodiola rosea may help those suffering from depression, to climb out of their psychological hole. Clinical studies on Rhodiola rosea have been performed at leading Soviet universities and medical academies. Rhodiola activates the enzyme lipase which is key to getting energy (ATP) released by cells which benefits athletes. In studying 112 athletes, researchers discovered that 89% of those supplementing with Rhodiola rosea showed a more rapid improvement in performance in sports such as track and field, swimming, speed skating and ski racing. Rhodiola rosea's normalizing effect on the adrenal glands may also have the same effect on cholesterol, blood sugar, potassium levels and blood pressure thereby decreasing many risk factors for heart disease. It has many other benefits including improving memory and hearing, helping with Parkinson's, weight management and immune support.

READ: Job 7
BACKGROUND: This chapter is a part of Job's reply to his friend Eliphaz about his tragic situation of losing everything. While chapter 6 was directed mostly toward Eliphaz, chapter 7 turns a corner a bit and is directed more toward God.
By Verse:
7 – Job realizes that life is fleeting, and in his suffering he's lost hope and purpose. Death seems like the only escape for him.
9 – This is not a reflection of good theology or a Biblical denial of resurrection. It's simply Job echoing the words of the prevailing sentiment – that the afterlife is a land of no return – in the ancient near eastern world.
11 – Job is angry with God, and he doesn't intend to keep quiet about it.
19 – The phrase – in many translations – "for even an instant" literally means "long enough for me to swallow my own saliva. Kinda funny.
20 – Job's complaint is that God is too critical. He's been a pretty good guy so he feels like God should be rewarding him instead of allowing him to suffer.
THINK: A friend quit two jobs to become a full-time caregiver when his adult son was seriously hurt in a car accident. That same year his wife of over 30 years contracted a terminal illness and died.
Since then, he says he has no answers when his son asks "why" this happened to them. But he told me of a reassuring dream he had along the way. He dreamed that he was in a place that was awash with sunlight. There were crowds of people around him, and a man was answering all of his "why" questions. Each answer made so much sense that he clearly understood why he was not to know the answers now. Then he was with his son in the dream. But when he tried to help him with his questions, he couldn't remember the answers. But even that seemed okay. And then he woke up.
My friend's experience reminds me of another friend of God who suffered with unanswered questions (Job 7:20-21). Only when God finally broke His silence and gave Job a vision of Himself in the wonder of creation did Job find something that was better than answers (42:1-6). Only then did Job find peace in knowing that our God has good and even wonderful reasons to trust Him. What's better than answers to our why questions? Trusting a good God who has His reasons!
By: Mart De Haan in Our Daily Bread, on March 14, 2011
ASK: Do I sometimes get hung up on not having all the answers? What would it look like for me to trust God completey?

Prosopography and Database Design for the Medieval Londoners Project
This paper outlines the chief aims of the Medieval Londoners Database (MLD) project, which is designed to bring together information in online, printed, and archival sources about those living in London between c. 1100 and c. 1520 for scholars, students, and the general public. My first aim was pedagogical in that I wanted to integrate a digital project into my undergraduate interdisciplinary course on Medieval London and find a way to involve grad students in a collaborative digital project. I was also drawn to database analysis, which I have used and taught for decades. But, since I had only worked with mainframe and desktop databases, and since online database work usually relies on complicated platforms that require paying experts to code, the second aim of the project became to find an inexpensive and relatively easy-to-use platform to create a searchable online database. This aim was made possible with the help of Katherina Fostano (MLIS), a Digital Resources Coordinator at Fordham, who has also inserted a Linked Open Data element into the database. The third aim of the project was to design a prosopographical database to create a fairly simple digital resource that would be helpful for a wide range of users. The rest of this talk focuses on the advantages of the prosopographical approach to understanding social groups of the premodern past, how the design of the database reflects its prosopographical functions, and how and why the MLD differs from the more well-known 'factoid-based' prosopographical databases that have been set up as part of several well-funded UK digital projects.

Now, to be fair, you may not have realized that Clinton made this unusually candid—for her—admission, because the statement was made in a phone interview with CNN, with a typically ignorant and incompetent interviewer ("THIS is CNN!") who either doesn't know the first thing about government ethics, or doesn't care if Clinton complied with them. Moreover, virtually no mainstream media sources pointed out the significance of what Clinton said, because…well, read the last part of the last sentence.
Talking about the various news reports and new email content that indicated a disturbingly close relationship between Clinton's Foundation interests—that is, raising money that assists the Clintons' personal fortunes in various ways—and her State Department duties, which were supposed to occur completely free of such conflicts of interest, Hillary said, straight out…
"I know there's a lot of smoke and there's no fire."
Bingo! Gotcha! DINGDINGDINGDINGDING!
And there we have it, Ladies and Gentlemen, a confession of official wrongdoing! For as an officer of the Executive Branch and a government employee, Clinton was subject to Executive Order 12731 of October 17, 1990, "PRINCIPLES OF ETHICAL CONDUCT FOR GOVERNMENT OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES," as are all such officers and employees today. That order, which has the force of law, as well as the order it amended, states very clearly, in black and white, that..
"(n) Employees shall endeavor to avoid any actions creating the appearance that they are violating the law or the ethical standards promulgated pursuant to this order."
Just to refresh Mrs. Clinton's memory…or maybe not, because we now know she didn't attend the mandatory State Department ethics training, required by law, in which this Order would have undoubtedly been explained and discussed…here are some of those ethical standards as articulated in the Order:
Part 1 — PRINCIPLES OF ETHICAL CONDUCT
Section 101. Principles of Ethical Conduct. To ensure that every citizen can have complete confidence in the integrity of the Federal Government, each Federal employee shall respect and adhere to the fundamental principles of ethical service as implemented in regulations promulgated under sections 201 and 301 of this order:
(a) Public service is a public trust, requiring employees to place loyalty to the Constitution, the laws, and ethical principles above private gain.
(b) Employees shall not hold financial interests that conflict with the conscientious performance of duty.
(c) Employees shall not engage in financial transactions using nonpublic Government information or allow the improper use of such
information to further any private interest.
(d) An employee shall not, except pursuant to such reasonable exceptions as are provided by regulation, solicit or accept any gift or other item of monetary value from any person or entity seeking official action from, doing business with, or conducting activities regulated by the employee's agency, or whose interests may be
substantially affected by the performance or nonperformance of the"(e) Employees shall put forth honest effort in the performance of employee's duties…
(f) Employees shall make no unauthorized commitments or promises of
any kind purporting to bind the Government.
(g) Employees shall not use public office for private gain.
(h) Employees shall act impartially and not give preferential
treatment to any private organization or individual.
(j) Employees shall not engage in outside employment or activities,
including seeking or negotiating for employment, that conflict with
official Government duties and responsibilities.
(k) Employees shall disclose waste, fraud, abuse, and corruption to
appropriate authorities.
There, now. That's enough to make the point. Is there evidence that Clinton and those reporting to her violated a, b, c, d, f, g, h, j or k, or even a, b, c, d, f, g, h, j and k? I would say so, and I teach this stuff, but never mind. Let's accept Hillary's Clintonesque defense that there's no proof that she engaged in quid pro quo trade-offs between State and the Foundation, and also her admission that "there's a lot of smoke." The appearance of impropriety IS smoke (actual impropriety is the fire), and the law forbids an officer from creating smoke. Why? Because it makes the public believe there's a fire, of course, and "to ensure that every citizen can have complete confidence in the integrity of the Federal Government, each Federal employee shall respect and adhere to the fundamental principles of ethical service as implemented in regulations promulgated under sections 201 and 301 of this order," which includes, as expressed in item (n) above, a statement that translates as "Don't make smoke."
Now, if CNN reporters are too ill-educated on the matter they are supposed to be reporting on, is it too much to ask that they at least have a government ethics authority within reach—it doesn't have to be me, any such expert will do, as long as he and she hasn't been Clinton-corrupted or hasn't sold his or her integrity to make sure Donald Trump isn't elected—to explain to the audience why Clinton just admitted that she repeatedly ignored the law, and why that is bad?
Is it too much to expect that some mainstream media sources would have the journalistic integrity to flag this statement as the admission of unethical conduct that it is?
It is.

San Diego State Aztecs All-Decade Basketball Team
Who made the cut for San Diego State
Contact/Follow @aztecbreakdown & @MWCwire
The best of the 2010s
The decade is coming to a close. In about two weeks we will be in a new decade of basketball. This last one has been pretty good to San Diego State fans. 10 bowl games in football, a couple sweet 16 appearances in basketball, and a bunch of other accomplishments too long to list.
With that, I wanted to look back at some of the players that made 2010-2019 so special. I put out a fan poll on twitter asking for people to list their starting five for their all-decade team.
A few people asked if the exercise was simply to honor past players, or to put the best team (on paper) together. I left it specifically vague and left it to each individual to decide for themselves how to vote. In all reality, I don't think the results would have been much different regardless. With all that, let's look at what the fans decided.
I'm going to ditch the tradition that most writers use and start with the player who received the most votes first. I do this in order to keep a little suspense as we get further down the list.
1. Kawhi Leonard, 35 votes:
Is this even a surprise? The guy that led SDSU to its first sweet 16. Leonard has since gone on to win two NBA Championships and two NBA Finals MVP's. The guy whose logo is on the wall in the Jam Center. Leonard is arguably the best basketball player in the world today, and while he wasn't during his time at SDSU, he was still really, really good.
He was good enough to make consensus 2nd team All-American in 2011. His 2010-11 Player Impact Plus-Minus (PIPM) of 7.36 ranks 9th in the decade among Mountain West Players (not counting this season.) Kawhi is the only player who was mentioned by every fan who gave an entire starting 5.
2. Xavier Thames, 32 votes:
Xavier Thames was a real treat to watch. The dude carried a team that was great defensively but struggled offensively to its second sweet 16 appearance in program history. He was the Mountain West Player of the Year in 2014, and finished 7th in KenPom player of the year standings. His PIPM in the 13-14 season was 9.18, which ranks first among Mountain West players this decade (not counting this season). He also has the best Points Over Expectation (POE) among SDSU players this decade, at 4.9 points above average.
3. Jamaal Franklin, 25 votes:
Jamaal Franklin played for SDSU for 3 seasons before turning pro. He was a freshman on the 34-3 team led by Kawhi Leonard. In his sophomore season the team became his. He was one of the country's best rebounders despite being only 6'5". He knew how to get into the lane and finish, and he excelled at drawing fouls. He was a two time honorable mention All-American, and Mountain West Player of the Year in the 11-12 season. His PIPM during his Junior season was 7.50, good for 8th in the Mountain West this decade (not counting this season.)
4. Skylar Spencer, 25 votes:
Skylar tied with Jamaal Franklin in votes, which was a little surprising to me at first. Considering how important he was to the Aztecs defense though, it makes sense. He's also the only player so far to play four seasons at San Diego State. He also bolstered his case by voting for himself, being one of two players who voted (the other being Dwayne Polee, who also voted for Skylar.) The Aztec's defensive dominance started before Spencer came along, but he embodied it arguably better than any other player.
He led the defensive efforts on the 2014 team that made the sweet 16, patrolling the paint and blocking shots.
His best PIPM was a 4.50. It was weighed down by his offense, as his defensive PIPM was 6.29, which ranks first in defensive PIPM in the conference this decade. His other seasons rank 3rd, 11th, and 15th in the decade. The only other player in the conference to have more than one top 15 defensive season was Khem Birch, who made it twice. Skylar Spencer set the standard for how defense is played in the Mountain West.
5. Malachi Flynn, 14 votes:
This one really was a surprise, but it shows the impact Malachi Flynn has had in his short time on the Mesa. Malachi Flynn has Aztec fans truly believing this team can be something special again. Many voters said they wanted to vote for Malachi, but couldn't because his time at SDSU has been so short. While I understand that point, I do like that he made the team.
I can't remember the last time I was so happy I screamed, and that's what Malachi Flynn did to me when he hit that shot against San Jose State. With everything considered, I think Malachi is placed perfectly here. His PIPM so far this season is 7.86, second in the Mountain West at the time I'm writing this, and it is better than all but 4 players who played full seasons this decade.
This team would be fun to watch, although spacing would likely be a problem. Regardless, these were/are all great players that we have had the pleasure of watching. Later in the offseason I will try to put together a team with the intent of having it win on the floor rather than just in our hearts.

FHS Robotics: Tourney Champs!
March 16, 2017
Farmingdale High School gives all students who attend a wide variety of clubs to join throughout the year. One club in particular that has recently been succeeding is the Robotics club. Robotics is a club that works toward winning regional competitions each year, with dedicated students, and a dedicated staff who put in hours upon hours worth of time into each and every project.
In the 2016- 2017 season, the Robotics Club accomplished several achievements. The Robotics Club is coached by Mrs. Grady, a staff member in the science department at Farmingdale High School. The club contains three teams; Robodalers, Dalerbots, and VEXcalibur, each containing around five to seven students. Each team has been successful in their own regard. The Robotics Club won two tournament championships, one Overall Skills Award, one Programming Skills Award, and one Build Award. To add to this, most recently, on March 4th, 2017, the Robotics team went to states, and are now tournament champions. In this competition, all three of the team's robots finished in the top ten, defeating thirty- nine other teams. This is incredible and truly shows that hard work pays off. According to Mrs. Grady, "Students on the Robotics team are expected to spend about 8 hours per week working with their team after school, in addition to 12-hour competition days on some weekends. Clearly, dedication is a must." Each student is dedicated and puts in all of this time, and the students seem to really enjoy it. Senior Abigail Grote reflected on her favorite part of the experience: "This is a hard question because there really is so much to love about this club, but I would have to say strategy at the competitions, because there is so much that happens during the competitions. One person on the team is in charge of deciding what moves the robot does on the field to score points, and who we work with at the competition. It's such an 'in the moment' kind of job that it really keeps you on your toes because of how fast you might have to change your current strategy." The competitions are challenging, the the rewards are worth it.
Keep an eye out for the Robotics team at Farmingdale High School as they approach the world competitions, which will take place in Kentucky. The students continue to work hard for the future as they look to bring home another trophy to add to the collection.

Looking for a Arrangement
Seeking Arrangement is an online dating service that caters to the luxury dating community. In 2006, Brandon Wade, a graduate of MIT, founded Seeking Arrangement. It has over 40 million registered users. The website operates on a profile-style system, where successful men and attractive female candidates can fill out information about themselves. Once the information is posted, other members can see the information and send messages to see if they are compatible.
A website for seeking arrangement allows members to search profiles and find matches using the same criteria. Video chat is also available on this website, which allows members to interact face-to-face. Members of the site can also customize their security settings. Some of these include photo validation and 2-step verification. Background screening is another security feature. You can also customize your preferences and filter out unwelcome members.
Seeking Arrangement is one of the most popular dating sites on the internet. It has more than 40 million members, spread over 130 countries. Its majority of its users are located in the United States and the UK. Its gender ratio is one woman to four men. It allows users to upload over 40,000 photos per day and send more than one million messages.
There are many membership options available on the website, from free to premium. The latter is usually cheaper for the long run. A free trial is also available to try out the site before making a decision. You can also search for matches on the site without sharing any personal information.
App Seeking Arrangement is a dating application that allows you to meet single men and women. Available for iPhone and iPad. The official app store and the download page are both available. It's currently available in the latest stable version, which is 1.2. The app has more than 40 million members.
The popularity of Seeking Arrangement has skyrocketed in the Chinese market. It is one of the most downloaded social networking applications in the country, with more downloads than the leading social networking sites, such as Weibo and WeChat. However, its popularity has caused controversy because of its apparent violation of China's censorship system. Although the creators of the app claim it is safe to use it, the Chinese government claims it violates their regulations.
SeekingArrangement offers a free version that lets users browse multiple profiles. If they choose, they can even send unlimited messages. As a premium member, they have access to advanced search filters.
Is it Safe?
When you use Seeking Arrangement, you can be assured that your privacy is safe. It has a strict safety policy, which makes it hard for scammers to use its services. Its policy of verification is one example. This ensures that the person you are communicating with is genuine. This process ensures that you are not at risk by communicating with someone you don't know. This is done through a background check. Members who have passed the background check are identified with a "Background Verified" indicator.
Seeking Arrangement accepts PayPal and standard credit card payments. You can also top up your account using your mobile balance. Payments for their services are discreetly billed. The code on your statement will read W8TECH or 2BUYSAFE. In addition, a college student must use their university email address to register.
Seeking Arrangement has strict privacy policies that make it safe to use. Users should also check their profiles for any suspicious activity. If you're unsure about whether a profile is safe or not, you can always contact the company to find out.
Pricing when seeking arrangement is a bit different than the Secret Benefits method because the Seeking Arrangement process requires a monthly commitment. Compared to Secret Benefits, Seeking Arrangement is much cheaper. You will receive the same service but for less money. This service is not only cheaper but also offers some significant benefits.
When it comes to seeking arrangement, you should be able to take advantage of different discounts that are offered on meeting websites. You can also make use of a coupon code to get even more discounts. These discounts are available on many websites, and they are often offered throughout the year. Before you take advantage of these discounts, make sure you read the terms and conditions.
These discount codes cannot be used on existing accounts. Also, you should not use these codes to purchase an existing subscription. These discount codes can change according to the market. You can always contact the company directly if you have any questions about the terms and conditions for a specific discount code.
You can try registering for a free account before you purchase a membership. These accounts also allow you to see the exclusive benefits of a membership. You can choose between short-term and long-term memberships.
Customer Service
You can call Seeking Arrangement's Customer Service number if you have any problems with your Seeking Arrangement account. You can reach this number at any time and get reliable answers to your most pressing questions. These experts can help you with any problem that may arise in your account or with the software.
One of the most loved dating websites is Seeking Arrangement. It connects young women with older men who are looking for companionship and sex. Although the site claims that it prohibits payment for sex, the site has been criticized for being a de facto prostitution hub. Uchitel claims that Seeking Arrangement neglected her account and ignored her messages.
Seeking Arrangement has also been accused of not updating their privacy policies and not adding a great deal of new features. Users who have deactivated their accounts still receive emails and messages from other users. They cannot also unfreeze or delete their profiles.
SeekingArrangement is a dating site that's completely free. You can search through multiple profiles and send up to 10 messages to male members without signing up. It also allows you to hide your date of joining and online status, and to show off your offline photos. The site also lets you know when your messages are read and allows you to highlight profiles that interest you. You can also block people who aren't interested in you.

Hey there beautiful people, I hope you're all doing really well!
Last month, I ran a lot of polls on my IG and FB stories and asked you guys a lot of questions about what you'd like to see more of from me and meal prep was by far the most voted for answer.
I feel there's no better time to share this post than right now – starting a new year after having indulged in lots of delicious food and drinks over the holidays.
Now, as many of you know by now, I am pregnant – I stopped sharing meal prep ideas and recipes, which I normally would on my IG and FB accounts during my first trimester because all I wanted was bread and pasta and I couldn't bring myself to cook or eat anything else. Now that I'm well into my second trimester, I'm back to my regular diet – with the exclusion of a few things here and there or the inclusion of a craving. So, I'm going to share all my tips and things that help me stay on track with my healthy eating, feel full and satisfied and save a lot of time!
Before I get into it, I have shared meal prepping ideas here in the past, there's a lot of helpful info so please have a look by clicking on the links below:
MEAL PREP – Snacks; Savory edition
MEAL PREP – Snacks Sweet Edition
Here are some easy ways to incorporate meal prep into your weekly routine, save time, reduce waste and eat better.
I do not like meal prepping full meals, because I HATE eating the same thing over and over again, so here I'm going to show you how to meal prep components and how to use them in different meals.
Getting started
- Choose and cook protein (optional)
- Prepare 1 to 2 savory snacks
- Prepare 1 sweet snack / dessert
- Cook 1 to 2 grains
- Decide on breakfast
- Grill plenty of veggies
- Wash and prep lettuce leaves / herbs
- Extras
Start by cooking protein source of choice, if using.
I like using chicken breast and by far the easiest and tastiest way I've found to prep this is to slice in small pieces and marinate while I prepare everything else. Then simply grill until cooked through.
My fave chicken marinade is:
lemon zest + garlic + salt & pepper + olive oil.
Allow to marinade for at least an hour or overnight. Then grill in a non stick pan until cooked well, allow to cool and store in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Use in pasta salads, shred and use in sandwiches or use in easy, quick dinner wraps.
I add a wholegrain wrap to a non stick pan on low heat, add a light layer of shredded mozzarella, then cooked chicken breast, and any veggies / beans I have on hand – this time it was just tomatoes, artichoke hearts and rocket leaves, then top everything with any dip I make for the week -this time it was tzatziki (more info below). Then close, press, transfer to a plate and enjoy.
Once you have all the components ready, these take just a couple of minutes to put together and make a really satisfying lunch or dinner.
As would a nice pasta or rice salad you could easily use the grilled chicken in.
Prepare savory snacks
I LOVE making dips – from a nice hummus to a tasty tzaziki, to a simple bean and artochoke dip to an aubergine babaganoush – dips make excellent snacks, can be used with veggie sticks, crackers, in sandwiches, in wraps (as seen above) and can even be used as dressings in salads and pasta salads.
The recipes for all the dips I mention here are in the blog post linked blow
MEAL PREP – Snacks; Savory edition
I like making two different dips – at the moment I love using tzatiki to nibble on between meals with veggie sticks and crackers and a nice hummus (or roasted veg hummus – yum) to use in sandwiches that we use either for breakfast or a quick lunch and wraps that make a yummy dinner. So good!
Sweet Snacks / dessert
When it comes to preparing something sweet, you could easily opt to purchase something instead of making it (new HNNFood launch coming next week YEY). But I find that preloading something really simple for when that sweet tooth hits is a really helpful way to avoid binging on stuff that isn't so great for us.
My current obsessions: dates stuffed with nut butter and my 3-ingredient Energy bites
Here's the recipe for these delicious energy bites: THREE ingredient energy bites
There are also many ideas in the Sweet Snack Meal Prep post linked above.
You'll find MANY more recipes for healthy sweet treats if you go to my HOME page and click on the RECIPES tab. You can also find ready made snacks / food available for order in the HNNFOOD tab – available again from next week.
Cook 1 to 2 grains
I love using brown rice and heartier grains in my dishes, whether I'm making a nice stir fry or fried rice for dinner or taking a rice salad to work with me. Cooking grains beforehand is SO HELPFUL – brown rice can take up to 50 minutes to cook. Preparing this in advance saves so much time on those busy week nights.
Once cooked, grains last up to 5 days in the fridge if kept properly – provided they are kept plain and nothing is added.
I also like cooking a lentil / pea pasta in advance for lunches and quick dinners.
Here I pre-cooked a pea pasta (made from peas not wheat – higher in protein, lower in carbs and wheat free – and used it in a:
Warm pasta salad with tons of grilled veg, boiled eggs, some cheese and lettuce leaves
Cold pasta salad with tuna, mozzarella, salad leaves and olive oil
As a side with my ricotta omelette.
Decide on breakfast
So I find that breakfast is the most versatile meal and doesn't require much prep. The options are limitless. You could easily opt for a good healthy cereal like a weetabix / oatabix / cheerios option and just have that with some milk and fruit if you don't want to add time to your prep work.
Or perhaps you're like me and nothing beats eggs on toast – YUM!
Another option is having some yoghurt with fresh fruit – you could go the extra mile here and prep a nice big fruit salad to have this option ready for breakfast or snacking. Here's my recipe for the BEST breakfast banana bread Banana Bread 2.0
You could also prepare a nice healthy banana bread that would make a great breakfast on the go.
Overnight oats are an EXCELLENT option and the flavour combos are endless so there's no getting bores of them! Here are some overnight oat ideas Overnight oats – Five ways 😋
Alternatively, I like preparing my porridge in a pot on the stove in the to have ready for the next morning – all I'll then do is add the milk / water and cook for a few mins.
Grill veggies and wash / store salad leaves
One of the most helpful, useful tips mum ever gave me when it comes to food, is to always, ALWAYS store salad leaves in boxes lined with paper towels!!!! This removes the moisture and makes them last SO MUCH LONGER.
Have you even purchased a pack of lettuce leaves and had it go bad within one to two days? I certainly have – lining your storage container with paper towels will help them last up to a week!
Grilled VEG – there's no real science to this, just add all the veggies you'd like to use to an over tray with some olive oil, salt and pepper and perhaps some dried herbs or spices, grill and use throughout the week.
I also love adding a whole head of garlic wrapped in foil to my over tray. Roasted garlic is absolutely lovely in dressings and dips!
I use my roasted veggies:
As a side when cooking protein such as chicken
To mix with warm or cold pasta and rice dishes
In dips (see roasted veg hummus)
In salads to give some contrast with raw veg
The extras I like to prep are:
Boiled eggs – they make a great snack, breakfast or addition to any salad or pasta salad
Fresh fruit salads – this will depend on the fruit I have on any given week; I don't prep bananas, apples and pears for example as they turn brown however I do like to clean and chop other fruits like strawberries, mango and so on. I use these on top of cereal bowls, over porridge or added to yogurts for a snack.
Cooking dried beans – If and when I do remember to soak my beans the night before, I like using this meal prep time to cook a batch of beans. Canned varieties are fine but I do like cooking my own and adding any flavour addition I fancy at the time.
Salad Dressings: here are some of my fave salad dressings Summer salads – how to dress them 🤤
Step 1: Marinate your protein – if using
Step 2: prep your veggies and start grilling
Step 3: boil eggs then allow to cool, peel and store in fridge
Step 4: cook grains and beans
Step 5: Make dips and refrigerate
Step 6: add salad leaves to paper towel lined boxes and refrigerate
Step 7: prep veggies for dipping – then store in paper towel lined boxes in the fridge
Step 8: start working on sweet treats.
Step 9: prep breakfast items
By the time you've made and stored dips and sweet treats, your grains and grilled veg will be just about done. Once the stove is clear:
Step 10: Cook protein
Store everything in airtight containers in the fridge once cool and enjoy throughout the week 🙂
