'Badge of Honor': Cincinnati Mayor Vows to Keep Sanctuary City Policies
Cincinnati Mayor John Cranley announced Monday that the city would remain a sanctuary city for undocumented immigrants.
"We have put the whole world on notice that we intend to live up to the Statue of Liberty ideals," said Cranley, adding that being a sanctuary city is "a badge of honor."
Cincinnati has already been a sanctuary city, and Monday's announcement reaffirms the city's position.

The announcement came less than a week after President Donald Trump's executive order on border security and immigration improvements.
Though Trump has threatened to withhold federal funding from jurisdictions that do not comply with immigration officials, Cranley said he doesn't believe it.

Public Affairs Counsel's reputation in the lobbying profession is for providing its clients with tireless and strategic representation. PAC provides its clients with year-round coverage of Oregon's legislative process and regulatory agencies. In providing lobbying services to clients, PAC follows a rigorous process which involves agenda setting, the development of issue-specific work plans and execution strategies.
Nobody works harder.
One of Public Affairs Counsel's trademarks is its uniquely focused approach to floor votes on legislation. We never assume that any simple vote will go one way or another. We always construct "hard" vote counts so that we know how many votes are needed to prevail on any given issue. We don't go into any issue without knowing, with great certainty, what the outcome is likely to be.
PAC provides the following services to all lobby clients:
Pre-Session Strategy Setting
- Prior to the beginning of a legislative session, PAC works with its clients to identify issues of importance that are likely to be considered by the legislature. Detailed strategies are developed as to how these issues will be addressed.
Issue Identification
- In addition to the pre-session strategy process and working with the client, PAC identifies all other issues of concern to the client that arise during the legislative session.
Procedure, Access and Diligence
- In setting and executing strategies, PAC lobbyists put to work their complete insider's knowledge of how the legislative process works. In order to achieve the best possible results, it is critical to influence the procedure. PAC also uses its access to legislators that it has developed over time to the continual advantage of its clients.
Legislative Review
- On a daily basis, PAC reviews all legislation that is printed and distributed by the legislature and pulls all bills that relate to the client's identified interests. These bills are then sent to the client for review and priority setting.
Meetings with Legislators
- PAC lobbyists meet with members of the legislative leadership, committee chairs, and other members to identify issues of importance to the client and to seek support on those matters. These contacts are constantly occurring throughout session. PAC also works to put its clients in front of key legislators to build relationships and rapport.
Daily Scheduling
- As the legislative schedule is developed each day, PAC lobbyists are assigned to cover hearings for clients. The firm possesses sufficient personnel resources to assure complete coverage each and every day.
Testimony to Legislative Committees
- PAC coordinates testimony on client issues before legislative committees. In some instances, the client will be asked to provide testimony. In other cases, PAC lobbyists do the speaking.
Liaison with Other Interest Groups/Lobbyists
- PAC maintains on-going relationships with lobbyists and organizations who share common interests and positions with clients. In this way, effective coalitions can be formed to advance or defeat particular issues.
Research Related to Legislative Issues
- PAC conducts research into legislative issues as needed to fully prepare and advance issues of client interest. The firm's extensive contacts in the private, political and government sectors assure that access is gained to the information that is needed for any particular issue.
Final Reporting of Legislative Actions
- At the conclusion of each legislative session, PAC prepares a final in-depth report on all legislation which has been prioritized by the client. Of particular importance, PAC catalogs its activity for each client along with a determination of next steps, if necessary.
Monitoring of Interim Legislative Committees
- PAC monitors the interim activities of all legislative committees and task forces that are dealing with issues of interest to clients. It also includes periodic reports to clients about the status of issues being discussed by these committees when the legislature is not in session.
Monitoring of Administrative Agencies
- PAC monitors and actively participates, on an as needed basis, with state agencies that are in a position to affect client interests. In some instances this involves issues of agency rulemaking. In others it concerns influencing policy decisions through direct contact with agency administrators and staff.
Identification of Probable Legislative Issues
- Throughout the interim, PAC strives to identify, ahead of others, issues of importance to a client that appear likely to be on the horizon. These issues come to the surface in the work of legislative interim committees, administrative agencies and through PAC's extensive contacts in the political and governmental arenas.
Polling on Issues & Legislative Races
- PAC owns a public opinion research component, The Nelson Report, and extensively polls issues and legislative races. Using this data, PAC is able to advise clients on political trends, political giving, issues, and election outcomes.
Political Insight
- Oftentimes, clients make decisions based on where they believe the political winds are blowing. Very few firms have the ability to deliver the incisive political insight needed to make important decisions. Public Affairs Counsel is one of those firms.

Nora and Tim help you find balance when dealing with a stressful debt situation. Learn how to manage stress and enjoy travel without breaking the bank.
"I want to get out of debt...I want to get out of debt," you repeat to yourself. This is a mantra that you wake up to each morning, go to bed with each night, and are pensive over every day. "I don't want any more bills...I don't want any more bills," is the accompanying harmony.
But according to the law of attraction, all the universe hears is "debt" and "bills." So what do you ultimately end up with? Continuous debt and a mounting pile of bills.
Setting a financial goal like getting out of debt is lackluster, at best. Yes, you'll be incredibly happy to release yourself of the burden of debt, but really - you are simply bringing yourself back to ground zero. This is hardly inspirational.
The Debt Cycle
A friend of mine is drowning in debt, and desperate to get out of it. His goal is just that: to be debt free. So he works like a dog, lives like a monk, and vigilantly dedicates every penny he has towards debt payments. He even admits that he is punishing himself (in a way) for being in debt by denying himself everything in the name of getting out of the hole.
So what happens? After a short spell of self-punishment, he can't stand it any more and he splurges. Having lost the will to live and figuring he'll never get out of debt anyway, he decides life is too short and treats himself to an expensive dinner. In so doing, he backtracks and ends up making little (if any) headway on his debt.
Negative versus Positive Goals
So it stands to reason that simply getting out of debt isn't a financial goal that is easily achievable. Why? Because it's boring. Getting to the point where you have no money (granted, you also owe nothing) is hardly exciting. If the prize at the end of the road isn't enticing enough, we never get there.
Instead, shoot for something better than being out of debt. Something positive. Something that makes you sing. Something with an accompanying image (ideally one you can quantify and keep in regular view, like on a vision board).
Instead of making your goal to get out of debt, make it bigger: for example, to have the down payment for a house. Yes it's considerably loftier than simply being out of debt, but now the finish line is way more productive and enticing. You see yourself in your new house and in a new stage of life; suddenly having a $0 balance in your account is only half the battle and not the end-game. You stand a much better chance of achieving financial goals by aiming for the stars and hitting the moon.
Admittedly, don't take this theory too far. Setting a goal that is ludicrously unachievable ("I want my own amusement park!") isn't realistic enough for you to keep your eye on the ball; you'll get distracted and say, "There's no way I could get there anyway, so why bother trying?" You know what you can achieve that is ultimately doable, yet larger than your initial goal.
Rewarding Yourself Along the Way
The other trick to setting financial goals you will achieve is to reward yourself along the way. Although some people can keep their head down and nose to the grindstone in the name of achieving a financial goal, most of us need to treat ourselves from time to time. If we set milestones and specific rewards upon achieving each milestone, we can tackle our financial goals in bite-sized pieces.
Although the reward is slightly counterproductive to the ultimate goal, having balance in our lives is much healthier and helps us stand a chance of staying in for the long haul. As long as the rewards are reasonable (and you'll know what that means in the context of your lifestyle, goals, and cash flow), it will actually be more productive than not.
It pays to dream big. No millionaire got to where they are by setting moderate goals. They had vision, they had guts, and they set big goals. With a big financial goal, a dash of balance, and rewards along the way, you'll be amazed at what you can achieve.

UB40 shot to fame in 1988 when their cover of Neil Diamond's tune "Red Red Wine" hit No. 1 on the American Billboard charts. Since that iconic single, UB40 went on to sell more than 70 million records globally. Although the original group disbanded in 2008, Ali Campbell, Terence "Astro" Wilson and Mickey Virtue are now back together and on the road again.
"We put out a country album in 2013 and I was wasn't happy with it. This was the last straw," Wilson said. "When we started UB40, the whole purpose was to uprise reggae music. This album really stepped away from what we were about."
The trio then released "Silhouette (The Legendary Voice Of UB40 – Reunited With Astro & Mickey)" in 2014. The cover of the 50's doowop song originally recorded by The Rays and later Herman's Hermits, went back to the playful reggae spirit of the band's roots. "When we choose a cover song to record, they're typically songs we love and have known forever," Wilson said. "'Silhouettes' was recorded in London and it's a song we believed the general public would fall in love with as much as we did."
Although UB40 actually formed in 1979 in Birmingham, England, Wilson said their group and sound really came together organically. "We're all self-taught," said Wilson, who also cites the Jackson family, Stevie Wonder and Bob Marley as musical influences. "Gregory Isaacs really inspired us. Everybody established their points and there's no great mystery to it."
While UB40 kicked off their tour last November, Wilson is excited to tour North America with the band for the first time in eight years. "I have family in Fort Lauderdale so it's always a good time when we get to play there," Wilson said of UB40's Oct. 24 gig at the Au-Rene Theater at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts.
The group also enjoys performing at various wineries and of course, sipping "Red Red Wine."
"We performed at winery tours in New Zealand," Wilson said. "And we've become quite versed with wines. We enjoy all sorts of wine, especially pinot noir."
Although Wilson admits the music industry has "changed beyond all recognition" since he and UB40 cut their first record, the heart of UB40's music and message remains the same. "Stay true to yourself and do what you do," Wilson said. "Reggae is more influential now than ever. The baseline of reggae unifies everyone around the globe. Whether you go to Hawaii, Germany or Sicily, reggae is internationally loved. Being with UB40 again has been fantastic. The chemistry is still there and it's like we've never been apart. There's no ego and no band politics. We're surrounded by great musicians and we're doing what we love to do."
UB40 performs 8 p.m. Oct. 24 at the Au-Rene Theater at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, 201 S.W. Fifth Avenue in Fort Lauderdale. Tickets cost $30-$60. Call 954-462-0222 or visit Browardcenter.org.

The October Surprise Has Arrived
The administration is reeling from the still-unfolding story about its missteps and deceptions over the Benghazi attacks, in which four American officials died. Although intelligence reports from the first day indicating a planned military attack and were backed up by both drone footage and corroborating statements from Libyan authorities, the administration insisted for weeks that it was a spontaneous protest inspired by a cheap internet trailer. Compounding the offense, President Obama has referred to these horrendous 9-11 attacks as "bumps in the road" and the deaths as "not optimal." Enter The New York Times, which has now reported that the U.S. and Iran have agreed to face-to-face talks on Iran's nuclear enrichment program. The Obama administration almost immediately issued adamant denials that any agreement had been reached, and The New York Times quickly edited its report to put the administration's efforts in a better light. Still, what better way to deflect...(Read Full Article)

Social media has changed the way the world works. Not only has it changed how we interact, purchase goods, consume entertainment, and advertise, but it has even changed the nature of human relationships. In the past, we did not have consistent access to conversations with one another discretely – distance and society simply made it impossible to talk to so many people without others knowing. Sadly, this has given cheaters a new avenue for being unfaithful as is evidenced by the number of divorces arising from social media interactions.
According to legal studies, several thousand divorces were filed citing social media as a reason. This means that a couple decided to untie the knot because one of the people met someone on a network or that they somehow cheated or orchestrated cheating via social media. This is truly unsettling not just because of how widespread it is but because of how simple it is. Clicking a photo and sending a message discretely is much easier than arranging a meeting. This makes it much more appealing.
There are numerous ways to use social media for cheating. Some have said that affairs have started with a "poke" on Facebook. Others say it is because of messages and flirting via chat. While still others have said that their spouses found old love interests and rekindled the flame. It is easy to see why so many divorces have happened which causes a of grief for all parties, unneeded stresses of having to hire a moving company like: ADT Demengament Montreal and much more.
Sadly, it seems as though there isn't much you can do except trust your spouse. If you do catch them, then be done with them or forgive them and work through it. If they want to cheat, then they will find a way. The only problem here is that social media has made cheating so much more accessible.
Those who might not have done it simply because they didn't want to get caught will now have a way to do so. You might be tempted to want access to your partner's social media, but this can backfire as it could be construed as suspicious or overbearing. Hiring an investigator to set the record straight is a viable option if you are suspicious.
Social media has not only changed the way that we live our lives – it has changed the way that people begin affairs. The ease of access has made cheating a viable option in ways never before known. If you believe that your partner is cheating on you, then contact us. We can help get to the bottom of things in the right way.

I thought the TS Hover MRLS is way too iconic to replace it with something. Would you prefer this, or the current one?
Tiberian Apocalypse is a Partial Conversion for Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars with the goal to create a true Tiberian Sun sequel. GDI, Nod and the Scrin are getting a complete overhaul.
I thought the TS Hover MRLS is way too iconic to replace it with something. Would you prefer this, or the current one?
I kinda wanna see a side-by-side. But I like this one.
i like this one..i mean the older was ok but i like this one..it looks like the hit-n-run vehicle i remember..brings back ts memories...the other and this one are both great but i have to vote for this one
considering that Tib apoc, is ment to be something like an tiberian sun sequel, i think that the older version looks better, looks a lot newer and updated from the original tiberian sun Hover MRLS, but you can add both, just the this one is faster but less armored while the old model is slower but more heavily armored. just an idea, dont want your model to go to waste :D
Looks great but I personally preferred the older model.
karma for you for the old render
I second that. That older model does look great, but it would be nice not jumping into conclusions before seeing how this new one will be skinned.
I like this one better
this one looks better
I like this one better to
Use the older one please.
I look the older one honestly.
Like* Seriously, why do I come back to these older posts days later and find blatantly obvious spelling errors?
This model looks lighter - I don't know whether too light
I prefer this one as well. Just looks more well-designed.
Yeah sorry MC, but the old one just looks more high-tech and more massive so i totally prefer that one. This one is cool, but it just looks to much like the TS one. The old one has a more modern feel to it :P .
This is better keep up!!
This one! ^^
I really like the rocket pods on this one better. I vote for this one.
I vote for the older model.
I vote for the older model
The old model is too bulky, IMHO, while this is a lot sleeker, which is something I've always loved about the TS MRLS. Maybe some will argue that being bulkier, the old one fits GDI's heavy steamroller style better, but don't forget that the MRLS is still designed to be a light, fast hit&run hover vehicle.
personally, i prefer the older one too
this one looks more strike force where the other one looks more assault like its a support unit for the tanks and walkers but can still take a decent amount of damage. maybe use both one as a scout/light strike force with multi role missles and the other as a large assault support unit (large assault i mean a good sized force) with heavyier missles that have to be switched from anti-ground to anti air or just only one missle that is only anti-ground
How is this MLRS supposed to fire? Is it like rocket barrage or precision missile strik? Personally I prefer precision missile strike with barrage ability(long cool down time :) make it more useful
i prefer the Current one if possible

A seed library is a place where people can 'borrow' seeds for use in their garden. And just as books are returned to a public library, a seed library is able to continue when people donate seeds back to the seed library at the end of the growing season. These can be seeds that you have harvested from plants and/or from commercial seed packets.
The Meaford Seed Library is housed in the history room of the Meaford Public Library. The initial collection of seeds in the library comes from a collection of over 700 vegetable and flower seed packets donated by Metro to Golden Town Outreach.
Lindy Iversen, Chair of Transition Meaford, is also very pleased with the development of the new seed library. "Working with others in community to build a local food network is one of the cornerstones of Transition Towns globally," she notes. "Transition Meaford has been working diligently to build a Meaford Community Garden network. The Meaford Seed Library offers us a chance to move further along that path. We hope new and experienced gardeners will use the seed library to grow what they love to eat."
The Meaford Seed Library is open to any donations of seeds. Just bring them in to the library – there is a basket behind the front desk for any dried seeds or seed packets!
Here is a link to more information about seed saving:

WESTCHESTER COUNTY, N.Y. -- Greenburgh Supervisor Paul Feiner suggested on Sunday that an "Almost Presidential Museum Library" be created to recognize the contributions of Chappaqua's Hillary Clinton and four other presidential candidates who won the popular vote but lost the Electoral College. Two of the other presidential losers also happen to be New York Democrats.
Feiner, a Democrat, said the Almost Presidential Museum Library "could be a boost to tourism in Westchester and help the local college that could host it."
Feiner further suggested that the library create a foundation and advocate for election reforms.
"I think any of the area colleges would be great -- Pace, Manhattanville, Sarah Lawrence -- even the (Westchester) community college. This will be privately funded, not taxpayer funded. I think we should take advantage of our county's role in this historic election," Feiner told Daily Voice.
"I suggest that this museum also highlight the stories of the other Presidential candidates who almost became President -- winning the popular vote but losing the Electoral college votes," Feiner added.
This museum, if established, will be most helpful to tourism, Feiner said. The museum will become a destination for tourists from around the country and world. The museum will also enhance the reputation of the Westchester college that pursues this initiative.
"Perhaps, Secretary Hillary Clinton and Vice President Al Gore and relatives of the other almost presidents will donate their Presidential campaign and public service papers to the college for future generations to study?" Feiner suggested. "Similar to what presidential libraries do. Students will benefit by being able to take courses about presidential campaigns at the library."
Gore, a Democrat, won the popular vote in 2000, but lost the Electoral College vote to George W. Bush.
Two other popular vote winners not elected president were New York Democrats Samuel J. Tilden of Yonkers in 1876 and Grover Cleveland in 1888 .
Cleveland, the incumbent 22nd president, lost the electoral vote to Republican Benjamin Harrison. Cleveland, the former mayor of Buffalo, came back in 1992 to defeat Harrison and become the first president to serve non-consecutive terms, also becoming the 24th president.
Former New York Gov. Tilden won the popular vote in the Election of 1876, but lost the Electoral College -- and presidency -- to Republican Rutherford B. Hayes.
A fifth presidential election also ended with an unpredictable outcome in 1824: John Quincy Adams was elected by the House of Representatives, defeating Andrew Jackson, who had won a plurality in both the Electoral College and the popular vote.
The local Almost Presidential library could host election forums, Feiner suggested. A library-appointed panel could also review the way our nation conducts elections. A foundation associated with the almost Presidential library can advocate for election reforms at every level of government.
Westchester is currently part of a living history. Hillary Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, have become an important part of our county, Feiner said.
"We have a former president, a former first lady, a former secretary of state, the first female nominee from a major political party who won the popular vote living here," Feiner said. "Let's make sure that Westchester takes advantage of this by making the Almost President of the United States Library one of the number one tourist attractions in New York State and a must visit historical site."

As vehicles whiz through Nebraska, passengers proclaiming there is nothing to see, the trail travelers had all the time in the world to view their surroundings. Some left diaries or journals and the accounts differed, probably according to the weather or the personality of the writer. Eventually people began staying in Nebraska, paving the way for the great state it is today.
From one end of the state to the other, and north and south, there are great repositories of records. Nebraska became a state in 1867 and while not like the early 1600s records of New England, records of the 1860s do exist.
The Homestead Act brought a huge influx of people to the state, particularly after the Civil War. Records and complete files of land secured by this act can now be found online at Fold3.
For more than a glimpse of how to do research in Nebraska, I have written the book Genealogical Research in Nebraska, revised edition. It contains 537 pages, thousands of URLs and genealogical plus historical information. The chapters are ...
Nebraska Settlement and Statehood
Trails, Roads and Forts
Ethnic Groups and Settlements
Native Americans
Courts and Records
Land Laws and Records
Nebraska's Large Repositories
Census Records
Religious Records
Steamboats and Railroads
Orphan Trains
Wars and Military Records
Farming, Ranching and Records
Federal Records of Nebraska
Nebraska Counties
Nebraska Publications and Histories
Family History Centers
Maps, Atlases, Directories and Gazetteers
The book sells for $32.95 plus $5.00 postage and handling. It is spiral bound and the most up to date compilation about doing research in Nebraska. It can be ordered online at Genealogy Works.

Donkey Konged
Jill brings new meaning to "kicked butt": As a child she was admiring a beautiful burro behind a barbed wire fence, wishing she could set it free. Reaching over to pet it her hand brushed against the fence, at which point she remembers a loud BONGING sound as her leg flew up behind her for an involuntary self kicking of her own hiney.
The jolt of high voltage from the electric fence shot through her, but not enough to kill her…or act as an antidepressant. It may have helped super-charge her already innate songwriting gifts though...
She wanted to be Astro Boy, not "The Vivian Maier of Singer-Songwriters"
Jill could be compared in some ways to Vivian Maier, the photographer whose narrowly rescued work is being exhibited worldwide and going viral, although during her lifetime her photographs were unknown and unpublished.
Jill's catalog of songs, which seriously ranks with the best of the best song collections out there, has also remained unknown, entirely unheard by the public [until right now].
A Beatles loving, self described ASTRONUT (she wanted to be the flame footed, flying Astro Boy when she grew up), Jill is still very much alive, and today she astounds as she writes, sings, plays, and can dictate all the parts of an arrangement a la Brian Wilson. The hurdles she has faced have been major, but FINALLY, Jill's narrowly rescued work escapes the confines of her head and makes it out into the world. Colorful, masterful, inspired, donkey konged songs for the masses.
Chipmunk Cheeks and Kneels of Sterve
Growing up, Jill was teased aplenty - she was referred to by her oldest sister as "chipmunk cheeks" for her chew-food-long-time tendency, when she would store a LOT of food in her puffed out cheeks while eating. She also still remembers a neighborhood boy's routine taunts of "Al-BEE!" from the window of his house whenever she would pass by (it was his way of teasing she had "albino" light skin and hair).
Some things such as music, lyrics, art and athletics come very naturally for Jill, whereas others such as being able to verbalize ideas without an unintended smattering of sideways spoonerisms making their way into the conversation are a real challenge. A classic example would be the time when her intent to speak of "nerves of steel" came out as "kneels of sterve".
Q: Does Jill still wish she could get a chance to pet a nice fuzzy burro?
And yes it is true that for 13 years now Jill has personally belonged to the creature sometimes referred to as "little Johnny cuddle cups", otherwise known as Harpo (seen below, and featured in the "World's Most Flappy Handed Dog" video). Harpo is Jill's constant companion, close confidante, and demander of snacking opportunities in chief.

Question: What is the practical application of TSQs? What is the difference between a TSQ and an ESDS or other VSAM file?
Answer: A TSQ is a TEMPORARY storage queue. It is used to hold information being passed from one page to the next (either the next execution of the same program or a different program). It can either be set to store the information in main storage or aux storage. In the latter case it actually writes the records temporarily to a KSDS VSAM file. Without using TSQs or TDQs a pseudo conversational CICS program would have no way of passing more than a few hundred bytes of data to itself (or another program) to display the next screen.
Reading and writing to VSAM files using regular read and write statements from within the program are simply accessing the file the same way that any program accesses files and the files can be used the same way. The type of file ESDS, KSDS etc simply determines how the data is stored and whether the file needs to be processed sequentially or can be processed in random order.
A TSQ either holds the data written to the queue in memory or writes it to a temporary file and either the same program or a different CICS program run straight afterwards can then read the queue of data back in so as to process it. A TDQ differs from a TSQ in that it does a destructive read. It deletes the records from the queue as it reads them so as to only allow each record to be read once.

Contributed by the Manufacturing Engineering Division of ASME for publication in the JOURNAL OF Micro- AND Nano-Manufacturing. Manuscript received July 3, 2013; final manuscript received November 6, 2013; published online December 4, 2013. Assoc. Editor: Ashutosh Sharma.
The method of roll molding is proposed as an alternative to compression molding for low-cost, high-throughput manufacturing of metal-based microchannel structures. Elemental aluminum- and copper- based microchannel arrays with depths of ∼600 μm and depth:width ratios ≥2:1 were successfully fabricated by roll molding at room temperature. Morphologies of roll molded Al and Cu microchannels were examined in detail. Response of roll molding was characterized by measuring depths of roll molded microchannels as a function of the normal loading force per width. This response of roll molding was further shown to scale with the flow stress of roll molded material. Roll molding offers the potential of fabricating microchannel structures with large footprints in a continuous manner.

Arlington, VA — Capterra, an online service that helps people find the right business software, published a new infographic today: The Top 20 Mental Health Software. This study is the newest addition in a series of Top 20 Software infographics, and ranks Mental Health software by market popularity. TherapyNotes, Qualifacts, and CounSol claimed the top 3 spots.
Mental and Behavioral Health software allows therapists and medical professionals to provide the best care possible by managing billing and invoicing, appointment scheduling, claims management, and providing assessment and treatment diagnostic tools to ensure each patient receives the attention he needs. Many solutions also offer document management, important for tracking progress notes and group therapy sessions.
"This area of medicine is not as black and white as so many others, so software especially geared for Mental Health is really important to give therapists proper support," said Capterra President and CEO, Michael Ortner. "These solutions provide administrative functions to save time, but also offer a lot of decision tools to make sure patients are receiving the right level of care."
These rankings were determined using Capterra¿s Popularity Index ¿ a weighted and ranked score that includes number of customers, number of users, and social presence. Marketing Automation, Event Management and Help Desk Management are some of the other industries recently featured in this Top 20 series.
"The mental health industry has been largely paper-based until just the last few years. As care providers realize more and more how important it is to adopt electronic records, Mental Health Software is going to really take off," said Ortner.
Capterra updates each infographic multiple times per year to keep up with changing data and trends in growing industries.

Laser surgery is not something most people consider when their pets need medical treatment, yet it is becoming a more common practice. Laser stands for "Light Activation by Stimulated Emission of Radiation." The laser energy automatically seals small blood vessels as it cuts. When defocused (moved away from tissue creating a larger spot size), the Laser becomes an effective coagulation device. Not only does the blood-free cutting benefit the patient, it provides a clear, dry surgical field for the surgeon. Without bleeders continually blocking the surgical field, the overall procedure time may be decreased. The lack of bleeding also lets the surgeon develop a really good feel for what normal tissue looks like, because he can see the tissue without blood being in the way. This enables the surgeon to have more control over what tissue to remove.
The CO2 Laser and How It Works
The CO2 laser is the most common laser for pet surgery. The CO2 laser produces a beam of light that is invisible but is used to vaporize or cut skin and soft tissues. The veterinarian can substitute the laser for a scalpel or other blade in many surgeries. The CO2 laser vaporizes the water in the area the vet is working on and allows him to remove the tissue that the laser has struck.
Benefits of Laser Surgery
The main benefit touted by veterinarians is that the laser has virtually no effect on the tissue surrounding the treatment area, since no tissue-damaging incisions are needed. The affected area is easily pinpointed, which eliminates guesswork. In addition, the laser never actually touches the tissue, which means that there is much less tissue trauma, and bleeding is greatly reduced. Of additional benefit to your pet is that surgery time is reduced greatly, and so is the pain to your animal.
Uses of Laser Surgery
Laser surgery has a wide range of possibilities for your pet. Spays and neuterings are some of the most common procedures, as well as declawing, in which the pet's pain is especially reduced. Ear surgeries (mostly for dogs with chronic ear infections), eye surgeries, oral surgery and lump or tumor removals are commonly treated with laser surgery. In addition, lick granulomas, a skin disorder in dogs in which dogs tend to lick the lower portion of their legs until a lesion is formed, can be treated with laser surgery.

Off the Plane Letter by Board Member Alex Chapman
Posted by Natacha Soto on Wednesday 2nd November 2016
Dear Supporter,
I have recently arrived from a field visit to Ethiopia which I wanted to share with you. As you may have heard on the news there has been civil unrest in the Oromia and Amhara regions of the country and the Ethiopian government has announced a 6-month State of Emergency. Luckily, none of our partners have been directly affected but they are monitoring developments carefully and are concerned for the safety of their staff and beneficiaries. In one of Hope Enterprises schools in Roggie, the parents have come together and are taking it in turns to guard the school to ensure their children's education is not disrupted. My thoughts are with them and all the people of Ethiopia at this time and I hope that calm and stability will be restored.
Part of the reason of my trip was to see how our partners are faring since the drought and how they have utilised the funding provided by Ethiopiaid's generous supporters like yourselves. I was heartened to hear that the recent rains that finished in mid-September have been the best in 10 years. However, the crisis is by no means over. Now, there is an outbreak of Acute Watery Diarrhoea which is waterborne and spreading rapidly in some areas of the country. The protracted drought means that people are very susceptible as their immune systems have been weakened by malnutrition. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers and children are particularly vulnerable. There have been over a hundred deaths already and the disease has spread to 4 districts. In Ethiopiaid we are doing everything possible to continue supporting them through this ongoing crisis.
I was lucky that my visit to Ethiopia coincided with our partner Facing Africa's biannual surgical mission. Volunteer surgeons, anaesthetists and nurses from the UK and Ireland had come out to Addis Ababa to operate on victims of Noma and other severe facial disfigurements. You may have read about Noma in our newsletters. The word 'Noma' comes from the Greek meaning 'devour'. It is a gangrenous infection that literally devours the face. It starts in one corner or the mouth and burrows down eating through bone, muscle and skin. 80% of victims die in the first two weeks. Those that survive, the so called 'lucky' ones, have to live with the most terrible facial disfigurement often hiding away from the public gaze becoming isolated from society. It is a disease of poverty attacking children who are malnourished and have weak immune systems often coming in the wake of other illnesses like measles or malaria. In the developed world it can be easily treated with antibiotics but in remote parts of Ethiopia there is no such medical assistance and within a day of contracting Noma a child will be severely dehydrated and will then go on to develop pneumonia and most likely die. As one of the doctors said to me, "Noma is a dark disease lurking in dark places and comes out during times of famine, pestilence and extreme poverty."
I accompanied the Facing Africa doctors on their morning ward round. I met Noor, a 25 year old man from near Khartoum in Sudan. He had a significant Noma scar on the right-hand side of his face. Noor had a remarkable story as unlike many Noma victims he had managed to get an education in Sudan and had studied Computer Science. His English was fairly good and he explained to me that he had been told his condition was gangrenous so he had used a computer to google the word and had discovered he had Noma. He had then done further research and had found out that there are only two places in Africa you can get surgical treatment for Noma, Nigeria and Ethiopia. As Nigeria was too far he wrote to the Facing Africa team to plead his case and they agreed to see him in Ethiopia. He had travelled three days by bus to meet them.
The Facing Africa surgeon explained to me that Noor had received previous surgery in Sudan where they had taken some skin from his tongue to repair his lip and the hole in his face. But it was a botched operation that had left him with terrible scar tissue which would be impossible to repair. Apparently this is a common problem. People with Noma are so desperate that they accept help from poorly qualified doctors or resort to traditional healers. One particular healer is known to use Sulphuric acid to try and 'cure' the Noma with horrific consequences.
Later in the morning I was invited in to the operating theatre to witness Noor's surgery. The two surgeons worked together to cut out the Noma damage and scar tissue around the mouth and replace it with a flap taken from Noor's arm. The operation took 6 hours and witnessing it was not for the fainthearted! But I was fascinated to see the surgeons deftly navigating arteries, tendons and muscles to rebuild Noor's face with such skill and craftsmanship. That evening I returned to the ward to see Noor after he had come round from the anaesthetic. Although he was still groggy and swollen he seemed very pleased with the outcome. He will now spend a month receiving post operative care before taking the long bus journey home. As I left Noor, I couldn't help wondering what the future will hold for him. Returning home with a new face he will be a fully functioning and successful member of society and judging by his tenacity and determination to find himself help in the first place I am sure he will go far.
I feel incredibly privileged to be Chair of Ethiopiaid UK and a Board member of Ethiopiaid Ireland, and to witness firsthand the inspiring work that our partners carry out in Ethiopia often in the most challenging of circumstances. It is an honour to meet inspiring people like Noor and the Facing Africa surgeons. But none of this work would be possible without the kindness and generosity of our donors like you. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart and hope that you will continue to support Ethiopiaid for many years to come. It is through partnership and long term support that we can truly make a difference.
Best wishes,
Alexandra Chapman

If you watch and enjoy pornography, and feel that it is not causing any harmful consequences to your life, then you can probably stop reading here. I have no desire to help you stop watching pornography if it is not a problem for you. If, however, you feel as if your relationship with viewing and/or masturbating to pornography has caused negative consequences to your life and you are unable to stop watching it, then read on…
Pornography addiction has been described as a behavioral addiction characterized by compulsive, repeated use of pornographic material until it causes serious negative consequences to one's physical, mental, social, and/or financial well-being (1). One of the key components to any addiction is: An inability to stop the behavior despite harmful consequences. Does this sound like you?
There are several self-tests that can help you define whether or not pornography has become addictive in your life, but let's start with the following questions:
· Have you had ongoing but unsuccessful attempts to stop, reduce, or control your porn use?
· Have you spent inordinate amounts of time watching pornography or recovering from it (to the extent that it has taken time away from occupational, social, domestic, or academic obligations?)
· Have there been harmful consequences to your relationship or sex life due to your porn use?
· Do you need to watch more visceral or violent types of pornography than you used to, in order to become aroused by porn?
· Do you become irritable, restless, or annoyed if you are unable to watch porn?
If you answered "yes" to more than 1 of these questions, then it is probable that pornography has created a negative presence in your life, and I can work with you to change that. Whether or not pornography has become a "problematic behavior" or an "addiction" is something that we can discuss in our first session together, while completing a complete therapeutic assessment. Please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com, or call me at 310.927.1412 to set up your first appointment.
Feelings of shame are common in any compulsive sexual behavior, and together we can work to take the shame away and restore your hope.
Sexual addiction is a complex addiction but there is hope! As a trained Certified Sex Addiction Therapist <http://www.iitap.com/> (CSAT®), I have completed training developed by Dr. Patrick Carnes <http://www.sexhelp.com/> which required attendance at multiple training modules and supervision with a CSAT Supervisor. It also requires ongoing education so that ASATs/CSATs such as myself are experts in providing sexual addiction therapy. It is a rigorous process designed to help me best help you.
Learn more about treatment for sex addiction <http://www.sexhelp.com/> including an initial (free) sexual addiction screening assessment <http://www.recoveryzone.com/>, please visit www.sexhelp.com . IF you are a partner, take the Partner Sexuality Survey <http://www.recoveryzone.com/>

Colette Fu: We are Tiger Dragon People
January 23, 2015 - April 4, 2015
Organized by Alexander Campos, Executive Director & Curator, Center for Book Arts
For the past seven years, Colette Fu has been making one-of-a-kind artist books that combine photography with paper engineering. Pop-up and flap books originally illustrated sociological ideas and scientific principles; Fu constructs her own books on how our selves relate to society today. Limitations, experience and experimentation with the media lend a strong problem-solving component to Fu's process.
In 2008, Fu was awarded a Fulbright Fellowship to create a photographic pop-up book of the 25 ethnic minorities residing in Yunnan Province, China, from where the artist's family descends. 25 of the 55 minority tribes of China reside in the Yunnan and comprise less than 9% of the nation's population, with the Han representing the majority. Fu uses her artistic skills to spread knowledge and provide a brief portrait of their existence.

The algorithms
have been described in "Quantitative Comparison of Power Management
Algorithms" by Yung-Hsiang Lu et
al. The paper appeared in Proceedings of the conference on Design,
automation and test in Europe. The user is encouraged to read the
paper before using the tool.
The tool has
three fold uses. First it can be used to learn a set of scheduling
algorithms used by hard disks to schedule track accesses. The first part
of tool demonstrate the order in which tracks would be accessed for
three different Disk Scheduling algorithms: FCFS (First Come, First
Served), S.S.T.F (Shortest Seek Time First), and
C-Look. A brief
description of these algorithms is presented here.
For these set of experiments, no power management algorithms are used.
The second part of tool demonstrates the working of DPM algorithms. The
algorithms presented are Fixed Timeout, ATO1, ATO2, ATO3 and Exponential
Average. Different scheduling algorithms can be used while performing
simulations for each of these. For example the user can see how power
management algorithm ATO1 performs if disk scheduling algorithm used is
S.S.T.F or if another disk scheduling algorithm, SCAN is used. Finally,
a performance comparison of any two DPM algorithms can be

steps to use this software

"Simulation" tab above
A hard disk drive is a collection of
plates called platters. The surface of each platter is divided into
circular tracks. Further more, each track is divided into
smaller pieces called sectors. Disk I/O is done sector by sector. A
group of tracks that are positioned on top of each other form a
cylinder. There is a head connected to an arm for each surface,
which handles all I/O operations.
For each I/O request, first head
is selected. It is then moved over the destination track. The disk
is then rotated to position the desired sector under the head= and
finally, the read/write operation is performed.
There are two objectives for any disk
scheduling algorithm:1. Maximize the throughput - the average
number of requests satisfied per time unit.2. Minimize the
response time - the average time that a request must wait before it
is satisfied.
Some of the disk scheduling algorithms
are explained below.

Policy: Briefing - Taking Stock
By: Kantar Public Published: April 2011
There is a drastic shortage of housing in England. This impacts negatively on households' aspirations and needs; one million children live in overcrowded conditions, households delay starting families because they can't afford a home, more and more people live in the sector with the highest rates of non-decency (the private rented sector) and over a third of us believe that our children will not be able to afford a decent home.
- Policy: Briefing - Taking Stock (PDF 1.2 MB)
It is a common assumption that, with the supply of new housing failing to keep pace with demand or fill the backlog of need, homes which are currently unused canfill the gap. Shelter has investigated the possibilities of using the existing housing stock more effectively. The three key issues of focus are empty homes, second homes and under-occupied homes.

Ray Dillman a treasure hunter/researcher who first initiated this family's quest
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) October 23, 2007
Secrets of the Stone Tablets -- In Search of Montezuma's Treasure, Documentary, Released Today.
After more than forty years of research and archaeological fieldwork a team of explorers and treasure hunters from California are ready to present to the world evidence that the Peralta Stone Tablets discovered in 1949 are authentic, and lead to several archaeological sites in the American Southwest, and may soon reveal the location of "Montezuma's Treasure", the lost Aztec treasure that early Spanish Explorer Hernando Cortes, was unable to fully capture and take back to Spain as he and his Conquistadors were ejected out of Mexico on the Historical Night of Tears.
The original Peralta Stone Tablets currently rest in the Arizona Mineral and Mining Foundation Museum in Phoenix Arizona, The Dillman family of California utilizing the efforts and hard work of three generations of their family have discovered facts and physical evidence that will reveal to the world the truth about these mysterious Stone Tablets and who created them and why. Xzault Media Group is releasing this DVD with information and evidence about the Dillman's incredible and closely held family secret about an extraordinary 1982 archaeological discovery at a remote site in the Utah desert where an unto now, unknown, ancient site with amazing finds of Artifacts, Human Remains, a Sacrificial Altar similar to those found in Mexico, with proof of Human Sacrifices and Cannibalism, and amazingly another Stone Tablet.
Dan Dillman the Grandson of "Ray Dillman a treasure hunter/researcher who first initiated this family's quest," has produced this 80-minute documentary, with historically accurate information, newly discovered Artifacts and profound new theories about the Aztec's, early Spanish Explorers and his family's forty-year search for Truth and Treasure in the Americas using only the Peralta Stone Tablets and his Grandfather's notes as their guide.
Dan Dillman states; We are bringing our amazing quest for truth to the attention of the world in the hopes of enlightening and inspiring children and families to the fact that America is full of undiscovered treasures, truth and mysteries waiting to be unearthed. Myself and other prominent researchers believe that the four corners area of Utah, Arizona, Colorado and New Mexico are the Americas very own Valley of the Kings. We hope to raise funds from the sales of the DVD to continue our expeditions and research into the American Southwest to find the truth and hidden treasures and secrets of the Aztecs, and pinpoint the location of "Aztlan and Montezuma's Treasure".
Currently the family along with a scientific team assembled by Dan Dillman have embarked on several new expeditions into the Southwest that they say will ultimately reveal more clues and evidence on the possible whereabouts of the lost treasure of Montezuma and the whereabouts of the mythical Aztec homeland "Aztlan", and finally put to rest the speculation about the authenticity of the enigmatic Peralta Stone Tablets. Secrets of The Stone Tablets In Search Of Montezuma's Treasure, is Available for purchase at Amazon.com and other participating retailers.
More information and facts: Scientific study of the Artifacts from the 1982 Dillman discovery site was performed by a respected team of researchers from BYU and Big Horn Archeology, and they have validated certain symbols found at the site as Spanish Origin, and have carbon dated a number of other items to be Pre-historic Native American.

2. LACO Millennial Latino Vote Prop 64 Campaign
LACO Millenial Laitno Vote Prop 64 Campaign is live calling 100,000 18-29 Latino registered voters in CA CD's 32, 40, 35, 44 and CD 25 in Los Angeles County with a message that emphasizes support for the Adult Marijuana Use Act Prop 64. Currentlty four phone banks staffed by paid millennial Latino phoners are operating in Boyle Heights, Lincoln Heights, South LA, and Lancaster. The goal of the campaign is to identify 25,000 millennial Laitno yes votes for Prop. 64 and mobilize them to the polls on Nov. 8 or through absentee voting.

3. OC Latino Vote Campaign
Click here to donate to the OC Latino Vote Campaign
In only a month the Latino Voter's League (LVL) knocked on 13,000+ doors and identified 7,000+ Latino voters in Orange County. LVL targeted Latino communities in the cities of Garden Grove, Irvine, San Juan Capistrano and Tustin, which are not normally targeted These cities lack Latino voter participation, Latino leadership in their local government and strong community organizations.
Of all four cities, Tustin – that has the highest Latino population – is the only city that currently has a councilmember of Latino origin. Garden Grove's City Council is 0/5 Latinos, Irvine's City Council is 0/5 Latinos, and San Juan Capistrano's City Council is also 0/5 Latinos. Clearly, their most of these City's leadership does not represent their population's demographics for many reason, like low Latino voter participation. Garden Grove and San Juan Capistrano will be having their first ever district election, which will allow Latinos and other minorities to be competitive during City Council elections. According to the Voting Rights Act of 1965, District Elections are a fair election system that allows minorities' voices to be heard.
Walking in these cities was not an easy task. At time, our canvassers had to walk a few blocks to arrive at the next Latino household. It was common that in Tustin and Irvine LVL canvassers will run into more "Make America Great Again" signs than a Latino homeowner. That only fueled our energy to ensure to register more people to vote this November election.
Our results show that of 13,000+ doors knocked, 94% of 7,000+ Latinos that we talked stated they would be voting this November 8th. We also registered 737 new voters in Orange County, a great majority that will be voting by mail this Nov 8.
