text: Okinawa is the birthplace of karate. The actual meaning of karate in Japanese is "empty hand." However, the Okinawans first elaborated "te" (hand), their own unique art of self-defense devoid of weapons, which later developed into karate. Created in the former Ryukyu Kingdom and spread from Okinawa to Japan and then to the world, karate today is said to have more than 50 million fans in more than 140 countries. Karate is characterized by the use of fists, toes, elbows and knife-like hands.

This is an original 5x7 watercolor painting done by myself, Bonnie White. This painting comes matted in a single 8x10 archival off-white mat, ready for a ready-made clear glass frame.
I continue to paint these 5x7 paintings as way to help people on their way to building their own art collection. I find that what starts as a print can very well begin a quest for collecting original art. Surrounding yourself with original art brings a joy to life that is pretty hard to find in other ways.
I am an award-winning painter living in the Columbia River Gorge. This is a painting of the gorge. You can see larger paintings at bonniewhite.net.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Bonnie White

Unlike other forms of forms of arthritis, your risk of developing osteoarthritis is largely related to lifestyle factors like diet, weight, exercise, and previous injury. In fact, dietary and lifestyle changes can have a huge affect on the prevention and management of osteoarthritis. But where do you begin? There exists only preliminary research on the effects of nutrition on osteoarthritis, but these results are promising. At the same time, there are many claims about dietary supplements, foods, and other substances that have no research to back them up. This article will help you separate the facts from the fiction when it comes to fighting osteoarthritis with dietary changes. Keep in mind that nutrition is just one of the many factors affecting osteoarthritis, and you should always create a prevention or treatment plan along with your doctor's recommendations.
Fighting Osteoarthritis with the Right Food Choices
According to preliminary nutrition research, the following nutrients and substances in foods may benefit osteoarthritis.
Vitamin C may help reduce the progression of osteoarthritis. Vitamin C is involved in the formation of both collagen and proteoglycans (two major components of cartilage, which cushions the joints). Vitamin C is also a powerful antioxidant that helps to counteract the effects of free radicals in the body, which can damage cartilage.
Vitamin D is necessary for proper calcium absorption and bone structure, which are crucial in proper joint functioning. A low intake of vitamin D appears to increase cartilage loss.
Omega-3 fatty acids suppress inflammation and are used to form the outer membranes of joint cells. Omega-6 fatty acids, on the other hand, promote inflammation which can contribute to the pain and stiffness of osteoarthritis. Most people consume approximately 10 times more of the inflammation-promoting omega-6's than they do the anti-inflammatory omega-3's.
There are many food and nutrition recommendations for arthritis that have no scientific proof that they actually work. Be sure to steer clear of these common claims.
The Nightshades Diet. One of the most common claims is that avoiding "nightshade" vegetables such as potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants, and most peppers, will relieve the symptoms of osteoarthritis. Although there is probably nothing harmful about following this advice, there are no studies to support its effectiveness.
The Alkaline Diet. The alkaline diet presumes that high levels of acid in your system bring on osteoarthritis symptoms. Proponents of this claim suggest eliminating sugar, coffee, red meat, most grains, nuts, citrus fruits and citrus foods from your diet for an entire month. Because followers of this diet are limited to such restrictive food guidelines, many people do lose weight and report feeling better (as a result of that weight loss). However, there are no studies to prove that this diet is effective.
The Dong Diet. This very restrictive diet relies heavily on the consumption of all vegetables except tomatoes, and eliminates many of the same foods as the alkaline diet (see above). No research or evidence exists to prove that this diet is effective in managing osteoarthritis.
Gin-Soaked Raisin Diet. Although grapes and raisins do contain some anti-inflammatory compounds, the actual amount is minimal. The gin that is used may help dull pain, but that is not a permanent fix. There is no research to support this diet claim.

Thank you! I really appreciate all of the useful information! Report
Great Report
Thank you. I appreciate the listing of foods that may help with osteoarthritis, as well as the quantity. I have also added glucosamine to my supplements for joint pain/ cartilage help. Report
Thank You for a great article. Report
I don't have arthritis but my husband does. I wanted to see how I could help him. He drinks a lot of milk and eats a lot of salmon. I guess he is on the right track. Report
Much better than another article re best foods for joint health--that gave few examples. Listing the suggested amounts and the amount contained in specific foods here is EXCELLENT! Thank you! Report
I had no idea that all of these foods would be helpful. While I do eat most of them, but not all the time, I will certainly include them in my regime. Thank you so very much. Report
I think a lot of the things you suggest are very true. Since I became ill, not anything arthritic, I became more aware of what nutrition supports better health and it really has made a difference and here I am without any arthritis symptoms. Lots of other nonsense but no bone aggravation.. Report
Thanks for sharing Report
Becky, it would be great if you could link to studies that support your assertions. Whenever I see works like "may help" or "seem to" reduce symptoms, I wonder about the source. Thanks so much. Report
GOOD article. Report

Multi-Room AV
Tuner Accessories (Antennas, Extenders/Combiners, Splitters)
While HD and satellite radio is great sounding and exciting new technology, suffice it to say it is only exciting if you can get it to play in your home. And there in lies the trick. Specifically for the Tune Suite, Duo and TSS-1, ADA has designed a series of devices that make it possible to locate the antennas (required for reception) in an area or location more ideal than the electronically noisy and often buried location of the main equipment rack. Best of all, ADA's efforts permit you to run both AM antenna, FM antenna, and satellite radio antennas on a single RG-6 coaxial cable from the antenna location to the equipment rack. These accessories include.
AML-1 Loop AntennaThe AML-1 is specifically coiled for reception to an ADA AM/FM/WX or HD AM/FM/WX tuner module. It should connect on exactly 6 feet of RG-6 to the AM antenna input on the ACB-1 Active Antenna Combiner.
- Specifically coiled AM loop antenna for use with ACB-1 in conjunction with ACB-2 and/or AAS-4 (requires 6' of RG-6 coax)
Satellite Antennas
- XMA-1 XM Satellite Radio Antenna
- Sirius Satellite Radio Antenna
ACB-1 and ACB-2 Antenna Combiners
- ACB-1 combines AM, FM and Satellite Radio antennas into one coax
- ACB-2 splits signal from ACB-1 to one AM/FM and one satellite radio tuner module
- ACB-1 and ACB-2 must be used together
AAS-4 and SATLS-4-50 Antenna Splitters
- AAS-4 splits the 75-ohm AM/FM output from the ACB-2 into four 75-ohm AM/FM outputs
- SATLS-4-50 splits the 50-ohm Satellite Radio output from the ACB-2 into four 50-ohm Satellite Radio outputs
SATLA-1 and SATC-75 or SATLS-4
- SATLA-1 converts a single 50-ohm Satellite Radio antenna to 75-ohm RG-6 coax
- SATC-75 converts 75-ohm RG-6 coax from SATLA-1 to a single 50-ohm Sirius or XM Satellite Radio antenna connection.
- SATLS-4 converts 75-ohm RG-6 coax from SATLA-1 to four 50-ohm Sirius or XM Satellite Radio antenna connections. *Must be used with 2 or more Satellite Radio modules.
- SATLS-4 or SATC-75 must be used with SATLA-1

Sept. 16, 2010
NORTH DARTMOUTH, MA-The University of Massachusetts Dartmouth's volleyball team earned their ninth consecutive sweep at the start of the season, blanking visiting Pine Manor, 25-11, 25-15 and 25-23, in a non-conference match at the Tripp Athletic Center Thursday evening.
Junior outside hitter Allie Mastrocola (Swansea, MA/Case HS) led UMass Dartmouth with nine kills as the Corsairs got all of their players some experience. "(Freshman) Cat O'Loughlin (Randolph, MA/Cardinal Spellman) saw her first action, (freshman) Asia Strothers (Wareham, MA/Wareham HS) also got out there, and (freshman) Bianca Cabral (Dartmouth, MA/Dartmouth HS) had an opportunity to run the show in the third game," said UMass Dartmouth Head Coach Steve DeRossi. "Our players who came off the bench played extremely well, they were down, 22-16, and came back to win, 25-23."
Sophomore setter Jess Goncalves (New Bedford, MA/New Bedford HS) finished with 18 assists, while Strothers added three blocks. Junior middle blocker Kaitlin Hogan (Tewksbury, MA/Shawsheen Tech) had four kills and five service aces. "We had a solid serving match, and it was definitely a solid win. It will help us get prepared for our first league match this weekend."
The Corsairs improved to 0-0 with the victory, while the Gators fell to 2-1 with the defeat. UMass Dartmouth will return to action when play Southern Maine and Worcester State at Southern Maine Thursday. Pine Manor will host St. Joseph's (Maine) and Lasell Saturday.

With such rapid technological change and economic growth in Beijing, an increasing number of families are opting to move here. From cosmopolitan restaurants and shopping malls to ancient temples, the city's exciting and versatile options will guarantee that your family will never be bored. However, it may come as no surprise that there are some cautionary measures to take while living in such a unique city. Take heart; following a few simple rules will ultimately enhance rather than take away from your time in Beijing.
Beijing has notoriously high pollution levels, due to the dense traffic and large population. The World Health Organization ranks China as having the highest risk of air pollution in the world. However, there are preventative actions that can be taken to protect you and your family.
When moving to Beijing, you should get into the habit of checking the Air Quality Index (AQI). If the levels are over 300, then stay indoors as much as possible. Children are particularly at risk, since their lungs are still developing. For a reliable reading, check the US Embassy website or the Beijing Municipal Environmental Monitoring Center, whose readings both include PM2.5, or fine particulate matter.
Guillaume Zagury, chief medical officer and head of family medicine at the newly-opened OASIS Healthcare, says the main sufferers are asthmatics. He suggests always carrying an inhaler and avoiding travel during peak hours, when pollution levels are at their highest.
If you cannot avoid being out at times when the traffic is busy or you enjoy riding your bike, there are face masks that are effective air filters. "If somebody wants to wear a mask, then the N95 is suitable. [It] creates a barrier through which bacteria as small as one micron in diameter cannot pass," says Zagury. These are available on websites such as Taobao, Beijing Home Delivery, and Amazon.
Don't assume that being indoors gives you the all-clear from air pollution. To combat indoor pollution, consider investing in an air purifier. Popular brands include IQ Air, Alen and, Blueair.
One of the first health concerns that
foreigners will encounter is the issue of safe drinking water. There have been many complaints from local sources stating that pollution affects tap water in the form of chemicals such as fluoride and arsenic. In other words, tap water in China is not good for drinking. "International standards are usually not reached with the tap water and can lead to some infections," says Zagury.
Kaz Michalak has been living in Beijing since July 2003. When it comes to his 5-year-old daughter and 7-month-old son, he takes no risks with this issue and the family sticks to bottled water. Bottled water is available everywhere at RMB 2 per bottle and the cost is around RMB 16-18 per unit when purchasing a large jug for your water dispenser. Another option is installing a water filter on your kitchen tap, which can extract any harmful chemicals and create a constant flow of healthy water. Aquasana is a trusted brand among expats; the company sells filters for the sink, as well as the shower.
Beijing is renowned for its food, being a cosmopolitan city that features famous dishes from all over China. But it is no secret that food safety should be looked out for, especially all-too-frequent scandals concerning meat, dairy products, and cooking oil. Many restaurants use MSG in their food, which has been known to cause allergic reactions in some. Fortunately, food safety is becoming a top priority for locals and expats alike. This year, Beijing's local government promises to tighten up on food safety control, including a lifetime ban on working with food for any offenders.
To avoid any averse reactions when eating out, ask for your food to be cooked without MSG. Qing bufang weijing (请不放味精) means "Please don't add MSG." When it comes to cooking at home, Zagury suggests washing and cooking veggies, pasta and rice with distilled water. He adds, "Be careful when you buy fish, meat and dairy products, as the [refrigeration process]is often not respected." Michalak recommends sidestepping products you are unsure of by ordering imported organic meats and provisions online or through internationally-recognized chains like Carrefour.
There is also a range of organic farms in and around Beijing, including Green Cow Organic Farm and Little Donkey Farm, where vegetables are grown without pesticides. While some of Green Cow Organic Farm's produce is reserved for its CSA (Community-Supported Agriculture) members, about 50 percent is sent to its restaurant, Mrs. Shanen's Bagels. There's also De Run Wu, a local Buddhist farm and organic shop that stocks chemical-free juices and foods, along with natural healthcare products.
Many people moving to Beijing will be aware of the media attention highlighting the issue of lead-based paints in China. Research conducted in 2006 by health experts at the University of Cincinnati exposed China's toy exports, as millions of toys were found to contain harmful levels of lead. Even though this issue has faded from public view over the years, there are still precautions that all families ought to take when purchasing toys for their young ones. Many of the cheaply produced toys have small parts that are easily breakable and can be swallowed by small children. Check the condition of the toy and look out for things like peeling paint and splintering wood.
That said, Michalak says he has never had any problems when shopping for his two children. He advises: "To stay safe, buy brands that you are familiar with, like Chicco. In Beijing, these are all available [at]stores such as Mothercare, where you can trust what you are buying. You may be paying slightly more, but with young children, you can't afford to take any chances."
The UC study also exposed ceramic dishes in China that contained lead-based paints. Though these findings are six years old, stick to places
like Ikea for kitchenware to be on the safe side (see Directory under Shopping for details).
When Michalak first arrived in Beijing, he would buy clothes from local markets, but he stopped when he realized the material was "like sandpaper." Although Zagury has seen no instances of patients going to the hospital due to the quality of certain clothes, it doesn't hurt to be wary. Prevent unexpected skin reactions by buying from trustworthy brands.
Beijing has big retailers like Zara, Uniqlo, H&M, and Gap, the latter two of which have children's sections (see Directory under Shopping for details).
Taking these precautions might seem like a hassle, but they are important to ensure that your family has a fulfilling (and safe) experience in Beijing.

Clearly ecstatic to be in each others' company again.
Things are more fun with J.
Per our usual, we did a lot during this last long visit. Some highlights:
Walked the High Line
Super beardy - impressive, no? (We shaved it the next day...)
We hung out at home.
Can you see the cat?
We brunched with friends.
And I surprised him with a trip to the top of Rockefeller Center.
We also caught up with friends over dinner and drinks (the no name bar in my neighborhood is quickly becoming my favorite spot), rode the Staten Island Ferry, found this amazing little Japanese bar/eatery that is connected to a weird speak-easy, and made plans for my trip back to Ohio at the end of this month.
The days can't go by fast enough...

No Man's Sky creator Sean Murray has shared some interesting stories about their ambitious space exploration adventure.
Appearing on the excellent IGN Unfiltered, Murray told a few stories, including how the game was almost cancelled – and something about Kanye West (because that guy is everywhere).
Murray revealed how he actually nearly backed out of showing the first No Man's Sky trailer at the VGX awards show in 2013. Apparently feedback was not encouraging after showing the game to colleagues, so Murray was hesitant to show it at the event.
Thankfully, organizer Geoff Keighley told Murray the trailer was already built into the show, and thought it was good enough to put out. Murray agreed, and as you might remember, the trailer blew everyone away.
Unfortunately, just a few weeks after the first No Man's Sky trailer in December 2013, a flood hit developer Hello Games' office. The game was backed up, of course, but that didn't stop the team losing a fair amount of work. This is when Murray considered cancelling the game.
He explained:
I think if we hadn't announced the game–I nearly backed out of it–I think if we had backed out of it, and then had been flooded, it's hard to know…I think we might have canned No Man's Sky. Because we would have been feeling really unsure of it. When we were trying to back out of it, we were like, 'What have we been doing?'
However, Murray eventually came to see the flood as a bit of a blessing in disguise, as the team decided to really push forward with No Man's Sky from then on. The team of 10 was then divided into two units, with one team of six toiling away on the game in secret, while the other four worked on the Joe Danger series.
Apparently there was a bit of an odd dynamic between the team until the flood – They all worked together to clean out the office, build new PCs, and more, which helped the team reconnect and work together better.
Murray also discussed some of the celebrity interest in No Man's Sky at E3 2015. Director Steven Spielberg was among those to check out the game, but Kanye West (sadly) missed out. I know. I'm broken up about it too.
While West was prowling the show floor, checking out games, Hello Games didn't actually have a booth on the floor. That, unfortunately, is why Kanye never got to see the game. See? He was involved in his own way.
No Man's Sky is due out for PS4 and PC on June 21 in North America, June 22 in Europe, and June 24 in the UK.

Toronto House DJs
For True House Music Fiends Only.
WinterDaze, MixOne by Dino & Terry (Strictly House Music)
April 01, 2011 10:06 AM PDT
dattrax: I got this tape from a friend (who is now a house producer and DJ) back before Industry Nightclub closed down. My memory of the timeline is foggy. But it was like Christmas morning to me listening to this wicked tape. I cherished this tape. Played the crap out of it in my Aiwa walkman cassette player; no Sony's are called walkmans.
Beginning to end the house music flows from song to song and it's just beautiful. If anyone can listen to this beginning to end and not like house music, there's no hope- they'll be stuck in the top 40 world of crap.
Dino & Terry have been rocking crowds in Toronto with their sophisticated brand of deep & vocal infused house music since before I got into house in early 1990. I just attended two parties recently in 2011 by Studio+ and they killed it!! Jim, my best friend and DJ partner turned to me at the last party in the middle of DT's set and said "If we close our eyes, then we'd be 19 again". The music created such an unbelievable vibe that night- just like the old warehouse days.WinterDaze, MixTwo by Dino & Terry (Strictly House Music)
April 01, 2011 10:27 AM PDT
dattrax: Dino & Terry are legends in the Toronto House Scene since mid-1980s. A lot of people went to parties they DJ'ed at and got hooked! A handful of DJs influenced thousands to love, dance to, make or DJ house. This two part mix is just a small representation of what their music is like. Always top shelf. Classy. Proper house music.
There are right now three mixes by Dino & Terry at Toronto HOUSE DJ Mixes on Facebook:
Can't wait till their next installment, hopefully before spring 2011
BTW.. 'Yes', I got permission from Dino to do this. And Aki for the other two mixes on this site."1996" by AKI, mixone (Strictly Classic House, Vocal House, Deep House)

There would be illegal 'warehouse parties' every Saturday night starting at 1am and finishing at 5am-7am. There would be 6-8 different spots House Headz would wander to even if they weren't told by anyone. They were usually by Spadina & Dundas, or Bathurst & King, or Richmond & Peter, King & Dufferin or that whole strip down at Wellington and a bunch off the beaten path.
No flyers or flyer people, no text messaging, no email, no facecrack, no cell phones used by the masses (i think i got my first motorola cantel in '93 and it was huge- probably fit inside a box of straws)- super low tech. Word of mouth only.
Sometimes there would be a guy standing at one of the usual locations telling people where the party really was. There were about 5-6 promoters that I can remember, that's it.
The spaces were just holes in the wall, pitch black, sometimes a light bulb or two or some candles. I can't believe we weren't scared going to abandoned warehouses and buildings or real estate properties that were in construction or temporary vacant. It looked like they broke in, plugged in the power and threw a party!
Last call in Toronto was at 12:45am and no one served booze after 1am. But at the warehouses, $5 cover and $5 a luke warm beer in a cheap plastic cup. No anti-smoking, so smoked filled rooms. I remember smoking in shopping malls and movie theatres still (at least at an Asian movie theatre at Dundas & Spadina).
Sometimes no washroom facilities, but every time you'd have to go line up 20mins before you needed to go. Usually no toilet paper. Now no one will go anywhere unless the place looks like millions were spent.
The crowd was awesome. Every party... you'd walk in and there would be 50-100 people with their hands in the air, smoke everywhere, no one just standing around staring at people. You actually couldn't do that because there wasn't enough light.
All types of people, young & old, black & white, housers & hip-hop guys, gays & straights, you name it. They came for the two turntables, mixer and a few bass bins and a few hallow sounding speakers set up in a corner near the DJ area (no booths).

At that time every weekend we'd fork over the $5 bucks to listen and dance to our favourite DJs like Mark & Aki, Dino & Terry, Peter, Tyrone and Shams, known as "PTS", DJ Eric Ling & Patrick "D-Nice" Hodges.
The second wave of DJs we'd always partied to were: Kevin Williams (although Kevin was my first experience with live house music at Go-Go's on Richmond St. and later on Kat Club near Church St., I don't recall going to many warehouses where he spun at), Dave Campbell & Jason Palma.
Jim, my best friend of many years and DJ Partner grew up listening to these guys. I don't know who else has fond memories from those times like we do, but these guys were legends in our minds and because of them, we grew to love house music, loved to dance till the AMs, and got into DJing.
Classic house tracks got a lot of attention those days because not very much of it was coming out in Toronto. They may have been 10-30records coming out each week, but I doubt that much. The hot ones got scooped up by the same dozen DJs. People would know the songs after a few weeks because everyone had the same tracks. And for bedroom DJs, we would have the vinyls, make our own mixed tapes, buy or get mixed tapes from DJs and go to parties that played the same tracks. It sounds boring, but it wasn't, every DJ had their own style and it was amazing fun!!
This mix that AKI made is incredible and beautiful from start to finish. The end of side B is a little warped sounding because I mangled the original tape playing it so much (burned out a ton of walkmans).
THANK YOU AKI for one of the best house mixed tapes I ever got!!
The way he brings in the tracks, the flow, and the house music... WOW. Makes you want to stomp it out. This is what we looked forward each saturday after working all week at our crappy, low paying jobs.
This mix might not do anything to you if you weren't part of that era, but who knows maybe some newbies will enjoy this two special part mixes of Toronto history.
Cheers, dattrax
BTW... These two mixes are originally from a double sided cassette tape made in 1996 by AKI. Mixed at his home, recapturing his famed "Mark & Aki" parties. Mixed on two technics 1200's vinyl turntables and a mixer. There were no single channel EQ's on both channels/line in's in those DJ mixers back then. Which makes these two mixes even more incredible.
Enjoy, dattrax
Podcast Summary
dattrax is Jim and Dat, Best Friends for almost two decades, DJ Duo and House Fiends! From Toronto, Ontario, Canada!
We only listen to, play house music or anything that would sound good mixed with it.
Come enjoy our passion and please comment after listening. This site was created to highlight some of our favourite mixes made by other TORONTO HOUSE DJS.
from DJ Bio: "...I was in love with house and DJing when I realised that it wasn't music in the sense of Mozart, but a form of self expression- participating in making a musical collage. Like a musical cut and paste. You get to pick your favourite songs, how fast or slow, or how long you want to play it, which part of the song you want to highlight, whether you want to cut it up or layer it, whether you want the feel to be smooth or charging, whether you want... The combinations are endless w/ house music, and that much fun!"

[Source: Mark Cowling, Casa Grande Newspaper] -- Preservationists were abuzz last week with reports that the historic James E. McGee house - better known today as the Pinal County Visitor Center - was slated for demolition. McGee was a former Arizona Ranger who had served several years as Pinal County Sheriff when he died unexpectedly after a short illness in 1914. But if the house is about to be razed, it's news to Pinal County, which owns the building, county government spokesman Joe Pyritz said. He said the building comes up for evaluation periodically, as do all county facilities, but there has been no decision to tear it down.
McGee still has at least one relative left in Florence. Dottie Borree's grandmother was a sister of McGee's wife, Mary, who was a two-term county recorder and the local postmaster for many years. Mrs. Borree said she was startled to hear last week that preservationists were calling the visitor center at 330 E. Butte Ave. the "McGee house." "I don't ever remember a McGee in that house," she said Monday. Rather, she remembered her Aunt Mary in a bigger house, facing the old courthouse, which the county tore down years ago. Yet historical sources such as the state "Historic Property Inventory Form" and the National Historic Register Information System call it the "James E. and Mary McGee House."

Trilby's Svengali was a character of fiction. Conversely, Marc Breed, has captivated a generation with such a unique and engaging personality that we've allowed him the ultimately luxury of a true freedom. The Art he has created, as a result of this, only seems odd; in that we view it while tinged with envy. That we in Cleveland possess such a close-up look, should be a source of extreme pride. For we may live vicariously through his artistic rampage among us.ReplyDelete

An AERS Nurse or Social Worker can visit a vulnerable person in their home to complete an assessment of their health and overall situation to determine that person's eligibility for certain programs and services.
As part of an AERS assessment, a resource list is shared with the client and referrals might be made for local case management, Medical Adult Day Care (MADC), or other services and supports as eligible. (Please note that some of these programs may have a "wait list.") AERS representatives can re-assess the client each year or when there is a significant change in the client's situation which might affect the type of services they need (client or family can call to request another evaluation as needed).
AERS also conducts the assessment that helps to determine an individual's eligibility for Community First Choice (CFC). CFC is a program that provides personal care support for individuals based on their needs and eligibility (CFC is only available to those who receive straight Medical Assistance - not SLMB or QMB) - AERS completes the initial assessment for CFC and it is then determined if the person will receive a "level of care" for this type of assistance. CFC assists chronically ill, frail elderly, or disabled people to remain in their own home by providing personal care assistance for activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, eating and so on. For those who are approved for the program, personal care services are provided by an approved Agency Provider who is supervised by a nurse monitor. Personal Care Providers are not hired or employed through the AERS office.
Referrals for AERS assessments may come from any source (self, family, physicians, MADC, VA, etc.). The program is voluntary (when a referral is made, the person has the right to accept the offer for an evaluation or to decline). Assessments are provided at no cost to the client or family.
Contact the AERS office at 410-479-8055 to determine if an AERS assessment could benefit you or someone you know. When making a referral, please try to have as much information as possible so that we can determine if the person is eligible for services (name, address, phone number, contact info for the person's Power of Attorney or other involved support person, date of birth and social security number if those are known, and the reason for your referral). We will then contact the client to tell them about AERS and offer an evaluation in order to tell them about programs and services that might make sense for them in their individual situation.
The center offers job readiness training, job skills enhancement, employment referrals, career counseling, case management, resume assistance, special programs and workshops, and assistance making job contacts. Special assistance available to veterans.

Aussie Banks harbour own Innovation Ambitions
Thursday, 10 Nov 2016
Thursday, 10 Nov 2016
How long will they keep buying access to fintechs?
Australia's banks are putting tens of millions of dollars behind fintechs but have long-term ambitions to disrupt the current breed of disruptors, a banking expert has said.
Capgemini Australia's industry practice leader for banking and capital markets Philip Gomm told Information Age he believed the Big 4 harboured ambitions to create internal innovation capabilities to rival that which they currently bought in from fintech start-ups.
Banks in Australia have put considerable funds behind start-ups in order to understand their business models, such as Westpac through Reinventure and the many institutions that back Stone & Chalk.
Capgemini estimates that around $2 billion flowed into Australian fintechs between 2009 and 2015.
"The incumbents know that the fintechs are changing the industry landscape," Gomm said.
"They're looking at investment in fintech, they're looking to partner, they're looking to collaborate, they're looking to understand the culture and mindset of the fintech disruptor.
"But in a way, they're wanting to get access to the same technology so they can disrupt the disruptor."
However, if banks harbour an ambition to replicate the innovation that they currently source from start-ups, it appears the process of building that internal capability will take some time.
"[The banks are] struggling to successfully develop innovation capabilities themselves and achieve the desired results, and that's still holding them back," Gomm said.
"They're prepared to partner and collaborate [for now] but their ultimate game is to transform.
"They know that the status quo is not going to remain the same, and the status quo is not adequate.
"They need to go through their own transformation program, and they're not naïve to the scope and scale of the transformation that needs to take place as they move towards digital."
Fintech is one of the key battlegrounds for how much control the banking sector is willing to relinquish in the race to modernize.

Trouble upstairs: Members leaving and newspaper 'ineffective', BNP officers told
Nick Griffin, the British National Party leader, may have been wrong-footed by this year's attempt to mount a challenge to his position. Colin Auty, a BNP councillor in Dewsbury until he resigned from the party in July, failed narrowly to gain the 100 signatures he needed to stand against Griffin but the attempt seems to have panicked the party leadership.
An extraordinary general meeting held at the end of the party's Red, White and Blue festival last month was supposed to make it much more difficult for anyone to challenge Griffin in future. However BNP members led by Richard Barnbrook, the party's top man in London, threw out a proposal that the party chairman should be elected for a four-year fixed term, leaving in place the present annual right to call an election.
A change to the party constitution that did get passed was that candidates for leader will now have to obtain the backing of 5% of members with more than two years' unbroken membership of the party instead of the present 100 signatures from members of two years' standing, where the candidate is not a party office-holder. Those few people designated as office-holders need only 10 signatures.
Auty's supporters condemned the decision, calculating that with the leadership claiming around 10,000 members, it meant a challenger would need up to 500 signatures to stand. Griffin therefore "did in fact walk away with the entire Party almost secured in his back pocket unnoticed by most of the membership present", they said.
In reality it means nothing of the sort. The latest BNP accounts certainly state that the party had 9,784 members at 31 December 2007, compared to 6,281 at 31 December 2006. And Searchlight has acquired minutes of a meeting on 20 July 2008 of the BNP's Advisory Council (AC), which brings together all the BNP's leading officers, in which the membership at 14 July 2008 is said to be 9,175, the drop no doubt the result of the dissent in the BNP last winter.
However, Tina Wingfield, the membership secretary, expresses concern at the very low renewal rate of new members. Of the 373 and 854 new memberships processed in February and March 2007, she reported to the AC, only 32% and 39% respectively renewed the following year. And of the 9,175 members in July, 1,832 had joined between March and June 2008.
These revelations suggest that the number of people with more than two years' party membership is at the most 2,000 and possibly no more than 1,000. A further indication appears in the report to the AC from the education and training department, which stated that the number of "voting members" was a mere 243. Members only qualify for this status if they have been in the party for at least two years, though they also have to meet activist and ideological training conditions.
It does not take much mathematical genius to calculate that 5% of a possible 2,000 qualifying members is 100, the same as the present endorsers needed to challenge Griffin. And if, as is more likely, the two-year membership figure is little more than 1,000, a challenger would have to find a mere 50 or so supporters.
A further change to the constitution introduces a new opportunity for just 20 voting members to demand a leadership challenge at the party's autumn annual general meeting. But as voting members have to undergo ideological training by Arthur Kemp, the South African white supremacist and former apartheid regime spook who rose rapidly to a senior role in the BNP last year, Griffin is no doubt confident of their trustworthiness.
Attacking Searchlight
Kemp is editor of the BNP's website and has until recently been acting managing director of the party's Excalibur merchandising operation and responsible for the distribution of the party's monthly publications, Identity and Voice of Freedom. These tasks have left him with little time to attend to BNP propaganda efforts, but the one "successful" project he was able to report to the July meeting was "an eight-page full colour booklet entitled 'Searchlightexposed.com'".
This, he explained, "was not for general distribution", but "was sent directly to the editors, political journalists and senior journalists at all major mainstream newspapers around the country," and "played a major role in the very low amount of publicity given by the mainstream media to Searchlight-propaganda during the election campaign".
Only in Kemp's dreams! Media coverage of the BNP in the run-up to the elections of 1 May showed no evidence that journalists and editors had done anything other than bin the BNP's eight pages of lies and libels.
The production of this booklet, a tactic Kemp says "will be repeated at regular intervals", proves only that our anti-BNP campaigns are effective and are hurting the BNP. Griffin's introduction to the party's 2007 accounts complains angrily about "third party disparagers" of the BNP in election campaigns, funded by the trade unions, and singles out the Daily Mirror, which printed "hundreds of thousands of copies of a special supplement directed against the BNP". This of course is the supplement prepared in conjunction with Searchlight, an exercise that the Mirror successfully repeated this year alongside our Hope not Hate campaign.
AC members were not able to question Kemp about his dubious claims as he was unable to attend the meeting. One man who was present and may have helped Kemp compile the torrent of lies was Lance Stewart, the shadowy head of the BNP's intelligence department and former high-ranking member of the South African police. Other notable BNP personalities at the AC, which has little real power in a party run as Griffin's personal fiefdom, included Barnbrook; his Barking and Dagenham council colleague Bob Bailey; Jennie Noble, the BNP's new treasurer; Michaela Mackenzie, the national nominating officer; Martin Reynolds who heads the BNP's thuggish security section; the unpopular Mark Collett and David Hannam both supposedly demoted last winter to appease the BNP rebels; Peter Mullins and Mike Howson from the South West; the deputy leader Simon Darby and of course Griffin himself.
Also present was Martin Wingfield, editor of Voice of Freedom, the BNP's tabloid newspaper, who must have been dismayed when Griffin said that his publication had proved ineffective as a recruitment tool and may be discontinued, although it might remain in online form.
Another suggestion discussed was to publish only bimonthly to save on the £3,258 a month it costs to have the paper printed and shipped from Lithuania. This amounts to 17p a copy, which is rather a lot considering most copies are not sold but given away. And that does not include the £600 the party pays to transport the papers to branches from the BNP warehouse in North Wales each month.
The unit cost is so high because contrary to the tens of thousands of copies the BNP has always claimed to distribute, the print run is only 19,000, according to the AC minutes. Considering how many copies are given away to members of the public, one can only conclude that most party members cannot be bothered to subscribe to the paper.
Three years ago police seized the entire print run of Voice of Freedom in Dover, on its way from Slovakia where it was then being printed. Reports at the time mentioned 60,000 copies. Has the BNP been lying or has Wingfield presided over a disastrous fall in circulation at a time when the BNP has supposedly been so successful in attracting support?
The minutes record that "a printer in the North East" has offered 100,000 copies at 3.5p per copy but clearly the only use the party would have for such a print run would be to feed the recycling bins at the BNP warehouse.
The AC also heard that support for and development of party branches and groups had been a problem area since the expulsion last December of Sadie Graham, the party's former group development officer and one of the leaders of the party rebels. Her departure followed that of Ian Dawson as head of group support a few months earlier. Tina Wingfield reported: "Before January of this year, we had two individuals on the full-time staff dedicated to group development and group support and their departure has left a vacuum in our administrative structure that needs to be filled".
To the rescue came the ubiquitous Kemp, who will take over group support in his time out from attacking Searchlight. One of his first tasks, it seems, will be to train the apparently large number of local party organisers who do not know how to use computers.
The AC was unable to complete its agenda through lack of time but not before discussing an approach by Ashley Mote to head the BNP candidates' list for the South East in next year's European elections. Mote is currently an independent MEP, having been expelled from the UK Independence Party following his conviction for housing benefit fraud.
Collett and some others felt the publicity of an ex-UKIP MEP joining the BNP would rejuvenate the party, others did not trust Mote to stay with the BNP if elected. The upshot was that the AC voted to reject Mote's offer apparently on the grounds that his conviction would result in adverse publicity and prove detrimental to the party's reputation, a view the party does not normally take towards its members' convictions.

Kemp is a thoroughly simpering individual and exactly the 'punchy and pervy' type one would expect to be hanging around the arse of that other punchy and pervy slimball Gri££in.
Although you say that potentially any further challenges to Gri££in may only need 100 or less eligible signatories to support it, there is one area you have neglected to mention. Who they hell are they?
Can we honestly expect 'Gri££inism' to hand over to a potential challenger a list of all those eligible to support them?
This whole situation is utterly despicable. The man sickens me.

I blame Shadie Graham , Kenny Jock Smith, Dreadful Dawson and Spooky Steve Blake for all the leaks that have taken place in the BNP to the vile ratbags of Searchlight.
I sacked them all in December but they continue to spy on me and my new management team and I am deeply worried how they can get so close to whats going on, after all I have the best security my money can buy, well OK, the best security I'm prepared to pay which isnt much, Family Man Martin does it for a quick casual handfull - of notes you dirty minded bleeders - to watch my back at all times. But the recession is being to bite my investments here and offshore and its a fact that my members, new and old, fat and thin, rich and poor(OK- thats stretching it a bit far) alike have nothing but my deepest appreciation for every penny they place on the plate. Now Ive got to smoke out the pesky traitor who sold the AC minutes to Shona Garble and make an example of him (or her...not that it could be a her.....or could it? Bugger!)
I know I'll ring my deputy - he can give it to me straight, not that Ive anything against anyone who isnt straight. Bloody hell Im really putting my foot in it verbally of course. No It's Simon's weekly visit to London on a Friday night where he gets pumped thoroughly in the debriefing room which is something beefy Martin is into as well. Never quite understood that - Wingers said that was a double entendre but as Wellington said you must hate the French and their double whatsitsname as you would Mark Collett, no, not my love child sired by Satan, I mean hate the French as you would the Devil. Thats it, the mole must be a Frenchman.......

text: Finally finishing this quilt I started for my son before life took a break to get crazy. It is finally basted. Took me hours yesterday. I think I will try spray basting next time. My fingers and back still hurt (I have to lay the quilt out on the floor). Anyway, I handquilt and thought I would stitch in the ditch. I have only done that one other time. And then I stitched about a quarter inch in from the seam. How do/would you do this? Would you stitch around every square in the four patch or just the four patch itself? And what about the border? The quilt measures about 70x64. Thanks!
