World worst blogger right here! I can't believe it has been nearly two months since I have posted any type of substantial content on the blog! Life has been so busy and I've gotten in the slump of updating on InstaGram or the blog FaceBook page since it is much quicker than sitting down and blogging!
But, we've had big things happen over the past two months and have BIG things coming in the next few months!
So what have we been up to?
*If you follow me on IG, you know that I've recently started on a new health/ fitness journey. After feeling unhealthy and blah for months I am finally putting my health as a priority and have been regularly working out for about a month now. I'm averaging about 15 miles of cardio a week (not huge but it's better than nothing) as well as some very minor strength training. I'm hoping to start a class like BodyPump or something similar soon! I am just so intimidated by those types of classes for some reason! I've also revamped my diet and while I wish the number on the scale would drop faster, I'm feeling so much more energetic these days!
I'm certain I will have lots to blog about as we prepare to list our house, start looking for a new home, and finally make the move to the burbs!
Now, let's hope I can take these snippets of our life over the past few months and actually blog about them!! I really do miss the outlet of writing and updating. I have so many thoughts floating around in my head and I truly hope I can prioritize my time so that blogging can fit back into my schedule!

London UK 14:40 Hrs - Buckingham Palace announced today, to the great shock of the nation and Parliamentary Ministers that Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth 2 has announced she is to abdicate.
The news came as a shock to all including Prince Charles The Prince of Wales (next in line to the throne).
The news was broken by Her Majesty at 8pm last night, she called her Royal Press Secretary and apparently said "that's it, I've had enough". She told her private secretary to call Charles or Wales as he is known in the family circles and tell him to "be prepared"
On hearing the news The Prince of Wales issued a press statement he said " We are sure Mother has made the right decision and although it is very rare for this to take place with an English Monarch it is after all the Twenty First century and times change. I will gratefully take up my position as King of England with all the responsibilities that entails, I shall be Defender of all Faiths and your new Queen Camela......

Stress relaxation tests using a custom designed microindentation device were performed on ten anatomic regions of fresh porcine brain (postmortem time <3 h). Using linear viscoelastic theory, a Prony series representation was used to describe the shear relaxation modulus for each anatomic region tested. Prony series parameters fit to load data from indentations performed to ∼10% strain differed significantly by anatomic region. The gray and white matter of the cerebellum along with corpus callosum and brainstem were the softest regions measured. The cortex and hippocampal CA1/CA3 were found to be the stiffest. To examine the large strain behavior of the tissue, multistep indentations were performed in the corona radiata to strains of 10%, 20%, and 30%. Reduced relaxation functions were not significantly different for each step, suggesting that quasi-linear viscoelastic theory may be appropriate for representing the nonlinear behavior of this anatomic region of porcine brain tissue. These data, for the first time, describe the dynamic and short time scale behavior of multiple anatomic regions of the porcine brain which will be useful for understanding porcine brain injury biomechanics at a finer spatial resolution than previously possible.
Coronal schematic of the porcine brain sliced through (a) the cortex and thalamus and (b) the cerebellum and brainstem. All anatomic regions tested in this study are labeled.
(a) Measured indentation profile for a single indentation. (b) Average load for a soft region (cerebellum gray matter; CbmG) and a stiff region (cortex) with the theoretical load calculated from the hereditary integral of the indenter displacement and the fit relaxation function.
(a) G10 ms , (b) G50 ms , and (c) G∞ (note change in scale) from Prony series fits for each region for 10% indentation strain (CA1 = hippocampal CA1, CA3 = hippocampal CA3, DG = dentate gyrus, Ctx = cortex, Th = thalamus, CR = corona radiata, CC = corpus callosum, BS = brainstem, CbmG = cerebellum gray matter, CbmW = cerebellum white matter). (d) Results from post hoc tests for G∞ . (*, p < 0.0011; mean ±95% confidence interval.)
(a) Relaxation modulus plotted using Prony series parameters for each region from Table 1 (inset = 0 to 0.1 s). (b) KS statistic showing significant differences in time-dependent shear relaxation shown in (a), Bonferoni-corrected for multiple comparisons between each region (*, p < 0.0011).
(a) Average load for all three step indentations in corona radiata with Prony series fits performed at each indentation. (b) Prony series fit parameters for each step analyzed individually. (c) Equilibrium (G∞ ) and short-term (G10 ms ) modulus from fit parameters for each indentation (mean ±95% confidence interval; G50 ms not shown also increases with indentation strain). (d) Reduced relaxation function normalized to G10 ms for each step indentation. (n = 14 indentations in tissue from eight animals.)

Today's victim is Kevin Wetmore. ANSWER THE QUESTIONS, ERE THE OTHER SIDE HE SEE!
WETMORE: Ask me the questions, Blogkeeper! I'm not afraid!
Question 1: What inspired you to write stories with a humorous bent?
I think my output goes back and forth between straight horror and humorous horror. I'll write a piece about a haunted house killing children and then turn around and write a story about a family of ghouls adopting a retired cadaver dog. I think being a horror fan is to appreciate the grim side of things. It also doesn't hurt that in my other life I am a standup comedian. One of the most memorable moments of television when I was a child was watching "An Evening at the Improv" hosted by Vincent Price, one of my favorite actors (I was a weird kid). Price came out and said he thought the audience might be surprised to see an actor known for horror hosting a comedy show, but he has a sense of humor, just like everyone else. He then paused and said, "So, two mangled corpses walk into a bar..." I thought it was a great joke, but also a good setup for straight horror too. I look back and think, man when I heard that joke, on some level I thought "I want to do that, too."
Question 2: Which is harder, writing a horror scene or writing a humor scene?
For me, no question - horror is harder. I find it pretty easy to slide into the absurd or the humourously grotesque. In fact, sometimes it is a problem in writing horror in that I realize I am drifting into parody or camp or the piece is so over the top it is not scary but kinda goofy. Writing a scene that stays with the reader, that gives her or him the chills and cuts a little deeper is always a challenge for me.
Question 3: So was Mad Max Fury Road robbed of Best Picture at the Oscars or what?!
Yeah, but are you surprised? All of the awards ignore genre except for special effects. The fact that Norman Reedus has never been nominated for an Emmy or a Golden Globe for "Walking Dead" is proof that the award-givers are prejudiced against genre. And, speaking now as an actor as well, which is harder: to play a realistic scene in an office or a bedroom and make people believe it is real or to play a scene which has animated corpses attacking people and make the audience believe it? In terms of good, old-fashioned filmmaking, Mad Max Fury Road (with mostly in camera effects and an A list cast) deserved far more recognition than it has gotten. But remember, the year Citizen Kane came out, "How Green Was My Valley" won Best Picture; the Year Star Wars was released (a film, it should be noted which might just be the most influential film in history), "Annie Hall" won best picture. Which one now appears dated and which one has profoundly changed Hollywood? Awards mean nothing. Did you like it? Good. Who cares who else recognizes it?
Question 4: If you had a choice between classic monsters - the vampire, the golem, the werewolf, the ghost, the gill-man - which one would you throw a coconut custard pie with whipped cream at?
Easy question - werewolf. When he stops to lick his fur clean, you can capture him and then the fun really begins. It'd be wasted on the others (goes through a ghost, falls off the gill-man, and what good is cream pie on a golem?
Question 5: and why did that pie end up hitting Humphrey Bogart instead?
Long story. The point is, we all agreed not to sue each other and Bogart and the werewolf ended up buying a timeshare together. Happy ending!
The real answer to EACH QUESTION was and forever is: Not Enough Llama. Prepare for the incoming punishment...
Kevin Wetmore is an actor/writer/stunt coordinator/piemaker/carwasher/academic professor/bellboy from the corrupt multi-dimensional prison known as Los Angeles. He has strong alibis regarding his whereabouts on all occasions due to his busy work schedule, so he doesn't have to answer any further questions regarding that incident with the guy at that place with the thing, besides he has an attorney on the way and he knows his Miranda rights, so there nyah.

John was born in Malmsbury, VIC in 1891 to Robert Emmett and Janet Allen.
John was a machinist and gave his address as Prahran, VIC when he enlisted in the AIF, 6th Battalion on the 17th of August 1914 - shortly after the war was declared - aged 23. At the time he was serving in the 55th Battalion of the Australian Infantry Regiment. John embarked aboard the HMAT A20 Hororata in October, disembarking in Egypt in December.
John landed at Gallipoli on the 25th of April 1915 and was later wounded in action - possibly during 1st Battle of Krithia when the 2nd Brigade, of which the 6th Battalion was a part, lost almost a third of its strength.
On the 11th of May on board the HMT Southland, bound from Gallipoli to Alexandria, Egypt, John died of his wounds and was buried at sea. John is remembered in the Lone Pine Memorial, Gallipoli, Turkey.
He is listed on the Roll of Honour for Bacchus Marsh and District, published in The Bacchus Marsh Express on the 21st of December 1918.

It's almost difficult to believe that "normal" weather is shortly to return to Northern California, probably by the time you read this. For the past two and a half weeks or so, we've had simply spectacular weather... no rain, pretty darned warm for winter, simply perfect for cycling. Sales at our stores this past weekend were pretty wild, so it wasn't just me out there riding.
Today's ride was the usual Pescadero/Tunitas Creek loop, and Kevin's first ride of length in two weeks, due to his recovery from a tendon or ligament issue in LaCrosse just over a week ago. As a result I wasn't really sure of "which" Kevin would be riding with me today, but it didn't take long to find out. Heading out Canada Road & Mountain Home it was Kevin taking the lead, and finally getting a respectable (for him) time up Old LaHonda, something just over 24 minutes. No biggie, except that his last couple times up the hill had been in the 28 minute range and he just hadn't been feeling like his old self. And the climb up Haskins Grade to Pescadero was even faster, under 12 minutes from the "Icy Road" sign at the bottom to the top. Last week, on my own, it took me just over 10 minutes on that same climb, and I wasn't holding back.
The Pescadero Bakery was full of cyclists, with a large group from the east bay (Grizzly Peak Cyclists) enjoying the coast. They had probably been concerned on the drive to their start (in Woodside) since it had been pretty foggy on the bay side in the morning, but it was certainly nice on the coast. The fog was sitting right at the coast, keeping things cool but not cold. There was a bit of a wind coming in from the ocean, something we had to fight against getting out to Pescadero, and then again heading north on Stage Road. I just drove into it, making sure Kevin was able to stay on my wheel, along with another local customer of ours out on his own ride. We rode with him all the way to San Gregorio, at a pace up the two Stage Road climbs that seriously challenged Kevin, but he hung in there. Not bad for as little real riding as he's had since things kinda fell apart for him when he had his kidney issue for three months.
On Tunitas we were aided a bit on the lower stretch by a mild tail wind (we'd never admit to a strong one!) and things went well until the climb started and it became apparent that had pretty much run out of gas. Not at all surprising, given how hard he'd pushed himself earlier. He kept at it, but about halfway up one of his epileptic seizures stopped him cold. Thankfully this one, as is the case with most, gives him enough warning to come to a stop and get off the bike, and he was back on within just a few minutes, but it's got to be more than a minor annoyance to him that such things can occur with some regularity.
In the end it was the usual 58 or so miles and 6100ft or so of climbing, so both the legs and the computer confirm it as a "tough" ride. Oh, the "Wisconsin friends" refers to another visit from some Trek folk this afternoon and tomorrow, who have flown out from not-so-sunny Wisconsin to help us out with making us a better retailer. They seem willing to fly just about anywhere during the winter, especially places that are warmer. And that means just about anyplace outside of Wisconsin. :-)

"Will you tickle my back, mama?"
I heard her whisper from halfway down the stairs as I sat scrolling Facebook on my phone. She had been in bed for 30 minutes already, but on this night she was needing that extra touch only mom can give.
"Okay hon, I'll be up as soon as I finish this," I said softly, hoping none of the other kids would hear. I had just come across a news article shared by a friend: One dead and 19 injured as car strikes crowds along route of white nationalist rally in Charlottesville; two police die in helicopter crash. In just the few hours it took to eat dinner and put the kids to bed, I had missed important news.
The more I read, the more my heart broke. Just yesterday, before the torch-bearing hate march began at the University of Virginia, I shared a blog about the need for racial reconciliation in the Church, evangelicalism in particular. The responses were varied, but it met a good bit of criticism and defensiveness from my white friends (as expected). I had spent several hours on my phone throughout the day responding to people I love and respect who, for whatever reasons, do not see the problems I am seeing – and so many of our brothers and sisters of color are screaming! – in the Church.
How to we bridge this divide?
When I saw news of the march Friday night, I cringed, prayed, and honestly hoped for the best. Then my privilege and I went to bed and enjoyed a good night's rest that was not afforded to the people of color that fear for their lives in the face of emboldened domestic terrorists who gather on public university campuses. I won't get that kind of rest tonight, because friends, I am staying up with you, praying with you, asking God how I can use my position and privilege to defend and protect you. And I am doing everything in my power to influence a generation that will do the same. How do we bridge this divide? Arthur Ashe said, "Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can." For me, it starts at home.
"Sweet girl," I whispered, fingers gliding gently along her skin in fluid strokes as her breathing became slower and her shoulders melted into the pillow. "I am so proud of you."
"Why, mama?"
"I am so proud of the way you love other people, and when you see someone hurting another person, you don't just sit back and watch. You do something about it. You aren't afraid to stand up to bullies and tell them not to talk to your friends that way. You tell the teacher when someone is hurt. You don't back down. I want you to promise me you will ALWAYS do that. Because in your life, you're going to see a lot of people doing the wrong thing. And even worse, you're going to see a lot more people not doing a thing about it. They'll ignore it, justify it, or say it's none of their business. They will tell you to stay out of it. But don't you listen. When you see someone doing something wrong, you stand up and do what is right. You have that deep inside you, I know you do."
"How do you know that, mama?"
"I know because that is the Holy Spirit in you. God made you so very sensitive. You hear when he talks to you, and you are upset when you see people hurting others. God gave you a voice and position, and you must always use it to help other people. You remember when we talked about our words, how they can be hurtful words or healing words? I want your voice to be healing, because there is so much hurt, baby. God wants to use you to help people. Don't you ever be afraid to help. Okay??"
"Okay, mama," she whispered. "You know, I really want a guitar, so I can write songs. Maybe that's how I can use my voice."

Standard advice about preparing for disasters focuses on building shelters and stockpiling things like food, water and batteries. But resilience – the ability to recover from shocks, including natural disasters – comes from our connections to others, and not from physical infrastructure or disaster kits. Almost six years ago, Japan faced a paralyzing triple disaster: a massive earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear meltdowns that forced 470,000 people to evacuate from more than 80 towns, villages and cities. My colleagues and I investigated how communities in the hardest-hit areas reacted to these shocks, and found that social networks – the horizontal and vertical ties that connect us to others – are our most important defense against disasters.

Replacing a laptop screen
Posted on August 18, 2016 at 2:22 pm
Laptops can be vital to our day to day working life and also are often used on a daily basis at home. Many people now have laptops instead of PC's which allows them to save space and also take it with them where ever they go.
Although laptops can be very handy they are often not the most resilient of technology and can quite easily be damaged.
Screens on laptops are often one of the components that gets damaged due to the laptop being dropped or stood on. This can make the laptop unusable especially if it has cracked or shattered through the middle of the screen.
If you take your laptop to a professional computer repairs specialist then you can expect to pay upwards of £60 for a new screen but did you know often it is quite easy to repair it yourself.
You can buy a new screen off Ebay or Amazon often for as little as £15 – £25 and just by watching a quick tutorial on YouTube, can have the screen replaced within minutes.

Nobel Prize in Physics (1973)
Ivar Giaever (Norwegian: Giæver; born April 5, 1929) is a physicist who shared the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1973 with Leo Esaki and Brian Josephson "for their discoveries regarding tunnelling phenomena in solids".[1] Giaever's share of the prize was specifically for his "experimental discoveries regarding tunnelling phenomena in superconductors".[2] Giaever is an institute professor emeritus at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, a professor-at-large at the University of Oslo, and the president of Applied Biophysics.[3]
Early life and education
Giaever earned a degree in mechanical engineering from the Norwegian Institute of Technology in Trondheim in 1952. In 1954, he emigrated from Norway to Canada, where he was employed by the Canadian division of General Electric. He moved to the United States four years later, joining General Electric's Corporate Research and Development Center in Schenectady, New York, in 1958. He has lived in Niskayuna, New York, since then, taking up US citizenship in 1964. While working for General Electric, Giaever earned a Ph.D. at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1964.[4]
The Nobel Prize
The work that led to Giaever's Nobel Prize was performed at General Electric in 1960. Following on Esaki's discovery of electron tunnelling in semiconductors in 1958, Giaever showed that tunnelling also took place in superconductors, demonstrating tunnelling through a very thin layer of oxide surrounded on both sides by metal in a superconducting or normal state.[5] Giaever's experiments demonstrated the existence of an energy gap in superconductors, one of the most important predictions of the BCS theory of superconductivity, which had been developed in 1957.[6] Giaever's experimental demonstration of tunnelling in superconductors stimulated the theoretical physicist Brian Josephson to work on the phenomenon, leading to his prediction of the Josephson effect in 1962. Esaki and Giaever shared half of the 1973 Nobel Prize, and Josephson received the other half.[1]
Giaever's research later in his career was mainly in the field of biophysics. In 1969, he researched Biophysics for a year as a fellow at Clare Hall, University of Cambridge, through a Guggenheim Fellowship, and he continued to work in this area after he returned to the US.[4]
He has co-signed a letter from over 70 Nobel laureate scientists to the Louisiana Legislature supporting the repeal of Louisiana's creationism law, the Louisiana Science Education Act.[7]
Other prizes
In addition to the Nobel Prize, he has also been awarded the Oliver E. Buckley Prize by the American Physical Society in 1965, and the Zworykin Award by the National Academy of Engineering in 1974.[3] He is a member of the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters.[8]
Views on global warming
According to The Wall Street Journal, Giaever has described man-made global warming as a "new religion,"[9] with references to a report released by the U.S. Senate Environment and Public Works Committee (minority), led by Jim Inhofe, in March 2009.[10] The report states that Giaever has said "I am a skeptic… Global warming has become a new religion."[10][11]
In a featured story in Norway's largest newspaper, Aftenposten, 26 June 2011, Giaever stated, "It is amazing how stable temperature has been over the last 150 years."[12]
On 13 September 2011, though honored as a Fellow, Giaever resigned from the American Physical Society over its official position noting: "In the APS it is ok to discuss whether the mass of the proton changes over time and how a multi-universe behaves, but the evidence of global warming is incontrovertible?"[13]
As part of the 62nd Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting, Giaever referred to agreement with the evidence of climate change as a "religion" and commented on the significance of the apparent rise in temperature when he stated "What does it mean that the temperature has gone up 0.8 degrees? Probably nothing." Referring to the selection of evidence in his presentation, Giaever stated "I pick and choose when I give this talk just the way the previous speaker [Mario Molina] picked and chose when he gave his talk." Giaever concluded his presentation with a pronouncement: "Is climate change pseudoscience? If I'm going to answer the question, the answer is: absolutely."[14][15]

But the number is not important: only whether they are correct is important. We don't really know what the actual effect on the global temperature is. There are better ways to spend the money," he added.

Boy Scout Troop 31
Rochester, New York
Camp Pioneer is the traditional Boy Scout summer camp at Massawepie Scout Camps. Camp Pioneer features a superb staff providing merit badge and program opportunities. Younger Scouts will find plenty of advancement opportunities, including the TrailBlazer program for first year campers. Or use Massawepie as your base camp for a wide variety of canoe and backpacking treks throughout the 2.5 million acres of forever wild Adirondack Forest Preserve.
Camp Pioneer offers both patrol cooking and dining hall camping. The distinctive combination of a wilderness setting, friendly and experienced staff, state of the art facilities, and innovative programs makes Massawepie one of the crown jewels of Boy Scout camping.
You will not want to miss Massawepie's unique honor camper program, BarkEater.
BarkEaters who have earned the first, second, third or fourth level BarkEater recognitions will be eligible to earn the next appropriate level. Scouts and Scouters new to Massawepie this summer will be able to work on the first year BarkEater recognition:
A program that builds on itself through five summers at camp.
Special progressive recognition for each of the five summers.
Distinctive ceremonies, the likes of which have not been experienced in this region.
A greater understanding of Adirondack and Massawepie history and lore.
Elements that reinforce the aims and ideals of Scouting.
Join us this summer and be a part of the "Adventure of a Lifetime!"
Visit the Seneca Waterway Massawepie page to learn a lot more about Summer Camp: Click Here
For the past 60 years, Troop 31 has been an active participant of Massawepie BSA Camping, outside Tupper Lake in the Adirondack Mountains of New York. We are one the original troops who were present at Massawepie Camp opening and have been attending every year since. This is a tradition that we are very proud of and show by still flying and attending under the Original District Flag of the "Highlanders". This District was originally made up of the
nine troops that were organized and resided in the Highland Park area of Rochester, and had a Troop represent them each week that the Camp was open during the summer. Today Highlanders are only made up from two troops: Troop 31 and Troop 19. We carry the Highlanders banner with pride every year.
Camping at Massawepie is an excellent opportunity for younger and older scouts alike to have fun and to complete advancement opportunities. First Year Scouts are able to participate in the Trailblazer Program which vaults them on their way to achieving the Rank of Tenderfoot, Second Class and even complete some First Class rank requirements. All other scouts have the opportunity to work on and complete between three and five merit badges per week. Scouts 14 year of age and the Rank of Star are able to participate in a special program called "Mountain Fox." Mountain Fox is an off-base program for the Scouts to experience Rock Climbing, Challenge Hike, Whitewater Rafting, Overnight Camping, and Canoeing all within one week. Even older boys have the opportunity to plan and go on a week long Trek into the High Peaks of the Adirondack Mountains. Summer Camp funding is available to all scouts who have participated in the Tree Sale. If you are interested in Summer Camp, Please contact the Camping ASM at firstname.lastname@example.com. Forms will be posted in February for the upcoming Summer Merit Badge Program.

Famous Australian actor, a talented composer, musician. Songs Allen is known throughout the world. At the time the composer created the music for such notorious artists as Olivia Newton-John, Melissa Manchester and many others. Repeatedly Peter starred in the movie, every time a fan of showing off the talent of the actor.
Peter Allen was born 10 February 1944, the year in Tenterfield, Australia. Private Allen began his career with Chris bell as part of the project, the Allen Brothers. The musicians performed in cabaret, on television and in the early 60s was very popular in Australia.
After Allen went to Hong Kong, where his acting and musical talent was discovered by mark Herron. The latter invited the Australian to go to London, as well as in United States of America, in order there to continue the creative activity.
In the seventies Peter Allen experienced force in the acting field. A certain bet he made on his own projects, but a peak of popularity in this sense is not reached.
But his songs have become real hits (of world importance) is primarily due to the fact that he performed them well-known in the United States of America singers. Works such as "Don't Cry Out Loud", "I'd Rather Leave While I'm In Love", "I Honestly Love You" at the time, was especially popular among audiences. The last track, incidentally, was number one in all hit parades of America and Canada, and won two prestigious Grammy awards.
In 1977, the year of Peter Allen released a solo album "Taught By Experts". The album was popular and quickly disappeared from the shelves of Australian music stores.
In the United States of America equally rapid and rampant success of his solo career Peter was not achieved. His next album was released in 1980 year, and a year later, the song from the LP Fly Away took the 55th place in the hundred of the Best American songs.
At the same time – in the eighties – Peter Allen is actively developing a television career appearing regularly on the screens of Australian TV channels.

Successful projects announced under Building Better Regions Fund
Media Release
04 August 2017
- Building Better Regions Fund announces 110 successful projects across rural, regional and remote Australia from its main infrastructure stream
- The Coalition Government will invest $219.5 million in these projects, worth a total of $467.9 million
- Delivery of key 2016 election promise to rural, regional and remote Australia
Minister for Regional Development Fiona Nash today announced 110 rural, regional and remote projects had been successful under the infrastructure stream of Round One of the Building Better Regions Fund (BBRF).
"I aim to help build the kinds of regional communities our children and grandchildren either want to stay in or come back to, and providing infrastructure to rural, regional and remote Australia through the Building Better Regions Fund does just that," Minister Nash said.
"The Coalition Government will invest $219.5 million in 110 projects which are worth a total of $467.9 million including investment from applicants and other sources.
"That's 110 dreams which will become reality in rural, regional and remote Australia thanks to the Building Better Regions Fund.
"We're delivering all kinds of projects from a new track at Mt Panorama in Bathurst to a new reef and rainforest research centre in Cairns; affordable accommodation for aged people in Dwellingup in WA to a new permanent base for the LifeFlight helicopter base in Toowoomba.
"I congratulate these successful applicants, who were chosen from a field of 545 applications asking for almost $1 billion in Federal Government funding for projects worth a total of $2 billion.
"After a competitive merit-based selection process, there are always those who were not successful and are naturally disappointed. We have dedicated staff in the Department of Industry to give tailored feedback to each unsuccessful applicant to help improve those applications for next time. They can be contacted on email@example.com."
Minister Nash said she expected to open another round of BBRF before the end of the year.
A full list of successful Round One applicants for Infrastructure Projects Stream funding is available at: www.business.gov.au/bbrf.
Even more successful projects, from the Community Investments stream of the fund, will be announced soon.

Local kids between six months and five years old are now eligible for free flu jabs this year, Member for Murray, Austin Evans, announced today.
This $3.5 million influenza vaccination program follows last year's severe flu season, where much of the community was hit hard.
"So today's announcement means more than 400,000 children across the State are eligible to receive better protection not only for them, but also for their families and the wider community. We all know how horrendous the flu can be and this is especially hard on the smallest members of our families," Mr Evans said
Be aware that children who have never had a flu vaccination will need two doses, one month apart. This will cover four strains of influenza virus, two A strains and two B strains which are likely to be present this winter.
Minister for Health Brad Hazzard said NSW childhood vaccination rates had increased by 6.3 per cent since 2010, to 93.9 per cent in 2017.
"We already have some of the best childhood vaccination rates in the country and this free flu jab will go even further to protect our little ones from potentially deadly flu infections," Mr Hazzard said.
Last year, there were more than 12,000 confirmed cases of influenza in children under five - and many more who were likely not tested.

SCARSDALE, N.Y. -- With the holidays now upon us, the Scarsdale Police Department is reminding the public to be vigilant in safeguarding against criminals seeking to put a damper on the festivities.
In an effort to make the village a safe place to live, work and visit, the department is making the following recommendations to help prevent larcenies from automobiles and home burglaries during the season, according to Capt. Thomas J. Altizio.
• Be an observant neighbor. Immediately notify the police of any suspicious activity in your neighborhood.
• Make your home appear occupied. Leave lights and televisions on timers when you are out.
• Use motion-sensing exterior lighting and keep the perimeter of your home well-lit.
• Make your home more difficult to enter by increasing exterior security.
• Don't allow daily deliveries of mail, newspapers or fliers to build up while you are away.
• Arrange for the post office to hold your mail, or arrange for a friend or neighbor to collect it regularly.
• Always turn your alarm system on when you are away.
• Keep all exterior doors locked, using deadbolt locks. Keep your garage door closed and locked.
• Always lock your vehicle whether it is parked on the street or your driveway.
• Do not leave valuable possessions in view, especially electronics and GPS devices.
• Do not use social networking to alert people when you will be away. Such information may be used by criminals to target specific unattended homes.
• If your home is for sale, be cautious about using a "virtual tour" that displays the layout of your home and its contents on the internet.
• Consider the use of video surveillance on your property. Such systems can both deter criminal activity and provide valuable evidence for law enforcement.

There Are Calendars and Then There Are J&P Calendars
Most everyone uses a calendar in some way, shape or form. Some rely solely on the tiny digits on their watch faces, which are hard to read and not very exciting. Others rely on computer calendars, which give you the date with just a few keystrokes. Again, not very exciting, but it's state-of-the-art and just flat out works.
Then there's the old school calendar, the ones that feature exciting graphics, lots of color and a new look every month of the year. Truth is, a lot of us are still emotionally attached to the good ol' wall calendar, a useful and productive work of art that can hang proudly from … Continue Reading

… a baritone of smooth distinction…
--Allan Kozinn, New York Times
Charles Robert Stephens,
Charles Robert Stephens has enjoyed a career spanning a wide variety of roles and styles in opera and concert music. His performances have shown "a committed characterization and a voice of considerable beauty." (Opera News, 1995) At the New York City Opera he sang the role of Professor Friedrich Bhaer in the New York premiere of Adamo's Little Women, and was hailed by the New York Times as a "baritone of smooth distinction." Other New York City Opera roles since his debut as Marcello in 1995 include Frank in Die Tote Stadt, Sharpless in Madame Butterfly, and Germont in La Traviata. He has sung on numerous occasions at Carnegie Hall in a variety of roles with Opera Orchestra of New York, the Oratorio Society of New York, the Masterworks Chorus, and Musica Sacra.
In his twenty years in New York City Mr. Stephens has sung as guest soloist with most of New York's premiere ensembles including Sacred Music in a Sacred Space, Ascension Music, L'Opera Français de New York, Brooklyn Academy of Music's Next Wave Festival, the New York Collegium, the American Classical Orchestra, and many others. Now based in Seattle he has sung with Seattle Symphony, Tacoma and Spokane Symphonies and Opera Companies, Portland Chamber Orchestra and many other orchestras and opera companies in the Pacific Northwest. He joined the roster of Seattle Opera in 2010 for the premiere of Amelia by Daron Hagan.
Recent collaborations with early music expert Stephen Stubbs include the role of Haman in Handel's Esther with Pacific Musicworks as part of the Seattle Handel Festival, Messiah with Portland Baroque and the role of Tiresias in the Boston Early Music Festival's lavish production of Steffani's Niobe, Queen of Thebes. A long association with Maestro Gary Thor Wedow has recently led to two performances with the Seattle Symphony: Messiah and "Opera Festival."
On the international stage he has sung Rigoletto at Taipei's National Theater, Sharpless in Santo Domingo, Germont and Valentin (Faust) in Montevideo, Uruguay, and Montano, and (Otello) in Mexico City. Concert tours have taken him to France, Russia, and Canada.
In the United States Mr. Stephens has sung leading roles in operas by Verdi, Puccini, Donizetti and Rossini throughout the US with opera companies including the Minnesota Opera, Palm Beach Opera, New Jersey State Opera, Hawaii Opera, Arizona Opera, Birmingham Opera, Tacoma Opera, Mobile Opera, Opera Grand Rapids, Buffalo Opera, Boston Bel Canto, Tampa Opera, Connecticut Grand Opera, and Connecticut Opera.
Mr. Stephens has worked closely with composers in the preparation and performance of new works for the concert hall and the stage, taking part in many premieres at Lincoln Center and in other venues. For two seasons he was a guest artist as part of "Regina Resnik Presents", broadcast on CUNY television. He has sung as baritone soloist with such ensembles as the Maryland Handel Festival, the Hartford Symphony, Colorado Symphony, North Carolina Symphony, Helena Symphony, Walla Walla Symphony, the Princeton Symphony and the Symphony Orchestras of Montevideo, Uruguay and Mexico.
A native of New London, Connecticut, Mr. Stephens is the recipient of a Sullivan Grant and was a finalist in both the Washington International Competition and the Zachary Society Auditions. He is a Liederkranz Competition winner where he sang Scarpia, Silvio, and Don Giovanni. He received his training at the University of Connecticut, Boston University, the Goldovsky Opera Institute, and the Santa Fe Opera.

Having embraced recitation of the nembutsu as an exclusive practice, Honen developed his thought on the basis of this practice, expounding it in his major work the Senchaku hongan nembutsushu (or Senchakushu) written in 1198. The progress of Honen's thought during the intervening years may be traced through his major writings leading up to the Senchakushu. They are:
I. Commentaries on Genshin's Ojoyoshu (1145-1175)
II. Commentaries on the Jodosanbukyo
Sanbukyo tai-i (Commentary on the General Meaning of the Jodosanbukyo) [before 1186]
Sanbukyo-shaku (Commentaries on the Jodosanbukyo) [circa 1190]
The Todaiji Lectures
III.Gyakushu seppo (The "Pre-emptive Funeral" Sermons) [1194]
IV. Senchakushu (Passages on the Selection of the Nembutsu in the Original Vow ) [1198]
Notes on the Transmission and Dating of the Senchakushu
V. Other Essential Writings:
Ippyaku-shiju-gokajo mondo (One Hundred Forty-five Questions and Answers) [1201]
Shichikajo-kishomon (Seven Article Pledge)[1204]
Sanmai-hottokuki (Record of Attaining Samadhi)[1198-1206]
Ichimai-kishomon (The One Sheet Document ) [1212]
Isshi-koshosoku (Reply to a Disciple ) [after 1175]
Letters & Personal Writings
VI. Bibliographical and Philological Studies of Honen's Works

I so agree! Regular mail just makes me heart patter whereas emails kind of stress me out. Too much association with work I guess.

I'm a fan of paper...
and it is all tied into my love of letters.
Letters are instantly special, lovely and whimsical but sometimes they can be just plain fun.
I picked up a nib for my wedding envelopes and even though I know they weren't as perfect as the ones shown here, I love writing every single one, even after all the botched ones...

DB - you're right, there's something very 'work' like about electronic mail.
DB - get it!
DoC - I think that's part of the appeal to me too, I get so excited waiting for the lovely packages in the mail to arrive.
Alicia + Design Dish - I think we should start a movement to bring it back!
Mrs Miller - your invitations were just as beautiful as these, I've kept all your letters :)

I love receiving mail,real mail. It brightens my day every single time. Its the reason I send christmas cards and eventually I hope more and more people will send on back. I have 2 boxes with all my received letters, dating back to the birthday card I got for my second birthday. Its precious to be able to read your great grandmothers letters. I wish people would send more.
Have a great weekend!!

I wholeheartedly agree. I get excited when I come across something looking like a handwritten card and immediately open it with excitement, as it has become a rarity. I try to write notes as often as I can, but have noticed that my penmanship is suffering from the lack of practice.
Thank you for reminding me to do this more.
P.S. A note to some, please put your full name on the envelope. I have received thank you cards with signatures only, and not being able to read them I could not figure out who they came from. So I could not respond to their graciousness.

Here's a copy of my Spring and Fall Rose Tonic. It is a modification of a recipe passed to me by a very wise and 83-years young rosarian. It assumes your soil pH ranges from 6.5 to 7.5, clay-based and/or rich in calcium.
- 8 parts alfalfa meal
- 2 parts cottonseed meal (arsenic-free)
- 2 parts rock phosphate (or colloidal phosphate; but not super phosphate)
- 2 parts bone meal
- 1 part blood meal
- 1 part Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate)
Thoroughly combine ingredients and apply 1 cup (.24 l) of mixture for each foot (30 cm) of shrub height. Lightly scratch the mixture into the soil using caution not to harm the roots. Water-in thoroughly.
This mixture is good in the spring and the fall, and can be applied as a 'tonic' to all blooming perennials, roses, azaleas and fruit-producing trees and plants.
- If soil pH is above 7.5 (and it shouldn't be), reduce the Epsom salts by half to reduce the possibility of applying too much magnesium.
- For new plantings, add 1 part Greensand (0-1-5) to the Fall Tonic
- The NPK of the constituents varies by manufacturer; however, on average these proportions will create a 50-110-20 (or approx. 2-4-1 NPK ratio) slow-release, environment-safe fertilizer. It will not "burn" the foliage or contaminate the soil.
- Blood and bone meals may attract dogs and cats. If this is a problem, repel with pepper spray around the watering well.
- Feather meal may be substituted for alfalfa meal, but the quantities should be cut in half. Feather meal is also quicker to decompose and will not provide sustained nitrogen release beyond about 21 days. Furthermore, alfalfa has micronutrients not found in feather meal.
- Alfalfa meal is quite dusty; a dust mask should be worn when mixing the ingredients.
I apply this tonic immediately after spring and fall pruning (here, late Feb and late Aug). It is so effective, supplemental fertilizations are not required but once-a-month in the spring - until I let the roses rest during summer's heat. For supplemental fertilizations, I use a blend of fish emulsion, kelp liquid concentrate, and un-sulfured molasses @ 2 Tbsp, 1 Tbsp, and 1 Tbsp (30ml, 15ml, 15ml) respectively per gallon of water and pour this around the watering well of each rose.
It is best, if you have a lot of roses, to purchase the ingredients in bulk from the farm/ranch or feed store vis-à-vis the nursery or mailorder. For example, alfalfa meal at the feed store costs about $8 for 40 lbs. At the nursery, it costs $7 for 4 lbs. - and it's the same stuff, just packaged with a prettier label. Use caution when purchasing from a feed store, however, to ensure the alfalfa does not contain salt, as this will be detrimental to your soil. (Try a taste test.)
And if you grow roses in pots or sell them commercially, sprinkle 1 or 2 cups of mixture around the top of the pot. When you water the plants, the fertilizer acts like a timed-release mixture that can cost much, much more.
It should also be noted that some rosarians who live in cold climates report they have reduced aphid and thrips infestations if they withhold fertilizing until after first flush in the spring, thus letting the rose generate growth and blooms from the stored energy in the roots (e.g., like bulb perennials). This would not work for us who live in warmer climates because first flush may not end until May or June, when our temperatures quite regularly get above 95°F(35°C) and our roses like to rest during summer's heat.
I hope that helps a little. But remember, this is what works for me and my garden.

We received the Lily-Pink sneakers ($55) and they are AMAZING!!!Sophia was comfortable in them right away and I loved that I could see the true fit with the clear bottom! Genius!!! These shoes are not only providing healthy foot development but are super comfy too!!
|I received this product free for review but all opinions are 100% honest.
My favorite feature: The Heel Strap! I ordered up a 1/2 size because lets face it kids grow quick! I wanted to really get some wear time out of these shoes and they are doing just that!! I'm sure in the coming months we will be loosing the strap for more wear. This couldn't make this mamma any happier! We Love when companies think of it all!! They peeps over at KidOfit are committed to excellence!
We are Officially HUGE Fans of KidOFit and love the stress that the company puts into a quality shoe!!! Not a step is missed in the design and quality of the shoes they carry!
Here's what the peeps at KidOfit had to say:
About Us
KidOFit® shoes were created by Ron Bar, PhD in Biomedical Engineering who has been developing innovative foot-care products over 20 years. Before KidOFit®, Ron was the founder and president of Orthofeet, Inc., a leading company in the orthopedic shoe and foot orthotics business.After selling his part in Orthofeet, Ron's daughters - who have had difficulties finding well-fitted shoes for their kids - suggested that he should use his expertise in foot biomechanics and shoe design to develop high-quality shoes for kids. Ron took the challenge seriously, and created innovative shoes, which are designed to promote healthy foot development in infants and toddlers.
KidOFit's unique comfort features include:
- Barefoot SoleTM technology
- Transparent soles, which enable viewing the child's toes
- Customized Fit System
- Elastic Collar
- Heel Strap
- Fitting inserts
- Ergonomic Design
- Anatomical shape
- Smooth, protective interior
- Light and flexible construction
- Wide opening for easy on/off
Kids Foot HealthThere are 26 bones, 19 muscles, 107 ligaments plus an array of delicate blood vessels and nerves all working together to control the movement of each foot. The cartilage in a child's foot does not even become bone until foot is fully developed.
Information about movement comes from the nerves on the soles of our feet. The more we can feel the ground, the greater our body senses its surrounding and can better respond and adapt to it.
Medical experts worldwide agree that barefoot walking is not only the best thing for healthy foot development, but also for proper posture development. Dr. Wikler, a podiatrist specializing in children foot biomechanics claims that "children whose feet are healthy do not need a shoe for support; they need a shoe only for protection". Click Here to learn more.
Important Shoe FeaturesBarefoot might be best but it's not always practical, and therefore, children shoes should allow the foot to function as close to barefoot as possible. If your child walks very differently with shoes on compared to barefoot, then the shoes do not fit correctly and shouldn't be worn. When choosing your child's shoes, look out for the following features:
FlexibleFlexible shoes allow the foot and ankle to develop most naturally by enabling the foot to respond to changes in the walking environment. When choosing a shoe, you should be able to easily bend it to ensure that it adapts to the surface, and that it allows free foot movement. Inflexible, rigid shoes that restrict motion are potentially harmful to kids' foot development.
LightweightShoes should not be heavy or impede the child's movement in any way. Heavy shoes can lead to a lack of confidence tired legs, and improper posture.
With wide toe-boxesChildren's feet are not just a scaled down version of adult's feet. They have a triangular shape, which is wider at the toes, and children's shoes need to reflect this. Good toddler shoes require a correspondingly much bigger toe area than the shape of an adult shoe. Many manufacturers of children's shoes are simply scaled down versions of adult shoes. Shoes with wide toe boxes enable the child to wriggle their toes freely, and allow the toes to spread without constriction. Not only should the toe box be wide, but the opening to the shoe should also be wide enough to enable the foot to slip in easily, without having to squeeze the toes in any way.
Soft InteriorThe interior lining, which is the interface between the shoe and the foot, should be soft and smooth to avoid irritation. The best material for children's shoe lining is fabric, padded with foam, similar to the one in athletic shoes. It is recommended to put your hand inside the shoe, and check that the interior of the shoe is completely smooth.
Flat solesThe best soles are protective, while simulating barefoot conditions, meaning, flat and thin, without heels, arch supports or other "molding" features. Soling material should be slip-resistant, shock absorbing and flexible.
Shoe and Foot CareWhen you've chosen your child's shoes, follow these great tips for keeping them and your child's feet in tip top condition:
- Feet should be thoroughly washed and dried daily, especially between the toes.
- Toe nails should be kept short and straight.
- Tights should have a heel and toe feature, not be just a long tube over the foot.
- Ideally, children should have more than one pair of shoes and alternate between them.
- Shoes should be changed 3-4 times a year. This prevents feet from becoming too 'molded' to a particular shoe
- Feet should be measured regularly, particularly in the 1st 3 years of walking.
- Shoes should be cleaned according to the manufacturers' instructions.
- Shoes should be thoroughly aired after wearing them as sweat may cause dampness.

Civil Procedure - Default Judgments - Setting Aside
Mountain View Farms Ltd. v McQueen (Ont CA, 2014)
In this case the court re-stated the law on setting aside default judgments as follows:
[47] The court's ultimate task on a motion to set aside a default judgment is to determine whether the interests of justice favour granting the order. The approach to be taken to this determination has been considered numerous times by this court. The following draws heavily on the summary of the principles in those cases by Perell J. in Watkins v. Sosnowski, 2012 ONSC 3836 (CanLII), 2012 ONSC 3836, at paras. 19-20 and 23-24.

Biography – English
Andy Moon is a native of Nuremberg, Germany but now residing in Munich, Germany. Andy Moon is not just a DJ, producer and sound designer signed to EMI Music Publishing or other labels. The best way to described him as a performer, a shaman, a visionary, a creative thinkers, which is able "to think in sounds" and create something new from scratch based on individual sound parts, create something exciting. And not just in the studio, but also in his sets as a Performing Artist.
Andy comes with an arsenal of own sounds, loops and grooves in each of his sets a real world of sound and also makes use of specially in his studio edited versions of other electronic artists and DJs. The best way to describe his style with a Cross-mix of House, Tech House, Deep House and influences from ethnic music genres as well as classical, jazz, Latin American rhythms and his own imagination, all packaged together in a mix, or a song.
Especially important for Andy Moon's Sound are cheerful or deeper harmonies and groove but also particularly deep driving bass and groovy rhythms, deep melancholy sounds and all that is not played to fast at around 122-128 BpM. His sets, which usually go hand in hand with excessive length, make a journey into a world of sound, as one doesn't hear often from other DJ's of its genre. One thing is important for his sets – he does not jump on the train on, he overhaules the train on the parallel track. Each of his set is unique to each other and depending on the mood and place his Sets are suited to dark clubs, sunny daylight shows, large events or mediterranean beach sound.
This is also reflected in all his current releases of recent times. In the studio, Andy Moon comes up with a weapons arsenal of analogue and digital sound production, and state of the art equipment. He graduated with an Bachelor of Arts (Hons.) in Audio Production from the London Middlesex University and its emphasis is on sound design. In addition, Andy Moon has passed a Diplom as Audio Engineer and has learned various instruments over the years.
Andy started his musical career in 1992 and he played guitar in a heavy metal band and quickly he realized that it is rather boring play music with only a certain number to typical band instruments. Very fast he started to love electronic Music and become a DJ. Later Andy Moon was signed at the internationally renowned label Frankfurt Beat and from there he began the first part of his career. Andy toured as a DJ by half the world, and thus began his many years lasting musical orientation trip, which itself is not yet finished today. On his way he stopped at different labels such as Axis Red, VI-AI-PI, the Undercover Music Group, EMI Music Publishing and a few others. Ultimately, he has decided to publish his highly individual music on his own label Art Unnamed. However, it is not impossible Andy also offers music at currently trendy labels.
Being different from the others is his motto. Deviate from the norm, to create something of their own to commit Stylistic incongruity. All this draws Andy Moon from as an artist and producer. And because he don't want to fix his creativity into one or a few different styles until this day, he also produces rather unconventional very minimal remixes under his alias "Minimal Teardrop" or as Head of the Lounge and trance project "Cockpitcrew" signed with EMI Music Publishing. And because Andy understands himself as a producer, he also produces commercial music of other genres in collaboration with EMI Music Publishing. Stylistic incongruity precisely but nevertheless keeping his true style !
Although he has not yet attained the usual world-Star career, but that he does not have to, because he is no longer an unknown. So he has already voted by DJ Magazine and achieved rank 512 of the best DJ's in the world, he has played in renowned clubs and events all around the world. Also since 2011 he plays regular shows in Ibiza such as the Bora Bora, Punta Arabi, Tantra, Delano or Ocean Beat with the Global Radio Ibiza Showcase and also he can look back at references such as Nature One, Ruhr in Love, Street Parade or even the Berlin Loveparade with his own parade trucks or playing the at he major night events. In addition, include countless shows in clubs or events all over the world at his references, and on his list of renowned DJ's with which he could already play, to find the big names and Stars of the current and past time.

What does ESKOM mean?
- Eskom
- Eskom is a South African electricity public utility, established in 1923 as the Electricity Supply Commission by the government of South Africa in terms of the Electricity Act. It was founded by a parliamentary act, namely the Electricity Act of 1922, which allowed the Electricity Control Board to appoint Hendrik Johannes van der Bijl as the Chairman of the Board. The company was also known by its Afrikaans name Elektrisiteitsvoorsieningskommissie. The two acronyms were combined in 1986 and the company is now known as Eskom. Eskom represents South Africa in the Southern African Power Pool. The utility is the largest producer of electricity in Africa, is among the top seven utilities in the world in terms of generation capacity and among the top nine in terms of sales. Eskom operates a number of notable power stations, including Kendal Power Station, and Koeberg nuclear power station in the Cape Province, the only nuclear power plant in Africa. The company is divided into Generation, Transmission and Distribution divisions and together Eskom generates approximately 95% of electricity used in South Africa.

History of the College of Human Environmental Sciences
A department of household economics was founded at MU in 1900. At the time, it was housed within the College of Agriculture. The initial one-year program was designed for young women who wished to learn proper management of the home.
In 1906, the program expanded and a Bachelor of Science degree in Home Economics was added. The mission of the new program was to correlate work in art and physical, biological and social sciences with studies of home economics.
In 1924, construction began on Gwynn Hall, the college's first building. Home Economics became a school within the College of Agriculture in 1960. To mark further expansion of the program, Stanley Hall was built in 1961. In 1973, the program became an independent college.
The School of Social Work joined the college in 1988. Also in 1988, the name was changed from Home Economics to the College of Human Environmental Sciences (HES) to better reflect the mission of the college and focus of the disciplines. In addition to the School of Social Work, HES departments include: Architectural Studies; Human Development and Family Science; Nutritional Sciences (including Dietetics and Exercise Physiology); Personal Financial Planning; and Textile and Apparel Management. Programs are located across campus in Gywnn, Stanley, Gentry, McKee and Clark Halls, with the college administrative base housed in Gwynn Hall. The college also boasts a thriving extension component.
