Be Honest, What Did You Eat Today?
Oh, what I wouldn't do for a donut…. *cue Homer Simpson drool*
That's actually a picture of Krispy Kreme's whole wheat donuts, as if them being whole wheat makes them any better for you. Hey, it's whole grains, so it will only get a little less clogged in your arteries! Fuck outta here.
At the end of most days I try to just sort of mentally make note of what it is I ate throughout the day. I don't actually note it down, cause it's not like I'm a writer or anything. But I try to just see if I ate anything that was particularly bad for me, and nope, I can't say that I do. Today alone (mind you, it's almost 6pm), I've only eaten a bowl of Corn Flakes for breakfast with a cup of coffee, and I just had a grilled chicken salad that I made myself (thank you George Foreman). On an ordinary day I'd probably have eaten a piece of fruit or two by now, but since I woke up at something like 2pm cause I live such a care free life like that, obviously I've only had time for the two meals. I'll probably have some steamed vegetables, brown rice, and a buffalo burger (sans the bun) for dinner. That's if I even eat dinner, which for the past two weeks or so I haven't been doing so much of. I just haven't gotten around to cooking, so I eat another bowl of cereal and call it a day. Not the healthiest thing in the world, but what can ya do.
What's ill is how I see people- some of them friends of mine- who eat like Tony Soprano. Meaning, they eat dinner 5 times a day. It's like they have bottomless stomachs, they never get full. Turkey egg and cheese with hash browns or home fries for breakfast, with a snapple or coffee. Cookies for dessert. Chinese food for lunch. Some chips for a snack. Then a sandwich for another snack. Then pizza for dinner, washed down with a big 20 oz. Coke. And they do this every day. How? Well actually it's not that hard, I've done it myself at times. But eventually it catches up to you.
So as much as I say I'd love to have a donut, the reality is I walk past dunkin donuts and country donuts every day (they're both a block away from me), and I never get anything. Maybe a coffee at most, but even that's rare because I rather brew my own. I never thought it'd be so easy to turn down junk food, but it's amazing how I don't even think about it anymore. It's like once the sugar is out of your blood stream, the cravings are gone. I do think the more you take account of what you eat, like where you actually write it out and analyze how unhealthy it is, the more opportunity you have to see just what you should eliminate. So ask yourself, what have I eaten today?
Don't Lie, You Decided To Ignore My Fat Ass From 2 Blocks Away
One of the craziest things about losing weight is noticing the little nuances of how the outside world reacts to this new version of you. When I was about four weeks in on this diet, I'd dropped something like 25 pounds, and while the weight loss wasn't incredibly noticeable to people who didn't see me everyday, I was definitely more svelte and overall just a bit smaller and less imposing. I'd be on the train and out of the corner of my eye I'd notice someone staring at me. I might look back at them, and in the past they'd look away, but now their gaze remained steady, and we'd match eyes for a moment. It could be a girl or a guy, it didn't matter (pause!), it was more the principle of it. I'd walk into a store and instead of being greeted by any scowl from the person behind the counter (as in, "What the fuck do you want from me, fat boy?"), they'd now smile and be happy to deal with me. Even in my building where I live, I rarely had many conversations with other residents, but now I was noticing that everyone who passed me in the hallway had a word or two for me. Everyone wanted a moment of my time. Nothing crazy, but just being more friendly. I guess a red head fella weighing in at an imposing 250+ pounds doesn't look too friendly. A little thinner version of that guy does though.
The biggest change I noticed was when I was walking on the street. I admit it, I pretty much look at every one on the street. I'm an observer when I'm out in public. I watch people from distance, see how they move, how they're gliding down the street as they're walking in my direction, how their arms sway back and forth, the gate in their stride, and then I notice whether they lift or turn their face for that brief second where we can make eye contact. Before I lost this weight, very few people would look at me in that brief second. I chalked it up to being a New York thing, people are just too busy to pay attention to others. But not really. It's not that people don't pay attention, it's that I wasn't catching anyone's eye. Or at least not in a positive way.
And then I had to give it some thought. When I'm observing people, their could be 20 people on the street, and my eyes scan what's available to look at and I subconsciously just pick whatever it is that catches my attention, usually a hot chick, if there's one available. I wouldn't be a guy if I wasn't looking, bottom line. The fact that my eyes disregard everything else says a lot about the way my brain works, and I think it's the same for other people.
It's not that people weren't looking at me before. No. It's that they saw me from two blocks away, assessed me for what I was, and decided to disregard my fat ass!
It's all good, because like I said, I do the same, and when I was some big fat schlub I'd have ignored me too. From two blocks away I can see what's what and sort of make that decision in my own mind that I'm going to focus on the most eye-catching person in this throng of people walking around. If that happens to be some bad bitch, then that's just what it is. It doesn't always have to be that way, just saying.
I think we need to just get this whole idea out in the open though. Let's not pretend like we don't size people up via their looks in like two seconds, or as I'm pointing out, two blocks away minimum.
What do you think, does this idea hold any merit? And if you've lost weigh and reintroduced yourself to the world at some point, did you notice a difference in how many eyes now look at you as opposed to before? I know I do.
Say Goodbye To The Big Guy
One of my biggest pet peeves when I'm out in public is when someone calls me "Big Guy." Like, "Hey, Big Guy, what can I get you?" I think that's the most impolite shit someone could possibly say to another person. If I said that to a female, like "Hey, Big Girl, what can I get you?" There would be hell to pay. But guys get away with it for some reason, because there's this social more that has been passed down from generation to generation that made it cool to be a big guy. Think of the guy from the Brawny Paper Towels. At one time, people wanted to look like that guy! Or at least have their paper towels be strong like that.
But seriously, I'm not really sensitive about much in life, particularly the way people speak (have you ever heard the way I talk? I fucking curse more than Eddie Murphy), but when I walk into a health food restaurant I don't expect the guy behind the counter to call me Big Buy. I think that's in poor taste, particularly in a health food restaurant. The one I usually go to is down the block from me, called Healthy Grill, in St. George, Staten Island. It's like right up the steps from the Ferry on Stuyvesant. It actually opened recently, I want to say something like three months ago. But all in all, I think the language you use when you speak to customers is so important to making them feel welcome, feel good, and want to come back for more. Fuck the food. The food should be good, bottom line. If you make something decent, half the battle is won. Now win the other half, treat the customer right.
All in all, I hate being looked at as a Big Guy. I know the guy behind the counter can't help but call me that (at least for now he can't, while I'm still well, sort of a big guy), but soon he'll be singing a different tune, as I continue my drop in size. I no longer want to be looked at as a big dude, which I will elaborate more on in a post soon to come.
FAT SMASH DIET- 55 pounds lost in 12 weeks… have you seen the new Gooch yet?
You see what that says? 199 pounds mothafuckas!!!! I weighed myself at 254 lbs when I started the Fat Smash Diet on the morning of March 10th. Here I stand, in the middle of my 12th week on the diet, 55 pounds lighter. Up until a few weeks ago I was tracking my progress on the forums over at FatSmashForum.com, but since people stopped responding to my posts I just stopped writing. Plus I got in contact with Dr. Ian Smith's office directly (he's the creator of the diet), and that was satisfying enough. I just needed someone to hear about my success, and if you've seen me out lately or talked to me on the phone or via IM, you know I've been probably chatting your ear off about this weight loss and diet program.
Anyway, last week my treadmill broke and that was a real downer for me. I'm used to getting that runner's high now, and I really need to run 6 days a week for me to feel right. Plus I run twice a day. So not having the treadmill was going to be a big loss. Instead, I hit the stairs in my building, running the 6 flights twenty times consecutively. Additionally, at night I would walk from my apartment in St. George to my father's house in Graniteville, which is literally a 6 mile hike up Victory blvd. Then, on Sunday, I felt like I needed to get this runner's itch taken care of, so I just ran that 6 miles to my father's house. I woke up tired as shit the next day, but felt good. So I did it again yesterday, this time running from my apartment to Clove Road and back (beats waiting for the bus).
Anyway, it's like the middle of my 12th week, and because week #2 after the 9 day Detox period started on a Wednesday, I'm going to run this bad boy out until next Wednesday, so tomorrow is the official weigh in day. I just couldn't wait. Oh, I got the belt I needed to the treadmill, and I fixed it yesterday, so I hit the mill earlier today, and man did it feel good to have my baby back up and running.
I know I haven't written diddly squat in the past few months, and guess what, in that time I've actually seen Juno, go figure lol. Point was, I set a goal for myself at the beginning of this diet, told myself I would get down to my healthy BMI weight of 185 lbs. But since I was at 254 at the time, and quite honestly I feel like even that number was being conservative as I probably weighed even more than that, I knew just getting down below 200 lbs was a pipe dream. I'd started so many diets in the past and slacked off of everything, no discipline whatsoever. I didn't have high hopes for myself with this, but after losing something like 10 lbs in the first 9 days, I knew this diet and exercise regimen was for real and that I needed to stick with it.
I can't express the joy and happiness that I feel right now for being below 200 lbs. I don't think I have been less than 200 lbs since my senior year in Port Richmond High School, and if my memory serves me correctly I think I was even more than 200 pounds back then. I know at one point during my junior year, when I played varsity basketball, I had gotten a real bad case of the flu and dropped to about 175 pounds. But that summer from junior to senior year I gained a lot of weight and was over 200 lbs. Now I'm sure at some point I lost some of the weight and got below 200, but once I hit college I ballooned. I even got my college ID from CUNY CSI right next to me, which I got when I was 18 years old in September of 2000, and I'm looking at it and I look huge.
I remember this girl Tenisha, who I sort of had a thing for back in high school (she was a year older than me and thus graduated before I did), saw me some time in the early summer of 2001 (during my freshman year in college), and I remember the first words out of her mouth were, "Wow, you gained weight." Which I did. I'd become a fat fuck. Now I couldn't even beat it like I wanted to. Fuck!
Some time around late 2003, during my senior year in college, I hit the gym pretty hard for maybe two to three months and dropped from something like 225 or 230 to 214. That was the lowest point, and that was while taking Hydroxycut. Now after I left my house in spring of 2004, I wasn't able to go to the gym as much, plus my gym buddy Robert Manning went away to the army and he was a real inspiration to me because he'd lost something like 70 lbs. Now he was gone and hitting the gym was becoming inconvenient, and I was running up in record label offices all day and by night in the studio. So it got hard to keep up the cardio, but I didn't really gain any weight. That is, until the fall of 2004 came around, when Cue bounced to Florida and we got the rid of the studio and I became very sedentary. Plus I was eating fast food every day (Matt Fingaz and Roy Rogers is a bad combination), so I blew up like a balloon again. Probably gained 15 pounds back real quick. And my confidence sort of dropped, I stopped wanting to go out and be social as much as before.
I pretty much stayed that weight until August of 2006, when I started the late nights at Lifestyle Studio. Fucking Adam Santiago and his damn Dominos Pizza orders at 2am! Plus I was hitting the store off the Clove Road exit on the highway at like 4am, eating mad turkey sandwiches on bagels and breaded chicken fingers and all kinds of other dumb shit. When I went to LA in September of that year I took a few flicks and looked like a fucking stay puffed marshmallow man.
Which is when I decided to buy a treadmill. That was early December, 2006. Went to Sears with my pops, copped a Nordic Track for like 700 bucks. I started going hard on it in early January- after Elana had lost like 40 lbs in a college semester and was looking like a top model. I needed to step my game up. Hit the treadmill and was watching what I was eating for around three months, lost 13 pounds or so, and then I just started to get sick pretty regularly. I think it was that fucking Harris Publications office, so much dust in that place. Every three weeks I was coming down with some shit and it kept throwing my workout schedule off. Plus my back was hurting a lot, not knowing at the time that it was from my lack of stretching beforehand.
Then I moved to St. George, and worked out every now and again but didn't really watch what I ate. So I didn't lose much weight. Maybe 5 pounds total. This whole time I was floating somewhere around the 255-260 mark. I wasn't eating poorly per se, just not great. Too much white bread, too much ice cream, too much white rice, too much late night eating, portion sizes too big.
Around my birthday, February 3rd, I went out for a night on the town. A rare occasion if anyone knows how I get down these days. A day later my back was killing me. I couldn't even enjoy a day with my brother and father because I was in such poor health. Writing that god forsaken Sucker Free Blog for MTV and the Scratch blog for XXLmag.com had me sitting on my ass a good portion of the day. I'd become too sedentary, and again when I decided to work out I wasn't stretching. I recall missing a meeting at MTV, and considering that I never miss ANYTHING, I decided this was the last straw.
In 3 months time my back had gotten fucked up twice to the point where I was in bed for a week each turn. I couldn't take it anymore. I had to lose weight, and fast. I needed to reclaim the inner Gooch. The guy who used to run the basketball court non-stop guarding a team's best player, the dude who used to be able to dive for a loose ball and then get back down the court for a lay-up on the other end. I needed to be me again. No more excuses, no more telling myself it was the music business doing this. Nothing else should matter except this, getting in shape.
And so here I am. Back to a manageable weight, not looking like some big fat doofball (did anyone see that picture of my big fat ass and Grandmaster Flash from mid-November 2007? Oh god, shoot me), and on my quest down to 185 lbs. Considering that I lost something like 16 pounds in the month of May alone, I do believe I will be at 185 rather quickly. Perhaps by the first or second week in July. Who's the man?

It's been a busy spring at NATA! We just wrapped up our Aviation Business and Legislative Conference and are working hard to ensure the upcoming Air Charter Summit is an informative and exciting event. This year the Air Charter Summit is June 17-19 at the Marriott Dulles near Dulles International Airport. The on-demand air charter operators are a significant part of the NATA membership; and, due to their status as commercial air carriers, it seems there is always something new affecting them on the regulatory front. The daily impact Washington has on these businesses is precisely why the Air Charter Summit is one of NATA's most popular annual events. As you read this edition of the Aviation Business Journal, you'll learn about the issues critical to our air charter members and the initiatives NATA is pursuing to address the needs of this segment of our membership.
Ask most air charter operators about their biggest concerns and the impact of the IRS' actions to collect commercial transportation excise taxes on amounts paid by aircraft owners for management services is bound to come up. Over the last few months, NATA staff has led a strong effort to help IRS officials better understand the complexities and differences with respect to aircraft management practices and how the term "possession, command and control" actually applies when an aircraft owner uses contract management services. I want to thank and recognize Marian Epps with Epps Aviation and Nel Stubbs with Conklin & deDecker for their invaluable participation in this effort. We've made significant progress over the last few weeks and believe IRS officials recognize the need for clear and precise guidance with respect to how commercial taxes apply in this area. We will continue to collaborate with the IRS toward creating new guidance that will address our industry's concerns. While the publication of new guidance is a critical need, the on-going audit efforts by the IRS to collect these taxes retroactively are also an immediate concern for many operators. Our staff is asking IRS officials not to collect these taxes retroactively because of the need for clarity in the guidelines. We are also requesting the agency stay or delay audits where aircraft management costs are at issue, until such time that new guidance is developed. We will give a comprehensive update on this issue at the Air Charter Summit.
Finally, as we approach Memorial Day our thoughts rightly focus on the sacrifices made by the members our military forces. Given the unique aspects of NATA members' businesses, they are in a position to offer aid and support to those who have sacrificed so much in support of our freedoms. At the 2013 Air Charter Summit, and throughout the year, NATA is continuing its support of the Veteran's Airlift Command (VAC). This incredible organization coordinates free travel on private aircraft for our wounded warriors. To make a donation, visit http://www.nata.aero and follow the VAC link on our homepage. Also, as we did last year, NATA is sponsoring a charity raffle at the Air Charter Summit to support the VAC. I hope that all Air Charter Summit attendees will participate to support this very special program. See you there!

I remember the first time I went to the optometrist. I was in fourth grade, having trouble seeing the board in class. I completely dreaded the doctor visit because- let's be honest here- I was enough of a dork already, being in GT and sporting frizzy bangs. And this was waaay before either glasses or bangs were cool.
So after some ugly-crying on my part and some bribing-with-cheesecake on my mom's part, I picked out some gold rimmed round frames. (I have no idea why I picked these frames. Maybe it's because I was really into Harry Potter that year? Regardless, not cute.)
Let's just say that as soon as I got the ok to switch to contacts, it was done. I've always had glasses for days when my allergies are bad or for evenings but until recently they were never my first choice for regular day wear.
Enter Firmoo.
They have all kinds of frames- from super fun and trendy to classic. They are ridiculously affordable, enough so that you could multiple pairs of glasses to fit the occasion or your mood!
PLUS the first pair you order is free!
I grabbed some of these fun hipster glasses.
And I actually reeeeally like them. In fact, a friend and I compared my free pair to his designer pair of a very similar style, and mine look and feel like a better quality. I love the shape, the clarity of the lenses, and the sturdiness of the structure. The only negative thing I would have to say about them is that there isn't a nose grip, so when I look down the glasses slip down my nose.
So, if you're looking for a new style of specs
or a back up pair to keep in your bag
or want to transition away from contacts,
go check out Firmoo.
You can even upload a photo and see what the shapes and styles look like on you!
hipster glasses for the win.

ISE 2015 - Acoustic Fire Hoods for New Evolution i-Series Invisible Loudspeakers
In the build up to the Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) exhibition in Amsterdam, Invisible loudspeaker experts Amina Technologies Ltd would like to remind AV professionals that as well as launching an all new speaker range and high performance subwoofer, they will be displaying their range of acoustic fire hoods that compliment their speakers and installation back boxes.
In the build up to the Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) exhibition in Amsterdam, Invisible loudspeaker experts Amina Technologies Ltd would like to remind AV professionals that as well as launching an all new speaker range and high performance subwoofer, they will be displaying their range of acoustic fire hoods that compliment their speakers and installation back boxes.
Made specifically to Amina's specification by UK based fire hood specialist, Hoody™, three models are available: Firehood200, Firehood300 and Firehood345. The numerals refer to the compatible speaker/back box size and Amina recommend that installers use a fire hood in conjunction with their BackboxCV acoustic back box to improve on the 21dB sound isolation in wall and ceiling cavities that the BackboxCV alone provides.
Amina's acoustic fire hoods are designed to provide 60 minute fire protection and are tested to BS EN 1363-1. They also comply with UK building regulations Document B (Fire Safety) and Document E (Resistance to the Passage of Sound).
The company are keen to point out that installing their fire hoods is extremely easy, being one additional stage in their standard plasterboard BackboxCV/speaker installation procedure. To help further, along with the usual printed installation instructions there is also an instruction video available on their YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/aminatech). Also featured on the channel are a selection of product installation guides and explanations on the company's unique vibrating panel loudspeaker technology.
Amina are delighted to be able to provide installers a complete installation solution for projects requiring fire protection and sound reduction to meet building regulations.
ISE runs from the 10th -12th February and Amina will be exhibiting on stand P19 in Hall 1.
Corporate Background:
Amina Technologies Ltd design and manufacture in the UK specialist invisible loudspeaker solutions for high end commercial and residential premises.
Amina have developed a new loudspeaker technology that completely disappears in application. Quite literally the product is set into walls and ceilings, plastered over and decorated to become completely invisible. It needs no maintenance.
Invisibility and improved acoustic coverage are only made possible because Amina have gone back to first principles in how sound is made. The loudspeakers do not use the conventional piston operation of a cone shaped diaphragm; instead Amina returned to the traditional musical instrument approach characterized by the violin and acoustic guitar and created electrically driven vibrational sound boards. Using this UK developed technology, Amina therefore create powerful loudspeakers that are super thin, lightweight, fast to install, highly effective in creating a powerful musical experience and ultimately completely invisible once installed.
The product and the technology is continually developing and Amina choose to design and manufacture in the UK allowing new product developments to be brought swiftly to market. Quality and consistency of the finished product is absolutely key to the success of the invisible loudspeaker families and the product is designed to last for many years. Additionally Amina work with local suppliers, where possible, for piece parts, which creates a partnership approach to developing new and improving existing products in a timely manner.

text: EDIT BY MOD- for those that are just joining our show in progress- As he has explained in earlier threads, Jeff only has the use of one hand due to a stroke. Pay attention! Sorry, Jeff- please continue. C3 Hey guys, As some of you might know from my old threads about using only one hand i had another question that maybe you all could help me out with. I have revolvers and they are great guns but i would like to get into the sliding pistols as well just to be able to use more types of pistols but i cant think of a way that i could cock them only using one hand while still being safe while at the range. I tried to cock my brothers with one hand but it was to tough to get the slide all the way back. So if you all have any ideas that would be great!! Thanks, Jeff

With snow and lighting issues seriously curtailing their practice time in the week leading up to this game, Park had concerns about their preparation but quickly returned to the form that saw them finish with an undefeated Fall record.
The turf field made for an exciting and furiously paced game from the opening whistle and Park looked ever dangerous when counter-attack opportunities presented themselves. Welcoming back Brady from injury, Park featured a new centre partnership with Bean moving further out from 9 to 13 and debutant Griffin proving a formidable force at inside-centre.
In the pack, there was a more familiar look with the exception of Perrizo stepping up from his more usual D3 role to put in a steady shift at blindside flanker. On the open-side, Schwartz finally looked to be back to full fitness, proving a menace to any Barbarian attack.
It was on the offensive side of the ball, that Schwartz made his first mark. A weakside break from Togher supported by Barrett and Bean put Park's 7 free down the right sideline for the opening score.
Park doubled their score after 26 minutes following a Carroll break. The fullback, who was a constant threat all game, fed Prengeman and the winger cut inside before feeding the supporting Boroski, who despite a brief juggling act raced through for the try.
Before halftime, Park scored again. This time, it was Marples eating up the ground with a long striding break down the middle.
The Barbarians changed up their plan of attack early in the second half, resorting to a pick and drive to try to draw in Park's defence, before looking to get supporting runners once they hit open space. This initially worked with two tries early in the half pulling them back to within 7 points.
At this stage, Park could easily have retreated into a defensive mode and lost their early confidence but to their credit, they regained their composure and midway through the half scored two quick tries to put the game away.
First Brady, reacting to an over-aggressive Barbarian defensive line, found a gap at the edge of a ruck to run untouched under the posts. Then Marples proving his earlier burst of speed was no fluke, sprinted through a second time to complete the scoring.
Team: Boghani (Waryjas), Boroski, Bitar (Digan), Hodges, Marples, Perrizo (McDowell), Schwartz, Togher, Brady (Langley), Barrett, Prengeman, Griffin, Bean (Harvey), Langley (Turner), Carroll (Ehlert)
Try: Marples 2, Schwartz 1, Boroski 1, Brady 1
Con, Bean 3, Barrett 1

Elegushi in Lagos said that the company had injected N2 million in procuring safety equipments, adding that the life of the people was paramount to the company.
He said that it had become imperative to equip the beach with necessary safety facilities that would make the environment very safe for fun seekers.
"Prevention is better than cure, they say.
"Life is good when one is still alive. Therefore, there is need to provide every necessary precaution to protect lives, " Elegushi said.
He said that the management had made adequate preparations to receive visitors during the festive period.
"Some of the equipments bought are first aid equipment, life jackets, trained swimmers, caution signs and others.
Elegushi said that more than 1,700 picnickers visited the beach during the Independence Day celebration on Oct. 1.
"No life was lost on that day and no casualty was recorded.
"Management has maintained an international standard of operation in order to make the beach one of the best relaxation centres in Africa,'' he said.
Elegushi said that the management had also been complying with the instruction of the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) in ensuring safety at the beach.
The management of the beach spent about N20 million in August to equip the beach with necessary facilities to make it a more attractive centre and one of the best in the world.

A true innovator and leader in avant-garde jazz, saxophonist John Zorn will be playing as part of the TD Canada Trust Toronto Downtown Jazz Festival on Wednesday, June 28, 2006 at The Music Hall, 147 Danforth Avenue, Toronto, at 7pm.
Drawing inspiration from an eclectic range of sources and using unconventional sounds, Zorn has been breaking, transforming and reshaping the boundaries of jazz for over three decades. Writing and performing music of astonishing breadth, Zorn has explored the gamut of musical interests including everything from film music to free jazz to hard-core thrash to Yiddish folk music and back.
After a lengthy absence from Toronto, Zorn makes a triumphant return with his group, John Zorn's Acoustic Masada. Based on the idea of creating a new radical Jewish sound that would be relevant today, Zorn merged traditional Jewish scales with the sound of Ornette Coleman to create Masada. Joining Zorn will be Dave Douglas on trumpet, Greg Cohen on drums and Joey Baron on drums. The TD Canada Trust Toronto Downtown Jazz Festival will be cookin' for 10 days this summer when it takes over the city from June 23 - July 2, 2006. Bringing all that jazz for the past two decades, the festival is celebrating its twentieth anniversary with more than 1500 musicians performing over 350 concerts at more than 40 locations across the city.

Reeboks are a British brand of athletic footwear. It was founded in 1895. The name was found in a dictionary and won in a race by the found Joe Foster as a boy. It traces its origins to a spiked running shoe created in the 1800's. J.W. Fosters shoe was so popular that he created a company. By 1979 Reeboks were officially introduced to the United States. It grew in popularity with the Freestyle Athletic shoe designed for aerobics. The founder of Reebok is Joseph William Foster. The original name of the company was Mercury Sports. Reebok was purchased by Adidas in 2005. The official sponsor is the National Football League. The brand has been worn by famous runner like Harold Abram and Eric Liddell in the 1924 Olympics. They are the official shoe supplier for the NFL and Major League Baseball. The company also endorses individual athletes including Allen Iverson.
One of the most famous shoes was the Reebok pump. The shoes were introduced in the late 80's and included an air bladder that could be pumped up with air for a snugger fit. They became a fashion statement in the early 90's. Reebok signed Yao Ming in 2003. It was the first time they had won an endorsement battle against Nike. Reebok almost signed Lebron James to a $75 million contract until Nike got him for $90 million! Reebok spent $25 million promoting the Dan vs. Dave decathlon battle. Reebok signed Allen Iverson to a lifetime contract in 2001. He gets $7 million a year! Reebok distributed charm bracelets with children's shoes that were laced with lead! Now they have to pay $1 million dollar fine.
Now Reebok is trying to strive ahead of the competition again with a running shoe that will let you work out while just wearing it. The easy tone shoe will work your legs without that trek to the gym. Reebok is in actuality a subsidiary of Adidas. The name actually comes from the Afrikaans spelling of Reebok a type of African antelope or gazelle. The company began in the United Kingdom. Reebok is also branching out into board games shoes! It is inspired by the Monopoly game and will feature dice, tokens chance and community chest cards, houses and hotels etc. There will be detail on the laces, lace lock, prints, colours and overall design element.

In politics, it's almost always helpful when expectations are lower than the belly of a snake.
Witness today's jobless numbers: the U.S. added 117,000 jobs last month, more than economists were expecting, and that pushed the unemployment rate down slightly to 9.1 percent of the labor force.
The White House spun the news positively, while trying to avoiding gloating. The Republicans said, essentially, that things still stink and it's Obama's fault.
"While the better than expected report is welcome news, the unemployment rate remains unacceptably high and faster growth is needed to replace the jobs lost in the downturn," Austan Goolsbee, chairman of the president's Council of Economic Advisers, said in a statement. "Bipartisan action is needed to help the private sector and the economy grow – such as measures to extend both the payroll tax cut and unemployment insurance, as well as passing the pending free trade agreements with re-employment assistance for displaced workers, the patent reform bill, and a bipartisan infrastructure bill to help put Americans back to work."
Good luck getting all that through Congress, Austan. Here's his whole statement.
Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said, "Rather than focusing like a laser on growing a strong and healthy American economy, President Obama is punishing job creators at every turn and devoting his attention to saving his own job."
Despite the good jobs number, recent reports have shown a drop in consumer spending, weak economic growth and a decline in manufacturing output.
Meanwhile, some on the left are arguing that the GOP is pursuing its austerity agenda to make it impossible for President Obama to do much about the jobs problem, thus increasing chances he will be defeated.

Amur Leopard only #35 remaining by memucoWatch
©2012-2017 memuco
The Amur Leopard is one of the species of leopards in the world. It lives in Far East Russia. extinct in China and Korea, victim of poaching for fur and traditional medicine. sad but true
feel free to share this repost re-blog, put it on facebook. just don't change anything.
feel free to share this repost re-blog, put it on facebook. just don't change anything.
Good news!! A survey was done, and the wild population is now almost 70!!
Your awesome dude keep it up and spread the animal love
the 146 captive specimens need to enter the rewilding program immediately.
Extinct in Korea... It's not hard to see why. >_>
only 35?
Give or take, that is the estimate. But they just took some picture of Amur Leopards in China. That is good news. The biggest problem will be DNA if they recover. (
estimated to be, could be less, could be more
I am indeed inspired by your work and I can not thank you enough for doing this. Spreading the awareness is really good. Maybe you should add a link to the World Wildlife Fund's homepage so people can donate money to save the Amur leopard. Its important to save the remaining of these beautiful creatures.
Hi! and I are making a video about the endangered cheetah and amur leopard for the groups #the-cheetah-archive and #Save-theAmur-Leopard. I was wondering if we could use your art in the video. You would be credited in the video by your deviantart name, if that is ok with you.
Too small of a population for any kind of long-term survival, I'm afraid. The only chance to preserve its genes may be crossing it back into other leopard populations at this point. :S
Very true, the problem here is the genetic material, if there are Amur leopards in captive somewhere around the world thy should go get them and start a captive breeding program. otherwise yes it hard to see a long term survival. But if the White Rhino and the Arabia Oryx could do it. these guys can. The other problem is human encroachment of their lands.
thnak you for your comment
thnak you for your comment
there are captive amur leopards (but many have been crossed with other leopard subspecies) in zoos as well as rather succesfull captive program
In the United Arab Emirates they have a center where they have captive Arabian Leopards also critically endangered but thos ar enot mixed as far as I know. The other thing is their prey they need more of it too.
Thanks for the note.
Thanks for the note.
Its a very good poster, really sad but a good sign to make people aware!
Thank you. It takes a lot of hard work but it's worth it. Animals can;t do it and greedy people are just too dumb to realize what they are doing or they just don't care.
thank you so much again for your work
my pleasure thank you for enjoying it and spreading the word and for your notes here
DEFINITELY putting this on my blog D:
I hear you. I volunteer with you on that one
yeah, I know about it, I even supported the campaign which tries to rescue them
it's all very, very terrible; how cruel monster it's needed to be to kill a poor creature just for such vain needs ;/ I'd personally skin all hunters

ICCX Middle East 2017 - Location & Accommodation
The first-established trade exhibition centre in the United Arab Emirates, Expo Centre Sharjah became a booming centre for international trade already in 1977. Over the years, it became on of the most popular trade exhibition venues and home to several of the Gulf's best-attended trade shows. The Expo Centre Sharjah, within 10 minutes driving distance from Dubai International Airport (DXB), is located perfectly to serve, by arterial highways, all important countries in The Middle East; from Turkey in the North down to Oman and Yemen in the South.
On September 16, 2002, His Highness Dr Sheikh Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qassimi, Member of the Supreme Council and Ruler of Sharjah, inaugurated the state-of-the-art Expo Centre Sharjah facility. The new world-class exhibition and meeting complex is a spectacular tribute to the growing importance of the UAE as the commercial hub of the Middle East. As one of the region's prime meetings destination, the centre offers a perfect combination of sophisticated technical facilities and professional services across a broad spectrum of events.

Single room: AED 1088 - incl. breakfast and internet (AED 890 subject to 20% Taxes, and 20.00 Toursim fee per room per night)
Unauthorized Partners of ad-media GmbH / CPI Concrete Plant International / ICCX events
For several years, different companies selling hotel rooms have been actively soliciting companies who participate at ICCX trade shows all over the world. These companies typically make it appear they have received your information from ICCX organizers and that there is a connection between the offer of their hotel rooms and ICCX. In their information, they may imply that companies might be under pressure to either process or reconfirm their existing hotel room booking in the conference hotel. They ask for credit card data.
Please note that this is scam!
Sadly, it appeared several times that they confirmed reservations, charged the credit cards and then cancelled the reservations without further notice very shortly before the event. These companies are not affiliated with ad-media/CPI/ICCX and the hotel room reservation they are attempting to sell you is not legitimate. Please refer to the accomodation information that is provided on our website to make a safe and valid hotel room reservation, only.

"We have underscored to the USTR and the team the need to now further deepen and diversify the economic relationship and that should be the objective flowing out of the forthcoming visit of President Obama to India," Commerce and Industry Minister Anand Sharma said.
At the end of the joint statement US Trade Representative Ron Kirk and Mr Sharma asked their officials to redouble their efforts towards addressing unresolved issues in an expeditious manner.
"Recognising that more can and should be done to strengthen our bilateral trade and investment relationship, particularly in the coming weeks before President Obama"s visit to India, to take concrete steps towards resolving several issues of concern and to keep senior officials regularly informed of the results of those efforts," the joint statement said.
"We firmly believe that this session of the TPF has moved our relationship in the direction of realising those benefits, and look forward to continued cooperation to this end in the coming year," they said.

UNDER ORDINARY circumstances, I avoid pirates. If I'm at a bar when a bunch of them show up, I'm probably going to leave that bar, same as I would if any other roving band of costumed drunks showed up. (Do people in other cities have exit strategies for these sorts of situations? Probably not, huh.)
There were pirates at opening night of Portland Opera's The Pirates of Penzance, though, and I was thrilled to see giant hats and eye patches peppering the crowd of otherwise fancily dressed old people. The presence of cosplayers at the opera is an indication of the lingering popular appeal of Gilbert and Sullivan's work.
Many of their comic operas were written to satirize the English class system of the late 1800s, and have come themselves to be fondly lampooned in pop culture for their ubiquity as a community-theater staple. Which means that if you haven't seen a Gilbert and Sullivan show personally, you've probably at least seen Bart Simpson trick Sideshow Bob into singing the entire score from the HMS Pinafore. ("Very well, Bart. I shall send you to heaven before I send you to hell.")
Portland Opera's Pirates runs under the direction of Oregon Shakespeare Festival Director Bill Rauch, who originated the show in Ashland in 2011. It's a physical, funny production, with a few moments of genuine theater magic-making (spoiler: puppets are involved).
For the most part, the show is spoken and sung in entirely coherent English—but the supertitles come in handy when visiting soprano Talise Trevigne is showing off her formidable voice. And while it has in no way been contemporized, an effort has been made to incorporate musical riffs in different styles—gospel riffs, for example, come courtesy of Shalanda Sims, an acting and music teacher at Jefferson High School who's making her Portland Opera debut. It's a fun, lively show, at once faithful to its source material and brimming with clever, creative flourishes. You probably want to take off the eye patch, though.

Poetic Tongues/Fabu
Uncovering African American
Contributions to Science
One of the great challenges of the times we live in is to determine what is true and then
live that truth for yourself. Take the movie, Hidden Figures, for example. I went to see it
twice and at the ending, both times the audience clapped loudly. This is one of the few
movies, out of Hollywood, that is based on historical fact, features African American
women and is uplifting and entertaining. If you want to get an immediate dose of
inspiration, go and watch Hidden Figures, the incredible untold story of Katherine G.
Johnson (played by actress Taraji P. Henson), Dorothy Vaughan (played by actress
Octavia Spencer) and Mary Jackson (played my actress/singer Janelle Monáe) —
brilliant African-American women working at the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA), who served as the brains behind one of the greatest operations
in history: the launch of astronaut John Glenn into orbit. This stunning achievement did
much to restore the nation's confidence in the space program, turned around the space
race to the moon in America's favor, and impressed the world with America's
achievement in outer space. All of this happened in 1968 when most Black people were
still being denied equal rights and justice.
1968 could be considered the height of the Civil Rights Movement towards equality for African Americans, especially after the assassination of
the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., which galvanized the nation being fair in its treatment of African Americans. I was alive in 1968, so I
can remembered the hatred in people's eyes even when they looked at a little African American child. What would it have meant to all of us
alive at that time to know that Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan and Mary Jackson were responsible for taking the United States to the moon
and back! How much it would have inspired little girls back then to know that there were Black women scientists, mathematicians and
computer experts. Talk about living Black History, this is exactly what historian Dr. Carter G. Woodson wanted revealed about the contributions
of African Americans in the United States. Instead, it was a kept secret known only to a few.
2017 is the year that these women's story was fully unfolded on the big screen, which, in turn, will cause their story to be known around the
world. I've said it before and I'll say it again — when it comes to bad news about African Americans, we get it quickly, persistently and repeated
over and over again. Good news, well that takes too long to reach us. I am happy that one of the three women, Katherine Johnson, is still alive
to be thanked. The movie, Hidden Figures, left me wondering what other stories of valiant African Americans and their contributions have yet to
be told.
I haven't gone to the movies to see, Moonlight, which won best picture at the Academy Awards. This movie, I've read, is a fictionalized account
of an African American boy growing into manhood. I do realize that by honoring Katherine Johnson, many people mistakenly thought the movie,
Hidden Figures, had received an award. Neither Hidden Figures nor Fences with the great Denzel Washington, based on August Wilson's play,
won anything from the Academy.
That my friends, is a great travesty of justice and shortsighted about what best serves to inspire African American people. The women in Hidden
Figures were real. The characters in Fences were first in a play, then a movie. The truth is that both of them deserved to be recognized and
honored too. For little girls everywhere, Hidden Figures gives them a glimpse into the uncharted academic waters that these three African
American women in 1968 successfully navigated.

RIVERSIDE ---- The county Planning Commission on Wednesday will meet once again to review a plan for a Wine Country cemetery expansion proposed by the Temecula Public Cemetery District.
The hearing is scheduled for 9 a.m. at the county's administrative center, 4080 Lemon St., Riverside.
The district has been working on an expansion because, officials say, space is dwindling at its cemetery on C Street in Temecula.
The commission held a meeting on the plan in early October, but delayed a decision in part because of opposition from some Wine Country residents.
The commission also wanted to give the district more time to explain the plan to residents. That led to an "open house" at the site, 52 acres near Buck Road and Camino del Vino, earlier in November. The district purchased the land earlier this year for $2 million.
Opponents say the cemetery could sink area property values and mar views.
Those in favor have said they like the idea of a cemetery there compared to the alternative: a winery bringing noise and traffic, or another bothersome use.

Ideas To Help You Slim Down The Proper Way
To increase your state of health and lifespan, you need to be in the recommend weight limits to your body's build. There are a variety of locations where can give you the right information to help you achieve the goals you might have looking for yourself. From the article below, you can find great ideas to help you shed weight and get healthy.
You don't must do traditional exercise if you wish to slim down. Exercise needs to be fun, as which can help increase the quantity of motivation to be active. A better option is to exercise without thinking about it simply by making the action enjoyable. By doing something fun, you are going to look ahead to your workout as an alternative to dreading it.
It really is still easy to stay true to your diet plan when at the office or family parties. Start with selecting fruit and veggies prior to almost every other fatty snacks. This will help you to enjoy all of the fun without compromising your daily diet regimen. There is no need to make a challenge of the diet, just go with your modified plan and appreciate.
Eat more slowly. This makes you feel full quicker. It can take a little bit while for the body to permit the brain given that hunger is satiated. Set your utensils down between bites to enable you to really savor your food consumption. Eventually, you will feel full.
When you are trying to get healthier, stay away from the favorite fad diets. Fad or extreme diets often work by limiting certain nutritional factors in what you eat and that can be unhealthy. You will find a lot of fad diet plans within the weight reduction industry that pop up quickly then fade away every bit as fast. These diets goes away rather than help you to be healthy.
Try to eradicate one pound every 7 days. Any greater than a pound per week is way too fast. Your state of health may be effected by quickly slimming down. Also, you're more likely to gain that weight back.
Don't eat right before sleep. Calories from food or drinks that you ingest prior to going to sleep through the night will not be burned off through your body in the same way as they are when you are awake and active. Instead, these calories will be stored as fat in your sleep time. You should have dinner a couple of hours before bedtime.
While you are dieting, you will probably find yourself eating out in a restaurant. Do not forget that restaurants often serve overly-large portions. Request a take-home box and split the meal in two. This assists control how much you take in. This can aid you to reduce the quantity you consume and also gives you dinner for that following day.
Go on a before photo plus an after photo of yourself to document your progress. This can help you receive perspective about your progress even if the scale says you haven't lost any weight. And also this will give you a simple approach to demonstrate your progress to relatives and friends.
Exercise is not negotiable while you are attempting to lose weight. It really is beneficial to reserve time every single day in order that you are focused on exercising. Make sure to keep track of your exercise schedule so you don't plan whatever would get into its way.
Charting your progress can be an effective way to monitor your excess fat loss across a long time. Frequent weigh-ins should occur so that you can be mentally prodded why you will be working so difficult toward your goals. This may encourage you to keep working toward your main goal.
If you being a new fat loss program, you must monitor your progress. Jump on the scale regularly so you are aware how you're doing and the way much you might have left to accomplish. Seeing results will keep you motivated in reaching your goals quickly and efficiently.
When you're dieting, try eating plenty of sensible food. Many people give attention to low-calorie items and never get an ample amount of what they desire using their food. You could possibly lose weight doing this, yet your health will be affected in the long run.
Decrease your sodium intake in the daytime. When you reduce salt, you are going to actually taste the natural flavor in food, and this could also reduce any junk food cravings that you might have. Additionally, salt makes the body retain excess fluid, so avoid such things as fast food.
Salty, fatty foods have reached many eating places, but a majority of chefs and restaurants can fulfill your requests for healthier options if they're approximately the same price. Ask to substitute steamed vegetables, a salad or rice pilaf as opposed to a high calorie baked potato or some other fatty side dish.
People can expect to shed a lot more weight in case they have a buddy that may shed weight with you. Work out with the partner, encourage and support each other, and share the celebration when you acquire a goal. Having to solution to another person will make it not as likely that you just will slack off.
If you are dieting, yet don't want to get hungry in the center fo the morning, possess a breakfast that is stuffed with protein as an alternative to eating bagels and toast. Protein keeps you feeling full for a longer period of time, which means you will work less snacking.
Smaller dishes are an excellent component to add in your fat burning plan. It is natural to fill a plate or bowl, but within the last few decades, dish sizes have risen with serving sizes, rendering it harder to "eyeball" the right amount of food you ought to have. By making use of smaller plates, you are tricking yourself right into a smaller portion.
In the event you lived for an overweight person for almost any length of time than you should not see weight-loss as merely one stage in your life. You now know how to go about shedding weight and must remain focused on keeping the load off permanently.
If you are on holiday, that doesn't mean your diet is simply too. Keep your money by utilizing your personal snacks and low-calorie meals. Going on walking tours wherever possible will assist you to burn those extra calories. It is quite easy say "I'm just planning to allow it to go. I am on my vacation! ", however, if you stick with your fat loss plan no matter where you will be, you are going to feel happier about yourself.
A consultation together with your primary care physician is vital before you start any weight loss pill regimen. When someone is on medication or has heart issues they will be very cautious in the available diet pills. Before starting taking just about any weightloss pills, buy your doctor's okay.
Clearly, there are several ways to lose weight. You must practice the ideas mentioned as well as stay consistent. Only reading them won't assistance with fat loss, so you must operate and do them. You will find a better outlook on life after you shed weight.

WWE SmackDown Live Results February 28th 2017, Latest SmackDown Live winners and video highlights
SmackDown Live continued to deliver with only one month leading up to WrestleMania
More pictures and videos will be uploaded shortly.
The episode of SmackDown Live took place with 3 matches announced beforehand. Did Becky Lynch get her revenge on Mickie James? Did Apollo Crews get redemption for himself and Kalisto against the changed Dolph Ziggler? Who became Bray Wyatt's WrestleMania opponent? AJ Styles or Luke Harper? What did John Cena have to say to the man the cost him a shot at #17 at WrestleMania? Find out below!
SmackDown Live starts off with Daniel Bryan and Shane McMahon reviewing the footage from the previous week's Battle Royal. AJ came in and said that he was the clear winner, wanting a free pass to the main event of WrestleMania. Shane said that he was lucky he was even getting the opportunity.
AJ then began insulting Harper and his "smell", not realising Harper was behind him. Once he finally did realise, he walked away. Harper stared at Bryan and Shane and said "Thank you" before walking away.
The Miz TV with John Cena
The Miz didn't beat around the bush and did not let Cena talk. The Miz said he had a decade of frustration to get off his chest and refused to accept Cena's likely retort of him being arrogant. The Miz said that Cena is on top of the food chain because he manipulates people, and talks to the right people.
The crowd started Cena chants. A lot of kids in the crowd too, but more importantly, a LOT of Cena fans. The Miz says he's not "the other guy". He spoke about main eventing WrestleMania and beat him, but two weeks later, he manipulated things against him. The Miz said that he isn't the only one who can see through Cena's hypocrisy.
He then began the comparison with The Rock and his feud against him and called out Cena's hypocrisy of going to Hollywood once he got the call. The crowd chanted "You sold out" to Cena, and The Miz pointed out. The Miz called John Cena a fool of himself. "Let's Go Cena" "Cena sucks!" chants started getting louder and louder.
The Miz addressed the battling "Let's go Cena" and "Cena sucks" chants, he then said that it was he who was doing everything to make SmackDown Live! a must-see show, unlike Cena. He then said that Cena was gifted a championship match upon his return at the Royal Rumble and manipulated his way into the history books.
The Miz said that Ric Flair was still the greatest of all time, and accused Cena of manipulating his way into the history books, and the reason why he eliminated Cena at the battle royal is because it was only a portion of what Cena did to him the last 10 years.
Cena starts down talking The Miz's "theory". He said that if he could pull the strings he would rather face The Undertaker at WrestleMania instead of The Miz. He said it's easy for The Miz to blame him.
Cena told The Miz that he tried to steal The Rock's electricity, Chris Jericho's personality, Daniel Bryan's move set and the words of AJ Styles for the past 6 months. Cena said that he isn't mad about The Miz eliminating him last week. He said that The Miz complains and blames everyone else, but Cena acts like a man and deals with it.
Cena tells The Miz that he isn't The Undertaker, but if he talks too much, he'll be a "deadman". When he walks away, Maryse called him back and told him that he had an inflated ego, then slapped him. Cena told Maryse that she made the biggest mistake of her life, and Nikki Bella ran out.
This led The Miz and Maryse to fled, and Nikki told Maryse not to "mess with her man", before insulting her with the "B" word.

Fall Asleep Faster
Swallow THIS, Fall Asleep Almost Instantly, Stay Asleep, and Wake Up Refreshed
This is what you need:
- 1 tablespoon of coconut oil
- ¼ teaspoon of raw honey
- 1/8 teaspoon of sea salt
These amazing three ingredients help your body relax during the night and the combination lowers the impact of spikes in stress hormones or cortisol, which is what keeps you up and wakes you up every night.
Preparation and method of use:
For this treatment to be effective you need to take all three ingredients before you go to sleep. There are two options you can consume this remedy:
1st Option:
You can mix the coconut oil and honey and add the sea salt. Mix it all together and consume it with a spoon. Drink a glass of water afterwards
2nd Option
You can take the coconut oil and raw honey separately, without mixing them and then drink a cup of water. In the end mix the salt with some water and drink it too.
If by any chance you wake up during the night take the remedy and go back to sleep, you'll fall asleep again in less than 30 minutes.
Why is this combination helpful?
Coconut oil provides you energy during the night and helps you feel full, preventing waking up hungry. It also stops you blood sugar levels spiking in the middle of the night, which is the most common reason why you wake up.
And last but not least, salt. It also helps in reducing the stress hormone levels and provides you with enough energy to keep your body sustained during the night.

Unanswered: Create a Read-Only and Write version of a DB?
Hey dBforums-ers,
I'm fairly noob to the Access database game...just started here and there this summer!
My Question:
What's the preferred/best practice/or ok to use method in order to have a read-only (view forms and print reports) user version and also a write (able to add/edit the data) version of an Access DB?
My Setup:
DB created with Access 2010. Users will be using Runtime2010. DB split into FE on each user's PC and BE on a shared network drive. About 8 users will occasionally use this DB. Some will just need to view forms and print reports, others will be changing the data occasionally. The way I've set my DB up is that you click a button to bring up an editable form to edit any data. So with that in mind:
Combing the web I've basically gotten these 3 solutions:
1. Easiest for me: Create 2 FE's. More work to make changes w/2, but I'm ok with that...for now. My particular DB only brings up an editable form when you click a button. So I could just copy the FE and just quickly delete these few buttons to essentially create a Read-Only version.
2. Incorporate the User Level Security from an older mdb DB, or some form of it that would allow read-only and write permissions maybe.
3. Create workgroups on the network and assign permissions to the files there...not sure of the details on that but I think that's what a few places mentioned doing.
Anyways...regardless of my potential solutions above I'm looking for other peoples input on how to just have a Read-only (view forms and print reports) user version and also a write (able to change the data) version of the DB.
Thanks in advance and you have probably answered this before so feel free to just link to a post if you like. I appreciate any feedback on this.
(Background in HTML/CSS, new to VBA-Macros but I can generally follow along with what it's trying to do...incorporating it is another story...)

How about creating access levels within the database to recognize who is logged in to a computer? That is usually my preferred method as it is seamless for the end user.
I usually start by creating a table with Username and AccessLevel fields
John Doe..............Regular User
Jane Doe..............Admin User
I then create a module and place in this code:
Public Function Environ(Expression) On Error GoTo Err_Environ Environ = VBA.Environ(Expression) Exit_Environ: Exit Function Err_Environ: MsgBox Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description Resume Exit_Environ End Function
I place this code on the form's On Load:
Me.UserName = Environ("username")
Here is an example in one of my databases:
Me.UserName = Environ("username") Me.Greeting = "Hello, " & DLookup("First", "qry_Email", "[Q Number]=[Forms]![frm_Switchboard]![UserName]") & " " & DLookup("Last", "qry_Email", "[Q Number]=[Forms]![frm_Switchboard]![UserName]") & "!" Me.UserType = DLookup("Rights", "qry_Email", "[Q Number]=[Forms]![frm_Switchboard]![UserName]") If Me.UserType = "Regular User" Then Me.cmdNotCompleted.Visible = False Me.cmdTables.Visible = False Me.cmdUnassigned.Visible = False Me.cmdLockout.Visible = False Me.Label20.Visible = False Me.Label21.Visible = False Me.Label22.Visible = False Me.Label24.Visible = False Me.cmdclose.Top = 3.1667 * 1440 Me.Label25.Top = 3.1667 * 1440 Me.Command26.Top = 2.0417 * 1440 Me.Label27.Top = 2.0417 * 1440 Me.Command28.Top = 2.4167 * 1440 Me.Label29.Top = 2.4167 * 1440 Me.cmdCompleted.Top = 2.7917 * 1440 Me.Label23.Top = 2.7917 * 1440 End If If Me.UserType = "Admin User" Then Me.cmdLockout.Visible = False Me.Label24.Visible = False Me.cmdclose.Top = 4.2917 * 1440 Me.Label25.Top = 4.2917 * 1440 End If

hhhmmm...the code looks like it would accomplish exactly what I'm looking to do!! But I have a couple questions in getting there:
1. In your example the 2nd line Me.Greeting is an optional line?
2. In your example the 3rd line "Me.UserType....". Did you create a log-in at your switchboard form which ties in who the username is so it knows what to compare the AccessLevel to?
Thanks for your help!

Yes, the Me.Gretting is optional.
What I did was I made a field called Greeting, so when John Doe logs in, the main menu says at the top of the screen "Hello, John Doe!"
For Me.UserType....Yes, I put this field on the main menu so it would recognize the user level. I forgot to mention this. I also set that visible property to False.

Group joins court bid to overturn 20-year time limit for sexual assault prosecution
TMG Digital | 2017-05-18 18:38:19.0
The application aims to challenge a section of law which gives the state a maximum of 20 years to prosecute a sexual assault while there is no such time limit for the crime of rape. File photo
Image by: iStock Images
The Teddy Bear Foundation' represented by the Centre for Applied Legal Studies (CALS) at Wits University' has been admitted to intervene in a case as amicus curiae or 'friend of the court' in a case involving a sexual offender for offences allegedly committed decades ago.
The case will be heard at the South Gauteng High Court on Monday.
The application aims to challenge a section of law which gives the state a maximum of 20 years to prosecute a sexual assault while there is no such time limit for the crime of rape.
This application was brought by eight individuals who say they were sexually abused as children.
"We wish to assist the court with this important issue and support the applicants' position that it is in the public interest for victims of all forms of sexual violence to be able to access justice at any time'" Sheena Swemmer' Attorney at the Centre for Applied Legal Studies' said in a statement.
CALS argues that children who are sexually assaulted are "most often unable to come to terms with the experience until later in life' and they do so in many different forms".
"Typically' they disclose information about the experience over a long period as adults. Having a limited time in which they can report the crime effectively prevents these child victims from accessing justice'" the centre stated.
"The protections offered to survivors of rape need to be extended to the survivors of sexual assault'" said Shaheda Omar' Clinical Director at the Teddy Bear Foundation. "All sexual offences must be sanctioned by the law.
It is critical that all victims of sexual abuse be treated fairly and equally and be given the opportunity to be heard whenever they are ready."
