Southeast Asia has shown itself to be one of the most rapidly advancing regions in the world.
With a booming population of 644 million (and rising), half of whom are internet and social media users, you would expect that most people around the region would have access to most of the basic necessities required by a modern life.
You may find it surprising, then, that some estimates point out that barely a quarter of the region's population have a bank account.
For a region that has such a high internet penetration rate, it's hard to fathom that something many of us consider basic, like access to a bank and credit, is unavailable to so much of the Southeast Asian population.
Empowering the masses
The traditional banking model will always make it difficult for those who aspire to enter the middle to secure credit. The need for paperwork will always be there, even though there are alternative ways to prove that one would be a safe credit risk.
Fortunately, a few fintech companies are thinking out of the box to bring about a positive change for those who need it most.
Alternative credit scoring
One of these is CredoLab, a company that operates out of Singapore. They have created an app that scours the internet for your digital footprint, and turns over 50,000 data points to an artificial intelligence solution that turns data into 1,000 predictive markers.
The potential for CredoLab and their proprietary product, CredoApp is huge. They present a chance for consumers to secure loans through alternative credit scoring, which will then allow them to improve their quality of life.
It is an interesting model for those who would be good credit risks but don't have the paper trail available to prove it to moneylenders. This is prevalent in remote areas, where it does not make sense for a bank to set up a branch – and people suffer because they may need to make an extremely long trip just to access basic financial services.
The upside can't be ignored, as widening the availability of financial services opens up a hefty new market that would otherwise have remained underserved.
There are many other companies that offer comparable services as well, such as Lenddo and TrustingSocial.
Data use
The ability to perform such services also serves as a strong reminder that almost everything you do on the internet leaves a traceable footprint.
This certainly raises issues about privacy, and whether or not you are comfortable with companies being able to determine something as important as a credit score through your previous online behaviour.
However, we live in a world where Facebook tracks your every move and allows advertisers to target you based on your previous behaviour. Most of the time, your data is used to try to get you to spend money on frivolous consumer goods.
At the very least, it is good to see that there are companies out there that are also trying to use data to help people get a step up in their lives.

IAC targets wider MENA region
International Air charter, the aircraft charter broker, is set to focus on growing its business in the region beyond the GCC.
International Air charter, the aircraft charter broker, is set to focus on growing its business in the region beyond the GCC. As part of its plans to target the Levant, Egypt and North Africa, it will be exhibiting at next month's Mediterranean Travel Fair (MTF) in Cairo. At the 14-16th September event, the company is seeking agree alliances with travel agents and tours groups, as well as encourage new operators to explore the Middle East air charter industry.
"We are looking forward to use our presence at MTF to explore business potential in the Middle East and North Africa. As local business groups expand their operations across the MENA region, we foresee an increasing demand for inter-regional travel," commented Elie Abdo, director of business development, International Air Charter.
"Egypt's strategic location between the Levant and North Africa makes it an attractive location for the air charter industry. The country's own booming economy especially in the IT industry has also resulted in an increase in business travel, both in the domestic and international sector with the entry of multinational corporations," he added.
International Air Charter will also be looking to encourage more operators and investors to base aircraft in the region, as it looks to boost the supply of planes available locally. "As more countries in the region progress towards becoming tourism and business centers in their own right, the demand for specialized services like ours will increase," said Abdo.
"The entry of more aircraft operators will help fuel the already growing demand and propel the region's air charter industry towards further growth. We have already had fruitful discussions with a few aircraft operators during the recent Farnborough travel show who are looking at exploring this region," he added.

Frozen Waves Crashing Into The Beach Look Like Massive Slurpees (Photos)
It's no secret this winter has been colder than most.
I can't speak for the entire country, but I can confirm New England is still buried in snow (as my Rhode Island-based mother informs me), and the ice situation in New York has gotten out of hand.
Moral of the story: Winter sucks.
There is an upside to the brutal cold, however. The production of frozen waves is possibly the coolest (literally) thing you'll ever see.
Nantucket-based photographer Jonathan Nimerfroh managed to capture images of the incredible phenomenon, which he's been posting to his Twitter and Instagram accounts.
When the wave peaks, its texture and body look similar to those of a Slushee. They're sort of pebbly looking with rounded edges, and they're almost entirely opaque.
It's beautiful and incredibly rare to see ocean water freeze in this manner.
Our only complaint: We wish there were a video showing the waves' movement because we cannot get enough of this.
See the photos below, and head to Nimerfroh's Instagram page for more of his beautiful seascape photography.

We will also review about the price, interior, exterior and engine of the 2017 Honda Element Release Date.
Some crossover fans find boxy vehicles very attractive and sophisticated. Some companies are famous of their SUVs, for example Hummer, Mercedes-Benz G-Class and Jeep Wrangler. Now, Honda is entering in this market with refreshed Element. However, it reminds us on mentioned crossovers, but 2017 Honda Element is multifunctional SUV, which cut in production lasts for 6 years. We will see if Japanese carmaker decided to invest in this and make it one of the most wanted models right from its launch, or this will be exploration of its capacity.
The 2017 Honda Element is a new crossover SUV designed and manufactured by the Japanese automaker, Honda. A unique feature is a structure and the small size of the SUV. Compared to other small packages, this 2017 new element is set to be the best car in the automobile market. The 2017 Honda Element will also feature a new look, both exterior and interior and the performance shall also be upgraded. This is a great vehicle designed for the urban masses.
Honda is in each segment at the top grossing and sales. Each model has found its owner. Selling is always at the right level, so designers and engineers can not complain. As for the Honda Element, the vehicle was produced in the period from 2009 to 2011. For that, was in charge the factory in Ohio, USA. Sales slowly weakened and declined. In America in 2013 was sold the last model. That year was sold a total of two pieces. With the new redesigned model, the manufacturer expects a great success and a good profit.
2017 Honda Element Price
The latest price of 2017 Honda Element has been set at $16,000 – $26,000 based on the current dollar exchange rate. If there are changes in prices in 2017 Honda Element we will do an update on this article, so keep following our blog Bestautorelease.Com.
2017 Honda Element Redesign
For the next year 2017, the new Element will come with fresh changes in its interior and exterior styling, as well as with a significant improvement in its performance. This makes the new model Element an ideal vehicle for urban crowds.
2017 Honda Element belongs to compact category. Its main highlights from last model should be kept, which means we will again get practical vehicle with big cargo area and easy access to it from rear doors. Even this model is small crossover, it can take up to 6 passengers, which have enough room for their head and legs. Interior features and comfort are on decent level.
2017 Honda Element Specs
Below we have summarized some of the reviews about the features of the car exterior and interior 2017 Honda Element. The car is expected to be a comfortable car for the ride by the community.
The car that will be appropriate to the needs and possibilities. Honda Element will try to win the hearts of many drivers who have a need for this type of vehicle. It has a broad purpose with a modern look and many accessories. It fits perfectly in today's society or adventurers who plan a longer ride. The look is luxurious, with an attractive front grille, LED lights and a specific front bumper. Body shape is square, but the car works like a big box. But in addition, aerodynamics were successfully done. This does not mean that you should expect the characteristics of a racing car. The exterior color is of two shades, while the windows are quite large in size. Were used high quality materials and cornering behavior is excellent. This is important considering the car body.
The exterior of this SUV is perfect and tends to make ideal for your family unit. The wheels are 17-inch alloys and offer the top urban driving encounter. The car's front façade is covered by a black plastic that give the vehicle a extra interesting search. The front and rear bumpers are fairly lowered to protect the automobile underlayment parts. Using LED engineering and enlarged headlights will supply a much better driving working experience through the evening with no a great deal strain through the driver.
Barrier between the two front seats in the legs is removed, and the shift lever is raised to the upper part. As with vans. Just above the handle is placed LCD touchscreen. It is connected with the telecommunications options, good audio and navigation device. There is Bluetooth connectivity, USB port, hands-free calling, HD satellite radio etc.
2017 Honda Element Engine
Last time, when Element crossover was launched in 2011, it was powered with 2.4-l four-cylinder engine. Engine was capable to deliver 166 hp and 160 lb-ft of torque. This time we expect bigger unit, but not too much, and outputs won't change radically. Front wheels are getting power by default. The all-wheel drive is optional. The 2017 Honda Element should be available in two trims, as its predecessor, LX and EX, with various elements to choose between them.
While official info hasn't still been availed to the public, the car specialists speculates that the overall performance of your 2017 Honda Element beneath the hood might be a 2.4 L 4-cylinder engine (V-TEC) engine and set to create an output power of approximately 150 hp as well as a torque of 160 lb-ft.The primary speed is unknown, but again speculations state that it's going to possess a velocity of 110 miles per hour. The car is set to employ efficiently gasoline efficiently and, for that reason, save more about the fuel expense in the consumer.
Thank you for reading the article on the Best Auto Release, We hope article about the 2017 Honda Element can be useful as your knowledge in seeing the latest automotive world today.

Years that Winston cigarettes spent as the title sponsor of Nascar's championship series before stepping down last year. Now Nicorette, the smoking-cessation product, has signed on as a sponsor. Nicorette thinks many Nascar fans would like help quitting. "We understand that tobacco products created this arena—but the game has changed," says an exec at GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare, maker of Nicorette gum, NicoDerm patches and Commit lozenges. "This is a great audience for us."
Years ago that Kmart introduced the "blue-light special." The well-known promotional device eventually lost its luster as it was seen as a way of getting rid of unwanted merchandise and damaged goods, and it was ditched in 1991. On Jan. 15 and 16 of this year, though, it returned briefly at most Kmart stores. "We have no long-term plans to use it," a Kmart rep said last week. "We may occasionally use it. We know there's some recognition [of the phrase] among our customers."

Recipe Description:
Massaman is an unusual Thai curry, full of dried spices that aren't typically found in the region's cuisine, like cinnamon, cloves and star anise. It's thought that traders from the Middle East and India, bringing luxury ingredients to the cosmopolitan Ayutthaya Kingdom on Thailand's west coast, are responsible for the curry that literally translates as 'Muslim curry'. By the 18th century, Massaman was so popular that the then-king of Thailand wrote a poem praising its 'exciting allure' that would 'arouse any man'. We're not sure about that, but its combination of intricate Thai technique and soothing, aromatic flavour is hard to beat.

Properties of classical and quantum Jensen-Shannon divergence
Physical Review A: Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics , Volume 79 - Issue 5
Jensen-Shannon divergence (JD) is a symmetrized and smoothed version of the most important divergence measure of information theory, Kullback divergence. As opposed to Kullback divergence it determines in a very direct way a metric; indeed, it is the square of a metric. We consider a family of divergence measures (JD_alpha for alpha>0), the Jensen divergences of order alpha, which generalize JD as JD_1=JD. Using a result of Schoenberg, we prove that JD_alpha is the square of a metric for alpha lies in the interval (0,2], and that the resulting metric space of probability distributions can be isometrically embedded in a real Hilbert space. Quantum Jensen-Shannon divergence (QJD) is a symmetrized and smoothed version of quantum relative entropy and can be extended to a family of quantum Jensen divergences of order alpha (QJD_alpha). We strengthen results by Lamberti et al. by proving that for qubits and pure states, QJD_alpha^1/2 is a metric space which can be isometrically embedded in a real Hilbert space when alpha lies in the interval (0,2]. In analogy with Burbea and Rao's generalization of JD, we also define general QJD by associating a Jensen-type quantity to any weighted family of states. Appropriate interpretations of quantities introduced are discussed and bounds are derived in terms of the total variation and trace distance.

As I mentioned briefly in my post on The Home Front propaganda posters were a highly visible means to evoke emotive responses, to extol the benefits of civil sacrifice towards military efforts or to either inspire or shame men into enlisting. The public was very keen on war news and any such that would be available would be consumed ravenously whether it was a news article, a letter from a relative at the front (which were also heavily edited) or works of art. Many of these, like the paintings of Richard Jack, a Briton commissioned as an official Canadian War Artist, were more evocative than representational considering they were produced after the events depicted and without the artist having seen the battle area. In all media, the one thing that could not be kept secret were the casualty lists which were published as they became available. This, tempered against incomplete and rhetorically positive print led to a great confusion and the beginning of doubt of public opinion.
The advent of motion picture film gave a completely new dimension to the way in which civilians would witness war. Films like "The Battle of the Somme" allowed those at home to visit cinemas and see for themselves what those on the Western Front were experiencing. Some front line footage was shot and remained part of the final edit, but the majority of the movie was compiled through shooting staged scenes well behind the line. Regardless, it was a propaganda success:
In 1916 the film was a media phenomenon, featuring the first documentary war footage....it remains the most viewed feature in British cinema history....It was the War Minister's (Lloyd George) belief that viewing the film would develop civilians' sympathy with the cause...would encourage men to enlist; and would engage women's support for the war.
Philpott, Bloody Victory pp 301-02
After the war, however, there was a dichotic switch as privately published novels, memoirs, histories and anthologies made their way into the mainstream. From the same hunger to want to know what war is like to those not experienced of it, these publications became incredibly popular. In the same way that propaganda during the war swayed opinion in favour of the war the prevailing anti-war sentiment of the post-war media has done a great deal to public conciousness in regards to World War One that remains with us to a large extent today. It is important to acknowledge the source and influence of these opinions, however. Many were written by those who had no professional attachment to the armed forces beyond their war experience, and were being related to a civil population that had no understanding of military affairs. Graves, Owen and Sassoon, three of the most influential British writers in the post war era and as such responsible for the detractive sentiments that became widely believed all had incredibly negative war experiences to the extent that each one had received treatment at one point or another for neurological ailments, then known as "shell shock" and little understood, but their bias speaks from very dark places. Even official histories, such as those written by Sir Basil Liddell Hart contain harsh opinions on the conduct of the war that were personally held and now have become inseparable from the ideology of the conflict.
It was of crucial importance during the war to keep control of the media and public opinion, otherwise the notion of "total war" may have collapsed. Afterword, the public shift in anti-war thinking, propagated by persuasive writers and personalities so adjusted the view of armed conflicts as to lead many nations to an unpreparedness for the next world war to follow.

Kenneth S penner Center for the Study of Youth Development, Boys Town, Nebraska, 68010 David L. Featherman Department of Rural Sociology, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin 53706 The themes of worldly success and individual achievement have been cen tral to the cultures of many Western industrial societies. Following Weber, students of several disciplines have continued to pursue explanations that locate the psychological sources of worldly success in the "motivations" and "ambitions" of individuals. The scientific literatures of both sociology. and psychology reflect this hypothesis about the wellspring of achievement. However, these literatures are neither small nor homogeneous in the array of concepts, measures, and explanations that are used to link "ambition" to "achievement." More important, there does not exist a single, dominant theoretical paradigm to order the multitude of empirical generalizations, to explain them, or to provide for an orderly program of investigation of important issues. This review is constrained by this state-of-the-art. No attempt is made to provide a detailed map of the topography of this literature over the years. Rather, the review is directed at summarizing and organizing the more important recent developments! in the study of achievement ambitions. It highlights some of the issues that

This week, I attended a feng shui presentation here in Belle Plaine, at Mystic Journey. The proprietor, Sarah Jaeger, offers lovely things for your spiritual journey, whatever religious (or not) path you take. She has books, candles, incense, crystals, music, and more, and most Mondays, a workshop or presentation. Find her website in my list of favorite people, at the lower right .
Feng shui expert, Carole Hyder, spoke this Monday. Now, I've read just enough about feng shui to be skeptical. I know there is a very complicated traditional Chinese version requiring birth charts, astrology, and intensive training. This never clicked with me, as I just don't believe humans are designed to need detailed formulas and highly trained professionals to connect us with divine energy. Can it be done that way? Doubtless, but it doesn't sound like fun, and doing it intuitively, I know from experience, is fun.
The other feng shui, Black Hat, I believe it is called, I wasn't sold on either. It is far simpler, but one of the basic principles, having to do with direction, is so at odds with the traditional method, how could they both be true? Well, here's what I've come to understand after a week of mulling over Carole's presentation..
Everything is energy. Energy moves, like anything, either where it is directed, or along the path of least resistance. It is wise to attract healthy energy to your home, and allow it to flow freely through all parts. By following feng shui methods when decorating, you ascertain that all aspects of a healthy life are represented in a balanced manner, and that good energy flows to and around them all. I'm all about decorating with symbols of intention, and using feng shui forces you to pay close attention to what you're living with, and without, where life is flowing, and where it is stuck. Carole's information made sense to me, from this perspective.
She was also not adamant about the colors for each area. For instance, traditionally the front door should be red, and the area in the far left front corner, as you enter this door, should contain blue. Well, I don't want blue in that corner, and I would hate a red door on this house. And I really hate the work should! Carole recommended painting the front door a color that says "you", or decorating around it with red items.
Since it's about twenty degrees outside today, I don't think Mr. Q has to decide between fuchsia, plum or periwinkle paint, so I won't even stress him out (just yet) by mentioning the idea. I do think it's a good day to get out some winter decorations, like old red skis, for the porch. I'll pop a photo on here later. In the meantime, check out Carole's website, also listed to the right, and remember that this blog is my take on feng shui, not her information, verbatim.

The Best Charge Cards for Small Businesses
If you're looking for a convenient payment method that lets you consolidate your small business spending without worrying about expensive interest charges, a charge card could be a useful financial tool. Though you cannot carry a balance from month to month on a charge card, the best business charge cards offer perks including preferential treatment, valuable rewards and generous sign-up bonuses.
American Express Business Platinum
The Business Platinum charge card from American Express carries a hefty $450 annual fee as of 2013, but its numerous rewards and exclusive perks make it the best small business charge card on the market. Whether you or your employees use the card, American Express rewards your spending with one Membership Rewards point for each dollar you spend, and two points on each dollar spent through the American Express travel service. Like many other cards, the Business Platinum offers complimentary travel insurance, roadside assistance and purchase protection. The additional benefits really set this card apart from the competition, though. As an Amex Platinum member, you will receive room upgrades, complimentary breakfast and late checkout at select hotels. The Platinum card also gives you premium car rental memberships with Hertz, Avis and National. When you fly, your Amex Platinum gives you complimentary access to airport business lounges from American Airlines, Delta and US Airways as well a credit of up to $200 toward airline fees. If you take an international flight, your Platinum card will also get you a complimentary business or first-class companion ticket. As of 2013, Amex offers a 25,000-point sign-up bonus in its Membership Rewards program.
American Express Business Gold
The Business Gold card from American Express offers many of the same purchase protections, return guarantees, extended warranties and travel insurances as the more expensive Platinum card. For an annual fee of $175, though, the Business Gold card also grants you three Amex Membership Rewards points for each dollar you spend on airfare, two points per dollar for advertising, gas and shipping expenses and one point per dollar for almost every other expense.
Chase Ink Bold
For each dollar you spend on a Chase Ink Bold charge card, you earn one point in the Chase Ultimate Rewards program. If you spend money on travel and gas, though, Chase rewards each dollar with two points. For office supplies and payments to phone, Internet and cable TV services, though, you will receive a whopping five points for each dollar you spend. Each of your employees can receive an additional Ink Bold card linked to your account at no additional charge, and Chase offers a bonus of 50,000 points for signing up for their business charge card. The annual fee for this card is $95.
Bank of America Business Preferred World MasterCard
When you open a Bank of America Business Preferred World MasterCard account and make your first purchase, your business will instantly earn 10,000 bonus points in the WorldPoints Rewards program. Each year, Bank of America recognizes the anniversary date of your charge card account with an additional 10,000 point bonus. You will pay a $125 annual fee after your first year, but employees can have additional cards at no cost and you can limit their spending via an online portal. Bank of America offers complimentary identity theft protection with this card, and the company provides an array of spending tracking and transaction report tools.

If you ever wanted to jump into the profitable world of live-streaming, CamSoda has an intriguing offer for you. The company, which made it's name as an adult entertainment webcam platform, announced the launch of "LifeStream," a program that allows people to broadcast their candid lives. This isn't all about sex and nudity though, and you will be compensated for it. CamSoda is the first adult entertainment company to officially enter into the live streaming arms race alongside Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and SnapChat.
"Live streaming has quickly become a focal point of our society, with more people than ever broadcasting themselves to reach and connect with large audiences more intimately. Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter and Instagram have all capitalized on this burgeoning trend, rolling out livestreaming services of their own, and we're excited to do the same – with a twist," said Darren Press, VP, CamSoda. "Unlike these social media networks, where users choose the moments they want to broadcast and share, our offering broadcasts everything – from surfing the Internet to eating lunch. It's a true depiction of someone's entire life – and doesn't require any nudity or sex – and we're confident people will want to share and watch it."
In return for their participation in LifeStream, participants receive one to three high-definition 720P webcams that are placed in different rooms in their home and broadcast 24/7. Fans can view broadcasts live on the CamSoda site. For those participating in the program, CamSoda will provide the above mentioned webcams for free, pay them $200 per month and pay for their monthly Internet bill.
In addition to the candid, uncensored life stream, participants will have the ability to encapsulate specific parts of their day in the form of stories, similar to those on Snapchat, Instagram and Facebook. Rather than tuning in 24/7, viewers can peruse through a performer's story which will feature video sequences from the past 24 hours.
CamSoda is currently testing a virtual reality (VR) camera to bring a fully immersive experience to the masses. The company has plans to incorporate VR into LifeStream in the coming months. This will allow participants to share their experiences more intimately, enabling viewers to feel as though they are actually in the room with them.

A Salina man who was arrested back in July following an incident outside an apartment complex is facing federal gun and drug charges.
According to U.S. Attorney Stephen McAllister 's office, 25-year-old Blake Nicol is charged with one count of possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, one count of unlawful possession of a firearm following a felony conviction and one count of unlawful possession of a firearm in furtherance of drug trafficking.
The crimes are alleged to have occurred on July 3rd.
Salina Police told KSAL News back in July Nicol was arrested on multiple charges after officers found him with a stolen gun from Wichita.
A witness told officers that around 10pm on June 27th, Nicol approached him in the parking lot of the Chapel Ridge Apartments, pointed a handgun at him and said he just wanted to talk.
The man ran away – but remembered the suspect's face.
Six days later, he saw Nicol wandering around the parking lot at the Central Mall on South 9th and called authorities. Police say Nicol ran from officers and was taken into custody at the nearby Chapel Ridge Apartments.
If convicted, Nicol faces up to 20 years in federal prison and a fine up to $1 million on the drug charge, up to 10 years and a fine up to $250,000 on the charge of unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon, and not less than five years and a fine up to $250,000 on the charge of possessing a firearm in furtherance of drug trafficking.

It can be a huge relief when one of your friends or family members tells you that they have decided to quit smoking. It can also leave you thinking 'About time!'. It's important, though, to remember that quitting isn't easy and those trying to quit may be feeling a mix of emotions – some positive and some negative.
Receiving support from friends and family members is essential to successfully quitting. So by listening to the needs of those trying to quit smoking and encouraging them to go at their own pace, you are making a real difference. You can start by simply asking, 'What can I do to help?'. Don't underestimate just how important this can be.
Support comes in two main forms: physical and emotional. Have a read through these support ideas to see which ones you can take on board to support those wanting to become smoke-free.
Physical support
One of the hardest parts of quitting is resisting the physical urge to smoke.
You can help someone who is giving up smoking fight the urge by giving them something other than cigarettes to keep their mouth and hands busy. Perhaps put a 'Quit Kit' together for them filled with helpful tools: toothpicks, sugar-free lollipops, chewing gum, healthy snack options like fruits and nuts, and a stress ball.
Just being there for them during moments when they have the urge to smoke can also be a big help. The urge usually passes within a few minutes,1 so your presence can help distract and reassure them during some of the harder times.
Also encourage them to join you in the great outdoors: go for a walk, swim or leisurely cycle together. As they start to breathe easier,2 they will be able to enjoy the activities more and more (not to mention the added time with you), giving them motivation to stay smoke-free.
You might want to suggest that the person trying to give up smoking talks to their doctor for extra support available to help beat their cravings.
Emotional support
Some people may experience nicotine withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety and irritability.3 Be a good listener. Let them talk about their feelings, or even have a little rant, but make sure that you remind them that these symptoms will fade with time,3 and that the benefits of quitting make all the effort worthwhile.
It's easy for those trying to quit to become discouraged, have a slip-up or give up altogether. In fact, it's normal to have many quit attempts. If someone you know slips-up, remind them that it's not the end of the world. Help them get back on their feet and stay focused on their goal of going smoke-free. Encourage them to be realistic and make a plan about how to help prevent any future slip-ups.
Try not to get bogged down with the hard times and remember to celebrate the milestones: 24-hours smoke-free, one week, two weeks – every single milestone is important and should be recognised. A little praise can make a big difference. You could also go one step further and surprise them with a card, a home-cooked meal or tickets to the movies or a live show.
Quitting smoking is hard, but your support can make it much easier. It might be as simple as offering someone a sugar-free lolly or piece of chewing gum at the right moment, or just asking them how they are feeling. Remember, your support can make all the difference to someone trying to quit smoking and achieving their goal to be smoke-free.

Our cousin, Paloma has come to stay. We picked her up from the airport early this morning and have spent a lovely day hanging around together.
Our cousin, Paloma has come to stay. We picked her up from the airport early this morning and have spent a lovely day hanging around together.
San Martin is the town Papi lived in until he went to college. We've had such a great time visiting family, school friends and Papi's old hang outs from when he was our age.
Ruby and Chiqui have a Lottery shop which was fun to play in.
Tia Chela is 94! (Papi's father's sister)
These are pictures of our Great Grandparents!
This is where Papi's mom and dad are laid to rest.
We had a ton of fun at the park.
And when Papi and mum we're visiting old friends from his street, we played in front of Papi's old house, with the next generation of families on the street. Just as Papi did 40 years ago.
Making empanadas for the whole family requires many hands.
Filling circles of dough with cooked meat, olives and boiled egg.
Folding the circle in half.
Closing them is the tricky bit!
We eventually got the hang of it!
Some people wanted fried and others baked… so we did both!
They were a hit!
Tia Matilde and Tio Anibal helped us identify family in old photos. There was a really, really old one that was of my Great, Great grandparents on Papi's moms side.
We also enjoyed their garden, pool and puppies!
We've been decorating Christmas cookies with Agus and Lulu!

Family Cruise Holiday Review
The normal fears went through our mind about safety and how we can keep them entertained but we really need not have worried - they both loved it. the great feature of the voyager class ships are they are really a floating resort with such a wide range of facilities on offer to keep children entertained. The ice skating, mini-golf, dance shows, pools, childrens clubs, roller skating and shopping mall were well used throughout the week.
I must say the staff at the childrens club were very good and the kids enjoyed their time there and were kept well entertained.
The space offered on these ships is very welcome with small children as there is always something to explore and it allows you room to move on the odd occasion that the children get upset/irritable on board.
Overall I think the children adapted very well to a cruise holiday and I would have no issues taking them on another family cruise.

Here's the strawberry jam in its jars:
The rasberry jam not yet lidded. (Is "lidded" a word??)
And the best bit about jam making - other than the supply of jam, of course - is the skimmings. These are the raspberry skimmings. They're yummmmmmmmmmy. :o)
I've also spent some time planning a hanging for - yikes! - Christmas.
Here's the pile of fabrics I chose to go with.
More of that as it progresses. :o)

Interview with Dr. Samir Ayoub, Director-General of the ESSCA Group
Could you please introduce yourself and tell us about ESSCA?
Ecole Supérieur des Sciences Commerciales d'Angers (ESSCA) is a renowned business school in France that was founded in 1909. It offers a variety of courses in marketing, finance, human resource management, digital management and consultancy at the Bachelor's and Master's levels.
For my part, I took over as Dean and CEO of the ESSCA Group in September 2017. I am a product of the Saint-Joseph University in Beirut where I studied Business Management. In 2007, I obtained a doctorate degree in Management Studies from the Paris II Pantheon-Assas University where I taught Finance and Management control before lecturing in these same specialisations at ESSCA.
Currently, as CEO of the group, my objective is to oversee ESSCA's continuous development to the fullest possible capacity, within the framework of the institution's 2014-2019 development plan. This involves consolidating our newly established campuses in Lyon, Bordeaux and Aix-en-Provence and to progressively creating a global brand that will be influential internationally. We also plan to diversify and expand our portfolio of study programmes.
What is your view of the relations between France and Africa, and Ghana in particular?
Today, French business Schools have a different perspective of Africa and are all beginning to embrace a common vision - that of supporting Africa's speedy growth through the education and training of its youth.
For ESSCA, Africa is at the heart of our strategic 5 year plan. We are an international multi-campus school, with two branches in Central Europe and Asia and we have been working with Cameroon since 2012, as well as looking to extend our reach to North Africa.
Ghana, buoyed by its economic and demographic development is clearly a country with huge potential. Although as an Anglophone nation, it has historically been predisposed to American and British higher education, I believe that France and ESSCA have what it takes to compete with the best Anglophone universities, which have up until now been the preference of the Ghanaian youth. Indeed, ESSCA is an institution that possesses the best international accreditations, offers a large portfolio of programmes in English and gives many opportunities for job placement in France and abroad so that young Ghanaians can gather professional experience before returning to their home country. In view of Brexit and the uncertainties surrounding the admission of African students into the United States, we are likely to be able to attract Ghanaian families, especially as this promises very substantial returns on investments.
Please tell us about your future plans in Ghana?
Ghana has an educational system of very good repute and level. ESSCA would thus become the first French school planning to set up a campus here and the success of this idea can only be realised in two stages. First of all, a strategic partnership would have to be signed with a local institution to facilitate possibilities of student exchanges and dual degree programmes. Based on the success of this first step, the establishment of a campus with a dedicated teaching staff could then be considered. Our intentions have been well received and encouraged by the French Embassy in Accra and I would like to take this opportunity to thank His Excellency the Ambassador and his staff for their support and commitment to this cause.

According to Buon Ma Thuot Coffee Association, the Central Highlands province of Dak Lak has filed geographical indication (GI) to Buon Ma Thuot coffee brand in 17 nations and territories worldwide and so far 12 have agreed to protect the brand name.
|A foreign visitor leaning about Buon Ma Thuot coffee products (Photo: SGGP)
Countries refusing the application include the US, the UK, Japan, South Korea and Switzerland.
Chairman of the association Trinh Duc Minh said that the registering for GI recognition was a long and costly period, needing large export firms especially the ownership representative of the trademark to join hands.
Mr. Minh said that the association has stopped filing the GI application for Buon Ma Thuot coffee brand in the five countries because of huge cost and unclear success possibility.
Buon Ma Thuot is a city of Dak Lak province where is home to 200,000 hectares of coffee with average output of 450,000 tons and export value of $500-600 million a year.
The province is named the metropolis of Vietnamese coffee. The first coffee tree was planted in the province 100 years ago.
In 2005, the National Office of Intellectual Property of Vietnam granted patent right to Buon Ma Thuot GI in ten years for 100,000 hectares in eight districts of Dak Lak with the output of 47,500 tons.
Of these, only 20,000 tons with Buon Ma Thuot GI have been advertised and exported with the added value of 2-3 percent.
Dak Lak started paying attention to the GI application abroad after a Chinese firm registered Buon Ma Thuot coffee brand's protection in its country in 2010.
After two years of doing legal procedures to require abolishment of Buon Ma Thuot coffee protection in China, the country accepted the requirement in February 2013.
The Buon Ma Thuot coffee brand which belongs to ownership of the Dak Lak People's Committee has been protected in China under the form of collective brand name since mid 2014.

Rio Olympic bronze medallist Tamás Kenderesi has become a fan favourite not only in Hungary, but throughout the world. The then-19-year-old swimmer beat Michael Phelps both in the heats and the semi-final of the 200 butterfly event, before finishing third in the final with a magnificent performance. He is a youth Olympic champion, as well as European senior bronze medallist, and he is dreaming of the gold medal at the 2017 FINA World Championships.
Tamás Kenderesi grew up in a small village in the county of Tolna, Southwest Hungary. His parents used to take him to the swimming club of Pécs, centre of the region, which was quite a nice gesture and effort of them, since they lived rather far from the city, and Kenderesi had two trainings every day.
It may seems a little bit funny today, but a lot of 'experts' thought he would never become a good swimmer. Thank God his parents and his coach Imre Tari believed in him, but his endurance was required as well to perform well.
2014 turned to be a turning point in his career. He won the gold medal at the European Junior Championships in Dordrecht in the 200m butterfly event, and also at the Hungarian Championship, beating world champion László Cseh and junior world champion Bence Biczó.
He finished in first place at the Youth Olympic Games in Nanking, too, breaking the junior world record.
In 2015 he beat László Cseh again in the Hungarian Championship with the second best time of the world that season. He was a secret favourite at the FINA World Championships in Kazan, but one week before the event he got infected with a virus causing mononucleosis.
It was not the only accident that year: his ligament was injured during the European Short Course Swimming Championships in Netanya, a solid eight months before the Rio Olympics.
Despite this misfortune he still claimed the bronze medal at the 2016 European Championships in London, in addition, he finished third at the Rio Olympics after beating Michael Phelps both in the heats and the semi-final. Kenderesi's time was 1:53.62 in the final.
"It was fantastic, I did my best, my dream has come true. I am very glad about my result and the fact that people in Hungary and across the world have learned my name. I paid attention to Michael and László, I managed to beat my compatriot. Michael was not too far either, I am very optimistic about the future." (origo.hu, 10 August 2016)
"When I was young, I watched every event of Michael Phelps, so it was a great pleasure to me to race with him and to stand on the podium with him. I feel very grateful to him for his help."
"I wanted László to fulfil his dream, but he still has a chance to win the Olympic gold in the 100m butterfly event."
In the end László Cseh finished second along with Michael Phelps and Chad le Clos, but it was still a sweeping act of Tamás Kenderesi. In addition, the young swimmer helped a family which lost their home in a fire. He offered his sweat suit which he was wearing during the Rio Olympics for an online auction.
20-year-old Kenderesi has become one of the most popular athletes in Hungary, and he is well known throughout the world as well. His nickname is 'butterfly prince', but he can become the 'butterfly king' after the FINA World Championships in Budapest.
Born: Bonyhád (Hungary), 13 December 1996
Medal record:
Olympic bronze medallist (2016 Rio de Janeiro, 200m butterfly)
European bronze medallist (2016 London, 200m butterfly)
Youth Olympic champion (2014 Nanking, 200m butterfly)

NBA: Harden pens $160m contract extension with Rockets
The Houston Rockets have signed star guard James Harden to a four-year, $160m contract extension, giving him the richest contract in NBA history at $228m over six years.
The Rockets said on Saturday that the extension will run through 2022-23 season but will not kick in until 2019.
"It's my pleasure to announce we've reached agreement with James Harden on a long term contract extension," Houston Rockets owner Leslie Alexander said in a statement.
He added that Harden's "incredible work ethic, desire to win, and passion to be the best" make him "the perfect leader in our pursuit of another championship".
This year's runner-up to Russell Westbrook for the NBA's MVP title, Harden has two years and nearly $60m left on his current contract with the Rockets.
"Since he arrived in Houston, James has exhibited the incredible work ethic, desire to win, and passion to be the best that has made him one of the most unique and talented superstars in the history of the game," Alexander said.
Harden averaged 29.1 points and led the NBA with 11.2 assists last season.
Harden, whose team managed the league's third best win-loss record in 2016-2017, became the first player in the competition's history to record at least 2,000 points, 900 assists and 600 rebounds this season.
"Houston is home for me," Harden said. "My teammates and I are going to keep putting in the work to get better and compete for the title."
The new NBA season begins on October 20.

I am thrilled to announce my first AfroModern Quilts Masterclass will be hosted by Cultured Expressions, a fabulous shop and studio run by Lisa Shepard Stewart.
Here are the details:
DATE: May 29, 30 and 31, 2020
MasterClass Location: Gateway Family YMCA in Rahway NJ
Registration Fee: $495 per person includes personalized instruction by me; all retreat activities; evening receptions at the CE Studio; and a 10 piece African Fabrics Prints pack for your project.
[Travel and area Hotel information will be sent upon registration. ]
Registration Form
HERE is the registration form. Hurry–seats are limited! AfroModernMasterclass reg form
MasterClass AfroModern Focus Project and Techniques
Our focus project will be the AfromModern Improv Squares Quilt. Here's a version of the quilt–and you will have lots of opportunity to create your very own unique version of this quilt.
In this MasterClass, you will explore:
- Principles of modern quilt design
- AfroModernism and quilt design–how to showcase African fabrics in a modern design
- Improvisational techniques with and without rulers
- Improvisational curved piecing–no pinning or templates involved
I will provide lots of hands on coaching during the MasterClass.
Overview of our schedule:
- We open the doors at 1 p.m. on Friday May 29, 2020 for sewing space setup. There will be an orientation to the AfroModern project and discussion of your fabric choices, followed by the Color and Value Workshop. Friday will end with a reception at the Cultured Expressions Studio (and optional shopping!).
- Saturday we will begin with AfroModern quilt samples, demos on curved piecing and demos on improv with and without rulers. We will spend most of the day actively sewing! Saturday evening we will have a special event.
- Sunday we continue our sewing time–and sharing what we are learning about making AfroModern quilts. We end with a final Show & Share and close our MasterClass at 3 p.m.
Supply lists will be sent upon registration.
Color and Value Workshop for Quilters
Color and value will be the focus of our Friday afternoon session for the MasterClass.
How's your color and value confidence? Do you find yourself hesitating and second-guessing when selecting fabrics? Color choices can make or break our quilts' impact. This fun, well-organized workshop may be one of the most helpful and empowering workshops you can take!
We have all used the color dots on the selvedge of a "focus fabric" to build a palette. Sometimes, that's enough to give us a great start. But what if you don't have a focus fabric? How can we build a palette with more confidence in our color and value choices?
As quilters, we need differences in value so that our fabric choices create the effect we want. In this fast-paced workshop, you will take part in several hands-on exercises that will help you understand color and different ways of achieving value. We will focus on how to see our fabrics better and how to add what we might need to make our quilt projects more vibrant and unique.
We will work together on several different hands-on practical exercises to help us see color and value in new ways that we can translate into our next quilt project. We will use glue sticks and scissors–no sewing needed for this part of our time together at the retreat.

7 Foods that May Help Prevent Hair Loss
Are you worried about those falling strands of hair too? Do you dread brushing your hair for fear of going bald? You are not alone! Many women and men suffer from this daily stress of having to deal with continuously falling hair. In their trouble, they opt for doctors, medical treatments, oils, and massages. Little do they know that the real problem lies in the hair itself, which can only be corrected by strengthening it. The big question is how do you strengthen your hair? Well, like every other part of the body, your hair needs special nutrients to grow and gain strength. Usually, however, we don't pay much attention to the food we eat and meddle in other less important things. On the contrary, a healthy diet is very important for preventing hair loss. Here we present some miracle foods that will help your hair get strong, preventing hair loss.
- Fish
Fish contains abundant quantities of good fat. This good fat, includes the omega fatty acids, which are needed for healthy skin, hair and nails. These nutritious fatty acids target your scalp to improve its conditions, helping to create a healthy environment for your hair to grow in and hence, preventing hair fall. In addition to this, there is also a link of omega fatty acids with heart health. This good hair health helps prevent heart disease so that eating them gives you several benefits in one.
- Oranges
Oranges are filled full of vitamin C. This vitamin is necessary for the regeneration and repair of hair and skin cells, and also aids in making them strong. Furthermore, it has antioxidant properties, which help fight many damaging chemicals in your scalp to help maintain the optimum surroundings for your hair to grow in. In addition to all this, vitamin C is an essential component of collagen, which is necessary for making strong hair and is also used to absorb dietary iron from the intestine. This iron also helps make the grip of your hair roots strong, helping you treat hair loss.
- Chickpeas
Chickpeas are wonder foods for hair loss. This is because they contain large quantities of Vitamin B6 and Zinc. Two essential vitamins that are needed for healthy hair growth. Zinc is needed in the growth function of the hair, high quantities will prevent weakening and hence, hair loss. What's more, the Zinc also acts on the scalp to prevent dandruff which is also a plus as dandruff also induces hair loss.
- Soybeans
Soybeans contain large amounts of iron and Vitamin E. Iron is necessary for helping to strengthen the hair, stimulating its growth to increase the number of hair as well as preventing hair loss. Vitamin E, on the other hand, is needed for maintaining the strength and health of the scalp. The vitamin E also acts as an antioxidant to neutralize any toxic chemicals or damaging environmental influences to preserve the strength and of the hair, contributing to the prevention of hair loss.
- Whole-wheat
Whole wheat is a very important component of the diet for your general health. It is essential for your hair health as well. This is because it has lots of Silica and iron in it which aids in helping your intestine absorb many essential vitamins from the intestine. These vitamins are needed to prevent hair fall and so Whole-wheat indirectly aids in keeping all your hair on your head!
- Almonds
Almonds nuts are extremely rich in many nutritional elements. Some of these target the hair as well. Of the beneficial ingredients, the vitamin E, iron and proteins are necessary for making your hair strong. Each component has its own role in contributing to the strength of the hair, but the final effect is no hair loss, which is what we all want!
- Oats
Oats – these heavily loaded packets of energy are also rich in iron, potassium, and magnesium. These are necessary for helping the hair grow in a healthy manner preventing it from falling, contributing to the overall decrease in hair fall.
All these foods are examples of yummy yet extremely beneficial diet components that can remove hair fall from your life. The great news is, incorporating them into your diet is pretty easy. Hence, availing the benefits of these foods is simply a matter of choice. We are all in for making a dietary change to have long and strong hair, I guess you will accompany us on this journey too!

I love to craft, obviously, but I've always loved to draw and paint ever since I was little. When asked for gift ideas around the holidays I tend to say things like "anything from the craft store" beacuase really I would be smitten with just about anything from the craft store. So often people are overwhelmed by all the options and they just don't know what to get for their creative crafty friends. I've rounded up 12 fabulous gift ideas that any crafty girl would love recieve.
The links below are affiliate links, you can view my full disclosure policy here. All images courtesy of amazon.com.
These 12 gift ideas will impress any crafty girl on your list. From simple supplies to organizational wonders, you cannot go wrong with these gems.
Click on the images for all the details
Just about every crafty girl I know, including myself, LOVES jars. Any kind of jar will do for a gift, a party, a craft, or an organizer. These purple mason jars and to die for, I can think of no less than 100 craft projects to do with these jars.
A pretty notebook is essential. I love to jot down ideas and a beautiful cover and pages keep me inspired.
Pretty patterned paper is great to have on hand. Every crafter has some in her stash. This paper pad is on trend with some beautiful colors and patterns.
The Silhouette Cameo, the gold standard in electronic cutting. At least in my opinion. This machine has allowed me to take my crafting to the next level. If you are looking for a big time gift this year, think about this bundle. She will love it, I promise!
An organizing cart is great for the crafty girl without a craft room. It holds all those little tools and embellishments and rolls up to the table when she's ready to work.
Paint, lots and lots of paint. This Apple Barrel paint set comes in a variety of colors and works on so many surfaces, every crafty girl needs basic craft paint on hand.
Of course to go with that paint she needs brushes.
For the crafty girl who is lucky enough to have a craft room, treat her to the craft table of her dreams. This baby has a place for everything and a big work surface to lay it all out. What I wouldn't give to have this in my craft room!
Even with an electronic cutter I use my paper punches quite often. This set of circles is heavy duty and easy to use, no computer and no setup required. Her craft possibilities are endless with this set.
Colorful and fun ribbon is great for the crafty girl who makes hair pretties or fun banners. A set like this will come in handy for scrapbooks, gifts and cards too.
A sewing machine like this one is a great starter machine for the crafty girl who wants to start sewing (ahem, me!). Be sure to set her up with some lessons too so she can expand her horizons.
And finally, something pretty for the office. I love metallics and these gold pieces are stunning. I would love to situate these on that craft table above and so would just about any crafty girl out there.
These fabulous gift ideas will make any crafty girl happy, and she'll probably make you something too!
What will you be getting the crafty girl on your list this year?
Thanks for visiting!

If you wish to avoid or manage a common infection called oral thrush, you have actually got another reason to visit your dental professional, particularly if you have diabetes, use dentures or have a problem with your body immune system.
What Causes Oral (Fungal) Infection?
Likewise called candidiasis, the fungal infection causes painful white spots on the tongue or inner cheeks. The lesions may bleed a little when scraped or when you brush your teeth. Often oral thrush infect the roof of the mouth, gums, tonsils or the back of the throat.
The Candida fungus albicans fungus causes oral thrush. A percentage of this fungus typically lives in your mouth without triggering damage. Nevertheless, when the fungus begins to grow frantically, an infection can develop in your mouth.
It's common amongst denture wearers and frequently occurs in people who are very young, elderly, debilitated by disease, or who have body immune system disorders. Individuals who have dry mouth syndrome are also more vulnerable to candidiasis. Candida fungus might also thrive after antibiotic treatment, which can decrease typical bacteria in the mouth.
Symptoms of Fungus in Mouth
Symptoms of fungal infection in mouth can consist of:
- white spots (plaques) in the mouth that can often be wiped off, leaving red areas that may bleed somewhat
loss of taste or an undesirable taste in the mouth
- inflammation inside the mouth and throat
- fractures at the corners of the mouth
- a painful, burning experience in the mouth
In many cases, the symptoms of oral infection can make eating and drinking hard.
How to Prevent Fungus in Mouth?
For the majority of people, control concentrates on preventing the conditions that caused the break out. Excellent oral health is essential. Teeth should be brushed and flossed as frequently as your dental practitioner advises. Dentures need to be eliminated and cleaned up prior to bedtime.
If you're a healthy grownup with oral thrush, you may have the ability to control the infection by eating unsweetened yogurt or taking acidophilus pills or liquid. Acidophilus is available in healthy food shops and lots of pharmacies. Some brands have to be refrigerated to preserve their potency. Yogurt and acidophilus don't ruin the fungus, but they can help restore the normal bacterial flora in your body. If this isn't reliable, your doctor or dentist may recommend an antifungal medication.
The following steps might help reduce your risk of developing oral thrush or other Yeast infections:
- Use yogurt or acidophilus pills when you take antibiotics.
- If you smoke, ask your doctor about the best ways to stop.
- See your dental expert regularly– at least every six to 12 months– particularly if you have diabetes or wear dentures. Brush and floss your teeth as often as your dentist suggests.
- Try restricting the quantity of sugar and yeast-containing foods you eat, including bread, beer and wine. These might motivate the growth of Candida.

Not the best place in Skipton. This 'sport' bar is very much aimed at the generic drinker so beloved of advertising companies. At the moment its all World Cupped up with beer promotions galore advertised. Keg fizzpops on offer during the Saudi Arabia v Iran game would be on offer should they play each other, possibly. Much much better places in Skipton so go there.

Does what is says on the tin. It's open plan modern inside a stone skin. The counter is along the back wall with a pool table tucked in at one end. 16 keg founts in two banks, most are doubled up and all are national/ euro fizz brands. There's a solitary hand pull probably fortunately unused as it's not a cask beer kind of place. No music when I dropped in but all five big screens and the two small ones were in operation. There's also a dart board and a couple of machines for amusement. Seating on half round leather armchairs at glass topped tables or if you prefer at garden style tables and Chairs. There's something upstairs but I didn't look.
