That's your hairstyle inspo for the next week, sorted!
Woohoo! It's Friiiiiday! You've made it! And it's a long weekend! Which means party time right? You've put yourself through enough this week, and that includes your hair but don't worry, we've found seven ways you can work a ponytail so that will take you until your next hair wash and over the Bank Holiday weekend! Result!
Friday – The plaited pony – Gather your hair into a super high pony, cover the band like in Wednesday's style but then split the ends into two. Braid each one of these separately and secure, finish with a spritz of hairspray.
Bumble & Bumble BB Thickening Hairspray £22
Saturday – The wrapped pony – You'll need some string or thick thread for this one but it makes the prefect party style. Firstly create a low pony, then simply wrap your thread of choice round and round to make a cuff effect, tie the ends together and hide any loose thread. Smooth polishing balm through the ends of your hair for serious shine!
Philip Kingsley Prep Polishing Balm £18.50
Sunday – The bow pony – Probably the easiest style to recreate at home, use a smoothing blow dry lotion to protect locks before you dry. Pull your hair into a low pony at the back of your head, secure and add a huge bow with ribbon!

Monday – The side pony – This style works best with a side parting, so if you don't have one, blow dry your hair into shape, then gather into a low side pony and secure. Use a conditioning treatment once a week to restore any heat damaged hair.
Andrew Barton S.O.S Hair Repair Treatment Mask £1
Tuesday – The backcombed pony – You need a bit of texture for this style to hold, use curl cream to minimize frizz then pull your hair into a low pony. Backcomb the back section of hair slightly to create some height then smooth over with a comb.
Boucleme Curl cream £9.50
Wednesday – The high pony – Prep hair with a sea-salt spray to add texture and waves to the ends. Create a ponytail high up on your head and secure with a band. Take a small section of hair and wrap it round and round the band to cover it, clip the end underneath and secure with a Kirby grip.
TIGI Bed Head Queen Beach Salt Infused Texture Spray £16.25
Thursday – The bubble pony – Try this look on hair that hasn't been washed for a few days, dry shampoo will give your hair a lift if it needs it. Simply put your hair into a ponytail, secure then keep adding hair bands and pushing the sections up to create bubble shapes – add as many as you like!
Batiste 2 in 1 Invisible Dry Shampoo & Conditioner £4.49

Exact P-values for Network Interference
, ,
NBER Working Paper No. 21313
We study the calculation of exact p-values for a large class of non-sharp null hypotheses about treatment effects in a setting with data from experiments involving members of a single connected network. The class includes null hypotheses that limit the effect of one unit's treatment status on another according to the distance between units; for example, the hypothesis might specify that the treatment status of immediate neighbors has no effect, or that units more than two edges away have no effect. We also consider hypotheses concerning the validity of sparsification of a network (for example based on the strength of ties) and hypotheses restricting heterogeneity in peer effects (so that, for example, only the number or fraction treated among neighboring units matters). Our general approach is to define an artificial experiment, such that the null hypothesis that was not sharp for the original experiment is sharp for the artificial experiment, and such that the randomization analysis for the artificial experiment is validated by the design of the original experiment.

This is a delicious creamy 5-ingredient sauce you can drizzle on just about anything! From tacos, to pasta, to using it as a dip!
Place pepper and jalapeno halves, skin side up, on a foil-lined baking sheet. Flatted the pepper halves with your hand.
Tuck the whole peeled garlic cloves under one of the red bell peppers to keep them from burning.
Broil for 10-12 minutes or until the red bell peppers are charred and blackened.
Remove from oven and instantly place only the red bell peppers in a bowl and cover with a kitchen towel to seal. Let it sit for 10 minutes. Once cool, remove and peel the outer skin off.
Add the roasted red bell peppers, garlic cloves, jalapenos to a blender (I used my Vitamix) along with the remaining ingredients and puree until completely smooth. The exact amount of lemon juice depends on it's acidity, so season to taste with additional salt and/or lemon juice if needed.
Each serving is about 1/2 cup of sauce.
Jalapenos - add more or less jalapenos depending on your level of spice. This sauce will still taste great even if you omit the jalapenos completely. Alternatively you can simply take some of the sauce out before blending in the jalapenos if you want both versions of the sauce.
Cashews - If you are using a powerful blender such as a Vitamix, you do not need to pre-soak the cashews. Just be sure to completely puree into a smooth sauce.
I like adding in the Apple Cider Vinegar but in case you don't have any, additional fresh lemon juice will work just fine.
If you're planning on freezing this sauce, you may need to quickly re-blend after defrosting prior to using to smooth out the sauce again.

US regulator : Cryptocurrencies is the Risk for Credit Union
The US federal agency that manages the nation's credit union industry incorporated a comment on the conceivable risks and advantages of cryptocurrencies in a recently discharged procedure design.
Distributed yesterday, the 2018-2022 Draft Methodology Design to a great extent concentrates on the financial patterns that will shape US credit unions, and in addition the arrangement suggestions that may happen subsequently. The developing utilization of fintech implies that "credit unions are probably going to confront a scope of difficulties" from organizations that are propelling items and administrations here.
As indicated by the content, the potential for the more extensive utilization of cryptocurrencies is refered to as one of the innovation factors that could drive change in the way that credit unions work together.
"The emergence and the increasing importance of digital currencies predicted by many analysts may pose both risks and opportunities to consumers, credit unions, banks and financial regulators," the report's authors state, adding later: "These trends are likely to continue, and even accelerate, through 2022."
Despite the fact that the draft doesn't specify it, various credit unions in the US have officially advanced toward investigating how they can apply the innovation that underlies cryptocurrencies like bitcoin to their own particular operations.
A year ago, a gathering of establishments divulged the CU Record venture, went for making new administrations based over the tech. What's more, quite recently a month ago, the consortium of more than 50 credit unions uncovered their arrangement to make a credit union administration association, or CUSO, and have since been looking for financial specialists for the wander.

"Come on!" she yelled, as she grabbed my arm and started to pull me out the door. I didn't questioned what she was up to, but this seemed awfully strange of her.
"What? Why? What's going on?" I asked her while we were running down the hallway.
"You're getting adopted!" Wait a second... What? I was getting adopted? But... Who would want a girl like me as their daughter? There were much prettier girls in this building. But no, I was being picked, over thousands of millions of girls. What an honour... -__-
I really didn't want to leave Yujin. We've been best friends for as long as I can remember. I desperately wanted to take her with me. But I couldn't... She sobbed as I hugged her goodbye. I wanted to cry too, but since I was older - just by a few months - I wanted to set a good example for her.
When we finally arrived at the front end of the building, where anyone who was adopted would leave, I saw a young couple. They looked like they were in their mid-twenties. I certainly wouldn't mind living with them... The lady looked nice and loving, so did the man, but he looked like he had a snitch of....what could I say...evil..? But I wouldn't care, I had a family. I would finally have a family.
"Don't cry… You'll make your beautiful eyes puffy and swollen. You don't want that do you?" I stroke her hair as I hugged her. She giggled and was only crying softly by now. "I guess.. *sniffle*...not..." she said, the sadness still in her voice.
"I promise you we'll see each other again, someday! Even if I have to go all the way across the world, I'll find you and we'll be together again," I smiled as I looked into her dark green orbs. She nodded and hugged me one last time.
"Goodbye Chae-unnie*~" Yujin gave me her brightest smile and did a little wave, even though I was right in front of her. "Goodbye my Yujinnie~" I returned the smile she gave me and started to back away, waving.
That was the last time I ever saw Yujin, my bestest friend ever, in my life.
- -unnie: someone who is older than you, like an older sister; used between girls.

It has been a LONG time since I have blogged and I have REALLY missed it. I am excited that things have changed enough in my life that I feel I have some time to recommit to posting again. Hip Hip Horray!
Obviously in the seven months or so since I have been here a lot has happened but I'm not going to go back and try to recap everything for you. Instead, as I move forward I will share some exciting things that have happened.
Last year I was able to experience one of my life dreams and that was to attend a tattoo convention! I loved every single minute of it and I look forward to attending many more in the future and continuing to expand my collection of tattoos from artists I love (and follow on instagram!) I was tattooed at the Calgary Convention by Ben Merrell from Tribal Rites in Fort Collins, Colorado. It was a most excellent experience.
Here are some photos :

Against the backdrop of a meeting of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) in Beijing that assessed Islamabad's efforts to counter terror financing, China on Thursday said its close ally Pakistan has made "visible progress" and should be backed by the world community.India's external affairs ministry declined to comment on the working of the multilateral watchdog, citing the confidentiality of its working, though spokesperson Raveesh Kumar noted that the FATF's last plenary meeting in October had expressed "very serious concern" at Pakistan's overall lack of progress in implementing an action plan.Reports from Islamabad said a Pakistani delegation led by economic affairs minister Hammad Azhar had defended the country's efforts to comply with the action plan at the meeting of FATF's Asia Pacific Joint Group in Beijing even as the country sought to gain more time to fully implement the plan.Pakistan was placed in FATF's "grey list" in 2018 for not doing enough to counter the raising of funds by al-Qaeda, Taliban, Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed. Since then, it has missed several deadlines to implement the action plan. FATF's next plenary meeting, to be held in Paris from February 16, will decide whether to retain Pakistan in the grey list or move it to the "black list", which will entail harsher sanctions.Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Geng Shuang told a news briefing on Thursday he wasn't aware of the details of the FATF meeting but added: "Pakistan has made all-out efforts to strengthen the domestic counter-terror financing regime with visible progress. Its political will and active efforts should be recognised and encouraged by the international community."We hope FATF will offer Pakistan constructive support and assistance in its continued efforts to improve its counter-terrorism financing system and effectively fight terrorist financing."China is the current president of FATF and co-chair of the Asia Pacific Joint Group. Geng added China will continue to uphold an impartial and constructive attitude in discussions.In New Delhi, external affairs ministry spokesperson Kumar said India presumes that FATF will evaluate Pakistan's progress on the basis of set criteria. "You may recall that at the last plenary meeting in Paris in October, the body had expressed very serious concerns with the overall lack of progress by Pakistan to address its terror financing risks," he said.People familiar with developments said Pakistan is backing on support from China, Malaysia and Turkey to stymie any possible move to put it in the black list. The most likely outcome of the upcoming Paris meeting will be that Pakistan will remain in the grey list for at least another six months, they said.

Today I bring you a guest post from L.L. Barkat. L.L is a talented poet, artist, and writer. Her post explores the plight of vulnerable and forgotten girls.
Sixty to one-hundred million women are "missing" from the world's population. Among the living, many are oppressed.
I will never forget a picture I once saw in the New York Times magazine, of girls in a window display. Each girl had a number pinned to her clothing.
They were so young, and despite that they would be "otherwise engaged" throughout the day and night, they were sitting simply. One was combing the long black hair of another, like any young girl playing with friends. But this was no house of play.
Today, reading Forgotten Girls, I was taken by the invitation to write a poem from an oppressed girl's point of view, a girl who knows not love… and almost certainly not God's love.
As I began to write, I remembered the girls in the window…
"Number 100 Million and One"
I am the girl in the window
combing her hair twined and black
smiling so no one will know
there's a scar on my heart that grows
in the night, when I lie on my back
I am the girl in the window
crimsoned with memories of low
men and high, bright keepers who track,
smiling so no one will know
even the wind, when it whispers and blows
disperses my secrets beyond the black
I am the girl in the window
beseeching the stars to silently show
a hidden path past wall's slim crack
smiling so no one will know
the shush of my soul as it ebbs and it flows
searches for red silken ribbon gone slack
I am the girl in the window,
smiling so no one will know.

L. L. Barkat is the author of Rumors of Water: Thoughts on Creativity and Writing, as well as two spiritual memoirs and a book of poetry. She is Managing Editor for TheHighCalling.org and Staff Writer for International Arts Movement's The Curator.

And what alarms "the establishment leaders of both parties" is not Trump's personality, but his forceful dissent from globalism and praise for policies those establishment leaders have long dismissed as relics from "50 years back" or even "the 19th century." But what the upholders of the establishment consensus have not fully reckoned with is that the only reason Americans began listening to Donald Trump is because the globalism that leaders of both parties have offered voters for so long has been a disaster for much of America and many Americans.[1]This is an insightful observation. Mr. Piatak also reports on some of Bush '43s recently expressed views which reveal him a a globalist putz, absolutely clueless about the land whose president he was for eight too-long years.

Industry Advisory Council (IAC), held a closed-door Roundtable with Secretary MNRE, Mr. Anand Kumar, on Tuesday, August 28th. This Exclusive Roundtable with MNRE Secretary Anand Kumar was a follow-up action to USAID / IAC's meeting with him on August 10.
The purpose of the Round table was to introduce IAC member companies and their capabilities to MNRE Secretary so that he is aware of IAC's value proposition and our strengths in the field of grid integration. The Roundtable was also an opportunity for Secretary to introduce IAC to his team and share MNRE's current priorities with IAC membership.
The Roundtable also helped individual member companies to consolidate their business relationship with MNRE and a few of them stayed back after the Roundtable for immediate one-on-one meetings with the Secretary and his team. Both existing members and strong prospects were invited for the RT to demonstrate IAC's convening power at the highest levels in the government.

Giving Characters Unique Voices
By Elle Hill
Imagine a scene in your book in which an inspector asks three different characters the same question: "Were you there last night?"
As authors, our job is to make each character's voice distinctive enough that adding "Jose said" or "Jae Lin replied" becomes all but redundant. Not just with words that reflect our characters' . . .

My husbands surgery went well. Except for the first night we spent in the ER. I hate that they send you home right away after surgery. In my experience it never works out well. I have returned to the ER too many times after out patient surgery. So we spent 4 hours in the ER that first night. Didn't get home until 4AM. Brutal.
But he is healing up well now. And now my mom is in the hospital. So I am off to Boston on Wednesday to see her. I have to go alone since my husband can't fly yet. I am not bringing much so I should be OK in putting my bag in the overhead bin. I never check luggage. I have had them lost before and it was not good!
It has been a brutal week for the most part. A lot going on here. The upstairs unit in my building above us had a burst water heater which rained down on us. Lots of damage to our water heater room. We were lucky that we were here and noticed the water dripping. The damage could have been much worse.
Also, my friend and neighbor is losing her very short battle with cancer. I have only known her for a little over a year but we grew close and she is an artist too. It is all happening so fast. She is in hospice now. Days I have been told.
Enjoy your life. It is short.

LAST CHANCE to see 'Galway GAA: The Three-in-a-Row, 1964-66' before we take it down this Easter....that's ONE WEEK ONLY to see this exhibition in all its glory! The exhibition tells the story of a very significant chapter in Galway's sporting history. Between 1964 and 1966, Galway won the All-Ireland Football Final, beating Kerry in 1964 and 1965 and Meath in 1966, in what became known as the 'Three-in-a-Row'. The collection, includes team member, Pat Donnellan's medals from 1964-66, the football from the 1966 Final signed by the team members and Pat's jersey from the 1966 game. We are very grateful to the Donnellan family for this very generous donation to the Galway City Museum collection. Watch out for two brand new exhibitions on the Claddagh and Gaelic Ireland coming real soon. For more information on exhibitions and events or to browse the collection visitwww.galwaycitymuseum.ie. The museum is open Tuesday to Saturday, 10am-5pm. Admission is FREE. __ Photos: Marta Barcikowska #galwaycitymuseum #galwaycitycouncil #galway #museum #galwaygaa #galwaythreeinarow #gaafootball
4. Galway Cathedral
Overlooking the River Corrib, this Renaissance-style cathedral contains some of the finest architecture in Ireland.
A summer concert series takes place from July until August but any time of the year, seeing the cathedral's aesthetic beauty is worth passing a bit of time.
5. Check out some trad
If Galway is known for anything, it's the craic and the ceol in its many pubs.
Wherever you end up, the sound of an accordion and a tin whistle is never far away. An Púcán, Tigh Neachtains, Tigh Coili and Taaffes are all great places to start but the city has a plethora of other options that will keep you entertained until the sun comes out.

Adulting Tip #1: Get a Will.
Why you need Estate Planning
Death and taxes. This cliché is as true today as it ever has been. Yet, according to the AARP1, only about 40% of us have made plans for when we pass on. The top reason Americans give for not having a will? They haven't gotten around to it yet. While this is understandable, you should be aware that if you die without a will, your loved ones will likely suffer the consequences.
Protect Your Loved Ones
First, when you die without a will in the state of Arizona (Intestacy), a judge will make all the decisions about your assets regardless of your wishes. In all likelihood, your assets will be auctioned or sold to pay off your creditors. In some situations, creditors may even be able to go after your spouse or your children's assets to pay for your debts. Funeral costs can be extremely expensive and you can be sure that a funeral director's first move is to get as much as your remaining assets as possible to pay for that solid cherry wood casket.
Preserve Family Relationships
Next, even the part of your assets that remain in your loved ones' possession may create significant hardship if they are not carefully distributed. The death of a loved one should have a unifying effect and should be a time for love and reflection. However, if your will is not set out clearly, your loved ones may be tempted to fight over your assets. In my experience, this has unnecessarily torn many families apart.
A Personal Story:
I once met with a son whose dad had just passed away. He explained to me that while his dad had a will, it stated that his gun collection should be distributed "equally" among his children. Unfortunately, because this will was poorly written, the children had been fighting for years over the meaning of the word "equally." As most gun owners know, each firearm in a collection is unique and distributing them equally is not just a matter of dividing the amount of guns in equal amounts. Fortunately, in this case we were able to find a good solution. However, most stories do not end so well when careful estate planning is omitted.
Avoid a Tax Burden
Finally, when your loved ones receive an inheritance, they may be liable to pay taxes on this gift. In some cases, the family member or loved one may not even be able to afford receiving his or her inheritance because he or she cannot pay the tax burden attached to the item. The current administration has promised to curtail the "death tax" but as of when this article was written, there are still tax ramifications attached to inheritances. With careful planning, those tax ramifications can be avoided altogether.
Save Time & Avoid Stress
A basic will is not very expensive anymore. It can save you and your loved ones money, anxiety, and time. When you are planning for your family's future, step number one should be a basic will. While a will is not the only thing you need to protect your assets, it is the first and most important step you should take in estate planning. Speak to one of our attorneys today to make sure that your will reflects your needs accurately.Call Us Today
Six Reasons Why you need Estate Planning:
- Make your own choices and avoid Probate
- Protect your family's well-being by protecting your assets
- Preserve family relationships and avoid uncertainty
- Avoid a tax burden on your loved ones
- Save time and be prepared by taking care of things in advance
- Avoid undue stress on spouse and children during difficult times

Future Outlook of the Construction Industry in UK
The building and construction industry in the UK consists of numerous market segments such as residential, manufacturing and infrastructure. Employing about 2.1 million workers (about 7% of the entire workforce) and generating about 6% of the national GDP, the construction industry is hugely influential to the economic well-being of the country.
The U.K. construction industry has recovered quite well following the massive downturn experienced in the wake of the global recession between 2007 and 2009 caused by the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis. At the time, the industry's gross value added (GVA) contribution hovered between £59.6 billion and £75.8 billion - almost half of the current figure. However, there are concerns about the effect of Brexit on the industry.
Industry analysts fear that post-Brexit, the industry could lose about 200,000 skilled EU workers as the country loses access to the single European market. EU nationals currently make up about 8% (176,500) of the total workforce employed by the industry. As it now, the industry is already strained by a shortage of skilled workers who have yet to be added to the Home Office's 'UK Shortage Occupations List', which would allow expedited processing of work permits. The impending absence of skilled EU workers could seriously jeopardise projects worth about $500 billion already in the pipeline.
Despite this, the industry is faring surprisingly well in the first half of 2017, even if the economic output dropped by 0.2% compared to last year. In a statement, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said that private commercial contracts are the prime drivers for the industry. This had led to a bullish outlook among many industry observers who believe that the industry is capable of weathering the Brexit economic storm and skilled labour crisis.
The presence of relatively untapped markets in Scotland and Wales also bodes well for the long-term wellbeing of the construction industry in UK.

English actress Ruth Wilson suggested this week that actresses are getting screwed by a new type of inequality in Hollywood — one that puts too much emphasis on the female "orgasm face."
Wilson, who won a Golden Globe award for her role in The Affair, opened up about her problems with "getting down" on television to The Edit magazine.
"Why have I got to do the orgasm face? There should be a male orgasm face. Why is it always the woman?" she asked about presentation of sex on screen.
Wilson also finds it unnecessary and unfair that women have to provide the "titillation" because men are not allowed to expose their penises.
"It's assumed that women will get their breasts out and have to get their breasts out and I balk at that," she said
Furthermore, Wilson holds a brief with her male counterpart Dominic West prior to each sex scene to ensure their body language corresponds with the narrative.
"So for Dominic and myself, every time it came up we asked, 'Do we need this? What are we saying with it?" she explained.
Though the actress moaned about her problems with televised orgasms, she seems to be proud of her work.
"It's hard to make good sex scenes work. There are so many crap ones out there," she finished.

Call us today to be given a free quote, have your roof inspected, or learn more about the services we offer!
Asphalt roof shingles are the most popular and inexpensive sort of residential roofing material. They are available in many distinct colours and styles. They are also fairly durable; lots of asphalt roof shingles now carry a 130 mph wind rating and come with guarantees of up to 50 decades.
Asphalt roof shingles are made from ceramic infused with asphalt. The granules offer shade, UV protection, and algae immunity. They are available in many diverse styles, the two most common of them being three-tab and architectural roof shingles.
They typically take a 60 mph wind rating and as much as a 25 year warranty. Due to the horizontal silhouette of a 3 tab roof shingle and its ability to shed water fast, 3-tabs are frequently the most acceptable for lower pitched roofs in Georgia. Architectural roofing shingles also called dimensional, laminated or composite shingles, have a milder base mat with many layers of added material. Architectural shingles continue to a 130 mph wind rating as well as 50 year guarantees. The two kinds are distinct aesthetically and a lot of women and men favor the architectural shingles, which also weigh about 50 percent over the three tab shingles. This makes them last more than the three tab kind of shingle.
Kirkwood Roof Repair is a licensed licensed roof shingle applicator to all significant shingle manufacturers.
The most notable quality of concrete and clay roof tiles is that they endure a few of nature's hardest weather, including wind, rain, hail, earthquakes in addition to fire pit. On most applications, Kirkwood Roof Repair used Polyfoam Adhesive to adhere tile into roof decks. Polyfoam provides the ideal performance in hurricanes and adds a degree of insulation for energy efficiency.
Since tiles are set up separately, the airspace around them creates natural ventilation which offers a thermal barrier out of heat transfer to the roof deck. This provides energy savings by reducing the peak load demand by different hours, which directly affects structures in both cold and hot climates.
Concrete and clay roof tiles can be located within an amazingly huge collection of finishes and colors, which vary from 1 color to a matrix of up to five colors. Which range from flat to barrel-shaped, and supplying striking differences in design, concrete tiles can simulate traditional clay tiles, wood shake, slate and stone. A great deal of men and women prefer tile due to its unmatched beauty, versatility and security. Additionally it's very economical because of its lifespan of 50 — 100 years or more.
Tile roofs are also simple to fix and require limited maintenance, which is more typically restricted to the roof gutters, flashings and ventilation in connection to the tile itself. Furthermore, because clay and concrete tile do not deplete natural resources since they are made from naturally occurring materials, they are precious as green, sustainable, and environmentally friendly. Ask Kirkwood Roofing around tile roof to your next roofing project.
One of the fastest growing sections of the roofing industry, metal roofing is growing in popularity everywhere due to its many favorable qualities — it's long lasting, energy efficient, and safer than other kinds of roofs. This also suggests that in certain areas, metal roofing can lessen the homeowner's insurance premiums significantly.
Elegance and beauty aren't qualities which people are accustomed to attributing to metal roofs, but during time, technology has combined what's been outstanding durability with modern elegance and beauty as a result of awesome capability to replicate such roof fashions as Spanish tile, wood shake and slate. Architectural designs also have standing seam and stone coated metal roofs.
Even though the initial investment is higher, metal roofing saves money in the long run. Furthermore, metal can be made to seem like virtually any roof materials. Unlike other forms of roof materials, such as aluminum, asphalt roofing does not absorb warmth; it reflects heat, making it incredibly energy efficient. In addition, metal roofing is very wind resistant, does not crack, peal, break or rust. Metal roof is incredibly lightweight, and doesn't stain or leak.
There are plenty of myths about metal roofing which will have to be dispelled. By means of instance, metal roofing does not increase the odds of lighting striking your dwelling. It truly disperses the energy during the construction. It isn't noisy as it's installed with solid sheathing, which silences rain, hail and other bad weather. The coatings in metal roof stop rusting and accept long-term paint colors. Supplying a 150 mph wind rating, it will not dent.
Your office is the lifeblood of your business. Occasionally it can be easy to forget about the condition of your company's roof. Over the span of time, your roofing requires a beating from Kirkwood's harsh, cold climate, torrential rain and wind. But whenever your office building's roof is leaking, it can make life miserable for everyone. Employee moral goes down and so does production, which impacts your bottom line. Kirkwood Roof Repair can offer commercial roof repair in Kirkwood regardless of how large or small the job.

Rejuvenated Stem Cells Offer Clues to Aging
Scientists at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center (US) and the Ulm University Medicine in Germany reported their findings online May 3 in Cell Stem Cell. The study counters what used to be broad consensus that the aging of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) was locked in by nature and not reversible by therapeutic intervention.
HSCs originate in the bone marrow and generate all of the body's red and white blood cells and platelets. As aging occurs, HSCs become more numerous but less effective at regenerating blood cells and immune cells. This makes older people more susceptible to infections and disease, including leukemia.
Researchers in the current study determined a protein that regulates cell signaling - Cdc42 - also controls a molecular process that causes HSCs from mice to age. Pharmacologic inhibition of Cdc42 reversed HSC aging and restored function similar to that of younger stem cells, explained Hartmut Geiger, PhD, the study's principal investigator.
"Aging is interesting, in part because we still don't understand how we age," Geiger said. "Our findings suggest a novel and important role for Cdc42 and identify its activity as a target for ameliorating natural HSC aging. We know the aging of HSCs reduces in part the response of the immune system response in older people, which contributes to diseases such as anemia, and may be the cause of tissue attrition in certain systems of the body."
The findings are early and involve laboratory manipulation of mouse cells, so it remains to any direct application to humans is uncertain. Still, the study expands what is known about the basic molecular and cellular mechanisms of aging - a necessary step to designing rational approaches to aiding a healthy aging process.
Researchers next plan to test the Cdc42 inhibitor CASIN in mice to see how HSCs and various tissues in the laboratory models respond. In particular, they are testing red blood cell production, endurance and immune response in the mice. The team is also acquiring samples of human HSCs to see how those cells respond in laboratory tests to Cdc42 expression.

I'm so sorry, Stephanie Meyer.
Last night my roommies and I went to a private screening of Twilight. (I know! I know! I hated all the hype. I disliked the books. I stoutly refused to get involved in the craze. And yet, there I was at the Gateway last night.)
After the movie I gave Liz my concise Twilight review: I think the only thing more painful than an actual vampire bite is watching that movie.
Guys, it was so bad. Ridiculously bad. It was reminiscent of a Provo-style, made-for-BYU-film-class type movie. (Sorry to everyone who made a movie for a BYU film class. I'm sure it was great!) Britni and I irritated all the enraptured girls sitting around us because we physically could not stem our laughter after the first 20 minutes. During the closing credits, when I audibly wondered that the movie could possibly be any worse than the books, I was struck with a death glare from a middle-aged woman seated nearby. Seriously, I think there are people who really believe that Twilight is the single greatest love story of our time. Like our generation's Romeo & Juliet or Pride & Prejudice.
People, this has got to stop. Let's be clear. As a fantasy-based, chick-lit book directed at the tween-to-teen crowd, it works. Not great, but it works. And the movie, as a low-budget (I don't really know if it was low-budget or not, but I can hope) movie, again directed at the teenage audience, it was fine. Like a made-for-Disney-channel movie. In fact, if it was on TV on a Saturday afternoon, I'd probably watch it (or at least Tivo it).
But ladies, it's not the greatest book or movie of our time. Not by a long shot. Let's, as a society, move on.
Dear Stephanie Meyer,
I'm sorry I didn't like your books. From their wild popularity, it's evident I am on the smaller end of the spectrum. I know the exhaustive effort of writing, the laborious task of taking the swirling words and images in your head and forcing them into structure and sense. I know the feeling of proffering your written work to someone, exposing not a completed task but a part of your very heart, your baby. You are absolutely not devoid of talent; I liked that other book you wrote, the one about the aliens. That was pretty interesting. Don't take me seriously. I don't like reading Faulkner either, and he was a freakin' genius or something.
P.S. How old is that guy who played Edward? Is he at least 21? Basically I'm asking if it's okay for me to be lusting after him. He's not one of those 17-year-old prodigies is he? Cause, gross.

Uhh, Amy?
I'm still waiting for your comment.
My sister told me that this post sounded really pretentious. I told her to be a man and leave me a comment telling me so.
Still waiting for it.

Thanks for breaking our blood-oath of secrecy. ;) I can't trust you to accompany me on anymore embarrassing outings. Friday night is canceled!
...maybe in all fairness I'll go and see it again without screaming idiots in the crowd and with a solemn promise not to giggle uncontrollably at the music or the seizures in the science lab or the...you get the point. ;)

exactly! We should try one sometime. They looked so good you want to get the very last drop! and apparently vampires look nauseated at the scent of blood, not hungry. I can't believe you didn't mention why you would want to be turned into a vampire...what did you say it looked like was happening after they were bitten? ;) naughty!

The promise made by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) in Qur'an "We have, Without doubt, sent down the message: and we will assuredly guard it (from corruption)." Qur'an.Surah Hijr 15:9 It is obviously fulfilled in the undisputed purity of the Qur'anic text throughout the fourteen centuries since its revelation. However, what is often forgotten by many Muslims is that the divine promise also includes, by necessity, the Sunnah of the Prophet (Sallalaahu Ala'hi wa Sallam), because the Sunnah is the practical example of the implementation of the Qur'anic guidance, the wisdom taught to the Prophet (Sallalaahu Ala'hi wa Sallam) along with the scripture, and neither the Qur'an nor the Sunnah can be understood correctly without the other.
Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) preserved the Sunnah by enabling the companions and those after them to memorize, write down and pass on the statements of the Prophet (Sallalaahu Ala'hi wa Sallam), and the descriptions of his way, as well as to continue the blessings of practicing the Sunnah.
Later, as the purity of the knowledge of the Sunnah became threatened, Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) caused the Muslim Ummah to produce individuals with exceptional memory skills and analytical expertise, who travelled tirelessly to collect thousands of narrations and distinguish the true words of prophetic wisdom from those corrupted by weak memories, from forgeries by unscrupulous liars, and from the statements of the large number of Ulama (scholars), the companions and those who followed their way. All of this was achieved through precise attention to the words narrated, and detailed familiarity with the biographies of the thousands of reporters of hadith.
The methodology of the expert scholars of hadith in assessing the narrations and sorting out the genuine from the mistaken and fabricated, forms the subject matter of the science of hadith. In this article a brief discussion is given of the terminology and classifications of hadith.
Components of Hadith
A hadith is composed of three parts (see the figure [below]):
Matn(text), isnad (chain of reporters), and taraf (the part, or the beginning sentence, of the text which refers to the sayings, actions or characteristics of the Prophet (Sallalaahu Ala'hi wa Sallam), or his concurrence with others action). The authenticity of the hadith depends on the reliability of its reporters, and the linkage among them.
Classifications of Hadith
A number of classifications of hadith have been made. Five of these classifications are shown in the figure [below], and are briefly described subsequently.
1. According to the reference to a particular authority
Four types of hadith can be identified.
2. According to the links of Isnad - interrupted or uninterrupted
Six categories can be identified.
3. According to the number of reporters involved in each stage of Isnad
Five categories of hadith can be identified:
4. According to the nature of the text and isnad
5. According to the reliability and memory of the reporters
This provides the final verdict on a hadith - four categories can be identified:
From al-Irbaad ibn Saariyah [radiy'Allaahu anhu] who said:
Allah's Messenger (S) gave us an admonition which caused the eyes to shed tears and the hearts to fear, so we said, "O Messenger of Allah, this is as if it were a farewell sermon, so with what do you counsel us?" So he said: "I have left you upon clear proof , its night is like its day, no one deviates from it except one who is destroyed, and whoever lives long from amongst you will see great controversy. So stick to what you know from my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the orthodox, rightly-guided caliphs - cling to that with your molar teeth, and stick to obedience even if it is to an Abyssinian slave, since the believer is like a submissive camel, wherever he is led, he follows" Musnad Ahmad 4/126, Ibn Maajah 43, Sahih Al Jam'ee 4369, al-Haakim (1/96) and others - Hasan

Advanced modular palletized workholding technologies take the headache out of machine setups. These systems revolutionize the alignment process, may reduce setup times by as much as 90 percent, and provide safe clamping forces as well as tighter tolerances and higher transfer repeatability.
One such high-tech modular clamping solution is the Power Grip Zero Point Clamping System, from RÖHM Products of America, that uses a single locating point in the center of the base unit as the absolute zero reference point for the whole system. This center position always remains constant, and even remains unaffected by thermal deviations. This system also has multiple power clamp units (usually as many as four), however, with each power clamp unit the location is set at the time the system is manufactured, again, based on the zero-point center retention principle.
Featured Content
Conventional pallet systems, on the other hand, set their system zero point fixed at one of their multiple power clamp positions. This setup references dimensions from the zero holder to the other power clamp positions as well as to the center of the pallet itself. Such systems are susceptible to location errors when exposed to thermal deflections.
Conversely, shops can easily align zero-point clamping systems because once the base holder is set and located on the machine tool, the system is ready.
In addition to hassle-free part location, the Power Grip Zero Point Clamping System self-centers for fast and accurate loading. Pallets can be as much 2 mm off center from the base unit, and the system will still locate and clamp the pallet properly. These systems are also self-balancing to further enhance accuracy and precision, making them highly suitable for automation-integrated handling.
One of the major advantages of advanced zero-point clamping solutions is the tremendous force that secures each clamping unit. On that system, pneumatics in each clamping unit secure the pallet to the base with as much as 1,700 daN (3,740 lbf) without re-clamping, and with as much as 2,800 daN (6,160 lbf) at 6 bar of air pressure with re-clamping, per each clamping unit. This equates to a total of more than 11 tons, or 26,640 lbf of clamping force to hold down the 4-clamp pallet.
With all that force securing the pallet, these systems are well suited for very tight tolerance applications that demand a high degree of repeatability. For instance, a milling machine equipped with a zero-point clamping system will produce parts with as little as 2 µm of transfer location repeatability through 750,000 clamping cycles, air-cushioned with conical centering and a leveling system.
Pallets of all types expand and contract during use due to temperature shifts. However, with one zero point, advanced pallet solutions maintain their position throughout machining, which means that workpieces are free from the errors that would otherwise occur due to incorrect offsets.
In conventional systems, the occurrence of thermal expansion can throw off the zero points for the holder positions and the pallet itself. A central zero point, on the other hand, stabilizes the pallet and eliminates errors caused by thermal changes.
Base units of zero-point clamping systems are typically carriers that get bolted on to a machine's standard table or rotary table or directly on a turning machine's spindle for applications as high as 6,000 rpm. Four clamping units secure pallets to the base. The pallets hold vices and chucks as well as parts clamped directly to the pallet.
Pallets with different capacities can mount onto individual locating pins in various configurations to suit the needs of various applications. For instance, the base unit can hold one four-position pallet or two two-position pallets. Shops can also machine their own pallets tailored to their specific applications and purchase a separate centering and locking bushing to make those custom pallets compatible with the Power-Grip Zero Point system.
Today's advanced clamping solutions can be used on machine tools, EDMs and measuring systems. This flexibility allows shops to quickly transfer parts from one process to another without spending significant time setting up parts on different tables. Such zero point systems are also readily incorporated with automation and end-of-arm robotic gripping technologies.
The strong clamping forces, high repeatability and short setup times of zero-point clamping systems make them particularly effective for shops in the automotive, medical, aerospace and watchmaking industries. Parts for these sectors are frequently made from tough materials and demand extreme precision and high-quality surface finishes, along with, in the case of automotive, high-volume production. Zero-point systems enable shops to overcome all of these challenges.
Whether used in high-volume/low-mix or low-volume/high-mix environments, zero-point clamping systems streamline production. With short run parts, shops can waste a lot of time setting up multiple machines, each with a different type of workholding. Modular zero-point clamping systems enable shops to set up parts offline to increase overall spindle utilization. Additionally, zero-point clamping systems can exceed other conventional pallet systems in terms of accuracy and advanced capabilities.

It was time for something new at the Point Reserve in Ngaruawahia, so in early 2019 Waikato District Council called for designs for an all ages playground with a natural look that would reflect the cultural significance of this historic site. We are grateful to the Ngaruawahia community for selecting our design as a place for their families to enjoy.
Given the historical significance of the site we knew elements of our new Ngā Papa Tākaro Māori range, along with Kompan Robinia play equipment would be a perfect for the aesthetic we needed. We were then able to put our efforts into ensuring we provided maximum play opportunity with a variety of different play experiences into one cohesive play space.
The main structure has two Whare roofs – a nod to both the Turangawaewae Marae and Turangawaewae House with an adventure walk bridge connecting the two. There is an easily accessible 1m wide slide for younger users to enjoy and more challenging climbing apparatus on the bigger tower.
Our Sand & Water play tables are made of recycled Totara, that along with our heavy duty water pump bring wonderful sensory play element to the playground. This is great for collaborative play too: the water is not free-flowing, kids need to work together to get the water they need for their experiments which teaches them about the preciousness of this resource.
The Waka Seesaw is a fun way to acknowledge the Waipa and Waikato Rivers, Point Reserve is the meeting place of these two rivers.
Other features Include:
• The inclusive Tipi carousel.
• The Kompan Robinia Cable Way
• The Forest Cantilever Swing - for 360o swinging fun.
• Kompan Robinia Agility climbing challenge.
