The 5 O'Clock Split: How to Manage Your Hectic Workload, Not Lose Your Mind and Still Get Home in Time for Dinner
Marie Myers knows a thing or two about magazine production. A 29-year publishing veteran, she has spent the majority of her career with Manhasset, N.Y.-based United Business Media (UBM), a global media and marketing services company targeting professional and enthusiast markets. She is currently the company's senior vice president of manufacturing and is responsible for the premedia, production, distribution, print and events billing groups. Among her many contributions throughout her years at UBM, Myers created the production budget models that the company utilizes to forecast, reconcile and bid manufacturing expenses.
A testament to Myers' accomplished career, she was inducted into the Publishing Executive Hall of Fame in 2007.
What are the biggest challenges you face in your position?
Marie Myers: Downsizing of publications, reduced issue sizes due to declining advertising, and increased paper and postage costs. We are always looking for ways to save on paper and postage. One big way was the change to co-bind or co-mail all of our publications. This saves, on average, 13 percent to 16 percent in postage.
What other creative cost-cutting strategies have you employed that have particularly paid off?
Myers: … PDF workflow and reduced paper weight. One big savings we just [realized] was the changing of our express mail carrier.
How have you utilized new technologies to facilitate workflow?
Myers: We have a very automated workflow. Our ads are delivered through an ad portal and are already checked and cropped. They are then put into our digital asset management system, and information flows between our billing system, imposition software and digital asset management [system]. This reduces chances of making errors and streamlines the work.
Today's production staffs are often expected to do more with less. What strategies have you implemented to increase efficiency in production workflow?
Myers: We have a very streamlined workflow. As our products reduce in size and frequency, the production people are taking on new responsibilities. They just finished taking on the actual billing and mailing of the invoices. Another change in responsibilities is that, as we reduced staff in our distribution department, the production managers are now arranging their own freight for inserts and other shipments that they need.
If a fellow production professional asked you for your best job-related tips or advice, what would you tell them?
Myers: Try to be as proactive as possible. It is much easier to fix a problem in advance. … I have always gone by the 5, 50, 500 rule: $5 to fix something on a page before the printer; $50 to fix it at the printer's premedia facility; and $500 to fix it on press. Of course, pricing has gone up quite a bit since that rule started, but the meaning remains the same.

BẮC KẠN — Party General Secretary Nguyễn Phú Trọng has suggested the northern mountainous province of Bắc Kạn seek ways to mobilise resources from society to invest in transportation infrastructure development, thus propelling growth and connecting with regional localities.
At a working session with provincial leaders yesterday, the Party leader hailed efforts from the Bắc Kạn Party Organisation, authorities and people in implementing Party resolutions and in improving the economy and locals' living conditions.
He noted that up to 90 per cent of local residents have access to clean water, while annual per capita income has increased to VNĐ26 million ($1,143), double the figure of five years ago.
Bắc Kạn set to have eight additional communes recognised as new-style rural areas this year, raising the total to 10.
Stressing the important location of Bắc Kạn and its advantages in land and climate, General Secretary Trọng said that the province had great development potential and needed to take actions to tap it.
He also acknowledged Bắc Kạn's efforts to streamline and reform its public administrative system, which helped the locality enhance competitiveness and improve its business environment.
Earlier the same day, the Party chief visited the mountainous commune of Sĩ Bình in Bình Thông District, which is home to Tày, Dao and Nùng ethnic minority groups.
He praised the commune's success in boosting the forestry sector to raise locals' income. So far, 70 per cent of communal roads have been asphalted and cemented while 100 per cent of local households have access to power.
Also during the day, General Secretary Trọng visited Bắc Kạn General Hospital, which was built using funds from Government bonds.
Operating since December 2016, the 500-bed hospital has helped improve healthcare services for people in the province and nearby localities. On the 70th anniversary of the Invalids and Martyrs' Day, the Party leader laid a wreath at the Bắc Kạn Martyrs' Cemetery.
On July 6, after arriving in the province, Party General Secretary Nguyễn Phú Trọng visited and presented gifts to people who rendered service to the nation in the locality. — VNS

Speculation behind the "leaked" news of an Umbro and Stretford FC kit deal were laid to rest after it was officially announced that the British sports outfitter will not be the kit choice of the Enders for the 09/10 season.
With just about 2 weeks left to the Ender's inaugural match against The Legends FC, it looks like a race to confirm what Stretford FC will don on the pitch in the matches to follow. There have been fresh rumours though from an unknown source that the management is working hard to firm down a new kit for the new season.
"This is just a minor setback for the club. We are assessing the situation and are quietly confident after speaking a few suppliers that have been in touch with us." said Dennis Wu, the club's official treasurer.
"Our finances looks healthy and we should not be facing much difficulty with securing something in the coming days." Wu continued to hint.
Will a new kit be ready in time for the first match?
SFC News will continue to track the developments with the team kits as well as players' progress leading up to the 29 March kick-off. - SFC News

Hola hot momma 😉
Wish you were in fantastic day *cheers*
I always wonder on why women across the world have stopped nursing their babies.
Perhaps, maybe they are tired of wearing maternity clothes, having folds in obscure places and not feeling sexy and confident? *hey, I do own several maternity lingerie 😉 *
Cheer up my lady >_<
IMHO as advocate in breastfeeding, *breastfeed all my kids non-stop since the past 5 years and a half* (certainly, I still tandem nursing my 3rd & 4th child nowadays *direct-feeding*), I felt it's simply unfair for gorgeous moms to feel sad after bringing such a wonderful blessing into this world.
I did it and I don't mind to share as am here to help other moms succeed, too. I do believe, Y–O–U could do it better than me *Insya-Allah*.
Previously, I read this from Internet: A true sad-story from a diary of a husband 🙁
"I have no problem with my wife being comfortable at bedtime. I'm just saying that I watch you bring home bag after bag of fancy dresses, shoes, and lingerie (purchased with our money), but I never get to see you in any of it. If not tonight, then when? If not for me, for whom?"~ from Unlucky Husband
I am surprised at the number of people *mostly strangers* who come up to me and ask me: "How did you get that body with 4 kids in a row?" It was happening so frequently that I started carrying cards with my blog address on them to hand out.
Yes, I'm 25 years old mom, with 4 adorable kids (my weight: 43 kg, my height: 164cm) *Alhamdulillah*.
In my entire life, I take NO supplement and NO diet regime.
The truth: I eat more than my husband *lol*
My secrets: Prayer, breastfeeding, positive thinking, big smiles, drink lots of mineral water, take 2 glass of homemade soy milk, eat healthy & nutritious foods, daily dance routine, last but not least: get enough rest 😀
For me, the miracle of breastfeeding is a wonderful experience and well worth the sacrifices made and time spent to set our babies up for a great future.
It protects your child against allergies, bonds mother and baby, saves lots money and so much more.*Alhamdulillah*
When we make the choice to stop breastfeeding at an early stage, undoubtedly our babies will suffer.
However, moms need to feel sexy, again. The solution? A lifestyle change!
But, wait . . .Do you wear an oversize t-shirt or flannel pajamas to bed every night for your husband? Has the romance disappeared from your marriage?
Please kindly note that you may strengthening marriages through intimate love and sexy lingerie ^0^
Do spice up your love life before it's too late! Be a Sexy Wifey 😀
Lingerie & high-heels ~these flirty, feminine pieces are beautiful in texture and pattern. Do visit our latest associate league: SuriLingerie.com >_<
Happy Shopping with Love, mommies 😉
pss . . . I'm a big fans of books, chocolates & lingerie + stilettos *only in bedroom* !

The Big Question: Linares vs Crolla 2 - who wins?
Boxing Monthly
24/03/2017 2:45pm
Click here for our Linares vs Crolla 2 preview
Manchester favourite Anthony Crolla faces Venezuelan Jorge Linares on Saturday night in an eagerly awaited lightweight championship rematch. We canvassed opinion among our online team about which man will prevail ...
I think Crolla peaked with his first title run and that Linares will still have a little 'too much' of everything when they meet again, winning a tight decision in a carbon-copy of the first fight. - Colin Harris
My prediction for the rematch is a replay of the original, Linares defeats Crolla by unanimous decision. Simply put, the Tokyo-based Venezuelan has more levels. - Michael Montero
I appreciate why Crolla wanted the rematch but I can't see it going any other way than another Linares win. Linares is a sublime boxer and some of the first fight's scorecards were very flattering to Crolla, and I say that as a huge fan of his. Linares can be got at, but the danger for Crolla when he brings that pressure is how badly he gets tagged in return. I think a points win is on the cards again for Linares, although Crolla will push hard. - James Oddy
Having seen two rematches this year end up with outcomes I really didn't expect I'm slightly nervous about this pick and the judging also concerns me. Whilst some rounds were competitive in the first fight I thought Linares was thoroughly dominant, winning at least nine rounds. The biggest minus for Crolla was that at no point did he hurt, wobble or even dent Linares in their first encounter and the Venezuelan is without doubt the superior boxer. I imagine Crolla will aim to make a faster start and try and pressure Linares, especially to the body but I predict that the champion will weather the early storm and begin to take Crolla apart, eventually stopping him in round eight or nine. - Marcus Bellinger
Damn the consensus, as I explain in my preview I'm going to plump for Crolla to snatch a points victory and write another successful chapter in his fairy-tale career. - Luke G. Williams
This fight seems to have approached us quickly and without a great deal of fanfare. I think the reason for that is the last fight, while competitive, was a clear win for Linares. Crolla has said this time around he has rid himself of unnecessary distractions and focused 100 per cent on this contest and it should be an interesting bout again but unless Linares gets a cut, which he's susceptible to, then I think the Venezuelan will once again be too slick, too refined for Crolla and will stop him late. I'm going TKO 11 for Linares. -Callum Rudge
I was lucky enough to be present at the Manchester Arena for the first fight, a belter which Linares won by a few rounds on my card. To their credit, Team Crolla only ever chased a rematch, depsite their being other lucrative and probably less dangerous options available, suggesting we shouldn't write the ex-champ off just yet. However, despite showing vulnerabilities earlier in his career, Linares appears to have settled into the best form of his career and I expect him to produce an even better performance on Saturday to stop Crolla in the late rounds. - Chris Williamson
Final count: Linares 6 Crolla 1

Thanks to the rise of feminism, representations of women in fiction have never been as varied and empowering as they are today. Gone are the days of two-dimensional, doll-like heroines, whose only purpose was to be coveted, fought over, or rescued by the male characters – today's heroines are complex, nuanced and have agency. However, there's a term that's commonly bandied about in regards to some of our modern-day heroines that I feel is often misused or misinterpreted, and that's the idea of the 'strong female character'. For one thing, it does slightly irk me that we still have to define… Read more »

ETA: Soda, you had not yet posted when I started this. After posting I read yours, and of course you stated my feelings better than I did! Thanks!
Yes. It's rude for people to stand when most folks are sitting - it blocks their view.
No. I should be allowed to stand and dance whenever I want. That's part of the fun!
Maybe. It depends on whether one of the few people standing is in front of me!
I don't care. Whatever the Eagles want is cool with me. It's their show.
I think the Eagles should just take it easy, let what happens happen, and not try to dictate when people can or cannot stand.
ETA: Soda, you had not yet posted when I started this. After posting I read yours, and of course you stated my feelings better than I did! Thanks!

And I dream I'm on vacation 'Cause I like the way that sounds,
It's a perfect occupation for me.
Thanks PM!
You know, I've been on both sides of this issue, so it really hits home for me. I was punched in Glasgow for standing during the first song and not sitting immediately after the band came out. At a Lindsey Buckingham concert, I was kicked by some guy for standing catty corner to him, even though I was in the aisle and trying hard not to block anyone.
That said, I do sit down when I see the majority of people behind me are sitting. I don't really want to stick out like a sore thumb like that! I'll stand for a bit hoping to encourage others to do the same, but if they don't, I sit back down. Of course, sometimes, it becomes difficult to gauge - people in a certain section are standing, but not directly behind me - when is it OK? Having security make that decision is asking for trouble.
Let's face it, there is a tendency for MANY guards to go on power trips and use any excuse to "crack down" on audience members. I was manhandled by guards at Moline for attempting to take a photo at the end of the show during Fleetwood Mac's band bows (I had been good the rest of the concert), harassed by them in Detroit's DTE to the degree where I swore I would never see another show there (I had simply moved down the row a few seats after the people sitting there had left before Fleetwood Mac's encore, and I was yelled at). Many of my friends have similar stories. The last thing those type of security guards need is "official sanction" to be pricks.
I remember in Chicago, the second show, when Don called out a couple people for standing during Waiting in the Weeds. "When we sit down, you can sit down, too. Then maybe the people behind you can see for a change." I CRINGED. While some people applauded, many others - including those around me - were going "What a dick." Meanwhile, from my vantage point, I could see patches of people standing in other sections. He accomplished little but to make himself look bad and make two fans feel like crap. Yes, he made it easier for the people immediately behind them to see and they were undoubtedly grateful, but was it worth injecting negativity into the show and bringing the room down, even if only for a bit?
Again, he was just trying to help... but his desire to insert himself into the situation and "take control" was a mistake, IMHO. He came off like an old, scolding fuddy-duddy telling the kids to get off his lawn. If they were really being so horrific, as I said before, security can take care of it without the band's help.
I voted for the last option. I tend to agree with Soda's points although I think Dreamer had some valid arguments as well.
I can safely say that we don't get the crowd trouble that you seem to get in the Northern Hemisphere. Australians are so apathetic that most of them don't want to stand up.
And it's undeniable that when the majority of the audience is standing and dancing, the concert's energy level soars. Perhaps that's why the executive producer of Farewell 1 approved the inclusion of so many shots of the people who were standing, even during slow songs like Lyin' Eyes. (The executive producer was Glenn Frey.)
Fleetwood Mac's policy of allowing anyone in the first four rows who wants to stand to come up to the stage does effectively eliminate such problems at the front; at the stage, these standing folks are no longer blocking anyone, and can rock out to their heart's delight.
ETA: You know, I wonder if Don would be mad at me for standing during Take It to the Limit... the Eagles are sitting then so by his earlier logic I should sit too.... but DANG, it's such a powerful song! Seems to me to be justifiable to stand, at least at the end!
PM & Soda--I think you guys are spot on! Let's face it--Glenn & Don already get a bad rap from a lot of critics for being not so kind--why prove their point by calling out to audience members (the same people that have helped make them what they are today). I truly believe they are making themselves look like grumpy old men and I don't want to see that. It is extremely upsetting to see them so "moody" and hear that this stuff is going on--so far as going to the trouble to have flyers handed out to the first 10 rows for goodness sake! Might as well post a "do not trespass" sign!
Again--we are not children and 90% of us can figure out when it is appropriate to stand during a song and when to sit down in our seats-without being told. In Cincinnati, we had 2 drunk chicks from 5 rows back, falling all over and getting mouthy with my daughter as they tried to stumble there way up the isle to the stage. Security did nothing till I told them to during intermission but yet they were all over a young couple dancing in the far isle where they really weren't hurting anyone. I know security isn't always something you can depend on but let them take care of it and not the band.
I think this bad publicity on top of the whole Irving/Ticketmaster thing right now, and every review you read making a big deal about the face value of the tickets, which most feel very strongly about just isn't good and it is really souring some fans. Me included. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE AND ADORE THEM but this does get hard to swallow. They have been on such a pedestal for years with me, it makes it harder. That of course, could also be coupled with the fact I bowed out of going this Sunday because of personal reasons but also didn't want to spend the money ~~~~ maybe I'm taking it to seriously to heart because I'm feeling a bit bitter at the moment.
He sings it high, he plays it low
I totally agree with everyone that it would be best for the band not to address this with members of an audience. It doesnt endear the band to fans if they embarrass or humiliate them. But here is where I take issue. First of all, I am not prepared to criticize the band so harshly when I really do not know what the bands official policy is regarding this matter. Everything we are talking about here is hearsay. Here is what the columnist wrote:
Not exactly clearcut or cast in stone. Based on this, the columnist even acknowledges that he is not totally clear on the facts. In addition, it seems to me from reading this that it was the venue that decided to distribute leaflets, not a request from the band.MTS Centre security explained their actions this way. "It's Eagles' policy."
But why?
I called Kevin Donnelly, the MTS Centre general manager.
Donnelly said the event promoter asked them to implement the stay-seated policy and leaflets were distributed to people in the first 10 rows, advising them that they may be asked to sit down.
From what I gather, this "Eagles policy" was supposed to work this way.
If most people were seated -- say, during a slow number like Peaceful Easy Feeling -- the "stragglers" who were still standing would be asked to sit like everyone else.
But if the majority of people stood for an up-tempo song like Life In The Fast Lane, security was instructed to let them stay standing.
In any event, if the band wants to set guidelines that the audience should generally dictate when they want to stand, I dont have a problem with that. While it is true that the energy level soars when the crowd is standing and dancing, the crowd will dictate when they want that to happen. Although I like the idea that Fleetwood Mac has of letting people up front, I still don't think that it will solve most of the problems. As someone who is vertically challenged, I appreciate it if the band is trying to address the issue. Eagles tickets are not cheap for anyone. But the people who want or need to sit or are short have just as much right to be able to see the show as the ones who want to stand. I just dont think there is a clear right or wrong answer to this, which is probably why there is so much controversy.
However, I also agree that whatever the bands stance is that it probably wont make any real difference in the long run. It is still up to the venues security to interpret and enforce any policies. And as I said before, therein lies the real problem, IMHO.
"People don't run out of dreams: People just run out of time ..."
Glenn Frey 11/06/1948 - 01/18/2016
Unselfish me: I know they have to have some rules in place for safety measures as well as so everyone can enjoy themselves. This could be argued two ways: the sitters point of view and the standers. I understand there are many different kinds of people attending an Eagles concert and all should be able to enjoy themselves 100%.
Selfish me: I being the stander/dancer voted for no. I should not be told to sit down at a rock n roll concert. An opera maybe but not for rock n roll. I might as well stay home and put in a live dvd if I intend to sit down.

Ok, I feel really strongly about this... The first concert I ever saw was Duran Duran, I remember standing the whole time! Other concerts I've been too Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, Skid Row, etc, etc, etc... I never sat at any of those concerts. It just wasn't done. Not at a rock concert! I did see Petty right after his best friend Del died and there was a lot of sitting. I actually felt sad. I couldn't tell if the audience was "supposed" to sit or if it was vibe from Tom's recent loss.
The concerts I've been at were there was a lot of sitting have been country acts; Reba, Alan Jackson, Garth Brooks... and I have to say, I didn't have the same "connection" that I did at a "rock" concert.
I am a huge lover of music. Music resonates w/the soul. When I'm at a concert, I want to feel that connection. The aura of the crowd, the energy... it all means so much.
So yeah, to conclude... by all means standing and "feeling" the music is a must! If you need or want to sit, no one will care. Mind you, I'm short, only 5'2" and I often have 6' men standing in front of me... but that's just part of the territory...
Audience participation is part of the performance,, or so I thought it was. It never occurs to me to sit at a concert even with a seat assigned. It doesn't matter who it is, generally I go see bands/musicians I like so I'm always into the performance just like the band is. I suppose since our gentlemen are getting up in age as well as countless fans I should understand the need for cautiousness.
The second night was better. However, sitting down during Hotel California because "majority rules" also felt pretty lame to me.

Here's my set-up:
Speakers are 7.1: 2 front, 1 center, 2 side & 2 rear surrounds, sub.
Receiver is a Denon 3803. It can do DD, DDex and Plii.
Source material is 5.1. Such as HBO over my Roku 4, or standard dvd, not Blu-ray.
I never thought the surround experience with DD or PLii on the Denon was very good. Cranking up the surround speakers helps, but the effects are not wow-inspiring. I have a chance to try out a Pioneer Elite that can do PLiiX. Would it be worth the expense and effort to try it, or would there not be much difference in the surround effects, given my set-up? I have no interest in what they do to 2-channel sources, since I almost always listen to stereo in stereo.

Is it setting up for another fall?
Looking just at the 5-minute chart, the price of bitcoin has been swinging and swaying above and below the 100 and 200 bar MAs (blue and green lines respectively). There are times when the price tests the MA lines and there is a rotation lower (or higher) off the lines.
Then there are other times (see blue sideways hours) when the price moves from above to below the MA lines or moves from below to above the MA lines. At those times, the price bias changes from bullish to bearish, or from bearish to bullish.
What is happening currently?
For traders if you look at the blue and green MA lines, they are converged (close to each other). The price is trading relatively quietly above and below the lines.
The lull will eventually lead to a break and run.
The price in the last hour or so stalled at the 50% retracement of the day's trading range. Is that ceiling saying the sellers are setting up for a break lower?
Perhaps… What we can say is if it does hold and the MA are broken, we could see more selling technically from the price action. If it fails, traders selling will likely give up on the short and buy back.
So it is a key intraday monent for bitcoin.

The NECGB Championship Show held near Coventry is one of the highlights of the show calendar, and this year it proved to be exceptionally so for us.
Winning his 3rd CC (which gives him his UK title) was our American import, SBIS Am Gr Ch/Can Ch Kamgaard Kut Above (co-owned by Stuart Horner, Sally Simmonds and Maggie Mott). Kobi is 8 years old and was handled to his title by Stuart, who is himself 78 years of age. So you might say that the oldies proved that they've both still got it!
As well as winning the Dog CC and Best Opposite Sex, Kobi was also Best Veteran In Show. What is especially pleasing is that Maggie was at ringside to see Kobi's win!
Another nice win at the show was 1st in the Brood Bitch class for Siri (Am Ch Kamgaard Kiamesha), co-owned by Vanessa and Bryony Gray. The win is depicted in this photo which was taken by Ali Cullen. The team wore knitted waistcoats which Ness handmade over a period of 8 months (without her knowing the relative sizes of the people that would be wearing them, which was challenging - I think young Lucy Cullen still has a bit of growing to do to fit hers!). Siri's son, Flint (Grasilva Little Rock Avec Gilkaro JW) was awarded the Reserve Dog CC at the show and 2 others from the same litter also won 1st places.
A fabulous day was had at the NECGB AGM and Contest of Champions yesterday.
Firstly, the points trophies were awarded for wins over the course of 2016. Mya (Grasilva Cruggleton With Laakso), owned by Tanja Mortimer was confirmed as the top-winning Norwegian elkhound puppy of 2016. She is by our Kobi out of Ch Grasilva Gwendoline Mary (a daughter of my Raider). Flint (Grasilva Little Rock Avec Gilkaro JW), bred by Bryony Gray and Vanessa McHugh and owned by Alan and Helen Tress and Katherine Gilluley had to make do with the trophy for top male puppy. However, he was also confirmed as the top points-winning male Norwegian elkhound in the UK in 2016! At the other end of the age spectrum, Kobi (SBIS Am Gr Ch/Can Ch Kamgaard Kut Above) was named as the top-winning veteran of last year. He is co-owned by Stuart Horner with Sally Simmonds and Maggie Mott. Top brood bitch in the UK (based on points won by offspring over the course of the year) was Flint's mother Siri (Am Ch Kamgaard Kiamesha), co-owned by Bryony Gray and Vanessa McHugh.
Later in the day and at the same venue, the Contest of Champions took place, and this time, Flint came out on top as the Puppy of the Year, with litter sister, Bryony's own Tia (Grasilva Silver Vine), chosen as Puppy Bitch of the Year. Flint was also the winning male in the Stud Book Challenge.
We are excited to see what the future holds for these and other young dogs connected to us.
Siri, like lightning, strikes twice
Siri (Am Ch Kamgaard Kiamesha) won the RCC at Midland Counties for the second year running, this time under Serena Parker. She was once again handled by her co-breeder, Maggie Mott (Kamgaard).
"Eyecatching girl with everything in the right place, lovely head & expression, correct forehand, good body, tailset & hindquarters. She moved true both ways & covered the ground well, shown in good coat & conditioning she was not disgraced with the RCC in such good company."
This picture of Siri was taken earlier in the year, at East of England.
She was not the only family member to find success on the day. Son Flint (Grasilva Little Rock Avec Gilkaro) won the other RCC and young daughter Tia (Grasilva Silver Vine) was Reserve Best Bitch at the NECGB Open Show, hled later in the day.
Midland Counties
[First posted 24 October 2015]
Siri (Am Ch Kamgaard Kiamesha) made her debut this month and picked up the RCC here, at only her second show in the UK, under breed specialist Peter Hudson.
She was handled by her co-breeder, Maggie Mott, with co-breeder Sally Simmonds looking on. Thank you, Maggie, for handling Siri so beautifully to this win.
Siri is co-owned by Bryony Gray (Grasilva) and Vanessa McHugh (Conrick).
The stork has landed........
[First posted March - April 2015]
....twice in fact! Kobi (SBIS Am Grand Ch & Can Ch Kamgaard Kut Above) sired his first UK litter in March. The litter was born at the home of the Ellahyde Norwegian Elkhounds. We look forward to seeing some of this litter in the ring later in the year.
In April, the lovely import, Siri (Am Ch Kamgaard Kiamesha), safely delivered her first litter at Grasilva. Bryony and I feel honoured to have been given the opportunity of using the very beautiful Rock (Am Ch Horizon Rock Solid), whom we had seen go Winners Dog and Best of Winners at the NEAA Specialty in Boston in April 2014. We believe that this linebred litter will enhance and enrich the tiny UK gene pool. We can't wait for some of this litter to also make their debut in the ring.
The ring is going to be an interesting (and competitive) place in the autumn!

England expects……not much
Author: Russell SmithJune 10, 2012
I haven't seen many red England flags on cars this summer. I'm not sure whether this is because:
a) The Jubilee, both the Jubilee itself and the timing of the Jubilee
b) The Olympics
c) Nobody is expecting England to do much in the tournament
Personally, I am writing this filled with as much excitement as I had when I first got into watching England in 1990 and am really looking forward to England v France tomorrow.
I told myself not to get involved this year. I haven't watched a single qualifier, having been so despondent over the England v Germany game in the World Cup (because we were so bad AND how a sport with so much money in it could not afford goalline technology).
But as soon as the tournament started on Friday, I have been hooked. I'm sure to be disappointed though along with all England fans. I think our group is tough and if we squeeze past it, a quarter final victory over Spain or Italy looks unlikely.
Anyway, what has this got to do with anything?
I made an interesting observation about time management and myself today. I, like most business owners, am very busy. Of course, busy doesn't always equal productivity but I'm sure you get my point. I have complained with the best of them about the lack of time there is to do all the things that need to be done.
Like me, I'm sure you know, that you can't actually manage time. Time keeps going forward whether you like it or not. You can only invest time and despite a busy weekend and despite my usual Sunday evening week slot which usually lasts 3 hours, I have managed to watch every Euro 2012 highlight show from Friday to Sunday and I've seen one full game. If you include the Thursday football focus preview, that's about 5 hours that I've managed to carve out of my 'busy' schedule.
Here's the point….you may be mega busy and feel overwhelmed by everything you have to do, but the truth is, if you really want to do something, you will make time to do it – simple as that.
What business tasks are you putting off and hiding behind the 'there is no time' routine?
Now that I've got that off my chest, back to the football…..not good for yours or my productivity (only every 2 years though!!!).

Background and Objectives:. Owing to the non-seperated municipal solid wastes the leachate form in land fills contain high amounts of heavy metalls and toxic substances Hence, leachate treatment is a serious problem. In order to design leachate treatment and collection systems, estimation of quality and quantity of leachate is of high necessity. Hydrologic Evaluation of Landfill Performance (HELP) Model was used to estimate leachate generation in the lined landfill cells for a variety of conditions. The HELP program is a quasi-two-dimensional hydrologic model for conducting water balance analysis of landfills, cover systems, and other solid waste containment facilities. In this paper HELP program is used to predict leachate generating in Semnan landfill after its operational life.
Materials and Methods: HELP model use weather, soil and design data to estimate leachate quantity. The meteorological data were obtained from semnan Atmospheric Data Centre. Soil mechanics examinations in the landfill area were applied to achieve soil data. In addition, design parameters were based on Semnan landfill design specifications. Semnan landfill capacity is designed so as to accommodate municipal solid wastes generated during the next 25 years.
Results: In this study result indicated that precipitation and evapotranspiration has the most influenced on leachate generation increase and decrease, respectively. 82% of annual precipitation isn't percolated into Semnan landfill due to evapotranspiration. HELP Model simulations were indicated that the maximum and average value of leachate height above barrier layer is 36 and 3mm,respectively.
Conclusion: Semnan landfill is designed under minimum standard condition. Therefore, low height of leachate generated is due to area weather. The precipitation amount is low while the evapotranspiration amount is high in this area. High evapotranspiration is due to high temperature and solar radiation in Semnan landfill area. High evapotranspiration in the landfill cap caused 14.2% of the precipitation to infiltrate into the wastes and became leachate.

What Affect Does Your Credit Score Have On Your Insurance?
Are your insurance rates based on your driving or your credit score? It will probably surprise you to know that your insurance company is judging less on your driving habits and more on socioeconomic factors.
In some states single drivers who had a clean driving record and poor credit scores paid a couple of thousand dollars more for insurance than a driver with a clean record and good credit score.
In Florida a single adult person with a clean driving record and poor credit paid an average of $3,826 a year for their car insurance. A driver with a clean driving record an excellent credit paid $1,409 for their car insurance

The South Carolina Department of Public Safety held a ceremony today honoring troopers from around the state for exceptional service in 2017. SCHP also recognized Telecommunications Operators from around the state for the support they provide to the Highway Patrol and other DPS law enforcement divisions. Special awards – Medal of Valor and Purple Heart Award – were presented as well. This was the 50th Anniversary of the Trooper of the Year Award. The Highway Patrol invited the recipients or their designated family members back to be recognized. Trooper Stevi J. Price was named the overall Trooper of the Year – representing the first female to ever win the Trooper of the Year award.
Tpr. Stevi J. Price (above), stationed in Richland County, was the South Carolina Highway Patrol Trooper of the Year overall winner. Price was chosen from among 10 other nominees from around the state. She was recognized for her efforts to save the life of a motorist following a collision. Price was on her way to a call for service when she stopped to assist with another collision. The car was beginning to catch fire and a motorist was trapped inside the vehicle. Price, with the help of another trooper who arrived on-scene, was able to free the woman from the vehicle before it was fully engulfed in flames. Price also received the Director's Medal of Valor for her heroic efforts. Trooper Price is a native of Statesville, NC, and has been with the Highway Patrol since 2015 (for a complete write-up of her nomination, click here).
TCO Brad Carrigg (above) of the Blythewood Telecommunications Center was chosen as the overall Telecommunications Operator winner. He was recognized for the outstanding work he does each day to support troopers and other law enforcement as well as the motoring public (see attached link for narrative). He was also honored for the professional way in which he assisted troopers during a pursuit of suspects who had just committed a robbery and were wanted for 40 robberies in the Southeast.

Skip to 0 minutes and 5 seconds If you are currently learning about English Language or Linguistics at school or college, you might have touched on the ideas of salience, audience design and accommodation. Broadly-speaking, salience is when a linguistic feature (like a speech sound or the order that words are arranged in) is noticeable to others. You've probably had moments yourself when listening to a voice, where you thought that the speaker was obviously from a particular place. The chances are, that you were picking up on salient linguistic features which gave you clues to where the person is from. Possibly even other information too, like what languages they speak or what their upbringing was like.
Skip to 0 minutes and 40 seconds In sociolinguistic research, this idea of salience is crucial to the investigation of accents, attitudes and identity. This is because, it is often these more obvious linguistic features which are used by speakers to express their identity, or are used by listeners to identify people as belonging to a certain group. The salience of linguistic features can also be important when it comes to how we go about communicating with others. For example, if you've just been approached in the street by someone who speaks English as a foreign language who would like directions to the nearest bank, it's quite possible that they might not be familiar with your accent or some of the words you normally use.
Skip to 1 minute and 17 seconds In situations like these, it's useful to think about which aspects of your speech you could change to help the person you're talking to understand you better. This ties into what we call 'audience design.' This is where the person or people that you're talking to influence how you speak. So, when talking to someone who you think might have trouble understanding you, you might decide to speak more slowly or enunciate certain sounds, like aitch at the beginning of a word or the t in a word like water. What might also happen is that your speech becomes more similar to the person that you're talking to.
Skip to 1 minute and 48 seconds This rather famously happened to the former-footballer Joey Barton during a press conference in France - when he was mocked for seemingly adopting a 'French' accent in place of his more usual Merseyside accent. This is a great example of what is known as accommodation. This often happens in situations where the speakers like one another, or where a speaker wants to come across as cooperative. Now let's take a moment to reflect on how these ideas of salience, audience design, and accommodation might relate to language attitudes. For example, can you think of any advantages or disadvantages to accommodating to someone else's speech? We'll discuss our thoughts in the next step.
Salience, audience design and accommodation
'Salience', 'audience design' and 'accommodation' are commonly explored in sociolinguistic research.

Girls and Leaders around the County Remember
On this Armistice Day when we remember and pay tribute to all those who died in World Wars One and Two and in every conflict since, Girls and Leaders from around Greater Manchester West have been attending services and completing community action.
Representatives from Girlguiding Sale attended the Remembrance Service held at Sale Cenotaph on Sunday 8 November. Brownies and Guides marched together with many uniformed organisations and showed their respect and pride for the people of Sale. A wreath was laid by Sale's President, Sheila Clarke.
3rd A Brownies, 3rd Rainbows and 3rd Guides from Timperley District gathered at Timperley Methodist Church. The Rainbows paraded with their brand new flag; the flag bearer did a super job of dipping the colours.
Rainbows from 2nd Ashton South in Sale joined more than 100 soldiers, cadets, veterans and volunteers on Wednesday 4 November to collect donations and distribute poppies across the city centre for the Poppy Appeal 2015. The Rainbows were stationed at The Royal British Legion stand at the Trafford Centre and were extremely enthusiastic poppy sellers! Representatives from The Royal British Legion are also coming to their meeting to do a workshop with the girls to help them understand the importance of Armistice Day.
2nd Monton Brownies made two poppy wreaths which they laid at their Remembrance Day Parade on Sunday. They also made and decorated some wonderful poppy biscuits which the girls took home to eat!

Common Medications Can Masquerade As Dementia In SeniorsJul 19, 2019 4:45 PM - [khn_slabs slabs="789584"] By all accounts the woman, in her late 60s, appeared to have severe dementia. She was largely incoherent. Her short-term memory was terrible. She couldn't focus on questions that medical professionals asked her.But Dr. Malaz Boustani, a professor of aging research at Indiana University School of Medicine, suspected something else might be going on. The patient was taking Benadryl for seasonal allergies, another antihistamine for itching, Seroquel (an antipsychotic medication) for mood fluctuations, as well as medications for urinary incontinence and gastrointestinal upset.To various degrees, each of these drugs blocks an important chemical messenger in the brain, acetylcholine. Boustani thought the cumulative impact might be causing the woman's cognitive difficulties.He was right. Over six months, Boustani and a pharmacist took the patient off those medications and substituted alternative treatments. Miraculously, she appeared to recover completely. Her initial score on the Mini-Mental State Exam had been 11 of 30 - signifying severe dementia - and it shot up to 28, in the normal range.An estimated 1 in 4 older adults take anticholinergic drugs - a wide-ranging class of medications used to treat allergies, insomnia, leaky bladders, diarrhea, dizziness, motion sickness, asthma, Parkinson's disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and various psychiatric disorders.Older adults are highly susceptible to negative responses to these medications. Since 2012, anticholinergics have been featured prominently on the American Geriatrics Society Beers Criteria list of medications that are potentially inappropriate for seniors."The drugs that I'm most worried about in my clinic, when I need to think about what might be contributing to older patients' memory loss or cognitive changes, are the anticholinergics," said Dr. Rosemary Laird, a geriatrician and medical director of the Maturing Minds Clinic at AdventHealth in Winter Park, Fla. [khn_slabs slabs="850368" view="inline"] Here's what older adults should know about these drugs:The BasicsAnticholinergic medications target acetylcholine, an important chemical messenger in the parasympathetic nervous system that dilates blood vessels and regulates muscle contractions, bodily secretions and heart rate, among other functions. In the brain, acetylcholine plays a key role in attention, concentration, and memory formation and consolidation.Some medications have strong anticholinergic properties, others less so. Among prescription medicines with strong effects are antidepressants such as imipramine (brand name Trofanil), antihistamines such as hydroxyzine (Vistaril and Atarax), antipsychotics such as clozapine (Clozaril and FazaClo), antispasmodics such as dicyclomine (Bentyl) and drugs for urinary incontinence such as tolterodine (Detrol).In addition to prescription medications, many common over-the-counter drugs have anticholinergic properties, including antihistamines such as Benadryl and Chlor-Trimeton and sleep aids such as Tylenol PM, Aleve PM and Nytol.Common side effects include dizziness, confusion, drowsiness, disorientation, agitation, blurry vision, dry mouth, constipation, difficulty urinating and delirium, a sudden and acute change in consciousness.Unfortunately, "physicians often attribute anticholinergic symptoms in elderly people to aging or age-related illness rather than the effects of drugs," according to a research review by physicians at the Medical University of South Carolina and in Britain.Seniors are more susceptible to adverse effects from these medications for several reasons: Their brains process acetylcholine less efficiently. The medications are more likely to cross the blood-brain barrier. And their bodies take longer to break down these drugs.Long-Term EffectsIn the late 1970s, researchers discovered that deficits in an enzyme that synthesizes acetylcholine were present in the brains of people with Alzheimer's disease. "That put geriatricians and neurologists on alert, and the word went out: Don't put older adults, especially those with cognitive dysfunction, on drugs with acetylcholine-blocking effects," said Dr. Steven DeKosky, deputy director of the McKnight Brain Institute at the University of Florida.Still, experts thought that the effects of anticholinergics were short-term and that if older patients stopped taking them, "that's it - everything goes back to normal," Boustani said.Concerns mounted in the mid-2000s when researchers picked up signals that anticholinergic drugs could have a long-term effect, possibly leading to the death of brain neurons and the accumulation of plaques and tangles associated with neurodegeneration.Since then several studies have noted an association between anticholinergics and a heightened risk of dementia. In late June, this risk was highlighted in a new report in JAMA Internal Medicine that examined more than 284,000 adults age 55 and older in Britain between 2004 and 2016.The study found that more than half of these subjects had been prescribed at least one of 56 anticholinergic drugs. (Multiple prescriptions of these drugs were common as well.) People who took a daily dose of a strong anticholinergic for three years had a 49% increased risk of dementia. Effects were most pronounced for people who took anticholinergic antidepressants, antipsychotics, antiepileptic drugs and bladder control medications.These findings don't constitute proof that anticholinergic drugs cause dementia; they show only an association. But based on this study and earlier research, Boustani said, it now appears older adults who take strong anticholinergic medications for one to three years are vulnerable to long-term side effects.Preventing HarmAttention is now turning to how best to wean older adults off anticholinergics, and whether doing so might improve cognition or prevent dementia.Researchers at Indiana University's School of Medicine hope to answer these questions in two new studies, starting this fall, supported by $6.8 million in funding from the National Institute on Aging.One will enroll 344 older adults who are taking anticholinergics and whose cognition is mildly impaired. A pharmacist will work with these patients and their physicians to take them off the medications, and patients' cognition will be assessed every six months for two years.The goal is to see whether patients' brains "get better," said Noll Campbell, a research scientist at Indiana University's Regenstrief Institute and an assistant professor at Purdue University's College of Pharmacy. If so, that would constitute evidence that anticholinergic drugs cause cognitive decline.The second trial, involving 700 older adults, will examine whether an app that educates seniors about potential harms associated with anticholinergic medications and assigns a personalized risk score for dementia induces people to initiate conversations with physicians about getting off these drugs.Moving patients off anticholinergic drugs requires "slow tapering down of medications" over three to six months, at a minimum, according to Nagham Ailabouni, a geriatric pharmacist at the University of Washington School of Pharmacy. In most cases, good treatment alternatives are available.Advice For Older AdultsSeniors concerned about taking anticholinergic drugs "need to approach their primary care physician and talk about the risks versus the benefits of taking these medications," said Shellina Scheiner, an assistant professor and clinical geriatric pharmacist at the University of Minnesota.Don't try stopping cold turkey or on your own. "People can become dependent on these drugs and experience withdrawal side effects such as agitation, dizziness, confusion and jitteriness," Ailabouni said. "This can be managed, but you need to work with a medical provider."Also, "don't make the assumption that if [a] drug is available over the counter that it's automatically safe for your brain," Boustani said. In general, he advises older adults to ask physicians about how all the medications they're taking could affect their brain.Finally, doctors should "not give anticholinergic medications to people with any type of dementia," DeKosky said. "This will not only interfere with their memory but is likely to make them confused and interfere with their functioning."We're eager to hear from readers about questions you'd like answered, problems you've been having with your care and advice you need in dealing with the health care system.

Egypt will receive its first shipment of Australian Liquefied natural Gas on Wednesday, according to a report by Reuters.
The 159,760-cubic-metre cargo aboard the Woodside Rogers was loaded at the port of Dampier, which serves as the loading point for two LNG export plants, Pluto and North West Shelf, both operated by Woodside Petroleum.
The North African nation has inked multiple LNG deals to meet its short term gas demand. Along with Noble Group and Sonatrach, Egypt has signed LNG imports deals withTrafigura, Vitol and Gazprom.
In total EGAS has signed agreements to import 90 LNG shipments, 49 of which are going to be delivered in 2015 and 2016, Petroleum Ministry said earlier this year.
The Egyptian economy is facing severe gas shortage as local demand has ballooned in recent years amid declining domestic production. For the short term, the government is trying to source LNG from various sources to cater to growing demand.
Also, the government is looking to encourage foreign energy firms to boost investment in local hydrocarbon sector.
Major discoveries in the 1990s have given natural gas increasing importance as an energy source. As of 2005, the country's reserves of natural gas are estimated at 66 trillion cubic feet, which are the third largest in Africa. Domestic consumption of natural gas has also risen as a result of thermal power plants converting from oil to natural gas. As of 2002, Egypt's production and consumption of natural gas are each estimated at 941 billion cubic feet.
