Are you looking for a IT internship in Michigan? IT internships are the best way to bridge the gap between going to school and landing great job. Internships can help provide valuable work experience by learning the ropes from more experienced professionals. At the end of your internship, you'll have relevant experience to help you decide if starting your career in the field of your internship is the right choice for you. It also helps that 7 out of 10 internships result in a full time job offer, which means interning in Michigan can also serve as the foundation to landing a full time job in that city after graduation.
IT summer internships in Michigan are pretty common, but don't expect to be in charge at the end of your internship! Usually, you'll have to work from the bottom up, but interns are much more likely to get a job offer from the employer they're interning with. If you decide to intern at a smaller company, you'll sacrifice the name prestige for other benefits, such as having an opportunity to see your projects go from start to finish. Simply gaining IT experience is essential in order to provide value and creativity to the team.

A personal injury lawyer or law firm works with clients who have suffered a physical or emotional injury, usually by accident or mistake. They cover cases such as burn injuries, botched surgeries, and harassment. Personal injury attorneys know how the insurance claim process works, they know what evidence to gather, and they know how to calculate and present a claim for damages. Many personal injury attorneys take cases on a contingency basis, which means they receive an agreed-upon percentage of the payment you receive, also called the personal injury settlement. If you don't recover any money, they don't get paid their fee. Personal injury lawyers also know how to defend you if someone thinks an injury is your fault.

DOH Care Guidance A Smoke Screen - Alzheimer's Society Offers Help
Responding to the framework's shortcomings, the Alzheimer's Society stepped in to launch a network of volunteers who will use their experiences to help others navigate through the tricky care system.
Neil Hunt, chief executive of the Alzheimer's Society said,
'The current system of care funding is a public scandal that discriminates against thousands of people with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. This has to stop. Today's announcement is a step in the right direction and may mean that some additional people with dementia will get access to funding for long term care.'
'Despite this, there is no escaping that the current care system is broken and needs a complete overhaul. Thousands of families will still be left struggling with astronomical care bills. We need a national debate on who pays for care.'
'Today we are launching the "NHS continuing care volunteer network" which will be championed by volunteers who have won continuing care cases after lengthy battles. Using the new guidance and the network's expertise, we hope thousands more people will get access to the care funding they deserve.'
Mike Pearce, a volunteer who will help others as part of the Alzheimer's Society's new network says,
'Many people are wrongly denied help paying for care because the system is deliberately confusing. My own battle took many years to get back the £50, 000 I paid for my mother's care. It wasn't about the money, it was about getting the support my mother deserved. I hope I can show other people who are struggling at such a difficult time to how do the same.'
'The Alzheimer's Society is urging people who think they have been wrongly charged for care to seek a review of their care case by asking their PCT or equivalent organisation for a continuing care assessment. If people have already been turned down for fully funded care and are not satisfied, they should request a review using the new guidance.'
People who would like to get in touch with the NHS continuing care volunteer network should visit www.alzheimers.org.uk for more information.
The framework will be considered a best practice guide until 1 October 2007 when it will become directions.
Registered Nursing Care Contributions (RNCC) will also change. Currently people can received three different levels of contributions towards their care depending on the complexity of a person's health needs. From 1 October 2007, the three different levels (bands) will be replaced by a single band.
Continuing care or fully funded NHS care is care given over an extended period of time, as a result of disability, accident, or illness. It may address physical and mental needs and therefore require services from both the NHS and/or social care.
A copy of the new framework will be available, funded separately.
Registered Nursing Care Contributions (RNCC) bands are contributions made towards the costs of care according the complexity of a person's condition. Currently there are high, medium and low bands. From 1 October 2007 the three bands will be replaced a single RNCC band.
Advice and a guide to challenging an assessment of NHS continuing care is available at Department of Health website
The Alzheimer's Society is calling for a national debate on who pays for care. People are willing to make a contribution towards the costs of care but only if the system is more transparent and equitable and the care is of a higher quality.
1 in 3 older people will end their lives with a form of dementia.
700,000 people in the UK are affected by dementia, more than half have Alzheimer's disease. In less than 20 years nearly a million people will be living with dementia. This will soar to 1.7 million people by 2051.
The Alzheimer's Society champions the rights of people living with dementia and those who care for them. The Alzheimer's Society works in England, Northern Ireland and Wales.

What do you hide? What do you seek?
Does something seem to be eluding you? Is something trying to find you?
This workshop will use divination and the shamanic journey to explore areas within that are ready to be seen and explored. Each person hides something, either from others, or themselves...sometimes by accident, and other times on purpose, or perceived necessity. Each person is also seeking something...peace, love, a purposeful life- and sometimes, that which we seem to seek seems to elude us. The tools of the shamanic path are perfect for asking the teachers within to help us understand ourselves more clearly. In the most loving way, there is no hiding from ourselves, and we are that which we seek. This practice helps us see this truth.
We will experience two shamanic journeys, with time for writing and optional sharing after each experience. We will seek the guidance and reflection needed RIGHT NOW to help us on our path. This workshop is perfect for spiritual seekers, empathic beings and those who are curious about such techniques and subjects. The shamanic journey always teaches us something, when we learn how to ask and listen. Come join us, this will be an uplifting and illuminating adventure. :)
This workshop is open to people with all levels of shamanic journeying experience. If you are new to the journeying process, please consider reviewing the ONline Learning page at www.shamanworld.com for tips and advice about the shamanic journey.
The sliding scale for this workshop is $5-$20 based on income. If you are called to this circle, yet you are having money issues right now, please contact Quynn. If you are running late or cannot find us, call/txt Quynn at 954-2004.
Your guide is Quynn Red Mountain, shamanic intuitive and founder of ISA. Find out more about Quynn at www.quynn.com
wow- that experience revealed a lot more than I was expecting
(far more than "usual") :-)
Thank you- so awesome and full of gratitude for the
visions that were unhidden within these journeys.
I am processing all of this with affirmation and wide open
acceptance for what I am feeling.

Deadline April 21!!!
Township wants public feedback on Growth Management Report
Last spring the Township engaged Stantec Consulting Ltd. to prepare a plan that will set the path for Centre Wellington's development well into the future. On April 4, they posted Stantec's report on the Township website, and on April 10 issued their press release.
Township wants your comments on three options and approaches of how growth and density can be allocated!
If you would like to provide input into the Options & Approaches Report,
please send an email to: firstname.lastname@example.com.
All comments must be submitted by April 21, 2017.
Centre Wellington Township Press Release on Growth Management Strategy
Centre Wellington Township Growth Management Strategy Page on Website
Text of the Growth Management Strategy Report, March 2017
Township of Centre Wellington wants your comments on three options and approaches of how growth and density can be allocated!
The community was given only 11 days following the press release, with a deadline of April 21 to respond by email to the 30-page report. Search "Growth Management Strategy Centre Wellington" for the April 4, 2017 post, and click on the "Options and Approaches Report". Email comments to the Township through the email address: email@example.com.
What will our Township will be like in decades to come? The right plan for future land use and density designations is of utmost importance!
Please email with your selected option and other comments -
Some issues to consider:
1. The time frame for public input is a huge concern. If this process is Community Engagement, then this is Community Engagement Lite!
Public comments submitted by email are one-way conversation. There is no opportunity here for questions and answers or proper community engagement.
The press release indicates that a public consultation forum will take place after the final preferred approach has already been presented to Council.
There have been far more public meetings and opportunity for stakeholder involvement about a single bridge.
2. The study has considered three pillars of growth management planning: Land Use Planning, Financial Planning and Infrastructure Planning. The document presents only Land Use Planning. The public would like an opportunity to comment on the full report. Where is water in this document? Water was to be an integral part of this study.
3. This is not "a long term growth outlook." The timeline is 2031 – is this realistic as a future plan? By the time recommended changes to policy, regulations and guidelines are in place this is basically going to be a 10-year plan. We already have 5 years planned with developments that are approved but not yet constructed. So this essentially covers the following 5 years.
Infrastructure planning requires a much longer time horizon even than 2041.
What were the real reasons for the planning horizon only to 2031 and not to 2041, which is the time frame for the Provincial population targets? The rationale given in the report is that the County is appealing the population targets. However, planning appeals are currently the norm, not the exception to the rule.
4. The growth strategy is based on another 7,070 jobs in Centre Wellington. Historically, the Township has not met its economic development targets. This employment target is not realistic.
5. How and when will the existing private services be integrated into the municipal water service? The large number of households in the Fergus-Elora urban area that are on private wells pose potential risk of aquifer contamination as well as the prospect for future interference with municipal wells. Although not in the immediate plans, providing municipal service for these areas is the preferred option. This GMS plan keeps all of the private wells as they are, and leaves that problem until after 2031.
6. The Strategy recommends that Community Hubs be identified in the official Plan to accommodate employment growth. With this plan, it is not clear that sufficient efforts have been made to protect the vital economic and heritage downtown cores.
7. Since the information is available, why was the report not updated with the most recent even higher population forecast and the Statistics Canada numbers released in February 2017. These new numbers could have been added to the text even as a footnote.

In one of my first and favorite undergraduate psychology courses, we read Thomas Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (1962). Kuhn helped us to see that scientific progress through the accumulation of knowledge (which we believe to be fact) is not as solid and linear as scientists might believe. Rather, there are cycles of learning across history. Every so often we will be challenged, leading to a paradigm shift where what we believed to be absolutely true might be completely discarded. After such a shift occurs, the way we look at knowledge in a field is never the same again. This important academic lesson has everything to do with Native health and "Good Medicine" today because the paradigm from which we are working determines what we think the problems are, as well as what we think is possible in terms of interventions.
To return to wellness we must honor our Indigenous wellness paradigms.
What do we think of when we hear the word "therapy"? Living in the modern world that we do, some may think of psychological treatment that they would receive in a clinic or hospital. Others may think of AAmeetings. We must recognize that these are interventions that are based on the western European paradigm of illness and diagnosis, in which an individual is experiencing "symptoms," and treatment draws upon scientific knowledge to reduce those symptoms. Now, placing ourselves in history, what did our ancestors do for therapy? Those who still practice traditional Native culture may think of medicine people who use plants, herbs, or other natural remedies. Of course this would not be called therapy, but rather something like medicine or healing. Taking it even further, let's imagine our ancestral nations when they were flourishing cultures. What might we discover? Images reflecting the "Masters of the Plains" may come to mind; societies in which all goods and practices were tied to nature in every way. I am suggesting that these images do not only reflect visual scenes or cultural practices, but that they also demonstrate a health and wellness paradigm. That is, living well meant there was no separation between nature and the people. We knew our place within nature; we knew that we are nature. As such, we honored and learned from our relatives, such as the horse nation, buffalo nation, and silent nation (plants), about living in balance. The extent to which we currently see ourselves as individual people, separate from nature and each other, is a sign of our adopting a western European paradigm as a result of colonization. However, during this current generation, as prophesized by Black Elk, many Indigenous people are reclaiming their own worldviews and using these for healing. With humility, I genuinely believe this is what Black Elk saw when he spoke of us "Mending the Sacred Hoop" at this time (Black Elk & Neihardt, 1932).
"Siya'ka said that once, when hard pressed on the warpath, he dismounted, and standing in front of his horse spoke to him, saying:
'We are in danger. Obey me promptly so that we may conquer. If you have to run for your life and mine, do your best, and if we reach home I will give you the best eagle feather I can get and the finest red cloth, and you shall be painted with the best paint.'"
(Densmore, 1992)
A return to wellness for our people—overcoming all the "risk factors" and health disparities we hear so much about—will require us to honor our Indigenous wellness paradigms. In this direction, there has been a movement of horse culture-based wellness and education programs in many tribal communities. Most people call it "horse therapy."
Our relationship with the horse nation is deeply rooted in our shared history. According to the origin stories of various tribes, horses originated here in North America and came to us as relatives and as a gift from the Creator, making it a sacred relationship. After migrating around the world and finally returning with the Spanish in the 16th century, the horse nation and tribal people together changed the cultural landscape of North America. We were "Masters of the Plains" and we developed horsemanship skills that have become legendary and iconic. As a result of this relationship, tribes were able to prosper in terms of food, clothing, and other goods. Indeed, for some tribes, horses became actual currency or wealth because they were the key to all other resources.
Nearly all aspects of life depended upon or happened in conjunction with horses. Hunting was obviously transformed with the speed of the horse; hunters could now hunt larger game like buffalo and travel greater distances to expand hunting regions. Because they were so treasured, the best were kept in lodges during times of danger. Children's early introduction to social responsibility and independence often took the form of caring for and riding horses. Adolescents publicly demonstrated character development, as well as their physical fitness and coordination, by training horses and through mastery of horsemanship games. Among many tribes, young men proposing marriage ceremonially offered horses to the father of the bride. In another ceremony, families honored the accomplishments of relatives or loved ones in the highest way by giving away horses on their behalf (Horse Capture & Her Many Horses, 2006).
Sadly, part of the process of colonization and assimilation included the removal of our horses and the ensuing decline of the horse culture lifestyle. The loss of our horses is parallel with the loss of our culture and the trauma we have suffered in many ways. However, with amazing resilience some have managed to maintain this sacred relationship with the horse, passing the knowledge on within the family.
In recent years, numerous tribal individuals and organizations have begun to acknowledge our historic connection to the horse as a legitimate form of intervention in our communities. Awide variety of programs that can be broadly described as horse culturebased initiatives are all ultimately moving in similar directions. Some have begun within the criminal justice system, rehabilitating incarcerated youth with horses. Some honor their ancestors and strengthen their future through honoring rides such as the Sitanka Wokiksuye (Big Foot Memorial Ride) and the Dakota 38 Ride. Others are leading traditional horse societies which offer youth and families societal roles, purpose, and activities year-round. Many tribes are hosting traditional horse games and races, often sponsored by individual families within communities. And many are offering cultural horse camps and natural horsemanship training mentorship.
What is formally called "horse therapy," or equine assisted psychotherapy (EAP), is now a well-recognized branch of mental health. Various certification programs exist, and their host organizations provide resources on their websites and through the networks of people who have experience with EAP. Many tribal groups have attended these trainings and attempted to culturally integrate them in their home communities. At this time, there is one organization which provides training and certification in an approach to healing with horses that is based on traditional Native understandings and spirituality, the Medicine Wheel Model of Horsemanship (Whiteman Jr. & Two Bulls, 2016).
The horse is gifted with a sensitivity that helps us by mirroring our emotions.
Each of these models recognizes that the horse is gifted with a sensitivity that helps us by mirroring our emotions. Our interactions with a horse will reflect what is true in our lives, and help us to rebalance ourselves. At the same time, their way of being, and our interacting with them in nature, makes this process natural and easy. In the Medicine Wheel Model, we recognize this is because when we are working with the horse, we are working "spirit to spirit."
While typical academic institutions may not combine psychology and agriculture, this pairing makes all the sense in the world from the Indigenous wellness paradigm. At Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College (NHSC), we offer a variety of psychology and animal science courses based on horse culture wellness, and we are in the process of developing a degree program in the field. Students in these classes even spend time on a ranch, learning experientially with professors and horses.
NHSC also offers a horse nation outreach program for the community at large that includes weekly family horsemanship nights open to anyone interested in connecting with horses or wanting to learn to ride. These classes are highly attended. Unlike some health interventions, there is never a need to provide incentives to increase participation. On the contrary, parents often approach us with interest in the program. In addition, we partner with other community groups for events such as healing rides and horse games and races. Finally, because the Three Affiliated Tribes on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation has a rich history of rodeo and is home to many rodeo legends, we have developed an NHSC horse nation rodeo team.
But is NHSC's horse nation program effective? Does it work? From a contemporary scientific community perspective, there is considerable research to support horse culture-based interventions (EAGALA, 2010). Studies show the positive effects on individuals participating in a variety of horse programs. From a community- based research outcomes perspective, which is also consistent with a more holistic view of wellness, we too have seen considerable change within our community as a result of our horse programs.
Surveys from the program show significant increases in confidence. In the evaluations, students were asked to describe in their own words what the horses have taught them. Answers indicate that the program is meeting certain needs. One student wrote, "I learned that it is always good to 'center yourself' before working with horses or animals/people in general because they will feel your calmness and are able to connect with you quicker." Another noted, "I learned to be a leader, as opposed to being bossy."
When we are working with the horse, we are working "spirit to spirit."
Horses also help people process difficult experiences that they may not feel comfortable sharing with others. One student wrote, "The story about the horse's scar hit a soft spot for me because I was scarred as a child." And because horses reflect the true energy and emotion of a person, they teach us about authenticity. "The horses taught me to be more honest with myself and others. They also taught me to be patient and that I am capable of doing more than I thought," one student testified. Perhaps the most common response we hear is that of generally being uplifted by the spirit of the horses. "When I go out to the ranch, I feel like I'm able to get my emotions back in balance," a student revealed.
Students also note that life lessons learned from the horses carry over to other parts of their lives. One respondent shared this anecdote: "[A woman] was approaching me aggressively, I immediately remembered working with the horse. I felt like moving her out of my space and I was able to resolve the situation in a good way." Finally, there's the spiritual impact, as related by this teen girl who exclaimed, "I feel amazing, I feel like I can do anything!"
Horse culture-based healing and wellness efforts all across Indian Country are part of a major movement happening right now. It is a paradigm shift toward natural ways to live well. It is being documented by many. Be a part of the movement and consider how wellness and healing might be redefined in your community. Is it allowing the earth to heal us through gardening? Is it realigning our vibrations with song and the drum? Is it uplifting the talents of Native youth athletes or performers? The healing power of the horse meets all of these tests and so much more. With the wisdom of our ancestors, and the inspiration of our children, the answers lie within each of us and we can come to thrive once again.

Jim Commerford: President and CEO for YMCA of Hamilton Burlington Brantford
1. If you could pick anyone, who would you pick as a business mentor?
Galen Weston Sr. — balanced very successful business growth through expansion of sales with philanthropic giving
2. What business or leadership book would you most recommend?
"Lean In" by Sheryl Sandberg — It is not just a business book for women, it is a must read for all business leaders who recognize the importance of women in leadership roles
3. What advice have you received that has helped you the most?
If you have to choose between being smart or being lucky … pick luck every time.
4. What would you do if you felt no fear?
Take a year off and ski the world
5. What/who makes you laugh?
Terry Cooke — as president of the Hamilton Community Foundation, he has a great sense of humour in his speeches and use of social media. You never know what he is going to say or write.
6. Where have you visited that you would like to return?
China — an amazing country with a tremendous history and culture. I spent two weeks in China several years ago and would love to learn more.
7. What is your favourite spot in Hamilton?
I love being around water, so it is Bayfront Park — a great place to run, bike or sit and look at the lake.
8. What is your guilty pleasure?
Potato chips — I love salty snacks
9. What did you learn from your first job?
Working with great people makes all the difference. Not only does it help the organization, it makes coming to work every day very rewarding and fun. I have been very fortunate to work with wonderful staff and volunteers.
10. What is your favourite hobby?
Running … much slower and shorter distances in recent years, swimming and downhill skiing
11. What do you do to wind down from work?
My favourite place to wind down is the cottage.
12. What's your favourite meal to make or eat at a restaurant?
I love all international foods, especially sushi, Thai and Indian. If I am cooking, seafood is my favourite.
13. What makes you nervous?
Year-end financial statements. Despite a great finance team, year-end results are never guaranteed until the audit signs off on the statements.
14. How do you motivate people?
I think strong personal relationships and a real understanding of your staff team are two important areas to motivate people. Of course, never underestimate the self motivation of your team … so sometimes it is simply ensuring that you don't get in their way.
15. What is your biggest pet peeve?
Unfairness. It irritates me when people are not fair, to themselves or others.
16. What are you good at?
I like to analyze things and look at different perspectives and options. Process and understanding is important to me.
17. What do you want to work on?
Sometimes I worry about spending too much time on process, which may adversely affect quick decision-making.
18. What is Hamilton's most valuable asset?
There is no question that Hamilton's most valuable asset is the people who live and work in Hamilton. We have a very caring city, with people willing to work together in building a stronger community.
19. If you were to describe your company's mission in one sentence what would it be?
Building healthy communities. Our focus, in partnership with many others in the community, is to improve the health of children, youth and families.
20. What is the biggest challenge for small- to medium-sized businesses today?
Working in the world of charities, one of the most significant challenges is possessing the capacity to effectively and efficiently address the significant challenges facing our communities. As complexity increases, greater staff specialization and expertise is required. Also, successful charities must be willing to work with other charities, businesses and government in a collaborative manner. All this must be accomplished during some challenging economic times and in a more stringent regulatory environment.
21. How do you balance your life?
I am fortunate to really love my job and the people I work with. Therefore, it does not seem like work. Through work, I attend many national or international YMCA meetings that allow me to learn about the world we live in and the social, political, economic and environmental challenges we face. As an avid skier, I am able to get away on ski holiday every year.
22. Who is the leader you look up to the most?
There are many leaders in the businesses, charities and politics that I admire. So, I will stay within my family. It would be my father, whose wisdom, compassion and patience I have always admired.
23. Which economic trend do you pay attention to?
Precarious employment and youth unemployment. We have the best educated generation in our history, facing some of the most significant challenges in the recent decades. As a country, we need to improve our performance in this area to prevent even greater societal challenges.
24. What do you like to do for entertainment? TV? Movies? Books? Videos?
Reading newspapers and books, but my favourite are newspapers. On holidays I will frequently buy two or three daily papers and read each one.
25. What makes a good employee?
A good supervisor. Every organization will have its "stars." The great organizations are the one's able to elevate the performance of average staff to excellence.
26. What do you think people would be surprised to know about you?
When I travel on holidays, I rarely plan ahead. On a recent trip to Europe, my wife and I arranged a hotel for the night we arrived and the night prior to leaving. All other travel plans/accommodations were determined on a day-to-day basis, wherever we felt like heading.
27. What advice would you give to young entrepreneurs?
Pursue your dreams and take chances. My stepson is working on a career in music, something he loves. Whether this will be his "career," is less important than his decision to try and succeed in this challenging business.
28. What is the main thing you do to stay healthy?
I stay active, through running, swimming and skiing. This is part of my routine because I enjoy doing these activities and I feel better after a workout.
29. What is your favourite expression?
My team tells me that my favourite expression is "I have two comments to make …" This helps me in always focusing on the larger picture or outcomes … even if I have three or four comments.

How would you go about making a fluffy Raven Guard list? By fluffy I mean scouts, assault marines, drop pods and few/no tanks, but still be fairly useful as an all-commers-list.
This is my first attempt, but since I usually play Chaos in its myriad forms, I'm not 100% on the SM fluff and units.
Librarian w/ epistolary upgrade and jump pack
Chaplain w/ jump pack and melta bomb
10 Tac w/Flamer & missile launcher in pod
10 Tac w/Flamer & missile launcher in pod
10 Scouts w/sniper rifles & missile launcher & locater beacon
Dreadnought w/dccw & multi-melta in pod
Fast Attack
10 Assault marines
10 Scout bikers w/grenade launcher & locater beacon
This should come in at around 1700 or there about, giving room for some upgrades on sergeants and the like.
What do you think? How could this be improved?
HQ: You are only alowed two HQs. I would drop two of them. a single HQ should be enough. If you take shrike make the entire army out of units that can use fleet. bikes, dreads and tac squads dont really need fleet but assault squads, combat scouts and assault termies love it. If you dont like those units drop shrike and take a librarian.
Troops: ditch the scouts. drop pods dont need a beacon as they can deviate and avoid enemy of freindly units.
Elite: take a HF as well.
Fast: add pw or pf to the assault marines. scout bikes are not great. take some MM attack bikes
Quorn! - Protein for the Protein God.
Ah, of course. I'm used to fielding 2 daemon princes and a greater daemon
But how about using scout bikes to deep strike terminators and/or assault marines behind tanks and enemy lines? With Shrike that could perhaps work?
Tacticaly you dont need them to do that. assault marines shouldnt deepstrike. They can get to virtually anywhere on the battlefield by the end of your turn two. deepstriking assault marines and termies ont be able to charge until turn 3 assuming they turn up right away and there are some enemies around.Assault termies deploy 24" away at start, move 6"+D6" turn1 and 6"+D6"+6" turn 2. Who needs to deepstrike as the worst that can happen is that you assault t3 with an average move of 18+3d6+6.
Deepstiking assault termies are good in dawn of war missions and a single locator beacon on the dread's drop pod should do it.

Tricky Homonym Help on the Way
Yay! My new little help for writers is on Amazon in all its chartreuse, red, and yellow glory! As a member of VBT, I know it is something the group can benefit from.
Yep, you can now order a copy to put in your briefcase and read on the fly! It's the Great Little Last-Minute Editing Tips for Writers: The Ultimate Frugal Booklet for Avoiding Word Trippers and Crafting Gatekeeper-Perfect Copy.
This is a booklet. It isn't intended to be a complete reference for every sneaky homonym in the English language. For one thing there is a nice list of those pesky guys in The Frugal Editor (www.budurl.com/TheFrugalEditor). It's small partly because it isn't intended to be drudgery. It's only 54 pages, so it's a small, easy-to-read dose of some of the most difficult word trippers, not the ones you learned in the fourth grade. And it is written with a bit of humor to brighten the experience. If you don't learn anything from it, send it back to me and I'll refund your money.
Buy the paperback at www.budurl.com/WordTripperPB. It is only $6.95. You support a friend (me!) and you brush up on skills for your writing career. What could be better than that?

L. Diane Wolfe and The Circle of Friends Book V ... Heather
Ten years associating with a motivation training system and experience as a foster parent gave her the in-depth knowledge of relationships, personality traits and success principles. Wolfe travels extensively for media interviews and speaking engagements, maintains a dozen websites & blogs, manages an online writer's group, and contributes to several other sites.
It's my pleasure to feature Diane's newest book, THE CIRCLE OF FRIENDS BOOK V … HEATHER:
When confidence turns to frustration…
A new beginning awaits Heather Jennings. The position at Clemson means she will finally realize her dream of coaching basketball. Heather is ready to focus on her duties, using sheer force if necessary to prove her independence.
Sadly, her triumph is hampered as her father and greatest advocate lies dying of cancer. Battling her grief, she must also deal with a sister who appears incapable of responsibility or achievement. And once basketball season begins, a talented but cocky player who resembles her in every manner challenges all that remains of Heather's patience.
Heather's life changes when she encounters a man capable of handling her bold and feisty attitude. Straightforward and smug, he entices her to date him, and despite his gruff nature shows a great capacity for compassion. However, the last thing Heather needs is a serious relationship with a man equally fixated on work and opposed to marriage…
Release date: March 16, 2010
Publisher: Dancing Lemur Press, L.L.C.
6x9 Trade paperback, 282 pages, Fiction/YA

Letter to a Christian Nation by Sam Harris (Book Review #107 of 2014)
Letter to a Christian Nation
I suppose this book has been so popular because its shorter than Hitchens or Dawkins' works. Harris brings no new arguments-- he doesn't bring any arguments, really. He claims at one point to be arguing on behalf of thousands of years of science and philosophy but does not cite any of it, particularly philosophy. There have always been philosophical debates about the existence of God, and plenty of philosopher apologists-- Harris is apparently unaware of all of them. As such, he does not argue with thousands of years of philosophers who held a Christian world view, he is only arguing with a caricature of a modern Christian. He apparently is also unfamiliar with logic as the book is filled with contradictions. Harris argues, as Hitchens and Dawkins do, that plenty of atheists are "moral people" who show "compassion" but Harris does not define what morality is. The reader can conclude that Harris himself determines what morality is, or perhaps the 51% majority do? In that sense, Harris makes same mistake as the others-- he has no objective basis on which to make his claims of morality. Christians, on the other hand, make moral claims on the belief that there are absolute truths that are known, one of which being that life is precious because man is created in the image of God and therefore worthy of respect.
Harris, however, opens the book by praising "Christians" who reject absolute truths, which is a major problem for him. Hitchens, for one, rejected liberals or moderates who did not believe in a resurrected Christ who literally lived, taught, died, and was resurrected because that is what the Bible teaches and is the bedrock of orthodox Christianity. Harris basically accepts anyone who marginally believed there may have been a Jesus as a "Christian," which again defies logic. Why hold up as enlightened liberals who reject thousands of years of scholarship and archaeology to reach their own conclusions on who Jesus was based upon their own subjective opinions? It's not clear.
Since Harris alone defines truth in his world view, he can reject as "ignorant" anyone who does not agree with him. He's horrified that the majority of Americans believe in a God, a judgment day, miracles, etc. He does not acklnowledge that thousands of PhD-holding biologists, astrophysicists, anthropologists, etc. are also in this majority and have been for centuries. His preferred method of setting laws and education would be a tyranny of an elect, enlightened few who share his identical ideas. Yet, he calls Christians "intolerant," not realizing that he is also.
Harris is also ignorant of biblical theology. He criticizes his Christian caricatures for taking verses out of context when he is guilty of the same. He is completely ignorant that orthodox Christians, protestant, Catholic, etc., believe that the Old Testament is interpreted through the New, that all of it points to Christ. Therefore, he's completely lost in arguing Christians should follow the laws in Deuteronomy. Like the other new atheists, Harris sees much of the Bible as a prohibition of sexual pleasure-- prudishness for prudishness sake. (He also does not acknowledge that polls repeatedly find married Christians more satisfied with their sexual lives than non-Christians). He does not understand the Gospel, which is tragic.
The book is Hitchens and Dawkins lite, nothing more. The reader should check out Francis Schaeffer's How Then Should We Live for a look at how Western thought, including the humanistic atheism that Harris claims is "truth," developed. It's much better written then this trope and spans centuries of scientific and philosophical thought. I would also recommend William Lane Craig's Reasonable Faith, for starters.
It's worth noting that Harris shares a position with many evangelical Christians-- inter-faith dialogue is "useless." Harris writes that many on the Left in the West want to refuse to believe that religious wars happen, when most of the tensions we see around the world revolve around religion: Muslim vs. Buddhist, Christian vs. Muslim, Sunni vs. Shia, etc. Harris opines that it has more to do with religion than simply tribes or cultures. When a person's worldview leads him to conclude that he knows what absolute truth is, then everyone else must be wrong and part of the problem. Harris points to 9/11 and other terrorist attacks as examples of what happens when a group of even well-educated people demonstrate that they "truly believe in a God" and an afterlife. His comments about Islam have drawn criticism from many in America.
Still, Christians would do well to read these kinds of books to see what outsiders think of them and to examine certain statements they make that are problematic. These are the low-hanging fruit that the new atheists latch onto. Harris calls Christians to task-- if we really believe in a God and an afterlife, why don't we live with more conviction? If we believe in a God who is able to work miracles, why do we never pray for an amputee to regrow her limbs? I just wouldn't recommend this one as it's far inferior to Hitchens' God is Not Great. 1 star out of 5. Check out the one-star reviews from atheists.

Obama Touts Energy Investments During Stop at Electric Vehicle Plant
KANSAS CITY, MO — A big part of President Barack Obama's trip to Kansas City was to bring attention to federal energy investments, and his stop at an electric truck factor on Thursday highlighted what he says will be the foundation of the country's future.
Obama toured the Smith Electric Truck plant near Kansas City International Airport, a company which received a $32 million federal grant to jump-start production of their all-electric commercial trucks. The company employs around 50 people, and has already delivered the trucks to companies like Coca-Cola, Frito Lay and Kansas City Power and Light.
"My answer to those who don't have confidence in our future, who want to stop, my answer is come right here to Kansas City," said Obama in a speech to workers and others at the plant. "Come see what's going on at Smith Electric. I think they will be hard pressed to tell you that they are not better off that you would be if we had not made the investments in this plant."
The Smith trucks can travel up to 50 miles per hours while hauling more than 16,000 pounds of cargo, and have a range of around 100 miles between charges.
The president told workers here he expects public investments in clean energy to create 700,000 new jobs in the next few years. Smith says it plans to hire 50 more workers by the end of the year.
"I think the president is right on," said Don Nissanka of Smith Electric Vehicles. "I think the administration has done a good job of putting enough money into this economy right now. We're in a depression and we needed this money to fuel the economy and fuel the jobs. I see it happening. It's happening around the country."
The president told workers at Smith that he's convinced investments in new energy technologies, like what's happening at Smith Electric Vehicles, will enable America to emerge from the recession stronger than before.
"Instead of buying one or two trucks because it's such a healthy premium, with the grant we received, we're actually able to offset some of the costs of that vehicle," said Brian Hansel of Smith Electric Vehicles. "Now they're looking at buying 50 or 100 vehicles."

It takes a lot for a sex toy to get my attention these days. There comes a point where they all start to blend together. But when you're offered an 8″ hunk of swirled green and yellow silicone from an up-and-coming company, you say yes. Or I do, anyway.
I actually gasped out loud when the folks at SheVibe emailed me about the Godemiche Adam. The colors are arresting. The colorway I own is called "Gamma Ray" but the toy also comes in "Phoenix Rising," "Purple Phantom," and "Gold Member." If you wanna feel like an alien queen from Planet Glitterfemme, you could also get one in sparkly pink. (There aren't enough heart-eyes emojis in the world for this shit, frankly.)
Shape-wise, I wasn't expecting the Adam to do much for me. Its shaft is straight all the way along, and I typically prefer toys with a curve: a big curve for my G-spot, or a small curve for my A-spot. However, I was pleasantly surprised by what the Adam can accomplish.
Its coronal ridge is relentless. This is the type of drastic ridge that can either feel fantastic or painful, depending on your anatomy (and your level of arousal). When I'm properly turned on and lubed up, that ridge slides across my G-spot with every thrust, pushing and pulling against it until I feel like I might burst and/or squirt. But there are definitely times when I'm less aroused and it just feels like some sharp-nailed femme is ineptly fingering me. Be extra sure to take your time warming up for this dildo, unless you're a total pro. And pour water-based lube on that sucker. There's more...

The Greatest Gift I Possess; "The Poem of the Man-God" by Maria Valtorta
Article by Sister Christine Kabumbu
I have read books, spiritual books inclusive, I have never found a book so captivating, so inspiring so valuable than the Poem of the Man – God. I wonder what my life would have been had I not discovered this treasure which I found when I least expected it, in very strange circumstance. Blessed be the day I discovered the Poem of the Man- God. Blessed be the people who played a role in my discovering of the Poem of the Man -God. I find all I need for my salvation, in this book. I feel I have been given more than I deserve and I know, more will be demanded of me because I have no excuse. Whatever do I need really? My life saturated with the Word of God.
I no longer have a strong desire to visit Holy Land where I thought I would have a marvelous experience by being in the land where the Lord walked the earth. Reading the Poem of the Man – God has made me feel I have been to the Holy Land. I do not have a strong desire to have personal experience with the Lord speaking to me, I am a poor person but Jesus has spoken and appeared to me, in the Poem of the Man- God. What more do I need? My desire is just to one day see Him as He really is in Heaven.
Jesus is my daily Spiritual Director through the writings of Maria Valtorta. Whoever has interest in knowing things and mysteries of God ought to search for and read the Poem and other Valtorta books, they have everything. I am not hesitant to say; of all the books written on the face of the earth, the Poem of the Man- God is the greatest book ever written. I often ask the Lord why He has made it possible for me to discover this treasure. I ask the Lord to help me to utilize the material I have found to the best my limited abilities until I die.
Astronomical details in Maria Valtorta's writings were proven accurate. Theoretical Physicist Professor Lonnie Lee Van Zandt upon reading the Poem observed that in March of year 0033 Valtorta recorded in one of her visions seeing Jupiter, Mars, Venus and "stars of Orion: of Rigil and Betelgeuse, of Aldebaran, of Perseus, Andromeda and Cassiopeia and the Pleiades" along with a waning moon in the night sky. Using a complex Astronomical computer program, he conducted a stellar excursion into the distant past and discovered that this was only possible for two days in March of 0033. This astronomical scenario doesn't occur for many decades before and after those two days. Moreover, he discovers several other similar astronomical conformations. It would have been impossible for anyone in the 1940's to determine these astronomical alignments. These impossibly exact details "tax the credulity of even the immovable atheist more than the alternative that Jesus showed it to her. In the words of Sherlock Holmes, when you eliminated the impossible, that which remains, however merely improbable, must be true."
Researcher David Webster uncovered that Maria Valtorta named nine towns and villages not discovered until after her death

"I'm petrified," Jensine said to Hunter mentally, so those in the front seat of the car couldn't hear her.
"It'll be fine," Hunter said, resting his hand on her arm.
For the sake of selling the story, Jensine was in Valencia's usual limo with Hunter next to her inside and Jonathan was driving. The real Valencia had altered her appearance so she could be there and perform things Jensine couldn't, just in case she needed to display power.
Valencia sported a men's black T-shirt and a pair of baggy, ripped men's jeans. For the first time ever, for most of them, they saw her in military boots instead of heels. To top it off she'd also magically altered her hair to be long, straight, and blond.
"What if I can't pull this off? It's not like I've spent a ton of time with the crazy bitch to the point where I can imitate her!"

Consulting restaurant staff can take a lot of the pain out of dining out for people on a diet or with special needs, writes Jenny Tarran.
For most people ordering off a menu is not a complicated affair. You just end up choosing what you feel like eating.
Then there are other diners, the ones who tremble at the idea of ordering from a menu, be it due to a strict weight-loss diet, a medically imposed diet or an allergy.
Dining out doesn't have to be a scary affair and the first secret to a good meal out that doesn't tip the scales or include ingredients that could give you an allergic reaction is to ask before you order.
This may mean contacting the restaurant in advance if you suffer from a severe food allergy. While it may take a bit of time, that five or 10 minutes spent on the phone talking to the chef or waitstaff may save a lot of embarrasment, both for the diner and the eatery, when it's time to order.
If there are specific food allergies, talk to the chef about substitutes, ask how the food is prepared, and if your particular requirements can be catered for.
If your needs aren't too extreme then good waitstaff are your best friend when dining out. They should not only know the menu backwards, they should also have an idea of what ingredients go into the dishes and how they're cooked. If they don't know the details, the waitstaff should be able to approach the chef for you and find out.
Ocassionally a restaurant or cafe will have a menu so well set out that you don't have to send a list of questions to the kitchen.
Some menus describe the dish so well that it's easy to know if the food is baked, fried or grilled and what the sauce or dressing is made from. These menus are more likely to have symbols denoting vegetarian and vegan food, dairy-free and wheat-free options as well as healthy choice meals...

The Joys of Christmas Humor
From the Grinch to "Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer," Christmas humor is firmly entrenched in our culture. Ironically, there are those who take a bah, humbug attitude to the whole idea, insisting that Christmas is a serious holiday intended for celebration of the Messiah, not for something as frivolous as fun.
People like that have a point... on top of their heads. C'mon now -- celebrations are about having fun, aren't they? And I can't imagine that the Reason for the Season would mind us enjoying the lives that have been given us, can you?

Global fossil fuel divestment has doubled in just over a year
The scope of global fossil fuel divestment has doubled over the past 15 months, with institutions and individuals controlling just under $5.2 trillion in assets now pledging to divest.

The Government of Cameroon recently announced the adoption of a National LPG Master Plan to support increased liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) use for household cooking in Cameroon from the current 12% of the population to 58% by 2030 – the equivalent of 18 million Cameroonians.
This increased goal of more Cameroon households using LPG, instead of cooking with solid fuels like wood and charcoal, will help reduce both ongoing deforestation and harmful health effects of air pollution.
MARRAKECH, Morocco - COP22 closed with renewed calls to fast-track action and maintain the highest possible level of ambition in combating climate change, while ensuring universal access to sustainable energy.
This year's UN climate change conference was held less than a year after the Sustainable Development Goals came into force and the historic Paris Agreement was struck at COP21 – an Agreement that came into effect just days before the Marrakech talks opened.
Decentralised options for rural electrification are overwhelmingly superior to the grid in terms of economics and speed, Practical Action says in its Poor People's Energy Outlook 2016. Take a look at how mini-grids and stand-alone systems can change people's lives for the better.
The International Energy Agency's World Energy Outlook 2016 (WEO-2016) maps out scenarios for the global energy system by 2040, but the world needs to go well beyond its current policies and pledges to meet the promises of the Paris Agreement and the Sustainable Development Goals.
Business and policy leaders came together during the opening week of COP22 in Marrakesh for Energy Day to demonstrate action on global efforts to decarbonize our energy system.
Energy Day was part of a series of thematic days taking place during the Moroccan climate talks – hosted by Climate Champions Laurence Tubiana and Hakima El Haité – and held under the auspices of the COP22 Presidency.
"It took 21 years for nearly 200 countries to reach an agreement in Paris last year to put the brakes on climate change. Now for the hard part," writes Sara Stefanini in a POLITICO special report on COP 22.

The landmark Paris Agreement on climate change enters into force today, 4 November 2016, having crossed by a wide mark the threshold of being ratified by at least 55 countries and by countries representing at least 55% of global emissions.
"The Paris Agreement offers us a world with cleaner air, healthier communities, more jobs and energy for all. Now we must seize that better world - and leave no one behind," said Rachel Kyte, CEO of Sustainable Energy for All and Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General.
"Promises made must be promises kept."
The Paris Agreement on climate change enters into force on 4 November, 2016, having crossed the threshold of being ratified by at least 55 countries and covering at least 55% of global emissions.
The ratification process is continuing, with 92 countries completing this step as of 1 November. Check out progress with Climate Analytics' Ratification Tracker and see how many more countries have signaled they intend to ratify this year.
A new World Bank study outlines how Sub-Saharan Africa's struggling power utilities can be financially viable and at the same time make electricity access affordable for the poor.
Currently, only one in three Africans has access to electricity and for those who do, power outages can be common as cash-strapped utilities struggle to maintain steady, reliable supply because of lack of investment in their aging infrastructure.

It's always a good day when you go shopping! I went last week and got some super cute clothes – including a Vineyard Vines shirt that I am beyond excited about.
I love Vineyard Vines shirts, but I figured this long-sleeve tee would be the most versatile. I love to wear long sleeve shirts at the beach so I don't roast my arms, and it can obviously be worn in the fall and winter as well. Regular t-shirts are great, but this one is perfect. ❤
This is such an adorable dress! I wore it a couple of days ago to a party with Pink Converse and silver hoop earrings. You can pretty much pair it with anything, the grey is a blank canvas.
Coral is one of my favorite colors right now. This eyelet skirt is so vintage and fun – I'm still looking for the perfect shirt to wear it with, though.
I finally got some of those Nike Shorts everyone seems to have now. I feel so cool.
I hope you enjoyed my shopping trip and that you find some great buys of your own! Happy Shopping!
