She invites us to a place where full reliance on him is the only way to truly be free."—Korie Robertson, Duck Dynasty

About You Are Free
Have you bought the lie?
Many of us do. We measure our worth by what others think of us. We compare and strive, existing mostly for the approval of others. Pressure rises, anxiety creeps in and we hustle to keep up.
Jesus whispers, I gave my life to set you free. I gave you purpose. I called you to live in freedom in that purpose. Yet we still hobble through life, afraid to confess all the ways we push against this truth, because we can't even believe it. We continue to grasp for the approval of anyone that will offer it: whether strangers, friends, or community.
Christ doesn't say you can be or may be or will be free. He says you are free.
Dare you believe it?
In You Are Free, Rebekah invites you to:
• Overcome the exhaustion of trying to meet the expectations of others and rest in the joy God's freedom brings.
• Release stress, anxiety and worry, to uncover the peace that comes from abiding in His presence.
• Find permission to grieve past experiences, confess areas of brokenness, and receive strength in your journey towards healing.
• Throw off self-condemnation, burn superficial masks and step boldly into what our good God has for you.
• Discover the courage to begin again and use your newfound freedom to set others free.
Freedom is for everyone who wants it—the lost, the wounded, and those weary from all of the striving. It's for those who gave up trying years ago. It's for those angry and hurt, brilliant and burnt by the Christian song and dance. You are the church, the people of God. You were meant to be free.

The relationship of split between Jef Holm and Emily Maynard has been confirmed by the sources. People in their close quarters have confirmed that the couple is not together anymore. The relationship could last only for three months or so.
What went wrong between them?
Sources report that that Jef was thrown out of Holm family's vacation house as because he had caught upon "romantic texts" from some other man.
The man also was supposed to have relationship with his ex-girlfriend.
To club up the causes, "Sexting, cheating or Infidelity and disinterest" are supposedly the main causes of the split between the two of them.
Are these issues somewhere around our relationship too?
If you observe carefully, you will notice that these issues are quite close to every relationship. At least one of them surely stings our relationship if not all. Check back and see if you're becoming a boring partner hence losing attention of your loved one.
Analyse if your spouse is moving and getting attracted towards someone else because there is no fire left in you or the relationship on the whole.
Also sit back and think if there is a enough trust between both of you and it is compact enough not to allow a third person make an entry. Is your relationship prone to moving back to the older bonds?
For this entire if the answers go against your bond then think of ways to bring things back on track.
How can you revive your relationship?
There are efforts needed to drive away the evil feelings and thoughts away from your relationship.
Understand, with time we all start taking our relationship casually and stop making efforts, which makes things dull and boring. Make it a point that there are always pleasant surprises in store for your spouse.
Also, this boredom may lead to "an extra marital affair" or "infidelity". If that is the case then it would be rather more challenging to keep the bond alive. Unless you mark your presence in your spouse's life and a constant one, you will not be indispensable. In the absence of marking your own importance, you may lose your significance in his or her life.
Trust your partner and display this trust in every form you can.
In case you're not the first love of your partner, make sure you replace the older memories with your love and care and fill the bond with everything possible that broke the previous relationship of your partner.
getting into a relationship is a decision which affects the rest of our lives, losing it could be easier but to keep holding on it is quite challenging and rewarding too. The reward could not be expected right away but the efforts we make are well noticed by our spouses and sooner or later they do respect us for the same. One gets the due credit of handling the relationship well and enjoying a long term bond as well.

This week from Pen of the Damned comes WHAT'S INSIDE by Christopher A Liccardi
"Did you do it, did you open that thing?" William asked. Shelly was sitting on a splintered tree that had fallen during the storm. She didn't take her eyes off the box. She'd been holding on to it since the storm.
"Not yet, but I want to open it. Don't you think I should? I want to see what's inside," she whimpered.
Shelly found the black box, with its weird writing and odd symbols while they were digging through the debris. What they found was this ancient relic Shelly had inherited from her mother.
From the second she touched the box, she'd been unable to do more than sit, cradling it like an injured child. She hadn't eaten or slept much in days and wouldn't leave it long enough to go with William to the shelter.
"Honey, you need to put that damn thing down and get some food…

Great Job carried out. On time and very friendly. Would recommend.
What a thoroughly nice and helpful guy. Changed my brake pads quickly, quietly and efficiently on my drive way at 9:30 at night. Offered lots of advice, topped up my oil because he had very kindly (and without prompt or payment) checked the car over and took it for a test drive once the brakes were finished. A genuine guy who believes in customer service. Can't recommend Charlie enough. I will definitely be using him again.
Great service.Nice guy. Installed a brake caliper on my Audi A3 quickly and efficiently. Would definitely recommend.
My clutch went on my 2006 Ford Fiesta and due to not being able to get time off work I needed someone to come to me and do the work. Charlie understood my situation and worked around the time I would be in in the morning and then again when I was home from work. Charlie is genuine and goes out of his way to work around when is good for you. The work carried out seems to be of extremely high standard and the clutch has never felt better! Really can't recommend him enough. Thank you again :)

Hi all, Is there any official guidance on relocating a working Galaxy installation?
Ours is currently up and running using PostreSQL, with everything installed under /opt/galaxy-dist I want to move this under /mnt/galaxy (a RAID partition which will be shared with a cluster). What needs to be done to make this move? In particular, I am worried there may be some absolute paths in the database which would need updating. In principle if only relative paths are used, everything will be fine... Any advice? Thanks, Peter ___________________________________________________________ Please keep all replies on the list by using "reply all" in your mail client.

There's several other areas in which I've either done substantial work in the past, or I've started developing my ideas reasonably seriously for future work. I've divided it here into three main areas: evidence & policy, alcohol research, and other Social Policy.
Truth, power and critique: the role of social science
I have a continued interest in the relationship between evidence and policy - both in terms of how it works in practice, and how it should ideally work according to practical considerations and ethical principles. I think this is a crucial area for researchers to think more about, so I teach aspects of this Masters students on the research methods course I teach on (SO832)
I've presented some initial thoughts on this at the Social Policy Association conference in 2008 and 2009, titled 'Against evidence-based policy: over-claiming social research and undermining effective policy' and 'Should researchers make policy recommendations at all?' respectively; and am presenting at a workshop in Edinburgh in June 2014. The best starting place, though, is the Queens' Anniversary Prize lecture I gave at York in Feb 2014, available via YouTube. I'm planning to conduct future research in this area, and I'm always interested in speaking to potential collaborators on this too.
Alcohol work
From 2004 to 2008 I worked as the Policy and Research Officer at the Institute of Alcohol Studies (IAS), and since then I've done further work with the IAS and the World Health Organization (WHO)'s European Office as well as within academic research teams. I was lucky enough that I began working at the IAS when they had been commissioned by the European Commission to write a report on the health, economic and social impact of alcohol in Europe, which became the 450-page volume 'Alcohol in Europe' (Anderson and Baumberg 2006). You can listen to a podcast about the process of writing the report on Libby Ranzetta's Alcohol Policy UK blog.
Since then I have primarily worked on four different areas of alcohol policy:
Alcohol, wellbeing and pleasure
Pursuing a long-standing ambition of mine to look robustly at all aspects of drinking, both good and bad, I'm currently just completing an analysis of the relationship between drinking, happiness, and pleasure. Parts of this work are empirical (are heavy drinkers happier?), while other parts look at the implications for policy. This is a small part of a much larger MRC project led by Prof Petra Meier (see also below).
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and the role of 'addictive' industries'
By 'addictive industries' I mean alcoholic drinks producers and retailers and the similar enterprises for gambling and tobacco. The IAS funded me to conduct a project on alcohol in 2007, which (because of the demands of my PhD thesis) included some working papers then I never had time to turn into journal articles. although the first part of this has been published in Alcohol & Alcoholism and can be accessed here.
My main work on this, however, is leading on a 1m Euro work package within the EU-funded ALICE RAP project that - with partners from the UK, Italy, and the Netherlands - will develop this work tobacco, alcohol and gambling during 2012-2015. The first publications should emerge from this project during 2014; please check any of academia.edu, this website and the ALICE RAP website to keep updated.
Economic aspects of alcohol policy
The 'Alcohol in Europe' report reviewed social cost studies to try and estimate the cost of alcohol in the EU, and since then I have maintained an interest in economic contributions to alcohol policymaking. The two main publications I have done on this are the 2006 paper in Drug and Alcohol Review and a World Health Organisation (European Office) best-practice guide to economic cost studies on alcohol. I also wrote a paper titled 'The value of alcohol policies' that was commissioned to support the WHO Expert Committee on Alcohol Problems in 2006. I continue to do small amounts of work on this topic, partly linked to valuing alcohol and pleasure (see previous point), but also collaborating with other researchers, including ongoing work with the RAND Corporation following on from a Home Office report.
International trade law and alcohol policy
There have been suggestions that international trade agreements (like those that constitute the EU, or the World Trade Organisation agreements) constrain countries in making effective alcohol policies. I have two 2008 publications co-authored with Peter Anderson that look at this: a paper on the WTO in the journal Addiction, and a paper on the EU in the European Journal of Public Health.
I am also involved in a more minor way in other areas of alcohol research. Firstly, I am involved (as a co-applicant) in a current MRC project on 'Alcohol Policy Modelling and Evaluation', which is being led by Prof Petra Meier at the University of Sheffield (and incorporates the work on alcohol and pleasure above). Secondly, the EU-funded ALICE RAP project (see under CSR above) also includes a work area that tries to look in an interdisciplinary way at addiction, again led by Prof Petra Meier.
Other ideas in Social Policy
As seen in my founding/co-editing of the Inequalities blog, I'm keen to find better ways to theorise the nature of inequality. I presented at a British Sociological Association post-graduate symposium on 'Do we need a grand theory of inequality?' in 2011, and some of my embryonic thoughts are available in blog posts here, here and here. I'm currently developing a proposal with others at LSE to develop this both theoretically and as a blueprint for empirical work.

Maena. Perth knew little of the planet. Foremost was the fact that it was volcanic. And the small amount that wasn't a wasteland of magma was a range of inactive volcano.
She knew it was populated, but the total sum of citizens was the size of a small city on most planets — not that she was here to meet people. Rather she was here to meet one person in particular.
Onley Xiangu had encouraged her to come here. For a while she wondered if he would become her Master — or rather her latest Master, for she'd had a few. Sith were the most common in her development and many had disappointed her. Not that she'd fared much better in the First Order, where only one Knight of Ren had shown any interest in developing her. Talon Ren had shown her how to wield a saber and she was thankful for that — but she'd learned nothing about dark-sided magic and that was what she yearned.
Most of what she understood was self-taught, either from the library she'd found from the notes in the old book she'd found in Darth Bane's old mansion. There were no special secrets in the book, just lists of places or people or organisations. Some were straightforward and others were encoded.
And one such puzzle had led her to a planet — for that was all she was able to decipher from the clue, and there she had met Onley. Was that foretold by whoever made the notes? She doubted it and planned to return to the planet one day to continue her exploration. But for now, she'd taken the advice of the tattoo'ed man and sought an audience with his mother. For she was apparently well versed in dark-sided magic.
So she landed her ship at the designated coordinates and quickly disembarked. She was greeted with the view of offices — not the usual meeting place for Force users, who seemed to prefer temples or historic venues. But it was irrelevant to her where they met, it was knowledge she sought and she would give whatever was required to achieve it. And she had questions too — like how to use tattoos imbued with the Force.
She glanced down at the prosthetic arm that was in place of her own flesh and blood — the price she paid for acquiring her sabers and passing what she felt was a rite of passage. In her opinion it was not an expensive trade — she'd gladly do whatever it took to develop her understanding and power. For she had knowledge greater than her ability to wield it and needed guidance not from an enthusiastic amateur, but an expert.
And she now presented herself to someone the galaxy considered as such, following a droid escortto what appeared to be a suite of offices, where she presumed she would meet Matsu Xiangu.

To the untrained eye, there was little to set Perth from the average galactic citizen. Her eyes were different — the lack of pigment in her irises a little disconcerting if you sought direct eye contact, but this feature spoke nothing of the person she was.
Her clothes were dark and nondescript, her overall appearance clean and tidy without being in any way seeking attention. Nor did her looks suggest she shunned the limelight — she was simply another humanoid in a galaxy full of them.
But if you knew what to look for, there were signs that she was not typical, and certainly not average. Her gait and carriage spoke of a military upbringing and her casual glances suggested she sized up the room on a regular basis, checking out exits, potential threats as well as opportunities.
Her lost limb was not precisely typical — but the replacement was functional, as opposed to ornate. One day she might get around to replacing it with a synthetic prosthetic, but for now, the functional but ugly robotic version served her well.
Never judge a book by its cover. Which could no doubt be said of the woman Perth was introduced to. And the young dark-sider never considered making snap judgements about trappings of success (or otherwise). The building was more than functional, it had a style — modern, crisp, clean. Maybe that was an indication of her host's personality. Only time would tell.
Her host remained seated when Perth entered the room — although she appeared to give young woman her attention. Although with powerful dark-siders, you never knew how much of that attention you really wanted.
Perth approached the desk and remained composed and quiet. They both knew who each other was, and up to a point why Perth was here. All that remained was for the Atrisian to begin the conversation and — like a true warrior — Perth would identify where the path was leading…who promised what and most importantly, what the price of success and failure might be.
Perth sat as requested, a small smile playing across her lips as she nodded her acquiescence. It was a friendly gesture, no malice or playfulness intended. It seemed the polite thing to do. Perth was rarely subservient, but she knew what manners were appropriate for the situation.
And then the woman spoke and Perth allowed words and potential meanings to sink in before she responded.
"Thank you for seeing me." There were those manners again. "I am a warrior and was part of the army back on my home world. But I found the Force. Or perhaps it found me? Regardless, I seek to learn."
"I have knowledge. Not great by your standards I suspect." This was no flattery but a simple expression of what Perth perceived to be a fact. "And it outweighs my control and by some way my power. I have learned things that are wonderful, but strip me of my energy in a matter of seconds."
"You see my development is based upon self-teaching, but that only takes you so far. I seek the secrets of dark-sided magic. I believe I have a natural affinity. And I am prepared to pay the price of exercising the powerful rituals of the dark side."
"Illusions interest me and I was inspired by your son to begin to investigate the potential of using tattoos to facilitate this aspect of sorcery. Practical markings that come to life in the mind of those I wish to influence. But more than that." Her eyes flashed a sulphuric yellow as she spoke, the excitement in her voice subconsciously calling on the dark side. "I wish them to inflict real pain on others, to have a physical as well as mental manifestation."
"Of course, this is just a wish. If it is to become a reality or remain a whim I believe will be down to you. If you are prepared to accept me as an apprentice."

Perth knew her place. The power that her host was exuding was palpable to the young dark-sider but by the same token, she knew she was not invited here just to be toyed with. If Matsu wanted her dead…well, she'd have expired already. Perhaps the training might kill her, but that would not be the intention but merely an unfortunate side-effect. And for Perth a fatal one.
So she treated her host not as an equal, but as someone who she should respect, be wary of — but not be outright frightened of. That would be counter-productive and would hinder her development. So she paid full attention and minded her manners — as a soldier would to a superior officer, and in particular one that had earned their rank.
And she listened now, her head cocked slightly to one side as she took in both the words and the meaning. The conversation went in a direction she had not expected — Matsu's son had said little of his mother, or her methods. But given the young Force-user had sacrificed a limb just because it seemed the right thing to do at the time, she was no stranger to the concept of making a sacrifice. Because the offer was unexpected, Perth gave it a thorough consideration before responding.
"Loyalty I grant unequivocally. Respect for your instructions is similarly given freely. I shall act in your interests for as long as I am your apprentice. I anticipate gaining from this situation and understand it is only right for you to do so too. So I accept these terms."
Matsu then moved and Perth followed her with her eyes. And once she had heard her task — perhaps a test or initiation event — she closed her eyes momentarily and spoke carefully.
"My knowledge is based on various teachings I have come across as I have travelled the galaxy. But in terms of illusions I have sought out the work of Naga Sadow. I know he used technology and talismans but I have neither and rely on Sith magic."
"I usually project the illusion into the mind of the victim but I suspect that would not work with someone such as you. So I will need to generate a visible, lifelike astral projection. Although my reading on the subject suggests that if you call on the Force, the image will dissipate from your perspective."
Perth remained seated and ran her eyes up and down Matsu's form. Replicating from memory relied on an accurate recall, but if she could see the intended object — in this case a person — then she was confident the image would be faultless.
Perth closed her eyes and when they opened, her iris were a deep shade of yellow. She wanted to apply the tip Matsu had offered but her focus was on the illusion and she did not want too many variables to deal with, given the size of the task.
Standing, Perth gestured with her hands. She weaved her ringers in a complex pattern in the air, reaching deeper to connect with the Force. Typically she would enter her victim's mind at this point — often tapping into subconscious thoughts or memories.
But instead, Perth drew on the power of dark-sided sorcery, and projected an image from her own mind into the space between the two women. The entire process took less than a second.
Initially it was a ghost of an image but within a few moments it became more realistic. It was essentially a mirror image of Matsu — Perth hadn't looked to make any obvious changes to her look.
"Can you see it?" Perth asked, hoping her trepidation hadn't transferred into her voice. Perth could view the apparition, but it didn't mean Matsu would.
Posted 09 August 2017 - 06:12 PM
Posted 13 August 2017 - 10:10 AM
Perth was comforted that her illusion was visible to the Sith Master — at least for a while. It was a difficult thing to work with, especially as she had no formal teacher.
But from what she had read, she believed she had a natural affinity for the dark side — which was not common. She was learning to summon arcane energies and to conjure power. She believed she was destined to become a sorcerer. And she saw it as a future, not as a present. She had some knowledge but appreciated she needed guidance to turn her potential for invoking the spells she had learned into a genuine focus and channel of her power for maximum effect. For she sought to achieve a power beyond the abilities of most dark siders.
And it was not as if she was a complete novice. From ancient texts she had learned to twist and torment the thoughts of weak mortals. She could make them see nightmares as reality and rip their minds apart with little more than a simple thought and a gesture. But her warrior training taught her that honour came from overcoming the strong and not the weak. And for that to happen she needed Matsu and accepted she would have to give something in return.
So she was open to any proposition and knew the woman she now hoped she could call her Master would have a plan. And Perth wanted to be a cog in the machination — however small. "I have nothing pressing in my diary," she responded, "So I'm ready to roll."
She was intrigued at what lay ahead. She presumed the Sith Master had pre-planned the journey and suspected it might form part of her 'audition' for the role of Apprentice. The young dark sider was willing to jump through as many hoops as possible to gain tutelage from the Altrisian and figured the quicker she was accepted, the faster any training would begin.
"Oh, and will this be a practical trip?" she asked — the curiosity in her voice evident.

Ellen DeGeneres explained that her guest, Anthony Carbajal, is battling ALS at just 27 years old. Ellen sent him to iHeartRadio Music Festival where he got to talk to all kinds of superstars. He joined Ellen on stage to talk about his experience.
He said it was an incredible experience and the person that stood out the most was Chris Martin from Coldplay. He explained that he loves their music already and he's "so genuine" and he has a "man crush on him."
Ellen: Anthony Carbajal & Chris Martin, Ryan Seacrest & Taylor Swift
Ellen then shared the taped piece of Anthony at the festival. The clip showed him speaking to Chris Martin and he told him how he was battling ALS. He then asked Chris about the charity that he does, and Chris said he was there for Anthony and didn't need to plug anything except for his new line of hair care products. No wonder Anthony liked him so much! How sweet!
Anthony also sat down with Ryan Seacrest, and they both put on Ellen sunglasses. When Anthony chatted with drummer Tommy Lee, he told Anthony that he watches Ellen all the time and said that Anthony's story was incredible.
Anthony also got to talk to Taylor Swift, who said that she saw his video and thought it was "so touching." She also said "I really respect it when people just tell it like it is. There was no facade. I get so emotional when I think about it." Taylor even said it was an honor to meet Anthony. Wow!
Ellen TV: Anthony Carbajal Taking Shots With Usher
When Anthony sat down with Usher, he said he was down for whatever. Anthony told him to roll some dice and then whatever it lands on, that's how many shots he has to do. "Why didn't you tell me this before I said I would do it," Usher joked.
He rolled the dice and got a three. Anthony and Usher then did three shots.
Ellen: Celebrity Autographed Rock Auction For ALS Research
Anthony also got to chat with Bastille, and explained to them that Ellen sent him with one of her rocks from her backyard in order to get signatures on it. They were going to auction the rock off for ALS research. Bastille, Alicia Keys, Weezer, Pete Wentz, and Chris Martin all signed it.
Anthony asked Chris Martin what some of the weirdest things he's ever signed were and he said he's signed just about everything, including children, new cars, and people's "particulars."
Liam Payne from One Direction, Fergie, and 50 Cent also signed the rock. Anthony even got to take selfies with 50 Cent and Hilary Duff.
Ellen TV: Anthony Carbajal Celebrity Selfies
That's not all the stars that Anthony got to talk to! He also sat down with Meghan Trainor and Macklemore, who called Ellen his "long lost friend."
At the end of the clip, Anthony got a big hug from Chris Martin.
Ellen showed the rock that everyone signed and said she was going to sign it as well. If you're interested in trying to purchase the rock, visit her website.
Before Anthony had to go, Ellen surprised him with a frame filled with all the selfies he took while at the music festival.

Thanks Shell for the inspiration on this one!
It comes up every year, how old should my child be before they start school? It's a great question. 4? 5? What if they are an "October baby" and the cut off is Nov 1? Or what if school is cheaper than daycare? What if…
Well here is my $0.02! As a retired special needs middle school teacher the majority of my kids in the "assisted learning programs" were the YOUNGER ones in their grade and the "gifted" kids were the older ones. Coincidence? Possibly one could have said that maybe in the first couple of years, but after 10 years… it was still the same.
There is a wonderful part in the book The Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell that talks about hockey players' birthdays. It is fascinating to note that the older the child, the better they performed. Now of course there are always exceptions, but generally, that is the case. Why you ask? It's the same for school as for sports, older kids (even by a couple of months) are generally, bigger, stronger, faster, more experienced, have a higher thought process, quicker with analysis etc…the list goes on.
So my advice? Wait, if there is no life and death reason to start early, wait until you absolutely have to enroll your child. One more year being little may make all the difference to their entire educational career…and so much longer after that!
PS: Personal proof: My oldest just turned 16 last month and is in the 10th grade. Many of her classmates just turned 15. She is in the top of her class both academically and socially.

|A rust disease was first observed in New Zealand on leaves of alder (Alnus viridis) in North Canterbury in 1980, then on Alnus spp. in Nelson in the 1990s and Auckland in 2012. The causal agent was determined by molecular techniques to be Melampsoridium betulinum and not M. hiratsukanum, a species that is currently spreading throughout the northern hemisphere. A rust on Betula nigra and B. populifolia, and earlier specimens from B. pendula, were also confirmed as M. betulinum.

|The diversity of cercosporoid fungi in northern Thailand is very high. Eighty-five cercosporoid species were found in northern Thailand including (i) 84 species of true cercosporoid fungi: Cercospora (34), Passalora (7), Pseudocercospora (42), Zasmidium (1); (ii) One morphological similar fungus. Three new species were established, namely Pseudocercospora christellae, P. cratevae and P. radermachericola, while 23 cercosporoid species represent new records for Thailand. In this study, 50 species are described in full descriptions and illustrations, and another 35 species are only listed additionally because they have been described in ―Monograph of Cercosporid from Laos‖ or have previously been recorded from Thailand. The data show that the diversity of cercosporoid fungi in northern Thailand is very high; Meeboon (2009) recorded 166 cercosporoid species from this region.

Field approaches of bacterial biocides and essential oils as integrated control measures against peanut crown rot disease

|Lemon grass, thyme and rose essential oils have been found to have inhibitory effects against the mycelial growth of Aspergillus niger under in vitro conditions. Results indicated that all essential oils treatments significantly reduced the linear growth of A. niger. Complete reduction was obtained with thyme and lemongrass at concentration of 0.5%.Moreover, essential oils used to coat seeds and sown in soil drenched with B. subtilis resulted in a significant reduction of crown rot incidence of peanut, at both pre- and post-emergence stages under field conditions. Rose, thyme and lemongrass in descending order could reduce the incidence of crown rot at both pre-and post-emergence stages at the two successive growing seasons 2011 and 2012. Higher protective effect against crown rot incidence at both pre- and post-emergence growth stages was observed when essential oils integrated with B. subtilis as an applied soil treatment than that of individual applied treatment. Also Rhizolex-T as seed treatment could significantly reduce disease incidence over the control treatment. As for the harvested yield, all treatments were significantly higher than that in the control treatment. The treatments of essential oils as seed dressing plus the bio-agent B. subtilis showed higher yield production than those treatments using an essential oil or B. subtilis alone. The present results show that application of essential oils in integration with the bio-agent B. subtilis may be considered as an applicable, safe and cost-effective method for controlling such soil-borne diseases.

text: Lovably zany and filled with hummable tunes, The Pirates of Penzance has all the ingredients for the perfect farce: a damsel in distress, a sexy pirate king, an adorably dopey Major-General, and a series of delightfully absurd mix-ups. Still one of Gilbert and Sullivan's most loved shows, this comic opera follows a young pirate's apprentice named Frederic as he's about to complete his term of servitude on his 21st birthday. Only one snag: He was born on a leap year, which means he's technically had only five birthdays to date -- and won't have his 21st until he's 84. Will he ever be free? Will he win the hand of the (supposedly) beautiful Mabel? Find out when New York's Gilbert & Sullivan Players bring one of the funniest musicals of all time to Morristown's Mayo Performing Arts Center.

Low Fat Apple Bread
READY IN: 1hr 35mins
Recipe by dale7793
I made Secret's Apple Bread, but I made so many changes that I decided to post it as a separate recipe! This bread is very moist and does not suffer from having the fat removed. It is a chunky homey sort of bread that is high in fiber too! Also makes fantastic muffins or mini-muffins.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 1⁄2 cups plain flour
- 1 1⁄2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 egg
- 4 egg whites
- 1 1⁄2 cups sugar
- 1 cup applesauce (unsweetened)
- 1 tablespoon vanilla essence
- 3 diced apples, with skins (granny smith or similar)
Directions See How It's Made
- Mix the flours, cinnamon, baking soda, salt and baking powder together in a medium bowl.
- In a large bowl beat the egg and whites, sugar, applesauce and vanilla.
- Stir in the dry ingredients, followed by the apples.
- Stir until just combined.
- I baked this in a slightly larger than normal, lightly greased, loaf pan and had enough mix left over for 8 mini-muffins.
- This mix makes great muffins as well as the apple bread.
- Cook muffins for about 20-30 minutes or until done in a 350 degree oven.
- Bake the loaf for 1 hour in a 350 degree oven.

Bullying in the Workplace: Who Bullies Whom?
So who are the bullies? And who are the targets? It's easy to envision a quiet, introverted person as the victim of an outgoing, brash person. But it's not that simple.
According to Arlene Vernon, HRxaminer, targets are often the best and the brightest: the most technically skilled, empathic, kindest – but unlikely to fight back. Incivility and aggression are often fueled by individual differences, such as introversion and extroversion. That doesn't necessarily mean that most cases involve extroverts bullying introverts. Actually we don't know that, as there is little research on this area at this time.
However, bullying is most often from supervisor to subordinate, where even a fairly confident employee is reluctant to fight back. Given that extroverts are more likely to be promoted to leadership positions in the U.S., there is a chance that the scales are tipped in that direction.
But according to Vernon, bullying doesn't have to be overt hostility. It can be covert; an introvert leader would be in a position to deny training or promotions, apply different standards, or block leave or time off. It can also be an employee-to-employee situation, as in malicious gossip, making false accusations, and stealing credit.
And what are the outcomes of bullying? Known results include stress, anxiety, depression, anger, aggression, panic attacks, and even suicidal thoughts, all negatively affecting a company's wellness program. Even onlookers of bullying may be negatively affected.
But that's not all. There is increasing evidence that bullying is affecting workplace productivity, perhaps massively. Inability to concentrate or make decisions and absenteeism take their toll on productivity. Royal & Sun Alliance, the largest commercial insurance company in the United Kingdom, has suggested that absenteeism alone due to this kind of distress may cost businesses approximately eight to 10% of a company's profits.
Then there are the costs of employee turnover, estimated at costing at least one-half of the employee's salary to replace him or her. An estimated 70% of bullied employees leave, while an estimated 20% of witnesses to bullying also do so.
Rehabilitation of stressed employees, as well as legal costs, all add up.
Finally, a company can find its reputation damaged. People talk to other people. An unhappy employee is probably seeking comfort from friends and family, who then talk to others, and so on.
If a company develops a bad reputation for bullying, it could conceivably affect sales to the public.
So what are the solutions?
We should follow the example of Scandinavian countries and Canada, which have enacted legislation against workplace aggression, just as there is now against sexual abuse in the U.S., allowing victims to report incidents, go to the union and take legal action.
Training employees to recognize bullying would help create a climate in which bullying is less invisible.
Most of all, companies should work to create an environment in which individual differences are not just tolerated but celebrated, creating a cooperative and positive environment for all.
Are you aware of workplace bullying? Have you had an experience you'd care to share?

Are you carrying some introvert baggage?
Personal note
Being different from other people is always stressful, and we're all different from one another in a variety of ways. It leads to misunderstandings, and even worse, to some of us evaluating others of us as being deficient in some way.
I often find myself being a mediator between people who don't understand each other, and I particularly love standing up for people I believe are in the position of underdogs, particularly when I'm very familiar with the underdog position.
So here's my latest attempt to make the world a more peaceful place.
Are you carrying some introvert baggage?
Many people do; some of them are introverts, the others are extroverts.
The basic definition of an introvert is of someone who is very sensitive to external stimulation and needs to withdraw periodically because our energy is depleted by too much stimulation, whereas an extrovert is someone who goes out and seeks stimulation, often social stimulation, in order to be energized.
That being said, there are a lot of assumptions that go along with introversion, some of which I call "introvert baggage." Not all of the people who carry this baggage are introverts.
In "12 Most Expeditious Ways to Alienate Your Introverted Colleagues", Beth Buelow describes how non-introverts (ok, extroverts) unwittingly make life difficult for introverts and shut down any effective communication because of their assumptions. (See her full article HERE)
Included in her list are non-stop talking (to deal with the threat that silence may actually occur every now and then?), saying "You're awfully quiet, aren't you? or worse yet, "You're shy, aren't you?; forcing introverts to work in groups, socialize when they don't want to, or basing an evaluation of their work solely on degree of participation; and assuming that the quieter behavior of an introvert is due to everything from indifference to stupidity to plotting. Whew! All that from the simple fact that some of us need to replenish one's energy in private every now and then.
But introverts are complicit in this whole thing, too. Instead of recognizing that what we are dealing with is an energy problem, and should be handled by setting aside quiet times to refuel, and by choosing our activities wisely, too many of us spend our lives in a kind of defensive crouch, trying to avoid human contact altogether, then wondering why we don't feel loved or appreciated.
Too many of us say, "I don't want to waste my time on idle chit-chat; I just want to have meaningful conversations and relationships, too."
Well, I've got news for you. It doesn't happen that way. People need to connect; some of us more carefully and in smaller groups. But we need to connect: to feel healthy, to feel whole, to feel love and joy, and yes, to do business, too. Connections don't happen the minute two pairs of eyes meet; they take time to develop.
Here are some guidelines for getting rid of that extra baggage , and being a proud and confident introvert who can connect with others without being sucked into their lives:
- Make sure your energy drain isn't at least partially due to poor health habits, or to depression, for which you might want some counseling.
- Select your outings carefully; time them when you can be sure your energy is at a high enough point to cope successfully;
- Find things that energize you to do in advance. I have music I love that energizes me. Often, when going to an event where I will need to meet people and be "out there" I play it in the car,
- Cultivate social skills so that when you are out you can meet others, find ways to connect, and determine whether that other person really is worth knowing. Ask questions that allow them to do most of the talking. You don't have to do it all the time. If you do (Gasp! Horrors!) get into a conversation you don't particularly enjoy, you don't have to continue it. You don't have to take the person home, for heaven's sake.
- Do not assume that you will know immediately whether or not someone is suitable to be the Prince or Princess of Your Heart, or the Emperor of your Entrepreneurship. Whether in business or pleasure, a period of conversation and dating is essential to establishing a deeper relationship.
- Finally, recognize that the more you set up these little encounters with others, the less threatening they will be because:
– You will get better with practice
– Each episode counts for less in the general scheme of things, as one awkward experience can be diluted by the sheer numbers.
Oh, and extroverts: When we withdraw, don't automatically assume we're rejecting you. Learn to stop and listen when you are around a quiet person. We can be gold mines of imagination and creativity and occasional oases of peace in your life.
The Confident Introvert
"What are they afraid of?" my department manager used to ask after meetings in which a number of department members sat, silent and resentful, while he was unaware that his habit of springing surprise agenda items and asking for an immediate decision was very upsetting to these talented, educated introverts. Understanding, appreciating and utilizing the skills of introversion are foreign ideas to some – even to introverts. Now you can read about it in

My husband and I stayed at the cabin for our anniversary. It was amazing! We loved sitting on the back porch and sitting on the swing. Listening to the stream outside the bedroom window lulled us to sleep. The bed was incredibly comfortable! There are many things to do around the cabin, but most of all we loved relaxing in this serene cabin. Thank you!
Before you book, know that you will need a car capable of climbing steep hills, tight turns, and traversing gravel/dirt roads! But all that is worth it, because once you come around the bend to the cabin peeking out of the manicured landscape, you've found a safe place. The cabin is, in a word, perfect. It has everything you could want in a relaxing getaway: a hammock, a fire pit, rocking chairs, large living spaces, a screened in back porch with a swing, next to a babbling brook.
The bed was huge and very comfortable, we need to find out where they bought those pillows! The kitchen is beautiful, I wish we had stayed longer to be able to actually use it and cook. It has a cute eclectic collection of dish and glassware, along with small appliances to use like a crock pot and waffle maker. We had no cell phone service (Sprint & AT&T), which was just fine with us, and we never turned on either of the 2 TVs. We just sat out back for hours, listening to the water, the rain, the wind, and the frogs and crickets. It was an amazing place to be near nature but with all the comforts of home.
As for checking in and out, Barbara met us at the door with the key which we traded for the balance on the weekend, and we left it in a secure location on the way out. It couldn't have been easier to come and go as we pleased. She was very responsive throughout the whole process, from answering questions, to booking it, to giving good directions. She recommended a lovely dinner spot, the Hideaway Cafe, I would highly suggest checking it out! Live music, great views, good food for good prices, and friendly locals.
The cabin is convenient to downtown Asheville and the Biltmore mansion, it was about a 30 minutes drive. I'm so glad we found this place. We have definitely found our home away from home, and hopefully this will be our anniversary "spot" that we return to year after year!
We recently enjoyed a visit to Cedar Cabin with our 2 dogs. The cabin was comfortable and up to date. It features a full, modern kitchen with a dishwasher and washer/dryer for clothes. The King bed is comfortable yet firm. As you lie in bed you can enjoy the sound of the mountain stream just outside the window. The roomy bathroom has a double sink that my wife and I both enjoyed having. No taking turns when it came time to brush our teeth! You can enjoy the sounds of nature day and night sitting on a rocker or swing on the screened in back porch. We enjoyed the burbling brook, chirping insects and croaking bullfrog. The outside is nicely landscaped and includes a fire pit. The cabin is conveniently located near the amazing Chimney Rock and beautiful Lake Lure. It is close but less convenient to Black Rock, a quaint mountain town with lots of eating/drinking options. We also visited the hipster town of Asheville, NC for it's mind boggling collection of breweries and restaraunts and the famous Biltmore Mansion. This is where a bit of inconvenience enters the story. Anytime you drive to or from the cabin, you must endure miles of winding country roads. Navigating the narrow roads with multiple switchbacks and hairpin turns , especially at night can be challenging. Plan in extra time for any kind of travel. In conclusion, my wife and I enjoyed our stay at Cedar Cabin and our dogs were almost as comfortable as at home. Thanks, Tony and Barbara.
We enjoyed the decks for reading and also had a wonderful time sharing it with a couple of friends for a BBQ dinner one evening. So peaceful to sit outside in the screen porch and hear the tiny waterfall nearby and all of the peepers downstream.
Well laid out cabin with very nice kitchen and lots of space.
Loved the area and eventually even got to enjoy the winding mountain roads. Beautiful base for us as we have friends in Asheville and Hendersonville. We even took a day trip to the awesome bluegrass festival in Wilkesboro called Merlefest.
We had a great time. It was very peaceful and relaxing as always. I love being able to hear the little creek outside the window at night.

My husband and I just got back from a lovely weekend away at this cozy cabin in the woods. We found it to be just as described. A full kitchen, comfortable sofas and bed and large bathroom. It had everything we needed. The location was wonderful. Just minutes away from Chimney Rock which provided us with an afternoon of hiking to the rock and then to Hickory Nut Falls. Asheville was close enough for us to go and enjoy touring the city and visiting a number of delicious restaurants.
If we can plan another trip to this area, we hope to stay here again.

What is motor control? Edit
Motor control refers to how biological organisms (like people, dogs, or snails) and artificial constructs (like robots) control the motions of their bodies in response to stimuli in the environment. While motor control is clearly a set of physiological processes in organisms, it is often conceived of as a computational problem. How is something or someone able to move to achieve various environmental goals? In human motor control, there are many sources of evidence to suggest that the motor system is organized into multiple hierarchical levels (e.g.,the action of individual motor units, agonist/antagonist pairs of muscles around a joint, abstract representations of discrete actions). Successful motor control results in movements that bring about desired/intended outcomes. These outcomes may satisfy numerous and sometimes competing goals (e.g., to remain balanced, to reach a hot cup without getting burned, to avoid obstacles, to move quickly and accurately, to minimize energy expenditure, to avoid injury or uncomfortable positioning) and different goals may be represented at different levels within the nervous system.
Although the exact number and type of levels/processes is not clear [REF], motor behaviors clearly exist along a spectrum that ranges from voluntary or intentional movements to more automatic or reflexive movements. These movement types are not necessarily exclusive, however, and the automatic/reflexive properties of the motor system may be important components of volitional control as well. A major question in the neurophysiology of motor control is "what" is being controlled, prepared or programmed in different areas of the nervous system. Theoretical perspective on motor control range from information processing models that are computational [REF] or psychological in nature [REF] to more physiologically based theories that try representational or "symbolic" approaches to control [REF]. Many of these theoretical perspectives are not mutually exclusive, but are based on different levels of analysis or designed to explain different experimental effect (e.g., continuous versus discrete movements). Even for seemingly very simple movements like maintaining standing balance or walking there is considerable debate in the scientific literature and, arguably, less is known about specialized movements that characterize expert athletes and performers. Despite this ambiguity, centuries of research into the neural control of movement have greatly improved our understanding of how the healthy motor system functions and how to treat disorders of the motor system [REF].
Hierarchical control models Edit
Many of the processes underlying human movement take place without explicit awareness on the part of the actor, but many movements are still voluntary. That is, an actor makes a conscious decision to act and this desire ultimately leads to movement. Yet, the exact parameters of the movement are usually unknown and not directly controlled by the actor. Therefore, motor control is the problem of which transformations intervene between the thought of attaining a goal and the muscle activations that result in movement. Models and theories of motor control differ, but the majority if not all the models are hierarchical in nature, suggesting that the goal of the task is loosely set at a high level (sometimes referred to as the task-level), a sequence of movements is specified at a lower level (i.e., response programming), and at the lowest level a specific pattern of muscle activation allows for execution (execution-level). Although for clarity we treat these various levels as independent, it will be clear from the discussion below that these processes are neither serial nor mutually exclusive and our distinctions across levels serves primarily to aid thinking about the various problems involved in controlling movement.
Response selection: Intending and planning to act Edit
Response programming: Preparing the movement Edit
The history of response programming in motor control dates back to the late 19th/early 20th century. Programming is thought to be the process preceding voluntary actions, whereby action plans are organized and potentially stored in cortical or subcortical structures in the brain, ready to be released when a response is required. Evidence for programming is that people are unable to inhibit actions when they are close to their release point, studies of RT show that as complexity of a movement increases so does RT, stereotyped movement features are observed when an action is repeatedly executed, suggesting that at least part of the response is programmed in advance and is not influenced by feedback (so termed open-loop control), and features of a movement remain when the movement is unexpectedly blocked or is initiated early due to a startling acoustic stimulus (known as the start-react effect).
Execution: Making the movement Edit
At the execution-level, there is little or no access to awareness and conscious control as this level consists of detailed specification of motor unit recruitment in both time and space. The type of representation used at this level is not clear, but there is research to suggest that rather than programming individual muscle contractions or joint torques, the execution-level relies on stereotyped relationships/patterns of muscle activity referred to as synergies or "motor primitives". Some neurophysiological data suggest that for simple movements much of execution-level programming occurs at the level of the spinal cord. Electrical stimulation of the spinal interneurons in animals leads to relatively smooth movements of the whole effector towards a consistent endpoint. In contrast stimulation of the alpha-motor neurons, the next level below interneurons, leads to motor-unit contractions within a single muscle at a constant force dependent on the magnitude of stimulation.

Mermaid Wedding Dresses And Your Bridal Jewelry
Every bride needs to look her finest during the marriage ceremony day. However, the preparations for the marriage day can really take its toll on the couple, particularly on the bride so leisure is very important. More usually than not, it's the bride-to-be who could be very busy for the wedding preparations. Even though there's a wedding coordinator, she still has to oversee how issues are going. What happens is that, she forgets to take time for herself.
The indigenous peoples of the Americas have various traditions associated to weddings and thus wedding clothes. A Hopi bride historically had her clothes woven by the groom and any males in the village who wished to participate. The clothes consisted of a giant belt, two all-white wedding ceremony robes, a white wedding ceremony robe with crimson stripes at high and bottom, white buckskin leggings and moccasins, a string for tying the hair, and a reed mat through which to wrap the outfit. This outfit additionally served as a shroud, since these clothes would be vital for the journey by the underworld.
When all is alleged and done, the most significant role of the maid of honor is to be a good friend to the bride. The planning and preparations, and the precise wedding itself will be very disturbing and emotional for the bride. What the bride wants greater than anything throughout this time is someone who will provide a sympathetic ear and practical advice. This, then, is an important perform of the maid of honor.
The commonest cloth for wedding attire is satin. Satin is at once both shiny and durable. It's also simply produced, as, in at the moment's world, most marriage ceremony dresses end up being fabricated from polyester satin due to price. The thing about most satins is that they wrinkle straightforward, although the polyester satin probably wrinkles the least of another kind.

There isn't any have to feel intimidated by such a request – it's simply a manner for her to feel comfortable in a setting with someone she has by no means met before. If such state of affairs makes you're feeling uneasy, there may be nothing fallacious with bringing your individual interpreter along as effectively – in spite of everything, the key to a profitable date is that you both really feel relaxed.
