text: If you did, you have every right to be upset. The team did not live up to your expectations. Feel free to freakout, want to fire BP and start new and rebuild everything from stratch. I seem to remember most people saying in the offseason saying they would be pleased with a 9-7 or 10-6 year, possibly getting into the playoffs. This is before we knew that our division would have 3 teams strongly competing for a playoff hunt and that the AFC West would arguably be the toughest top to bottom division in the NFL. Congratulations .. the team has met your expectations. Here's to looking forward to hurdling the next goal in 2006. To those people who are throwing the biggest gripes are the ones who most adamently wanted to prove that they are "non rose colored glasses" fans and not afraid to question BP and predicted another 6-10 season because .. and I quote ... "Bledsoe aint no better than Testeverde". We've exceeded your expectations. Rejoice. Once again, in the offseason fans love to portray themselves as cautious, non-homers as they go with guardedly optimistic predictions of 9-7 and 10-6 to give the appearance that they are not the typical "rose colored glasses" fans. Then they proceed to completely freak completely the F out when their guarded predictions come to fruition, making them to look even more absurd than than the homers they tried to seperate themselves from in the firstplace.

-The Visit-
It's fall now. The leaves on their tree have already started to change, shifting from the usual deep greens to a myriad of vibrant reds and cool yellows. A brisk autumn breeze blows past, and a few of the leaves descend from the branches, slowly falling through the air to rest upon the ground. One or two of the leaves, however, are swept up by the wind, gliding away from the tree and down the hill, out of sight. The wind brings with it the crisp smell of autumn air, as well as the scent of rain and pumpkins.
Apart from the slight swaying of the tree limbs and the falling leaves, the only movement on the hill comes from a beautiful woman, her long crimson hair fluttering in the breeze, who is slowly making her way to the top. Her skin matches the tone of the horizon, which is a rich orange with the setting of the sun. The hill is steep, but she prefers to climb rather than simply flying to the top; this experience has a deep significance to her, and she'd rather feel the journey.
After some difficulty, she reaches to the summit. Their tree is silhouetted against the setting sun, standing out atop the hill. She sees her friends, sitting in their usual spot beneath the tree. She's brought them flowers, just like always, and just like always she rests the dead plants in front of them. She bends down and sits beside them, her mouth already open, regaling them with the stories of what they have missed. Her and Robin's child is already flying, and has said his first word, "Blorth." Cyborg is still leading Titans East, as he has been for the past several years. She tells them that she misses them, and that she has never stopped thinking about them. She tells them how she tells stories about them to her son, of how brave and kind they were. She feels a tear roll down her cheek and makes to wipe it away, but is distracted by a leaf falling from their tree. It lands on her head, and she laughs out loud, telling them how wonderful it is to see them again. Despite promising herself she wouldn't, she feels hot tears falling down her face.
She remembers the day they left, and can't help crying.
The deafening crash echoes through the whole tower, bringing with it unmistakable cries of pain and distress.
"Raven!" cries Beast Boy, who is up from his seat faster than any of them. By the time the others reach Raven's room he has already taken the form of a rhino and is in the process of knocking down the door. It falls away, revealing a terrible sight.
Raven is on her knees in the center of her room, surrounded by streams of dark energy, which are flying around her in the room. She clutches her head in pain, crying out once more.
"Raven!" yells Beast Boy from the doorway, his voice scared.
She glances up, a look of pain and fear on her face. "My powers..." she says, her voice strained, weak. "I c-can't, can't control them." She cries out in pain once more, her face distorted in anguish. Beast Boy makes to cross the room, but she cries out again, this time in warning. "No, it's too dangerous."
"I don't care," says Beast Boy, his voice defiant. He crosses the room, dodging the streams of energy, finally reaching Raven's kneeling form upon the floor. Just as he reaches her, the streams of energy merge, forming a solid, impregnable wall, preventing the others from reaching them. Beast Boy kneels down next to Raven, their faces close.
"You... idiot," she says quietly, a small smile appearing on her face despite the pain. "You have to go, before it's too late."
"Yeah, like I'm just gonna leave you here," he says sarcastically, managing to return her smile. "Not a chance."
"M-my powers... too unstable." Her smile fades and she winces in pain. "I can't control them for... for much longer."
Beast Boy put his arms around her, pulling her to her feet. "We have to get you out of her," he says, thinking. He's about to speak again when she interrupts him.
"You don't understand!" she shouts, pain and frustration amplifying her voice. "You need to leave now!" Despite her current lack of control, she manages to open a small, one-way hole in the dark energy bubble. "Go! NOW!" she shouts, her voice desperate.
But Beast Boy just stands there, his arms folded around her, not moving a muscle. A sad smile is on his face, and he whispers up to her, "I think it's you who doesn't understand. I'm not going anywhere."
Raven is confused, unable to understand his decision to stay. "But, but, I don't know what's gonna happen..." says Raven hesitantly, her voice cracking and tears rolling down her face.
"It doesn't matter," Beast Boy tells her quietly, holding her tight. "I'm not gonna leave you."
They find themselves staring into each other's eyes, holding one another close. Their lips meet briefly, for a first and last time. Then Beast Boy whispers into Raven's ear, "It's alright. You can let go now."
And she does, releasing all the power and energy she has been holding in for so long. For the first time in her life, she feels free. A genuine smile crosses her face, and she laughs. Beast Boy smiles too, and a moment later the couple is enveloped in darkness, holding each other in a tight embrace, before they vanish into nothingness.
Now she stands atop their hill, in the shade of their now aged oak tree, reading the words inscribed upon their marble tomb.
-Rachel Roth And Garfield Logan-
-Raven And Beast Boy-
-Best Of Friends Who Shall Be Missed-
-Gone, But Their Love Lives On-
Scrawled beneath the engraved words was another message, made by Cyborg the first time the Titans had come back to visit: "BBxRae forever!" written inside of a tiny heart.
The woman finally manages to stop crying, wiping the wetness away from her eyes. The sun is just vanishing beneath the horizon, leaving the hill in semi darkness. It is time for her to go. She leans down and places a small kiss on the white marble, just as she has done the past times she has visited. "Goodbye friends" she whispers, smiling sadly. "It was... glorious to see you again." And then she turns, walking away, back down the hill. And then she is gone.
MC: Finals are tomorrow and I'm writing about death. Interpret that however you want. Anyway, thanks for reading. =)

Gift Registry widget: Option allows to be selected during the process of loading the widgetAsked by Michel on February 09, 2016 at 10:22 AMI think I possibily found out where the issue is coming from :
When opening a form including gift registry widget, in my website, it takes few seconds before the form is available to place a subscription. A grey rectangle hides the options and a wheel is running.
If you wait until it's over, everything is OK, but if one "clicks" in this grey rectangle as the wheel is still running, it seems that it perturbs the system and you get the number of item "inscription" at the level created, not taking acount the number of subscriptions allready placed. However, the problem seems to be very random.
JotForm Support
I'm unable to replicate the problem on your website (http://www.lyonembellissement.com/nos-balades-1/mars-2016/bellecour-1/). I also tried it on the form itself. I see that the option is checked by default is the option has no more available slots.
I tried to click the option "Inscription" while the widget is loading. But it remains that same. Here's a screencast:
The error you might have experienced might be related to how you have embed your code, I'm mentioned in the original thread that you try using the iFrame embed code, that will prevent any script or code conflict that might be causing the problem. If you are still getting the problem despite using the iFrame embed code, let us know here and we'll check it further.
Thank you for your answer.
I am unable too at the moment to replicate the problem in my website. But, to day the looding time of widget in the form is very quick. When I noted the issue, loading time was much longer.
I'll follow your advice about Iframe embed code, hopping is the solution. But I am in doubt.
JotForm Support
Thank you. I hope the iFrame works. If you encounter the problem again after the changes made, please do let us know.

This is First World Fridays #FWF (check out the first FWF here) where I share the frivolous stuff that I allow to occupy my mind, and I turn it into an expression of gratitude. Please do it the same – in the comments, Facebook, Twitter, privately within yourself. Tag it #FWF (yes, I'm asking you to tag your silent prayers) and let's start a revolution!
My #FWF: Where to start?
- About half of my weekday mornings are a shitshow to get everyone out the door to catch the school bus two blocks away. No matter how early we all wake up, no matter how organized I am, two things remain true: a) at 2 minutes before must leave the house no one has their shoes on and , b) a 4 year-old has no grasp of the concept of hurry, much less the concept of hurry the eff up!
- I wasn't so good about my commitment to 30 days of 100 squats.
- I have no real plan for what to do with my kids this summer and it's stressing me out.
- I mean, really. There is a big yellow vehicle that whisks away my kid each and every morning and returns her safely every afternoon. It is free and — despite my scheduled hysteria — convenient.
- 20 days out of 30 isn't so bad and my thighs have not looked this good in years!
- I'll figure out the kid-summer thing. And if not, no one will die.
- I have a work life that allows me the luxury of being lackadaisical about child care.
Now your turn: What have you been fretting over this week? Was it really important? How can you turn those negative thoughts into acts or thoughts of gratitude. Please share in comments!
About #FWF: Each week I will post here about the annoyingly frivolous thing I worried about the previous week. I also vow to devote that energy into an expression of gratitude. Two things are true: Sharing openly that which we are ashamed of (in this case devoting time and energy to silly stuff) frees you from that shame, and gives others the permission to do so. Also: The only way to be happy is to be grateful. So post here, on social media, or privately within your family, circle of friends, or even within yourself your own #FirstWorldFriday. Remember – In one breath purge your silly worries, in a second express gratitude.
Never miss an offer or update.
Just pop in your name and email and be the first to find out what WealthySingleMommy is up to!
No B.S. I will never sell your contact info.

"Experience in A+E, ICU and General - 30 May -..."
About: Royal Surrey County Hospital Royal Surrey County Hospital Guildford GU2 7XX
Posted by Anonymous
My husband entered A+E by ambulance, I followed by car. En route, a doctor called me to discuss what I had sent with him re his current med, ie med for Nephrotic Syndrome and Waldenstrom's... On arrival I witnessed a hive of activity and discussions. Shortly, thereafter I was advised to depart because he needed to be strapped down and 'knocked-out'. The doctors gave me the impression they had all in hand. Thanks to the team who assured me they would do their best. The doctors all introduced themselves and their various disciplines, what a team of experts.
The following day I found him in ICU with Meningitis. Again, a terrific team appeared to be attending to him. Several days later he was in ICU General. Again, the treatment was terrific.
A while later he was in General, Millbridge Ward. Service reasonable, some staff so pleasantly cheerful, daily routine doctors only had time to deal with a max 10 minute patient/doc discussion, bathroom quickly turned unhygienic due to the mess left by patients, although I think the bathroom could do with an upgrade. Fortunately my husband was permitted to use the disabled bathroom late at night which he really appreciated.
I do however have one issue to raise, my husband had a catheter for a few days. He is not circumcised and when the catheter was removed, he found his foreskin very difficult to retract and clean. Could this be a case of the staff not willing to pull back the foreskin during their bathing routine? Well, it is better now. Given the majority of men today are circumcised, maybe staff could be told that those not, still need to have their private parts.
Many thanks for the good treatment offered by RSH, my husband is recovering slowly, as expected.
Response from Royal Surrey County Hospital 13 months ago

We take all concerns extemely seriously and if you would like us to investigate your husband's care further please email email@example.com.

Washington Post Staff Writer
Sunday, January 24, 2010; LZ01
Loudoun County Supervisor Eugene A. Delgaudio (R-Sterling), a longtime opponent of gay rights, is coming under increased criticism for recent comments viewed as homophobic and embarrassing to the community.
At a Board of Supervisors meeting Wednesday, five of his board counterparts used personal time to chastise the Sterling supervisor for anti-gay comments. One member, Andrea McGimsey (D-Potomac), apologized that Delgaudio made some of the remarks from the board dais.
At a Jan. 6 meeting, supervisors voted to expand Loudoun's nondiscrimination policy to prohibit bias on the basis of sexual orientation in hiring by the county. Delgaudio fought the change in the meeting, saying he was especially offended by language in the measure that sought protection for transgendered people. In the debate, he called the board's attempt to protect transgendered people "freaky" and "bizarre." In a subsequent newsletter to supporters, Delgaudio wrote that "if a man dressed as a woman wants a job, you have to treat 'it' the same as a normal person."
Those comments drew a sharp rebuke from the Loudoun Times-Mirror on Jan. 13. In an editorial, the paper scolded the supervisor for "sustained and unrestrained demagoguery targeting human beings." The paper called for an apology and went on to say it cringed "with embarrassment for the image of Loudoun" that the supervisor was projecting.
At the board meeting last week, other supervisors joined the criticism.
James Burton (I-Blue Ridge) said Delgaudio had "conducted himself in a manner best described in my opinion as histrionic, and his choice of words were and should have been an embarrassment to this board and to the county."
Burton challenged Delgaudio's use of the word "it" to describe transgendered people. "Regardless of how one may feel about the policy in question, there's no excuse for referring to fellow human beings as 'it,' " he said. The use of the word "it," he said, was "demeaning, insulting and dehumanizing."
Delgaudio responded, reading a revised statement with the word "it" taken out. He continued: "With apologies to real-life Tootsies" and "to all their defenders who are calling me all sorts of names and, like Mr. Burton, are saying I should apologize."
He also defended his "strong words," saying they were hyperbole. Turning to Burton, he said: "Lady doth protest too much, Mr. Burton."
Others on the board said they were unimpressed by the apology.
"Eugene, I think I know when I hear an apology, and I don't believe I heard one this morning," said Supervisor Sarah R. "Sally" Kurtz (D-Catoctin).
"Name-calling starts small and then it just escalates, and I see no positive results from it," she said. Supervisor Kelly Burk (D-Leesburg) also condemned his comments as schoolhouse-level antics.
McGimsey said: "I think that the actions and words of Mr. Delgaudio prove why we needed to institute the policy that we did the other day. There's clearly some people who need those kinds of policies in place."
She said she believed his language was dangerous.
"I want to apologize to anyone who has listened to this, and I'm very sorry this has happened up here. I'm sorry," she said.
At the meeting, Delgaudio tussled with Scott K. York (I), the board chairman, as Delgaudio sought more time to defend himself. Several times, York told Delgaudio to quit interrupting and to "hush."
David Weintraub, president of the gay rights group Equality Loudoun, said Delgaudio's comments in the newsletter crossed the line.
"That said transgendered people are not human," he said. "There is a tendency for people around him to roll their eyes and say, 'There he goes.' There is a possibility that this sort of performance is contrived or deliberate. I think he is losing control of himself. It's hard to tell."
In an interview, Delgaudio said he was in full control of his actions. "I do everything I do on purpose," he said.
He said supervisors have been "pretty blunt" in disassociating themselves with him, which doesn't bother him. He linked his behavior at board meetings to lingering resentment over a December political controversy involving Christmas displays at the courthouse.
"Why am I so animated?" he said. "I am still angry, and I am still mad about them taking away the Nativity. They think they can get away with it. They are being held responsible by me."

This blog post is the first in a month-long series about the bi-directional relationship of family systems and nutrition.I recall from my family therapy training hearing a particular supervisor continually repeat the phrase, "It's not about the content; it's all about the process." I employ the readers of this post to apply that same understanding to the topic of family systems and nutrition, for the purpose of this post is to consider the process of feeding and dining together, not the content of the food itself.
Statistically speaking, more than one-third (35.7%) of adults reading this post (located in the United States) are obese;1 for those readers who have children, 31.8% of them struggle with being overweight, and 16.9% are obese.2 I note these statistics because every single person reading this post can either relate personally to these statistics or loves someone who can. Food is not only meant to be life-sustaining, but also should be enjoyed and experienced socially.
Think back to the last time you had your favorite food served to you… your ultimate favorite food in the world. Think back to how the food looked on your plate. Was it served hot or cold? Was there steam coming off of it? What did the presentation look like? Who cooked it for you? How did it smell? Could you smell it cooking in the kitchen? Does the smell remind you of any warm memories when this same dish was served? Now, recall getting ready to take the first bite of your favorite food. Who was with you when you were served the dish? Did you have to use a knife to cut it? Did you scoop it with a spoon? Remember how all your senses were preparing to taste this food, your favorite food.
Finally, you take a bite, slowly allowing the flavors to absorb into your taste buds, remembering the familiar texture of the food in your mouth. Then you swallow, and smile knowing that there is more where that bite came from. You look around at the other(s) with you, expecting their reaction to be as blissful as your own – to enjoy in the experience of sharing this meal together. Our family and community in many ways determine which foods are purchased, how they are prepared and served, and the dining atmosphere where food consumption takes place. All of these elements employ family systems theory and elements of process that can ultimately impact the experience of feeding and eating.
The purpose of this post is to briefly introduce the dynamics around the process of feeding. This blog is not to discuss "food" itself, or to blame anyone for their (mis)use of food. Additionally, I want to be mindful that our friends and colleagues in Nutrition and Food Science are better equipped to talk about the "content" or nutrient density of food.
1. Food is meant to be enjoyed WITH others: A family that eats together, stays together
The process of eating is meant to be a social experience where family members can join together not only to eat, but also to commune about how their day went. This is a time, set aside routinely, that can serve as a touch point for parents and children, romantic partners, extended family, and others to communicate about their daily ups and downs. In fact, we know that the benefits of family meals include decreased chances of developing, substance abuse, depression, eating disorders, and obesity. Specifically, youth who participate in family dinners with their parents have better overall academic performance, higher self-esteem, a lower risk of teen pregnancy, and greater sense of resilience.
2. Food ≠ love, Feeding = LOVE
We have been taught by our parents, and our parents-parents that love is often shown through the foods we serve at meals. Love motivates us to prepare food for our family, often cooking for hours before it's served, so that the final product can be enjoyed by all. This can become a challenge in families when a child or partner may refuse to eat a food, critique how a food is prepared, or simply may not be hungry. It's not hard to imagine how upsetting it could be when a family member refuses to eat or critiques the food that is prepared, lovingly, perhaps for hours-on-end on top of a long workday.
It's important to remember that the process of feeding is still employed even when food consumption may not take place as smoothly as expected. For example, if your school-age child states, "I hate when you cook green beans!" or your partner remarks, "This chicken is a little burnt this time." These aren't personal insults or an indication about how much they love the person who prepared the food for them. We need to encourage our clients and patients to not get caught in a trap where a fight over food might take place. The time we get to socialize with our families every day is limited by busy schedules and demands, and although feelings can get hurt when the effort put into the food preparation may not be acknowledged, family time shouldn't be taken up by "food fights".
In order to stay focused on the process of feeding, we should expand from thinking about the content of the food being served (or what is "rejected") to the process of what is going on with the family at dinner. For example, a child could be having a bad day overall, and the refusal of food is just an indication of something upsetting that happened at school. If a partner makes a comment about the quality of the food, clients and patients can use the opportunity to have a conversation about how the feedback makes them feel. Ideally, conversation should shift over family dinners from food or what is being served to the day's events.
Other meal-time process considerations include:

Selena Gomez Admits a Surprising Fact About Her Taste in Men
The former Disney star is definitely all grown up.
After much speculation and tumult about her relationship with Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez is giving dating a go. Dating is hard enough for us normal people, as a celebrity it's nearly impossible—especially if you're not a fan of intense scrutiny and a never-ending rumor mill. But these are not Gomez's issues when it comes to finding romance. No, Gomez has been cursed with an age-resistant baby face (poor thing) that apparently limits the age range of the 23-year-old's dating pool (we're skeptical).
The singer told InStyle UK, whose January 2016 issue she covers, "I feel like I look 16 sometimes, which is a bummer because I would love to date older guys."
What we wouldn't give to have a glowing, youthful complexion again. Of course, she also has to cope with the worry that someone may have Googled her beforehand…
"I hate it," Gomez admits. "It's hard and I'm weirded out by the idea that a guy has Googled me before we meet, and that has happened."
…But hey that's all of us, right?

Home Health Value-Based Purchasing Program Payment Adjustment Process and Enforcement of Service Codes on Home Health Claims
In the various roles he has undertaken through the years, Val J. Halamandaris has been a singular driving force behind the policy and program initiatives resulting in the recognition of home health care as a viable alternative to institutionalization. His dedication to consumer advocacy, which enhances the quality of life and dignity of those receiving home health care, merits VNA HealthCare Group's highest recognition and deepest respect.
- VNA HealthCare Group
I have the highest respect for them, especially for the nurses, aides and therapists, who devote their lives to caring for people with disabilities, the infirm and dying Americans. There are few more noble professions.
- President Barack Obama
Home health care agencies do such a wonderful job in this country helping people to be able to remain at home and allowing them to receive services
- U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) Chair, Democratic Steering and Outreach Committee
Home care is a combination of compassion and efficiency. It is less expensive than institutional care...but at the same time it is a more caring, human, intimate experience, and therefore it has a greater human element...it's a big mistake not to try to maximize it and find ways to give people the home care option over either nursing homes, hospitals or other institutions
- Former Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Newt Gingrich (R-GA)
Medicaid covers long-term care, but only for low-income families. And Medicare only pays for care that is connected to a hospital discharge....our health care system must cover these vital services...[and] we should promote home-based care, which most people prefer, instead of the institutional care that we emphasize now.
- Former U.S. Senator Majority Leader Tom Daschle (D-CD)
We need incentives to...keep people in home health care settings...It's dramatically less expensive than long term care.
- U.S. Senator John McCain (R-AZ)
Home care is clearly the wave of the future. It's clearly where patients want to be cared for. I come from an ethnic family and when a member of our family is severely ill, we would never consider taking them to get institutional care. That's true of many families for both cultural and financial reasons. If patients have a choice of where they want to be cared for, where it's done the right way, they choose home.
- Donna Shalala, former Secretary of Health and Human Services
A couple of years ago, I spent a little bit of time with the National Association for Home Care & Hospice and its president, Val J. Halamandaris, and I was just blown away. What impressed me so much was that they talked about what they do as opposed to just the strategies of how to deal with Washington or Sacramento or Albany or whatever the case may be. Val is a fanatic about care, and it comes through in every way known to mankind. It comes through in the speakers he invites to their events; it comes through in all the stuff he shares.
- Tom Peters, author of In Search of Excellence
Val's home care organization brings thousands of caregivers together into a dynamic organization that provides them with valuable resources and tools to be even better in their important work. He helps them build self-esteem, which leads to self-motivation.
- Mike Vance, former Dean of Disney and author of Think Out of the Box
Val is one of the greatest advocates for seniors in America. He goes beyond the call of duty every time.
- Arthur S. Flemming, former Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare
Val has brought the problems, the challenges, and the opportunities out in the open for everyone to look at. He is a visionary pointing the direction for us.
- Margaret (Peg) Cushman, Professor of Nursing and former President of the Visiting Nurses Association
Although Val has chosen to stay in the background, he deserves much of the credit for what was accomplished both at the U.S. Senate Special Committee on Aging, where he was closely associated with me and at the House Select Committee on Aging, where he was Congressman Claude Pepper's senior counsel and closest advisor. He put together more hearings on the subject of aging, wrote more reports, drafted more bills, and had more influence on the direction of events than anyone before him or since.
- Frank E. Moss, former U.S. Senator
Val's most important contribution is pulling together all elements of home health care and being able to organize and energize the people involved in the industry.
Anyone working on health care issues in Congress knows the name Val J. Halamandaris.
- Kathleen Gardner Cravedi, former Staff Director of the House Select Committee on Aging
Without your untiring support and active participation, the voices of people advocating meaningful and compassionate health care reform may not have been heard by national leaders.
- Michael Sullivan, Former Executive Director, Indiana Association for Home Care
All of us have been members of many organizations and NAHC is simply the best there is. NAHC aspires to excellence in every respect; its staff has been repeatedly honored as the best in Washington; the organization lives by the highest values and has demonstrated a passionate interest in the well-being of patients and providers.
- Elaine Stephens, Director of Home Care of Steward Home Care/Steward Health Systems and former NAHC C
Home care increasingly is one of the basic building blocks in the developing system of long-term care. On both economic and recuperative bases, home health care will continue to grow as an essential service for individuals, for families and for the community as a whole.
- Former U.S. Senator Olympia Snowe (R-ME)
NCOA is excited to be part of this great event and honored to have such influential award winners in the field of aging.
- National Council of Aging
Health care at home…is something we need more of, not less of. Let us make a commitment to preventive and long-term care. Let us encourage home care as an alternative to nursing homes and give folks a little help to have their parents there.
- Former President Bill Clinton
NAHC's Annual Meeting and Exposition got underway earlier this week. The General Session speakers included people that educated, inspired and informed attendees. Below are summaries for the presentations of the General Session speakers.
Senator Rob Portman (R-OH)
Rob Portman, United States Senator from the state of Ohio, addressed Tuesday morning's General Session. Senator Portman, a longtime hospice advocate and possible Republican presidential candidate in 2016, told attendees that it was his mother who first educated him about the importance of home care and hospice, as she was an early pioneer and supporter of hospice in her community. Before being elected to Congress, Senator Portman served on the board of a home care and hospice organization. In this capacity, he suggested that all board members go on patient visits to see and experience the benefits of hospice for themselves. His own first-hand visits gave him a deep appreciation for the acute medical needs of patients, the dedication of nurses, and the undeniable need for isolated elderly patients to have the lifeline hospice provides.
"There is nothing more patient-centric than hospice," said Portman. "The Federal Government shouldn't make it harder." Portman recognized hospice as not only a more compassionate, but also less expensive alternative to institutional care.
Portman said he will continue to support the needs of small businesses by supporting a 40-hour work week (as opposed to Obama's suggested 30-hour work week), eliminating the burdensome tax on medical device companies and promoting policies to invest and grow our economy.
Doug Rauch
Retired Trader Joe's executive and current CEO and co-chairman of Conscious Capitalism, Doug Rauch, delivered an uplifting talk focused on "capitalism with a conscience" and the correlation between company culture and success. He shared his philosophy that a company must have a clear purpose that is higher and deeper than simply turning a profit.
Rauch shared a Gallup poll that found that meaningful work is the number one source of happiness. The companies who establish a unique culture built on empowerment and trust are the ones that flourish, he explained. While management theorists may disagree on whether the customer or employee should come first, Rauch likened the two to the wings of a bird. "Both need to be engaged." He advised business owners to continuously monitor their environment, and to look outside their industry for future competitors. He used the example of typewriter companies of the 70s failing to notice their competition coming from people in garages building the first computers – and not other typewriter companies.
Rauch closed with the inspiring messages that failure can be a good thing if it leads to innovation, and companies must strive to lift up their stakeholders and transcend the transactional.

Cz 712 semi auto shotgun
Is this gun worth getting. Any information is helpfull
You have to decide for your self what the purpose for this shotgun is? This shotgun will be fine if you are the occasional hunter. But if sport shooting like Trap or skeet where you will be pounding 200 rds a weekend on the field or the heavy duck and goose hunter pounding out magnum steel shot. You may elect a different shotgun just from the maintenance stand point. Getting parts may not be as simply as say for Remington or Mosserg, and 20 years from now you be in the same boat as some of my customers are in who try and revamp their older Savage/Stevens or J.C. Higgins where the parts are not readily available. And making a part for them isnt in their budget.

Tesla seems to be the new target for carmakers around the world regarding electric performance, and the latest to try an experiment with performance oriented car is John Hennessey, the man behind the Venom GT.
In an interview with Top Gear Magazine at the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA), John Hennessey said that an all-electric version of the Hennessey Venom GT is not impossible.
Hennessey said, "We're considering doing something with electricity. We've looked at it, and I've got friends in that field, I'm just waiting for the batteries to become lighter and have more capacity. But I don't think that's far away."
Hennessey says that Ferrari, Porsche, and McLaren have done a good job with hybrids, but he is personally not interested in making a Hybrid Venom. He says he would build a Venom either with an engine or straight electric.
The Texas-based tuner had brought a tuned Venom GT to SEMA, that is capable of delivering 1,451bhp, and reaching a theoretical top speed of 280mph (450km/h).

French driver Romain Grosjean is the leading candidate to join the new US-owned Haas Formula One team.
Haas have scheduled a news conference for a driver announcement next Tuesday (Wednesday AEST) at their Kannapolis, North Carolina, headquarters.
Grosjean currently drives for Lotus that have severe financial problems and are in ongoing takeover talks. The financial problems meant the team's freight arrived late for this weekend's Japanese Grand Prix and their hospitality unit was not in operation on Friday at the Suzuka circuit.
The 29-year-old Grosjean, who made his F1 debut in 2009, says his future is decided.
"I've made up my mind about next season but can't comment further than that," Grosjean said after Friday's practice session in Japan.
Haas founder and chairman Gene Haas is co-owner of the successful Stewart-Haas NASCAR team.
The other driver for Haas is expected to be someone contracted to the Ferrari team, as part of the deal for the Italian company to provide Haas with engines.
Esteban Gutierrez and Jean-Eric Vergne, both ex-F1 drivers who now serve as reserve and development drivers for Ferrari, are considered to be leading candidates.
Alexander Rossi, the only American competing in F1 after making his race debut with the Manor team last week, has held discussions with Haas but acknowledged his status as an American driver may be overlooked in favour of experience and the Ferrari link.

My Virtual Food Drive
Now through Sept. 30, the amount this virtual drive raises will be matched
I recently got a promotional email from a local Cleveland t-shirt company and I clicked on something that mentioned the Cleveland Food Bank...
Right now, through a generous challenge grant from the Lennon Charitable Trust anyone that gives through a VFD (virtual food drive) will have their gift matched (up to $20,000), until September 30th. So I set up a VFD today and have your drive's gifts automatically doubled to create twice the impact!
So I set up a VFD because maybe everyone's still feeling generous after all that ALS Ice Bucket stuff... and #tbh why not? It's free money.
So if you need a challenge... Match me & donate $30.

13C isotope depletion in ikaite crystals: evidence for methane release from the Siberian shelves ?
Ikaite crystals (CaCO3×6H2O) have been found at 232- to 238-cm sediment depth in R/V Polarstern core PS2460-4 from the Laptev Sea continental margin in a water depth of 204 m. δ13C values of this phase average −36.3±0.4‰ PDB (N=2), which is significantly outside the range of normal marine carbonates. The CO2 involved in the precipitation of the ikaite is most probably derived from methane, which has extremely depleted 13C isotope values. Two possible sources of methane in these sediments are: (1) methanogenesis (decomposition of organic matter under anaerobic conditions); and (2) gas hydrates, which are known to occur in the Siberian shelf regions.

How Do I Structure A Handbag/purse Cake?
Decorating By megannell Updated 30 Jul 2009 , 9:17am by megannell
Hi All
I am new to this forum and have been making cakes as a hobby for friends and family for around 4 years. The majority of these have been wedding cakes and I am much, much less experienced with novelty/shaped cakes.
I am in the process of making a rather ambitious (for me) 30th birthday cake for a friend in the shape of a Hermes Birkin Bag with gumpaste Manolos on the side. The Manolos are finished and have turned out well but I am a bit nervous about structuring and carving the bag. I am planning to use six layers of vanilla cake layered with buttercream and I am thinking it might be wise to dowel either the whole lot or dowel the first three layers then add a board then put the next three layers on top because I am petrified of the thought of it all just collapsing!
I would be really grateful for any advice anyone might have about how best to approach constructing the cake.
Thank you!!!!
Welcome to Cake Central. I've found this website extremely informative on cake and decorating problems.
I took the French purse class from Nicholas Lodge over a year ago but we made small purses out of a 9" square cake (we used a dummy in class but the real cake is made with the 9" cake). There was no need to dowel.
It sounds like you're making a life-size cake. I've seen where they make 3 layers doweled then top with a board and dowel the top 3 layers. If it's going to be a rather large cake, I'd also add at least 2 dowels through the whole cake to make it more secure.
I hope you will post a picture of the finished cake as it sounds like its going to be fabulous!
Lilly - I'm jealous that you took that class with Nicholas! =o) In a good way!
But thanks for the info on how to do the purse cake. One of these days I want to get around to making it!
Thanks so much LillyLou! I am going for life size so will dowel and board it. I will definitely post some pics (assuming it looks something like the cake I have in my head!)
I loved taking the class with Nicholas. They make everything a breeze. If you get behind, they help you to catch up. If you need something, all you have to do is raise your hand and it's right to ya. They have thought out everything and try to anticipate your every need. I'm a former elementary school teacher and trainer of adults with the Florida Dept. of Revenue and I've never been to a class that was this well thought out. I couldn't think of a thing to change. I was really mentally tired when I got out of there but I learned sooooooo much!
Thanks for your help - it was successful in the end and held together perfectly. I have just added a photo.
It looks great! I have been wanting to do a purse cake myself but haven't had the chance yet,hopefulluy soon! Anyway I looked at all your photos and was wondering how did you make the sugar butterflies on your wedding cake?If you hadn't said they were sugar I would have assumed they were fondant.Very nice!
Thanks kokopuff!! I called them sugar but should really have said Royal Icing to be precise.
They are run outs - not sure if that is a UK cake dec term. If not then apologies for spelling out the obvious but basically I printed off pictures of butterflies from Google and taped them to a cake board. I covered the whole thing in cellophane and piped round the outlines of the butterflies in royal icing using a No 1.5 piping tube. I then let down some more royal icing in ivory and pink with egg white and filled in the wings using the two colours to create patterns. Once the wings were dry I assembled the butterflies by piping a body with a No. 3 tube again onto cellophane and then stuck the wings in, propping them up with tiny balls of foil while they dried. Once they are dry you can slide a pallette knife under the body quite easily and attached the butterflies to the cake with more royal icing.
Hope that all makes sense!
Thanks! I have a wedding cake coming up next month and I will give them a try.
Your purse is GREAT and so are the shoes! Can you please tell me how you did the shoes? They look like real (life sized) shoes - not the tiny mold kind.
And thanks for telling us how you did the butterflies. I also looked at your cakes and they are wonderful, beautiful fondant work.
Thanks so much Peridot!
The shoes are roughly life sized. I loosely followed the instructions on the SOCAKE blog (http://sandra-socake.blogspot.com/2007/05/instructions-for-my-gumpaste-shoe.html) but drew the templates to suit the style of shoe I wanted. A bit of it was playing by ear to be honest but I was really pleased with how they turned out in the end. I think that the key was allowing each stage to dry properly before moving onto the next. I made them over the course of a few evenings.
Hi. First I'd like to say that your purse is fabulous. So are the shoes. They look so real. Can I pick your brain as to how you made the bag. How long did it take to make?
Did you stick to your 3-layer dowel, cakeboard, 3 layer dowel in the end?
You carved the cake to make the shape? Did you have any type of texturing on the bag? I'm so nervous i have the same bag to make , only red in color and i haveno clue how to start!
Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks rosamatsas!
I did stick to plan of dowelling the bottom three tiers then covering with a cake board and topping with the top three tiers. I used three 12" square, 2" deep cakes in total; the bottom two layers were 12" x 7", then two 12" x 6" in the middle and the top two were 12" x 5". I used foam board in the middle and cut it to 12" x 6" to fit between the middle tiers. I stacked the three bottom tiers on a 12" x 7" foam board, layering them with buttercream, then dowelled them and then I stacked and layered the top three tiers separately. I refrigerated the cake overnight before carving (sadly my freezer isn't big enough otherwise I would have frozen them).
I assembled the whole cake before carving and just went really slowly so as not to take off too much. I then crumb coated the whole thing in buttercream before covering in fondant.
I found a plastic texture mat online that leaves a chamois leather impression and used that to texture the fondant.
I thought the handles might be really tricky but I made them out of gumpaste a few days beforehand and they set rock hard. I attached them with a decent amount of royal icing and they stayed really solidly in place which was a relief.
In the end it wasn't as tricky as I feared it might be! I kept a picture of a real Birking Bag near me at all times and just added the details bit by bit.
Best of luck with yours - I am sure it will look great!! Do ask if you have any other questions.

Looking back with sober reflection, I can honestly say just three words about this year's Bowl Championship Series:
"That was it?"
Normally, even in light of biased polls and the opinions of writers from Duluth, the bowl series produces at least one game that was interesting. Not always the kind where your hat blows off the top of your head, spilling your drink as you stand up…
But the kind where you watch the whole game, even if you have no rooting interest. Even if you couldn't name where the school is located, let alone more then two players on the team.
Even if it's being called by Brent Musberger.
But this year, for no rhyme or reason, the BCS was a bore. A letdown. A series of unfortunately unexciting games.
Now I've said many times – including on this blog not too long ago – that I don't think college football needs a playoff. And I still believe that, even in spite of all logic, for reasons that I'm sure nobody agrees with.
But after this year, I'm starting to reconsider my stance.
Last year we had an instant classic in the Boise State/Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl, a thrilling shootout that left no viewer sitting down. Before that, there was the FSU/Penn State Orange Bowl, a triple OT thriller. There was the 2005 Rose Bowl, won on a final-second kick by Texas.
(I don't mention the Texas/USC Game simply because I feel it to be the greatest game I've ever seen. It was a rare alignment of the college football stars, so to speak, and cannot be replicated year after year.)
But there's always a few stinkers too: teams that played in a weak division, perhaps, or were just plain overrated.
And two years into the BCS Bowl, that's what both games have been: stinkers, of the highest order (or is odor?).
Twice Ohio State has made the bowl, riding the polls and a schedule against such tough teams as Kent State, Northwestern and Akron, who didn't even score a single offense point against them in a 20-2 drubbing.
And both times in the BCS Bowl, Ohio was slammed, embarrassed by teams from the SEC.
So perhaps the system that organizes the bowls are flawed – if the polls took quality of opponent into their rankings, for instance (SEC teams would rank higher, as they play in a tough division; Hawaii wouldn't since they play in a weaker division).
Maybe if the BCS left out the AP Poll, which rewards writers who vote for big-name schools or for a hometown favorite.
Maybe the proposed playoff system, where the current bowls would be used like an elite eight, would work to weed out the weaker teams.
But now, after a whole series of stinker bowl games – yes, even the Orange Bowl – it's time to start looking for alternatives to the current system.
Anything to keep that lousy Buckeye team from choking in the BCS Bowl again.

Beyonce's new leisurewear line is 'not about perfection'
Beyonce wants women to take more care of their bodies and what they put in them.
Beyonce created her new Ivy Park athletic collection to challenge the concept of perfection.
The singer gave fans a sneak peak of her new range of sports and leisurewear last week (ends01Apr16), and in a new interview with Elle magazine, the 34-year-old explained the idea behind the collection.
"It's really about changing the conversation," she said. "It's not about perfection. It's about purpose. It's really the essence: to celebrate every woman and the body she's in while always striving to be better."
The Single Ladies singer first announced her 50/50 collaboration with Topshop boss Sir Philip Green in October 2014, and debuted a new video promo on Thursday (31Mar16).
During her chat with Elle, Beyonce explained her aims for the collection and how she handles being the boss of a fashion company.
"It's exciting, but having the power to make every final decision and being accountable for them is definitely a burden and a blessing," she admitted. "To me, power is making things happen without asking for permission. It's affecting the way people perceive themselves and the world around them. It's making people stand up with pride."
She picked the name Ivy Park to honour her four-year-old daughter Blue Ivy, and Beyonce is hoping her latest collection will help to encourage women to adopt a more positive body image, so children like her little girl have something to aspire to.
"We have to care about our bodies and what we put in them," she said. "Women have to take the time to focus on our mental health - take time for self, for the spiritual, without feeling guilty or selfish. The world will see you the way you see you, and treat you the way you treat yourself.
"I called it Ivy Park because a park is our commonality. We can all go there; we're all welcomed. It's anywhere we create for ourselves. For me, it's the place that my drive comes from."

The VanSickle Family Law Clinic is new to the clinical program at SMU Dedman School of Law officially launched in January 2016. Many thanks to the Clinic's anonymous donor and its founding supporters for making this possible. The Clinic will provide much-needed assistance to unrepresented family law litigants in our community. The seminar component will integrate substantive law, theory, core lawyering skills and legal ethics to provide law students real world law practice experience. Under the supervision of an experienced clinical faculty member, student attorneys will represent and provide counsel to low-income clients in matters of family law such as divorce, child custody, visitation, paternity, modifications, enforcement actions, child support, and adoption. Student attorneys are expected to take the lead in all aspects of their casework and be professionally responsible for the services they provide on behalf of their clients.
Through client representation and the clinic seminar, student attorneys will have the opportunity to engage in the performance of fundamental lawyering skills necessary for competent representation and zealous advocacy. These skills will include but are not limited to, interviewing and counseling clients, negotiating, fact development and analysis, strategic case planning, conflict resolution and decision making, motion and trial practice, drafting legal pleadings and ancillary documents, organization and management of legal work, cultural competency, collaboration and self-evaluation.
Student attorneys will also collaborate with community-based organizations to provide limited consulting to pro se litigants at organized community legal clinics located in a low-income, culturally diverse area of Dallas.
The VanSickle Family Law Clinic has reached its caseload capacity for the spring semester. Thus, we are no longer accepting applications. Please check back with us next semester (after August 21, 2017).
For questions, please call (214)768-2562 or email us firstname.lastname@example.com.
