A power of attorney authorizes your agent to, essentially, step into your shoes (no matter whether you prefer sneakers or pumps) in order to handle your affairs and conduct business on your behalf. This business includes the business of your everyday life: paying your bills, conducting banking, applying for benefits, filing insurance claims, etc. But much of this cannot be done without a comprehensive power of attorney. We discussed basics at the beginning of the month. Continuing our conversation from earlier this week, let's look at the rest of the top benefits of having a comprehensive power of attorney as part of your well-planned estate. We'll countdown from five: 5. Prevents delays in asset longevity planning A comprehensive power of attorney usually needs to include all of the powers required to do effective asset longevity and protection planning. If the power of attorney does not include a specific power, it can greatly dampenRead more
Four Key Benefits of Using a Comprehensive Power of Attorney (Top Benefits, Part I)
Having talked about some of the basics of powers of attorney in the last post, let's count down some of the top benefits of having a comprehensive power of attorney as part of your well-planned estate. 1. Avoid the necessity of a guardianship or conservatorship Someone who does not have a comprehensive power of attorney at the time they become incapacitated would likely have no alternative other than to have someone else petition the court to appoint a guardian. The court will choose who is appointed to manage the financial and/or health affairs of the incapacitated person, and the court will continue to monitor the situation as long as the incapacitated person is alive. While not only a costly process, another detriment is the fact that the incapacitated person might not have input on who will be appointed to serve. 2. Provide family members a good opportunity to discuss wishesRead more
Powers of Attorney: Some Basic Principles for Principals
Powers of attorney do not refer to how much your attorney can bench press or lift. Instead, a power of attorney is a document that identifies and gives power to a person to make decisions for you in the case of incapacity. The benefits of a highly detailed, comprehensive power of attorney are numerous. Unfortunately, many powers of attorney are more general in nature and can actually cause more problems than they solve. But before we get into those benefits (which will come in later posts), let's cover some basics. Power of Attorney Terminology The person who signs a power of attorney, that is, the person granting the power, is the principal. The person to whom the power is given is the agent. The agent under a power of attorney has traditionally been called an "attorney-in-fact" or sometimes just "attorney." However, confusion over these terms has encouraged the terminology toRead more
The Blended Family: Providing for Spouses, Children and Stepchildren
When dividing property, fairness is essential, but it's also subjective. Thinking about wills and who you want to inherit your assets is difficult for anyone, but the process is more complex for blended families. Some of the same rules apply. Most importantly, you want to make sure that you can provide for your loved ones. You should be comfortable with your decisions. In addition to selecting beneficiaries, you need to make sure that you have picked the right person (called the personal representative in Florida (elsewhere, an executor or executrix)) to carry out your wishes. If you can, you should work with your partner to reach an agreement when providing for each member of your blended family. Providing For Your Children As a parent, you want to support your children at every stage of their lives from buying their first car to completing college and having children of their own. It'sRead more
Don't Let These Four Key Account Types Fall Through the Cracks: Name Your Beneficiaries
Your estate planning—that part naming whom you want to have things after you die—involves more than your will. You should also select whom you want to receive various accounts you have. These accounts can be given directly to those persons you name—the beneficiaries—without any need for probate or court oversight. Thus, any time you consider your estate plan (or during any major life change), you should also review those beneficiary choices and make sure they continue to reflect your wishes. Four primary accounts that need beneficiaries are life insurance policies; retirement accounts; accounts set up as pay on death; and health savings accounts. Life Insurance Beneficiaries When you buy a life insurance policy, you'll name a beneficiary. Hopefully, your agent will also encourage you to name a contingent beneficiary, that is, someone who will be the beneficiary if the initial person or persons you named die before you.Read more
Are You Planning a Legacy or a Mess?
We probably don't actually plan a mess. But without planning, often that is what we leave. A recent book by a Jacksonville author highlights this potential pitfall. The Florida Times Union this week featured an article about a new book by Jacksonville's own Jody Giles: The Missing Pieces Plan. According to the article, the book divides issues of end-of-life planning into distinct areas: legal; insurance; legacy; and communications. Each of these areas are indeed key areas to address in a full estate plan. Part of working with a focused estate planning attorney will include addressing all of those issues. Although many people might think the attorney handles only the will, a thorough estate plan includes more. Your attorney can help with all of those. Your Estate Planning Attorney is a Part of Your Team Often your estate planning attorney works hard to make connections in the community to know those other professionals. We referRead more
Five Key Times to Evaluate Your Estate Plan
Life changes daily, it seems sometimes. Often, when those events take place that bring such change, we can be so focused on the change in circumstance, it's easy to overlook how our estate plan might need to change too. Here are five key times to evaluate your estate plan. 1. Evaluate your estate plan if you have no estate plan. For those who have never developed an estate plan, you should. Almost everyone needs to do some sort of planning, even if that planning involves meeting with an attorney only to develop your healthcare documents and understand what happens if you don't have a will. Florida law states what happens to your belongings if you die without a will, but it is often much more complicated for those you leave behind. A small amount of time with an attorney today can save your loved ones hassle down the road. 2.Read more
Prince Died Without a Will?
Last week, news spread quickly of the unexpected death of legendary musician, Prince. Posts covered Facebook news feeds. Twitter exploded with comments lamenting the loss. Tributes rang out musically on stages across Broadway, concert halls, and Saturday Night Live. No one expected this news. No one expected his death. But sometimes, as sudden as lightening can strike, death can occur. It would seem too that even Prince thought he could put off planning. CNN Money reported less than a week after his death that Prince's sister has filed papers requesting a Special Administrator, stating that Prince died without a will. Reuters reported the same. So what does this mean? It means the state of Minnesota, where Prince was a resident, will decide what happens.* What Happens When You Die Without a Will In a way, everyone already has a plan for what happens to your belongings after death. If you don't haveRead more
National Healthcare Decision Day: Talk about Your Living Will
Sometimes talking about end of life issues and living wills can be uncomfortable. Sometimes we are challenged with how to broach the topic. Too often, we think about these matters only after watching someone else go through losing a loved one or through a medical crisis, and even then, bringing up your end-of-life wishes can be too raw, too fresh, too close to recent grief. But a particular date gives you a reason to talk about it. April 16 is National Healthcare Decision Day. This day gives you that perfect reason to talk about your living will. What is a Living Will? Everyone needs a few specific documents as part of the healthcare side of your estate plan. One of these is a living will. Your living will specifies in advance (thus, it is also called an advanced directive) what healthcare strategies you want used if you're unable to communicateRead more
Choosing Beneficiaries and Keeping it Beneficial
With the start of a new year, we often take time to reflect on the past, look forward to the future, and generally set goals to get our houses in order—whether our physical houses, our fitness houses, or our financial houses. One of those areas in your financial house to look at includes reviewing your beneficiaries. Life insurance policies and your retirement plans—401Ks, IRAs, and annuities—should list beneficiaries. But several questions arise here. Do you have the proper life insurance that you need? (If not, I would be happy to put you in touch with folks who can help!) Do you have a plan for retirement? (Again, if not, I know people and would be pleased to provide you with a few to choose from among.) And if you do have those things, who are your beneficiaries? Are they current? Has your life situation changed? Do you know the effectRead more

For the third year in a row, Post Falls' school attendance has increased only ever-so-slightly and no emergency levy funding will be sought by the district as a result.
"We anticipated more growth than what we've seen (during the first week of school)," Superintendent Jerry Keane said.
Post Falls' attendance has been at 5,677 this week, up only five students from a year ago, so the district canceled a school board meeting originally set for Thursday night in which emergency funding to help pay for the increased cost of educating more students would have been considered.
Idaho law allows boards in growing districts to seek emergency local property tax levies, without voter approval, to cover the cost of educating more students than what was budgeted for.
Keane said the past three years have been a far cry from several years ago when the district was growing at least 3 percent a year and building new schools. He said that, based on withdrawal slips, growth has mostly been stunted by typical economic trends of families moving due to jobs.
"We don't anticipate this trend to last much longer, especially after watching the growth for so many years," Keane said.
He said the next school project will likely be adding a second story to River City Middle School, but that appears to be two to three years out due to the flat numbers.
The student population at Prairie View Elementary is at 663 - 50 more than last year - but slight decreases at Post Falls Middle School, West Ridge Elementary and Frederick Post Kindergarten kept the overall number flat.
"Every other school has almost identical enrollment to last year," Keane said.
Portable classrooms were moved from West Ridge to Prairie View over the summer to help with the change, but Keane said the district will likely consider school zone boundary changes this winter as another solution to the spike.
"Prairie View is at capacity so we need to do what we can to distribute the students in a more level fashion," he said. "Unfortunately, growth doesn't always come in neat packages."
* Lakeland will also not pursue emergency funding because that district's numbers continue to decrease.
The enrollment is at 4,065 - 88 less than last year.
Since the 2010-11 school year, the district has decreased by 354 students or 8 percent. District officials say the new charter school in Rathdrum and families moving out of the area are reasons for the declines.

Biology is one of the original natural sciences, even reaching back as far as the study of anatomy in ancient Egypt, where evidence has been found of surgery, forensics, and anatomical knowledge of both organ structure and function. Biology in general is the study of life and living organisms, with specific attention to function, growth, evolution, identification and taxonomy. Modern biology is becoming an interdisciplinary field, overlapping with biomedical engineering, molecular chemistry, and genetics. The biological sciences recognize the cell as the basic unit of life, and DNA as the basic unit of heredity. Moreover, all organisms survive by consuming and transforming energy via respiration or photosynthesis, and by regulating their internal environment via homeostasis.
The life sciences are defined by the scale at which organisms are studied, in that biochemistry focuses on chemical processes of life while molecular biology involves molecules and protein synthesis. Cellular biology may be broken down further into a structural analysis of cell organelles and lipid membrane boundries, such as in skin tissue or alveolar sacs in the lungs. In the field of genetic engineering, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) may be spliced together from different organisms, in an attempt to transfer hereditary traits that may increase crop yields, create a supply of stem-cells, or even clone sheep. Beyond major requirements within the wildlife conservation department, you may consider Mid-State Technical College nurse education as a complementary elective to your primary course of study.

I got both of these to use as decorative cushions. They're really big and cuddly, and they actually make pretty good pillowfight weapons!

For a food lover like myself, this plushie is a nice addition to my collection.
It's very plump and round and decently big- huggable. The green stem on top is made of especially soft and silky material.

I fell in love with these plushies at first sight. I purchased the pink one and I couldn't be happier. Its a bit more neon and brighter in person, but I'm still very satisfied. Its huge and perfect to cuddle with.
1 out of 1 people found this review to be helpful.
I bought both colors. For my friends who come over to my apartment for the first time I always tell them to respect my strawberries. They give me a weird look, but as soon as they enter my living room, they immediately run to the couch and grab my strawberries and hug them. Sigh, it's hard being popular isn't it, Mr. and Mrs. Strawberry (LOL)? It's just such a good size, not too large, but not small.
Great for daily use! Love it so much!
This giant strawberry is just too sweet! I chose the pick plush and I absolutely love it. I knew it was giant, but it's so much bigger than I expected! It's incredibly soft and super squishy and makes a great pillow. Love it!
I had purchased the red one when these were only $14.99 with free shipping, and I don't regret it! I love anything strawberry, and this is a perfect addition to my collection. It's nice and big, so it's awesome for wrapping yourself around when you're sad or just want comfort and cuddles! It also pairs well with one of my Sweet Lolita coords as an oversized accessory. When I can, I'm ordering the pink one too~!
A most beautiful, big, soft and fluffy pillow of strawberry, is my new adornment to bedroom.
The fabric and cotton is soft. The color is pretty, shipping was fast. Just the right size to hold it in my arms. So healing even after 2 days of not sleeping and tragedy of car running out of battery on the road. Not less to mention that it came right after I came home from the car tragedy. Made my day. ありがとうございました!*\(^o^)/*
This is so soft and cute, even my mom liked it and she's usually incredulous about my plushie buying haha.
If you like strawberries or plushies this is a great buy. This strawberry is soft and fluffy, sometimes I use it as a pillow. Its a very comforting plushie.
p.s. I bought the pink one
So cute and a perfect pillow!!
These are exactly as pictured and very good quality. They're actually very big!! I'm going to have fun deciding where to put these in my room.

We were invited up to Liverpool by artist and illustrator William Johnston (aka Framedink) who gave us a guided tour of the city. At the Wolstenholme Creative Space, home to a community of artists and designers, we met new resident Russell Reid.
Reid studied at Liverpool John Moores and decided to stay on in the city working under the studio name Russtle. He has been creating flyers for Circus for several years now using a collage technique which he also employed on our cover.
As well as working as a graphic designer, Reid runs his own T-shirt and print label Wasted Heroes featuring designs from Reid himself and a variety of local illustrators and artists.

NAMM 2014: Korg has announced a new flagship rack-mounted tuner in the form of the Pitchblack Pro, which it claims combines a 3D-style tuning display (i.e. it's clearly visible from all angles) with a lightweight design and an integrated cable checker.
Check out the full press release below to find out how it works. The Korg Pitchblack Pro is due to retail for around $100 (street price).
WINTER NAMM SHOW, ANAHEIM, CA, January 23rd, 2014 - Since creating the world's first professional rack-mounted tuner, the DT-1 Pro in 1987, Korg has continued to produce trustworthy, accurate tuners used by professionals worldwide. In response to popular consumer and artist demand, Korg offers its latest rack-mounted tuner, the Pitchblack Pro.
The Pitchblack Pro is easy to see, even from a distance. The newly-developed "3D" style tuning meter offers exceptional visibility with illuminated color LEDs that provide unparalleled brightness and visibility. The special design with treated acrylic allows a multi-dimensional view of the display-from the surface of the screen all the way into its depths-so that from any distance or angle, discrepancies or changes in pitch will be equally visible.
The large meter provides three display modes:
Regular Meter mode
Similar to using a needle-type tuner, the illuminated LED will move to the right if the string is sharp, toward the left if the string is flat, or in the center if the string is in tune.
Strobe Meter mode
The LED meter illumination stops flowing when the string is in in tune. The illumination will flow from left to right if the string is sharp or from right to left if the string is flat.
Half Strobe Meter mode
The LED meter illumination stops flowing and only the center LED is lit up when the string is in tune. The right side of the LED meter strobes if the string is sharp; the left side strobes if the string is flat.
A convenient Cable Checker function is built into the Pitchblack Pro; simply connect the ends of a mono 1/4" cable to INPUT 1 and the CABLE CHECK jack, and the display will indicate whether the cable is broken and/or shorted.
Occupying only 1U of rack space, the Pitchblack Pro's body is ultra-lightweight and slim. It weighs in at a mere 12.80 Oz. and is only 1.93" deep, for convenient, lightweight travel. The left and right rack ears can be attached or detached with ease, and they can also be mounted to the bottom of the tuner to serve as a tilt-back stand for tabletop use.

Seasonal dog off-leash program ends in Ann Morrison Park and Optimist Youth Sports Complex
A successful dog off-leash program created to minimize the impact of wintering geese in Ann Morrison Park and Optimist Youth Sports Complex ends Tuesday, February 28, concurring with the start of practice season for local soccer teams.
The 5th annual seasonal off-leash program, which started Nov. 1, is in place to help prevent long-term damage and address public health and safety concerns caused by hundreds of geese.
Coinciding with the end of the off-leash period, Boise Parks and Recreation is sponsoring a clean-up effort to pick up dog waste in local parks and on Ridge to Rivers trails. The clean-up will be held on March 11, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Volunteers interested in participating may contact Jerry Pugh, (208-608-7617, firstname.lastname@example.com). Groups can also sign up online at http://bit.ly/2k8lnxc. Locations will be assigned to volunteers on a first come, first serve basis.
Boise Parks & Recreation operates five designated dog parks and an additional seven multi-use parks with year-round off-leash hours. To learn more about dog-friendly areas in the city, see the off-leash areas website.
In addition, all areas of Esther Simplot Park are available for off-leash use from November 1 to March 31, sunrise to sunset, with the exception of the Greenbelt, parking lots and roadways, and playground.

Sudbury –NDP MPPs France Gélinas (Nickel Belt) and Michael Mantha (Algoma-Manitoulin) announced they will ensure Sudbury's voices will continue to be heard at Queen's Park, and that the constituency office will remain open to serve the people of Sudbury.
"New Democrats will continue to work for the people of Sudbury. The staff here at this office will continue to provide excellent service helping residents with their concerns. The office will continue to be open for drop-ins Monday to Thursday and for appointments on Fridays," Gélinas said.

Mantha announced that he will be stepping in as the NDP's transportation critic.
"As a northerner, I know that highways are the lifelines of our communities. As transportation critic, I will continue to pressure this Liberal government to improve winter road maintenance, complete the twinning of Highway 69 on time and to begin construction of Maley Drive."
"The NDP's strong team of northern MPPs and the entire NDP caucus are united in ensuring that Sudbury's concerns will be brought to Queen's Park. We will continue to work hard on behalf of northerners, First Nations and our communities. France and I are here to listen to resident's concerns and hold this government to account," Mantha said.

Man Drives Into In-N-Out Burger to Order Food During Low-Speed Police Chase
An Arizona man who was being pursued over an outstanding warrant reportedly wanted a bite to eat first.
Phoenix PD says a man took a detour through an In-N-Out burger drive-thru during a low speed chase Wednesday night and appeared to order food.
Josh Adkins reportedly had an outstanding warrant and did not stop for officers as they pursued him at about 10:30 p.m.
Instead, Adkins allegedly pulled through the drive-thru, taking several minutes, then left through the parking lot.
Without being stopped by police, Adkins then reportedly drove to a nearby neighborhood, where he pulled over at a home.
Adkins was arrested as he walked to a home's backyard, and surrendered.
The Phoenix man was booked for his outstanding warrant and on a charge of unlawful flight from law enforcement.

Wild Salmon Burgers with Broccoli Slaw
I adore Norwegian salmon having lived in Scandinavia for three years. It's fatty and melts in your mouth. However, I prefer wild salmon for this burger recipe because it's not as oily and stays nice and firm when cooked properly. And it maintains that beautiful pink color when cooked. It grinds up nicely in the food processor — just make sure to remove the skin! I don't like to waste the salmon skin so I broil it up in my toaster oven for a crunchy snack! Not feeling the bun? This burger is also great on top of a green salad. So many options. Enjoy!
- 1 pound skinless wild salmon fillet, cubed
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium shallot, chopped or 3 tablespoons chopped red onion
- 1 tablespoon sambal oelek (red chili paste)
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger
- ½ lime, juiced
- 2 tablespoons light mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
- ¼ cup panko bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- ½ bag broccoli slaw mix
- 1 cup chopped fresh kale
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 cup shredded purple cabbage
- ¼ red onion thinly sliced
- 1 carrot, shredded
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
- 1 jalapeno pepper, chopped
- Optional: Whole wheat hamburger buns
- In a food processor pulse salmon pieces until ground up. In a large bowl, combine well the salmon, garlic, shallots, sambal oelek, fish sauce, ginger, lime juice, mayonnaise, cilantro and mint. Add in the panko bread crumbs and form burger patties.
- Heat oil on medium high in a large frying pan on stove. Fry salmon burgers on each side until well browned on each side, about 4 minutes.
- Combine all ingredients for broccoli slaw in a large bowl and top burgers with slaw when ready to serve with buns.
Tom Yum Soup with Chicken & Shrimp
Your palate will be singing with this traditional Thai seafood soup! Known for it's spicy and sour flavor, and fragrant spices and herbs, shrimp is usually the main ingredient. I've changed it up a bit with the addition of chicken. But any seafood or protein will do. This soup is a staple in most Thai restaurants and I've taste-tested quite a few. My version is a healthy alternative to Tom Yum soup made with full-fat coconut milk. Make sure to read the ingredients before ordering when dining out. Or, just make this easy, healthy version at home!
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 2 stalks lemon grass, white soft insides only, coarsely chopped
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 2 Thai chili peppers, seeds removed and sliced
- 3 cups reduced sodium chicken broth
- Zest from ½ lime
- ¼ cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 kaffir lime leaves (fresh or dried)
- 2 tablespoons sambal oelek (red chili paste)
- 1 small can diced tomatoes, drained
- 4-5 button mushrooms, sliced very thinly
- Handful of snow peas
- 1 small can water chestnuts, drained
- ½ pound boneless skinless chicken breast, sliced very thinly
- ½ pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 5-6 large basil leaves, chopped
- In a small pan, heat oil and add lemon grass, ginger, onion and chili peppers. Cook until just soft. Set aside.
- In a large saucepan, combine chicken broth, lime juice, lime zest, fish sauce, sugar, and kaffir lime leaves. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer for 15 minutes. Remove kaffir lime leaves. Add in sambal oelek, tomatoes, cooked vegetables, mushrooms, snow peas, and water chestnuts. Simmer for another 5 minutes.
- Add in chicken and shrimp cooking until just done, about 2 minutes, taking care not to overcook. Ladle into soup bowls. Top with fresh basil to garnish.
Wasabi Seared Tuna
Watch the recipe video on the Asian Caucasian YouTube Channel
When my sister-in-law, Laurel, first introduced me to this amazing dish she served it whole as an entree. So delish, but I'm not a big fan of thick tuna steaks, so I decided to slice it thinly and serve it as an appetizer. Let me tell you, it's always a big hit with my dinner guests! It's on the light side so it won't fill you up before your main meal. Make sure you watch carefully when you're searing the tuna because it can get overcooked very quickly. I prefer mine rare on the inside so it takes very little time to sear. The wasabi peas are not at all spicy, but give the tuna a pretty outside color and nice texture. This starter dish is made to impress!
- 1 cup wasabi peas
- 1 tablespoon black sesame seeds
- 2 medium sized, thick sushi grade ahi tuna or yellowfin tuna steaks
- 3 tablespoons canola oil
- Salt & pepper
- Wasabi paste
- Dipping Sauce:
- ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 chopped green onion for garnish
- Pulse wasabi peas in a food processor until it forms a course powder. Place in a shallow dish for dredging such as a pie pan. Pat dry the tuna steaks and brush one tablespoon of canola oil on both sides. Sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper. Dredge tuna on all sides in wasabi peas to coat. Heat a medium cast iron skillet on high heat. Sear tuna for 3 minutes on first side and 2 minutes on second side until nicely seared on the outside and rare on the inside. Make sure to sear the sides as well. Take out of skillet and let rest on cutting board for 5 minutes. Slice thinly against the grain and serve with dipping sauce and wasabi paste.
- For the dipping sauce: Whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, ginger, and pepper flakes in a small bowl. Top with green onions to garnish and serve alongside tuna slices.

text: I am happy to report that I made it through my internship year. This summer has been a time of great reflection for me. I started out my final year of graduate school in a much different place than where I am now. By nature, I'm an introspective person. I suppose that's why I'm now a psychotherapist 🙂 Due to my introspective nature, I searched this blog for all of my posts about my counseling internship. I mentioned my internship on twenty-one pages of Mel's Miles. Internship has been a huge part of my life. It was so scary when I first started; I remember feeling completely out of my element, which I alluded to in this post. Towards the middle, I hit my stride with clients and felt more confident. In the final few months of my internship, I was offered a job at a different agency. I worked there part-time while also finishing up at my internship site. I'm grateful for every second of my internship – the good, the bad, and the ugly. Believe me, working as a counselor is not all rainbows and butterflies. It's not all about helping people. There were times at my internship when I had to do really tough things, like call DCFS on a client. However, I also had deep connections and strong therapeutic relationships with the vast majority of my clients. They are the ones who have made every second of my experience working as a therapist intern worth it. I will never forget these first clients of mine. I'm grateful that leaving my clients was so hard! That just shows how beautiful of an experience I had working with them. My clients taught me so many lessons and I feel so lucky that I was able to be a part of their healing. I'm grateful that I got to do some work in Spanish! My undergrad degree is in Psychology and Spanish. I almost didn't study Spanish in college, but I am so grateful that I decided to do so. I love that I can do my work in TWO languages. Using my Spanish makes my work so much more exciting and helped me land my new position as well. Some of my clients spoke only Spanish and I got to run two different therapy groups in Spanish. I'm grateful for my classmates. Twelve classmates and I had group supervision together all year. We have all grown very close and it's been great to have their feedback and support. I'm grateful for my professor. She let me borrow different books and resources, listened to recordings of my sessions, and gave me feedback that I really needed in order to be an effective therapist. I'm grateful for my supervisor. I may be biased, but my internship supervisor was the best supervisor EVER. He was available to me whenever I needed him, gave me the encouragement I needed to raise my confidence, validated my feelings, and provided constructive criticism about my work when necessary. We had excellent chemistry, too. I think the two of us will be good friends following my internship. He truly made my internship experience enjoyable. I'm grateful that my internship site was AWESOME overall. My internship was at a community based health center, which has several locations around the city. The location I worked at was a half mile away from my apartment. I walked there almost all the time 🙂 My coworkers were SO helpful and my fellow interns were a joy to work with. This internship was UNPAID, but I didn't mind working there at all! If they could hire me, I'd work at my internship site in a heartbeat. Sadly, my internship only hires therapists who are fully licensed, which will take me about 2 years. Who knows – maybe I'll be back there someday?! I'm grateful that I had a cute office 🙂 I'm grateful that I chose this internship and that the internship hired me. It was the best fit for me! I had a GREAT experience. Now real life begins again. In many ways, I feel prepared to get out there and work as a counselor. However, I also am aware that I have so much further to go and a ton more to learn. I am up for the challenge, though! Thank you for sticking with me throughout this journey. I know my blogging has not been very consistent, but school was my priority this year. Now, I'll be working more, but will no longer have homework to do 🙂 I hope to continue updating this space regularly with my running and life adventures! Do you plan to make a career change someday? Do you get to work with clients/patients at your job? What is it like?

Home-cooked food are way better and of course so much more healthier than those we just canned and prepackaged since these goods are already filled with preservatives and so many other ingredients we are not even sure of. Maybe our dogs have not so much say on the food they get, but as owners should not we give them also healthy foods we want for ourselves too?
For the reason that we lack information on the ingredients that is contained in the food we buy for our dogs, we cannot be certain if we are giving them enough nutrition that they need. Little did many of us know that this practice will cause harm to our dogs health, which will only cause dog owners to splurge more money for these.
Ingredients such as grains, soy and corns usually are common reasons to dogs allergies that cause illness. These are also the ingredients used as fillers in most dog foods that can widely be bought in stores. A better and healthy option is cooking food for your dogs. With homemade recipes that are easy to cook, you are ensured the food you give to your dog is healthy. Since dog foods that are available in the market are usually stored a long time before its gets purchased, the food will surely not be fresh enough and may have even be contaminated.
Since you are the one preparing your dog?s food, you cvan be more sure of the food freshness and the nutrients of its ingredients. This can assure that you do not give your food contaminated and expired food instead, you give them the healthiest and freshest just right before your hands. Just like us humans, if the our beloved dogs get the nutrients they need to have they will be more energetic and happy.
Most likely, unhealthy have symptoms of dull coats, skin conditions and recurring illnesses and other symptoms that cannot be seen by your naked eye. If you are aware of the ingredients your dog gets, then you are sure to have a healthier dog. The most common disease in dogs is diabetes. And if you buy food from stores, you ca n not be sure of the ingredients it has.
You are not sure if your dog has an allergic reaction soy, grain or corns and most of the commercial dog food contains all three ingredients as fillers. Our dogs are much the same us humans. They also need proper and right food to provide them the nutrients for them to carry out all activities throughout the day. And if you cook your dogs food instead, you can make sure that all these nutrients can be present in the food you prepare for them.
Another advantage of feeding your dog with your homemade of food is can actually extend a dog?s life. This has been proven in many studies conducted.

Ayre will leave the role in 2017
Ian Ayre, the chief executive at Liveprool, will step down from the role in 2017, it was announced on Monday.
Ayre joined the club in 2007 when it was still owned by Tom Hicks and George Gillett, before becoming CEO when the pair left in 2010 and the Fenway Sports Group completed their takeover of the club.
In a statement on the club wesbite, owner John W. Henry, chairman Tom Werner and president Mike Gordon said that they had tried to convince Ayre to stay on several occasions, but were unsuccesful.
"We will at some point in the near future begin identifying and recruiting a worthy successor to continue to build on the outstanding foundations which have been laid by Ian," read the statement, adding that "under his leadership, we have seen Liverpool transform from a club that was on the brink of bankruptcy, to one which today enjoys strong financial and operational health".
They added that Ayre's decision was typical of the person he was, putting the club first and announcing it 15 months in advance, allowing them to find an adequate replacement.
Ayre stated that "if becoming chief executive of Liverpool Football Club was the greatest honour of my professional life, then deciding to step down at the end of my current contract is by far the most difficult."
He added that "having been brought up in the shadow of Anfield, I have found it the most profound privilege to serve the club I have supported all my life", and that he would assist with the transition over the final 15 months of his tenure.
Twitter reaction to the news has been, predictably, none too flattering to the CEO.

WASHINGTON, August 11, 2016 – New reporting suggests that the US Central Command, CENTCOM, intentionally twisted intelligence about US efforts against ISIS and al Qaeda, jeopardizing US personnel and interests.
The Daily Beast reports that a House task force found that senior officers in CENTCOM's intelligence directorate pressured analysts to soften information on the threat posed by ISIS and to suggest US efforts against terrorists were more successful than analysts believed.
In intelligence community parlance, that means politicizing information, one of the cardinal sins of any intelligence organization. Whether intentional or not, politicized intelligence is never acceptable, is often deadly, and places a long-lasting blemish on the organization that perpetrates it.
According to The Daily Beast, the House task force is scheduled to release findings regarding CENTCOM politicization by the end of next week.
The controversy erupted last fall, after analysts reported pressure from higher-ups to paint a more positive picture of the counter-terror fight than what they actually believed. A survey released by Stars and Stripes last December found that 40 percent of the 120 CENTCOM personnel in the analysis directorate stated that "somebody had attempted to distort or suppress their analysis within the past year despite persuasive evidence." Specifically, analysts complained that reports were altered to downplay the threat and to boost US successes against terrorists.
The DOD inspector general, the Armed Services Committee and two other House committees launched investigations of CENTCOM after the initial complaints from analysts.
The US Central Command is headquartered at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Florida, and has a forward headquarters in Qatar. It is responsible for the Middle East and North Africa; specifically, it is the Command responsible for Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, and for the fight against ISIS.

US abortion doctor convicted of murder
A US abortion doctor could face the death penalty after being found guilty of murdering three babies with scissors after they were born alive in his filthy Philadelphia clinic.
Kermit Gosnell, 72, was said to work out of a facility resembling a house of horrors, a place that smelled of animal urine and had fetal remains scattered about in jars and jugs.
He was convicted by a jury in a Philadelphia court, the district attorney's office said. Judge Jeffrey Minehart set Tuesday of next week as the day for starting the death-penalty hearing for Gosnell.
The other possible penalty for first degree murder in Pennsylvania is life in prison with no chance of parole, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported.
The jury returned guilty verdicts on the three babies, an acquittal in the alleged murder of a fourth, and a guilty verdict in the involuntary manslaughter of a woman on whom he was performing an abortion, DA's spokeswoman Tasha Jamerson said.
The jury, which had earlier Monday declared itself unable to decide on two counts before going back to try again, had been deliberating for 10 days.
Gosnell's crimes horrified Americans on either side of the intense national debate on abortion.
Prosecutors said he performed late-term abortions in a state where the limit is set at 24 weeks and that when babies emerged still alive, he used scissors to sever their spines.
However, he denied this, insisting that all babies were already dead as a result of the drug he was using in the abortion.
Gosnell appeared "as enigmatically placid as ever" as the 12-member jury filed back into court after reaching a decision and the verdict was read out, reports said.
Defense Attorney Jack McMahon, limited by a gag order from commenting on the case, said Gosnell was upset by the verdict.
"Obviously, the jury has spoken. The prosecution should be commended," McMahon said, according to the Inquirer.
During one operation in the clinic, a woman who had come in for an abortion died from a heart attack after an overdose of anaesthetic.
Gosnell's business, called the Women's Medical Society, was "decrepit and unsanitary," prosecutors said, staffed with unlicensed personnel who would "practice medicine on unsuspecting patients, unsupervised, and directed them to heavily drug patients in his absence."
The grand jury report indicting Gosnell described the outwardly professional looking brick building where he worked as a house of horrors.
"The clinic reeked of animal urine, courtesy of the cats that were allowed to roam (and defecate) freely. Furniture and blankets were stained with blood. Instruments were not properly sterilized. Disposable medical supplies were not disposed of; they were reused, over and over again," the report said.
"Scattered throughout, in cabinets, in the basement, in a freezer, in jars and bags and plastic jugs, were fetal remains. It was a baby charnel house."
The grand jury itself noted that the story would be "used" by both sides in the abortion debate.
Opponents have raised the case as evidence of abortion's fundamentally violent, criminal nature, while backers of abortion see the main lesson as the need to provide women -- especially the uneducated poor -- access to reliable, safe services.
John Boehner, the Republican speaker of the House of Representatives, called it "a sad and horrific case -- one that reminds us there is no one more defenseless, or more in need of our protection, than the unborn."

Rite of Spring: April is here, winter is over, and that tax refund is burning a hole in your pocket. Well, at least two of those things are true, right? Also true is that spring concert season is finally upon us. New releases and tours always coincide with the vernal thaw, and of course, Coachella will be dumping musical largesse on Bay Area concert halls as bands stop in for most of this month, before or after their desert assignation -- just like every year.

Small crowd: It's been more than two years since city officials began offering cheap permits for smaller establishments to host live music, but cafes, restaurants, and outdoor plazas have been slow to take advantage of them -- largely because they don't know the permits exist or simply don't like paying any extra money to the city. But as more San Francisco music venues close or face uncertain futures due to new ownership, Limited Live Music Permits could help pick up some of the slack... [continue reading]

Everybody is jumping on a report out of the Florida Center for Investigative Reporting, which suggests — in, I think, a fairly well-documented fashion — that the administration of Florida Gov. Rick Scott had an aversion to the terms "climate change" and "global warming." And it appears that the message about not using these words filtered down to state agency employees and officials at the Florida Department of Environmental Protection.
Scott himself has expressed skepticism about the science of climate change in the past, and more recently, retreated to the "I'm not a scientist" position of many GOP politicians.
But for agency employees who study and try to protect the environment, not talking about climate change is pretty hard to do. For these staffers — especially in Florida – climate change is in many ways the Ur story underlying almost everything that they encounter and work on. And you want them not to talk about it?
No wonder, then, that this story blew up in the media — with Scott administration officials denying the story's accuracy to the Post's Terence McCoy. Still, it seems clear from the original report that, at minimum, a number of agency employees perceived that they weren't supposed to talk about climate change or global warming.
[Threatened by climate change, Florida reportedly bans term 'climate change']
McCoy also spoke with another researcher, Elizabeth Radke, who told a similar story about running into problems with the phrase "climate change" in review of a scientific paper by a branch of the Florida state government, in this case, the Florida Department of Health.
[Florida scientist told to remove words 'climate change' from study on climate change]
What I find amazing about this story, though, is the short memory of today's media, most of whom aren't mentioning where this type of problem originates. In terms of trying to control the "message" about climate change as conveyed in government documents and agency communications — and thereby generating a media scandal — the pioneer was the administration of George W. Bush.
In October, this paper ran an obituary for Rick Piltz, a whistleblower who left the Bush administration after exposing, as our obituary put it, "how top-level George W. Bush administration officials edited scientific reports to minimize the link between human activity and climate change." Piltz's whistleblowing memo, dated June 1, 2005, is still online — and still a scathing indictment, precisely because it is logical and careful, and yet also uncompromising in taking a stand against political interference with science and scientific communications.
It's required reading for any student of the politics of science, in the United States or anywhere else.
Here's an excerpt, describing why Piltz left the U.S. Climate Change Science Program:
I believe the overarching problem is that the administration…does not want and has acted to impede forthright communication of the state of climate science and its implications for society….The problem is manifested especially at the points at which the key scientifically based assessments of climate change touch on the arenas of policymaking and research planning. The administration will not accept and use appropriately the findings and conclusions of the national and international climate assessments, and it hinders and even prevents the climate science program from doing so.
Thus, the story of political figures exerting control over the discussion and presentation of climate change, in official expert agency communications and actions, is really a very old one. The chief difference with the Scott story, though, is that since 2005, the science of climate change has gotten more and more certain and well established — making attempts to muffle it seem more and more egregious and out of touch.
In the year in which Piltz was writing — 2005 — the most recent scientific assessment by the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change had come out in 2001. In that report, the critical sentence about whether global warming was human caused read thusly: "most of the observed warming over the last 50 years is likely to have been due to the increase in greenhouse gas concentrations." "Likely," in IPCC parlance here, meant a 66 to 90 percent scientific confidence in the judgment.
But Scott has the benefit of two additional assessments since then, both of which have upped the scientific certainty about this key conclusion significantly.
In 2007, the IPCC's Fourth Assessment Report concluded that "most of the observed increase in global average temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations" — where "very likely" means a greater than 90 percent expert confidence in the conclusion.
Then in 2013, the IPCC's Fifth Assessment Report bumped the certainty level up yet again. This time, the report said, it is "extremely likely that human influence has been the dominant cause of the observed warming since the mid-20th century." "Extremely likely" means a confidence level of 95 percent or greater. Not many scientific conclusions get this tag from the IPCC.
Again, progress.
So in sum, what can we say about the Scott administration climate scandal?
At least two things. First, given the prevalence of climate change skepticism in the Republican Party over the past two decades, it's safe to say that if a GOP politician ends up in an executive post (governor, president) overseeing a variety of science-focused agencies, then attempts to control climate science communications can clearly happen. We've seen that dynamic with George W. Bush, and we've seen it with Scott.
And we've also seen that government scientists and other officials bristle under this kind of interference and eventually, tell the media (and the world) the story. It's a pattern.
And second: The main difference between now and 2005, when the Bush administration climate science scandals really blew up, is that the argument for taking climate change seriously today is massively stronger. Back in 2005, the Bushies could rightly point to a roughly 1/3 chance that scientists were wrong about this whole human-caused global warming. Still bad odds — and still no justification for interfering with the communication of science. But hey, at least it was a colorable argument.
Today, in light of the IPCC assessments above, Scott has, at best, a 5 percent chance of being right and all the world's scientists wrong about climate change (and I'd call that very generous). And this, most of all, is why the current news out of Florida is troubling indeed.

Test-retest Reliability in Word Recognition Testing in Subjects with Varying Levels of Hearing Loss
The purpose of this study was to determine the test-retest reliability of digitally recorded word recognition materials. Word recognition testing is included in a complete audiological evaluation to measure an individual's ability to discriminate what they hear. A phonetically balanced list of 50 monosyllabic words was presented to each participant at four different sensation levels (SL) using the American Speech Language Hearing Association recommended protocol for word recognition score testing. Each participant took a 10 minute break before the test was readministered. Participants included 40 subjects with varying levels of hearing loss, from normal hearing to severe hearing loss. The test and retest scores of all participants were analyzed to estimate the test-retest reliability to be .65 at 10 dB SL, .87 at 20 dB SL, .88 at 30 dB SL, and .95 at 40 dB SL. It was concluded that the word lists have strong test-retest reliability at 20, 30, and 40 dB SL and that the reliability increases as the presentation level increases.

|Task does not enter reduce function after secondary sort
|Sun, 04 Nov 2012 20:18:14 GMT
Hi, I am using a Secondary Sort for my Hadoop program. My map function emits (Text,NullWritable) where Text contains the composite key and appropriate comparison functions are made and a custom Partitioner . These seem to be working fine. I have been struggling with the problem that these values are not being received by the reduce function and instead automatically get written to the hdfs in x number of files where x is the number of reducers. I have made sure the reduce function is set to my Reduce function and not identity reduce. Can someone please explain this behavior and what could be possibly wrong ? Thanks & Regards, Aseem

Wooden cutlery is all around Pinterest at the moment. They suit a rustic wedding or an outdoor wedding. Of course if you are planning a little BBQ or event they are perfect for this as well. After they have been used you can throw them away which makes them simply perfect.
The main beauty of wooden cutlery is that they can be styled to suit your day. You can paint them brightly, stamp them with your initials or even dip them in glitter if you wish!
They are super cheap and can be bought from eBay for very little. Here they are £2.95 for 100 knives.
In this post I have shown three ways to pretty-up your wooden knives and forks.
You Will Need:
Wooden Cutlery
Washi Tape
Ink Pad
Wrap washi tape around the top as a guideline.
Metallic gold Acrylic paint was used on this fork.
Paint all the way to the top of the tape to the bottom.
Leave to dry and then peel off the tape.
Washi Tape:
Start at an angle.
Move down the spoon at an angle leaving a space between each tape line.
Rip off the tape at the back, at the bottom of the spoon.
Tie with twine to finish the rustic look.
Hobbycraft stamps were used and I chose a simple heart.
Without pressing too hard, stamp a single heart at the bottom of the spoon.
Video Tutorial:
Now for the out-takes:
Lots of Love
