Our CEO, Jan Kriekels, and some Jaga employees walked 22 km to support The Climate Miles. This walk started in the Netherlands on the 1st of November and will end in Paris on the 28th of November, where the UN Climate Change Conference (COP21) will be held. Anyone is free to join the walk, whether for a day, a week, or the entire month.
Respect Nature
Scientists are very clear: Global warming is happening and we are the primary cause. Certain gases trap heat and act like a blanket to warm the planet. One of the most important is carbon dioxide (CO2), which we release into the atmosphere when we burn fossil fuels — oil, coal, and natural gas — to generate electricity, power our vehicles, and heat our homes.
As we overload our atmosphere with carbon dioxide, more and more heat is trapped — and Earth steadily warms up in response. How do we know? The scientific evidence is overwhelming.
The effects of climate change are already there and will get worse if we don't take action quickly. We can still do a lot to prevent the worst to happen, but together we have to show the world that the time to act is now!

On Friday, I paid a visit to the Carpenters Estate in Stratford, in east London, to show solidarity with the Focus E15 Mothers, a group of single mums, from Stratford, who were recently kicked out of a hostel where they had been staying, because of budget cuts, and were threatened with being scattered across the UK.
On Open House Weekend (September 20-21), making a great political point while the rich and powerful opened up prestigious properties for a day or two, the mums occupied a small block of flats, in perfectly habitable condition, which had been boarded up for years as part of the Labour-controlled council's ongoing attempts to empty the Carpenters Estate so that it can be sold to housing developers.
In an article for the Guardian last week, Aditya Chakrabortty succinctly analysed the current situation regarding the Carpenters Estate," which, he wrote, "was long ago cleared of most of its residents as Newham council tried to flog the land. Except the last deal fell through, leaving around 600 council homes empty. This is in a borough where more than 24,000 households are waiting for somewhere to live, and where, last winter, the shopping precinct was full of rough sleepers." Read the rest of this entry »
Everywhere I look in London, monstrous new housing developments are rearing up — unaffordable to most working people, and largely bought up by foreign investors. While some take up residence, others leave their investments empty or join the frenzy of home-grown landlords in the buy-to-let market, fleecing an ever-increasing percentage of London's workforce, who simply cannot afford to buy a property and have no choice but to cough up whatever outrageous amount they are asked to pay by landlords who have been unregulated since the days of Margaret Thatcher, the great liberator of unfettered greed.
This is the new London, in which those involved in new housing developments act as pimps for rich foreigners and for Britain's own wealthiest property owners, and struggling British workers are preyed on by their fellow citizens, in a market driven by the greedy sense of entitlement that motivates far too many landlords, and a housing bubble kept inflated by the government and the Bank of England, whose refusal to raise interest rates is the primary driver of an economy in which profiteering on housing is seen, by far too many people, as their only viable investment.
However, the situation is now so dire that last week a YouGov poll commissioned by the Evening Standard — normally nothing more than a front for the mortgage industry — revealed that "[h]alf of Londoners want house prices to fall." Read the rest of this entry »
I was rather pleased that I was out of the country when Boris Johnson, London's Mayor, announced on March 31 that he was approving plans for the development of Convoys Wharf in Deptford, because, in a city overrun with soulless riverside developments, designed almost exclusively for wealthy foreign investors and unaffordable for ordinary Londoners, it is a particularly depressing example, and one that, for me, is close to home, as I live just up the road from Deptford.
The 40-acre riverside site has been vacant since 2000, when it was closed by its last owner, News International, which used it as a dock for importing newsprint, and, since 2002, developers — initially NI itself, and, since 2005, the Hong Kong-based Hutchison Whampoa, which bought the site off NI — have been trying to gain approval for a Dubai-style high-rise residential development on the site, consisting of 3,500 homes, featuring one 48-storey tower, and two 38-storey towers, far higher than anything else on the shoreline for miles around.
Normally, Chinese businessmen with £1bn to spend on luxury housing on London's riverfront don't have to wait for years to have their plans accepted, but the problem with Convoys Wharf is that it was and is a place of great historic importance — the site of the first of King Henry VIII's Royal Dockyards, which was first developed in 1513 to provide ships for England's rapidly expanding Royal Navy. Read the rest of this entry »
Please sign the petition on Change.org, asking London's Mayor, Boris Johnson, not to approve a £1bn plan to turn Henry VIII's former Royal Dockyard at Convoys Wharf in Deptford into a luxury, high-rise housing development that would be more at home in Dubai.
All over London, housing developments that are unaffordable for the majority of Londoners continue to rise up, and equally unaffordable new projects continue to be approved. Councils are either cash-strapped and desperate, or they are seduced by developers' promises that their developments will be of benefit to the community at large, even though the entry level for luxury developments is a household income of £72,000, way above the £53,000 that even a couple on the average UK income (£26,500) can afford. When you consider that the median income in the UK is £14,000 (the one that 50 percent of people earn more than, and 50 percent earn less than), it's easy to see how the entire situation is out of control and is doing nothing for local people, or the majority of hard-working Londoners.
Down the road from where I live in south east London is Deptford, a vibrant but not affluent part of the London Borough of Lewisham, with a huge maritime history. Where Deptford meets the River Thames is the largest potential development site in the borough, Convoys Wharf, a 16.6 hectare (40-acre) site, which most recently was News International's paper importing plant for printing Rupert Murdoch's newspapers. Murdoch's operation closed in 2000, and, since 2002, developers have been trying to gain approval for a massive luxury housing development on the site, featuring 3,500 homes — 3,000 of which will be sold "off-plan" to foreign investors — and including three towers rising to 40 storeys in height. Moreover, just 15 percent of the homes will be what is laughingly described these days as "affordable" (at 80 percent of market rents, these rents are actually unaffordable for most people), and just 4 percent will be for social rent (i.e. genuinely affordable) — that's just 140 properties out of the total of 3,500.

Ever since the Tory-led coalition government got into power and ministers made it clear that they were seeking to do as much damage as possible to the poor, the ill, the unemployed and the disabled, and to dismantle, if possible, every state-owned enterprise, and anything that expresses some notion of communality and doesn't involve naked profiteering, misery and uncertainty have been on the rise, and with good reason.
As I have stated in numerous articles over the last few years, the assault on the unemployed and disabled has been particularly heart-wrenching, as the Tories, their spin doctors, their Lib Dem accomplices and their cheerleaders in the mainstream media have portrayed the unemployed as skivers, despite there being only one job available for every five of the country's 2.5 million unemployed, and have portrayed disabled people with similar flint-hearted distortions.
As a result, wave after wave of vile policies have been introduced with very little outrage from people who probably don't regard themselves as particularly cruel or heartless — the reviews for the disabled, run by Atos Healthcare, which are designed to find people with severe mental and physical disabilities fit for work, so that their benefits can be cut; the workfare programs for the unemployed that are akin to slavery and allow well-off companies to fundamentally undermine the minimum wage; and the overall benefit cap, the most popular policy in this new Cruel Britannia, according to a YouGov poll in April, in which 79 per cent of people, including 71 per cent of Labour voters, supported it. This is forcing tens of thousands of families to uproot themselves — with all the attendant social costs, particularly for their children — and move to cheaper places, which tend to be those with high unemployment, creating ghettoes, as part of a disgraceful process of social cleansing.

Well, what a lovely place Britain is these days. For the last two weeks, Raquel Rolnik, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on housing, has been visiting the UK to "monitor and promote the realisation of the right to adequate housing," visiting London, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Belfast and Manchester, where, as a UN press release explained, "she met with government officials working on housing issues, various human rights commissions, academics and civil society." She "also carried out site visits, where she heard first-hand testimonies and discussed with individuals, campaigners and local community organisations."
However, when she dared to criticise the deteriorating state of Britain's social housing provision, and to call for the "bedroom tax" to be scrapped, she was laid into by senior Tories, and by the right-wing media, in a series of vile and hysterical outbursts that ought to be a disgrace to any country that claims to be civilised.
The "bedroom tax" is a widely reviled policy dreamed up by the millionaires in the Tories' cabinet, which provides financial penalties for people living in social housing and in receipt of benefits who are deemed to have a spare room. It is forcing many people to move from homes they have lived in for decades, even though there are very few smaller properties to which they can move. Read the rest of this entry »
Ever since the Tories came to power in May 2010, aided by the Liberal Democrats, who, sadly, demonstrated that everything they professed to believe in could be discarded if it meant being in government, the very fabric of civil society in the UK has been faced with extinction. This is a country that has developed a welfare safety net to protect the most vulnerable members of society and those who have fallen on hard times, and one that has guaranteed healthcare for its entire population, through the NHS, paid for through general taxation, but the Tories are determined to destroy it, and far too many people have been fooled by their poisonous persecution of the poor and disabled, and their ideologically motivated "age of austerity," which continues to ruin any chance of economic recovery, while plunging millions of people further into serious poverty.
On Monday, April 1, multiple welfare cuts hit hundreds of thousands of the poorest and most vulnerable members of society, and although two newspapers led with the news on their front pages — the Guardian ("The day Britain changed") and the Daily Mirror ("D-Day for Savage Con-Dem Cuts") — there is no sign that the British people, in general, have woken up to the full ramifications of what is being done in their name.
From the beginning of the Tories' attack on the state, the government and large parts of the media have successfully lied about the unemployed and the disabled being scroungers and shirkers, creating a climate of mean-spiritedness and hatred amongst my fellow citizens that I have found to be both shocking and disgraceful, because the blunt truth, which anyone could find out if they could be bothered, is that there are around 2,500,000 people unemployed but only 500,000 job vacancies.

While Tyrants Sleep: Canary Wharf at Night, a set on Flickr.
On November 14, 2012, as I explained in my previous photo set, "Curious Insomnia: A Journey through Deptford and Millwall to Canary Wharf at Night," I decided, at 1am, to cycle from my home in Brockley, in south east London, down through Deptford and Greenwich, and through the Greenwich Foot Tunnel to the Isle of Dogs, where I cycled through Millwall, via the former docks and South Quay Plaza (and the DLR station) to Canary Wharf, the multi-towered financial centre and underground shopping complex that has been sucking the lifeblood out of the rest of London since it overcame its early wobbles under Margaret Thatcher and John Major, and became a magnet for dodgy unregulated bankers and obsessive materialists during the reign of Tony Blair.
It is, in fact, a place which, as Owen Hatherley explained in an excellent article for the Guardian last year (which I also drew on here), is responsible for "the most spectacular expression of London's transformation into a city with levels of inequality that previous generations liked to think they'd fought a war to eliminate." Read the rest of this entry »
Modern Britain is gripped by a cold-heartedness created by a sense of entitlement — not the entitlement to meagre benefits that is so shamefully touted by the Tory leaders of the coalition government as an excuse for hateful attacks on the welfare state, but the entitlement of those like David Cameron and George Osborne and those they represent, those who feel entitled to use clever accountants to avoid paying tax, both individually and in relation to the companies and corporations they support, and those who believe that it is acceptable to exploit others to live in the manner to which they believe they are entitled — which many people do through property.
These people, through their invented sense of entitlement, are presiding over the creation of the most hideously unequal society since before the time of the great Victorian reformers, who, in contrast, were inspired by a desire to help the poor rather than punish them, and were often inspired by the words and deeds of Jesus Christ. As a response to unfettered exploitation and hideous inequality, these reformers laid the foundations for the welfare state in the second half of the 19th century, foundations that were only fully realised through the establishment of the modern welfare state (including the creation of the NHS) by a Labour government after the Second World War.
However, in modern Britain, the notion of Christian charity is severely endangered by naked profiteers and those who, less obviously but no less damagingly, exploit those who cannot afford to buy their own homes to charge hideously expensive rents in a rental market that is unregulated by government, and is, moreover, one in which rampant greed has become commonplace.

Last Wednesday, while George Osborne was delivering his Autumn Statement, taking aim at the most vulnerable members of society once more, with another savage attack on the welfare state, I was in central London, and I returned home after he had made his smug and visibly heartless performance in the House of Commons, when the Evening Standard was already announcing his new attack on the poor and disabled.
The Standard's headline — "George Osborne hits welfare for poor and raids pensions of rich" — was not exactly a ringing endorsement of the Chancellor's statement, but it failed to dent the prejudices of the two women next to me, who were returning home, presumably from their office jobs. As they idly perused the paper, they complained about the amount of money the unemployed receive, followed swiftly by a complaint that they then sit around at home doing nothing. There was no mention of the fact that most of what the unemployed receive from the government goes to their landlords, or that there is still only one job for every five people who are unemployed, let alone the fact that a large proportion of benefits are actually paid to working people who aren't otherwise paid enough money to survive on. Why let anything that might lead you to regard the unemployed as fellow human beings interfere with some knee-jerk bigotry?
Complaining that they too were suffering, they then spent the rest of their journey home — disturbingly, to Brockley, where I also live — rather undermining their case, by talking about party dresses and which gyms they attended. Read the rest of this entry »

Drunk Driving
Author: David Hill
Drunk driving involvement in fatal motor-vehicle crashes is on the rise. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, alcohol was involved in 41 percent of fatal crashes in 1995. Between 1982 and 1993, 266,291 deaths in the United States were alcohol related - one fatality every 30 minutes. How about trying a Breathalyzer. What if friends started to talk about drunk driving?
Growing up in high school I remember my friends talking about how wasted they got at the Friday night party. "Ya, we floated that keg," or "I had to stop on the side of the road to puke." Never did we talk about drunk driving or the implications of it.
It is illegal to operate a motor vehicle with a BAC of .08 or more. It is also a crime to test with a blood alcohol concentration of .08 or more within two hours of driving a vehicle. Blood alcohol concentrations are determined by testing the level of alcohol present in a driver's blood. Alcohol is testable because it is not processed like other food products. When alcohol is ingested it is absorbed into the bloodstream. This absorption is what causes the alcoholic effect we call intoxication.
Under normal circumstances, drivers suspected of having high blood alcohol concentrations are asked to submit to a Breathalyzer test. This test is the most commonly used because it provides the officer with an immediate result. Blood and urine samples must be submitted to a laboratory for testing.
What if someone pulled out a Breathalyzer and tested their friends BAC (Blood Alcohol Content). Maybe it would wake people up to see how drunk they really are. An Alcohol Breathalyzer determines the concentration of alcohol in blood or breath and has come to be regarded as the most objective indicator of impaired driving.
Alcohol-Breathalyzer.com says know what you're getting into before you get behind the wheel. The nationwide standard for dwi and dui cases is .08 BAC. If you don't know you are chancing your life and the life of others. Be Safe, Be Sure… Accurate, Affordable and easy to use the CA 2000 Alcohol Breathalyzer is here for you Now!

Don't assume that the chemistry of paper is of interest only to your paper supplier. If you convert paper, what you don't know can hurt you.
If you effortlessly convert packages, cartons, or labels with high recycled fiber and high ash content and flawlessly print in four or more colors, then don't read on. But, if you sometimes have trouble with dusting, changing printing blankets too often, or fretting over bottle labels that can't stand up to a bath, then you should know about a breakthrough in paper chemistry called "microparticle technology."
First a few words about the composition of paper today. The more you know about what's in your sheet, the better able you will be to achieve the properties you need during converting. And that's not easy, considering the way the composition of most grades has changed over the past few years. Just because the paper you use has the same brand name doesn't necessarily mean it contains the same ingredients.
As you know, waste furnish and ash content are usually higher these days. In addition, many other, sometimes incompatible, additives and contaminants are in the sheet. The combination of ingredients can have significant impact on end performance.
Seeking Harmony
For this reason new chemistry has been needed to bring "harmony" to the sheet and to program in the properties to meet specifications that you or your customers seek.
In fact, silica-based microparticle technology is already revolutionizing paper and actually helping converters, who may not even be aware of it. The discovery has been used in fine paper grades, liquid packaging, and linerboard for about 15 years. In papermaking the simultaneous control of retention, dewatering, and strength of the sheet while it's being made is key to a high quality base sheet. If you can control those functions, you can actually take control of the way molecules lock together in the sheet.
From this foundation your paper supplier can enhance this "interactive" sheet with complementary chemicals that improve sizing, formation, and other qualities. The result is better printability and moldability, better adhesion to glass or plastic, and other desired properties. For converters wanting to reduce basis weight of recycled linerboard, microparticle technology can address that also.
Since the paper you buy isn't labeled "Microparticle" or "Containing Molecular Harmony," how do you know if all the desired properties you want are built into the sheet you buy?
Trial and error is one way. Another approach is to ask your paper supplier for a breakdown of precisely what your sheet contains. Just as the phrase "Intel Inside" has become important to users of advanced personal computers, you may want to know if microparticle technology is in your sheet. You may also want the provider of microparticle technology to be included in a problem-solving or product-development effort with your paper supplier.
Over the long term many problems will be minimized, including dusting due to higher ash content in the sheet, sheets that have improper register because they slip, or labels that are poorly printed or fall off.
It is expected by many that the application of microparticle technology will become status quo for most grades within a decade. In the meantime it may be helpful to understand how silica microparticle technology works for various applications and pursue it for your own specific needs.
Poor Esthetics Can Result
Printing is nothing more than a process of "painting" dots on the surface of your sheet. If the dots spread out or sink into the sheet, the lack of micro-uniformity of the sheet will become evident to the naked eye. Sometimes what initially appears to be a problem on the surface is actually a problem in the base paper.
Caliper is critical as the sheet goes through different presses. If paper is weaker or less dense, it compresses differently. The ink that's picked up differs from spot to spot. Uniformity of the surface relies upon its foundation of uniformity in the base sheet, comprised of fillers, fibers, starchy sizing, and, sometimes, microparticle chemistry.
Just as enhancements in converting equipment can improve quality, modifying or replacing a paper machine can also have an impact on sheet quality. But, machinery can never reach into the sheet the way interactive chemistry can, to actually program molecules to meet desired end-product requirements.
Rebuilding a machine gives some results over time, but you may have to wait several years to see something close to what you are looking for.
Simply stated, if your paper supplier's paper machine is not doing its job, interactive papermaking can often smooth out the papermaking process itself. This will, in turn, improve converting and the end product you are expected to produce.
When coating isn't uniform, it can come apart and pick on your printing presses. Once again, if you have a good base sheet to accept the coating, you shouldn't have spotty printing. Your papermaking supplier needs a sheet that can be compressed evenly and polished through the super calenders to give you the gloss you need.
Advantages for Labels
Hard sizing in a well-formed base sheet is especially important with labels. The dual job of accepting color printing on one side and bonding well on the other is critical. If formation is not uniform, the label won't print or attach well.
Wet processes for liquor and other glass bottles place even tougher demands on labels. The color printing process requires a strong label in itself; the bath stages demand even more in the way of strength. If your base sheet wasn't formed well, this will become evident through picks in the printing, or, even worse, it will fall apart as it goes through the various baths. Silica microparticle application at the mill can add strength, allow sizing to be more uniform, and, thus, give better printing and label integrity during the hostile wet processes.
Slitter dust can be a growing problem as filler content increases. If fillers are better distributed in the sheet, they will be held tighter in fine paper or board. When filler distribution is poor, it's like hitting a chalk motherload in the sheet, generating a lot of dust. Once again, better formation of the sheet distributes chalk evenly through the sheet. Silica microparticle technology accomplishes this by locking molecules in place to meet a desired outcome.
Since the Rule 41 change allowed the use of lower basis weight linerboard, provided that it has equal strength, some converters are helping their customers to lower shipping costs with thinner board. This savings is achieved by adding a proprietary combination of silica and cationic starch while the board is being made. Beyond the straightforward savings through lowered weight, issues such as improved scoring and flexibility of board are also being tested.
Converting by design adds to the end performance of the product. The paper you use should contribute to that objective. If your paper supplier is using microparticle technology, additives, and advanced sizing in an interactive way to meet your needs, paper won't be a bottleneck to your success in the marketplace. The hidden advantage of paper chemistry could help you open the way to exciting new possibilities.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease Surgeries
Patients with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis require meticulously coordinated care from their surgeons and gastroenterologists. Virtually all patients are candidates for new medications, research protocols and recently developed surgical procedures that contribute to disease remission or cure and improved quality of life. Care of patients with inflammatory bowel disease, therefore, is ideally delivered in a team setting, such as that available at Virginia Mason.
Surgical Procedures for Crohn's Disease
Most patients with Crohn's disease eventually require surgical intervention. Pain, intestinal obstruction, bleeding, fistula formation and anal infections are frequent. Patients may not respond to the best medical treatment and thus may need surgical intervention. The gastrointestinal-surgery team at Virginia Mason has performed hundreds of operations on patients with Crohn's disease. State-of-the-art techniques include procedures that permit resection of only minimal amounts of intestine, or even avoid removal of any bowel. Patients with severe anal infections are offered newer techniques that preserve continence and avoid colostomies.
Ulcerative Colitis
The surgical team at Virginia Mason has performed in excess of 400 ileal-pouch procedures (i.e., the ileal-anal reservoir) in patients with severe ulcerative colitis. This procedure avoids the need for an ileostomy and cures the disease. Data accumulated from our center has documented that quality of life improves markedly after this procedure. See the Relevant Publications section for references.

Guys, I'm geeking out because today's the big day! The all new Spring inspired recipes, nutrition ebooks, and wellness videos from the Spring edition of the NS Society is available here. I've been working for the last few months on recipe testing, taking photos, filming, and tweaking here and there and I have to say that I think the Spring edition of the NS Society is even better than the last. I can't get enough of Spring produce – strawberries, zucchini, asparagus, fresh herbs – so I incorporated them into all new recipes just for the Society. The Creamy Zucchini Soup recipe is one of the featured recipes in the Spring edition. It's incredibly simple to make, the use of coconut milk makes it so creamy (but with no dairy!), and packed with flavor even though there's less than 10 ingredients. Try it out for yourself and let me know what you think!
- 2 large zucchini (or 4 small), chopped
- ½ medium red onion, chopped
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cups canned organic full fat coconut milk
- 1 cup vegetable stock
- Juice of 2 lemons
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- In a medium-hot skillet, add olive oil, onion, garlic, and zucchini. Cook until fragrant and tender, about 15 minutes. Add vegetable stock during this cooking process to help steam cook the zucchini in the skillet (about ½ cup use the rest for blending).
- In a high-speed blender, combine all remaining ingredients and blend until thick and smooth. Taste test to adjust for any seasonings or lemon juice and re-blend. Store in an airtight glass container, to reheat pour in a pot and cook on medium or until warm.
- Notes: Add proteins like organic tempeh, organic tofu, or chickpeas to bulk up the soup and make it more of a meal. Also top with healthy fats like sliced avocado, pumpkin seeds, or a drizzle of olive oil.
Springtime is all about growth – trees and plants are starting to bud and flower and the grass is FINALLY looking green again. If you're feeling inspired by the changing season and ready for some growth of your own but need a little help, sign up for The NS Society and get simple meal plans, healthy recipes, wellness guides, workout videos, and best of all – join a community focused on living whole and finding a balanced wellbeing and get the support you need to see it through!

2048: The Game That's Ruining Our Lives
Hello, my name is Madeline and I'm an addict. It all started innocently enough. I heard about the new game from a friend. I just wanted something to do during my morning commute. But all that swiping, up, down, left and right to pass the time soon became something more.
And now I can't stop playing 2048.


text: The voting began on Sunday morning, where the enthusiasm and energy was apparent as each voter played their part in this historic event that determined the direction and future of the Canal and Panama. By law, expansion, or the "third set of locks project," must be put to a vote in a popular referendum. The Panama Canal Authority (ACP) presented its formal proposal to the Panamanian government in April. In the end, 78 percent voted for expansion, as of 9:30 p.m. EDT. "Today, Panamanians made history. We are honored by their trust and humbled by the responsibility in front of us," said Dr. Ricaurte Vásquez Morales, chairman of the ACP's board of directors and concurrent minister for Canal affairs. "We spent years studying, researching and preparing and we are ready. This project will be done efficiently and transparently. With this vote, the Canal will be able to grow with demand, improve service, spur economic growth in Panama and maintain the Canal's competitive advantage," Vásquez concluded. After 92-years of serving world commerce, the Canal will have a major expansion. This expansion will accommodate surging demand for the Canal's routes and services, particularly the rapid growth in traffic from Asia, through the Canal, to the United States and back -- known as the "All-Water Route." Expansion will build a new lane of traffic along the Panama Canal through the construction of a new set of locks, which will double capacity and allow more traffic and wider ships. The Panama Canal is nearing maximum capacity and needs to grow with demand. The result of comprehensive analyses and studies by the ACP, expansion is estimated to cost $5.25 billion and will be paid by Canal customers through a system of graduated toll increases. An expanded Canal would benefit the people of Panama and world trade, and would help maximize Panama's strategic location to become the great maritime hub of the Americas.

"Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy," the [tag]Fourth Commandment[/tag], has taken on diverse meanings in our culture, which is one that never shuts down. Use these [tag]Sunday school crafts[/tag] to teach your lesson on this commandment to your younger children.
For some children Sunday means that their parents will be scheduled to work, while for others it means homework for Monday. For some it still means the traditional dinner at Grandma's house, but these students seem to be in the minority more and more often. For all lifestyles and schedules, there are still ways to keep the Sabbath holy – special, restful, and a day to look forward to in our week for rejuvenation of our faith. [tag]The Sabbath[/tag] is a special day for our relationship with the Lord.
Gratitude Picture
This is an activity for your younger [tag]Sunday school[/tag] students. One of the ways to keep Sunday as God's special day is to be thankful for all they have. Have them draw a picture of something they are thankful for.
Have crayons ready and a half-sheet of construction paper for each child so that kids can draw. When all have arrived and finished a picture, have them share what's in their gratitude picture.The half-sheet size is important because later they will frame these with a whole sheet.
Next have students
– take their original gratitude picture
– run stick glue across the back
– Center it on a whole sheet of paper on which you have written the words, "I am grateful on the Sabbath for"¦"
They can also opt to draw some things onto the construction paper.
They can take their picture home and put in their room where they can see it. This will remind them to be greatful all week and of the special way they honored the Sabbath.

2017 saw the largest number of grants and rewards recipients at the annual Monbulk and District Community Bank's Community Investment and Rewards night.
This year 27 local groups, clubs and not-for-profit organisations shared over $36,000 in grants and rewards.
This latest Community Investment and Rewards night brings the bank's total community investment to over $200,000 in only five years.
As director of the Monbulk and District Community Bank Sarah Tebbutt explained, it's thanks to the Community Enterprise Foundation – the charitable arm of the Bendigo and Adelaide Bank – that the branch is able to give back to the community.
"The Community Bank Model is one of the most unique business models in the world, and we are so proud that our town has its own bank and able to give profits straight back to the source," Mrs. Tebbutt said.
"On the night, many clubs including the Monbulk Tennis Club, Girls Guides, Monbulk 1st Scouts, Monbulk Care Network, CWA, Monbulk, The Patch and St Pauls Primary school, Monbulk College, Monbulk Netball Club, Senior Football/Netball Club, Monbulk Junior Football, Monbulk Cricket Club, Monbulk Men's Shed, Monbulk Rotary, Monbulk RSL and the Monbulk Rangers Soccer club all received cheques."
Mountain District Christian School, Monbulk CFA, Marlins Swimming Club, Monbulk College and CWA Lady Night Hawks were also rewarded with grants for some outstanding projects.
"Monbulk CFA were in desperate need of funds for a new piece of thermal imaging equipment with a price tag of $11, 500," Mrs Tebbutt said.
"As a volunteer organisation this is a big ask, however in partnership with Monbulk and District Community Bank, the CFA raised $5500 and the bank was pleased to be able to make the $6000 contribution to purchase this equipment."
Peter Edyvane of Monbulk CFA accepted the cheque and explained the significance of this equipment in search and rescue operations saving precious time and potentially lives.
The CWA Lady Night Hawks also received a grant to purchase a commercial freezer that will assist them and others working on the wonder project called The Table.
"This project is a fabulous display of the caring and generous nature of our community and the freezer will assist this project greatly," Mrs Tebbutt said.
"Monbulk College and Marlin Swimming Club both also received grants for new equipment that will enhance their programs."
To find out more about how clubs or groups can participate in Monbulk and District Community Bank Branch's Community Investment and Rewards program, call in at 70 Main Road, Monbulk, phone 9752 1130 or connect with them on Facebook.

My husband was diagnosed 3 weeks ago with rhumatoid arthritis, I know this seems way off our topics, but his rhumatolagist put him on a drug she says is used for cancer..methotrexate...she said it may cause mouth sores and losing hair. This is the end of the second week, he takes 3 once a week. I'm very concerned because, while he's had no side effects, he's so weak and tired all the time. He's still working ( construction) and suffering swollen knees,ankles,wrists...and his feet are so sore he can hardly hobble around. Has anyone used this drug? I keep trying to get him to see someone else, but he's so damn stubborn...Oh and can you all please say a little prayer that it'll get better thanks
Nov 10, 2012 - 7:39 pm
Hi there...I have Psoriatic Arthritis (very similiar..autoimmune disease). I was diagnosed about 5 yrs ago. For years prior I was given methotrexate(among other drugs as well)...it did NOTHING for me. I was in so much pain, had major swelling, and suffered fatigue. I finally found a different Rheumatologist and he prescribed Humira (self injections). Within 2 weeks I was almost back to the old me. I gained all my mobility back, swelling decreased, and got my energy back. As the months and years went on, it only got better. It wasn't until recently that he took me off because I got some kind of an infection (sinus/throat) that I was having trouble getting over. The Humira lowers your ability to fight infections, so he said I had to get off for awhile. It's actually been a month and a half that I've been off it and no signs. I'm praying to God it may have gone in remission.....as I'm dealing with my loved one with Cancer, it would be great to have myself healthy.
Humira is prescribed for Rheumatoid Arthritis also. Although my Rheumatologist said I have the PSA, he did not rule out that the RA could come later...dual diseases. I would suggest if he does not get any relief from this treatment, he ask his dr about these TNF Blockers such as Humira, Embrel, and Remicade. They have been life savers for many people. Sometimes remission is achieved.
He will do fine....just takes some time to find out what works. It's not an easy disease but it's better than the word cancer.
Let me know if I can help with anything else. This is highly treatable! Rest your mind...take steps that are needed further if he doesn't get better.
Also: I did not experience mouth sores with the Methotrexate(pill form) and I took 2.5 mg 4 times a week. I don't know how that dosage compares to what he was taking, but I only lost a little hair. Hardly noticable. But simply no relief from it.

Sent it off with the post. Tell him to take is slow and low for a bit if at all possible.
Bless you Katie.

Sorry that you all have more pain and fear on your plates. Hoping that he continues to be side-effect-free, and that his fatigue fades with the pain.

They gave the same medicine to my mother for basically the same thing. She had terrible mouth sores, couldn't eat, very tired, no energy. She finally stopped taking the medicine and the mouth sores cleared up, some energy came back. My sister feels it hastened her death because she feels it affected her heart. But I don't know about that. They gave it to her about 5 months after by-pass surgery and her heart was weak already.
I would definitely get a second opinion.

Just food for thought.... if you are exposed to ticks in your area, be aware of Bartonella, a tick-borne infection similar to Lyme but harder on the body and a little harder to treat and MUCH harder to detect. It's imperative to see a Bartonella-literate medical doctor.
The reason is that the doc who treated me (in Maryland)is a former rheumatologist and has found that a high percentage of his RA patients actually had Bartonellosis from the Bartonella bacteria. Some weren't even infected by ticks but by biting flies (such as a horse fly) and many by fleas.
There's a email@example.com list if you want to post questions, etc.

was getting him to a Dr. in the first place...now he won't look into something different...I love my man, but he is a MULE about things. My dad was no different when it came to getting medical attention...Here's how we got him to go to the Dr. when he broke a rib:
My two sisters and my mom were all fussing over him while he lay in bed...could hardly breath, and was obviously suffering...but no way in he** was he going to the Dr. My husband was watching all us "girls" and our fussing...and finally said "Ya know Sy, I'll bet you don't want to go to the hospital because you're not in enough pain." My dad said "BS, this hurts bad"...and he THEN allowed my mom to drive him up to the emergency room.
I'm sending a prayer that he'll decide his feet simply hurt too bad...and there might be relief at hand if he goes to another specialist...I can't imagine working construction and having all that pain in my feet, not to mention all the other joints.
You're a good caretaker, don't doubt yourself...some of us are more business like about it, but our empathy is there. My husband isn't a very sympathetic caretaker, but he was always THERE to help me out. He also made me laugh everyday even if it was an irreverant crack about my illness or my new appearance. When all my eyelashes fell out he started calling me turtle eye...LOL...I don't know why, but that just cracked me up.

One of my sisters, in her early 50's, has been dealing with RA for several years. She doesn't complain much but I know it is painful for her. It has recently started affecting her feet as well. Not certain if it is the same for everyone but she does have periods where it does not flare up. She tries to exercise and hike when it is not flaring.

Spring is in full swing over here and our family has been busy enjoying the warmer days and spending much of our evenings and weekends setting up our first veggie and fruit garden. I've also managed to get a few spare moments to work on some fun furniture projects.
While I haven't had the time to post on the blog as often as I would like, I am trying to be good about documenting all of our happenings over on Instagram.
One of the projects I've been working on is my April entry for the Fab Furniture Flippin' Contest™.
The Fab Furniture Flippin' Contest™ is a monthly contest where contestants create a themed furniture project with a little help from the monthly product sponsor. The projects are judged and the sponsor provides a prize package to the winner.
The April theme is "Pure Colors, Original Elegance" and this month's sponsor is Pure & Original Paint. Pure & Original is a luxury paint brand that makes their paints to order. Their Classico paint is a chalk based paint that comes in over 120 gorgeous colors.
Maybe it was all the garden veggies I have on my brain or maybe it was my love for the color green but I chose to try out Soft Asparagus, a white color with just a hint of green.
A large china hutch that was one of my first ever refinishing projects was the perfect candidate.
It made the move to our new house with us and has been being used as a toy and kid's art supply cabinet. When we moved the mesh screening was accidentally knocked out and the paint had become quite beat up. I never loved the color and have wanted to paint the cabinet a light bright color and clear it out for my craft supplies.
I left the dusty green color on the interior for now (I haven't decided on a fun interior color yet) and applied 3 coats of Soft Asparagus Classico to the exterior. Removing the doors on the base really opened up the cabinet and gives it the much cleaner "elegant" look that I desired.
Since my craft supplies are currently a royal mess, thrown in tubs and boxes on the other side of the room and up in our attic, I thought styling the piece as a spa/bathroom cabinet would show the versatility of this piece.
I really love the new fresh lighter color and can't wait to fill it up with all my crafting goodies.
I'll be sure to put an update on the blog when I make a final decision on the interior color. Do you have any suggestions for a fun craft room color pop?!
I should probably stop over at Stacy's or Carrie's (our featured hosts) to see all the other participant's "Pure Colors, Original Elegance" projects. It might help me pick a color.
The Fab Furniture Flippin' Contest™ is open to entrants who have signed up through the group Facebook page. If you are interested in becoming a member and having the opportunity to participate in future contests please contact firstname.lastname@example.com to find out how.
Disclosure: Some or all of the hosts of The Fab Furniture Flippin' Contest™ receive monetary and/or product compensation from the sponsoring brand, Pure & Original, in order to complete their themed projects.

Manchester is the Grey Underwear Capital
New research has shown that the ladies of Manchester are the most likely to be wearing greyed-out white underwear than women in any other British city. While most people know that they need to throw out white underwear when it turns grey, Manchester's lady residents tend to have the most greying underwear in their possession, according to laundry expert group Dr Beckmann.
The research revealed that on average female residents in the United Kingdom have about 18 pieces of white underwear. In Manchester, two-thirds of 12 pairs of panties or bras are grey and not their original colour.
Dr Beckmann's research suggested that the cause is usually age or incorrect laundering habits. These Manchester figures are in stark contrast to the numbers from London, where on average each lady has only three items (16%) of greyed-out underwear.
According to Dr Beckmann spokesman Susan Fermor, the ladies of Manchester are probably washing their underwear at the wrong temperature, too often, and doing so with other non-white items.

Many times the mind and body are in sync. Cruelly though, the mind may be sharp, but the body failing or vice versa. In some instances, the mind is ravaged by disease, losing memory and cognition, even though the body hangs tough. It is the wonder of science the depth of how much such a victim remains in touch with reality. I for one believe that good news can and does penetrate even the darkest shroud of fog.
After a long battle with dementia, Violent King passed away on the Fourth of January, 2016. The date is not inconsequential, as only three days prior – on Jan. 1 – a law in Illinois regarding cameras in nursing homes finally went into effect, an achievement she worked to accomplish for decades. Why no one can be sure, I do sincerely believe that before she went to her reward, she knew that the goaline had finally been crossed.
Like so many others in the Riverbend area, I considered Violet to be my friend – not a dear friend, but more of a respected business colleague. When I went to the funeral home in Godfrey for the wake, I spoke to the family, and in particular to her daughter Catherine. I told her that I always remembered her mother to be feisty, opinionated and stubborn — and dedicated — a true believer in every sense of the word. We hugged, and teared a bit, the bonding of former strangers brought together by the power of one exceptionally strong lady.
Her bio was most certainly a clue to her personality and toughness, having escaped in 1945 with her mother and brother from the closed, communist-controlled, border of Albania to Greece, joining up with her father. She went on to achieve academic and scientific recognition in the field of Cytology, authoring several publications in the field and in 1974, she was honored by the St Louis Society of Cytology for her body of work. She remained active in the field for several years thereafter.
I first met Violet in the mid '90s, shortly after she had founded "Nursing Home Monitors". Driven by the bitter experiences of her own mother's residence in a nursing home, Violet was determined to bring accountability to this part of the health care picture. In her zeal for change, she could be relentless, stubborn and single minded of purpose. Compromise, the DNA of the political process, was difficult for her, as on so many issues, she saw the world in terms of black and white, good and evil, with herself correctly on the side of morality. She was the scourge of the less fully compliant nursing home, the tireless champion of the residents so oft times neglected, so frequently forgotten. She gave a voice to those suffering in silence and helped bring about true changes to the Long Term Care Industry. I was proud to say I worked with her.
In 2004, I was the chairman of the Madison County Bar Association's Liberty Bell Award Committee. It is an annual award given by the lawyers in the area to a Citizen without a legal background who has work to promote the interests of Justice. I nominated Violet and she was selected. I can still vividly remember her acceptance speech at the luncheon. I only wish we had recorded it for posterity. While humbly grateful, she was her typical defiant self, blasting away at corporate greed and indifference, ending with the politically incorrect praising of Tort lawyers and the good they do in rectifying the bad, restoring dignity and bringing relief to the victimized. She ended with saying Madison County needs more — not fewer — lawsuits. It was classic.
Her heart now lies still, her time on earth over. But the effect of her work lives on, carrying forth in the increased supervision and accountability that now is the law. I wish her family peace, secure in the knowledge that her time was not wasted nor selfish. The measure of a life well and truly lived is the impact it has on others, lives changed, times made better by the good steward. Violet King made our area safer and more just thru her tireless work. It is a fine and fitting legacy. Rest in peace, my friend.
