Chapel Hill Cabins
The Chapel Hill cabins, located on a forested hillside behind the R-Ranch Chapel, offer owners and their guests unique accommodations in rustic A-frame cabins set in the woods. Quiet and secluded, these cabins appeal to many R-Ranchers as a great way to enjoy "camping" in the woods – without the expense of owning an RV or the outdoor skills of setting up a tent. R-Ranch owners may stay in these cabins for a minimal fee of $3.50 per night for electricity as part of their ownership while owners' guests pay nominal nightly fees.
For nature-lovers and young families, the natural setting of these cabins showcases the best of the southern Appalachians: great views, dozens of different species of trees, colorful native wildflowers, and wildlife.
Each Chapel Hill cabin has basic amenities--electricity, cold running water, and small kitchen appliances--supplemented by two large, heated/air-conditioned bathhouses complete with showers and laundry facilities. Each cabin sleeps at least four people.
A list of items you need to bring for your stay in our rustic cabins is listed on the right side of this page. You may doubleclick on each of the cabins listed below to see how each one is configured and to see photographs of the interior and exterior of each cabin.

Our Road to Regulation
In December 2016, the MTAM together with colleagues from other associations, submitted a report to the Health Minister answering questions and outlining key agreements that Manitoba Health, Seniors and Active Living had requested be worked out to assist them in the process to build a Regulatory College in Manitoba. The MTAM presented this report to member over a series of events across the province. Now that we have completed the tour, we are pleased to be able to post the review the collaborative Summary of the REPORT.
MTAM continues to update members through a series of events over the province. If you would like to join us as a guest at one of the upcoming regulation events or please email email@example.com.
August 31, 2017 PROVINCE ANNOUNCES REGISTERED NURSING PROFESSION TO BE BROUGHT UNDER THE REGULATED HEALTH PROFESSIONS ACT
The Manitoba government has set a date for the registered nursing profession to come under regulation of the Regulated Health Professions Act (RHPA). Honourable Kelvin Goertzen, Minister of Health, Seniors and Active Living announced today that regulations are now in place and will be effective May 31, 2018
The College of Registered Nurses of Manitoba will be the second professional college established under the omnibus legislation. Prior to the RHPA coming into force, there were 21 statutes regulating 22 different health professions. These statutes will all be repealed over time and each profession will then be regulated under the RHPA with profession specific regulations.
Massage Therapy was granted self-regulation in November 2015. We do not currently have a statute, so we can be brought under the act without the added step of having to repeal a current statute. The College of Audiologists and Speech – Language Pathologists of Manitoba was the first regulatory body to be established under the RHPA, coming into force 1st January 2014.
For more information on the RHPA: http://www.gov.mb.ca/health/rhpa/
What does this mean for Massage Therapy?
Overall, it can be seen as positive signal that the Manitoba government is moving forward effectively and despite the timeframe between the first and the second college being brought under the act, we know the details and discussion that were required for the nursing profession was more complicated than it will be for massage therapy and other health care professions.
What number are we?
As we understand, the Manitoba government is working on more than one profession at a time, so we are unsure where we are or will end up being on the list. We are in touch with our main contacts within the Manitoba government regularly and know they are using our report submitted in December 2016 to research, review and prepare for the work to be done for our legislation.
June 1, 2017
Ongoing updates and communication with the Minister's office have been frequent and as they work their way through all of the health care groups in Manitoba to bring them under the Regulated Health Professions Act, Massage Therapists can be assured regulation of the profession is coming. It will take some time,
In the mean time, the MTAM continues to update members through a series of events over the province. If you would like to join us as a guest at one of the upcoming regulation events, please email firstname.lastname@example.com
December 1, 2016
The MTAM together with colleagues from other associations, have submitted a full report to the Health Minister answering questions and outlining key agreements that Manitoba Health had requested be worked out to assist them in the process to build a Regulatory College in Manitoba.
May 1, 2016
The MTAM, along with the other association's representing MT's in Manitoba are working through the list of questions given by the Minister. Finalizing the issues and coming to a final agreement on items will be done in the coming months.
November 24, 2015
It's a great day for Massage Therapy in Manitoba!
For years the Massage Therapy Association of Manitoba (MTAM) has led the way advocating government for regulation of the profession in this province and this week officially all of that hard work and patience has been rewarded. To everyone involved over the years; the Board Members, Staff, and colleagues from across Canada, thank you and congratulations!
Province Announces Massage Therapy Association of Manitoba Taking Next Steps Toward Self-regulation
Letter from the Health Minister
A communication was sent jointly on behalf of the Board of Directors of both the MTAM and the NHPC, who together represent 1325 massage therapists in Manitoba and who are delighted to be working collaboratively as the profession now proceeds to regulation.
Recently, the Health Professions Advisory Council (HPAC), the independent body reviewing the MTAM application for regulation, completed their report and sent it to the Minister of Health, Sharon Blady.
In meetings on Monday, November 23, 2015, the Minister informed us, that after reviewing the details, she has accepted the recommendation of the HPAC that the profession of massage therapy be granted self-regulation under The Regulated Health Professions Act (the RHPA).
Both organizations have already been building the bridges of collaboration necessary to ensure the development of a regulatory college would be organized, timely, and done to the utmost benefit of RMT's in this province.
The Minister has set a course for us to work though core key issues that need to be addressed prior to self-regulation including consultation with healthcare professions who have gone through this process in hopes of easing challenges. Once this work is complete, we, along with the government, will set out timelines for development of a regulatory college to be known as the College of Massage Therapy of Manitoba.
There are some important details we will need to work out, but as our two associations have similar high-quality education requirements and had already started to share and compare information, the Minister of Health expressed gratitude and was assured that we are heading into this process in a positive position.
We know there will be a lot of questions in the coming time, but our respective organizations will continue to communicate with our members often. We are delighted with the good work of the HPAC and with the Health Minister's decision to accept the recommendation for regulation. This milestone recognizes the importance of massage therapy as a healthcare profession in this province. Today is a proud day for the profession in Manitoba!
Massage therapy regulation: What are some benefits for the profession?
Interview with MTAM President Sue Kos-Whicher on the current state regulation and the Association is found in the 2014 update that was wrap on the Winnipeg Free Press during Massage Therapy Awarness week. TAKE TIME TO READ
The MTAM created an awareness campaign surrounding the quest to be the 24th provincially regulated healthcare profession. See a sample in the WAVE Magazine - MTAM Advertisement #24 Campaign: (download)
Summer 2015: Waiting
July 21, 2015: A note from the Secretary of the HPAC: "I have spoken with the Chair of the Council who asked me to advise you that the Council is making good progress on its report and expects to soon submit it to the Minister"
Spring 2015: Waiting
We have had some back and forth communication with the HPAC. Some additional questions and information sent. We also had an excellent meeting that allowed us to better-understand the process that the HPAC has taken and some of their challenges to work out the best process to assess our application and the Paramedics who applied ahead of us. With the Paramedics report now out, we were assured that the Council is now working on the Massage Therapy Application with full focus. An update was sent to all Members and is accessible in the Members-Only area of the website.
Winter 2014: Waiting
Due to political upset in the Manitoba Legislature, progress has been slower than expected. However, we remain optimistic that the HPAC is working to ensure a decision is sent to the Health Minister by the end of 2015
Summer 2014: More Discussion
We have once again had some activity related to our quest for regulation. The Health Professions Advisory Council (HPAC) sent a letter to the MTAM (download) on July 25, 2014 asking for additional clarification and information as it relates to our application.
Members of our Legislative Task Force then formed the response which went back to the HPAC on August 12, 2014. We have included the full response here for your benefit:

Summer 2014
The Health Professions Advisory Council (HPAC) sent us the following update on June 20, 2014:
"The Council has reviewed your email and notes your understanding that the Council's recommendations would be submitted to the Minister of Health by Spring 2014. The Council has asked me to advise you that it is making steady progress to complete its investigation of MTAM's application and is working toward completing its report to the Minister within the next six months."
Not exactly the response the MTAM and members had hoped for, but there is a specified date that holds some promise and we must give credit for a response by the June 21, 2014 deadline.
The MTAM Legislation Task Force met recently and is preparing a series of responses dependent on the final outcome of the HPAC's work or, as in this case, a further delay in a final report. It was the Task Force's opinion that the HPAC has a good deal of work to do in investigating and especially if making recommendations for our regulation. It would not be just a final decision on regulation they are working on but also detailed plans on how things will be run, and so we are giving them respectful space to do their job well.
Spring 2014
We are expecting the HPAC to meet the Minister's Spring deadline and send their recommendations for regulation of the Massage Therapy profession before June 21, 2014. We have heard from the HPAC that this will be the case and, while cautious, are hopeful that they will meet that deadline. We will continue to write and correspond with the HPAC and the Minister's Office to encourage that the publicly-stated deadline be met and to meet to discuss the recommendations or ask for a final decision in a timely manner.
February 25, 2014
In the course of reviewing the MTAM's application, the HPAC sends by email all the documentation and submissions made by us and by others to all the participants in the application process. This includes our last response to the questions posed by HPAC back in July among other documents.

July 3, 2012
MTAM President Susan Kos-Whicher, RMT, announces a public campaign to support the recent application for recognition of the profession of Massage Therapy as a 'Regulated Health Profession' in Manitoba. The campaign features advertising on transit buses and transit shelters in Winnipeg and Brandon. It emphasizes that Massage Therapists want to be #24 - the 24th Health Profession to be regulated by the Province of Manitoba.
May 2, 2012

On May 2, 2012 - MTAM President Susan Kos Whicher, BA, RMT, signed the official application to the Minister of Health for massage therapy to be a regulated health profession in Manitoba, under the Regulated Health Professions Act. The MTAM anticipates that the profession will be the 24th Health Profession to be regulated in the Province of Manitoba. There are currently 22 professions that are regulated.

Download the MTAM letter to then Health Minister Theresa Oswald:
June 2011
The Province of Manitoba proclaims two sections of the RHPA establishing a Health Professions Advisory Council and an application process for professions who want to become regulated. A group of persons representing a health profession who wish to be regulated under The Regulated Health Professions Act must apply for such designation.
June 2009
The Regulated Health Professions Act (Bill 18) received Royal Assent on June 11th, 2009. Twenty-two professions currently regulated will, upon proclamation of the new Act, begin a transition to the new structure. MTAM supports this new legislation and hopes to begin an application process soon.

Bowdoin Summer Art Camp
The Bowdoin Summer Art Camp has a variety of great camps to choose from for youth ages 5-15. Bowdoin Summer Art Camp is a fully-supervised day in the art studio that nurtures seeing, exploration, and creativity in young people. No experience or expertise is necessary, just enthusiasm for the process of making art and a willingness to experiment with new ways of seeing. Each session is designed to work as a separate unit, but a child may enroll in more than one session as long as he or she is the appropriate age.
Camp sessions will take place at the Edwards Center for Art and Dance on the Bowdoin College campus. As weather permits, some sessions will take place outdoors on the campus.
On the last day of each session, young artists will host their family and friends at an artists' reception.
Tuition and Materials Fee
All art supply and reception costs are included in the tuition fee charged for any given week. Fees may vary for each session to accommodate the length of session, guest artists, and materials needed. Campers would need to bring their own snacks and/or a bagged lunch.
A limited number of printed t-shirts will be available for purchase during Art Camp.

Venture back to a land before time! Imagine a fantastic world full of giant reptiles, birds of prey, huge trees, and volcanoes! Campers will go on an archeological dig around the Bowdoin campus and report their findings back at base. We will work two- and three- dimensionally to bring the past back to life! Please join us on the last day of camp for our artists' reception.
2017: Art Explorers II: Magical Garden (Ages 5-6/entering Kindergarten-Grade 1)
It's growing season here in Maine and we will be cultivating artwork from real and imagined gardens. Seeking inspiration from the magic of the natural world, we will draw, sculpt, paint, and print using plants, flowers, vegetables, and fruits. Sure to make an appearance in our created worlds are bugs, fairies, and gnomes. Rain or shine, friends and family are invited on the last day of camp for a celebration!
2017: Art Explorers III: Creature Creation Station (Ages 5-6/entering Kindergarten-Grade 1)
In this workshop, campers learn to see the world through the eyes of an insect, adapting to a tiny perspective of a large world. We will seek inspiration from the out-of-doors—forests, gardens, and backyards—and create artwork involving multiple legs, wings, eyeballs, and antennae. Campers will draw, sculpt, and paint. Friends and family are invited on the last day of camp for a celebration (bug spray optional!).
2017: Art Explorers IV: Ocean Commotion (Ages 5-6/entering Kindergarten-Grade 1)
Campers are invited to dive into a weeklong mixed-media adventure. Come explore the mysteries of the deep on an imaginary deep-sea voyage! In this workshop, campers will create art inspired by tropical fish and ocean life. Young artists will be introduced to the process of paper mache through the construction of colorful 3-D fish! Ocean-themed drawing, painting, collage, and story-telling will be integrated throughout the week for plenty of fishy fun! Friends and family are invited on the last day of camp for a celebration of art.
2017: A Dreamer's World (Ages 7-9/Grades 2, 3, 4)
Young dreamers will delight in a fantastical exploration of art using dreams as our theme. We will construct imagined worlds with invented critters, plants, beings, and buildings. We will draw, paint, and print two-dimensionally, as well as build three-dimensionally. We will create layered artwork that's as wacky, wild, peaceful, funny, inventive, and vivid as the fabric of a dream. Campers will share their dreamscapes with friends and family on the last day of camp.
2017: Printastic! A Watercolor & Print Workshop (Ages 7-9/Grades 2, 3, 4)
Ted and Susan will offer a variety of art resist and printing opportunities for young artists. Starting with crayon resist watercolor work, with an optional poetry writing component, and moving to mono printing and ending with styrofoam relief printmaking, each day will be a workshop unto itself culminating with a Friday art show. The day will end, as always, with group singing of raucous camp songs. Join Ted and Susan for this short but compelling week of art.
2017: Color and Collage (Ages 7-9/Grades 2, 3, 4)
In this workshop, campers will integrate painting, collage, songs, poetry, and games into a week of creativity. Young artists will make hand-painted, textured paper with watercolor on wet paper. They will use salt, sponges, Plexiglas, plastic wrap, straws, and marbleizing techniques to create a variety of nature settings illustrating water, sky, various lands, and times of day. These papers will be the raw materials for creating collages that tell picture stories. Collage themes will be self-directed, but the collage illustrations of Leo Lionni, Lois Ehlert, Steve Jenkins, and Eric Carle will be shared for inspiration.
2017: Color and Collage Craft (Ages 7-9/Grades 2, 3, 4)

2017: Imagination Station: Pictures & Prose (Ages 10-12/Grades 5, 6, 7)
Ever wonder what a piece of art is trying to say? In this workshop, campers will consider the connections between words and images, poetry and pictures, stories and illustrations. We'll create posters, small books, narrative illustrations and more using pen and ink, watercolor, gouache, and a number of exciting mixed media materials. A trip to Bowdoin's Art Museum will spark our imaginations and generate ideas to help us create art that expresses how we see the world with our own characters, stories, myths and drawings. The week will culminate in an art show open to family and friends on the last day.
2017: Collage, Puppets, & Zines Workshop (Ages 10-12/Grades 5, 6, 7)
"Zines" are small limited edition magazines that contain stories and art and are self-published by way of a photocopier. We are going to tell stories all week using images: images with puppets, images with cut paper, images that we have reassembled from magazines, images that we have made with simple printmaking techniques, images that we play with, manipulate, re-manipulate and then assemble into simple "zines." For this class, we will be using various forms of puppetry, a wide range of collage techniques, a couple of very simple printmaking methods, and some simple book making skills. And of course, capture all this in our zines. The week will culminate with an exhibit on Friday for family and friends.
2017: Sew Much Fun: Textiles Workshop (Ages 10-12/Grades 5, 6, 7)
Weave your way through the week exploring all things fabric! Each day will focus on a new method or technique; from sewing to weaving, batiking and more!

2017: I Ink I Can, I Ink I Can: Printmaking Workshop (Ages 10-12/Grades 5, 6, 7)
Get ready to get messy! Artists, you're going to roll out your creativity in ink (and other stuff)! Each day we will learn and practice new techniques of printmaking. Using and building on drawing skills, artists will create prints from observation as well as from our imaginations! Campers will learn to use a professional printing press as well as take a trip to the museum to look at print works on display. Bring your creativity, and I ink you can become a printmaker too! Family and friends are invited on the last day to an artists' reception.
2017: Portrait & Figure Workshop for Teens (Ages 13-15/Grades 8, 9, 10)
Look inward and project outward! In this camp, we will explore both the self-portrait and drawing the figure with pencil, paint, ink and collage.

That was too much detail to begin with but as woman, I have often battled with the feeling that at times, I need to be considered just because I am a woman. Like when we are in a team of ten, nine men and I expected to form a team of two or three, I should be picked automatically because I am a woman. The world does not work that way. The battle against a woman, in some instances, is purely sexist. It is a fact that the few women who work so hard to be at the top go all the way. This, especially in Africa, is not an easy thing a man to handle. A man will bring you down sometimes just because you are a woman. However, there are men who genuinely support women. A good example would be the president of the republic of Kenya backing Amb. Amina Mohammed for AU chair post. As much as I really wish that she will be elected on basis of merit and not politics, I feel so proud when men believe that a woman is competent enough for highly regarded positions.
I have heard stories from my friends where senior men in an organization have had flings with junior females that never ended in the ladies growing career wise. No sexually transmitted promotions. I recently read Danielle Steels; Power Play and I must admit I learned so much. Marshall Weston, A powerful CEO in Northern Carolina has an affair with junior staff who ends up bearing him beautiful twins. To him, the clandestine, is just what she wanted her for first, Sex. Reading this book, I wondered just what lengths we ladies go to get it easy. Also, how long does easy last? From my personal experience, it does not. I know hard work pays off. The good thing is that the step-by-step can be very painful and may take ages but one thing am sure of is that the position that comes with hard work may be taken away from you but the experience will a legacy. Drawbacks are only set back springs to leap into a bigger and better realm. This is only if you take time to analyze the short comings and learn from the mistakes.
Personally, as a woman, at times I get swallowed into the life of what the society will think of me. I tend to care more about what people will say about me. It even seems harder when you are not a very young girl and you think of what a potential suitor may think of you because you are pushing your dream. I remember a masseuse friend of mine we pursued a language course together two years back who stopped massage services partly because all the males she met thought she was a whore hiding behind professional masseuse services. What broke my heart was the time and financial resources she spent training to give the best massages. It was not proper but I keep on encouraging her to go for it. She was so good at what she did.
It is not so funny because over time, I have thought extraversion works. During in-house training on Balanced Score Card , one of the facilitators told us that in the current organizational set-up, it has almost become the norm that only 30% of your work, actually determines what rewards you will get; "politics" contributes a massive 70%. It boils down to;
Who do you know?
What favours can you offer the senior?
What do you hold against the top person that can bring him or her down?
What cards do you hold in the many games you play at work?
It is sad because most women think pity party and sex are the only cards they have to play. You cannot lift a camera and you want to be a news reporter? Yes I know you might tell me that that is what camera man does. But lady, style up. You will go to a war zone and watch a bullet pass through your Cameraman's skull. Does is mean you pack the bags and leave immediately or you get that scoop make yourself proud. As a woman, do you think sleeping 8 hours every night as the men burn the midnight oil to crack a code will make you super just because you pursued IT? Do you think as a mother when you take your girl shopping while the boy accompanies the dad to make business deals you are being fair to your daughter? Is it okay as a lady to constantly "proudly" claim how you hated Maths and sciences before your children and other people ( even employers) make it okay? Do failures of the stereotyped areas make you a great woman? Yes we don't have same abilities but it is high time women learn to maximize on their strengths. Boob and booty is good. Brains are much better. Six inch heels make you taller abilities, skill and experience makes a lady stand out.
It is okay if you happen to get into family business but what you bring to the table matters the most. When Margarita Louis-Dreyfus took over Louis Dreyfus Company after demise of her husband in 2009, most people expected her to keep the company on the growth trend with the same strings her husband pulled. However, there is only much one can do and deciding what is best and works for you is important. She is selling Marseille Football Club, just maybe, it is the best thing that will ever have happened to the Agriculture based trade big house .
Women, let us build us.

inside you get two full size nail polish which im gonna show you now!
Fiary Dust is a sheer white packed with a micro duochrome shimmer which shift from yellow, orange to magenta, this is such a beautiful color, you can wear it alone like my picture above i used about 4 coats for the full coverage, but i think it will look beautiful too if you layer it with other color!
Human Nature is a nude cream with a little bit hint of chocolate, this is a perfect nude for me it does make my hand look brighter! this was perfectly opaque in two coats, but the formula was a little bit thick but that's not a big problem for me.
so far im in love with this set, they over such a beautiful set of nail, specially the fairy dust! i think it was worth the price tag for this duo, they have a good formula and good color too.

Congressman John B. Larson (CT-01), Vice Chair of the Democratic Caucus, and Congressman Frank LoBiondo (NJ-2) along with dozens of other members of Congress stood in the shadow of the Capitol today to express bipartisan support for legislation that will reduce speculation in the energy markets and drive down gas prices. The leadership of the House of Representatives has committed to moving such legislation in the month of July.
"The concept of supply and demand is broken in our oil market," said Congressman Larson. "Oil prices keep skyrocketing to record levels while demand is flat or down. When everyone from the former head of trading at the Commodities Futures Trading Commission to the Secretary General of OPEC and executives from the big oil companies say that speculation is a major contributing factor to rising gas prices, it is obvious that we need to do something bold."
In 2000 there was $9 billion of investment in oil futures. Now, that number is up to $250 billion. This huge increase is fueling the rise in gas prices and making it difficult for average Americans to make ends meet. This type of artificial distortion of the markets threatens the very underpinnings of our market system.
"From our families to our businesses, everyone is feeling the financial strain from increasing fuel costs. When we see oil prices spike not because of the demand by consumers, but because of the mere speculation by energy traders, then every American should be outraged and Congress is required to act," said LoBiondo, an original cosponsor of the legislation.
The Consumer Oil Price Protection Act, H.R. 6264, would reduce speculation in the markets by requiring that anyone who is investing in energy futures on the "dark" markets be able to take receipt of that product. In other words, it would take speculators out of the unregulated markets and shed some light on their activities.
"Many economists have estimated that excessive speculation is adding between $20 and $50 to the price of a barrel of oil. We need to close loopholes and help reestablish oversight of the commodities markets to ensure that gas prices truly reflect the laws of supply and demand," said Congressman Baron Hill (IN-9).
Other estimates suggest that speculation contributes up to 70% of the cost of a barrel of oil. And, reducing speculation would have a huge impact on the price at the pump.
"Middle class families are suffering at the pump and I am pleased to join with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle in support of this important legislation," said Congresswoman Shea-Porter (NH-1). "I am hearing from families who literally cannot afford to drive their kids to the local ice cream shop-this is unacceptable. We must work together to get gas prices down."
Congress is committed to acting on this issue. There are plans to hold hearings in the relevant committees over the next few weeks and consider legislation during the month of July. Speaker Pelosi sent a letter to President George Bush calling on him to direct the CFTC to use its emergency powers to bring order to the energy markets. And, the House will bring up legislation today directing such action.
"Congress must rein in unscrupulous market speculators who artificially drive up the price of oil through fear. If no action is taken, what we are seeing now will pale in comparison to the overwhelming burden homeowners will feel this fall and winter when they purchase home heating fuel. Americans deserve immediate short-term price relief and want long-term solutions to our nation's energy policies. I applaud my Connecticut colleague, Vice-Chairman John Larson, for his leadership on this issue," said Congressman Joe Courtney (CT-02).
"The Consumer Price Protection Act will help curb the uncontrolled speculation in oil markets that is artificially increasing the price of oil. Market manipulation is unconscionable and is one of the problems we can combat swiftly," said Congressman Chris Smith (NJ- 4).
"Excessive speculation is driving up energy costs for American families and crippling our economy," said Congressman Bart Stupak (MI - 1), chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations and a leader on this issue. "I have been looking at energy speculation for three years and just Monday held a seven-and-a-half hour hearing on the topic. Congress has the facts. Now we must take up comprehensive legislation to close off the loopholes that are allowing speculators to manipulate the markets."
The dozens of members gathered today stand in support of legislation that puts the American consumer first and lowers gas prices for us all.

What is your most memorable birthday celebration ever?
If I had to describe mine, it may go along the lines of one of the following:
- Revolving doors. One entering, the other exiting.
- Yin and yang. Black and white.
- Two sides of a coin.
More concretely, a birthday spent attending a funeral – that of my paternal grandmother's, who passed away peacefully last month after a long, tenacious fight against cancer.
The contrasts and juxtapositions are, of course, jarring.
For a boisterous birthday party, substitute a sombre gathering. For birthdaysong-singing, substitute traditional Buddhist chants and prayers. For birthday hats, substitute white traditional costumes. And for candle-blowing, substitute bowing with incense-sticks clasped between hands.
But there were also close parallels despite the apparent polarities.
I was none too pleased when I first found out about the arrangements. Spending my nineteenth birthday at the funeral parlor was not exactly my idea of a celebration. Early in the morning, I had gone off for a celebratory 10-kilometer running race, then quickly dashed off for a bit of hurdling practice before rushing to catch the train to the funeral parlor. I was tempted to snarl and growl my way through it all, but the more I thought about it, the more I realised how both my birthday and my grandmother's funeral were both celebrations of life.
One, a celebration of a life to come. The other, a celebration of a life that was.
Two celebrations for one birthday? You bet. It's like having two double-chocolate fudge birthday cakes to myself.
A line of poetry comes to mind. I first came across these wondrously phrased words when reading Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse.
And all the lives we ever livedAnd all the lives to be,are full of trees and changing leaves.
– from Luriana Lurilee, by Charles Elton
Lives lived. Lives to be. Trees and changing leaves. Here, on my nineteenth birthday, was a reminder of transience and ephemerality. But more importantly, it was a celebration of not one, but two lives.

Financial Stability Oversight Council [F]
NAMIC OPPOSES designating property/casualty insurance companies as a Systemically Important Financial Institution (SIFI). Property/casualty insurance companies are adequately regulated at the state level for solvency and engage in conservative investment practices that ensure they are able to meet their responsibilities to their policyholders.
NAMIC President and CEO Charles M. Chamness outlines why the Volcker Rule regarding proprietary trading is ill-suited to property/casualty insurers, and why a bank-centric approach by the Federal Reserve Board would be inappropriate for insurance company connected savings and loan holding companies.

"Waiting On Wednesday"(WOW) is a weekly event, hosted by Jill from Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases eagerly anticipated. I hope to hear from you and your own WOW so that I can add some more books to my TBR shelf.
Carol Snow's first two books were Been There Done That and Getting Warmer. After reading both books on the recommendation from a good friend, I was a bona fide Carol Snow fan, eager for more of her novels to come out. It's with no great delay that she has published several others since, with her latest one coming out early this Fall. What Comes Next tackles yet another topic, high in the priorities of life for women, wife and mother hood. As I'm planning my wedding, this topic may be one more step ahead for me, but never too early to think about and what better place to begin to imagine things than through chick lit fiction!
What Came First by Carol Snow
First comes love, then comes marriage, then . . . things can get a little complicated.
Vanessa wants just one thing for her twenty-ninth birthday: an engagement ring from her longtime boyfriend, Eric. But when the ring turns out to be a mix CD and Eric turns out to be a guy who doesn't want to get married or have children, Vanessa considers a new path to having a family.
When Wendy and her husband, Darren, couldn't have children the old- fashioned way, a sperm donor seemed like the perfect solution. She never imagined she'd have out-of-control twins who'd drive her to cookie binges and scrapbooking while Darren escaped into the virtual world of computer games.
Single and career-driven, Laura didn't need a man to have a baby - at least not one that she ever met. Thanks to an anonymous donor, she shares her life with her adored eight-year-old son, Ian. She'll do anything for Ian - even fill their backyard with a bunch of noisy chickens. But the one thing Ian really wants is something Laura's never been able to give him: a sibling.
Now, to grant Ian's wish, Laura starts a search that will not only change her life but Vanessa's and Wendy's as well...

Kaseya CEO Fred Voccola has never been one to mince words, particularly when it comes to the products of competitors in the professional services administration (PSA) software space.
So it came as little surprise when – while discussing his company's new migration tool from Kaseya Connect Europe in Barcelona, this week – Voccola didn't exactly hold his tongue.
The MSP toolset maker's new PSA Migrator dramatically reduces the time required to move clients from one PSA to another, to about a week
"ConnectWise has misinformed the market that migrating among PSAs is a Herculean task," Voccola said. "It's just a structured database. It's not that hard. I've done it."
"What we've done is invested a lot of money on building our PSA…data, workflows and getting (MSPs) off of a first-gen legacy product like ConnectWise," he continued.
Despite additions to the feature set of its PSA – Kaseya BMS – Voccola said the software vendor remains committed to offering the inward-facing product at a low cost, so that MSPs can invest those savings toward other tools and activities that directly generate revenue.
Licenses for Kaseya BMS cost about one-third the subscription price of other popular PSAs, Voccola said.
"We have a customer here in Europe, they were paying €50,000 (euros) a year for (a competing product), and are paying about €4,000 for the Kaseya BMS," he said. "They're saving a lot of money – and we were able to migrate them in a week, so people can realize those savings."
The Barcelona conference, attended by a few hundred partners, also featured other significant product enhancements.
Kaseya rolled out Traverse 9.4, a robust update that adds automated provisioning to the hybrid cloud and data center monitoring tool. Traverse 9.4 automatically detects changes, then updates and provisions monitoring of new cloud infrastructure, network devices and applications.
"We go out; we find it…cloud environments, infrastructure, all the way down to the IoT," said Mike Puglia, Kaseya's chief product officer. "It brings back everything. It automatically provisions. It applies all our best-practice templates and starts monitoring."
"Automating that really cuts their expense," he said. "You can set it up so that when a user comes on board, it automatically provisions Office 365."
Ever-larger organizations are buckling under the weight of growing demand to manage increasingly sophisticated IT networks with IoT implications and complicated security requirements, Voccola said.
"They don't want to spend the money to keep up with it," he said. "So they're outsourcing these deals."
Those managed services engagements are still too small for the IBMs of the world to service directly, creating an opportunity for MSPs to land deals that might be larger than many are accustomed to, Voccola said.
"It allows them to build a managed service around network management and network services through Traverse, (and) extend out to hybrid cloud environments," he said.
Deals adding $30,000 to $40,000 in monthly recurring revenue are not unusual, Voccola said.
"Adding $30,000 a month for an MSP doing $3 million a year is (significant)," he said.
Also announced this week: AuthAnvil On-Demand, a multi-factor authentication software that protects virtually anything that uses RADIUS protocol.
"I can give you a single sign-on to your network, to your VPN," Puglia said. "It's just simpler, it delights the end user and it's more secure."
The sold out Kaseya Connect Europe was held Nov. 15-17.

On June 20, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices offered many bad reasons and one good reason why I shouldn't be allowed to get vaccinated against smallpox. To address the good reason, I propose "vaccination camp."
The good reason to prohibit voluntary vaccination is the danger posed when a newly vaccinated person transfers the vaccinia virus to unvaccinated people during the 14–21 days that the new vaccination is still scabbing over. This phenomenon, called hetero-inoculation, can cause some immunosuppressed and other people to become quite ill, without their consent. Nothing voluntary about it.
So how about wave after wave of three-week vaccination camps – a voluntary quarantine program staffed by previous waves of vaccinated and trained "first responders." President Bush asked us last fall to be Sept. 11 volunteers; here's one way we can do it.
At vaccination camp, you get vaccinated (after medical screening and informed consent – including, perhaps, informed consent by next-of-kin who might otherwise sue). And then while you're shedding virus and scabbing over, you get trained. CPR. EMT training. Radio dispatching. Intro to volunteer firefighting. How to help screen for smallpox and other threats. How to network with local health agencies. (Maybe throw in some camp songs, games, and physical fitness?)
Officials think it would alarm us if they allowed voluntary vaccination now. The CDC Web site says, "in the event of an outbreak, the CDC has clear guidelines to swiftly provide vaccine to people exposed to this disease."
State and local health agencies and hospitals aren't as reassuring: "When you see what you really need to do in case of attack, it's so dramatic … The average hospital in this country is totally ill-equipped," according to the president of The Medical Center at Princeton (as quoted in the Princeton Packet, May 24). And my town is adjacent to "anthrax ground zero."
Imagine trying to quickly quarantine a mobile, freedom-loving population, perhaps even before the diagnosis is confirmed, since doing so afterward might be too late. Will the government even try? How about the second time, after the first false alarm? Oh, I almost forgot: There have been several false alarms already, with no quarantine and no ring vaccinations. If one had proved real, would the cat have been out of the bag? The government's paternalistic reassurance scares me more than the vaccination's side effects.
Risk communication expert Peter Sandman, Ph.D., says: "The question of 'how safe is safe enough' is not a technical or medical question. It is a values question, answered for society as a whole by the political process and for the individual by that individual." The risk of a terrorist smallpox attack is unknown; there are no experts. The Advisory Committee's conclusion that the risk of vaccine side effects outweighs the risk of a smallpox attack is based on a precarious risk assessment. The magnitude of a smallpox attack might or might not be enormous; the probability is extraordinarily uncertain; and estimating this probability requires expertise the "experts" don't have.
With this much uncertainty, coercive reassurance won't work. "We recommend; you decide" is a more reassuring approach, because it transfers some control to us.
Oh, by the way, one of the bad reasons the government doesn't want to let me get voluntarily vaccinated is because of the approximately 1 in a million chance of fatal complications, and some other rather horrendous nonfatal side effects. But many legal voluntary activities are far more dangerous, and far less pro-social, than getting vaccinated:
- The National Safety Council reported 25 swimming deaths out of every million participants in 2000.
- The National Highway Transportation Safety Association reported 590 motorcycle fatalities for every million registered motorcycles in 1999.
- Supreme Court Justice Steven Breyer quotes a statistic that 10 out of every million high school football players died each year between 1970 and 1980. Some of them were below the age of informed consent.
I won't bother you with scuba, hang gliding, and parachuting numbers – one in a million starts to look good.
So I really want to go to vaccination camp. The civic benefits would reach way beyond just mitigating or reducing the risk of a smallpox attack. Quarantine me until I scab over, teach me some new skills, and then I'll pass them on. I want to be a Sept. 11 volunteer.
Jody Lanard is a physician in Princeton and contributed to the risk communication training her husband, Peter Sandman, did for the Centers for Disease Control during the anthrax attacks.

Many MMO aficionados cut their roleplaying teeth on one of the many pencil-and-paper titles that formed the early generation of multi-player gaming. In addition to rolling (and rolling, and rolling, and rolling) some dice to come up with their basic stats and traits, character generation involved a lot of "wet work" when it came time to acquire skills. Often, players would bargain with their Game Master to get special dispensation for pushing the envelope.
Player: I want to run this adventure as a zombie elf with three arms.
GM: Okay, but if you do that, none of the other characters will trust you. Also, you will spend 50% more on shirts and body armor. Still want to do it?
Thus, the mechanic of trading character flaws for enhanced abilities was born. One of the hallmarks of tabletop gaming is this trade-off -- saddling yourself or your character with a shortcoming in order to obtain an advantage elsewhere, either as a skill, or a talent, or just another way to go about Min/Maxing. The huge number of available options in some games (Vampire: The Masquerade, for instance) ensures that any player, with only a few minutes' consideration, will have an almost absolutely unique character, fully their own creation.
And yet, almost without exception, the online iterations we all enjoy seem to have omitted this altogether. We are an immense legion of perfectly-formed, mentally-stable, socially-adept übermensch. Even the so-called "ugly" races -- World of Warcraft's Forsaken or Tabula Rasa'sHybrids -- don't explore the depth and breadth of this concept too deeply. Racial traits and differentiation are the merest tip of this particular iceberg.
Why does this rich milieu, this fecund ground of roleplay fodder and character diversity, languish? (And who left this thesaurus on my desk?)

Often, players would bargain with their Game Master to get special dispensation for pushing the envelope.
Certainly, adding layers of nuance and complexity to the characters in the already staggeringly detailed virtual worlds we (or, rather, they) inhabit is no small undertaking. There is a whole constellation of development that this would entail. This can track everything from character art and animation to data to track the array and extent of the flaws and strengths for each individual. It's not an inconsequential amount of effort, to be certain, but is it really that much different than what's already being done? A few more data sets doesn't seem like a huge bar to entry; if there are any developers in the audience who can speak to this facet of character design and implementation, that would be marvelous.
At the same time, there has been a consistent call from players for more realism in the virtual environment -- whether that's merely a plea for more detail, or actual realism has been discussed elsewhere. What better way to proffer some variety than to allow characters to have more than merely trivial cosmetic differences? A world populated by the tall and the short. the corpulent and the emaciated, the crippled, the lame... you get the idea. Second Life's avatar system takes this a long way towards fruition, at least visually. Elsewhere? When everyone is the same height, you can't help but have the feeling you're someplace artificial.
Moving beyond mere eye candy, however, is the underlying mechanic that a flaws and rewards system offers. By providing greater customization of the characters we play, games allow us to feel more unique. There is pride in craftsmanship, even when it is imperfect by design. Character concepts can include overcoming adversity, or compensating for bad luck, and adapting to incorporate it into the whole.
In a completely different context, but apropos here, Adrian Bott put it thusly:
Give me a woman who's taken her knocks,
Who's tasted both gutter and stars.
Give me a lady with holes in her socks.
Give me a princess with scars.
Superman had Kryptonite. Professor Xavier was wheelchair-bound. Aquaman had "... but it's a dry heat." Why should our personal heroes and adventurers be any different? They are not perfect beings, nor should they remain so. Overcoming adversity makes victory all the more sweet.

Having the Conversation
The daughter was in turmoil. She called me about her mother, who was suffering from late-stage dementia. She and her two brothers could not agree on whether to put in a feeding tube, as it was becoming impossible to provide adequate nutrition. There had already been two episodes of aspiration pneumonia.
"My two brothers and I are in complete disagreement and I don't know what to do. I can't accept that we can let her die like that."
I asked her what she thought her mother would want under the circumstance.
"We never talked about such things. My brothers and I tried to bring up the topic and she told us it was not something she wanted to discuss. She was a very proud woman and always had a positive view of the world. Talk of illness and dying was just too morbid for her."
I asked: "In the absence of actual discussions, what do you think she would want, knowing what kind of person she was?"
The daughter replied: "She was a tenacious person and always a fighter."
I outlined some of the considerations she should bring to her and her siblings' decision-making process that might reflect their feelings about what mattered to her mother, and then left it for the daughter to discuss them with her siblings.
This discussion occurred a few days after a series of meetings I attended where some of the challenges in long-term care planning by elders with their children was one of the topics of the program. Over and over, those involved in one of the roundtable discussions where various eldercare specialists and planners were gathered came back to the concept of "having the conversation."
We all agreed that there was often an enormous reluctance for loved ones to broach the subject of future planning for living arrangements, financial planning preferences or wishes for end-of-life or serious life-imperiling situations. The question that kept coming up was why there was such a reluctance to explore one's wishes and values when late-stage illness such as dementia or malignant disease might occur.
Many reasons were given by those around the table, including superstition, discomfort in facing negative aspects of life, religious beliefs or one's personality and relationship with those with whom the discussion would have to be held for it to be meaningful.
Some years ago, there was large-scale impetus for people to develop living wills as a way of assuring their wishes would be honored should they no longer be able to make health-care decisions. For some, the process proved useful. For others, it became too complicated or threatening.
From various studies, many eldercare specialists concluded that the written document was not the most important part of the process. Rather it was the conversation that explored wishes and personal values that could form the basis of decisions that reflected what the person was likely to do if he or she could assist in the process.
The daughter called back a few weeks later and told me that she and her siblings had decided against the feeding tube and would allow their mother to receive supportive and palliative care with comfort measures only for her last weeks of life.
"I wish we'd had the conversation," she said. "But I believe this is what our mother would have wanted."
Try to have that important conversation with your loved ones so that decisions can be made during the last period of your life that reflect your wishes and values.

There are many products currently on the market that claim to provide preventative measures or cure life-altering diseases. It is a physicians duty to put to rest any speculations that these products actually work. Money saved on these useless products can be used for more beneficial purposes.
With an ever-increasing aging population in western countries, health care organizations and all the health care professionals involved in eldercare must become comfortable and knowledgeable with clinical, ethical and legal aspects of the decision to undertake artificial nutrition and hydration.

I dislocated my ankle while running on the stair case
Patient : Hi I dislocated my ankle while running on the stair case,really hurt at first,went to the hospital, xray showed a little dislocation which was aligned with a cast and after 2days the pain reduced significantly ...its been 8 days since then,I can walk on the cast without pain although limping because of the shape of the cast...but I don't know if the cast is what is making me not feel pain or if I have to remove the cast and start physiotherapy and little weight bearing? The emergency doctor told me to come back with cast after 6weeks but I feel it's too far because I feel fine now do you think I should get the cast off?
