Wood Tick Season is Back
In Central Nebraska it's never shocking to see wood ticks out this time of the year.
But due to wetter conditions and a higher volume of ticks, tick related illnesses can also be more common.
The Centers of Disease Control warns that even in the comforts or your own back yard, wood ticks can be found lurking.
"Well you always think of it when you're going into grassy or wooden areas, but it's one of the things you don't always think about when you're in town. You might just be going out in the yard with your dog, or gardening or something casual," says Marsha Carlson, a public health nurse at Two Rivers Public Health Department.
Performing daily tick checks on yourself, as well as pets is always recommended after being out in grassy areas.
Shacking out your worn cloths and removing ticks immediately are also important.
"What the CDC recommends is just taking and getting as close as you can to the injection site at where the tick is attached. And get close and pull it off. Even taking just a tiny bit of skin with it making sure. I always like to make sure the legs move after so I feel like I've got it all. And then you can always clean the site and maybe put some alcohol on the site," she goes on to say.
The Department of Health has already had two confirmed cases of Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever this season, due to wood ticks.
See a healthcare provider if you or someone you know is experiencing a prolonged high fever, headaches, chills or rash.

Glaramara: The Masterclass Sessions 2017
NOTE: Ruth's spinning class is now fully booked. We do however keep names on record in case of cancellations. Please contact the shop for more info about this.
In August 2017 the Glaramara Centre will once again be host to a week of Masterclass Sessions run by Ruth Gough (Spinning) and Sue Pearl (Felting). This residential course, aimed at those who already have a working knowledge of fibre crafts, will allow you to improve upon your existing skills as well as expand your repertoire into new and exciting methods, led by two excellent tutors.
Monday 28th August – Friday 1st September, 2017
Spinning: Basics and beyond. Ruth Gough will be exploring ways in which to advance your spinning methods and techniques, ensuring you have full control over your wheel. Superfine, thick, fancy, plant fibres, silk…. You'll be hands on with them all. Over the course there will also be guidance on how to how to record details of yours fibres and give direction on where to go next.
Day 1
*How Does My Wheel Work & What Does It Do? (Don't be afraid to twiddle your knobs!)
A detailed look at how spinning wheels works with particular attention to drive band and brake band tensions and gear ratios.
Emphasis on using this knowledge to spin super fine to thick yarns and how it can change a spun yarn from from a soft to a hard one.
Perfect plying.
Record keeping.
Day 2
*What Does it Mean?
Explanation of Woollen, Semi Woollen, Worsted and Semi Worsted Yarns.
Learn how the fibres are processed for these types of spinning.
Spin and ply each of the 4 types of yarns.
Day 3
* What Fun Can I Have?
Learn to spin long and short fibres to produce "Fancy" yarns.
Fibres used will include a selection from long fibre fleece, silk combed tops & hankies, noils (silk, cotton, ramie etc) carded cashmere, rainbow merinos – you are invited to bring any of your own long and short fibres you may want to work with or be given advice about.
Felting: 3D vessels and bowls. Sue Pearl is widely known in the world of feltmaking, and has been helping her students develop their skills for many years. On this course you will explore colours, textures, patterns and techniques, culminating in producing your final piece.
Felting will be focussing on designing and making fabulous and outstanding vases, bowls or bags using a three-dimensional resist method which adds extra resist sections to maximise fullness. To make sure that the desired shape is achieved you will be sampling using different qualities and types of wool fibre. In the relaxed atmosphere, you will be able to indulge your creative juices to produce pieces you will be proud of.
The effects on the surface form an integral part of the design and you can use pre-felts, embellishing by needle-felting and creating layered and cracked effects. Using negative spaces to create interest or coloured inlays with slashed surfaces can give a dramatic effect. Cut-out edges could be stitched, wrapped or even treated with fine wire.
The negative spaces could be used with a colour contrast to give a ceramic or 'raku' look and embellishing the edges with colour can give a focal point of real interest. Try out different products to stiffen your pieces to turn them into viable objects for display.
This is an experimental workshop but one hopefully that will produce some wonderful work.
Situated deep in the Borrowdale Valley the Glaramara Centre is the perfect venue to get away from it all. Surrounding by the towering mountains of the Lake District its easy to let the rest of the world slip away set you mind to some serious fibre-craft fun! Recently updated with simple and stylish décor, all rooms come equipped with complimentary hospitality tray which includes tea and coffee, toiletries and towels are also provided. And if you really need to keep in touch with the outside world there's WiFi throughout. But with a bar and log fire, you probably wont have much need for it.

The coffee and tea breaks are accompanied by homemade biscuits and cakes. Lunch is a buffet of soup, sandwiches and fruit.

The problem of Building a Compost Pile
We've had a compost problem…but we've found a compost solution. Our compost pile was started two years ago in a location that has now become the middle of a through-way in our garden area.
Our two wonderful dogs, our chickens, and the local magpies can't seem to resist the buffet. You'll see why we want a better setup when you look at this picture of our scrappy patchy system that temporarily protects the pile from dogs that dig at ground level and birds that land right on the pile.
The solution Building a Compost Pile
We decided to move the compost pile, fence it in with wood pallets, and cover it with a screened lid.
Why not share the fun Building a Compost Pile?
Just when we were getting our plans in gear, we started reading about Compost-Along. We decided to join the party, exchange experiences with other composters, and learn some new composting tips along the way.
Our existing compost system
A few years ago I attended a local compost fair and received two of the cool rigid plastic compost bins seen in the photos above. They're tall, adjustable, and well-ventilated. Normally they even stand up straight. I have composted in these bins for two years now. We put in all our kitchen and garden food waste that the chickens don't get, including coffee grounds/filters, paper scraps, onions, citrus, and raw potato peelings.
Once in a while we rake up stalks, rinds, and other leftovers from the chicken pen. We've added garden weeds that have not gone to seed, as well as various leaves and other vegetation we have. We planted redworms in the pile to speed up decomposition. Earthworms can also enter the pile from the dirt floor.
We avoid putting meat or animal manure in this pile, as we want it to create compost safe for all our food crops. We've never been sure how hot our pile gets and how many microorganisms might remain in the compost. So we either put the chicken coop litter directly on the garden in the fall or compost it in a different pile.
Composting along
Our Compost-Along project will be our kitchen/garden scrap compost pile. We got busy planting our garden and thoughts of composting were set aside for a time…so today we'll cover weeks 1 and 2.
Week 1 assignment
- Decide on a type of compost bin.
- Decide how to get compost ingredients.
- For extra credit, get a bin and start collecting compost materials.
Week 1 results
- We'll use our plastic bins enclosed by wood pallets, with potential to have two piles going at the same time.
- We'll continue to use our kitchen and garden scraps, and will collect more ingredients like leaves, sawdust, wood ashes, straw, and grass clippings around the farm.
- We also got some new ideas from the LHITS compost ingredients list: dryer lint and dog hair! At times we have an abundance of both around here.
- Extra credit: We already have the bin and some materials to compost.
Week 2 assignment
- Get or make a bin.
- Collect compost materials.
- For extra credit, gather up some natural compost activators, like alfalfa meal, blood or bone meal, cottonseed meal, fish emulsion, comfrey, stale dog food, seaweed, and urine.
Week 2 results
- We have an empty bin, though we haven't yet made the wood pallet frame.
- We have a few buckets containing kitchen scraps, yard clippings, wood ashes, dryer lint, and dog hair. Ready to roll when we hear "Ready, Set, Go!"
- I learned something new this week too: I didn't know about all those compost activators! I'll plant some comfrey this year and collect any dog food that might go stale.
- Extra credit: We have fish emulsion, which we use as a garden fertilizer. Should we just pour some in the compost pile?

Johannesburg - President Jacob Zuma wished Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu a long and healthy life on his 80th birthday on Friday."Archbishop Tutu has a special place in the hearts of our people for the manner in which he stood up against the apartheid state, speaking out against injustice and oppression," Zuma said in a statement"His campaign against sanctions added greater impetus to that of the liberation movement led by the African National Congress, and kept the spirit of resistance high inside the country."He said Tutu continued to play an important role in the country, and was admired by thousands of South Africans."As one of our four Nobel Peace Prize laureates, we respect him, love him and always welcome his counsel on issues. Happy Birthday Arch, ukhule njalo!"Tutu was born in 1931 in Klerksdorp, west of Johannesburg.He sharply attacked the ANC earlier in the week over the way the government had handled a visa application by Tibean spiritual leader the Dalai Lama."I am warning you like I warned the Nationalists that one day we will start praying for the defeat of the ANC government. You are disgraceful," he said.The Dalai Lama cancelled a planned trip to South Africa to attend Tutu's 80th birthday celebrations.At the time he was still awaiting a decision on his visa.His office said: "We are now convinced that for whatever reason or reasons, the South African government finds it inconvenient to issue a visa to... the Dalai Lama."
[As one of our four Nobel Peace Prize laureates, we respect him]
One word JZ- Hypocrite.
Shame on you.
"President Jacob Zuma wished Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu a long and healthy life on his 80th birthday on Friday."
To which Tutu responded "hamba wena uShowerhead, maaifoedie"
*dream* would have made for a lovely article
zuma is trying to kiss and make up. poor thing. Hope Tutu sends him to hell
Dear God, ....please save this country from the corrupt and incompetent ANC... .....Amen..
If he has a "special place in the government's heart", WHY, OH WHY DID YOU LET HIM DOWN BY NOT GRANTING HIS WISH FOR HIS FRIEND TO BE HERE?
YOU ARE A HYPOCRITE - (Read that in neon flashing lights spread over every bridge in South Africa)!!!!!
You speak with a forked tongue!!!
I'm sure the Arch is feeling all warm and fuzzy inside
Just had to share this really great laugh with regulars on News24
Have a fantastic weekend!!!
but still no comment from him on the visa story...what a tit...he has time to blame the Khoisan stuff on European colonists but no time to explain himself on this f up
apparently news 24 is the new area 51 and malema is their alien body.... everything will be erased and not spoken of.
Dave ... I think ... unfortunately .... he may be! He is a good hearted soft soul! Unfortunately.
@Matt :-) crazy jokes
Tutu, you got played by your own government!!
Are you till thinking about TAXING white more?
Anyway, happy B.day!
Ryan77, please look at the original transcript of what the Arch said. He did NOT propose a white-guilt-tax as made out in the media. He proposed a wealth tax and, given that the TRC proposed a one-off 1% tax on corporates that was REJECTED BY THABO MBEKI'S ANC, the situation may become somewhat clearer.
Ryan77, there's nothing wrong when one is criticised, as long as the criticism is fair and is based on the truth. Unfortunately and sadly, yours is neither fair nor truthful, it is simply an attempt at the denigration of the Archbishop.
Thanks for your comments.
But I do have 23 thumb ups, which means that there are people that
feel the same as I do.
Ryan77 - it means there are whites prejudiced as you
We can comment again! It's a miracle!
Happy Birthday, Tata!!!!!!
Zuma, you can't fix this crap by being superficially nice suddenly.
MojoBa .... once again ... unfortunately .... in the minds of the masses .... he can .... unfortunately.
To be fair to Mr Zuma, he has always differed with the Arch politically and morally. But in terms of respect, unlike President Mugabe, Mr Zuma has always responded to the Arch's disagreements with utmost respect and politeness. That, you have to give to President Zuma.
100% agree with Thozi - Jacb Zuma is a much better and kinder leader than Mugabe. He is not perfect, but many South Africans only realize in retrospect when they had a good thing.
Careful ARCH.Zuma`s greeting and good wishes has an ulterior motiff.You have been warned.Give South Africa a present on your birthday,announce that you have joined the opposition.In this way you will bring millions of voters with you and we then have a chance of defeating the evil ANC.Have a very happy birthday.
From your lips to God's ears Leonard!!!
What is your motiff leonard?
Doesn't this just fly in the face of Umkhonto We Sizwe veterans who yesterday announced they were praying for the Arch's swift departure.
Hypocrisy is a very lamentable character trait Jacob..
I have no doubt which prayers would go to the top of the inbox.
zoooomaaaaaa... guess what....... maaifoedies!
MegaMaaiFoefie ?
Happy Birthday Arch....
Best wishes TUTU - does this Jakklas Zuma really wish you with sincerity !!!
Amazing that this guy, who had the power to instruct Home Affairs to grant to Dalai Lama a visa at short notice, but by failing to do so has in essence spoilt Archbishop Tutu's celebrations, has the audacity to still wish him a Happy Birthday. JZ needs to realise that actions are much stronger than words.
In an interview with Karen Allen from the BBC yesterday Tutu admitted he was "very, very angry" but felt bad about his reactions in saying that he would pray for the defeat of the ANC Government and that the ANC party was "worse than the apartheid government".
The Archbishop Desmond Tutu showed genuine contrite over his behaviour and said:"I will count to 10 and take a deep breath".Ultimately if CHINA was the real reason behind the not issuing the Dalai Lama the visa then sentimentality and morality seems not to be the more important issue than trade and investment with China.Two way trade between CHINA and the whole of AFRICA currently stands at 110BILION USD a year and in the year 2000 it was only $10billion USD so you do the maths and figure out which of the two things takes precedence for South Africa's interest.South Africa is not the only country when it comes to controversy with the Dalai Lama's overseas travels.Two years ago,in 2009,President Barack Obama was the first US president in 20 years not to grant the Dalai Lama an audience at the White House.Obama eventually met him in July,but kept the visit at a very low key.The Dalai Lama only wants to visit Tutu and nothing more to it,yet China for some reason has always sought to curb the Dalai Lama's overseas travels,warning host nation governments that any visit would harm their bilateral ties with CHINA.Crazy but what can you do if you need Chinese investment!!!
And boycott Chinese made SA Rugby Jerseys.....
@ Marco: I could understand the govt. not choosing to receive the Dalai Lama as a STATE guest, the problem is that this was as a PRIVATE guest.
And re the trade figures - trade is not charity - China is getting something valuable out of this trade, and is not likely to shut it down and move it on a whim. India is a major part of the BRIC trade group and the Dalai Lama LIVES in India!?!
Yesterday someone who has had extensive dealings with China told me this: "you have to stand firm and stand up for yourself when dealing with China - if not, you lose honour and face."
The way this was handled was wrong in every possible way. But this is what happens when everyone is too arrogant to learn anything from anyone about anything.
So marco, what you are saying is that the Arch regrets calling a spade a spade?
But what you are also may be saying is that other countries do heed China's blackmail as well -but very few go as far as doing China's complete bidding. (And don't forget the US's enormous, precarious trade deficit, debt with China -no such thing for SA!)
BTW, there is a direct correlation between countries' trade with China, and their hosting of the Dalai Lama; it decreased about 10% (I seem to recall) -on average. But this only extended to the first year after this hosting -thereafter it was as per normal.
My humble opinion: for SA to be so weak-hearted and FULLY accede to China's blackmail, it has gained China's permanent contempt. And this will manifest itself in the future -guaranteed!
There were alternatives to non-issuing a visa. But the malfoedies decided to be China's whore.
should be: "China showed genuine CONTRITION"
Thanks Jo for pointing this out; I need to clarify: in the correlation I mentioned, only hosting by the State was considered as detrimental. The Dalai Lama travels all over the world, pretty much unhindered. China invoking trade-penalties for merely issuing a visa is unheard of!
If he has a special place in the government's heart, WHY, OH WHY DID YOU LET HIM DOWN BY NOT GRANTING HIS WISH FOR HIS FRIEND TO BE HERE?
YOU ARE A HYPOCRITE - (Read that in neon flashing lights spread over every bridge in South Africa)!!!!!
i don't believe that Tutu can get a nobel prize and Mandela has to share it with de klerk how insane is that?
@makati......Not that this is the forum to discuss this BUT you are an ignorant semi literate ingrate.If it was not for de Klerk we would have had a flucking bloodbath in this country.Is that what fools like you would have prefered.de Klerk was the real hero in this country,don`t forget this.AH
It's because Mandela and de Klerk did it TOGETHER. They're an example of true South Africans. I am proud of them both.
I guess, like most of SA's history, apparently you had to personally be there to understand it.
Unless you want to take the trouble to, I don't know, maybe go and read a clear account of the role each one played? Not the rewritten nonsense version you may have been fed by other people aged 25 years who don't know, but an actual factual account.
All the information that whites appear to know mysteriously is really available to anyone at their fingertips - Google, the library, your elders - plenty of information on why the Nobel Prize was split between them.
The Nobel Peace Prize 1993 was awarded jointly to Nelson Mandela and Frederik Willem de Klerk "for their work for the peaceful termination of the apartheid regime, and for laying the foundations for a new democratic South Africa"
To tell you the truth, in 1993 I had no support for Nelson Mandela. I actually hated him. But as he ruled as President he earned my respect and my support through his actions. He was a truly a great leader. A pity he is so silent today.
nspaynter, I echo your statement 100%!
...or you could have said that De Klerk had to share it with Mandela.
No, it does not work like that. It is not something like a bread that one man gets and another two must share.
If you recall( I am not sure how old you are) they got it for their peace effort. Seeing that it was still early days, without a track record on success, there was no ground to give it to only one off them, but the effort together made it rewarding enough.
That we call it technical drama.
Thank you JZ our president your message shows the spirit of Ubuntu,we can differ & become angry as much as we can but still we need each other.Our Grandfather Tutu belong to us,he is one of our icon we ever had,his views,and input cannot be ignored by anyone among ourselves.Like any South African he has the right to be angry,and express himself because of new dispensation brought by Anc.
Then why didn't JZ make that clear in his birthday wishes to the Arch? It was a perfect opportunity.
I agree with you, Amos.
What did President Zuma do wrong in this visa debacle? There is a department that deals with visa applications. They have said what the problem was with the application. What more do we want to see JZ do? Should he have handled that application himself? You seem to have a problem with the President, i thought Mr Tutu was the only one. Well done Mr President for showing these idiots that you are a human being with UBUNTU. You dont hold grudges.
You ARE thick, no?
He failed (as he does in all) to instruct Foreign Affairs to reverse the order not to issue the Dalai Lama. Said order came to FA, from the ANC executive in the first place.
(Another hopeless numbskull / Purveyor of Mafoedie Bulldung)
It's not as if the Dalai Lama is a foreign dignitary or diplomat on the same level as the Queen of England say.He is just a monk from Tibet,their spiritual leader and that's that.China however don't recognize the Lama's position or claims of what he says he is and therefore Zuma don't need to say or do anything more with this particular Lama.Zuma offcourse can still show the man the necessary courtesy and be respectful of him whilst he was in South Africa with Tutu and that's it,but there is no need for any of the proper etiquettes of "please to meet you" and "how do you do?" garbage that comes with special visits to South Africa.So to be fare to Zuma he handle this outrage from Tutu well enough to say the least.No rude behavior or displaying of any disrespect from Zuma unto thy Archbishop Desmond Tutu at all in what has to be a very,very awkward situation for the Government.
BW you are typical of those who conveniently separate the ANC and the state when it serves you, but when there is money to be made then the ANC and the state is always one unit. Suddenly FA follows no directives from the ANC? You can believe this rotgut.
Thank You!! people must stop to use their political differences in matters like this and face the facts
@ BlackWhite. It is simple!
He is the 1st citizen of this country and should have not allowed that other citizens/employees do not do their work and cause a incident for SA.
His method of keeping quiet and hope something will go away or dilute becomes worst than Mbeki's silence.
No, he did not do UBUNTU. He was doing his job because he knows not wishing such a prominent citizen well will cause a bigger problem.
By the way. The application was not handled by Home affairs. It was done by International affairs. They need half the info to react and can do approvals in less than a hour....if they want to. Read what the minister of Home Affairs said.
This was 100% a political incident that turned sour. The word "incompetency" to make hair split decisions came to mind.
Lets rather call it on it's name and hope a lesson was learned.
Zuma = ANC = Cowards = Moral Bankruptcy = Slave = Disgrace = Shame = Global Laughing Stock
Just have a look at the front page of this website everyday. What do you see? What is so different to a western country?
All you see is brutal murders
Raping of paramedics tryin to help someone else
Killing of elederly people
Government stealing money
Our leaders sing kill the boer
Someone gets axed
woman gets raped while in hospital because of cancer
Now ask me why am I angry inside? If there is going to be a spark I will be first to ignite. I cannot take this BS anymore. The we must educate and take them on as brothers, shame teach them our language and written books. Everything they learn is from us.
Looking at the big picture here man this country is completely f#$cked
Did he now?
'Bit like kicking a man in the nuts, and then wishing him well...
Tutu is a happy man today as he managed to get the attention he wanted when he said Apartheid Govt was better than the current Govt.
Mnumzane you must remove your welding goggles (they are not RayBans), and see that this man does not need the limelight, as he has his own light that shines far brighter than the candles that JZ and his cronies are lighting. Our country is in trouble precisely because the ANC has you completely fooled. If by some miracle we could resurrect Chris Hani, or even Steve Biko, they would most likely want to return to their graves, as the current bunch of looters that are governing us is more than sickening. Also with our puterate education system we will see a whole crop of semi-literates in the future, with no ability to reason clearly and logically. Just like you.
JZ wishing TU TU a happy birthday!
How cynical is that?
Well said Mr president,no hard feelings, Nothing to apologies. Happy 80th birth day Arch Tutu, We love you.
Brian, you fell for the bait!
His name is called Gedleyhlekisa,, you know what does that mean?
No, but I'm sure that you are more than willing to tell us. Shikata ga nai. Wakarimasu ka?
Yes, "The President of South Africa" - what else?
The Arch should officially and publically join the DA to help his country.
Zuma is a true leader. I hope Tutu has made peace with himself. As man of GOD he must not bear grudges but rather forgive.
Leaders have backbones and a sense of direction.
"As a man of GOD he must not bear grudges but rather forgive".
Rather like Jesus in the Temple with the moneylenders did?
malvenrb -jy is sowaar mal.
How the f*ck can you call this spineless, corrupt non-entity, destroyer of this beautiful country, "a true leader"? He does not know the meaning of the verb "to lead".
Why is he great, because he needs to do some lame PR exercise and congratulate a man who wished his maifoedies to oblivion only days ago?
But if Tutu won't bear a grudge for long, millions of us do -we curse Zuma and his maifoedies for wrecking SA.
We pray hard for the downfall of the maifoedies!
Lol what a publicity stunt... Politicians, never take them seriously!!!
Noted and Thanks Mr President , now please reopen the hotline so that The Arch can call you directly and not have to warn you via the media . "heeey , heeey wena I am warning you .. you are a disgrace"
Zuma must be recalled
I can't recall JZ doing any good.
OK, here's our cunning plan, guys....
We delay as long as we can. If we don't do anything then the public can say all they want but we can argue that it takes time to process the visa. If the Dalai Lama cancels, we are safe. If he doesn't, we stall him until he can't come. Brilliant! Either way, we still wish the Arch a happy birthday. What a plan! We are good. We are great. We are the ANC!
As a South African, I feel that ANC has betrayed the very constitution it created...one that so many of our parents died for. We arrived at this awkward position because of the inability to govern properly and develop the rich human resources at our disposal. So now we are in the position of a weak and dependent economy, one that must prostitute itself to other stronger countries and lose our autonomy. No amount of ANC rhetoric can convince me that this is otherwise. The plain fact is that they put themselves in the position of the weak and must now be dictated by a country who's own regime was like the Apartheid one. The principals have been lost. Fifteen years without service delivery. Every year I pray for a turnaround, for a return to their senses...no, these are good people, our brothers...they deserve another chance. But how many chances must we give? How many chances do we allow a thief to steal from us, before we say enough is enough? Must we wait another 15 years? When will we reach the threshold? Did we die for principles that are now meaningless except for nice speeches? When promises are the same year after year and the lack of improvement in life is the same year to year, we are going to reach our grave with a life of excuses. Maybe it's time for real change.
@david mlaba.....You sir are a man of vision and insight.Your name tells me you are a proud black man and this to me is of great importance.Thank G-D more people of your ilk are standing up and voiceing their displeasure and opinions on the melt down in our country.I salute you.

Having played a show at Oslo earlier this April that was sold out two months in advance, London quartet ISLAND continue their steady and momentous ascent with new song Come With Me. It forms the second part of their blistering new double A-side single alongside the recently released Spotless Mind.
Come With Me is a testament to their unswerving ability to write what feels right. The liquid pentatonic licks that introduce the song are steely and full of blues while the relatable subject matter and immersive ambience make it something that speaks to everyone. It's just another reason to keep a close eye on its makers.
The culmination of a year's work is now starting to pay serious dividends. ISLAND stand way above the herd because they were never consciously trying to stand there in the first place. They're just doing what they do – writing and playing great songs.
Spotless Mind/Come With Me will be released as an AA on Beatnik Creative on the 17th of June.

AI & Breeding Management Courses
Invested in your future.
To request/register for the EastGen Reproductive Management Course please contact Karen Flewelling at 1-888-821-2150 or email: email@example.com
EastGen offers A.I./Breeding Management Courses designed to help cattlemen understand and manage reproduction in their herd. Courses are made available throughout the year in different locales. EastGen employs experienced EastGen staff and Veterinarians (who are known to be reproductive specialists) to moderate a diverse and intense agenda of reproductive management subjects.
This course will upgrade and improve your knowledge on such items as:
You will learn practical, easy-to-apply methods and tips that will allow you to be more proactive with your herds breeding challenges.
On Farm A.I. Training
In addition, anyone wishing to breed their own cattle can learn to do A.I. with instruction and practice provided on your farm. Two sessions of training with up to 10 hours of instruction are included. You supply the cows for training, with a minimum of 3 animals per person. EastGen allows a maximum of 5 people per on-farm training course.
Here's what one producer said about the course:
"I found out that little things like heat detection and a little extra grain make a world of difference when breeding time comes around. Because of the course, I estimate my conception rate has increased 15% compared to the previous year. Fred Knapp was a great asset for the on-farm follow-up. I would recommend the course to anybody." - Paul Ferguson, Frankville, ON

Malaysian Automotive Association still optimistic about the local vehicle sales market, with November showing slight increase compared with October.
PETALING JAYA: Vehicle sales have declined by as much as 13% this year overall with November continuing the downward trend compared with the same period last year.
This was reported by the Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA) in its monthly report on vehicle sales, covering both passenger cars as well as commercial vehicles.
"Sales in November 2016 dropped 12.5% from 56,068 units in November 2015 to 49,085 units last month. Overall vehicle sales in 2016 up to November, had fallen by 13.7% compared with last year for the same period," the MAA said in a statement released yesterday.
For passenger cars alone, MAA said sales had dropped by 11.7% to 43,550 units in November 2016 from 49,324 units in November 2015. Commercial vehicle sales declined 17.9% to 5,535 units from 6,744 units.
MAA was however, optimistic about the local vehicle sales market, stating there had been a slight increase from the month before.
"Sales volume for November 2016 was 2.5% higher than October 2016, on new model launches and attractive offers and discounts by car companies," MAA said.
For the period January to November 2016, total vehicle sales fell 13.7% to 515,293 units from 597,306 units for the same period a year ago.
From this number, new passenger car sales dropped 13.8% to 456,943 units from 530,173 units a year ago, while commercial vehicle sales fell by 13.1% to 58,350 units from 67,133 units.
Auto makers had also reduced their production levels this year between January and November, with 497,428 vehicles rolling of the assembly line compared with 569,374 units for the same period last year.
This also contrasts with the numbers for November this year alone, where production had increased by 14.3% to 57,369 vehicles produced compared with 50,203 units for the same month last year.
According to MAA, this could be attributed to an anticipated boost to year-end sales this month and in January with festive promotions until the Chinese New Year and the possibility of consumers buying forward in anticipation of car prices increasing in 2017.

Parenting Costs: My €750,000 kids!
Katie Gunn on the hefty price tag attached to having children in the modern world
Had my husband known the figures he would never have agreed to one, let alone three. I mean, who in their right mind would choose to hand over €240,000 so that they could spend the next 21 years acting as servant to an autocratic and unreasonable master?
As it turns out, however, we have unwittingly signed ourselves up to a whopping €720,000 payout for the trade-off of having three little dictators to look after. For life.
With back-to-school costs burning holes in our poor worn-out pockets, the figures produced by the annual report of UK insurer LV= are downright depressing.
The report revealed that parents are typically shelling out £10,000 a year to feed, clothe and educate each new member of their family, and with Ireland's cost of living still soaring above the UK's, it makes me wonder why on earth we bother.
With a seven-year-old, five-year-old and two-year-old all living under our roof, our own total annual expenditure therefore supposedly amounts to about €34,500.
To make us feel better about handing over our hard-earned pennies, perhaps we should take a look at what we actually get for our money:
Years 0-2
We are allowed to choose what we dress our little bundles of joy in. We get to coo over how gorgeous our little girl looks in her new Baby Gap stripey dress; that is, before she spills milk all over it and sits in the mashed banana.
We also get to push that expensive pram up and down streets for hours trying to get her to stop crying and go to sleep. We get to buy a plush car seat so that we can drive up and down streets for hours trying to get her to stop crying and go to sleep.
Then there's the purchase of the cot, changing unit, baby bath and toys that take over every corner of our previously uncluttered home until you decide the only answer is to buy a new, larger home.
You may even get to pay out the price of an additional mortgage on childcare.
Oh and let's not forget all those lovely nappies that if added together would fill a small continent. Feeling better yet?
Years 3-10
We are now told by our children what they will and won't wear and when to buy it.
For girls, think of My Little Pony crossed with Beyoncé. For boys, think Messi football shirts (obviously only the authentic ones will do) and €100 trainers which they will leave on the local green because their feet were too hot after that game of football.
We also now get to start buying school books, making lunches that end up mashed into newly purchased uniforms and become the taxi driver for trips to costly after- school classes.
Birthday parties turn from inviting the neighbour's son to affairs where whole classes ask when the entertainment will be arriving. And of course the toys keep coming. This is when we turn from loving mothers into shouting machines.
Years 10 - 19
Yes, that's right -- I do think the teenage years start early. Peer pressure and pester power mean that constant upgrade of gadgets and clothes are required.
Remember -- this is your duty, they didn't ask to be born, did they? And you might as well hand over that remote control -- you no longer have any right to it. (By the way -- if you are my niece or nephew and are reading this, please don't be offended.)
Years 19-21
Be warned I use the number 21 here loosely. Please insert any number that you wish to. As a 38-year-old who still takes handouts from her mother I am speaking from experience here. These are the years of college fees, driving lessons, rent and house deposits and there is no end date in sight. Scary.
So with a recession in full swing, can we really be spending this much? And if so, how? And, indeed, why?
The 'How' is easy enough to answer -- Childcare and education remain the biggest expenditure, which, according to the LV= report, costs parents £67,430 (€77,320) and £55,660 (€63,800) respectively over a childhood. Often there is no choice but to come up with these funds by cutting down on other costs.
Which brings us to the 'Why?'
Frivolous as it may be, it has to be said that much of the rest is 'nice to haves'.
Helen Taylor from Dublin admits that she understands just how easy it is to feel the need to keep spending on young children.
"When I was pregnant first time around I felt I had to have the best of everything so I ended up spending a fortune on all the products you are told you 'must have'. Most of them were hardly even used".
She goes on to say: "You would think that I would have learned my lesson but for my next two children I found myself shelling out even more money for a better pram and brand new clothes because I felt that as my eldest had been spoilt it would be unfair not to do the same for the others." Helen says that she learned her lesson eventually but not before a huge amount of unnecessary purchases.
Debbie O'Neill in Wicklow agrees that it is all too easy to buy more than needed when kids are involved "Everything is just so cute," she says, "I walk into a clothes shop and walk straight past the adult section and into the children's department. I frequently end up buying €30 worth of clothes for my daughter Emily, when I would stop before spending the same amount on myself."
So should we just sit back and let this happen? Personally, I don't think so. Perhaps it's time to start thinking not what you can do for your darlings, but what your darlings can do for you.
I have decided that my little lot are going to have to start to work for that very expensive roof over their heads. Cleaner -- who needs one? Small people are surprisingly good at dusting under and behind heavy furniture. Car washing, leaf collecting and sock sorting are also now on the agenda. And I must say those piggy banks are getting mighty heavy after this year's birthdays.
Of course these are just the early years -- I'm sure there are plenty of other jobs they can be trained up for if we put our minds to it. And anyway -- is seven years old really too young to start babysitting? Because I'm quite sure a night out would help the husband to come to terms with it all.

My maid of honor is, as I type, graduating from college. I couldn't be there for a couple of reasons (and unfortunately they were practical enough that even I couldn't talk myself around them), but I figured that this was the perfect moment to not only talk about the benefits of having a great MOH, but to explain why my maid of honor is, hands down, the best.
And so, without further ado, consider this an ode of sorts to my maid of honor and bff.
It's kind of interesting, I think, to try and figure out how exactly to go about planning a wedding these days. Traditional "lines" seem to have been erased (or, at the very least, smudged considerably) in a lot of areas: brides and grooms are, just as often as not, paying for their own nuptials and planning them together, the ceremony itself is just as likely to take place on a mountainside or sandy beach as it is in a church, and cookie-cutter wedding parties (matching dresses, hair, nails, shoes, jewelry, etc., etc.) are a must-have of the past.
But there is one thing that, in my opinion, will always be an important part of the proceedings: a girl wants to have her best friend there along the way. And (insert side note here), although I would be the first to say that I am marrying my best friend, there's just something about the girl who stands by your side and helps you pick out shoes that you're probably not going to find in your football-watching soul-mate (I am sincerely envious of those of you who have found this to be otherwise) and which is, no matter the circumstance, often crucial to one's emotional stability.
And so, in light of that (difficult and stress-inducing and maybe sometimes necessarily sugar-coated) role, dearest MOH, thank you.
Thank you for calling to check in on me when we're several states apart. Thank you for giving your opinion on invitation fonts and shoes, for being relentlessly thrilled about the fact that I'm getting married, for being supportive when I'm really not sure about the dress and being the first to suggest that we go find at least one more to try on (and saying that the only thing you don't like about it when I do find the right one is that it's now off the market and you won't be able to wear it when you get married) and for tugging on bridesmaid dress after bridesmaid dress (the photos don't even begin to encompass it all) and being excited about them all.
And, most of all, thank you for loving me enough to remind me that this is my day and that, in the end, I need to decide exactly what I want it to be—not what I think everyone else wants it to be.
Congratulations, graduate. And thank you, bff.

by J. R. Ward
Part of the Black Dagger Brotherhood Series series
In the shadows of the night in Caldwell, New York, there's a deadly war raging between vampires and their slayers. And there exists a secret band of brothers like no other - six vampire warriors, defenders of their race.
Of these, Zsadist is the most terrifying member of the Black Dagger Brotherhood.
A former blood slave, the vampire Zsadist still bears the scars from a past filled with suffering and humiliation.
Renowned for his unquenchable fury and sinister deeds, he is a savage feared by humans and vampires alike.
Anger is his only companion, and terror is his only passion - until he rescues a beautiful aristocrat from the evil Lessening Society.
Bella is instantly entranced by the seething power Zsadist possesses.
But even as their desire for one another begins to overtake them both, Zsadist's thirst for vengeance against Bella's tormentors drives him to the brink of madness.
Now, Bella must help her lover overcome the wounds of his tortured past, and find a future with her.

Review by Lauren2013
3 Stars
A former blood slave who suffered ceaseless sexual abuse at the hands of his mistress, Zsadist has developed an intense aversion to women and sex until the day he meets Bella. Able to see beyond his external scars to the wounded warrior beneath, Bella refuses to accept Zsadist's attempts to rebuff her and is determined to make him see that he is worthy of love. Can this mismatched pair overcome all the odds?
Bella and Zsadist's story is the definite highlight of this book. Their relationship is intense, passionate and heart-wrenching. Bella is a truly lovely character, and as tortured heroes go, Zsadist is up there with the best. Nevertheless, even though his experiences as a slave are painful and distressing to read about, something about the writing and descriptions did not completely resonate with me. I am usually the first to break out the Kleenex with this type of character but in this case my packet remained unopened. For a seriously good cry, I recommend Dance with the Devil by Sherrilyn Kenyon. Zarek's book requires at least two Kleenex packets.
After discussing the issue with some friends in another forum (you know who you are), I've come to the conclusion that my problem with this series stems from the fact that I am a plot rather than a character driven reader. The BDB characters are well-developed and engaging but that simply does not compensate for the lackluster plot, the mediocre dialogue and the ridiculous villains.
I found myself skipping over large portions of the book, which is not the way that I want to read. I gave myself until this book to decide whether or not to continue with the series and have decided that it just isn't for me.
Review by katie1802
This is probably the best book in the series so far. I haven't read the rest but I can guess it's the best book in the series. How do I know this? Because Zsadist. Fucking Zsadist. Man, I love that dude, in all his messed up, tortured glory. Bella is also adorable.

I liked how Zsadist slowly opened up and eventually found himself to be deserving of love. The epilogue also made me squee from pure joy.

I haven't gotten around to reading book four or the rest, I'm not even sure I will. I think I only read to book three to get Zsadists story, I was that intrigued by him from the very start.

Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Hey guys. Crysis here with a short guide to AP Sion. I generally don't like making short guides (:P) but this one will be short, because I am in a rush to release it. I am in a rush because I know that AP Sion will probably be just another memory (R.I.P. AP Master Yi) so I just want to share this little knowledge I have with him before it is too late.
AP Sion got me out of bronze, hope you can cooperate with him and achieve this too.
Typical 21-0-9 masteries. I prefer 9 in utility over defense because it allows me to get to summnoer spell CDR which is extremely important on Sion.
Marks: I prefer hybrid pen instead of magic pen, because you are still a melee champion and the armor pen combines well with your Enrage.
Seals: Armor because you are still melee and can take harass.
Glyphs: Scaling magic resist, improves defense as game goes on.
Quints: Flat AP for early skill damage.
Summoner Spells
Use only
Flash is essential for the AP Sion playstyle. You have no mobility so it is really important and it helps escape, chase, stun, kill, make teh plays blah blah blah...
Ignite gives more kill potential in lane (which is something that AP Sion lacks). Also reduces healing which is a counter to AP Sion and it generally adds to your burst.
Passive: This is a sign that Sion is here since Season 1. Totally inconsistent and unreliable, helps only occasionally vs harassment. I mean wait a ****ing minute, Aatrox passive is essentially 2600 gold, RITO this is the only thing that you really have to replace.
Q: A huge burst stun, for killing, catching off guard, engaging, disengaging, peeling. Don't use this to harass in lane. Save it for when you are almost sure you can score a kill, or for when you get a gank (either ally or enemy).
W: This ability's name should be "AP SION". This is your main skill! Much burst, wave-clearing potential and it is still a shield to save your ***. Combine with other super huge shields to ensure you will burst someone (ex. Janna, Lulu, Shen)
E: Not completely useless on AP Sion, you are still melee meaning that some dps comes from your autos. Your auto damage combined with ArPen runes is quite strong early game. Also the fact that you can kill waves fast as a maniac, gives you a ton of free HP.
R: Possibly the worst ability on Sion and not only because you are AP. It can help to get another Lich Bane proc and complete objectives (baron, dragon, towers) or simply sustain... Other than that nothing impressive.
Skill order
Yep W by 9
Q by 10
This gives as much burst as possible, plus defense and farm potential
E by 15. At this point you can wave clear instantly which means a ****load of bonus HP from it.
R last, because it is only needed for certain objectives.
If the enemy mid laner is melee you can take a point in E at level 4 for extra trade power.
Open with: Doran's Ring + 2x Health Potion + Warding Totem
Typical start that gives hp, dps and mana regen.
Early on: 2x Doran's Ring + Boots of Mobility:
More hp and survivability, plus dps and mobility for better roaming.
First item: Rabadon's Deathcap more dps and defense (from shield)
"Situational": If doing extremely well and not gonna die, buy Mejai's Soulstealer. After this you are going to snowball, like an iceball
Second item: Lich Bane or Deathfire Grasp:
If you can get in melee range, then go for Lich Bane, it is essentially a 3rd spell and helps kill towers. Also gives more mobility.
If they can run away fast or can kite you (generally hard to get in melee range) go for DFG.
3rd Item: Void Staff
At this point you are going to be one shooting squishies, so they are going to get MR for protection. Then you take this and your damage goes through the roof.
4th Item: Lich Bane or Deathfire Grasp
Just build the one that you didn't build second.
5th Item: If you are leaking gold like crazy then go for Zhonya's Hourglass. I would recommend building it vs heavy ad teams, which would be easy since you will have bought Seeker's Armguard early on. Zhonya's gives as much AP as possible which means more dps and defense. Also the active can save your life.
If you don't build zhonya's build one of the listed in the cheat sheet, depending on the situation you are facing.
Early game you wanna just max out shield and stun. Use shield to harass, block harass and push. The fact that it can kill a lot of minions instantly, combined with Doran's Ring makes the mana cost almost inexistent. Don't use your Q for poke. Use it only if you are sure you will score a kill. Save it for times of need aka friendly/enemy gank.
At around 8 minutes where you will probably have 2x Doran's Ring+ Boots of Mobility, take blue buff and shove your lane extremely hard. Then go roam and help your bot/top win. If you succeed to kill both heroes of enemy bot, go for dragon.
As you see AP Sion is perfect to teach you the basics of mid laning.
Build your Hat and then depending on the enemy line-up build next item which is either Lich Bane or Deathfire Grasp.
Congrats you are in mid game.
Mid game Sion, (with a good preparation from early game) is a beast. Grab a point on Enrage at level 11 and toggle it up. Clear massive waves with your W and get a **** load of bonus HP. Shove lanes really hard (that means guide your ally minions to enemy tower) and then get the hell out of there and go do this on another laner. I just explained you how to split push with Sion. If you are really fed, people will come for you. You are not Jax you can't go 1v5 so be sure there are wards to see them coming. Remember to follow your team on objectives such as dragons or barons. The skirmishes and fights that happen there, will give you 1-5 kills.
After acing remember to push as hard as you can and destroy buildings with Enrage and Lich Bane procs. This way you will close out the game, meaning you will shorten it. It is important to end a game asap with Sion since he doesn't do much late game.
Late Game is hard for ya. Yes you can search for roaming squishies and exterminate them but this will usually result in your death too, which means no APC for your team... You can Sionprize people by opening shield, DFG them, stun, Lich Bane, pop shield. This will usually do bajillions of dmg. Even if you can't land full combo, the stun on an off-guard target will usually end up as an easy kill for your team. It is like the infamous LCS Elise stun plays. However don't be a front line person. Even if your shield is huge, it can be bursted ( Jayce, Le Blanc) which will make you uselss or dead.
When to play Sion
Sion is an assassinesque ap mid, so we like squishy stuff. Also we like to face heroes (in lane) like Katarina, Zed and Akali.
Don't play Sion if the enemy team has kiters. Sion hates that. Situation even worse now that DFG doesn't slow. Of course don't play Sion if enemy team is 5 tanks and a Graves.
If your team has Shen, Lulu, Janna, Orianna or any other huge shield champion, you should consider picking AP Sion. Shields stacks and merge and are considered as one.
AP sion, a roamer, assassin, pub-stomper, early/mid game beast. Really good in low division Yolo Q. Play him before he is taken away like AP Master Yi.

I can at least point you in the direction of implementing one yourself.
There does indeed exist a 'react-countdown-timer' component, however it might be worth implementing yourself or altering their code in order to make the timer appear like above. To do so, I would use a combination of timer-mixins in addition to a circular view with text inside. Next, I would keep track of the state of the timer using the timer-mixins in addition to the setState function. For each interval, I would update the time remaining of the timer and then update the button component that you have created to reflect whatever time is left.

I heard recently that if the bread is good, the food will be good. I was a little skeptical, but fresh off a semi-successful foodie jaunt to Europe (Spain, France and Italy), I have to say this is true. 9 out of 10 times, if the bread was good, the food followed suit.
Have you experienced the same?

It's important to seek a doctor's diagnosis as soon as possible. There are treatable conditions that can mimic Alzheimer's symptoms, and other possible reasons for symptoms must be investigated thoroughly to determine the true cause.
In addition, treatments currently available for Alzheimer's – while limited in their effectiveness and in the number of people they help – have the best chance of working when begun early in the disease. Prompt diagnosis also enables people and families to take immediate action to prepare for worsening symptoms and make appropriate plans for the future.
Alzheimer's Diagnosis Truths
There is currently no single test that accurately diagnoses Alzheimer's disease, so doctors use a variety of assessments and laboratory measurements to make a diagnosis. (For more on this, please see "What types of tests will the doctor do?") Doctors focus on ruling out all other possible causes of symptoms, which might include reactions to medications, other illnesses or psychological issues such as grief. A diagnosis is said to be either possible (not all other causes can be ruled out) or probable (all other causes have been ruled out). A definitive diagnosis of Alzheimer's is possible only by examining brain tissue after death.
In specialized research and diagnostic facilities, such as the Alzheimer's disease centers supported by the National Institute on Aging, Alzheimer's can be diagnosed with 80 percent to 90 percent accuracy.
Click here to learn more about scientific research aimed at improving the diagnosis of Alzheimer's.
Alzheimer's Diagnosis Tests
Diagnosing Alzheimer's will likely involve several types of evaluations and may take more than one day. Evaluations commonly performed include:
Medical history: an interview or questionnaire to identify past medical problems, difficulties in daily activities and prescription drug use, among other things. The doctor may wish to speak to a close family member to supplement information.
Physical examination: which should include evaluations of hearing and sight, as well as blood pressure and pulse readings.
Standard laboratory tests: might include blood and urine tests designed to help eliminate other possible conditions. These will measure things like blood count, thyroid and liver function, and levels of glucose and other blood-based indicators of illness. A depression screening should also be conducted. In some cases, a small sample of spinal fluid may be collected for testing.
Neuropsychological testing: Doctors use a variety of tools to assess memory, problem-solving, attention, vision-motor coordination and abstract thinking, such as performing simple calculations in your head. The goal is to better characterize the types of cognitive symptoms present, which might provide clues to the underlying cause.
Brain-imaging scan: A "structural" brain scan such as CT or MRI is recommended to rule out brain tumors or blood clots in the brain as the reason for symptoms. Many scientists are trying to determine if other brain-imaging techniques might be able to identify telltale signs of early Alzheimer's reliably enough to be used as diagnostic tools.
Alzheimer's Diagnosis Specialists
Most people usually turn first to their primary physician. Going to a doctor you know, or who knows you or your affected loved one, can ease anxiety. In some cases, it may be prudent to request to be referred to a specialist in Alzheimer's diagnosis, which might be a neurologist, a geriatric psychiatrist or another type of doctor.

Improving outcomes with evidence-based guidelines at the point-of-care
For providers transitioning to value-based care models, one of the keys to successfully controlling costs and improving outcomes is eliminating unnecessary clinical variations in care. These inconsistencies not only have the potential to prolong common health problems and delay a patient's return to health, but they can also have a negative impact on the bottom line.
When patients take longer to heal and require excessive tests and treatments, it drives up costs and reduces potential revenue for accountable care organizations (ACOs) and other providers that bear financial risk. To support these organizations and help patients return to health faster, evidence-based, clinical guidelines presented at the point-of-care can help ensure the consistent application of effective treatments and expected recovery times across entire populations.
When these clinical guidelines are integrated into electronic health record (EHR) systems and made part of the clinical workflow, providers can access valuable decision support in a way that is both efficient and does not disrupt the patient encounter. Once implemented across an entire organization, the result is a more effective utilization of healthcare services, better outcomes and improved financial performance under value-based payment models.
Adhering to evidence-based protocols
Unnecessary variations in care is one of the major contributors to the estimated $992 billion of healthcare spending that is wasted every year.1 Overtreatment, a common result when organizations lack standard evidence-based protocols, adds between $158 billion and $226 billion in wasteful spending.2 All of this excess care directly impacts provider reimbursement under value-based payment models. While unnecessary variations in care are almost never intentionally wasteful, many clinicians lack reliable, evidence-based tools at the point-of-care to help support and document their treatment decisions.
To help providers better adhere to established, clinical guidelines, numerous resources can be integrated directly into the EHR to offer additional decision support. Among these tools are physiological duration tables that help physicians offer reliable estimates to patients about how their activity will be impacted during an illness or injury. These tables are informed by millions of observed cases collected from a variety of credible sources and give patients clear expectations on recovery times.
Physicians can also, with greater certainty, offer a range of activity recommendations for patients during their injury or illness to ensure recovery is safe and rapid. Predictive modeling capabilities can further help physicians to offer individualized estimations of how long it will take patients to fully resume active living based on factors like age and comorbid conditions. This approach also offers an opportunity for additional chronic condition management education for the patient, which is essential to reducing costs in a value-based environment. Then, as patients near the window for estimated recovery times, providers can determine if patients are progressing as planned or if proactive interventions are needed in order to keep recovery times on track.
Enabling continuous improvement
When organizations take a more consistent approach to care recommendations, they can also better track and measure clinical and financial performance – a key requirement for continuous quality improvement across the enterprise. At the medical code or diagnosis group level, organizations can evaluate how long it takes their patients to return to health. Those figures can be benchmarked against an average or "normative" dataset of millions of cases. Comparisons can also be made against the physiological ideal or "optimum" duration of inactivity.
This analysis is often eye opening for many healthcare providers. Some organizations are pleasantly surprised to learn they are saving millions of dollars in medical costs because their patients' illness durations are much shorter than the normative benchmark, or even the optimum duration timeline. For employers, a decrease in illness duration equates to additional savings in wages, benefits and lost productivity.
Equally important, these analytics offer insight into the specific conditions where care may have strayed from standardized treatment protocols, giving healthcare administrators clear targets for improvement initiatives going forward.
Getting back to active living
By supporting physicians with evidence-based tools at the point-of-care, healthcare organizations can help eliminate potentially costly variations in care and more promptly return individuals back to active living. Consistently following evidence-based treatment guidelines results in decreased utilization and better outcomes. These results can then be shared with employers or payers to demonstrate both the organization's clinical quality and its commitment to cost-effective care.
The bottom line? When individuals are able to return to healthy living, everyone benefits — not only the patient, their family and the community, but also hospitals, providers, payers and employers.

More than two months after the Elbow River overflowed with surging waters that devastated communities, city workers have begun clearing the waterway in earnest.
Crews are working 12 hours a day, seven days a week removing wood and other debris swept up by the June flood.
The workers haven't been able to get started until now because they had to wait for river levels to recede before officials could survey the debris and seek permits to remove it, said Andy Hughes, a senior municipal engineer.
But they are under pressure to finish by mid-September to make way for fish to spawn undisturbed, Hughes said.
"We have to allow fish to lay their eggs and give their eggs a fair chance to survive through the winter," he said, adding crews could work beyond the deadline, but they'd have to mitigate their impact on wildlife.
City officials are waiting for additional permits before crews start clearing high-priority areas along the Bow River, including a Dumpster by the 14th Street bridge and some wooded debris near the 10th Street bridge, Hughes said.
Cleanup along the Bow is not expected to be finished until next year, according to city hall.
Hughes declined to disclose city hall's estimate for the river cleanup because the price tag could change, depending on what crews find. But he said the work would cost "several hundred thousands of dollars," which the city hopes the province will reimburse under its disaster relief program.
Clad in hip waders or rubber boots, life-jackets, hard hats and gloves, workers have found some odd items so far, including a vehicle's front bumper, an old water tank and a portable power generator.
Late Friday morning and early afternoon, crews were busy removing large pieces of wood from the river behind the Talisman Centre in Erlton.
Standing on the banks of the river, Hughes said when the flood was at its height the water would have been nearly over his head. Now, it's low, the bottom clearly visible from the banks.
Walkers and joggers who frequent riverside paths will find some sections will be closed to give crews room to work. Three pedestrian bridges over the Elbow, which were destroyed by the flood, have been cleared by city crews.
The bridges will eventually be rebuilt based on public consultations, which are expected to start Sept. 17 at Christ Church, 3602 8th St. S.W., from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.
In the meantime, pedestrians will need to find different routes.
"I just have to get back across the river somehow, so I'm going to take the long way, a new way and see how it goes," said Christine Conkin, who had stopped by what was once the pedestrian bridge off Sifton Boulevard S.W.
Months after the big flood, city hall has not banned boating on the rivers, but officials have urged Calgarians to be cautious and wear life-jackets.

7 Health Benefits of Papaya Leaf Juice
The consumption of papaya leaves can significantly improve your overall health. Various studies have proven that the phytonutrients in these leaves have powerful antioxidant properties that can strengthen your immune system and improve your blood circulation.
Health Benefits of Papaya Leaf Juice
The active components of papaya, papain and chymopapain, are effective in enhancing your digestion of proteins, as well as in treating many digestive problems, such as indigestion and bloating.
Also, the papaya leaves contain alkaloid compounds, named carpaine, dehydrocarpaine, and pseudocarpaine, which have chemopreventive effects.
Due to their potent antibacterial, analgesic, and antispasmodic properties, the papaya leaves can successfully treat numerous health ailments.
One of the best ways to get the benefits of these leaves is to juice them. Here are 7 health benefits of papaya leaf juice.
Prevents Diseases
The papaya leaf juice is rich in acetogenin, a compound which can protect you against malaria, dengue fever, and cancer. This compound has an ability to improve your immune system and to prevent an occurrence of viruses and bacteria in your body.
Improves Your Liver Health
The papaya leaf juice can be used for treating various liver diseases, including liver cirrhosis, jaundice, as well as liver cancer.
Relieves Inflammation
Inflammation is most commonly caused by allergies and diseases. Due to its strong anti-inflammatory properties, the papaya leaf juice can help you to relieve any inflammation and to prevent an occurrence of any further problems.
Reduces Your Blood Sugar Levels
The papaya leaf juice is extremely helpful in improving your insulin sensitivity and regulating your blood sugar levels.
The antioxidants contained in this juice can decrease oxidative stress, and they can reduce the secondary complications caused by diabetes, such as kidney damage and fatty liver.
Improves Your Digestive System
The papaya leaves are a great source of papain, chymopapain, amylase, and protease. These enzymes have an ability to improve your digestion since they can rapidly break down protein and carbohydrates.
The papaya leaf juice is highly beneficial for reducing stomach inflammation, healing peptic ulcers, and eliminating bacteria, such as H. Pylori. This juice is also effective in relieving colon inflammation caused by IBD.
Protects Your Heart Health
The papaya leaf juice contains powerful antioxidants that can help you to enhance your immunity, dilate your vessels, and protect your cardiovascular system.
Increases Your Energy Levels
A daily consumption of papaya leaf juice will significantly boost your levels of energy. This juice is highly recommended for treating chronic fatigue.

Here are a few excerpts from this wonderful book:
Page 44: Forms gently arise in the special space between the two hands as they converse and organically work together to discover new possibilities. There is no need to pound, slap, or roll modeling material noisily and aggressively on a table. Reverence and respect for materials are an important part of the educational process. Table tops are not necessary in creating flat surfaces. The hands and fingers love to make surfaces.
Page 42: Proper handling and reverently passing out precious materials sets the artistic mood of a lesson. Then beeswax squares can be offered on a special plate or in a basket as if they were delicious cookies. Clay can be cut in slabs with a thin wire stretched between two stick handles and placed carefully on boards.Many pieces can be modeled in the air and in the space created by the two hands in front of the sternum and heart region. Elbows should form comfortable angles to the ribs. The arms form four sides of a pentagon emerging from the trunk side, reflecting the fiveness of the hand's geometry. This position is important because the children should be using their entire upper body, shoulders, and upper arms as well as their hands.
Learning about the World through Modeling
Sculptural Ideas for School and Home
by Arthur Auer
Out of stock
An unbelievably rich resource for first grade through high school: highly recommended!
This was the first book sold by Christopherus that we did not write and publish. When we came to write the 2nd Grade Syllabus, we decided that this book was so good that it had to be an integral part of The Christopherus Curriculum from 1st grade on! So we are making it available through the Christopherus website both for those purchasing the full curriculum as well as anyone else interested in a book which will take you to the heart of Waldorf education - its healing potential.
Modeling is one of the most important ways you can help your child not only deepen his relationship to the material you are working with, but will also help your child learn how to learn.
The book has been written so that , regardless of their background, can follow its step-by-step progression. Accompanying the warm and friendly text are many illustrations of methods as well as results.
Please note: this volume is a component of the Christopherus 1st Grade Curriculum Package and is used in the first main lesson block but also stands completely on its own for those not using the full curriculum.

Obviously things get harder now and I am going to oppose one of those three in the last 16. Carla Suarez Navarro has been going along pretty well but Yulia Putintseva is in the form of her life. Andrea Petkovic and Karin Knapp may both have played poorly but the Kazakh has dispatched them ruthlessly and she has to be a play here.
Venus Williams has never won the French and, while she is unlikely to this year at the age of 35, I think she is a decent price to beat Timea Bacsinszky. The Swiss is a clever player in good form but even she struggles against hard hitters on their game.
Kristina Mladenovic gave us a bit of a run for her money against Serena Williams. At 5-2 up in the second set tiebreak, I thought we had a sniff but Williams proved again she has guts to match her talent. Her next opponent, Elina Svitolina, has been receiving assistance from Justine Henin but I do not think she has the power to trouble the world number one. I am not getting involved at the prices but it is hard to see anything derailing the Serena Express now.
Rafael Nadal's withdrawal has given us a great chance of landing our Dominic Thiem second quarter bet. Assuming the Austrian beats Marcel Granollers, which I would expect him to do, he will face either David Goffin or Ernests Gulbis. I believe Goffin is a future world number one but his game can desert him at times and he faces a fresh opponent who is very capable on his day. At the prices, the Latvian is a play.
I feel like I am going to spend most of this tournament trying to get Kei Nishikori beat. Given his two wins over Richard Gasquet on clay this season, both in straight sets, this might seem foolhardy but I think the Frenchman can cause an upset. He is definitely playing well at Roland Garros where it usually takes a very fine player to beat him. Also, Gasquet is fresh while Nishikori is coming off a five-setter and has suffered physical issues in Slams before. I think 2-1 is a big price.
