Little Miss O: PJs, raincoat, 2 x tights, 2 x long-sleeved tshirts, culottes, trainers and dressing gown (not pictured undies and woolly slipper socks). Little Miss O ended up wearing her boots all week, so the trainers were not necessary and the raincoat was a bit redundant seeing as she had a water-proof-ish coat.
Me: Trainers, black jeans, grey jumper, 1 x bra, 3 x undies, 3 x socks (some of which worn on the train), two black singlets and pyjamas (thermal singlet and woolly slipper socks not pictured). I wore all of these except the singlets - I stuck to long-sleeved thermals, thanks very much!
We also had toiletries and our day packs with "necessities"
Little Miss O packed relatively light. We ended up being too busy and thus too tired at night to do much reading or playing checkers....
I carried a lot more stuff - most of which we actually used. Watercolours did not get a look in again - nor did the book but that was mainly because I found a Johnny Cash biography that I really wanted to read. We were a bit slack on the KeepCup use, I am ashamed to admit, but the ecobags got a workout. We did a lot less room picnicking this time, which meant lots of yummy restaurant meals, but it also meant much more budget blow out, and we didn't use our plates, cutlery etc. much. Might turn that around a bit next time....Having hotel picnics can save a bit on holiday spending, and it gives us an excuse to eat in bed. Nice.

Carmen Dell'Orefice
Seventy-seven and still going! Model Carmen Dell'Orefice made her debut Vogue appearance at the age of 15 and has been knockin' 'em dead ever since. Ms. Dell'Orefice joined Liane Hansen from our New York studio to discuss the fashion industry and how it's faring during the recession. With a long life in the fashion world that's still progressing, she offers a unique view from a model who's seen and worked with a full spectrum of economies, styles and designers. Born in 1931 during the Great Depression, and coming from a time when modeling wasn't exactly considered a career, Ms. Dell'Orefice's original goal was to become a ballerina. Ending up with rheaumatic fever for a year was just enough to completely end her ability to practice. Then one day after she had recovered, she was discovered on the 57th St. crosstown bus- and so began her true career as a model! Below is a more recent photo of Ms. Dell'Orefice taken by Fadil Berisha. Mr. Berisha is a good friend of Ms. Dell'Orefice and has photographed her on multiple occasions, most recently for the national ad campaign for Taryn Rose shoes and for Rolex ads worldwide.

Water and What It Knows is a collection of personal essays that explore the link between natural history and memory, place and identity, how stories are written into the landscape and how humans learn to read them. The collection explores places three major bioregions (Minnesota, Washington State, and the Great Plains) and the essays examine one of three major questions: (1) How are stories written into the physical landscape? (2) How do we learn to read them and what are the consequences if we do not learn? (3) Is there such a thing as a land-based mythology and what role does that play in our identities? The collection as a whole aims towards establishing an ethic of place: every place I've lived has asked me to find the value and the specific in where I am, to find the local knowledge of how to live in that place, what makes that place unlike any other place. What does it mean to live in this place, on this particular day?
If you'd like to check out some of my work, here are a few links: "Deadwood," which won the O. Martin Lewis Award from Weber: The Contemporary West; and if you have access to Project Muse, you can check out my essay "Petrography," which appeared in River Teeth. Both are included in Water and What It Knows.
In Process: I'm in the process of revising my (former) dissertation, Galway(s), a collection of essays about the spectacular city of Galway, Ireland.
If you fold a map of Ireland in half from top to bottom, you'll find Dublin on the east end of the fold and on the west end you'll find Galway. The city of Galway, the capital of the West of Ireland, is a city of contradictions and eccentricities: it is exotic, it is familiar, it is both very old and very new. Galway(s) is a collection of personal essays that explores this city, each essay grounded in a specific place in Galway that allows me to investigate the ideas and associations those places stir up. The portrayal of Galway is flavored by my choice to travel alone, a naturally limited view that offers a certain reading to the place given my gender, race, class, and my American passport. If the purpose of travel is to engage as many boundaries as possible (cultural, societal, geographical, artistic), then the female point of view on travel and travel writing brings forward a distinctly unique perspective.
In Planning: Summer 2014 was a five-week solo Scamping trip to Nova Scotia to research and write Acadie: A Family Ecology.
Acadie is, at its heart, about searching for untold stories. My father's family does not tell any stories, from their childhoods to where their families came from. Nothing. And so, as the family historian, a position I have held since the age of seventeen, I have needed to go elsewhere for the stories I'm looking for. But along the line, it's become apparent that humans are wired to tell stories. Mostly, it's a survival tactic as much as it is for entertainment. So if stories aren't being told, it has to be a learned behavior. So I've gone looking for my paternal grandfather's family. When I started, years ago, all I knew was that my great-grandfather was French-Acadian (not to be confused with French-Canadians) and my great-grandmother was Irish. I started to speculate about painful history and the unwillingness to constantly be reminded of terrible times, The Great Upheaval for the Acadians in 1755, when the British forced tens of thousands of Acadians out of Acadia (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick); and the Great Famine for the Irish.
The search for stories is focused around the ideas of movement and migration. I travel up to Maine and Nova Scotia to search out the Babines and trace their movement from Nova Scotia to Kennebunk, Maine, where they ended up. And then my great-grandparents picked up their roots and moved from Worcester, Massachusetts to Long Beach, California, where my grandfather and his twin brother were born in 1924. But even as this is forefront in the exploration, another layer of movement is happening: camping. My immediate family camped every summer for the majority of my childhood and I bought myself a camper in 2008 for the sole purpose of camping alone. Camping is full of stories—both making and telling.

"The Brass Knuckle Effect" – Improving Your Odds In A Streetfight
What Would You Do If This Happened To You?
Imagine being on the threshold of a serious, life-and-death streetfight, mugging or sexual assault.
You've been confronted by a big, ugly, piece-of-dung who has singled you out as his next conquest.
Talking your way out of this is getting you nowhere. You're going to have to fight for your life or endure of a severe beating (or worse).
Like any sane person, your reaction is predictable.
Your sympathetic nervous system, (fight or flight response) kicks into high gear. Your breathing and heart rate quicken, your gut feels queasy, your knees start knocking and you can barely hide the fact that you're shaking like a leaf. You know that these symptoms are normal in situations like this, but that doesn't make you feel any better.
You thought you were fit and well-trained from your self-defense workouts but now you're not so sure. In the face of battle, you feel flustered and full of self-doubt. Your mental dialogue kicks in and you start berating yourself for not having trained harder… "I'm not ready for this!"
You're mind is reeling as it searches for the best tool to pull out of your bag of tricks to get yourself out of this mess.
Enter The Brass Knuckles
In the midst of this ordeal, a trusted friend discretely slides up beside you and transfers something into your dominant hand. What is it? Brass knuckles!
Immediately you breathe a sigh of relief… the chaos just got simpler and more manageable… All you have to do is smash those brass knuckles into vulnerable parts of your adversary's anatomy, over and over until he either gives up or crumples to the floor.
Fear gives way to clarity. Now you know exactly what you're going to do and how you're going to do it. It doesn't matter if he wants to stand and swing, grapple and clinch or try to take you to the ground because now you have a "secret weapon."
The probability of you not only surviving but "winning" the altercation has IMMEDIATELY changed in your favour. Even if those knuckles turned out the be "cardboard," your chances of success just went up. I call that "The Brass Knuckle Effect."
So what am I saying? Am I suggesting that you arm yourself with a shiny set of knuckle-dusters?
Nope… What I'm suggesting is that you take the point of this "mental exercise" and apply it to your self-defense training.
The Brass Knuckle Effect improves your combative performance by developing a reliable, "multi-purpose" fighting technique that can be trained to a high level, in a short period of time and used effectively in a wide range of combative situations with confidence and effectiveness.
The Brass Knuckle Effect Is Based On Four Principles
The Brass Knuckle Effect is built upon four tried-and-proven principles of critical incident performance:
1. Hicks Law – the more techniques you have to choose from, the longer it will take to select one and execute it.
2. The Inverted U Hypothesis – Under stress your ability to perform fine and complex skills deteriorates. Gross motor skills, which are simple, large-muscle movements become more effective under stress.
3. The Locus Of Control – It's not what happens in life that creates stress but our reaction to it. Your perception of control over the outcome of an event dictates the degree of anxiety or confidence you experience.
4. The Law of Specialization – By focusing your training on a limited skill set, you can improve that particular skill faster than if you distributed that same amount of effort amongst several different skills
The Benefits Of The Brass Knuckle Effect
Simplified Thought Process – Under intense stress, your sympathetic nervous system becomes dominant, your ability to think logically or creatively is impaired. Your neo cortex suffers a "meltdown" while the limbic system or "lizard brain" takes over. The good news is that this part of the brain is also the source of emotion and trained skills. Relying on your Brass Knuckle Technique simplifies the chaos and confusion associated to a critical event.
Reduced Stress Response – A simplified game plan with a high probability of success strengthens your "locus of control" over the situation… This decreases your fear and stress symptoms while increasing your confidence.
Faster Reaction Time – By limiting yourself to a single "Brass Knuckle Technique," you reduce your response options and decrease the amount of time that it takes you to act.
Increase Your Proficiency – If you build your training around the development of your "Brass Knuckle Technique," you'll bring it toward the point of mastery… or at least to where it's pretty damn good. If you want to stop an attacker, this is the your best bet to make that happen.
Selecting Your Brass Knuckle Technique
Let IT pick YOU – Don't arbitrarily pick a technique off the top of your head. Think about an appropriate technique that feels natural to you. If you spar, what strike do you land most consistently? When striking a heavy bag or focus pads, what strike lands with the most authority and impact?
It Should Be a Gross Motor Skill – When the "excrement hits the oscillator," you're going to be under stress. Is the technique you select dirt-simple and based on large-muscle movement?
Applicable In All Three Ranges Of Combat: Can your Brass Knuckle Technique be applied effectively at all three ranges of combat: free-standing, grappling and on the ground?
(I wrote a previous post about stress and technique selection. You can read it here.)
Training Your Brass Knuckle Technique
Make Your BKT The Centre Of Your Workout – When working on your striking skills, build drills and combinations around your BKT. Learn ways to set it up, ways to follow it up and how to deliver it in a rapid-fire blitz.
Vary Your Training – Master the intricacies and bio mechanics of the technique. Incorporate it into as many drills as you can think of. Hit the heavy bag with it, build it into focus pad and Thai pad drills, work it into boxing glove drills with a partner. Perfect practice makes perfect.
Use Partner Training To Develop Multi-Purpose Application – Being slow and analytical, have a training partner "attack you," one technique at a time. Your goal is to defend against the attack and counter with your BKT, no matter what he throws at you.
Condition and Strengthen The Muscles and Movement Patterns Associated With The technique – Seek out exercises that will contribute to the power of the strike. Use body weight exercises, weights, kettlebells, bungee cords etc.
Here's a video clip by Wim Demeere to give you an idea of how you can condition and fine-tune the straight punch: (Check out his blog at http://www.wimsblog.com/)
A Final And Important Note:
I'm not suggesting that you limit the entirety of your training around one technique to the exclusion of all others. That would get boring pretty quick.
If you're a martial artist, you're going to want to develop a complete and well-balanced skill set. You also want to keep your training fresh and interesting.
If you're training for self-defense, you always want a back up plan so practicing a variety of skills is a good idea. Who knows, you may be injured and have to resort to another technique to keep yourself in the fight.
I suggest dedicating a portion of your workouts to your BKT so you can have it in your back pocket and ready to go should you need it. A ten to fifteen minute block should be plenty.
Also keep in mind that you're not "stuck" with a single specialty technique indefinitely… Once you're comfortable with the development of your chosen specialty technique (or you get bored), switch to a different one and repeat the process.
The silver lining to this approach is that "mastering" a specific technique, and understanding it on a deep and meaningful level, will enhance your performance and rapid development in other techniques as well.
What is YOUR Brass Knuckle Technique?
If you don't have one yet, what's your best guess as to what it might be?

CodePlexProject Hosting for Open Source Software
if by chance the creators of Foxcharts were getting bored, not knowing what more to implement, I add a new item on wishlist.
In case of .ColorType = 0, chart colors are based on internal color list. It would be great if user had choice of several different predefined color lists or even possibility to define a new one. Sure, I know that I can set colors through Fields(i).Color,
but it would be far better if whole color scheme could be changed by setting one property, like Chart.ColorScheme = "bussiness", Chart.ColorScheme = "psychedelic" or so :-). In this way, the colors would be far less hardcoded, enabling
for example quick and easy color changing when user (or boss :-) ) changes mind.
Hey Kaven,
LOL, I'm already working on it :-D
FoxCharts will have other 20 enumerated color types for the property "ColorType". Each value will apply a different color pallette.
At the moment, each color palette will bring 8 predefined colors according to a specific "theme"
Is this what you are looking for ?
Great, that's exactly what I wanted. I don't have any special wish for a palette, it's just that the colors in ColorType = 0 are too wild to be used in serious application - especially that yellow-red contrast catches the eye.
Looking forward to next version! (how many times have you read this? :-) )
Just released version 1.17 of FoxCharts.
Many new possibilities have been added, and new samples, small tweaks and fixes.
Line charts allow using images for the caps, customized shapes, etc.
Some color pallettes were introduced as well - now the property "ColorType" can accept values from 0 to 27, each of them providing different color options.
0 = Basic colors
1 = Custom colors
2 = Random Colors
3 = Gradient Colors
4 - 27 = Predefined palette colors.
The best way to test this and other features is to download the latest release and polay with the form "ChartsSample_Builder", that provides ways to customize 95% of the properties available, and generate many kinds of charts.
For the color palettes, on ChartsSample_builder, select the Colors Tab, and select the 5th option in the "Color Type" option button group, and then just change the values from the spinner.
This is still unfinished, and I would like to have your feedback on this, maybe providing some name suggestions for the palettes, and even offering some color pallette color combinations.
In fact, I was going to work this evening, but I could not resist playing with colors instead :-)
I'm none of a design specialist, so I can't propose any new color combinations. In fact, I would say that those 23 color palettes are more than enough. But it would be good if user had possibility to define a custom palette. I can imagine situation when
I create 20 different charts in application using a predefined palette and then boss tells me "I don't like the color of a second bar, please change it to something different", which means setting custom colors in Fields(n).Color of each chart. If
I could make a custom palette, it would be far easier (something like setting one or two properties of each graph). I don't know ho you store your predefined palletes, but custom palette could be anything - a cursor, numeric array, even string of RGB values
separated by commas - what fits best your needs.
At least I can offer you names for some color combinations (making them out was the greatest fun of this evening :-) )
4-office bright
7-bussiness bright
21-basic bright
25-nature bright
27-same as 4 :-)
I was also thinking about msgraphs in Excel. Their charts are far worse than what one can do with Focharts, but they could be set up very quickly. It's just a few clicks, you select one of predefined graphs, select data, and you have it done. Maybe there
could be something like that in focharts. I imagine it like a method, say "Predef(nPredefChart)", that would set up all chart properties according to predefined schema nPredefChart. User then would just fill .ChartsCount and .Fields properties and
chart would be set up. I am really not sure if this feature would be usefull, but maybe there are people who have data in VFP tables and need to visualize without much effort? In any case this is one of few features that Excel has and focharts don't.
Hi, all.
My way is using "charts.dbf' with ID and few memo fields.
I save charts properties in memo field "graph" for each chart with unique ID.
Calling Charts form I use parameter to identify "ID"
In form's Init first I use
and read charts properties from memo field to adjust chart.
After changing some properties user can save them. Code looks like
REPLACE Graph WITH THISFORM.FoxCharts1.GetChartProperties(3) IN Charts
It's all easy if you try.
Kaven's "names for some color combinations " seems to me as great idea.

Dog Hair Dryers – a Special Grooming Tool for Your Pet
Keeping a well maintained dog not only attracts everyone's attention but even makes you feel happy when someone asks you regarding your dog's grooming. It might not be possible for every dog lover to take their pet to salons for a perfect groomed look. So you can opt for dog hair dryers which come at a much affordable cost. The stand type of these dryers available in market has an elongated arm which positions the dryer just beside the grooming table making it easier for you to access all around the dog.
All you need is to simply cover the grooming table with a soft cushioned towel making sure that your pet will be comfortable during the grooming process. As your dog may behave arrogantly to the noise of the dryer hence turning the dryer away from the dog will help it to slowly accustom with the motor noise. Set the dryer at low heat setting or better without heat initially. Start the heating gradually with the grooming process if you feel necessary..
If you are using the high heat mode you need to pay special attention and care while grooming. You need to stay with your pet for the entire time till you are using this mode. Moving the dog hair dryers nozzle all around the dog's fur and skin can yield better results. You can determine how long you can keep the nozzle in one particular place on your dog simply by placing your hand beneath the dryer so that your dog does not feels uncomfortable.
Special attention and care must be exercised when using these grooming dryers especially near the soft areas of the dog including eyes, ears and nose. The air flow will dry and is liable to cause irritation in these areas..

Dear Sara: I started dating someone in the beginning of November. Everything was going great, [until] he called to tell me he heard from an ex. [He said it] messed with his head, that possibly down the line we could open back up communication again. I have been continually hurt by men, and I started dating him because he was the opposite of what I normally go for and he made me laugh.

Friends Want to Help You Find Love? Ask Them to Do This.
Harvard Business School might not seem like a likely place to find dating advice, but a recently published working paper has good insights for anyone wishing to perform well under pressure.
The study, which I learned about from the Science of Us blog, shows that people who receive positive feedback before undertaking a stressful task were calmer, more creative, and made a better impression than those who did not.No comments yet
'Why Are My Married Friends So Smug?'
Dear Sara: What goes on psychologically that causes people to brag about their relationships and then chastise single friends for wanting the same thing? I've read studies before saying that happiness actually causes selfishness, and that if you're down, it's best not to talk to a friend who's very happy with their life because they're too far removed to be sympathetic.
I was talking to a girlfriend the other night who just got married and was going on about how happy she is, and how she feels like her life has finally started (at 27). She knows I'm older, have been single and have had my heart broken over and over for a very long time. But her attitude towards me: Well, God would never give you more than you can bear. WT-?!

'What If I DON'T Have a Rockin' Career or Tons of Friends?
Dear Sara: I read an article you wrote [about being single for a very long time] last year while house-sitting a married friend's cats–as only a single girl can do! Then I ordered your book. I have read EVERY SINGLE book on the market on "What was wrong with me?" Well no more! Your book made me realize for the first time in my life that I am fine as I am.
I was just wondering though–what about those of us unmarried girls who DON'T have a career as such or tons of great girlfriends? I related to everything you said, except when you talked about your career (which sounds so good!) and you have ALL those nice friends to have dinner with AND they listen to you! The few friends I have, I DO NOT share anything about 'my situation' with because they just pity me (or plainly just don't care). So that's a whole other level of failure for me to think about! No man AND no career or many friends! Have you heard from many of 'these' girls? —C2 comments

Dear R: When I turned 35, I had been unattached for four years, and that birthday hit me really hard. I had spent age 34 in a state of panic, thinking I just had to meet someone before this looming deadline. (more…)13 comments
You're More than Your Checklist
I frequently hear from readers who are confused about why they're single, and their letters very often include a detailed list of their attributes. They typically go something like this: "I have a great job, lots of friends, work out regularly, am active in my church and frankly look pretty darn good for my age."

The thinking man's monster show. Ericb The one thing don't like about The Outer Limits was that they always spoiled the monster reveals with those teasers at the beginnings. I'm sure the network brass forced them to do it because they thought no one would watch unless they knew absolutely and positively that there would be a monster in the episode. But, really, the mystery of what the monster looks like is half the appeal of a monster movie. Ken Begg Yeah. You know, I was never able to get past the 'new' Outer Limits taking that name. The original Outer Limits had its moments of darkness, plenty of them. But it was basically an optimistic show; Man would progress, and whatever was out there offered up good that outweighed the dangers. The new Outer Limits, however, was pessimistic a series as I ever saw. At least half the episodes ended with the characters, and often the entire world, hopelessly boned. I guess you could say one was true to the '60s, and the other to the '90s, but that never sat well with me. Like the TriStar 'Godzilla' movie, I'd have been a lot easier on it if it had just been named something else. Beckoning Chasm The biggest problem with this particular episode was how Robert Culp ended up as the subject. You'd have thought they'd have specified "unmarried" as a necessary factor. The Outer Limits was one of the best half-hour shows out there. (Yes, I know it was actually an hour long. That's my point.) Anonymous Cool, I am already registered with Disqus, except I only have my handle bgbear. This is roger h. Culp has to have a wife so you can have the youngish but, world weary woman in the episode. That's what I remember most besides the monsters.

(3rd Person Pov)
Bella took Jasper's hand and walked into the compound while the others cleaned up the carnage. She needed some time with her children and mate.
Jasper was happy that Maria was finally gone, because as soon as she was turned to ash, he felt the ever looming sire bond completely vanish. For that, he would be forever thankful to his mate. No one else ever cared enough to kill the bitch that caused nothing, but pain in his life. No one but his mate, that is. He was finally happy, because he was able to show his mate that he wasn't like Edward. They were both changed in different time periods, thus giving them different values in life, both mortal and immortal.
Chapter 25:
(3rd Person POV - Volterra, Italy -An Hour After the Battle)
Aro sat in his study waiting for Caius to show. He had just gotten off the phone with Marcus and had come to realize by the tone of his voice that his brother has never seemed happier. It was also shocking that Marcus said that the Western hemisphere was no longer part of their territory, but the territory of Iz, the Goddess of the South, and her mate, Major Jasper Whitlock, the God of War, himself.
Aro was even more astonished to learn of how Iz had been taking care of the Southern Warlords for making vampires younger than 13. He shivered as he remembered the darling faces of the immortal children, but also the havoc they tended to rot when they were let loose to fend for themselves, along with the havoc that their tantrums seemed to cause.
When a knock came to the door, Aro stood and walked over to answer it, already knowing it was his brother.
"Welcome brother," Aro nodded as he stepped aside to let Caius into the room. "I have news from Marcus." He shut the door then returned to his seat.
Caius stood in front of Aro with his eyes narrowed."Well, out with it. What has he found out?" Caius was one of the toughest, most ruthless of the three Kings, and nothing has ever been known to soften his heart. Except his mate, Athenodora, that is. He seemed to bend to her will whenever she demanded it. "Are we needed in the South?"
"No brother, we are not needed." Aro saw the flicker of remorse in Caius eyes. "Our brother has found that Iz, the Goddess of the South, is, in fact, his niece by blood. I also have heard straight from his mouth that he has declared that Iz be the ruler of the Western Hemisphere, while we take care of the east." Aro waited to see how his brother would react to this news.
Caius frowned. "What of the Cullen's?" He hissed knowing full well that they were behind all of this, even going as far as having been responsible for introducing Iz to the supernatural world. "I am already aware that Marcus has indeed spoken to Alice, Edward and Jasper."
Aro nodded solemnly. "He has yet, I am afraid, to report that Alice and Edward were the ones behind the whole ordeal." His eyes met Caius as he stood. "And as I've said, Major Whitlock has found his mate in Iz, or Isabella Swan, as we have suspected for some time. She is the ruler of the South and hearing from Marcus that she is working with the blood banks along with the law officials. I must admit, I am rather impressed at how she is keeping things in the South a lot quieter since they have been when Maria had taken over." Caius was always the one who had hated Maria, because of how she always came so close to revealing their existence to the humans one too many times.
"We already knew of Edward and Alice's crimes." Caius snapped as he started to pace. "What of Maria? Or Carlisle and Esme? Even Emmett and the girl, Rosalie, have yet to be dealt with. We must make an example of them; that way there won't be others tempted to mimic their mistakes." He spun to face Aro. "Don't you agree, brother?"
Aro slowly nodded his head. "I do agree with you, brother. However, there are things that we must take into account. First, that Emmett and Rosalie have had no such dealings with what the coven leader decides and dictates, just like Carlisle's mate, Esme. He, on the other hand, should have known better, because of the amount of time that he has spent here."
Caius thought quietly for a moment before he spoke."You may be right, brother." He sighed as he sat down in the chair behind him, his head in his hands. "He has always been good at judging people." He looked at his middle brother. "How do you fair now that your mind reader and future seer are gone?" He raised a brow in question. "I know how you treasure your gifted ones."
Aro waved his hand dismissively at Caius as he took a seat in the chair across from him. "It means no difference to me. How would I not know if they betrayed us? They simply cannot be trusted," He leveled his eyes to his younger brother. "They would run straight to the Romanians. Yes, it is better that they were killed by young Isabella then by our own hands. In fact, I do believe Marcus has some news he wishes to speak with us about in person." Aro smiled as he stood, signaling that the meeting was over.
"Do you know what about?" Caius asked as he stood and made to leave.
Aro shook his head. "No, but he has asked us to grant him this one request." He frowned slightly. "Has Marcus ever asked anything of us since Didyme was taken?"
Caius stopped and turned to Aro with a frown on his face, tilting his head thoughtfully. "I do not believe so, no." His lips twitched up with a hint of a smile. "Perhaps it is good that we let some of our power go to this Southern Goddess. If Marcus is enthralled then, I don't believe we need to worry about our animosity."
"You just might be right, brother." Aro conceded as he watched Caius walk triumphantly out of his study. "You may just be right." He whispered to himself as he moved back to the paperwork stacked in front of him on his desk. He never knew that as the years went by, he would have more and more paperwork.
Maybe we should have killed more humans. Aro snorted as he shook his head at such thoughts.
(Bella's POV - The Compound Living Room - 1 ½ Hours Later)
Nick and Mika were out playing in the compound court yard as Raoul, Angela and Faia did a search in case any other newborns were left behind. Jane and Demetri were watching the prisoners, because, for some reason, Marcus didn't wish for them to chance an escape again.
Peter and Charlotte were sitting on one couch, while Emmett, Rosalie and Marcus were sitting across from them on the other. Jasper and I were lounging on the love seat facing all five of them. Kirk and Natalie were watching the kids while the five of we all sat down and decided what to do with the traitors.
The blood banks had sent over all they could, which was quite a lot since the blood we are given isn't able to be used for one reason or another. Those who still wished to went to hunt, yet they were already back. Myself, Marcus, Nick, Mika, Jasper, Peter and Charlotte all stayed in the compound while Emmett and Rosalie went with Natalie and Kirk. I believe that since they did so well while tending to Nick and Mika that they deserved to have a break. Once they arrived back, they went right back to watching the kids. It only confirmed what I had already known when I made the choice in choosing them to keep watch over Nick and Mika.
"What did Aro say about me taking over this side of the world?" I asked Marcus, needing to get the meeting underway.
Marcus smiled as he looked at me. "He did not seem too thrilled, but I will explain more once I see him in person." He sighed as he leaned back against the back of the couch and turned to Emmett and Rosalie. "Aro and I had decided that Carlisle and Esme both need a 'reeducation', if you will, on how a vampire is to behave. You may either join us in Volterra, which may be hard on young Rosalie, or you may stay here under my dear Isabella's command."
"I would like to stay here." Rosalie whispered looking over at me. "While I understand that things won't be the same as they were, living in Volterra will be a nightmare for me." I could see her begin to shake at the mere thought of it, while Jasper projected her fear on to me and Marcus.
"I'm with my Rosie." Emmett spoke up, wrapping his arm around his mate in a comforting manner. "While I know that it's gonna be different, I want to stay with my lil' sister. We left her once before and I don't wanna make that mistake again."
I could feel venom prick at the back of my eyes. "I would love to have you both here." I smiled at them both before focusing on Rosalie. "You may also help Natalie and Kirk with the little ones-"
Before I could finish, Angela and Faia rushed in.
"I'm sorry for the interruption, Boss, but we found a small group of newborns in the trees not too far from here." Faia said as she stood next to Angela. "Also, Nick and Mika are upset, however I am not sure as to why." I could see the worry hidden within her eyes.
"I'll be right there." I responded while standing to my feet and moving towards the door. "Marcus, Jasper, would you both accompany me? Rosalie, Emmett, you might also wish to follow, since I will be dealing with the children." I called over my shoulder as I exited the room. "You could learn something from this."
I could feel that Nick was trying to contact me, but I didn't wish to speak with him through the bond, but rather in person. If there was something wrong, then I wanted to see his face when he told me so that I could see his true feelings in his eyes when he spoke. I briefly wondered if Nick and Mika's mates were amongst the group of newborns, thus the reason that they are upset.
Shaking my head, I pushed myself faster until I reached the doors to the outside. I pushed them open and walked out with my eyes narrowed. I scanned the courtyard and found that Mika and Nick were fighting with Kirk and Natalie.
"Let us through!" Nick yelled, as he tried to pass Kirk. "We need to get through!"
"ENOUGH!" I bellowed, causing Nick and Mika to rush over to my side. Kirk and Natalie also followed after them, however a little slower. "Now, what is the problem?" I hissed, narrowing my eyes at the kids.
"There's something pulling me towards the woods." Nick said as he looked at Marcus. "You can see it, can't you?" I could see the venom in his eyes as they starting to well up with venom.
Marcus nodded as he turned to me. "Indeed, there are two bright golden strings attaching the two young ones to the woods." He looked back at Natalie and Kirk. "Take a break, we shall escort the children."
They both looked at me for confirmation, and when I nodded, they turned and headed into the compound. I that knew they needed some quiet time to themselves and having Marcus remind me of that was a good idea.
I smiled as I looked down at Nick and Mika, who were looking as though we were going on a hunting trip. I smiled and raised a brow at Nick; he knew what he needed to do before we departed.
"Alright, alright." He whispered as he lowered his head and took my hand.
I chuckled as I held a hand out to Mika. They were so young, yet it was sometimes hard to remember that from how grown up and mature they acted most of the time. Though, they still were able to act as the children that they were, and would always be.
Mika eagerly took my outstretched hand as we took off out of the compound's court yard. I could tell that Nick knew where he was going, which is why I let them lead me to where ever we needed to go.
Nick and Mika didn't take us far from where the battle was fought. In a small cluster of trees, I could see four small figures huddled close together. I threw a shield around my family as we closed in.
From what I could see, there were two girls and two boys. The two boys looked like twins. They both had the same color of hair and the same bright red newborn eyes, however, one was taller than the other. The two girls had blond hair with duller red eyes, and I could see the many bite marks that littered them on their arms and legs. They all were rather young, too young to have been turned by law, thus deeming them immortal children. If I were to guess, they were all about the same ages as Nick and Mika. We were just lucky that they were of age where they could be taught. It was rare that a Warlord would change a toddler or child under the age of five. They required vampires who could learn and fight, rather than the others who made immortal children from a younger child. They were usually the kind who just wanted a child of their own and didn't have the concept of what it would mean for the child to be forever frozen at that age.
Pushing my thoughts aside, I took a step forward when the tallest, who was holding the older of the two girls, snarled and placed her behind him. I held up my hands as I motioned for Nick and Mika to step forward. The boy and girl who were standing by themselves immediately ceased their growling and stared at the Nick and Mika.
Nick held his arms out and waited for the young girl to come to him. She darted her eyes to me, then rushed into his arms. Mika walked over and took the shorter of the twin boy's hand, bring him over to meet me. I watched as the three mated pairs stood in front of me. Marcus had a frown on his face as he turned to me.
"I shall leave Emmett and Rosalie here, under your command." Marcus then looked back at the children we had just found. "Do you know who we are?" he asked the boy holding the blond haired girl.
"Iz, the Goddess of the South," He pointed a look at me. "And you are Marcus Volturi. Are you going to kill us?" He looked over at, who I assumed to be, his brother.
"No." I answered his question. "You will be brought to the compound and be given things to do. Other than that, you are aware that will remain at the age that you are now, forever. If you don't mind answering, what are your names?" I smiled trying to be as non-threatening as possible.
"My name is Greg," The taller twin said holding the girl close to him. "My twin brother is, Ashton. My mate and her sister are Callie and Samantha." Callie was at his side, while Samantha was at Nick's. Ashton was holding Mika as though she was spun of glass.
"Then shall we head back?" I turned to Rosalie and Emmett. "Since you are not old enough to be out on your own, Emmett and Rosalie, along with Kirk and Natalie, will be watching over you as your guardians. If you wouldn't mind, Rose, would you take the children to their new rooms? Mated pairs are to stay together."
Rosalie beamed at the chance to play mother, even if it wasn't a permanent position. "Of course," she then turned to the kids. "Come on, we also have some blood for you all at the compound. You all look rather thirsty. Emmett also likes to play tag, among other things. Not to mention…" Her voice trailed off as Emmett and she took the new children, along with Nick and Mika, back to the compound.
"You are very lucky." Marcus whispered as Jasper wrapped his arms around me, sending me his love. "To have a family even after you lose your humanity. It is indeed a blessing." he turned to me with open arms. "Please remember that you have more family out there other than those who are here." He hugged me as I pulled away from Jasper and went to Marcus.
"I know. She'll be alight." Jasper said as he stood there with a smile on his face, grinning down at me. "She's a tough vampire to mess with. Not to mention, her mate's close by and will mangle anyone who threatens her and her happiness."
Marcus nodded as he let me return to Jasper. Upon turning back to look at him, I couldn't help but to briefly frown as I watched him look down at his ring, stroking the glass that held what was left of his beloved Didyme's ashes.
He sighed and looked back up at the two of us. "As much as it pains me, I must take the prisoners and head back to Volterra." He walked over and shook Jasper's hand. "Please take care of mi Cara. She has been hurt for far too long and deserves this happiness." He then kissed me on the forehead as he pulled his phone out and began to dial.
"Let's hunt before we head back. I want to talk to you about something." I whispered as I held his hand. "Faia and Sai can handle things until we return. Kirk and Natalie have help with the kids since four more seem to have been added to the ranks. I don't think there will be much of a problem now with Maria gone."
"Sounds like a great idea, Darlin." Jasper whispered as he pulled me into his arms, as he took off running towards town.
I couldn't be happier. I just wished my son and best friend could be here to see it. Not to mention, my father. I just pray that Charlie is as happy as I hope he is. Even with after all the heart break, I still was able to hold myself together. I couldn't be more proud of myself, if I tried. I just hoped that things would be forever slow and uneventful.
Author Note – So what do you think? Carlisle, Esme, Edward and Alice are heading back to Volterra with Marcus. Rosalie and Emmett get to stay with Bella and now Nick and Mika have mates. Not to mention, the other two young kids that were found. What do you think will happen next? Til next time keep reading and reviewing...

Fly High With NoMachine NX – Connect to Desktop and Applications Even at 30,000 Feet
Executives on-the-go boost productivity using NoMachine NX to access desktops and applications from air, land or sea over any network connection
Pulled in a million different directions at once, top executives have schedules jam-packed with travel for business meetings or to visit customer sites. Their heavy work load depends on constant communication and application access, even while on a jet flying at over 30,000 feet.
Director of Thin Client Solutions at Computer Products Corporation, Jeff Kalberg says, "At times, I feel like I am out of the office more than I am in it. I travel frequently and often it feels like the only time I have to check e-mails and catch up on proposals, marketing and sales is while I am on the plane traveling from one place to another."
NX provides flexibility without restrictions for these on-the-go users to remotely access their computing environment from virtually anywhere, on any network or operating system, even when using low-bandwidth and high latency connections. Whether it is close proximity, like a few miles away, half way around the world or from a plane, users can access their desktop and applications on a wireless connection to the NX Server quickly and easily through the NX Client.
"With NX, I am able to securely connect to my office desktop as if I were sitting at my local machine, while flying at over 30,000 feet. Truly an anywhere and everywhere solution, the performance is amazing and NX allows me to accomplish more and stay in touch with my family, while I am away. This provides major benefits for anyone who travels as much as myself," says Kalberg.
The power of NX allows executives to address important projects and connect with others from wherever they may be. Employees that spend days and weeks away from the office, living out of a suitcase, don't have to neglect business or their personal lives with NX. Whether travel takes them to another city, across the country or around the world, they won't miss a beat.
As the number of remote workers increases, one of the highly desirable advantages is being able to multi-task and work while traveling and when at remote locations. Remote access without boundaries can improve business operations and services, preventing physical location from restricting performance.
Regardless of location or the network environment, NX provides real-time performance in remote sessions, automatically tuning itself to network bandwidth and latency parameters. Additionally, providing security through SSH encryption, NX provides the complete connectivity and mobility that is demanded in today's non-stop world.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Norman Conquest of England in 1066. This Norman name was soon thereafter given to a free-spirited or eccentric person. Further research showed the name was derived from the Latin word follis which formerly referred to anything filled with air, but which later took on metaphorical connotations of empty-headedness and vanity.
Fole Early Origins
family seat from early times, and granted the lands by William the Conqueror for their assistance at the Battle of Hastings in 1066 A.D. The family originated in Cotentin in western Normandy, and Sampson Foliot was the Seigneur, or Lord, of Montfarville, near Cherbourg.
Fole Spelling Variations
Fole Spelling Variations
Before the advent of the printing press and the first dictionaries, the English language was not standardized. Sound was what guided spelling in the Middle Ages, so one person's name was often recorded under several variations during a single lifetime. Spelling variations were common, even among the names of the most literate people. Known variations of the Fole family name include Folliot, Foliot, Folliott, Ffolliott and others.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
To escape the political and religious chaos of this era, thousands of English families began to migrate to the New World in search of land and freedom from religious and political persecution. The passage was expensive and the ships were dark, crowded, and unsafe; however, those who made the voyage safely were encountered opportunities that were not available to them in their homeland. Many of the families that reached the New World at this time went on to make important contributions to the emerging nations of the United States and Canada. Research into various historical records has revealed some of first members of the Fole family to immigrate North America:

|Farndon, Cheshire from the centre of the village to St Chad's Church
|Second Saturday in July
|2 pm
Every July the villagers at Farndon parade to St Chad's Church for their Rush Bearing Celebrations. Before churches had paved floors, rushes were strewn to keep the earth floors sweet and it was common to make a special occasion from their annual renewal. Few such customs survive and the ones which do are mainly in North-West England. At Farndon the special service in the church is preceded by a procession involving the local schoolchildren, their Rush Bearing Queen and the Farndon and District Brass Band, and flowers and rushes are used to decorate the churchyard.
Helpful Hints
There's a fete with lots of stalls and entertainments and refreshments are availalable in the Memorial Hall nearby.
Church-crawlers may be interested to know that St Chad's was badly damaged while used as a garrison during the Civil wars, and that John Speed the famous cartographer donated plate to St Chad's as his place of baptism.
In 2018 it will be on Saturday July 14th.

By the early '70s, Judd Marmor was on his way to the vice presidency of the American Psychiatric Association. He and a number of allies in the APA arranged to have outside gay activists disrupt APA meetings to protest the persistence of homosexuality as a diagnostic category within the APA's list of disorders. Eventually, these protests led to a series of meetings with the APA's "nomenclature committee" at which "research" was presented purportedly demonstrating no connection between homosexuality and psychopathology. These presentations were tendentious, the "research" consisting largely of Hooker's bogus work and Kinsey's data. With that, along with political pressure and the "civil-rights" argument, homosexuality was removed from the diagnostic manual.
Perhaps we need to get Thousands of people to walk on Washington, and have every article these good Freepers have gathered, including this very informative article, and hand deliver copies to the President, andf for good measure, the Secretary of Education, and Secretary of Health and Human Services.
Gidget, good summary of a very lengthy historical "event." I just got through reading a 25 page account of what happened in '73!

Just thought you guys would like to learn about this little place- if it was for me, I would have never set foot in a strip-mall joint called "Napoletana Pizzeria" smack on El Camino, with lights so low it looks like it is closed from the street. However, a friend of a friend of a friend (all from Italy) recommended it, and so I headed out there with my girlfriends (all from Italy as well), and we were shocked and surprised to find pretty good pizza Napoli style in the middle of suburbia!
The dough is chewy and elastic, the way it is supposed to be- not too thin (Roma style), not too thick (New York style), with the right amount of black blistering from the wood-fired oven, and the toppings are good- maybe not exceptional, but solidly in the pretty good category! Just a few pizza on the menu, we loved the Carcerato with delicious ricotta hidden in the crust (just around the edge), the Cafone (white with broccoli rabe and sausage) and the prosciutto e funghi, really well done without being too heavy. But more than anything, the dough is really, really good.

When it comes to disruptive technologies, it can be a challenge to cut through the clutter. Cloud computing is no exception. With Q2 of 2013 officially closed, the early majority has left no room for doubt. The chasm a distant memory, adoption has reached its tipping point. The Cloud is here to stay, especially following Gartner's bullish prediction of 18.5% market growth to $131 billion earlier this year. Monitoring is therefore emerging as the challenge enterprises must champion.
Scalability vs. Cost Savings
A quick recap for those hesitant to follow the cloud adopters. The public cloud offers two compelling advantages; Increased ROI and unprecedented, on-the-fly scalability. Interestingly, these benefits tend to clash. Consider that even traditional IT monitoring has effectively failed to deliver on actionable visibility into IT. Understandably, critics might frown upon a solution that introduces even more complexity into the mix. Cloud deployments are dynamic by nature, so scaling often in either direction comes with the territory. Unfortunately, these fluctuations tend to throw a monkey wrench into cloud monitoring efforts. Using more than they actually need, devops teams tend to over-provision for a worst case scenario – at the expense of ROI. The result is that a deployment's ability to frequently scale up and down must be monitored and optimized, ultimately becoming the organizational metric for cloud success.
On-Demand Isn't Always On-Budget
Monitoring over 4 million AWS instances, we've noticed over-provisioning is a pervasive pain point. Amazon Web Services On-demand vs. Reserved Instance planning is an excellent example of how effective monitoring produces interesting, often counter-intuitive, results. With unprecedented scalability at their fingertips, IT teams can spin up an on-demand computing resource (processing power, RAM, storage etc.) as often as they like with no strings attached. The assumption is that with no CAPEX lock-in, you can easily over-provision and trim off the excess later. In practice, those on-demand instances stay running far longer than necessary, and even worse – are rarely utilized over 9%.
Amazon actually offers Reserved Instances, which require a longer commitment (1 or 3 years) but cost less. While reserved instances are more cost effective in many cases, customers still tend to opt for on-demand pricing models by default – effectively favoring scalability over cost effectiveness. Even AWS customers who have acted on our recommendations to make the switch to Reserved Instances discovered that on average nearly 25% remained unused. Over time, this inefficiency can be corrected with a direct impact on Cloud ROI.
At the other extreme, AWS deployments can easily cause costs to skyrocket. Last year, Wired described how massive use of images in a shared Google spreadsheet inflated one customer's Amazon bill to shocking proportions in a Denial of Money Attack. This is exactly the type of scenario effective cloud monitoring enables customers to isolate, anticipate and ultimately eliminate.
Proactive 4D Cloud Monitoring
While monitoring what you've already done is a great first step, looking at the past will only get you so far. The new cloud model favors proactive monitoring that produces actionable recommendations – factoring the four dimensions of performance, cost, utilization, and time. In addition to forecasting cloud usage, this holistic approach introduces a whole new layer of visibility into cloud initiatives. As a case in point, we ran a benchmarking analysis across our entire AWS customer base running instances of multiple sizes (Small, Medium, and Large). Our systems showed that deployments running two Medium instances consistently delivered up to 30% more performance than a single Large for a given cloud resource - with both options costing the same. At the same time, most instance utilization rates remain below 9%. This data contributes to an in-depth understanding of current and future capacity usage, enabling enterprises to monitor and optimize cloud costs based on budgetary constraints. Factor in capacity and pricing over time, and clear trends emerge, providing an added layer of insight into cloud planning and optimization.
Who's the Cloudiest of Them All?
Imagine shopping for a wireless package with no idea how much data or voice you're going to need. That is precisely the predicament many enterprises face when making cloud purchasing decisions. The goal of the new monitoring paradigm is to provide both IT and financial managers a whole new level of visibility into the cloud. Once implemented, this empowers enterprises to monitor, control, and decrease spend without compromising on performance. In some cases, proactive monitoring has helped SaaS companies to isolate specific customers who were actually costing more than they were paying for. Such a granular level of monitoring puts an end to both under-utilization and over-provisioning, impacting internal accountability, efficiency, and cloud success.
Welcome to the New Cloud Economy
Decreasing cost is just an important first step to justifying spending. However, looking at cloud spend alone misses the goal of providing a holistic business perspective. Suppose cloud spending actually increased 15%. While the CFO might not be thrilled at first glance, a resulting 20% increase in revenue would probably put her at ease (assuming the CTO presents a compelling case for the causal connection). But cloud economics aren't so cut and dry. The end-goal is to align cost with usage, defining a high-level indicator that encapsulates the total cloud resource consumption.
Asking The Cloud Question
Although William Stanley Jevons formulated his paradox by asking The Coal Question in 1865, his economic argument applies to the 21st century cloud: As technological progress increases efficiency and lowers cost, usage actually increases. Outlined in his book "The Coal Question," the Jevons paradox was counterintuitive at the time. Run it by any 21st century Economics 101 student, and it makes perfect sense. As the price of a commodity drops, its demand increases. That is precisely why cloud vendors love services that optimize performance and decrease spend. We help enterprises decrease the barrier to cloud entry, and dramatically increase the total value of the cloud. From a cloud economics perspective, this means our job is to define, monitor, and report on cost-per-computation unitd rather than the actual monetary spend on the balance sheet.
eBay proposed an interesting methodology to tackle this very challenge. The Digital Services Efficiency (DSE) dashboard calculates how much energy the company consumes per transaction. This is easily converted to cost, revenue, or even carbon emissions per transaction. It's a great example of the granular level of monitoring a giant like eBay can reach. Of course, not every company has access to the IT resources an e-Commerce leader like eBay needs to compete in the marketplace. But the underlying business need is pervasive throughout the cloud economy.
Cloud Monitoring Starts at C-level
It's easy to get caught up in a bottom-up analysis of cloud resources. Ask a devops pro about AWS monitoring, and the discussion will inevitably turn to a given EC2 instance that is the root-cause of the e-commerce application inefficiency, explaining downtime and critical loss of revenue. While accurate, this approach misses the point entirely by not asking the right cloud question. From a cloud economics perspective, you start with the C-level executives and ask the following: "Looking at your entire cloud deployment, what is the aggregated cost-per-transaction in your e-commerce operation?" The discussion then becomes a basis not only for IT initiatives, but for the business as a whole. No doubt, that EC2 instance the devops pro was concerned about will become relevant, but it alone can never provide the bigger cloud picture we're all trying to piece together.

At Initiative we're a social bunch. Recently we've been working on new ways of visualising the bewildering wealth of social media data out there.
Social media is a rich source of information with which to plan, activate and optimise campaigns. As an agency, we're also adept at using it for reporting performance and detailed analysis of consumer conversations.
Yet it's also useful to take a step back and use this data to look at the bigger picture. We've been searching for a way of providing our clients with a macro-view of their brand that is simple, insightful and visually compelling…
…And we've found it. It's a technique we're calling 'Social Fingerprinting'.
The distinctiveness of the human fingerprint was first quantified in in the late nineteenth century by Francis Galton, a Victorian polymath (who happened also to be Charles Darwin's cousin). Galton estimated that the chance of two people having the same prints was about one in 64 million. Each fingerprint is all but unique, and can provide vital information about its owner.
The same is true of brands on social media. Every brand creates a unique pattern, comprised of the conversation flows between that brand, its consumers and influencers.
With this in mind, and by using a bit of data mining and programming magic, we can assemble a brand's 'Social Fingerprint' – a picture of the unique pattern each brand leaves on the social web.
Here's our very own Jemma Baylis with one such example. The weird image behind Jemma represents the Twitter hashtag #GrowingUpInLondon.
It's both trippy and insightful – not just a pretty picture! For by comparing each unique Social Fingerprint with other relevant cases, we are able to understand the strengths and weaknesses of a brand's ability to engage audiences.
Come and talk to us if you'd like to know more.

After lambasting the Congress- Samajwadi party alliance and Dalit leader Mayawati at a rally in Meerut on Saturday ahead of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi addresses yet another rally in Aligarh.
Although Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is yet to announce its chief ministerial candidate, PM Modi, the party's star campaigner, is leaving no stone unturned in its attempt to win the electoral race.
In his first rally before Uttar Pradesh votes in the first phase of seven-phase Assembly elections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi termed the alliance between Samajwadi Party and Congress a pact of opportunism. PM Modi had attacked the BJP's political rivals in Uttar Pradesh, terming them as SCAM - 'S' stands for Samajwadi Party, 'C' for Congress, 'A' for Akhilesh and 'M' for Mayawati.
PM Modi also called upon the people to give BJP a mandate similar to the 2014 general elections when the party won 71 of the 80 Lok Sabha seats in Uttar Pradesh. Uttar Pradesh will witness a seven-phased election for 403 seats from February 11 to March 8.
HERE ARE THE UPDATES FROM THE PM's SPEECH:

How To: DIY Brazilian Keratin Hair Treatment
How To: DIY Brazilian Keratin Hair Treatment
2 Comments on How To: DIY Brazilian Keratin Hair Treatment
I just today happened to watch one of your videos on cutting your own hair, which brought me to your website and saw your video on doing your own keratin hair treatment. I was today going to make an appointment with my hair stylist to cut my hair, but since i saw your video i believe i shall do a little experimenting and try it out myself since im looking into going to beauty school. I love your videos and they seem easy to follow! I am wondering what supplies (scissors, etc) i should buy to cut hair? If i do decide to try the keratin treatment, what brands and supplies should i have, and is there any pros/cons to the treatment or harm that will be done to the hair? Also, i was wondering if you have recommendations on hair products to use for dry Colorado weather? It always seems that my hair drys and breaks right after i get it cut, which doesn't help when trying to grow out my hair.Reply
Thank you for your time and your videos!

Dear NCTA,
The NCTA just found out that e-helmets will not be available for the 2016 National Collegiate Taekwondo Championships. This means that sparring competitors will not need the additional heel sensor for their Daedo socks. As there will be no need for the heel socks, they will not be allowed.
Make sure to register for this event by Monday, April 18. Anyone who does not register cannot compete or coach.

Britain is a markedly generous country when it comes to charitable donations. Our research shows that over £9 billion was given to charities last year. Although overall donation levels dipped slightly, just as other consumer spending did, it's clear to me that Britain is still very much a country which believes in giving to charity. In order that this continues, it's crucial that charities retain the trust of those who give to them.
Charities are deeply careful with their money, always conscious that every pound is precious. Equally, any organisation can only cut so many costs before it finds itself in the realm of false economies and its effectiveness is reduced. These dilemmas are familiar to everyone in the charity sector. They agonise over spending on a daily basis. Will this make the biggest difference? Can we do it cheaper? And where they can, they invariably do.
The modern charity sector is highly diverse. Charities range from small, local organisations to large, complex organisations. All have their place and all contribute to a stronger society, and of course their salary policies will reflect this diversity.
All charities are governed by trustees. Nearly all of them are volunteers – they are not paid for their time, a feature unique to charities. But they have the tricky task of setting executive remuneration. They have to balance attracting and retaining quality staff with making the most of the charity's limited resources. They have to ensure that they can secure, in the case of many charity chief executives, someone with decades of professional experience in their area, capable of running a complex organisation effectively. Putting the right price on this expertise is not easy. Of course, there will always be someone willing to give it a go for less – but a good leader is crucial to an organisation's success. The trustees are accountable for recruiting the right person.
We will create, with the Charity Commission's backing, clear guidance on the process trustees should go through in order to get their decision right. Our work will be led by a group of chairs of trustees from charities of different types and sizes, those with experience of making these decisions. I expect it will cover important matters relating to benchmarking, seeking independent advice, and being transparent. The best do this already, but it is clear that there is public concern on this matter, and all charities must focus on ensuring their processes are as strong as possible.
Getting this right is critical to public trust and confidence in individual organisations and the charities as a whole.
