In order to complete your programme successfully, it is important to have a good command of English and be able to apply this in an academic environment. Therefore, if you are a non-UK applicant* you will usually be required to provide certificated proof of English language competence before commencing your studies.
For this course the minimum requirement is Academic IELTS of 6.5 overall with 6.0 in Writing and 5.5 in Reading, Listening and Speaking.
Applicants who do not meet the English language requirements may be eligible to join our pre-sessional English language course.

This message is sent on behalf of Dean of the College Jacque Fetrow, who also chairs the IT Executive Committee (ITEC):
I'm writing to let you know the outcome of the Next Steps Initiative. We will move forward with the plan and two year pilot that has been proposed and presented in ITEC's preliminary report distributed in January. (I thank all of you who took the time to respond to that report.) The College will move to a two-year pilot, to explore the issues associated with laptop choice and with virtualization of some parts of the software load. The university will pay for the costs of the pilot programs for both choice and virtualization. Information Systems (IS) and the College will pay for the costs of updating the standard laptop to a higher-performing model which will last for four years (if necessary).
As recommended by CIT, the faculty laptops will be moving to a four-year rotation, and will include the upgrades to the higher-performing model. More information will be coming from the IS department regarding opportunities for additional minor upgrades for faculty.
There will be no option for faculty who are not scheduled for laptop replacement this year, nor for rising sophomores or seniors, to replace their laptop with the new model. As always, there is the option for anyone to purchase the standard laptop on the Library's "Friends and Family" web page. Any student or faculty member who does this with personal funds will not be able to access some of the standard load software, because of licensing issues.
Our next step is moving forward with "Vision 2020: A Technology Plan for Wake Forest University," the goal of which is to consider the future of technology and computing in education at Wake Forest. You will hear more about this initiative in coming months.
I thank all of you for your feedback and active participation over the past year, as we have worked together to identify the future of the laptop program at Wake Forest.

There is a lie being spread by our adversary, the devil. The lie is destroying the very foundations of faith in Jesus Christ. It's disguised itself as independence and strength, but is creating slothfulness and complacency in the church and destroying home after home.
The lie is that God does not expect our obedience. The lie is that obedience is not a necessary part of sincere faith in God. There is no doubt that faith is the only thing necessary for salvation in Jesus Christ.
"…a man is not justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ."
Galatians 2:16 NIV
This point is driven home throughout the Christian circles like crazy. The unfortunate part of this story is that faith alone being our source of salvation, has turned into just believing in God. "Just believe in Jesus Christ as your personal Savior and he'll save you". It's true, I believe that. Unfortunately, the word "believe" means something different to all of us than it did in the original Greek in which the New Testament was written.
When you tell someone they just have to "believe", the obvious truth is that most of the Christian world has "believed" the words of John 3:16, but not actually continued reading down into verses twenty and twenty-one where the word "believe" takes on a deeper understanding. There Jesus says:
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life…Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God."
John 3:16, 20-21 NIV
James takes explains this idea further:
"What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed," but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
But someone will say, "You have faith; I have deeds."
Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.
You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder."
James 2:14-19 NIV
In all of our work helping "Christian couples" to rise above the lies of Satan and consequences of sin, we have only had one couple come to us who didn't believe in God at all. That means God's people are cheating on each other, betraying one another, and separating what God brought together. Isn't that a bad sign about our understanding of God's will?
How can we say the love of God is within us when we're living so far from His will? We can't. Our actions are not representative of the Savior in whom we say we have faith. Even the demons believe as many Christians do.
The word believe, in it's original Greek, means to "entrust" yourself. It's not just an "aha" moment where we understand something. It goes beyond that. It extends to the time when we give ourselves over to the thing we now understand. Faith, in it's nature, requires action.
Jesus goes as far as to say:
"If you love me, you will obey what I command."
John 14:15 NIV
He doesn't just treat obedience as if it's a good idea. He says that our obedience is a direct reflection of our love for Him. So, how much do you love God? How strong is your faith?
"We know that we have come to know him if we obey his commands. The man who says, "I know him," but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But if anyone obeys his word, God's love is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did."
I John 2:3-6 NIV
If you believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God – If you believe that He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, then you will live in that way and obey His commands. As a result, you will experience the benefits of living in the way you were created to live.

As I have wrote before, Japanese often eat light and plain food like somen nudle in summer for the muggy weather of japan.
About somen, click here!
However, just only somen, we get protein shortage easily, so we need to pay attention to the nutritional balance.
Then, I made this somen; healthy and high nutririon values!
Ingredients( for 2 portions):
Chicken meat(breast or thigh)…about 150g
Your favorite vegetables( I used eggplant, pumpkin, sweet potato, lotus root, and perilla( Japanese herb like basils))…total amount about 200g
Salt…a dash of
Sesame oil…1Tbsp
Potato starch…1Tbsp
Noodle soup
Citron fruit…1 fruit
How to make:
1, cut into slivers the meat into bite-size pieces, then lightly salted and sprinkle potato starch. Cut all vegetables except perilla into bite-size pieces( about 5mm thin), submerge in cold water to eliminate bitterness and drain them.Cut the citron fruit in round slices.
2, grille the chicken with sesame oil on medium heat, skin side firstly, then turn over until both sides get brown and cooked completely.
After cooked the chicken, pour off the oil, and while still hot, put them into a sauce container.
3, cook vegetables(except perilla) same as chicken.
4, leave them to cool for 10 minutes( add lemon slices to them), then cover it with plastic wrap. Cool it in the refrigerator until right before eating.
5, boil somen and cool it with cold water, drain. Arrange the somen, marinade vegetables in the plate. Arrange perilla on them , Then, pour the marinade sauce over them.
That's all!

Re: KITT's window is in production!!!
Wonder how much it would cost to put together the entire kitt with all his functions with everything avilable these days.The technology like a navigation screen,car that takes care of situations like when your sleeping at the wheel,the fingerprint scanner is probably doable.The least expensive part would have to be the 1982 trans am.

Bootsy Collins posted a message to his Facebook page today:
"Remembering Minnie Julia Riperton (November 8,– July 12, 1979)...singer-songwriter best known for her vocal range of five-and-a-half octaves, and her 1975 single "Lovin' You". How many Happies can we give to this very special legend? SHOW YR LOVE & HIT THAT LOVE BUTTON."
In honor of Bootsy and Minnie Ripperton, this is no better place to watch this take of "Lovin' You", which was filmed on the 1970's music television program Midnight Special. Enjoy!
There is no official Minnie Ripperton website online yet, but there is a nice unofficial tribute site here.

Grown in the Temecula wine country, our fresh Lemongrass is grown with NO fertilizers, NO herbicides, and NO cultivation. It is grown in a Permaculture food forest where the soil biology is complex and healthy making our Lemongrass very aromatic and a culinary gem.
Lemongrass is an herb which is used mostly in the Asian cuisine but has found its way into western fare as well. It has a tangy lemon-like flavor and is added to the broths dried or fresh. It is added to meat, poultry, and seafood dishes and adds a vibrant citrus flavor to the food. Lemongrass oil can be used as a preservative and is also helpful in repelling insects such as mosquitoes and flies.
Use the whole lemongrass in stews and curries (remember to fish it out before serving). Chop and use to make marinades and soups or add to stir-fries. Use as a flavoring for Crème Brulee or steep a stalk in a bottle of vodka for cocktails (clean and bruise a lemongrass stalk, then put it in a nearly full bottle of vodka for 3-4 days, shaking occasionally; then remove the stalks).

Going into a playoff against a hungry Tim Cahill and the Socceroos is no simple task. Australia come off a confidence boosting second-leg victory Tuesday over Syria in the AFC playoff (2-1). Overall, the Aussies win their playoff on aggregate (3-2). Tons of scenarios can play out tonight, where the likes of Chris Wondolowski and the U.S., Anibal Godoy and Panama or Honduras could finish fourth in the CONCACAF table and face the Aussies next month.
It's clear that if the U.S. is victorious over Trinidad and Tobago tonight, the red, white and blue will mathematically secure the last remaining automatic bid. However, Panama or Honduras can automatically qualify (assuming either side wins and the U.S. loses). Let's see what happens tonight.

Monday Tuesday – August 18, 2015
Late again, because I've had a busy couple of days.
Zucchini, zucchini, always zucchini… and tomatoes. There were more tomatoes, a handful for lunch every day, that I didn't take pictures of.
Pasta with tomatoes and zucchini for a quick dinner.
I harvested all the chard in the community garden, because I was sick of having to water it all the time – it's been very hot and very dry for weeks, and the chard, with its big leaves, needed a lot of water. I still haven't eaten it, though, it all went into the freezer.
Chopping and blanching all of it (1.7 kg) took me about two hours…
My beets are getting quite big, too. I ate this one grated, with grated apple and mashed bananas – my mother made that sometimes when I was a child, and I still like it. It's how I eat most of my beets, actually.

Tuckerton is a borough in Ocean County, New Jersey, United States, named for founder Ebenezer Tucker (1758–1845), and was a port of entry, but not the third Port of Entry in the United States, as is often described. As of the 2010 United States Census, the borough's population was 3,347, reflecting a decline of 170 (−4.8%) from the 3,517 counted in the 2000 Census, which had in turn increased by 469 (+15.4%) from the 3,048 counted in the 1990 Census.
Tuckerton was incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on February 18, 1901, from portions of Little Egg Harbor Township.
The borough is surrounded by Little Egg Harbor Township, but is politically independent. Because Tuckerton and Little Egg Harbor share the same 08087 ZIP code and Little Egg Harbor has no true "downtown" area, many refer to Little Egg Harbor and surrounding suburbs as "Tuckerton".
Tuckerton is home to the Tuckerton Seaport, a working maritime museum and village.
The area that is now Tuckerton was settled in 1698. Some of the early settlers were Andrews, Falkinburgs, Shourds, Ongs, Willets and Osborns. Edward Andrews settled on the east side of the Pohatcong Creek; his brother, Mordecai Andrews settled on the west side of the same creek. Edward, tired of going to Mount Holly Township with his grain, constructed a cedar log grist mill on the site of a dam built by beavers at the mouth of what is known as Tuckerton Creek. He built the grist mill in 1704, and it still stands to this day.
Tuckerton became a Port of Entry of the United States, but not the third port as is commonly believed, with Ebenezer Tucker appointed Collector, his commission bearing the date March 21, 1791, signed by George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.

Something old, something new, something borrowed & something blue
Something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue
This saying is from an old English rhyme which names the four good luck objects that a bride should where on her wedding day. The custom is taken on by many at their wedding celebration. "Something old" represents continuity, "something new" expresses excitement for what's to come, "something borrowed" is humbling, indicating borrowed happiness and "something blue" represents fidelity and purity. Although it is an old saying, these elements can be incorporated in many new ways.
Something old: This is a very special opportunity to connect with previous generation family members, some far enough back that they are not around anymore, and to incorporate them into your big day in a unique way. This can be done traditionally by wearing a family heirloom jewellery (which doubles up as something borrowed), or with a twist, incorporating objects and material from vintage clothing into a very unique bouquet of flowers made from these materials or objects. In this way, the bouquet itself is also timeless.
A fun way to incorporate something old is by having the "bride/groom" car as a funky vintage model. Or to get even more abstract, read old, classic and timeless poetry at the ceremony.
Something new: This one should be easy, everything is new! New dress and shoes, new name, new life together! But for something more tangible, incorporate the key of you new home into the ceremony or wear a new scent specially for the wedding that will bring back beautiful memories every time it is worn and smelt in the future.
Something borrowed: As mentioned previously, it is special to be able to borrow an old family heirloom in the form of jewellery on this momentous occasion, you can also borrow someone who holds an important role in your life's dress and fix it up to suit your own style. If this is too much you can borrow a handbag instead. Other subtle ways of incorporating borrowing is by borrowing a first dance song that you found particularly romantic at another wedding or anything else from the theme or set up of other weddings that you really enjoyed.
Something blue: There are so many ways of incorporating something blue. Sapphire jewellery would be an exquisite something blue, wear blue dressing robes while getting your hair and makeup done. Or for something sneakily sexy, wear blue lingerie underneath your gown or a traditionally a blue garter.
If you are the creative type, there are ways to make your own saying all in one. This can be done by using a big safety pin and attaching an old piece of jewellery, a new piece of jewellery, a borrowed from the ocean pearl, and a blue bead. Or combinations as you please for a really interesting and unique way of incorporating an old saying.

"Accessibility and Usability" is an essential aspect of quality at Sony. Sony aims to create products and services that people can use with ease—independent of age and disabilities.
Sony's accessibility and usability initiatives are overseen by the Corporate Executive Officer in charge of Product Quality. The main implementers are the Quality and Environmental Department and HR Department at Sony headquarters, Sony Global Solutions Inc., and the Quality & Environmental Promotion Division at Sony Global Manufacturing & Operations Corporation, with further cooperation from other related departments and Sony Group organizations. Products and services are getting more multifunctional and their user interfaces tend to be more complex with advanced technology. Sony employs intradepartmental cooperation on development to deliver products and services that people can use with ease and comfort. In order to deliver a superior user experience, Sony incorporates human-centered design concepts and takes a user-centered approach to the planning, design, and testing of its products and services.
Sony conducts worldwide user research including home visits and user interviews in order to develop products and services that meet users' essential needs. In order to improve usability factors such as visibility, understandability, and responsiveness, Sony repeats cycles of detecting and correcting problems, employing usability testing from the prototype stage. In addition to pre-release testing, Sony also conducts long-term use surveys after products go on sale to gain an understanding of customer satisfaction and any usability problems that arise when products are used on a day-to-day basis.
In all these ways and more, Sony takes a multifaceted approach to human-centered design to deliver an inspiring user experience.
Representatives of product and service designers across the Sony Group meet to formulate UI design standards for interactions, use of words and icons on devices and screens, and so on. The knowledge gained through usability testing, the expertise of the product development departments, and specific examples of UX design methods are shared across the Group, as well. UI design standards and expertise are posted on Sony's internal portal site so that everyone in the Sony Group has access to them. This information is used in product and service development as Sony continues to work to enhance usability for customers.
Sony holds forums and seminars led by experts to increase employee understanding of human-centered design and accessibility. In September 2018, Sony invited individuals with visual impairments to speak to employees about their day-to-day lives and relationship with Sony products to help employees better understand the needs of people with visual impairments.
Ease of use for everyone — that is what accessibility means to Sony.
Specific examples of this approach to products and services are described on the Sony Accessibility and Usability page at the Sony website.
The site showcases Sony products and services that are more comfortable and easier for people to enjoy. We divided them into three categories based on the senses: "VISION ASSIST—Easy to see / convert to sound," "HEARING ASSIST—Easy to hear / convert to text," and "ACTION ASSIST—Easy to use / support operation."
Presenting examples of accessible Sony products and services in three categories
Sony participates in standardization efforts*1 to enhance accessibility, aiming to take a leading role in the industry.
In March 2019, as in the previous year, Sony took part in the CSUN Assistive Technology Conference, one of the largest international conferences on accessibility in the world, held in Anaheim, California. Sony introduced the accessibility functions of its products, including BRAVIA®, PlayStation®4, and the software Marvel's Spider-Man for PlayStation®4. In the same month, at South by Southwest (SXSW) 2019, held in Austin, Texas, Sony provided hands-on exhibits that could be enjoyed without relying on the sense of sight. For this booth, Sony Group creators irrespective of differences in abilities, gender, cultures and languages, adopted inclusive design*2 principles.
Sony also strives to reflect product feedback from diverse users. In developing televisions, Sony implements programs wherein users with visual impairments use products for a designated period of time and provide feedback to improve product design. In developing the system software for PlayStation®4, Sony Interactive Entertainment Inc. uses repeated cycles of user testing to improve the accuracy of the product's accessibility functions.
The Sony Group's effort to make its websites more accessible began with a set of Website Accessibility Guidelines issued on July 1, 2007. Over the years, the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 have become the international standard. Recognizing this, Sony replaced its guidelines with the Sony Group Website Accessibility Policy, which is based on WCAG2.0 on April 1, 2016. This policy also requires the Sony Group's external facing websites to comply within a specific period of time.
By designing and producing accessible websites based on the Sony Group Website Accessibility Policy, Sony is striving to improve and maintain the accessibility of all its websites so that every customer can enjoy a more user-friendly experience.
Sony Interactive Entertainment Inc. (SIE) aims to make games as popular as music, movies and broadcasting and has beendeveloping the PlayStation® business for users in all age groups.
Console game industry organizations have responded to the proliferation of new game genres by introducing rating systems for customers in Japan, the United States and Europe (CERO, ESRB and PEGI, respectively), based on games' target age groups. The U.S. system has operated for more than 20 years and won top marks from the public, not only for indicating age categories but also for being the first to add descriptions that detail the contents of a game. PEGI is endorsed by the European Commission as a paradigm of self-regulation in the entertainment industry. In Japan, measures are being promoted to make the system more effective, including, with the cooperation of retailers, the voluntary refusal to sell software rated by CERO for ages 18 and above to underage customers.
To regulate access by underage users, SIE has included a Parental Control function in PlayStation®4, PlayStation®3 and PlayStation®Vita. This function enables customers to adjust access levels and limit children's access only to appropriate software across the PlayStation® platform.
As Internet use begins at younger and younger ages and Web-connected non-computer devices such as smartphones and tablets proliferate, the impact of harmful websites on children has become a social concern. Internet service provider Sony Network Communications Inc. offers various security services, which protects customer devices from threats such as viruses, hacking, and phishing, to provide a safer environment for families to use the Internet.

Jim Campbell: Beef
Jim Campbell welcomed us, with all sincerity, to a safe space, promising nobody was going to be upset or traumatised, despite the subject matter. Having been through the mill of a broken engagement and a lifelong tussle with depression and desire for validation, of course he became a comedian…
He speaks about day-dreaming, which for him is not pleasurable, but catastrophising, imagining impossible worst-case outcomes that contribute to his anxiety. And this is the full-on medical variety, the 'whole-body pins and needles after a hangover', as he vividly puts it.
He provided a good patchwork of lengthy stories, which with a judicious edit would be as good to read in a column as they were to hear. Striving to be a better person and shake off his Campbell heritage (as he explained to the unaware, his clan did something nefarious a few centuries ago), he is bent on some kind of psychological atonement and self-improvement. Or at least that's the peg on which to hang the show.
It was far more fun than I have made it sound. Careering through bad relationships, a lack of structure in his face, and the pros and cons of anti-depressants, the show fairly zipped along.
This is not a cathartic, therapy show, even though he addressed some big subjects. It is lighthearted enough, but I felt it could have done with some variation of pace and rhythm. Just slow down a bit to let the material breathe and the laughter have some space.

Here is a story about Esther.
When I worked for a homeless charity, I was invited, alongside five other charities, to give a talk at a £4.5k per year private primary girls school to their final year students – 10 & 11 year olds. The teacher informed me that the children were going to select three charities to support for their summer fete. In full competition mode, I decided that it might help our chances if I took Esther, a female client whom I had known since she spoke at our carol concert.
We arrived on a warm day and I began speaking about the charity. The girls were politely fidgeting, but when I introduced Esther to tell her story, they were totally engrossed. After she spoke, I asked if there were any questions. Unsurprisingly, I wasn't asked about our CEO pay or how much we spent on admin costs; all of the questions were for Esther and after ten minutes, hands were still raised!
A few days later I got a package from the teacher with many letters addressed to Esther. There was also a note from the teacher telling me that the children had unanimously voted for us and that our charity was the only one that had brought a beneficiary to the school. The children had written letters to Esther without being asked, writing how they had changed their opinion of homelessness and wishing her well. We received £1,000 from the fete and in the five years since that talk, the school has given over £20,000. I'm certain that without Esther, we wouldn't have been selected as one of the three, never mind having that long term support!
Esther was overjoyed that she was able to help the charity in this way and it's humbling for me when she gives that same story as one of the reasons she was able to recover from the issues she had. This was my eureka moment in fundraising! I learnt many lessons from that day that will stay with me throughout my career.
Storytelling is a powerful tool. Science tells us this. When we listen to, or read, a character driven story, our brains flood with Oxytocin, which is the love hormone. I think it's safe to say our generosity is definitely up when we are feeling love.
I know, as fundraisers, we instinctively understand this, but do we try hard enough to get our beneficiaries to speak directly to our supporters? Are we satisfied with simply putting a case study on our materials? Is that enough? Do we write these case studies in the third person and the only voice our beneficiary might get are some quotes in speech marks?
To begin, we need to find the stories. They are there to be found and of course we can seek them and ask our beneficiaries. But stories can also come to us… if we know where to look!
- Stephen Sutton blogged about his life with cancer and the support he was getting from the teenage cancer trust and raised £5.5m for the charity.
- Zoella is a vlogger with millions of followers. She vlogged about her mental health issues. She is now a digital ambassador for Mind reaching new audiences.
- And who can forget Aylan Kurdi, the refugee child who was photographed on the beaches of Europe. His story changed perceptions of refugees and stimulated support for many charities working with refugees
It's not only beneficiaries who can speak on our behalf!
- We have our Staff – I subscribe to Medicin Sans Frontier's whatsapp service and most of their messages are links to blogs written by the doctors on the frontline and are the stories I am most engaged with.
- Our army of Volunteers – during volunteer week, I read many stories about why volunteers are committed to our causes. But volunteer stories are for all year, not just for volunteer week!
- And we have our fundraisers, in fact we especially have our fundraisers, who have great stories. In my role, I see many JustGiving pages that have incredible emotive and engaging content. These fundraisers are asking others to give and as all online platforms tell you, the personal story is key to a successful page.
As the old adage goes, 'people give to people' and never has this been more clearly demonstrated than recent viral campaigns. The Ice Bucket Challenge raised nearly £7m for the Motor Neurone Disease in three days and £8m was raised in six days for Cancer Research UK with their 'no make-up selfie'. But vitally, these campaigns were not driven by the charities, they just took advantage of the stories being shared and allowed people to take action.
- We also have our personal stories. Why do we work for the charity we do? Why do we work for charities at all? I used to talk to rotary clubs and because of the audience, I often spoke about my own prejudices against homelessness before I volunteered at Christmas and ended up working at a homeless charity.
I talk about beneficiaries, staff, volunteers and fundraisers as different categories, but there are many overlaps amongst these and it's important to recognise this and take advantage where possible. At the homeless charity, around 10% of service staff are ex homeless themselves and their stories become even more powerful as they vividly highlight the success of the charity.
We've chosen our stories, so how to communicate them?
- Public talks in schools and other groups are preferable for the best impact, but it's not always possible for charities to do this.
- Social media & other digital channels is an obvious option. And why not? It's easy, cheap, can be interactive, shareable and gives the largest potential exposure. Options include live Q&A/webcasts, blog posts & other case study material (in first person!)
- As much as possible, use video and/or picture content. Let's use videos to bring the story to life. If pictures tell a thousand words, videos must tell a million!
- Let's do this in as much of our stewardship journeys as possible. Do beneficiaries ever say thank you to fundraisers? Of course, if you're from an organisation that has traditionally had a sponsor a child or animal model, you've been doing this for years, but we now have technology to do this even better, more cost effectively and with a bigger reach.
We have the story and the channels, so what's the message?
This is where it can become complicated as we balance authenticity of the voice against controlling the message and having that charity 'tone of voice'. Of course, there are times we have to control the message to an extent, especially for big campaigns or adverts. But where we can, we should let the authentic voice shine. Remember, people give to people, or the cause, not the charity. We should not think of donors as giving or raising money for the charity to then spend on making the world better. Let's remember that donors give money to make the world better – we just enable that to happen by connecting those who want to change the world with those that can. Just this simple language change can connect the donor more to the cause. And if we can get this through beneficiaries talking directly to our donors, it's an even better connection.
Language is important. Once, when I spoke alongside a homeless client, he listened to me and as always, I asked for feedback. He told me everything was fine, but could we stop saying 'homeless people' and instead say 'people who are homeless' as he rightly wanted to be seen primarily as a person and homeless second.
Our beneficiaries are often faced by prejudices, stigma and stereotypes in society. By giving them a voice, they can breakdown these barriers. Just last week, Julia Unwin, the CEO of Joseph Rowntree Foundation said we must… 'enable the voice on those who live in poverty and to ensure that those voices are heard, and listened to. Not met with the oscillating insults of pity and scorn.'
And we need to do this now. We live in a new world in many ways and we know trust in charities has been dented in the past 18 months. We also know that many people don't trust experts anymore. But our beneficiaries are the authentic experts that people will listen to, so let's get them heard.
We have the most incredible stories in our organisations that we can use to sell our cause. They rarely exist in any other type of organisations and if we can give our beneficiaries a true voice we can not only help ourselves to get income, but help our beneficiaries feel valued and play our part in helping the wider public understand these issues we care so passionately about too.
It's our job to go out there and find our own Esther and give them a platform to be heard.

In Conversation with Amanda Eyre Ward
When Nina Collins entered her forties she found herself awash in a sea of hormones. As symptoms of perimenopause set in, she began to fear losing her health, looks, sexuality, sense of humor-perhaps all at once. Craving a place to discuss her questions and concerns, and finding none, Nina started a Facebook group with the ironic name, "What Would Virginia Woolf Do?," which has grown exponentially into a place where women-most with strong opinions and fierce senses of humor--have surprisingly candid, lively, and intimate conversations.
Mid-life is a time when women want to think about purpose, about how to be their best selves, and how to love themselves as they enter the second half of life. They yearn to acknowledge the nostalgia and sadness that comes with aging, but also want to revel in their hard-earned wisdom.
Part memoir and part resource on everything from fashion and skincare to sex and surviving the empty nest, What Would Virginia Woolf Do? is a frank and intimate conversation mixed with anecdotes and honesty, wrapped up in a literary joke. It's also a destination, a place where readers can nestle in and see what happens when women feel comfortable enough to get real with each other: defy the shame that the culture often throws their way, find solace and laugh out loud, and revel in this new phase of life.

I don't know if this is the right forum for my query. Anyway, I already have tried recording guitar before using USB guitar link. While I was browsing Lazado, I discovered 2 stuff that has the same price. One was a dedicated audio interface Behringer UM2 while the other one was the Behringer Xenyx 502 USB. Which among the two would you recommend for recording guitars and vocals? What are both their advantages and disadvantages. TIA!
Thank you so much. When I was about to click the checkout button in Lazada, a post in our local music FB page is selling a Behringer Xenyx q502USB almost half the price from the one in Lazada. Got it right away. Tried it last night and yes, 1 track lang siya for everything that you input there. Sadly, what happened next was, somebody posted an M-Audio USB interface which was priced cheaper than the price I got for the mixer. Sayang!
eh di bilin mo yung M-audio tas benta mo yung mixer.

ALLEN, TX – It has been a busy week or so for the Allen Americans with Vincent Arseneau signing with the Wichita Thunder, Casey Pierro-Zabotel signing with the Colorado Eagles, along with the announcement that Chris Crane and Tanner Eberle have signed to play in Allen for the 2016-17 season.
To top things off the Americans had a live signing at their open house event last Saturday as they welcomed back alternate captain Aaron Gens.
– The Allen roster is now up to eleven players including eight forwards (Chad Costello, JP LaFontaine, Dyson Stevenson, Kale Kerbashian, Kyle Neuber, Gary Steffes, Chris Crane, Tanner Eberle), two defensemen (Joel Chouinard & Aaron Gens) and one goalie (Riley Gill).
– Chris Crane scored 21 goals last season which placed him third on the team trailing only Chad Costello (24) and Gary Steffes (22). Crane played in only 41 games before having a season ending injury. His .51 goals per game average was the highest on the team.
– Tanner Eberle returns to Allen where he originally signed in the 2014-15 season. Tanner played just five games (2 goals 2 assists) before he was loaned to the Bridgeport Sound Tigers (AHL) and never returned. Last season he was scheduled to come back to Allen but signed a one way deal with the Iowa Wild (AHL). Let's hope the third time is a charm and Allen fans will be able see more of Eberle this season. Despite his lack of size (5'11" 185), Eberle's speed and ability to hit have made him an effective two-way player. If Tanner can stay healthy (he played in just 45 games last season) he will be a great addition for Allen.
– Aaron Gens returns for his third season with the Americans and the two time Kelly Cup champion is happy to be back. There was never any doubt on his return. When Gens was not on the qualifying offer list that came out end of June it was obvious he had already been signed. It just took a while for it to be officially announced. I had a chance to ask Aaron about his return, his off season, the Kelly Cup victory last year and how the roster is shaping up for next season.
Here is that interview:
– Coach Steve Martinson reports he has come to terms with several defenseman and is in the process of getting contracts signed and approved by the league. He is very pleased with how the roster is coming together. Martinson will return to Allen from his summer home in Rockford at the end of next week.
This will be the last ownership update for the foreseeable future for the simple reason that all potential deals have fallen by the wayside and the team will have the current owners for the upcoming season. You can never say with 100% certainty the team won't be sold because at the right price every team is for sale but the realistic answer is the team isn't for sale.
You may ask how will things be different for the upcoming season? I had a chance to meet Shawn Kuzmin this week. Shawn has been hired as the new CEO of Steven Brothers Sports Management and brings with him 20 years of sales, service and marketing experience working for some incredible brands including the Pittsburgh Pirates, Detroit Pistons and Florida Panthers. Shawn is responsible for leading the overall direction of all three Steven Brothers' owned ECHL teams (Allen, Tulsa, Wichita). From my brief conversation with Shawn it is clear he understands the challenges, issues and problems that must be dealt with in Allen in order to make the franchise as successful off the ice as it has been on the ice. I will have more details in a future blog post.
– It is that time when the Allen players that live in the DFW area will start getting together to skate a few times per week in preparation for training camp. Per the ECHL, September 29th is the first day players can report to camp and the 30th is the first day for on ice sessions.
– Each year there are always a lot of questions from fans why players don't return after winning a championship and it is important to remember the reasons are many and they don't always relate to what happens on the ice. While some players use the opportunity to make more money elsewhere (especially overseas) other players don't come back because they are not offered a contract. Factors such as veteran status, salary demands, housing and insurance costs, off ice behavior and even if a player is a right shot or left shot impact whether a player is offered a contract. The bottom line is there are many reasons players do not return and on ice performance is just one factor.
– The Americans are putting the final touches on the promotional schedule for the upcoming season for those that have an interest. It will be posted here when it is official.
DID YOU KNOW: In the last ten days there have been over 60 player announcements around the ECHL. Fort Wayne continues to lead the pack with 23 players already announced while Norfolk has yet to announce a single player.

and might have a job interview coming up next week and in preparation of that I went shopping today. I HATE shopping but I put together the outfit I wanted online, half of which I could rush-order, half of which was only available in-store so I went.
I have such a hard time making decisions and double hard when in a crowded noisy store, chosing between 2 pairs and then 2 sizes (the proper size that fits perfectly, or a size up and feels extra comfy? I went up) took me about an hour. AN HOUR.
It was horrible. BUT! I know I got the right pants because I've been wearing them since I got home and I love them.
That's how I know which item was the right buy: if I want to keep wearing it forever 💕
How about you?

MTV has never failed audiences in supplying some real WTF moments, and the premiere of Happyland was no exception. The entire first episode laid down the bricks for the truth bomb that was dropped at the end of the premiere, which was that the lead Happyland characters, Lucy and Ian, are siblings. Which is totally fine, kind of like a family reunion, right? Wrong, because Lucy and Ian had just kissed, minutes before Lucy found out their relation to each other. Oh, the tangled webs MTV weaves.
In case you weren't aware going into the premiere that these two were siblings — I guess it's been the show's selling point — you were probably already shipping "Lian" — Lucy and Ian's couple name that I made up — really hard. What wasn't to like? They had a fairytale meet cute; he was high, she was annoyed with him, he had glistening abs — everything was going so well for these two. But when we learned that Lucy's unknown dad is James Chandler, the CEO-type for Happyland and Ian's father, I wanted to offer these two a swig of Listerine, ASAP. So will these two get together?
I'm going to say no. It seems like Lucy is just as uncomfortable about kissing her brother as I am uncomfortable about her kissing her brother. In the season's preview, Lucy even blurts out that he is her brother as she and Ian are playing about to kiss as Prince and Princess. His reaction, "What!!!!" (OK, maybe not as many exclamation marks). So these two are totally going to go back to being platonic friends who play romantically involved characters at a theme park, right?
From the looks of the preview, it seems like any relationship that could have been forming between Ian and Lucy is dissolved immediately in the "you're my brother" moment. In fact, it seems like the show doesn't even revolve around Ian and Lucy as a couple/ their weird incest moment past the family reunion.
Hopefully Happyland uses this as a comedic "oops" moment, and leaves the incest at the park gates. There seems to be many more promising story lines to be told involving Lucy's relationship with her father, or if she'll ever get out of Dazzle — that is the town name, I kid you not — for her dreams to come true.

Loading Clock Preview...
"Wedding Present" Clock
Type : SevenSegmentWithColorGridBg
Description :
The clock's display is short and stocky. The clock has a small but comfortable amount of padding at the edges. There is a comfortable amount of space between the digits of the clock's display. The clock has an edge glow effect. The edge glow is so transparent that it is very subtle and barely noticeable. The color of the edge glow is white. It is very fat and extends close to the center, leaving a small window clear in the middle. The clock has a color grid effect as a background. The color at the top left corner is close to medium orchid, with a hint of medium purple and dark orchid. The color at the top right corner is close to dark violet, with a hint of blue violet and dark orchid. The color at the bottom left corner is close to dark turquoise, with a hint of deep sky blue and turquoise. The color at the bottom right corner is close to pale violet red, with a hint of light coral and dark salmon. The digits of the clock's display are made up of several segments. The digits are quite opaque, but it should be quite possible see what is beneath them. Their color is close to orchid, with a hint of violet and hot pink. There is no gap between the digit segments. The digit segments have a drop shadow. The direction of the shadow is close to south. The shadow is offset by a fair amount. The shadow is blurred a lot, so that it blends nicely into the surroundings. The shadow has a small amount of spread, adding a bit of strength. The color of the shadow is black. The shadow is almost completely opaque, and should feel rather strong
The SevenSegmentWithColorGridBg clock combines a traditional seven segment display for the digits, a four corner color smooth gradient background, and an edge glow with themeable color, thickness, and opacity. The individual segments of the digits support theming by color, opacity, segment gap, and a drop shadow. Additionally, digit spacing, overall clock aspect ratio, and edge padding can also be themed.

Saw The Dark Knight Rises finally. Not as good as the last one, but very good all the same. Lots of nods to canon while feeling true to the last two movies. My favorite version of the Bat is still the one from Arkham Asylum and City, but the Bale version isn't bad at all.
Been watching a lot of Olympics, too.
Haven't posted much of anything lately. I suppose I should start slow. What about Jared Diamond complaining about Romney's misuse of Guns, Germs, and Steel? Pretty funny. It would seem Romney, already quietly policy-free in the states, has no luck opening his mouth overseas, either. He'll get a bounce from Tampa, and Obama will get a bounce from Charlotte, and these should cancel each other out.

Korfball is played by two teams of 8 (4 men, 4 women) on a rectangular court roughly the same size as a basketball court.
Action consists almost entirely of passing from hand to hand. Passing and movement forms the basis of the game with attackers using changes of speed and direction, combined with team tactics to try to lose their defenders in order to create a shooting chance.

Corporate Australia is facing criticism from the Liberal Party for not providing greater support.
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull reportedly told a group of chief executives at a private dinner in Sydney on Monday night they needed to do more in terms of donating to the party and getting behind the government's pro-business policies.
The Australian Financial Review reported one source saying the prime minister had been "testy" about the point and was "determined to pursue anyone who should be putting their hand in their pocket".
Mr Turnbull was forced to chip in $1.8 million of his own money to keep the Liberals' 2016 election campaign afloat.
Liberal MP Jason Falinski said Mr Turnbull had a right to be angry with corporate Australia.
"The business community has just simply vacated the field," the NSW MP and former Liberal executive member told Sky News on Wednesday.
"What is business doing in terms of arguing against the bank (royal commission), arguing for business tax cuts, arguing for industrial relations reform - I can't see it."
He said the "massive behemoths" in the banking sector were not making the case for better financial regulation.
The problem had existed since the 2007 election, which was won by Labor on the back of a multi-million-dollar union campaign against the Howard government's WorkChoices laws.
"In the 2007 elections unions put in tens of millions of dollars into the campaign and where were they (business)? Still arguing about whether they should put in $50,000. Nothing has improved. It's just go worse," Mr Falinski said.

At the heart of the CAPM lies the concept of systematic risk. The systematic risk of a security is that component of the total risk of the security that is explained by market risk. This study investigates the econometrics of the CAPM. In particular, it analyses Granger causality from market returns to security returns, the absence of which would weaken the significance of beta, and undermine the foundations of the CAPM.
