Hey cherubs, have any of you heard about this product, Baby Foot? It's a mask-like treatment for your feet that are supposed to make them soft as a baby's bottom (or foot). Anyway, I ordered some off Amazon and I plan on giving it a try and figured I'd document it on here for those of you who, like me, are both amazed and repulsed in the best way by gross shit like all of the dead skin on your feet sloughing off in huge sheets.
Anyway, I fully expect the results of mine to be fantastically horrific. I have gross feet, the product of being a dancer for the majority of my life. Now, this won't fix the wonkiness from losing so many toenails, but I'm hoping it will make a dent in the callouses and I'll be ready for sandal weather!
Okay, so I have an event to go to this coming weekend, so I won't be applying it until next week, but I just wanted to share some of the descriptions of the process and the hilariously bad translation.
First, the packaging clearly states "Not authorized for sale or import to the United States nor the other countries." Oops. No matter. I wonder what "the other countries" are?
Then they have all of these descriptions of the types of peeling you will se. My favorite? "Zurumuke Peeling: Zurumuke means peeling like molting of the animal, it is like a horror film so that you do not feel showing it to anybody. However, because it totally depends on how much dead skin is accumulated on foot, there is a case when peeling at the 2nd time is not radical as the 1st time of Zurumuke…"
Omg, I'm so ready for my radical Zurumuke peeling. Let the horror film begin

Hello !

The national charity for the grocery industry is organising GroceryAid Day, an awareness initiative set to take place for the first time on Tuesday 26th February 2019. The annual event aims to make everybody who works in the grocery industry aware of the practical, emotional and financial support available to them.
Helen Kershaw, Marketing Communications Manager said: "Awareness is a primary focus for the charity because despite helping over 14,500 colleagues last year we know many more remain unaware of our services. We are asking all our supporters on 26th February to hold awareness activities telling their colleagues about how we can help when a crisis hits. They can put up posters, hand out materials, share our video, feature us on their intranet and of course shout about us on social media with #GroceryAidDay."
To show appreciation for the support received from the industry over the previous twelve months, the charity will also use the day to announce their 2019 GroceryAid Awards. Kershaw continued; "Our supporters are the lifeblood of the charity and it's important for us to recognise the awareness, fundraising and volunteering contribution that they make to our cause."

Google isn't just a big spender when it comes to acquiring startups. The company has purchased the building holding its main New York City office for a reported $1.9 billion.
A post on the official company blog announced the purchase this morning, describing it as "a great real estate investment in a thriving neighborhood and a fantastic city." Google isn't revealing the price, but The New York Post reports that it's a $1.77 billion cash deal and that with taxes and fees, the company's total cost will be $1.9 billion.
Google's NYC office includes engineers and its North American sales team. The company says its presence in the city began with a single ad person in 2000, and then it moved into its current office at 111 Eighth Ave in 2006. There are now 2,000 Googlers in New York, Google says, and it's still hiring.
One reason the company may want to expand its presence is an increased emphasis on display advertising (as opposed to the simple text links that show up alongside its search results). The company recently said it's on-track to make $2.5 billion from display ads per year.
Facebook, meanwhile, is also building its New York presence. We've heard it has leased two floors on Madison Avenue, the address traditionally associated with the advertising industry.

What happens when a veteran becomes stuck even after attending regular counseling sessions to cope with persistent post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms? My colleagues and I at the Menlo Park Veterans Administration Health Care System (VAHCS) implemented a new program several years ago that used art as a therapeutic intervention to process recovery themes for veterans with a mental health disorder. The Veteran Photo Recovery Project engages veterans with a mental health diagnosis such as PTSD to build a six image portfolio of photographs that create a narrative about a personal recovery theme. During the six week workshop, veterans can use process of taking pictures to spark discussions with their peers about trauma, mental health challenges, and ways to sustain recovery. The experience of using images as a reflection tool has been beneficial for veterans from all recent war time periods and as one female veteran insightfully stated, "Repression is the problem. Expression is the cure."
When Ming Lai of Humanist Films read about the Veteran Photo Recovery Project in 2013, he appreciated how powerful photographs can be to inspire change. When he learned that photography was being used to help heal veterans with PTSD, military sexual trauma, and other mental illnesses, he was deeply moved. He decided to make a feature documentary about U.S. military veterans from the Vietnam War to Operation Desert Storm to Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom who were using innovative therapeutic photography techniques to treat their mental health issues.
After two years of dedicated work to interview veterans and providers involved with the program, "Visions of Warriors" is now in post-production. The funds acquired from the Stanford Medicine & the Muse Program grant will be used to help pay for expensive post-production costs. Most of all, this grant will help the director and his associates to finish this important project for veterans.
The co-founders of the Veteran Photo Recovery Project, Ming Lai, staff at Humanist Films, and I hope to raise awareness about the rise of veteran mental illness and the power of innovative photography therapy to treat it.

Calling all Teaching Artists in Washington State!
July 10, 2013
Calling all Teaching Artists in Washington State!
Applications are now being accepted for the third cohort of the
Washington State Teaching Artist Training Lab
- application deadline is
July 24
"The depth of planning and hours to make this a purposeful and
quality training was amazing. I cannot say enough about how this
will change my arts education practice."
-TAT Lab graduate, 2013
The Teaching Artist Training Lab (TAT Lab) is a nationally recognized 8-month professional development program for teaching artists working in all artistic disciplines, in all parts of Washington State. The program focus is on work in K-12 public schools, and how teaching artists can best support arts learning as part of basic education.
The TAT Lab is appropriate for mid-career and experienced teaching artists looking to enhance or refresh their practice, as well as newer teaching artists seeking foundational knowledge. An application is required; the cohort will be limited to 36 participants. Tuition scholarships are available, as well as travel support for teaching artists coming from outside the Puget Sound region.
The TAT Lab program includes three in-person training sessions in Seattle, each of which is 2-3 days long, and a series of six 90-minute teleconferences. Participants will complete reading assignments, develop a written learning plan, and receive ongoing feedback and support from teaching artist peers and a faculty mentor.
For more information and application instructions, please

, or contact Lisa Jaret at
Arts Organization Program Managers and Education Directors:
If your organization hires teaching artists, please spread the word about TAT Lab, and consider investing in your work with full or partial sponsorship for one of your teaching artists.
Click here for an organizational sponsorship form.
"TAT Lab clarified and brought into focus the reasons that I teach
the way I do, and the benefits of teaching artists to education as
a whole. It made me more intentional on why I do what I do, which
in turn, amplifies the rewards."
-TAT Lab graduate, 2012
The Washington State TAT Lab is presented by the Washington State Arts Commission, the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, and Seattle Repertory Theatre, in collaboration with the National Endowment for the Arts, the Seattle Office of Arts and Culture, 4Culture, and Pacific Northwest Ballet.

I am definitely a Type A personality, always rushing around, trying to do too much, not good at just lying on the beach. But I'm so thankful for everything I have: wonderfully supportive parents and sisters, the best husband in the world, terrific students I love teaching and hanging out with, and above all, my two amazing daughters.
When I'm not the Tiger Mom, I'm a professor at Yale Law School, and if one thing is clear to me from years of teaching, it's that there are many ways to produce fabulous kids. I have amazing students; some of them have strict parents, others have lenient parents, and many come from family situations that defy easy description.
A lot of parents today are terrified that something they say to their children might make them 'feel bad.' But, hey, if they've done something wrong, they should feel bad. Kids with a sense of responsibility, not entitlement, who know when to experience gratitude and humility, will be better at navigating the social shoals of college.
For my senior prom, my father finally said I could go - as long as I was home by 9 P.M.! That was around the time that most people were heading out. When I was little I was so mad at them all the time. 'Why can't I do this?' 'Why are there so many rules?' But looking back now, my parents gave me the foundation to have so many choices in life.
I was raised, myself, by extremely strict but also extremely loving Chinese immigrant parents. To this day, I believe that their having high expectations for me, coupled with love, was the greatest gift that anyone's ever given me. And so that's why, even though my husband is not Chinese, I try to raise my own two daughters the same way.
Parenting is the hardest thing I have ever done. I tried to find the balance between the strict, traditional Chinese way I was raised, which I think can be too harsh, and what I see as a tendency in the West to be too permissive and indulgent. If I could do it all again, I would, with some adjustments.
Happiness is not always through success. Equally, the constant pursuit of success is sure unhappiness. But we have to find the balance. My own thoughts are that parenting is very personal. And we all feel enormous insecurity about parenting. What are they going to think of us 20 years down the line?

Manifesting Positivity and Love in a Chaotic World
In a chaotic world, staying positive is difficult to do. It's just a bummer that it's during these dark times, positivity and love are the only things that can turn things around.
To help us enhance the positivity and love in our lives, Dr. Kelly Neff writes us this beautiful article on this Wake-Up World blog post. It's an empowering text that you'd definitely draw some inspiration from.
In it, she talks about letting go of the negativity through forgiveness, compassion, and changing attitudes toward failure. It's surely going to hit a cord as these are universal subjects that everyone has had at least some experience in.
We at Believe Magazine are grateful to have read this beautifully written article and we wish to share it with you so that you too can be a little bit enlightened today.

I wish to comment on our mammalian nature, our perverse enjoyment in regards violent spectacle.
Months ago I bought tickets to the UFC event in Brisbane. I bought the tickets ostensibly as a birthday present for Angelo. It was money well spent.
If you like Blood Sport.
If you like the roar of the crowd. The heart-thumping excitement as, just when it appears "over", it's all back up on the feet with fists flying, again.
Baying like blood thirsty hounds, we all howled and whistled and yelled ourselves hoarse.
I dig blood sports.
Hunt v Bigfoot… A historic fight. An adrenalin rush. A grand afternoon filled with Blood Sport.

I'm an editor for AccessoryDwellings.org, a site edited by 3 volunteers in Portland, Oregon. It is a one-stop source about accessory dwelling units, multigenerational homes, laneway houses, ADUs, granny flats, in-law units.
Here's some of my latest posts on that website.
- Incremental Updates for ADUs for 2020 January 8, 2020 3:00 pmHere's some notable stuff for those interested in ADU minutiae in the Portland market and beyond. It's a mashup of information and updates that will be of interest to ADU advocates: ADU Permit Numbers, MLS, Mapping ADUs, SDCs, ADU events in April 2020, Summit videos, oh my.
- ADU Advocates' Unsanctioned Guidance for Oregon Cities Updating Local ADU Regulations by January, 2020 to Comply with HB 2001 Statute November 18, 2019 3:00 pmTwo of the most common "poison pills" in ADU standards will be prohibited statewide in Oregon beginning in January, 2020, making earlier ADU legislation significantly more effective. Oregon House Bill 2001 (HB 2001) was signed into law on August 8th, 2019. While HB 2001 rightly claimed headlines for expanding missing middle housing options, it also included some specific requirements for ADUs.
- ADU Legislative Initiatives- History in the Making (Part III) September 18, 2019 2:00 pmSeveral significant bills passed through the legislative process in California last week. This legislation that passed in CA is major and will help usher ADUs out of the dark ages.
- ADU Legislative Initiatives- History in the Making (Part II) August 22, 2019 2:00 pmAs reviewed in my first post on this topical thread, significant and progressive legislative and regulatory ADU code overhauls are occuring at quickening pace in jurisdictions up and down the west coast. I've been tracking ADU regulatory reform fairly closely for a decade, and there hasn't ever been a time period where ADUs have been gaining as much national traction as they are now.
- Announcing the next Build Small Live Large Summit and the next ADU Academy. November 7th and 8th, 2019. Portland, Oregon. August 11, 2019 3:00 pmTwo national, back-to-back events on November 7th and 8th in Portland, Oregon
- Recap of 2019 ADU Tour July 23, 2019 3:00 pmThe ADU Tour in June was a blast. Approximately 800 people attended. We've made the 17 project profiles public. You can find them here.
- ADU Legislative Initiatives- History in the Making (Part I) July 8, 2019 2:30 pmThe 24-hour period from the afternoon of Sunday, June 29th- afternoon Monday, June 30th, 2019, was an important day for ADUs. In the future, urban planners will point to that day as a signature moment for an era of deregulation and liberalization of codes for ADUs.
- ADU Development Costs Keep Going Up May 28, 2019 3:00 pmI've updated an extensive post about ADU development costs here. These updates are based new cost numbers that just came in from the upcoming 2019 ADU Tour in Portland, which serves as a repository of current and active primary source data for cost estimates. It turns out that current primary source data is critical when it comes to talking about the costs of ADUs, because the development cost numbers here keep escalating rapidly.
- 2019 is the Year of ADU Financing Innovation May 16, 2019 3:30 pmFinancing ADUs has remained a major challenge. But, in the future, 2019 will always be thought of as the year of ADU financing innovation. On April 29th, Portland State University convened a meeting in Washington, D.C to help flesh out some of the innovative programs that are being developed to finance ADUs.
- Seventeen ADUs! April 29, 2019 2:30 pmI don't know what I was thinking.I couldn't help myself. I kept saying yes; I couldn't resist. Now, look what I've done.Maybe you're wondering what am I talking about. I'm talking about this year's ADU Tour, of course!

KB00022471: Test Classification & Extraction Error
July 16, 2018
|In Classification, Extraction
|By lyekuenneoh
KB Article #: KB00022471
Topic/Category: Batch Class
Applies to: Prior to v220.127.116.11
Issue: When the user is using the document assembler script and tries to use the Test Classification / Test Extraction feature on Batch Class, the user is getting a pop-up error as seen below due to the script reading Document object passed in execute method and extracting batch details. When processing a batch, this works perfectly fine, but when using this feature on the batch class, user gets an error.
Root Cause: Value of BatchLocalPath property is passed as blank in the document object which is causing the issue in the user's script as their script is dependent on file system operations.
If the user's script has system-folder/BI dependent operations, then the user can remove the scripting plugin from the workflow while performing test classification & extraction.

The number of mortgages approved for house purchase hit its highest level since March 2008 last month. High street banks approved 35,235 mortgages for new house purchases in June, up 64% on the year, figures from the British Bankers' Association show. But this is lower than the monthly average of 61,500 over the past 12 years.

Vitamin E's crucial function is to protect lipids from free radical damage and oxidation. Lipids are the building blocks of cell membranes and other important biochemical structures. Free radicals are unstable, chemically incomplete substances that are highly reactive, damaging substances in the body such as enzymes. Exposure to air pollution, cigarette smoke, and strong sunlight can increase the formation of free radicals.
Vitamin E consists of several compounds known as mixed tocopherols, including alpha, beta, delta, and gamma tocopherol. Alpha tocopherol, the primary ingredient in most vitamin E supplements, is a well known and researched antioxidant. Tocotrienols are also a part of vitamin E family. It is thought that tocotrienols are up to 50 times more potent than tocopherols as antioxidants.
Vital skin cells need to be protected by antioxidants. But you can't buy vitamin E products blindly. While synthetic vitamins are often as effective as natural ones, for Vitamin E this does not appear to be the case. It's believed that synthetic Vitamin E is only half as effective the natural one. Synthetic Vitamin E often contain a less effective form of tocopherols and tocotrienols so it's advised to use the natural form unless the company expressly states that their Vitamin E contains D form only. Finally, make sure to get the one with the balanced mixture of tocopherols and tocotrienols.

School Forecast for:
Friday January 5th
Last Updated: 12PM Thursday January 4, 2018
Delay No School Early Dismissal
30% 10%
The Forecast
12PM Thursday
As of noon, a strong band of snow has developed and is pushing into the Hudson Valley. This band, depicted on radar as a dark blue streak from New York City to Springfield to Portland, will move through Dutchess County and likely parts of Ulster County. Snowfall rates in the band may approach or exceed one inch per hour in locations affected by the band. Two inches has fallen in Kingston since 7am and there are about four hours left to go.
The storm will pull very cold air into the region tonight, dropping windchills below zero. High temperatures tomorrow in Kingston will struggle to reach 10 degrees. In the past 13 years, Kingston has never cancelled/delayed school due to cold temperatures, but between the aftermath of today's snow and tomorrow's frigid temperatures, it is possible that tomorrow's classes could be affected. Out toward Ellenville and Onteora, windchill warnings are in effect for even colder potential windchills, and there is a decent chance of school impacts in these districts tomorrow.
An update will be posted this evening.
Image caption: noon radar depicts show falling across the northeast. A band of dark blue snow is across parts of the region just to the east (right) of Kingston. Click radar image for larger and clearer versions.
10PM Wednesday
Significant coastal storm is currently spreading snow into Maryland and Virginia. Snow will continue to work its way up the coast, and move into New York tomorrow morning. At this time, Kingstonsnows is looking for snow to begin between 5am and 7am then continue through about 3pm. Expecting total accumulations around 2 to 3 inches. While the National Weather Service is predicting about the same amount of snow, it should be noted that their latest products call for the snow to begin falling as early as 1am. We'll see what happens, but regardless of start time, travel impacts are likely tomorrow. The current forecast favors a cancellation, but if the later start times do verify, then it would not be a surprise to see districts slip in an early dismissal.
10AM Wednesday
The storm that will impact us tomorrow has begun forming off the Florida coast, and multiple locations in north Florida have been reporting accumulating snowfall this morning. Over the next 36 hours, the storm will spread snow up the entire Atlantic coast all the way to Canada. Overnight trends have favored the storm developing slightly stronger and closer to the coast than previously forecasted, suggesting a greater impact here in the Mid-Hudson Valley. The forecast now calls for snow totals around three inches in Kingston. Despite being within 24 hours of the start time, the forecast remains sensitive to relatively small shifts in the storm track, and the "extreme range" has been updated to better reflect this. Additionally, an earlier arrival time for the snow is now expected with snow possibly developing before daybreak. Overall, the current forecast calls for a respectable storm with impacts throughout the day tomorrow. Once the storm clears out on Friday, a return to bitterly cold temperatures will be the main story heading into the weekend. Temperatures are not likely to even reach the teens on Friday and Saturday.
Click either forecast image for larger and clearer versions.
10PM Tuesday
Overall, the forecast remains about the same as this morning. A nor'easter will move up the Atlantic Coast Wednesday into Thursday. This will produce a plowable snow along the immediate coastline. Here in the MidHudson Valley, we will be on the outer edge of the storm. At this time it remains likely that we will see at least some snow on Thursday, but these kinds of forecasts are sensitive to relatively small shifts in the storm track, and we could still see anything from just a light coating of snow to a few inches. The Kingstonsnows forecast continues to anticipate about an inch of snow, with the potential for up to about three inches. Assuming that it does snow in Kingston, any school impacts will depend on the start time. The next update is planned for tomorrow at 10AM.
Click forecast image for larger and clearer version.
7AM Tuesday
Since yesterday's update, there has been an increasing probability that the Hudson Valley will see accumulating snow on Thursday. This potential snow will be related to a developing nor'easter that seems poised to bring a swath of snow from northern Florida all the way to Maine. At this time, Ulster County looks to be on the edge of the storm, and any snow accumulations should be limited to a few inches… similar to the other light events that we have seen this winter. This being said, the likely timing of Thursday between 9AM and 4PM would likely lead to school impacts. Forecast updates are currently planned for 10pm tonight and 10am tomorrow.

Winter update
Updated: January 1, 2018
Here in the Hudson Valley, our snow season typically runs from late November to mid March, and so early January roughly marks the end of the first third of the season. So far this year, we've seen a pretty average winter. Just over 10 inches of snow fell last month and the season total stands at 10.6 inches. This is 8 inches less than we had by the start of 2017, but is almost exactly the 13-year average. Last month, Kingstonsnows forecasted that we would see about 48 inches of snow this winter which is slightly above average. This forecast remains valid.

What about this cold?!
The average temperature in Poughkeepsie last month was 27.8 degrees. This is 3.3 degrees below normal, and is colder than 75% of Decembers on record. It was the coldest December since 2006. The real story has been the frigid temperatures of the past week. Since Christmas Day the average temperature has only been 13.5 degrees. This is by far the coldest it has been between Christmas and New Years since records began in 1949, but in context of the entire winter, it does not even rank in the top 100 coldest 7-day stretches on record. The cold will continue for about another week with the extended forecast suggesting a moderation toward normal or above normal temperatures by the end of next week, and continuing into the second half of January.
The reason for the cold is that the bubble of arctic air that is traditionally located over the north pole has migrated southward. It is not uncommon for this to happen. Sometimes this bubble of cold air shifts over Asia, other times it shifts over North America. While these cold air shifts may make local weather unbearable, the bigger picture is that the global as a whole continues to run a fever with most areas warmer than normal. Global temperatures have been steadily increasing since the early 1900s, and 2017 will rank as either the 2nd or 3rd warmest year in modern human history when all the data is compiled. The warmest year on record was 2016.

DA Member of Parliament Alf Lees said on Friday that the emergency provision of R17.6bn to Eskom in terms of section 16 of the Public Finance Management Act was a clear indication of the power utility's dire financial situation.
This after Finance Minister Tito Mboweni was forced to write to Parliament to access funds when the China Development Bank (CDB) failed to release an amount of R7bn from a $2.5bn facility that the utility and the bank concluded last year.
The CDB funds did not arrive on time because the bank was "unfortunately unable to timeously execute this planned drawdown due to its central bank exchange control requirements".
This sent Eskom and National Treasury scrambling for funds at the 11th hour to ensure that Eskom was able to meet its obligations at the end of March.
Government confident Eskom's China funds will come through by month-end
"It is extraordinary that this crisis was so obvious that even Minister Mboweni was forced to include a current year bailout for Eskom of R23bn but failed to introduce a special appropriation bill to ensure the funds were available for Eskom to keep the lights on."
Mboweni, however, said in his report to the legislature that at the time when he delivered his Budget speech in February, it was anticipated that Eskom would continue to raise the required funding, which is supported by Government guarantees, until Parliament was constituted following the elections.
"However, by the end of March 2019, it became evident that Eskom was experiencing difficulties in raising the required funding as well as drawing down on existing facilities," Mboweni wrote to the legislature.
Mboweni said as a contingency measure, Eskom requested Absa Capital to provide a R3bn bridging facility, which was supported by a government guarantee.
Currently government's exposure to Eskom in terms of guarantees is R281bn.
READ: Treasury, Absa in 11th-hour Eskom bailout
The Department of Public Enterprises has since expressed confidence that the money from the CDB will arrive by month's end. Numerous attempts to reach Eskom for comment have failed.
Eskom is saddled with R419bn of debt and isn't selling enough power to cover its interest payments and operating costs, a legacy of years of mismanagement and cost overruns on new plants, among other things.
The embattled utility has previously also had to implement days of load shedding as it struggled to keep the lights on.

5 Things You Must Do If You Want To Create a First Aid Kit For Your Family
Additional Reading
1. Accidents and medical emergencies in the home happen frequently. Maybe more frequently than we realize.
Statistics show a fatal injury occurs every 18 minutes in homes across America and every 4 seconds a disabling injury could occur. Accidents occur from falls, fire, burns, choking and poisoning.
2. Every home should have at least one first Aid Kit that is well stocked and readily available.
First Aid Kits are used most often for minor injuries such as cuts, sunburns or bites. Having a well stocked First Aid Kit available can save someone's life in a serious accident.
3. A First Aid Kit won't be any good to you if you don't know how to use it.
Make sure you have a guide in your kit from a reliable source. It should have the latest medical advice and be easy to understand, particularly under stress.
4. There are 5 categories that are imperative in your First Aid Kit
5. Instruments
Pointed tweezers for removing splinters Disposable latex or non latex gloves Small rounded-tipped scissors for cutting tape, clothes or bandages Breathing Barrier for performing CPR Thermometer-either digital or mercury Ice Bag Eye Patches Oral medicine syringe Bandages that are good quality. A variety of all sizes to dress a variety of wounds One dozen individually wrapped sterile gauze pads 2" X 2" Six non-stick gauze bandages Six individually wrapped sterile gauze pads 4" X 4" One roll 2" gauze bandage One roll 5" gauze bandage Elastic bandages Triangular Bandages Adhesive Tape
6. Antiseptics
Antiseptics such as Hydrogen Peroxide to kill germs. Antibacterial cream or ointment . This is good for cuts ,scrapes and insect bites.
7. Medicines
Over the counter medicines such as antihistamine cough suppressant aspirin syrup of ipecac in case someone ingests poison. This should only be used after calling the Poison Control Center first.
8. Keeping your First Aid Kit Updated
Your First Aid Kit should be checked once a year, possibly the same day you check your smoke detectors, to be sure it is fully stocked and nothing has expired. Make sure you always make a note of anything you use out of your Kit so it can easily be replaced.
9. Storing your First Aid Kit
Make sure you store your First Aid Kit in a tote bag or plastic container that will keep your kit clean and dry and easily accessible in your home. It is recommended to have one on each floor in your home and workshop. Make sure everyone in your home knows where they are and how to use it. It could save your families life.

Can any man really lower his cholesterol?
Lower cholesterol levels should be a health concern of every man.
Heart disease is the number one killer among so-called healthy men in Western world today. More than 40% of men will die from it.
What is particularly disturbing is that strokes and heart attacks are becoming much more common in younger men.
It seems that younger men, even those who look physically like they are in good health, are dying because they can't lower cholesterol levels.

Chicken Soup for the Soul: All in the Family (Giveaway)
Just in time for the holidays, I'm pleased to announce the publication of my new book, Chicken Soup for the Soul: All in the Family! If you're familiar with the Chicken Soup for the Soul series, you know that they have many great books for fathers, mothers, sisters, grandmothers and other family members. So, what makes this book different? It's weird!
Yes, this book is a lot "edgier" than other Chicken Soup for the Soul books because we were really looking for stories that showed how dysfunctional most of our families are. We wanted to know about people's quirky, strange, outrageous and just plain odd relatives. We didn't want to hear about the granny who knitted scarves for her family. We wanted to hear about the granny who drives a motorcycle and sports tattoos! There's a very good reason why this book's subtitle is: 101 Incredible Stories About Our Funny, Quirky, Lovable, and "Dysfunctional" Families!
But beware! You may even find that Chicken Soup for the Soul: All in the Family represents YOUR FAMILY! This collection of 101 stories highlights wacky yet lovable relatives, holiday meltdowns, funny foibles, and incredible in-laws, along with more serious stories about abuse, control freaks, and flare-ups. If you're looking for a great holiday gift for the people in your family, this book definitely fits the bill.

My 4 year old called her brother a name...can't remember now what it was. Anyway, my husband called her in to ask her if she did something she'd like to tell us about. After about a minute of her saying "umm, umm", my husband told her what we knew. She then proceeds to tell us, "Well, I don't remember that coming out of my mouth.". She was completely serious too!!ReplyDelete
We have a relative who thought that 2 Cornish Game Hens and a 6oz, can of peas would be enough to feed 10 people for Thanksgiving dinner. The same relative was assigned to bring a birthday cake for her sister's B-day party. She showed up with a cake mix, handed the box to her sister and asked her to make it.ReplyDelete
Mary, your story is hilarious. You should submit it for the upcoming Chicken Soup book: Family Matters. http://www.chickensoup.comReplyDelete

I guess my wackiest family member would be my sister. She borrows and doesn't return, lies and believes her lies, and oh, how painful the rest of the stories are!ReplyDelete
My family and my sister's family believe that most of the family members should remain at the table until everyone is finished eating their meal! That is, except for the youngest family members. My sister's kind and delightful mother-in-law not only talked a lot during the meal, but ate very slowly! She would also scrape her plate while eating, so that it almost looked immaculate after she finished eating. One time, I can remember literally sitting at the table for 45 minutes waiting for her to be done eating. Many thanks for a chance to win your wonderful book! CindiReplyDelete

My whole family put the "fun" in dysfunctional. My husband (then boyfriend) first met my mother and other family at the park. When he came upon them, my mother and nephew and brother and others were playing their own form of football. They were covered in aluminum foil for protection and using a shoe for a football. They're crazy, but I love 'em.ReplyDelete

My mother-in-law is pretty wacky. The latest is that she insists on hosting Thanksgiving this year and cooking the turkey plus most of the other food. The problem is she just moved into a rental home with no stove and is refusing to buy one. She says she can cook on her small camping-style stoves and that quote "It'll be fun!"ReplyDelete

My favorite memory of Thanksgiving is when I had my own first dinner, in my own home, with my own disasters! The turkey was frozen in the middle, my husband dropped the cake, my aunt and the side dishes were late, and upon entering my mom let the dog out the front door. I went after the dog, 6 months pregnant, and everyone followed as I waddled. I certainly wasn't laughing that day, but I can't help but think on how our expectations sometimes make us forget why we celebrate. It was all those people making me crazy that I couldn't live without today. Thankful, thankful, thankful, and today I can cook a turkey well for my even larger blessing of a family.ReplyDelete

About VFZ™ Mounts:
VFZ™ is a new theory in the concept of clamping accessories to MIL-STD-1913 rails. Instead of using a horizontal cross-bolt, the VFZ™ uses a vertical bolt that draws up a clamping foot against the lower angle of the rail, seating the mount similarly to a fully-closed LaRue lever. Once installed on the firearm, index marks allow the user to remove the mount, then reattach to the same tension, providing unprecedented return to zero for a non-QD-levered mount. The unique vertical alignment of the clamp allows components that are structurally stronger than traditional cross-bolt designs.
Why should I select VFZ™ Mounts instead of a QD Lever Mount?:
If you intend to leave an optic or accessory on a rail for the life of the rifle, the VFZ™ option is for you. The VFZ™ is intended as a longer-term, semi-permanent mounting alternative to our well-known Speed Levers. While both mounts will allow the user to remove the mount from the weapon, reinstall it in the same position, and return to zero, the VFZ™ mount is intended for users that will not need to constantly remove and install their mounts (especially in the field).

MOA Green Crosshair Reticle (Model # RS24-C-1900001)
When used at 4x the MOA Crosshair reticle can be used as your personal BDC reticle. Set up your firearm and cartridge in a ballistic calculator and you know exactly where your holdovers should be with the 2 MOA tick mark crosshair. Or use the MOA reticle pattern to size and range your target.
The LED reticle illumination comes in green allowing you to use Trijicon's Bindon Aiming Concept (BAC), or to give you that added contrast to your target. Use our 30mm rings or quick release mount to match your firearms platform.

Atlanta, GA – The mayor of Atlanta and that city's police chief pulled all their police officers off of the federal task forces on which they were serving after a request to have the officers wear bodycams was declined.
The impetus for the decision was a shooting that occurred during a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) task force service of a warrant in January, WXIA reported.
Jimmy Atchison, 21, was fatally shot by Atlanta Police Officer Sung Kim during that raid.
Atchison was wanted on an armed robbery charge and was hiding in a closet at his apartment complex when he was killed, WGCL reported.
Afterward, Atlanta Mayor Keisha Bottoms and Police Chief Erika Shields insisted that, in the future, all Atlanta police officers wear bodycams during all operations, WXIA reported.
But federal agencies informed Atlanta officials that officers on task forces would not be allowed to wear bodycams.
"The Mayor and the Chief have insisted that Atlanta Police officers on that task force – as well as the Drug Enforcement Administration's High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area and the U.S. Marshal's Southeast Regional Task Force – wear body-worn cameras when on duty," the Atlanta Police Department said in a statement to WGCL. "When it was made clear that APD officers would not be allowed to wear body-worn cameras while serving on these task forces, the decision was made to pull them from those duties."
In the wake of that officer-involved shooting, the police chief called for new bodycam policies with stricter penalties for officers who do not activate their bodycams, according to WXIA.
Chief Shields proposed a 16-day suspension for the first offense of failing to activate a bodycam and termination for a second offense.
"Mayor Bottoms and Chief Shields have said repeatedly that they believe in creating a culture of transparency at APD through widespread deployment and use of body-worn cameras," Atlanta Police Public Affairs Officer Stephanie Brown said in a statement.
"The City believes that the public trust we lose from not wearing body cameras is not worth whatever gains we achieve by continuing to serve on these missions without the accountability that body cameras can provide," Officer Brown said.
The federal agencies who have lost Atlanta officers from their task forces have expressed regret and said they will still support the police department.
"The United States Marshals Southeast Regional Fugitive Task Force has had a long and successful partnership with the Atlanta Police Department. Our collaborative effort has resulted in several hundred fugitives wanted by the APD for violent felonies being located and arrested every year," the U.S. Marshals told WGCL in a statement.
"We are sad to see this partnership come to an end, but are always willing to assist the APD if asked in the future. Our task force's mission is to locate and arrest those charged with committing violent felony crimes. This is an important mission that we will continue to perform for the citizens of Atlanta, the Metropolitan area, and the rest of the state of Georgia," the statement said.
Atchison's family has looked to the Fulton County District Attorney's Office for answers on what happened the night the 21 year old was killed, but haven't gotten much information from that avenue because the FBI was handling the death investigation, not the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.
That means the district attorney's office does not have access to the weapons and physical evidence involved in the incident, WGCL reported.
"It's also important to point out, even though the local police departments require their officers to wear and use body cameras, for some reason, federal law enforcement are not required to do the same," the Fulton County District Attorney's Office said in a statement. "We understand that the local law enforcement officers involved in the incident erroneously believed they were not required to wear the cameras. The lack of body camera footage creates a substantial gap in the normal investigative process."
"We will conduct an investigation, but because of the circumstances that I've outlined, it will probably take more time and present a greater degree of difficulty in reaching a conclusion," the prosecutor's office said.

MindMingle Inspiration Festival – Creative Conversations on the future of Schools
Each child is unique and has an unique way of understanding things. Who can do a better job in inspiring young minds other than their schools and teachers? There is a constant change in our education system with our developing society that started from the practice of Simple Living and High thinking in "Gurukulam" to our current modern education system of having individual laptop sessions in Kindergarten.
With the emergence of new education system, I guess we somewhere lost the point that education is a process of learning to acquire knowledge and not about getting scores beating up others. It's high time we focused on revolutionizing the future education system that molds our younger generation minds to grow better.
My mom used to tell stories about her school days. In one of those stories, I got to know that she was an active participant in most of her school activities from drama, dance to excursion whichever she was interested. She still remembered the fun she had and those days did sound beautiful. They went to school just to learn things and acquire wisdom. Never was the pressure on their heads to score more and get into top colleges. When, I look back at my school life, I don't remember doing any such things other than studying books for just passing the class with good grades. I was good at volley ball, glass painting, etc but I was forced to cut my volley ball practice to focus on my exams. That's how the trend was. Both teachers and parents would appreciate, if we memorize stuffs and get good marks in the exams. No one cared whether everything was really UNDERSTOOD or kids' creativity was enhanced or whether students really learnt to apply the knowledge they have acquired.
Nowadays, it looks like the cycle has once again changed and we started pushing the children not only on studies but also to join all the classes to compete in the fast moving world. But the point is, are we even bothered to ask a child what he/she is really interested in before putting them into all those classes that claim to enhance the kids' 'thought process'? A couple of years back, I happen to read a parenting blog of my friend's. She has described funnily the events that happened when she started looking for a pre-school for her kid. All the pre-schools she had visited seem to be focusing on developing the kids' English speaking proficiency and boasted that as their 'goal' and that's how they enhance the kids' knowledge and creativity. Uffff!!! Our current education system sure needs a change!
We may bring in modern ideas and innovations that may actually help children acquire knowledge in fun ways that also kindles their creativity. Albeit true, I strongly believe that only teachers can actually bring out the real talents of children. Teachers must also be well educated on how to engage kids in learning. Without that, I see that any modern education system to be a total waste.
Are you involved in transforming the lives of the young children as a school owner, principal or teacher or head master/mistress? If yes, you have an awesome event to enrich your knowledge on teaching. Go on and read more..
Little more on the MindMingling event:
What we need now is a transforming education system in India from ground-up and to expose school leaders to the ideas of pioneers in education, their insights and inspiration.

Using Mocha with Puppeteer
Run an example script on your local machine
We've created a GitHub repo you can clone run from you local machine to get a feel for writing browser checks with Mocha. Clone the checkly/browser-checks-starter-mocha repo and run the provided example.
git clone https://github.com/checkly/browser-checks-starter-mocha.git
cd browser-checks-starter-mocha
npm install
mocha check_duckduckgo.js
The result should look something like this, if you are working on a Mac or on Linux.
Breaking down the Mocha browser check step-by-step
The piece of code you just ran is a fully featured browser check. You can copy and paste it into Checkly and it would check the search results of Duck Duck Go search every x minutes. Let's step through the code step by step
1. Initial declarations: We first import Assert and Puppeteer libraries. We also declare a "browser" and "page" variable using "let".
const assert = require('assert')
const puppeteer = require('puppeteer')
let browser
let page
2. Before hook: Inside the Mocha
before hook, we launch a browser and a new browser page, which is like a normal browser
tab. We do this inside the
before hook because we always want this initialization to happen before any checks are done.
Also notice the use of the async/await syntax.
Almost everything in the Puppeteer framework is asynchronous: using this syntax saves us from using callbacks or promise chains.
before(async () => {
browser = await puppeteer.launch()
page = await browser.newPage()
3. Create a test suite and test case: We create a Mocha test suite and test case using the
describe and
it syntax.
describe is strictly speaking not necessary, but it helps us organise test cases if multiple tests belong together.
describe('Duck Duck Go Search', () => {
it('returns Chrome Puppeteer GitHub repo as first search result', async () => {
4. Search for a term: There's a lot going on here:
- We request the Duck Duck Go site and wait till the page is loaded and most network activity has died down. This is the
- We type the sentence "chrome puppeteer" into the input box that has the HTML id attribute
- Then we click on the button with the id
search_button_homepage. This kicks of the search!
- Lastly, we wait until the results page has loaded and the element with id
r1-0has loaded.
await page.goto('https://duckduckgo.com/', { waitUntil: 'networkidle2' })
await page.type('input#search_form_input_homepage', 'chrome puppeteer', { delay: 50 })
await page.click('input#search_button_homepage')
await page.waitForSelector('.results--main #r1-0')
5. Validate the results: We now have a page with search results. To check if the results are as expected, we do two things:
- We parse the link from the first result using the
page.evaluatefunction. This executes a piece of code in the context of the results page. In this case we grab the first anchor tag
awith CSS class
result__a. We're interest in the contents of that element. For good measure we trim off any leading or trailing spaces.
- Using the assert function, we check if the link is what we expect it to be. If this fails, our check fails.
For good measure, we also take a screen shot of the current page. This always helps when debugging.
const githubLink = await page.evaluate(() => document.querySelector('a.result__a').textContent.trim())
assert(githubLink, 'https://github.com/GoogleChrome/puppeteer')
await page.screenshot({ path: 'duckduckgo.png' })
6. After hook: We clean up the browser in the Mocha
after hook. This makes sure our checks ends the instant all test
cases are done.
after(async () => {
await browser.close()

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure." -Marianne Williamson
For me, the most terrifying thing is having to watch something happen - something you want to change, something you have to change - and not being able to. Being helpless. That's the worst. It's watching someone you love die, it's finding something taken - stolen from you. Or it's even trying your best, but not making it. We say that our greatest fear is not that we aren't good enough, but that we are great beyond measure. I've often thought about that - it sounds nice, maybe it's even a profound thought. But it's not true.
Sometimes, when we stand watching something horrifying happening before our very eyes, we stand looking because there is nothing else we can do. We sometimes tell ourselves we can do anything, but we can't. We're human. We can't stop someone from dying no matter how much we love them, we can't always find again what we have lost. We can't be better than we are if we're our best, we can't change the world's problems in one day.
But we can try. In fact, sometimes the most we can do is try. Because it's better to try and fail than to be haunted by "what-ifs." The problem is that trying sets up often for a broken heart, because to truly succeed, we often have to fight with all our being. But I guess it's better to have a broken heart than a complete one, because a broken heart makes us feel - makes us comprehend - instead of being numb. After all, to truly be alive, we have to live.
(thanks for the comments - I love reading them - sorry haven't had time to reply)
