The Davis House Child Advocacy Center Button Ball 2017 (formerly Legacy Ball) is set for Saturday, March 3, 2018 at The Factory in Franklin.
The formal event raises funds and awareness for the services and programs Davis House provides to children facing sexual or severe physical abuse. Davis House served 467 new child clients last year in its four-county service area of Williamson, Hickman, Lewis, and Perry counties.
The Button Ball begins with a wine reception and silent auction followed by dinner at 7 p.m. Ticket prices are $125 per person. Online registration is available at www.davishousecac.org with additional information by calling 615-790- 5900 x 104.
The event draws well over 300 attendees annually and promises to be a big event again this year. Last year's event delivered net proceeds of $92,000, and the goal this year is to reach $100,000.
The children who come to Davis House for the first time feel as if they are the only one. They feel alone. They are scared, sometimes ashamed, and often embarrassed about why they are there, even though it's not their fault. Each child on their first visit to Davis House picks out a button from the button box.
They place their button into the Button Jar, which contains all the buttons from the children who have come before them. On the jar are the words, "You Are Not Alone." This visual reminder immediately lifts their spirits, and lets them know that, indeed, they are not alone.
National statistics indicate one in ten children will be victims of sexual abuse by the time they reach age 18.
Long-time Master of Ceremonies Rhori Johnston of News Channel 5 returns to usher in the new era of the event. In addition, Heidi Schwartz will again provide a unique Paint Your Event experience with a memorable interpretive live painting capturing the evening. This painting will be featured in a live auction at the close of the Ball. A "Not-So- Silent Auction" will also take place. After dinner and the program, dancing will close out the night.
Davis House is an accredited child advocacy center by the National Children's Alliance. With three locations, the Centers work to empower non-offending parents to protect their children and actively participates in the state-mandated Child Protective Investigation Team (CPIT) as it responds to allegations of child abuse.
Money raised at this year's event will fund programs and services, which are provided at no cost to the children and their families.
For additional information about Davis House Child Advocacy Center and the services provided, please visit wwwdavishousecac.org.

It's been a week and a day since a man threw a rock at my head. No, it's not so serious physically. Maybe I should be able to handle it better.
People ask me how I am. I'm fine. What else do you say? You're not going to have a breakdown in front of Leslie Social on campus in the middle of the day. Because if I say how I really am, that's what will happen. "I'm fine" is what I can get out without crying.
Oh yeah, I'm fantastic. I'm depressed all the time and I cry when I get home, and when I wake up. It was a spiritual attack more than anything, and yeah, I feel attacked. I apologize for not being made of steel or for being one of those people who can let it just roll off of them. I feel attacked. I feel every ounce of how much the enemy hates me and doesn't want me here. Yes, I know, God is greater. I KNOW those things. My parents are missionaries, for goodness' sake. How would I not know these things? I know that I'm an overcomer because of Jesus. I know I am victorious. I know that. And yet, here I sit on my bed, crying because I feel totally overwhelmed and like I'm drowning in all of this. "Pray for your emotions!" Thanks, I know. "Don't let your emotions rule you!" Yeah. I know. "Don't let the enemy accomplish what he wanted to." Sorry. I'll add that to my list of things to work on, including "Don't be such a freaking failure."
These are all things that pop into my own head. It's easier to project them on other people, but actually everyone around me is being very supportive and understanding towards me, more than I am towards myself. I expect myself to just be fine, and to be able to handle it, and to be ok.
But I'm not ok, and that's ok. I'm afraid to walk home from campus, and that's ok. I'm depressed, and that's ok. I'm tired all the time, and that's ok. I'm behind with my academics, and that's ok. I'm overwhelmed by everything, outward things and inward things, and that's ok. I cry all the time, and that's ok. And God knows, and He understands, and He knows how deeply this is affected me, and He doesn't expect me to be made of steel because He more than anyone else knows how weak I am.
There, I said it: I am weak. I'm weak. I'm a wimp. That rock knocked whatever pride I had left out of me. I have nothing left that shows that I, on my own, am strong at all. I am a crying, snotty mess who is afraid to walk alone on Main Road in the middle of the day with people around. I have to ask God for strength to get out of bed, let alone do what I have to do that day. And you know what? That's a good place to be. So even though I'm in a bad place (and no, I'm not ok at all) I know that God is strong for me. My faith in Him is not shaken. He protected me; something much worse could have happened that day, but He protected me. I didn't even have a concussion. I'm not ok, and I'm weak, and that's ok because He is strong. And eventually, maybe not anytime soon, but eventually, I'll be ok again and I won't feel like getting out of bed and getting dressed and leaving my flat takes an impossible amount of effort.
Thank you for your continued prayers. I need them.

This Bluetooth keyboard redolent of an early‑to-mid-20th-century typewriter may seem like a gimmick, and to an extent it is, but not entirely. The Qwerkywriter is designed to work with either a desktop computer or with a tablet slotted into the stand at the back, and it evokes the springy, satisfying action and sound of a typewriter pretty accurately. I suspect it could be helpful for RSI sufferers, although its makers make no such claims.
A few other things elevate the Qwerkywriter. Firstly, it's well made by a California startup, chunkily cast from aluminium alloy with good-quality mechanical switches to provide the necessary clicky feel. Secondly, the patent-pending keycaps are carefully made with an authentically concave, shiny surface that makes typing even more pleasurable. Thirdly, the return bar, although it doesn't have the full visceral feel of a real one, can be programmed to equate to a return key or any one of five other functions. Charming, and quite possibly productive.

ServiceCentral has gone through two acquisitions; the first in 2005, the second in 2017. As a result, their employee base has grown by 30% and the company has increased revenue by 50% (some of which is attributed to the joint venture opportunities their software enabled). Steve said, "we're getting a lot of traction in the industry that I didn't think we would've had, had we not done the deal."

text: Things You Do to Stay Warm that Actually Make You Colder in Wisconsin Rapids Posted November 18, 2015 Winter is inevitably near in Wisconsin Rapids, and with it always comes frigid temperatures that may leave us bundling up with more layers. Furnace service and added layers are usually surefire ways to keep warm on cold days, but there are a variety of other tips available out there that you may be utilizing that are simply making you colder, not warmer. Common Myths: Hot drinks will make you warmer: while the initial sensation of a hot drink can help you believe that you're warm, your brain can sense that it should start cooling off your body, causing cooling mechanisms. Alcoholic drinks will warm you up: the reason we normally feel warm after a few cups of holiday cheer, it's simply your skin warming. Alcohol can actually decrease your core temperature, making you colder. A well-tuned furnace, thanks to having annual furnace service performed, is a more sound bet. Hot showers heat you up: comparable to hot drinks, the heat of your shower is simply a fleeting feeling that fades when the water is dried up and toweled off. That's why opening the shower curtain is so difficult. Wearing only a hat will handle your warming needs: while there are a host of sources that state that a great deal of body heat is lost via your head, it's critical to remember that any part of bare skin contributes to heat loss. Therefore, while it seems like common sense, if you're only wearing a hat and not a coat or gloves, you have a better chance to lose body heat quicker. So now that you have read about a few misunderstandings surrounding staying warm this winter, it's not difficult to realize the importance of something as easy as furnace service. Of course there are other things you can do to stay warm this winter besides furnace service, but there may not be many that have such a great impression on your day-to-day comfort. Give Rapids Sheet Metal Works Inc a call at 715-301-0256 or arrange an appointment online to find out more about what furnace service can do for you in Wisconsin Rapids. Back To Blog

None of us is as dumb as all of us together, so with that in mind, I am hoping that someone out here knows how to fix this.
Six or seven year old Asus laptop, running Win7. About a year ago, trying to log in with my main (and administrator profile), I started seeing this.
So, I did what any sensible person did. I went to a pawn shop and bought a cheaper slower replacement THAT WOULD ACTUALLY LET ME LOG ON so I could just get stuff done. BUT, now I would actually like to access the files and programs that are on this thing. I'm sure I could take it to Best Buy and get charged more money than it's worth to fix this. Or, someone smarter than me can just tell me a way to either fix it, or retrieve my data. Suggestions? Friendly neighborhood NA for your time. (Whoever owns this teaches in my district at another campus, and I am totes jelly.)

Many market participants use "delegated reporting" to meet their obligations under EMIR and REMIT. This involves another party, such as the counterparty, reporting on their behalf. This blog post by Gordon Allot of Broadpeak Partners gives several reasons why such reporting may not be on offer in future, which will require market participants to change their reporting strategies.
This letter has recently been published by the Central Bank of Ireland, reminding market participants that under EMIR, they are responsible for all reporting, even if delegating it to another party. There is also a reminder that market participants should be checking messages that come back from Trade Repositories.
With changes to EMIR coming next year, many will now need to optimise their reporting arrangements.

Former Altria Group Executive Charmaine Chua Joins Shryne Group as…
"Charmaine brings a wealth of experience and knowledge in the highly regulated CPG space that are increasingly germane to the cannabis industry," said Shryne Group's Co-Founder and CEO Brian Mitchell.
July 22, 2019
The Shryne Group, a vertically-integrated cannabis holding company covering the breadth of California, today announced the appointment of former Altria Group executive Charmaine Chua as its Senior Vice President of Sales.
In her role, Chua will oversee the Shryne Group's wholesale and distribution programs for its leading cannabis brands in California, including STIIIZY, and emerging markets. Chua brings 15 years of sales experience in a highly regulated consumer packaged goods industry. Chua joined Philip Morris USA in 2004, now a subsidiary of Altria Group, best known for its tobacco products such as Marlboro cigarettes and Skoal smokeless tobacco.
In the span of her career, Chua held multiple leadership positions at Altria, and most recently was senior district manager overseeing a 35-person sales team covering 3,000 retail stores and generating $450 million in annual sales. She also led Altria's partnership with retail giant Walgreens, driving sales in over 6,000 stores. Chua is a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley's Haas School of Business, and also holds a B.A. in Legal Studies from the University.
"Charmaine brings a wealth of experience and knowledge in the highly regulated CPG space that are increasingly germane to the cannabis industry," said Shryne Group's Co-Founder and CEO Brian Mitchell. "Her extensive experience building effective sales and distribution programs in complex and competitive environments will help propel our brands to the next level. We're thrilled to welcome Charmaine to the team."
"Opportunities like these come maybe once in a lifetime," said Chua. "California was the first state to legalize medical cannabis and it is the oldest and largest legal market in the world today. We are seeing that market mature and reach for its full potential. I am incredibly honored to be joining a company that is on the forefront of that evolution."
About Shryne Group
Shryne Group Inc. is a Los Angeles-based cannabis holding company with a fully, vertically integrated asset and license portfolio covering the breadth of California, the largest legal cannabis market in the world. The enterprise is the result of the synergetic integration of profitable cannabis assets and veteran professionals who have come together for the opportunity to shape this industry. Our vision is informed by an intimate understanding of cannabis culture, its history and the collective expertise of decades of experience in diverse fields.

"What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet."
While that may have been true in Shakespeare's time, do we need to add a new type of discrimination today based on a person's first name?
Researchers at Harvard Business School found that online marketplaces that choose to reduce the anonymity of buyers and sellers in order to facilitate trust experience an important unintended consequence: racial discrimination.
In a field experiment on Airbnb, the researchers found that requests from guests with distinctively African-American names are roughly 16% less likely to be accepted than identical guests with distinctively White names. The difference persists whether the host is African-American or White, male or female. The difference also persists whether the host shares the property with the guest or not, and whether the property is cheap or expensive.
The experiment also found that the discrimination is costly for those who do it: hosts who reject African American guests are able to find a replacement guest only 35% of the time.
Clearly, this should not be happening.
Initially, it was thought that digital market places would reduce this type of discrimination. Previous research has found that African-American car buyers paid a higher price than white car buyers at dealerships, whereas another research study found no such racial difference in online purchases.
Online platforms such as Amazon, eBay, and Expedia offer little chance for discrimination. However, this advantage is by no means guaranteed, and in fact it depends on design choices made by each online platform. Over time, platforms have moved toward systems that favor more revealing profiles that reduce anonymity for users. Such an approach is designed to foster a higher level of trust between buyer and seller.
Airbnb requires hosts and guests to present their first names; it is this reduced anonymity that could potentially lead to discrimination, as shown with the Airbnb experiment.
The first time I heard about this type of discrimination was in the great book Freakonomics. In that book, authors Levitt and Dubner talk about a study where researchers take identical resumes and just change the first name so that one name is distinctively black and another name isn't. They send those out to employers and see whether there's a callback. The result every time was that if you have a distinctively black name you're less likely to get a callback.
(It should be pointed out, that despite the findings in this research study, Levitt and Dubner still concluded in their book that the name you are given at birth "does not seem to matter at all to your economic life." In other words, it's not the name your parents give you; it's the kind of parents you have in the first place. It is true that your name may tell the world something, maybe even something fairly significant, about your parents' religious or ethnic background, their level of income or education, maybe even their politics. But just think about it for a minute. Think about all the things that make you you – your intelligence, your taste, your health, your work ethic and morals and decision-making – to say nothing of luck. Now, considering all of those heavyweight forces, how much could something as superficial as a name really affect your life's outcome?)
So getting back to the Airbnb study, the authors do have some recommendations on how Airbnb could avoid this type of discrimination:
- Guest names could be concealed
- Expand its "Instant Book" option, in which hosts accept guests without screening them first
The researchers also note that while Airbnb is likely protected from charges of discrimination, Airbnb hosts may not be. Thus, the authors suggest that an audit of Airbnb hosts take place, using the methods describes in the research study, to see if discrimination is indeed taking place.
So while the dog that proclaimed, "on the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog" in the famous New Yorker cartoon may be safe on a site like Amazon, if he's trying to book a room via Airbnb, he better not tell the host that his name is Spot, Lassie, or Rover.

I was speaking to a young lady on Monday, her name is Grace. I would say she was in her early 20's, polite and well educated.
Grace was telling me about a recent discussion that she had with her bank.
It was time for her debit card to be renewed and her bank was pushing their new touch pay technology. This is where you simply touch the receiver at the checkout and the transaction is taken without you having to sign or type in your pin. It is also known as "Contactless Payment".
Grace was rightly concerned about the risks of such technology. Although there is a maximum payment of around £30 when used it does make it too easy to spend. She conceded that on a night out "things can get messy". With cash, if you run out, you run out.
Grace is also aware of the nightmare tales of pirate electronic sensors being placed under cafe tables, park benches and in bus stops etc that can extract funds through this technology directly from your bank account.
Her considerations of the risks were indeed justified and ones that I share.
I currently have a touch pay card that was automatically sent to me from my bank, so I have a secure wallet (Pac Safe) that contains a material that blocks such pirate technology.
Grace told me that she relayed her concerns to the bank and for these reasons she did not want to pursue the offer. She was happy to keep her more traditional card.
The reason why I relay this tale to you is because of the reply she received from the bank representative to win her over to the idea. "It is so much easier, everyone has it".
This reply got me thinking!
I repeat for effect "It is so much easier, everyone has it."
This was the line given by the bank, perhaps with the best intentions, but it struck a chord with me.
This phrase is possibly the best summary I have heard to describe the modern world. "It is so much easier, everyone has it."
We live in a culture of convenience, if it is easier for us, whatever the cost to others, whatever the cost to the environment or to our own lives, the better! And if everyone else is doing it, well, then it's ok! We are in a democracy after all, the masses have spoken!
The word 'democracy' that so freely guides our society comes from the Greek words Demos and Kratos, meaning "Power and People," which sounds quite romantic, and it can be.
However, Thomas Jefferson, the founding father of the United States and principle author of the Declaration of Independence was said to have said
"Democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where 51% of the people may take away the rights of the other 49%."
This is of course a risk, such a system is actually know as an Ochlocracy, the rule of the general populace, or the tyranny of the majority, the mob (Ochlos), "mob rule".
Any governing principle that simply follows the desire of the masses, over a moral code of what is right and wrong, can of course be very dangerous. But such is the understanding of what people think democracy is and their life choices are then governed by it.
We want convenience and if it is accepted by the masses then it must be OK.
"It is so much easier, everyone has it." This could be the quote that captures the Zeitgeist for the 21st Century.
Before I go on, I do realise the hypocrisy in my writing, we are all guilty of of desiring an easier life, especially me and I am often happy to justify it by other peoples standards! I am guilty as charged!
But having such an attitude is why we often fail as Christians and why the church is facing such a crisis in our society.
For example, it has become widely accepted in today's culture not to come to church. So the common thought is that "if nobody else is going, then it must then be OK if I do not go!"
Church has now become inconvenient. "Sunday is the only day I get to have a lie in".
There are now so many things to do on a Sunday like sports and shopping, visiting family or even catching up on work emails. Church has been relegated to yet another choice of convenience that has to compete with the fast food economy of the world.
We do thank God that church still might fit in at some point, one week in fifty-two (usually around Christmas or Easter), when the shops are so full nobody wants to go, and there is no sport on, but that is only because at these times church "is so much easier, everyone has it."
You maybe surprised to know that this is certainly not a modern problem; church attendance has fluctuated up and down throughout the ages. There were less members at Noddfa in 1900 than there are now, people clearly thought they had "better things to do" back then.
Yes, there were times where society made it law to attend and times where people were culturally pressured to come, but those that were forced to come to church were no more a Christian than those with no desire to attend today. They only came because it was convenient and followed the masses.
Jesus spoke about such desire in Matthew 6:21, He said; "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also". If your heart is with God, then you would desire to worship Him in the manner He has decreed in His Word (the Bible), you would thirst for His Word preached, and grow hungry for His truth and you would long to spend every moment you can with your covenant family. If you are then a Christian, church on a Sunday is the place for you!
Whatever treasure you put in the way of such privileges, that would stop you interacting with God in this way, is where you heart is, and if your heart is not with Jesus, but on the things of this world, on the day of judgement you will hear the scary words of "I never knew you, away from me"(Matthew 7:23).
Yes, it is nice to have an easier life; I have often succumbed to the temptation of convenience and have often followed the crowd to justify my stance.
But just like when Grace rightfully (in her case) refused to fall into the trap of ease and mass consensus, we cannot do the same when it comes to God.
In fact Jesus clearly commands us to do the very opposite. He says
"Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." (Matthew 7:13-14)
I am of course for Democracy, but it can only be sustained by a moral backbone of truth, one that protects us from the tyranny of the majority.
Just because ten white men hung a black man, it does not make it right because he was out voted. In Germany 1933 the National socialist party was elected with 43.9% of the vote, the people spoke and the Nazi's were legitimate rulers, yet it does not make it right.
As Christians, we have to fight the temptations of convenience and popularity; we have to follow the truth of what we hold given clearly to us in Scripture.
We are in a minority, we do live in a post Christian nation; we are at a time where these words of our Lord (Matthew 7:13-14) speak to us with greater relevance.
We must continue like Pilgrim on the narrow path, in obedience to our Lord's teaching as this leads to Life!
We must not follow the masses down the broad road, however easier and pleasing it may look to us, as this leads to destruction.
Our Lord says in Matthew 7: 21 that not everyone who says to me "Lord Lord" will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, only those who do His Fathers will".
You may tell people you are a Christian, you may proclaim the name of Jesus, but is your heart with Him? Are you living in obedience? Do you long to hear His Word preached and to be with His people at church? Or are other things you desire getting in the way?
He says to you "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also".
Join me today in coming to Jesus and asking Him for forgiveness for all those times you have switched on the TV instead of reading your Bible, or scrolled through Facebook instead of Praying, or skipped church to have a lazy morning.
The Narrow Gate is harder to get through; it might mean sacrificing the things we like to do. But the rewards are worth it.
I plead with you not to follow the masses for convenience, but follow Jesus for Life!
As Christians we must be a witness to His truth, we must Keep Sunday's Special and show the world that God is more important than the conveniences and choices followed by the masses.

slide slide slide!
And again...last time for today I promise...
Another reason I am having a blogging marathon is that I am a bit behind as I had to have dental surgery last week due to a tooth snapping and an infection spreading round my mouth three weeks ago. Anti biotics done the job then hour and half in dentist chair trying to get tooth out. So I am now no longer out of it on pain meds and swelling is down and feel up to it so im on a roll!
Simply Magnolia- CAS or fully loaded
Deep Ocean Challenge blog- Things with wings
Midweek Magnolias- Christmas is coming
lovely hAnglar or Sweet Magnolia- gems, pearls or sparkle
So this card is another fave style of mine and one that always gives people a surprise. its a double slider card a very simple but very effective.
I used papers from Craft and You which can be found at Noor! Design UK. I used sparkly paper for the Magnolia angel wings from Stampin' up. I love how they have turned out with the beautiful glittery paper. The stars were also cut from glitter paper but a slightly more matte version and these are from Magnolia. I wanted to keep the image on the front simple and clean, something for me that has taken a lot of years of practice to even to get to this.
On the slider part I used two of the Magnolia Tilda images from last years releases. Everyone loves a holy wreath at Christmas so these two went perfect together. I coloured them with my fave Distress inks. I added a little eyelet so can pop some lace through to help the pulling of it. I also added a little pull me tag after the photos as I sent one for my dad's 70th and he didnt realize it could slide so lesson learnt!
Hope you have a great weekend!

Synopsis: Married to her soul mate, the chocolatier William, Tasmin should not have to worry about anything at all. But when her happily ever after is interrupted by the disappearance of the town's wise woman, she rushes in to investigate. Faced with dangers, dead bodies, and more mysterious disappearances, Tasmin and William must act fast to save their town and themselves – especially when Tasmin starts to be haunted by a most unwelcome ghost from her past…literally.
The Chocolatier's Ghost is an enchanting sequel to Cindy Lynn Speer's bestselling romantic mystery, The Chocolatier's Wife.
She crested the hill, and the wind fell silent. The snow fell away, except for one spot, where it swirled and settled, drawing details that glowed faintly in the darkness to become the figure of a woman. Her head turned slowly, looking over her shoulder at Tasmin, and then the rest of her followed suit, the snow falling and lifting and resettling on the curves and folds that outlined the silvery figure. She stared at Tasmin, moving her head this way and that, as if trying to focus on the face in front of her, considering.
The ghost tilted her head, reaching out one hand slowly, making as if she would touch Tasmin. Tasmin backed up a step. The hand was getting closer, and she panicked. No herbs, no amulets would help her, but she did have another talent, thin and unpracticed, but still there.
She raised a fist, palm towards the figure, and opened it quickly, warding the touch away. "Forbidden," she whispered, and a spear of air shattered through the snow. The ghost disappeared, and the world seemed to right itself, the wind died down and everything seemed to be normal.
She stepped carefully around the newly formed pile of snow and continued her walk home. Determined not to think any more about it, she stripped off her clothes and fell into bed, half wondering if her exhausted mind had not conjured the whole thing.
What kind of writer am I?
by Cindy Lynn Speer
I am very much a catch as catch can writer. I start with something that enchants me, a character, a plot idea. Sometimes I hear the first line of the story, and I am able to just sit down and start typing.
The first draft I just write. I try and make sure that every day, when I end, I leave myself in a place where I know where I am going next. I write notes to myself in the text instead of research -- "Check to see if that was how it was done" sort of things or "Need more here later." Anything that stops me, I try and avoid.
I sometimes use things like Liquid Story Binder to create dossiers when I go through the second draft -- I want everything to be consistent, so as I go I make notes about anything I am worried about forgetting -- Fae hierarchy. Names of wind sprites and what they are like. Little pieces of the character's pasts that impact the story or may come up later.
Also, during the second draft, I split things up into chapters using Scrivener, because you can keep everything together in the same file, but when the file is opened the chapters are each in their own section. It's it something that happens automatically, I copy and paste from the first draft document. If it's a story with multiple view points I color code the chapters so that I can see where I need to add -- I like to switch view points (mostly) at chapter changes and I like to "take turns" with characters for that reason.
The first draft is the skeleton, it's also where I get the joy of discovery. The second draft is the musculature and ligaments -- I expand the story, I make sure everything flows, that it all makes sense. It's where I sit down and make sure that things are not rushed through -- I tend to rush when I am excited because I have this fear of boring my audience, and it manifests in me rushing through some scenes. So I make sure the timing is good, that everything makes sense. It is the longest part of the process.
Third draft is when I print it, and I sit down with it and edit it for grammar, auto-correct errors, and such. I also ask myself questions -- "Do I explain this thing earlier?" "Are his eyes always green?" "Do I need this here?"
Then, I open the file, and I make the corrections, and answer the questions. Usually, unless I did a ton of work, that's my last draft until my publisher and editor do their work.
I think, sometimes, that outlining and doing dossiers first and really building my world might be good…it would give me handles to grab if I left that world for a long time, but I find I do not have the patience. Maybe I would if I was a full time writer, I don't know.

Some old friends (old as in college buddies not overall age) finally let it slip a few weeks ago that they are friends with a couple who have Shetland sheep. I'm on my way down to Portland to visit L & J since it's been ages plus if 1 or 2 or 10 Shetland fleeces happen to make their way into my car then so be it. (fleeces have been offered up for free and how can I pass up that price?)
Leyburn sock #2 has been cast on although very little progress has been made so far. Since March 1st is on Sunday I seriously doubt I will finish before then. Due to my stashing habits in February and my lack of knitting progress I know my Stashdown numbers won't be pretty.
My biggest purchases have been knitting related but not yarn. Little Knits has started carrying Namaste bags and I couldn't resist. First I fell for an eggplant Buddy case and then somehow (I'm really not sure how) I also ordered a peacock Newport bag. The latter is on sale right now so if you have always wanted one….
In other news…please send good job vibes my way on March 4th around 3pm PST. I'm just at the preliminary stages of interviewing for the position but it would be a great fit for me. I'm not going to get my hopes up but this is only the 2nd decent lead I've had in 12 weeks. Kind of demoralizing until you realize everyone else is getting the same results.
I have to admit I'm kind of enjoying my flexible work schedule right now so the prospect of going back to a 40+ hour work week definitely has its pros and cons.

Would you like to volunteer? If so, we need people in the following areas:
Registration... people at the start/finish to process race registrations. This would include looking up racer's names, marking them present, giving them their bib, tags and shirts. Answering racers questions and addressing their needs. Also, handing out water prior to start and snacks and water after finish.
Equipment and timers at Race Transitions (RT): people to handle equipment and individual leg timers to time the racers as they enter the RT. Equipment handlers will insure racers place their equipment in correct spot and is properly tagged. At bike RT volunteers will validate helmets are worn prior to leaving. At boat RT volunteers will validate PA permit and PFD. At boat take out, we'll need people lifting water filled kayaks out of the way... could be some heavy lifting here.
Aid Station/Tracking (AST): people to hand out water and crossing racers off the list as they pass. We want to keep track of the racers location... We don't want anyone stranded in need of help.
If you can help in any of these areas, please send us an email at firstname.lastname@example.com
A race like this is not cheap to host...
There are many costs associated hosting events like these. Timing / promotion, insurance, EMS Services… Much of which is paid out of pocket prior to the event.
RFR has their eye set on MANY venues on the east coast (PA, VA, NC, SC, GA, FL) for Triyakathon. For starters, we would like to get a race in Harrisburg utilizing Susquehana River, River walk and the Parkway MTB trail system. We would like to get a race at Lake Raystown utilizing the lake and the Alligrippis Trail. BUT many pieces need to fall into place if this is going to happen... the biggest hurdle right now is cash. As an example, the City of Harrisburg would be charge RFR ~$2,000 in park fees alone!
To get races like this started, RFR needs donations.
Ride Float Run is a 501(c)(3) organization. Every little bit helps, thank you.

Iran defeated the US 5-3 to win the championship at the United World Wrestling Freestyle World Cup for the fourth consecutive year.
The tournament, which has been held annually since 1973, features the top teams in the global ranking from the previous year of the competition. With hundreds of Iranians waving flags, blowing horns and singing at the Forum Stadium in Los Angeles on Monday, Iranian freestylers felt at home and managed to overpower the host in a close encounter.
Earlier in the day, Iran defeated the powerhouse Azerbaijan, 7-1, winning its pool with a 3-0 record. The US also advanced to the final by defeating Mongolia, 8-0, winning its pool with a 3-0 record.
Iran's Hassan Rahimi gave his nation the first win of the finals with a tight 6-5 victory over Tony Ramos (US) at 57kg. Iran's Behnam Ehsanpoor sent the Iranian fans into boisterous applause, winning over American Coleman Scott 9-7 at 61kg.
Brent Metcalf gave the US its first win with a 3-1 victory at 65kg over world No.2 Masoud Esmailpour.
Iran would take a key swing match at 70kg as world No.10 Hassan Yazdani would show keen mat awareness to defeat world No. 11 Nick Marable 3-1.
Iran's Morteza Rezaei-Ghaleh (74kg) had defeated two world medallists already in the tournament, but facing world No.2 Jordan Burroughs (US), he lost the match 10-0.
World No.4 Meisam Mostafa-Joukar, the reigning world university champion, would face American Clayton Foster at 86kg. Mostafa-Joukar finished off Foster earning a 12-2 technical fall and gave Iran a 4-2 lead with two bouts remaining.
At 97kg weight class, the 2012 Olympic champion Jake Varner (US) picked the last three seconds to strike and steal a victory away from 2014 world bronze medalist Mohammad-Hossein Mohammadian. Earning a 3-3 criteria victory, Varner sent championship down to the event's last match.
World and Olympic medalist Komeil Ghasemi (IRI) stepped on the mat at 125kg to try to bring the World Cup title back to Iran. He would face off with World No.15 Zach Rey.
Ghasemi beat his American rival 3-1 to give Iran the 5-3 team victory.
Before the final, the consolation match to determine the third-place team was held in which Azerbaijan and Russia leveled on points in the consolation match, but Azerbaijan pushed through by technical points with 34 to 28.
Following the victory, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, the President Hassan Rouhani, Majlis Speaker Ali Larijani, and the Minister of Sports and Youth Mahmoud Goudarzi in separate messages congratulated the Iranian team.

Set up in late January, the Review Panel over the last nine months has been consulting widely throughout New Zealand, including those that have been affected by serious injuries and fatalities. Meetings with more than 540 forestry stakeholders have been run, 111 submissions were received and more than 330 workers have completed a Forestry Worker Survey as part of the review.
The independent panel's task was to identify the likely causes and contributing factors that have led to the high rate of serious injuries and fatalities in the New Zealand forestry sector. As detailed by Review Panel Chair, George Adams, unfortunately the forestry sector has been the most dangerous sector in which to work in New Zealand. The injury rate is double that of the other sectors and the fatality rate is 15 times the overall rate for all sectors. This has to change.
The full and comprehensive report (146 pages) can now be downloaded directly from www.ifsr.co.nz. A video interview with panel members on the findings from the report can be seen here and an 11 page Summary of the Recommendations has been uploaded here for you and can be viewed by clicking here.
The report contains a package of practical recommendations that are considered necessary to bring about long-term, system-wide and integrated changes within the sector for Government, the forestry industry and workers to action. A commitment to change and leadership will be an essential part of the recommendations. It's recommended that a Forestry Leaders Action Group and Forestry Sector Health and Safety Action Plan be put in place within three months of today's meeting. Take a look yourself at the findings. Further comment is covered below and other details will follow.

You be the judge! I loved this review. I seriously think it's possibly the funniest review ever!
It's also genuinely crafted, heartwarming. original and witty. Bravo Mr. Awar!
It appeared on Audible.com today as a review of one of my audiobooks, Who The F*ck Am I? By the way, this is the new cover:
Warning! The review does contain adult language as do all my books in the Steve Regan Undercover Cop series. They are gritty, hard-boiled crime fiction stories. So, if you are easily offended, please stop reading now.
The Review
"Very Interesting! "
For long stretches of nights.
Never talk about that in public.
Hash tones and pierce mode
Using more than I usually do.
Suzy delivered a rousing speech.
You are into business and the time is up for you to pay your taxes can be very threatening. This reminded me of a poignant discussion I once had with my Line Manager.
The chicken cordon bleu remained uneaten. Isn't such expression very interesting? Your Friends should be filtered in order for them to pass through the testing of trustworthiness. You need to order this book now and get to know this important truth about your line of friends.
What the fuck! Is the expression, my 10-year old son, EMSL told me that it was a foul language and should not listen to such a book. Well, he failed to know that the book is sweet to listen in spite of the foul language.
I'm a fucking nobody. Play acting? What the fuck you're talking about? Fuck the ticket! I rather pay a fine of a ticket than being killed. It is also an important lesson I grabbed from this book, which might soon and very soon serve me like a recipe to save myself in any dangerous encounter. I don't need to tell you more to that the book is awesome.
Who the fuck do you think you are?
I thought I'm going to die anyway, so I told them anyway. This is what fear can do to any of us. So, in such instances be very careful how you disclose life-threatening information to authorities of any kind.
In the next 30 seconds, the tables were turned around. A statement that made me reflect deeply on my past life and how the tables were turned around in my favour.
What are we going to do, are you in or out? Many a time, even in normal life, we need such frank lessons to be put across to either our friends or closed relatives. Because those who betrayed us aren't our enemies in the first place, but closed members to us. So this book taught me to be vigilant in my future dealings with closed members in my personal life. You need to get it, please.
"Great tight nice pussy." "See you in bed." are expressions that made me love the book the more.
We all have experienced a situation like this before, wherein you are a peace abiding fellow and somebody from nowhere is there to just torment you. You're obliged to give it back to them just like this case.
Mental toughness.
What beats my imagination is the patoi that was spoken in the process while the reading was going on. Very awesome, which made me feel like I was in Freetown.
Please get your copy and enjoy one of the best British narrators.
Wow! That'a all folks!
Thank you so much ETOFAWAR.

Prevention and cure
Aetna International delivers comprehensive global health insurance and health management solutions for mobile employees worldwide.
Writer Chris Farnell
Project manager Sheridan Halls
With an ageing global population facing constantly changing circumstances, the healthcare industry is sitting on a demographic ticking time bomb, and is going to have to significantly change the way it does things if it's going to adapt to this new world. Nobody knows this better than Derek Goldberg, Managing Director: Southeast Asia, at Fortune 100 health insurance firm Aetna.
"All healthcare companies are facing some daunting demographics and trends," says he. "Obesity has more than doubled between 1980 and 2013 while changes in diet and lifestyle are contributing to a rise in chronic diseases. We also have elderly populations rising around the world and one alarming statistic I've heard is that the global percentage of elderly people is expected to triple by 2050. The Southeast Asia region is no exception: Singapore, for instance, has one of the three or four most rapidly ageing populations in the world. Even more concerning is that these trends are projected to continue for the foreseeable future. This drives healthcare costs up, making it less affordable for people to obtain quality care. We aim to contain costs by better managing the health of patients who have chronic conditions while also focusing on prevention and wellness." It's a mission that that Aetna takes incredibly seriously. The company's approach to the issue is a forward-looking and multi-pronged attack. "Our mission is to make quality healthcare affordable and accessible," Golderg explains.
"We're best known for health insurance and that is a key part of what we do. Our international insurance business is primarily focused on meeting the healthcare needs of customers with cross border requirements, including expatriates on overseas assignments, and local nationals who travel a great deal or require access to private hospital systems that would not be covered under a typical local health insurance policy. Our insurance plans are designed for the unique needs of these 'globally mobile' people, with features like worldwide networks of healthcare providers, 24-hour customer service, and electronic claims filing. In addition to our insurance programmes, we also off er prevention and wellness services to individuals, employers, and governments, which empower people to lead healthier lives. The wellness features are offered both as part of our insurance products and on a standalone basis."
To take on such a global problem requires work on an absolutely massive scale, but Aetna has the size to deal with these issues, Goldberg tells us. "One of our advantages is our size and stability. We bring global resources to our mission, with 50,000 employees looking after our 44 million members worldwide; 800 of those employees are focused exclusively on the international needs of our 500,000 cross border customers. We have more than a million healthcare providers in our worldwide network. That scale and experience translates into a nuanced understanding of the healthcare needs of our customers."
Aetna's sole focus on health and wellness brings invaluable knowledge to the table.
"Our reputation is built on unparalleled expertise. Many insurers do health insurance as a sideline, but for us it's in our DNA, it's everything we do," Goldberg says proudly. "As a result we are the experts in healthcare and this presents many benefits to our customers. We know how to price and manage risks to keep rates stable over time. We can combine our insurance with other health and wellness related features. We can analyse vast amounts of data from our customers' claims alongside data gathered from health check-ups or online health risk assessments to identify risks. We can then target at risk members with prevention programmes to reduce the prevalence of disease and help our members with existing conditions better manage their illnesses."
But medical expertise isn't enough either. Working across international borders means working within a wide variety of different legal systems and regulations, and with the health of large populations being a particularly salient issue right now, things are changing fast. Fortunately, Aetna is able to keep up.
"We devote significant resource to making sure our plans are compliant with local regulation and requirements wherever we operate in the world. As a U.S.-based company we can also offer insurance plans compliant with the healthcare reform act popularly known as Obamacare," Goldberg says.
The company's approach is one that has proven hugely successful. It has seen very strong growth over the last year, both in Southeast Asia and globally, and new opportunities are opening up all the time.
"There are a number of rapidly growing economies in the Southeast Asia region, like Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines, which are expected to continuing growing for quite some time," Goldberg explains. "The middle class is expanding in these countries, creating an increased demand for quality healthcare. At the same time, multinationals from outside the region are being drawn in by the growing markets, sending expatriates in to work here, which falls directly within our area of expertise. So these trends are a positive opportunity for us."
Aetna is more than a business. It's made up of people, and for the company as a whole to achieve the things that it does it needs to be made up of the very best people. They need professionals who not only have strong technical and medical knowledge but also insights into the cultures and markets in which the company does business.
"We believe in hiring locally as we need staff who understand the markets that we're in, but we also look for people who can grow with the company," Goldberg says. "We take our time to find the right candidates. It can be tempting to get someone in quickly when we're growing fast, but it's important to us to find the right person for the role rather than simply filling a gap as soon as possible. Once people are on board we invest heavily in their training through internal and web based training as well as using expert training resources from outside."
Once they've located the right people, they like to hold onto them.
"The time we put into recruitment pays off because we get people who want to make a career here and stay with us," Goldberg says. "We have a stable and experienced team. While we have quite a few new team members because we've grown so much, there are still a large number of people who were here from the early days of our setting up in this region."
But this is only the beginning.
Aetna still has big plans for the future. "Geographic expansion is a big part of our growth strategy. Our philosophy is to bring our healthcare offerings to more potential customers in more markets while adding more features and options to our products. We also expect growth from our international population health solutions business, which works with governments to build effective healthcare systems. One example from our Middle East region is the government of Qatar. We're helping to build a new national health insurance system that will provide access to healthcare for its entire population of citizens and foreign residents."
Aetna is eager to take on the challenge of broadening its reach. And it's a good thing too, because the issues Aetna is grappling with are becoming more pressing than ever, and the entire industry is going to have to change the way it thinks.
Goldberg concludes, "Healthcare around the world is changing, from a system that's focused on treating disease to a system that's focused on keeping people healthy. Aetna is at the forefront of that change, with our technological innovations, population health solutions, corporate health and wellness programmes and care and disease management programmes. We are a company that can connect people, employers, healthcare providers and healthcare systems in ways that translate into quality care, better outcomes, and contained costs."
