It's ludicrous that President Donald Trump wants Americans to believe that building a wall to stop migrant children and their parents will make the nation safer, and that these poor migrants who desire a better life are a threat to our security.
In fact, the biggest threat to Americans is President Trump himself and the extremists who are among his base of loyalists.
As an American, I am concerned about the threat of nuclear proliferation with Russia. I'm concerned about the the rise of China as a global leader and Chinese hacking of our databases. I am concerned about reports that North Korean has not stopped building nuclear weapons.
I am concerned that across the country, mass gun murders at schools, churches and concerts are happening on a regular basis, mostly at the hands of white men. About 800,000 Americans were injured by firearms this year — unheard of in other first world countries. For the past two years, there has been a rise of hate crimes by white supremacists.
Beyond these flesh-and-blood dangers, climate change is a pressing crisis that is putting Americans' health, environment and economy at great risk. Yet Trump has ignored the science and recent research findings by numerous federal agencies about this real threat.
In California, thousands of people's lives have been destroyed by monster wildfires due to climate change. All across the nation there is a homeless crisis with no end in sight. In some parts of Boston, 45 percent of the homeless population are children. And then there is the opioid epidemic in mainly poor states that voted heavily for Trump.
Don't forget the rollercoaster drama we've gone through these past two years with Trump and Russia: first with the Russian meddling in the elections to get Trump in office, then the Robert Mueller probe on that Russian election interference and then some of Trump's closest allies going to jail.
So with all of these happening, stop and think: Are the most vulnerable of Latin American descent a real threat to American security. Or is it really President Trump?
Why does Trump have this fantasy that poor Latin Americans are such a national security threat that he sent the military to the Mexican border to intimidate the migrants?
And why are these families continuing to be torn apart when they arrive at the border after a grueling journey?
On Christmas Eve in New Mexico, 10-year-old Felip Gomez Alonso became the second child in recent weeks to die in the hands of Custom Border Patrol. These tragic deaths must be investigated, and anyone convicted of wrongdoing must be punished to the fullest extent.
And it's not just at the border where children are being separated from parents seeking a hard-working life in the U.S. It's happening right in our own neighborhoods, as ICE and other federal officials persecuting residents with brown skin.
During the 2018 election, U.S. Latinos sent a message and a major blow to the Republican Party by coming out to vote in an unprecedented manner.
This is the type of action all of us must take to make sure President Trump's wall never gets a dime.
We Latinos must not forget our roots. We are innovators who have helped keep the U.S. moving forward. We are 60 million strong, we've spent over $2 trillion in goods and services and we are the fastest growing group of entrepreneurs in the nation.
We must protect the U.S. against Trump by voting him out, by speaking out and being strong in ways we can be best for our country.

Brand new website for Stewart Highland, Falkirk
On a visit to Stewart Highland for a friend's wedding hire, I reviewed their current website and quickly noticed that this was out of date and also not mobile friendly.
After discussions with Ewan, we sent in a proposal with ideas of how the site could look. He was excited at the proposed layout and we started work. Within a short period of time, it was noticed that Ewan's business was very busy through the summer period of wedding hires, so we offered an extra bit of help with content writing, image selection and generally pulling everything together allowing Ewan to focus on his own business.
The team consulted Ewan on a regular basis and he was able to view his site throughout the process with his exclusive weblink.
The finished site is exactly what he was looking for, a high end quality website that represents his own quality, attention to detail and customer service.
good design is obvious, great design is transparent

"Websites promote you 24/7: No employee will do that." ― Paul Cookson
"My first meeting with Scott was great, we spoke about what we thought my old website was missing/needing to bring it up to date & I could tell straight away that we were both on the same wavelength.Scott & the team made the process really easy, always keeping me up to date with where we were in the project through various emails. This reassured me that everything was in hand & going to plan, the only struggle I had through the process was getting the time to look at what content I felt needed changed/removed.Scott then suggested bringing Adam on board to help get this pushed through. My initial meeting with Adam was great as we looked through the content on the old site & managed to get most of what we needed from it in the space of about 30/45mins. After which I was really surprised to hear back from Adam a day or two later asking me to check over all the new content that he had come up with & what he had done was exactly what I was looking for. Adam is an absolute credit to the team & Scott is amazing at making sure you are constantly aware of what is happening & keeping the project on track.I would highly recommend Crunchy Carrots to anyone looking to update their website."EwanStewart HighlandVicar StreetFalkirk

Do you do this?
We, women, are the masters of riddles.
I don't see it as intentional or manipulative but rather more that I'm not ready to say what I really mean or I'm working up to it. There are small and large "confusions". Small could be considered the little white lie; large could be a complete fabrication.
Either way, we can mislead for many reasons.
Saying one thing and meaning another is a common habit. Confused meanings are more than likely about a lack of interpersonal skills and self-confidence. When we say the opposite to what we really mean it may have something to do with insecurity. Think of the "mean girls" in school, the all too familiar bully who strikes razor sharp with the sarcastic comments. Those kinds of "compliments' or suggestions are very often the opposite of what the words suggest. How easy it is to cover inadequacies by preying on others more susceptible.
Much of the time we say what we think someone wants to hear, not what we honestly feel. They hear what they want and we receive positive reinforcement but when we say one thing and mean another it doesn't do the recipient or us much good. Truthfulness is far more meaningful. I'm not suggesting we live life with no filter but find the balance.
Saying what we mean, without nuance or loaded intent is an admirable skill.
And we say one thing and mean another more often than we realise.
Then there are those who deflect their troubles onto others.
Haven't we all been at the hand of what we consider "unfair' criticism only to understand later the "tirade" was really not about us but a different problem entirely? How easy it is to rant and rave about one thing when we know we are really boiling about something completely different. Having-a-bad-day can manifest in many ways and in particular by taking it out elsewhere. Aren't we all a little guilty of that?
This is where I find the giving of a compliment can help.
A dark mood may see fault all around but seeing the good keeps the disappointment, anger and upset where it belongs – with us. If it's our problem then we need to find the solution. Criticising for no true reason is unfair and in the long term will only make us unhappier. When we offer negative suggestions or comments we should ask ourselves if it is truly how we feel and is it justified. xv

I am sure many Windows Phone and Android user are watching the progress of Microsoft's new born child, and so here is a new way to look at it. This new emulator was released just yesterday by the good people at Microsoft, and like always the good people that reside in the XDA forums began work on the unlocked version so you can get the full experience.
Here's the updated emulator build. It seems very similar (and the build number is only a bit higher) than the one leaked last week. As with that build, there's no options to add data sources to sync/connect with. Ugh! I'll keep working at it as it's bound to be there somewhere but we'll see.
Unlike previous builds, it seems that you need to pass a VMID to the XDE executable. As follows…
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft XDE\1.0\XDE.exe" "C:\Users\YOU\Desktop\WM70C1-6414-unlocked.bin" /VMID {E575DA31-FC47-4766-853F-018D823B9EE6}
Or you can place the file in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Phone\v7.0\Emulation\Images" with the name "WM70C1.bin" and debug with visual studio and it will launch. I've only tried a super basic app but this appears to be the first one that actually works fully with debugging! This should help the devs that want to be able to test with the various task launchers with some actual data.
The full experience can be unlocked in the thread

Manager fronts up
Nigel Adkins did not hide away from the team's position in the Barclays Premier League after a 2-0 defeat to Southampton, but will continue to strive for every possible point between now and the end of the season.
Goals in either half from Jay Rodriguez and Adam Lallana gave the Saints a 2-0 win at Madejski Stadium and the boss said, "We don't want to be in this situation but we are and we can't shy away from it. You can either start hiding away or look forward to what we have to do.
"We needed a win, we were playing a good team but we're at home and we went out there to win. We are where we are in the division but we have got to keep working very hard."
The Royals' best spell came at 0-0 when Adam Le Fondre was unable to take a great opportunity, we had a decent penalty claim and Artur Boruc saved well, and if we had scored in that period the whole complexion of the match would have shifted.
The boss said, "There are always spells in the game. Alfie is the leading goalscorer and a great finisher. We've got him out there to score, that's the idea of course. He's a great finisher, unfortunately it didn't happen today but I'm sure it will in the future. And the penalty incident, it's a talking point and could have gone either way."
Rodriguez's opener could well have been a foul, and the boss rightly said that anywhere else on the pitch it would almost certainly have been given. Nigel commented, "The challenge on the goalkeeper, if it's somewhere else on the field of play, well it's very high. It could easily have been a free kick and I thought we were doing alright in the first half.
"At first I was actually more concerned about the offside, they played a second phase, our player headed it and if he'd left it it would have been offside. He said the referee knows he's made a mistake, I just said I hope they don't score and lo and behold they put it in the net.
"In the second half the ball was 99.9% over the line from Alfie's header but to be honest it's all talking points and we've not got the result we needed. The players worked very hard but Southampton got a better grip of the match in the second half.
"We've been on a run of games when we've not got the results we wanted but there has to be belief."
Adkins also confirmed that Hope Akpan had picked up an ankle injury very early in the encounter and did well to soldier on until half time, when he was replaced by Mikele Leigertwood.
Adkins also confirmed that Hope Akpan had picked up an ankle injury very early in the encounter and did well to soldier on until half time, when he was replaced by Mikele Leigertwood.
Last but by no means least the boss was given a great reception by our fans, and he said, "Very much so. The Reading fans have been superb since I've joined and I'm looking forward to a really good growing relationship with them. I'd like to think they know we'll have a team that works hard and plays in a certain manner. At this moment in time we've got to get points on the board and win games."

My first social!
Today was very special for me- I got to go to the puppy social at pop's work! The last couple weeks I've stayed home because I was still learning my manners, but today I got to with my brofur and sisfur! And what an excellent time we had! There were probably about a million other pups there. At first my tail went down and I hid between pop's legs because I was shy. But RA & Isis were having such a blast I soon relaxed a bit and really had a great time. Here I am with my sisfur- Isis and Barley the corgi are real buds!
A good time was had by all. Hope your day was pawsome!!

Old railway station on Water street, Charlottetown
A newer apartment building just up the street from the station.
Sunny with a low of -4 and a high of 8. I cycled into Charlottetown and then to Cornwall, I now have logged 400 km on the new bike. I attended a town meeting this evening.
Over the next couple of weeks I will not be posting every day. I leave in the morning for South Carolina. When I get a chance I will post some text but I don't expect any photos.

In a 2018 letter to syndicated advice columnist Amy Dickinson, "Horrified" shared how her family nearly lost their beloved pup.1 Not to an illness or injury, but to vaping liquid. Horrified's husband spilled the liquid on the floor and the dog ingested it and almost died.
Horrified's letter was brief, but SAGE Veterinary Center's Emergency and Critical Care veterinarians can help fill in the details after years of treating pets who have ingested many different toxic substances:
What exactly is vaping liquid?
Vaping liquid, or e-liquid, is a substance that users add to battery-powered smoking devices, or e-cigarettes, e-pipes, etc. Vaping liquid generally contains nicotine and a mixture of flavorings, propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin, and other ingredients.2 When heated, the liquid turns into an aerosol that users inhale.
Why is vaping liquid dangerous to pets?
Glycerin and propylene glycol are not highly toxic to pets. On the other hand, nicotine is toxic when ingested.
The ingredients list for e-cigarette products are not easy to nail down, according to the Centers for Disease Control.3 Nicotine levels in vaping liquid can vary. Users can find a range of levels, from "nicotine free" to products that contain 25 milligrams per milliliter of nicotine.4 Some vaping sites say products can contain as much as 42 milligrams per milliliter of nicotine. It doesn't take much for a pet to become dangerously ill after exposure to vaping liquid. Veterinarians report clinical signs of nicotine poisoning in dogs and cats exposed to as little as 0.5 milligram per pound of body weight.5
"Even more dangerous are the bottles of e-liquid that are used to recharge the e-cig cartridge: the nicotine in these bottles can range from 10 mL to 60 mL or more," Dr. Sharon Gwaltney wrote in a 2014 article in Veterinary Partners. "So a 30-mL bottle of 36 mg/mL e-liquid will contain 1080 mg of nicotine, more than enough to prove fatal for even a very large dog if the contents are ingested."
What happens physiologically when a pet gets into nicotine products?
Nicotine is a rapid acting toxin—it speeds the heart rate and can cause vomiting, collapse and other symptoms within an hour of ingestion.6
Dr. Robert Lukas, an Emergency veterinarian at SAGE Dublin says he has seen dogs who ingest tobacco products come into the hospital hyper-excited, panting and drooling. Some have had high heart rates, and some have had mild muscle tremors (their muscles are moving as if they are shivering). Most of these patients have vomited, or have developed diarrhea.
"Thankfully, I have not seen the toxicities that have been so bad that they lead to stupor or coma or collapse that require oxygen or a ventilator," Dr. Lukas says.
How do veterinarians treat nicotine ingestion?
Dr. Lukas says he evaluates the nicotine product and how long it has been since ingestion before deciding how to move forward.
"If it is the liquid and it has been more than 30 to 60 minutes, we are not likely to evacuate the product through vomiting," Dr. Lukas says. "If we are working with plant-based tobacco ingestion and we see the patient in the first hour after ingestion (maybe 2 hours – depends on how much was eaten), I am more likely to want to see if we can get more material out through induced vomiting. I only do this if they are breathing well, conscious and have a good swallow reflex."
Veterinarians may also use activated charcoal, which they administer orally, to absorb a liquid toxin. Activated charcoal keeps the toxin in the stomach and intestines, limiting absorption into the bloodstream.
If the dog has symptoms of toxicity (such as high heart rates and tremors), or if he is worried about it coming in the next few hours, Dr. Lukas will hospitalize the pet to give it IV fluids, and drugs to calm them if needed.
"The first 4 to 6 hours after ingestion tell the tale of how bad it will be," Dr. Lukas says. "Most nicotine is out of the system after 18 hours, although urine drug tests can be positive for up to 4 days."

08 Aug Malevich: beyond the black square
There has never been a better year to look at the work of Kazimir Malevich, a pioneer of abstract art often seen as the greatest Russian painter of the twentieth century. 'Malevich: Revolutionary of Russian Art', first shown in the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, and now at London's Tate Modern, is the most comprehensive exhibition of his work ever.

READING: Leviticus 14-15
Sometimes a word in the Word leaves us with no word to say; that is, sometimes the Word leaves us speechless. Today is one of those days for me.
You wouldn't think so, though, based on only the content of today's reading — a reading about skin diseases, molds, and bodily emissions. Reading about such matters is tedious at times, but near the end of today's reading is this verse: "You must keep the Israelites from their uncleanness, so that they do not die by defiling My tabernacle that is among them" (Lev. 15:31). With all the regulations about cleanness and uncleanness, here was the bottom line: people would die if they defiled God's dwelling place by their uncleanness.
I fear we miss the seriousness of our own "uncleanness" until we read words like these.
Several thoughts arise from this one text. First, God is holy. He's so holy, in fact, that uncleanness could not enter His presence. Second, He demands that we be holy as He is. We've seen that truth before in this book, but this text illustrates the dramatic results if we are not holy in His presence. Third, it is that holiness that makes us different from others. These laws seem odd at times, but God used them to set His people apart. Fourth, Moses and Aaron had responsibility to teach others to be holy. God expects us to be holy in the context of living with one another, urged together to be a clean people.
Today, we can enter God's presence only because Jesus Christ died for us and now lives within us. He makes us clean, and thus makes it possible to be with God, through His shed blood. We can — and must — celebrate this truth together today. We must celebrate with those God has given to teach us these truths.
ACTION STEPS: Consider these steps today:
- When you pray today, pause to consider the reality that you are talking with the eternal Creator. Don't take that truth lightly.
- At some point today, read the story of Jesus' death in Matthew 27:32-56. Be reminded of the means by which we enter God's presence.
- Write your pastors or mentors a note, thanking them for urging you to be holy.
PRAYER: "Father, I'm amazed that I get to talk with You today. I'm amazed by Your plan. By Your grace. By Your mercy. Thank You for allowing me to come into Your presence through Jesus. Thank You for those who teach me Your Word."
TOMORROW'S READING: Leviticus 16-18

I have been contemplating starting Yoga for years before I started at Tao Of Light. I am usually not one to join group classes, preferring to exercise alone. In fact, I even purchased a Yoga DVD a couple of years ago, but found that to be impersonal and ineffective for my needs.
My chiropractor suggested that I consider Yoga to help me with my "lack of flexibility" and to help strengthen my back. After all, I am in my 50's and everything was getting a little more difficult to do! Well, I found out about Tao of Light, and signed up for the 4 class pack special. In the back of my mind I had already succumbed to the fact I probably wouldn't continue. Boy was I wrong! In fact, after taking the 4 classes I was hooked! In the beginning, I was unsteady and "stiff as a board", but NEVER ONCE did I feel that I was lagging behind the other students. The instructors are exceptional at reminding all of us that we are individuals, to take things slowly, and that at every class to follow your body cues.
It's been 8 months now, and I am beginning to feel like a new person. I am also noticing that I am now consciously and unconsciously adjusting my posture (I've been known to be a bit of a sloucher). I am also becoming more flexible, which I notice when I am bending down to pick something up or reaching for an object in a tricky place.
Take it from me, it's never too late to start Yoga. Like I wrote earlier, I am now hooked and will practice Yoga for the rest of my life.
Thank you to all of the instructors at Tao Of Light Yoga!

Lynx Helicopter at Ream Hills
England / Blackpool, Lancashire
Be prepared for a holiday with a difference, or, should that be a heli-day with a difference, close to the seaside action in Blackpool.
At Ream Hills, the owners took the decision to convert one of their nine lynx helicopters for people to enjoy and explore within their existing holiday park grounds, creating with it one of the UK's most unusual lets and somewhere kids are sure to react to with sheer open-mouthed disbelief!
Westland Lynx helicopters date back to 1977, are still used today by the Royal Navy and they were even used during the Gulf and Falkland wars. This particular model X-ray Zulu 676 was built in 1982 and following careful and clever remodelling, the interior now sleeps a family of four thanks to a double bunk at the rear of the helicopter in addition to two pull-out bunks in the lounge area.
Where there was once a cockpit you will even find a small but highly useful kitchen area with microwave, mini-fridge and running hot/cold water, and there is a large digital television and good heating throughout to make your stay a comfortable one, as well as access to communal facilities that you would expect from a campsite.
Outside of the charming chopper, Ream Hllls also boasts its own 'wakepark' for wakeboard addicts and there is paddle boarding and open-water swimming to tempt you during the summer months. With the infamous bright lights and seaside fun of Blackpool also just 15 minutes away,

Review by Liam & Andy.
We all met at Peels Wharf at 09.45am, Tim arrived with the new trailer loaded after the open day on Saturday. The Weather was overcast but warm with the sun threatening to make an appearance.
The boats were off loaded and the usual car ferry down to the Tame Otter was carried out courtesy of a lift back to the get in point by Kina. We started off with Adam taking the lead, we soon forked off left at Fazeley junction towards the transfer to the river Tame. The day before (The open day) we had torrential rain and also all through Saturday night , this resulted in the river being unusually high. The current was very strong and fast flowing. The seal launch into the Tame was fun but nowhere near the height of drop there usually is, due to the river level. Tim eased us all down the bank including the 3 open boats (the only way to travel). As we ventured down the river, we had training on breaking in and out of eddies and ferry gliding. There were a couple of people who were on their first river trip so this was an excellent time to start learning these important skills. We were very soon at Ladybank Bridge which was to be our lunch stop. We got out of the river just after the bridge before the weir, the decision was taken not to shoot this weir. As we settled down to our various packed lunches we noticed a member of the paparazzi on the bridge taking our photographs (his name is Paul Cox, and at time of writing, the images can be seen on the facebook page of the canoe club website). After lunch we had some questions/answers and information on the hydrology of weirs before we carried on down the right hand section of the river. In this part of the trip we practised paddling backwards and the sculling draw stroke. Daniel was adding to his collection of footballs along the way and loading them into the Ottawa open boat (the only way to travel). Around the next bend we could hear the roar of Paper mill weir, we assembled above the weir to get ourselves ready for the excitement ahead. Adam went first and as he hit the standing wave at the bottom he let out a YAHOO as all the rain the previous evening had made the weir a very exciting drop. As this was the first river trip for Kina and Marina it was also their first weir and they could not have had a better baptism of fire, at the bottom of the weir people who did not have a splash deck or were in opens (the only way to travel) had to bail out the water gained in the shoot. Liam decided to use a single bladed paddle; C1 style and was engulfed by the stopper but luckily did not go for a swim. This was Dave's first weir in his new open boat and a good job he made of it too.
We continued on and started to look for the get out point, some of us that were a little way behind missed the eddy for the exit of the river and because of the strength of flow ended up further down the bank, after various exciting climbs up onto the river bank and a right royal stinging by the nettles, we realised we were on a small island and not on the correct side of the river. We decided to put a few rescue skills to the test, a throw line was attached to the front of an open canoe and thrown to the other side of the river, another throw line was attached to the stern of the boat and this was used to ferry people and kayaks across the river before the portage up to the canal. Oh, I nearly forgot to mention that whilst we were discussing the throw line situation, Tim decided to audition for the 2012 diving competition and did a very nice pike and tuck dive into the river and ended waist deep, though as this was not a fall from a kayak it cannot go down on the report as a swim. As we were getting back into the boats it became apparent that we were missing a kayak paddle, after searching the bank we soon realised that it had been left on the island, so as he was already wet, Tim decided to again audition for the 2012 Olympics, this time with the 100 metre front crawl, and swim across the river to retrieve the paddle.
The inquest into the owner of the lost paddle has been opened, DNA samples and finger prints have been taken and Jeremy Kyle has agreed to carry out a lie detector test, so the truth will out.
Eventually we all arrived safely back at the Tame Otter and enjoyed a few drinks and a good laugh.
A fantastic day was had by all.
Attendees on the day were:
Alison, Katie, Kina, Marina, Adam, Andy, Dan, Dave, George, Liam, Richard and Tim.

Keto diet is the most searched term on Google in 2018. It helped thousands of people to lose weight. But there are some keto diet mistakes that can ruin your progress and fat loss journey.
I'm going to teach you today, The top 5 Keto diet mistakes.
Top 5 Keto diet mistakes:
Not staying patient
So the very first mistake is not staying patient during the Keto adaptation Phase.
You have to understand something. you've been running on carbohydrates your entire life. Now you're asking your body to completely switch metabolisms and start using fat for energy instead of carbs.
You will have some withdrawal effects through this time Commonly known as the Keto flu. What you need to do is stay committed. The Keto flu will pass and all of a sudden you Will be in Ketosis and you will feel better than you first started.
If your fat loss is stopped then this guide will help you to lose 2kg a week.
Not eating enough fat.
So the second most common mistake is not getting enough fat. You have to Understand this is a Super high-fat diet. 75% of your calories need to come from fat, so that's things like eggs bacon sausage. Avocados, oils, coconut oil, butter you need to seek these things out mentally.
It's not what you're used to doing. You're used to avoiding fats your entire life now all of a sudden, You look at the grocery cart you have nothing but fat that's a good thing fat is your new energy source. You're not running on carbs anymore. You need fat if you don't get enough fat your energy levels will go down and you will end up quitting this diet.
Too much protein bro!!
The third most common mistake is too much protein. What ends up happening is, if you consume too much protein on this diet is a process called gluconeogenesis.
Essentially, your body is going to treat that protein like carbohydrate converted into glucose and that will kick you out of ketosis.
It's very important that you choose high-Fat low protein Foods. So you're not going to be eating a lot of lean chicken. You're not going to be eating a lot of Whey Protein.
When you go to the grocery store, you need to buy the chicken legs instead of the chicken breast. You need to be going for the whole eggs instead of egg whites.
You only want 20% of your calories to come from protein.
Have you supplemented electrolytes?
Mistake number four and In my opinion, one of the most common. That is you are low on electrolytes.
Electrolytes are absolutely critical in this diet and they are the number one reason why most people end up failing.
If you do not have enough electrolytes sodium, magnesium and potassium you will experience headaches, fatigue, constipation, Lethargy and you simply will quit this diet.
Insulin also happens to be the hormone that tells your kidneys to store Sodium. When you suppress the insulin your kidneys are flushing out all the sodium from your body. Especially when you workout. Replace all that sodium by salting your food, eating salty snacks.
One of my favorite tricks is to drink salted lime water throughout the day. That will also help you to manage acidity.
Potassium is also a major electrolyte, It's used in all different types of contractions for your heart and major organs of your body. To get enough potassium you can eat foods like green leafy vegetables and avocados.
Finally, we have magnesium another essential. An electrolyte that's used in almost every chemical process in your body. It's important to supplement with a Magnesium supplement.
Someone is hiding from you!!
Mistake number five is hidden carbohydrates. See only 5% of your calories that come from the carbohydrates.
You want to be eating a lot of green leafy vegetables, nuts, and seeds. But you also have to watch out for the hidden carbohydrates. That are found in processed foods, food companies have become Professionals at hiding carbohydrates in Foods. You need to make sure that you're reading food labels.
Most important is to see how many grams of carbs are in each food and more importantly, Look at the ingredient list to see if you can identify any different names for sugars that are there.
5 keto diet mistakes: summary
- Not staying patient during the Keto flu.
- Not eating enough fat.
- Eating a high amount of protein.
- Not supplementing electrolytes.
- Not tracking hidden carbohydrates.
Apart from this, which keto diet mistakes have you made?

Fast start propels the Titans past Bensalem for their third straight District One playoff road win of the week.
BENSALEM — Pitching and defense are usually the key ingredients for teams that get hot in the postseason in high school baseball.
Central Bucks South has gotten both thus far, but it has also added another ingredient — offense.
A six-run first inning was the difference Friday afternoon for the Titans, who won for the third time on the road this week in the District One Class 6A Tournament, this time in the quarterfinals at No. 9 Bensalem by a 7-2 final score.
"After the Pennsbury win (on Wednesday), we've just got all the momentum after that," said starting pitcher Ryan Rieber. "We're confident. People see us as a 17 (seed) and don't see us as a big threat, but after our wins this week, teams are going to be like, 'Alright, these guys are legit.'"
With the win, the 17th-seeded Titans have advanced to Tuesday's semifinals at No. 5 Downingtown East, and also clinched one of District One's five berths into the upcoming state playoffs.
It has started with offense. In three district games, South has scored 18 runs.
"We're all building off of each other," said shortstop Joey Loynd. "Wednesday and Friday, both crooked numbers in innings. It's just been big. After that, the other team can't come back. We're locked down defensively, lately, and we're just on a roll."
Friday, as was the case Wednesday against No. 1 seed Pennsbury, the Titans had a big inning early. Brock Veit led off the game with a single, Jake McKeown walked, and then Loynd followed with a RBI single. Jake Trachtenberg made it 2-0 with a sacrifice fly, a grounder by Connor McKeown scored another, a wild pitch-error sequence resulted in two runs scoring, and then Rieber had a RBI single.
"Any time you can put up a crooked number like that, especially in the first inning, that gives our guys a lot of juice going out to the field and it kind of changes momentum a little bit when you're on the road," said Titans coach Brian Klumpp. "It was a great job by us jumping on them early."
Just like that, it was 6-0 and Bensalem hadn't even come to bat yet.
"I wasn't worried about a couple of runs, but then it got up to five and six and it was a problem," said Owls' coach Harry Daut. "Kudos to (South). They came out, took advantage of mistakes and they earned it."
Rieber then took over on the mound, winning for the second time this week, as he came out of the bullpen to record the victory against Coatesville on Monday. Friday, he allowed just one earned run, scattered seven hits and didn't walk a batter.
"When we won on Wednesday, I said, 'I've got the ball,'" Rieber said. "I was hyped all week about it. I pitched three innings on Monday, but I knew if we got to Friday, I would definitely be able to throw today."
Loynd, who missed most of the regular season with an injury, had a big defensive day at shortstop, while also going 2-for-3 at the plate, including a double.
"They say hitting is contagious and I believe that," Klumpp said. "Adding Joey into that 3-hole is huge and we're hitting pretty well 1 through 9 at the moment."

When a patient suffers from disease originating in the liver, bile ducts, pancreas, or gallbladder, and tumors form in those areas, physicians may decide to perform hepatobiliary surgery. ("Hepatobiliary" refers to the aforementioned areas.) Tumors on the gallbladder and bile ducts are considered rare, and can only be resolved through extensive surgery.
Such tumors are often detected by CT or MRI scans of the abdomen. In some cases, physicians may call for a biopsy to confirm a tumor diagnosis. Treatment may vary depending on where a tumor forms. Only liver transplantation or resection can cure primary liver cancer, while pancreatic tumors require surgical intervention. Minimally invasive techniques may be available to the patient depending on the size and location of the tumor.

Executive Team
Below is a little information on our Executive Team and Trustee Board.
I was appointed Chief Executive of Citizens Advice North Hertfordshire in July 2018.
I joined the organisation as a volunteer Receptionist in 2012, following an editorial career in academic publishing and a break to stay at home with my daughters. I immediately saw the value in the amazing work we do in our local community, felt the benefits of working with a supportive and interesting team of people, and gained huge amounts of self confidence and new skills. I trained as a volunteer Adviser and was then employed as an Advice Session Supervisor and the Training Manager.
I feel privileged to be leading this organisation into an exciting future as we expand the work we do to help even more people in the local area.
I was first employed at Stevenage Citizens Advice as a Mental Health Project Worker. I worked mainly at outreach venues including MIND, Mental Health unit and probation. I had a passion for helping people that were at a disadvantage because of their health issues and found this a very rewarding role.
I worked as a case worker for 8 years and progressed to a session supervisor whilst continuing with many different projects.
5 years ago I joined North Herts Citizens Advice as a session supervisor and quality assurance officer. I progressed to Deputy Advice Services Manager then to the Advice Services and Project Manager role that I am in today.
I am a retired career civil servant. I spent the last years of my working life in DWP . On retirement, after a brief rest, I became a trustee and chair of Headway Hertfordshire and following that trustee and chair of Crossroads Care.
I have now brought all my experience of public service and trusteeship to CANH where I am currently the chair. I hope that my understanding of regulated public service can benefit this charity. I enjoy working with and on behalf of the community and the challenges that this presents.
It is a privilege to chair a board of skilled and dedicated trustees.
I am Vice Chair of CANH. Following a long career as a Banker, predominantly in the City, I wanted to make a contribution to my local community in areas that are of personal interest to me and where I felt my skills would add demonstrable value.
I am not particularly interested in maintaining the status quo; rather I have an enthusiasm for those organisations that are evolving through change and find such challenges absorbing, stimulating and very enjoyable. It's also a great way of getting to know people in the local area.
I am also Chair of Headway Hertfordshire.
I have worked in Hertfordshire for 21 years and lived in Baldock for 20 years. My background is accountancy however for the last 15 years have worked for Tesco as the Operations Manager for the grocery online business. I first became involved with CANH as a trustee in 2004, in this time I have also been the Treasurer and Vice-Chair.
I have been the Treasurer for Citizens Advice North Herts since 2014, following a career in finance. After qualifying as an Actuary, I held a number of senior roles in investment management, where I was responsible for managing portfolios for insurance companies and pension funds.
I spent most of my working life in the civil service, first in what was then the Inland Revenue, and then in what became the Department for Work and Pensions, with a couple of years in the Treasury.
Over 37 years I was involved in policy advice to Ministers, worked in a Minister's office, got involved with training, and then in project management (including the projects to introduce self assessment for income tax, and to pay pensions and benefits directly into bank accounts).
I was lucky enough to be offered early retirement, and was looking for something that would still make use of my skills and experience, and enable me to give something back to society. Becoming a trustee of Citizens Advice North Herts in 2013 fitted the bill perfectly.
Since 2016, I have also been a trustee of North Herts Centre for Voluntary Service.

text: >At worst, this should take no more than double the amount of time that the >single pass did, probably less. Hardly a cause to concern ourselves with >the heat death of the universe. Oh really? We have shown that for the kind of global overall analysis that you are asking for, that in the general case, all possible paths much be taken. You cannot short-circuit, because you must first consider all possibilities and then weigh each valid result against each other valid result. Consider something like /.*/ or /.*?/. For a string a length N, there are (N+1) (N+2) ----------- 2 substrings that that matches. That means that an 80-byte string has some 3321 possible substrings, all of which must be considered. In the short-circuiting version, the Engine need consider but one single solitary case for each of those. 3321 is not the double of 1. Consider now something like /(.*)(.*)/ or /(.*?)(.*?)/ or /(.*)(.*?)/ or /(.*)(.*?)/. You now have 2 ( (N+1) (N+2) ) --------------- 4 cases to consider, or, in the case of an 80-byte string, some 11,029,041 possible choices. And with the current, normal, standard, short-circuiting system, the Engine has to consider, hm... could it be just one possibility? And that's just with two wildcards. People are often writing more than that. Can you now see why this would be a problem? And how even in the cases where it didn't actually break old programs (many of which it would!) that it would cause many many them to apparently hang, racing for electron death? --tomThread Previous | Thread Next

Both of which came up on shuffle the other day. I was only about 10 tracks in out of about 4000 so it wasn't like there wasn't plenty to choose from.
Also don't like Sunday Nights.
Mine's probably The Road, just don't like that song at all.

Clint Eastwood is Philo Beddoe in…
Don't you hate it when you and your orangutan are driving somewhere in your pickup truck minding your own business and some fuckin biker assholes pull up and start harassing you about there being an ape? Why can't a man and an ape travel together as equals without getting stared at and made fun of? And also, does someone who wears a viking helmet really have a leg to stand on in making fun of your choice of animal companion? And no wonder those morons put swastikas on everything, going around harassing different races and species.
Well when and if this happens to you you might get fed up and try to chase those fuckers down, possibly steal a street sweeper and tail them until they hop a train, at which point you will at least get to steal their bikes. This is a worthwhile option and one that works out for trucker/mechanic/bareknuckle brawler Philo Beddoe in this movie, but it also begins a war that leads to many fights and the destruction of more than a dozen motorcycles. So just know what you're getting into here is all I'm saying. (read the rest of this shit…)
VERN has been reviewing movies since 1999 and is the author of the books SEAGALOGY: A STUDY OF THE ASS-KICKING FILMS OF STEVEN SEAGAL, YIPPEE KI-YAY MOVIEGOER!: WRITINGS ON BRUCE WILLIS, BADASS CINEMA AND OTHER IMPORTANT TOPICS and NIKETOWN: A NOVEL.

The Artist's Shelf - oil on museum panel - 12"x8"
Just put the finishing touches to this piece a few days ago and am really looking forward to working a thin coat of varnish into it when it's completely dry.
The warm light cast over the objects allowed me great play in the cooler shadow areas, which almost vibrate.
I really enjoyed bring this piece to life.

Comprehensive plan approved
The Moose Lake Planning Commission approved recommending a variance to the sign ordinance to add a new sign behind the Holiday Stationstore, located on Arrowhead Lane. The request was brought by Joey Crary of Indigo Signworks to the meeting on June 23.
It was explained this was the second request for the sign that had been brought to the planning commission. The first proposal for a sign had not been approved.
Mayor Ted Shaw pointed out there are two signs with the company's logo on the canopy over the gas pumps, and other signage on the front of the building.
A freestanding sign is located between the building and the street that has digital displays that feature specials and the prices of fuels available at the station.
"Holiday has an image and brand," explained Joey Crary of Indigo Signworks. "This is how businesses make money. They do their branding and marketing, and they have done very well doing what they have been doing. That helps them be supportive of your community."
The commissioners expressed their concerns for the nearby residents, and asked if the new sign could be shut off at 11 p.m. when the store closes.
Crary said the new sign, to be located on the northeast side on the building, could have a dedicated circuit and be shut off between the hours of 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. when the store is closed. The canopy is lighted throughout the night for customers to use the gas pumps, he added.
No one appeared at the public hearing about the sign, and the planning commission approved recommending approval of the variance by the city council.
No one appeared at another public hearing at the same meeting about the city's comprehensive plan.
City Administrator Pat Oman explained the city had been holding public meetings to gather information from members of the public and representatives of various businesses and organizations in the community during the last eight or nine months.
Now the plan was brought to the planning commission for review and input.
"The comprehensive plan is a priority list, a get done list," explained Mayor Shaw. "It's a guideline for the next five or six years that we can go by as we make improvements in the city as allowed by the budget. Those improvements are what the citizens want but the expenses for those improvements have to fit within the city's budget. We have to prioritize. It will keep the city dynamic, and keep us headed in the right direction."
The planning commission recommended approval of the plan by the city council.

According to the lady, this caused mild chaos on the busy express road in Abuja – Katampe Express to be precise – as many drivers including her Uber driver stopped their vehicles to pick the littered bills on the road.

" There is no imminent plan to remove
subsidy. IMF said that fuel subsidy is
better removed so that we can use the
resources for other important sectors .
" In principle, It' s a good suggestion, but
in Nigeria we don' t have any plans to
remove fuel subsidy at this time
because we have not yet designed
buffers that will enable us remove the
subsidy and provide cushions for our

normalisation of trade relations among
the contending parties and called for
concerted efforts to supporting
multilaterism and avoid protectionist
" At the G- 24 meeting, I drew the
attention of the World Bank to some of
the challenges we face in implementing
our portfolio like the implementation
of the new environmental and social
safeguards framework which tends to
slow down implementation of our
infrastructure projects .
" My engagement at the IMFC also
focused on the global policy agenda .
" Governors underscored the
importance of strengthening market
competition, encouraging innovation,
tackling weak governance and
corruption and meeting the SDGs.

of strengthening international
coordination and cooperation to tackle
shared challenges , given the potentially

enough to serve the needs of motorists .

do to make sure that it is resolved, '' he

Kidnappers of channel Tv staff has been arrested by Nigerian police. Read more........
The Nigerian Police in Abuja has announced the arrest
of three persons suspected to have been involved
in the kidnap of the Channel Television's staff, Mr
Friday Okeregbe on March 22.
The police, in a statement on Sunday morning
by the Force Public Relations Officer, DCP
Frank Mba, said its investigation revealed
that the journalist,who was kidnapped at
Lugbe area of the Federal Capital
Territory,Abuja, was not the original target
of the kidnappers.
The Police reports ,a locally made revolver gun, three live
AK47 ammunitions, a battle axe, phones and
masks with which they blindfold their victims were recovered from the culprits.
"Effort is being intensified to arrest other
members of the gang still at large,"it said.
The full statement read thus:"In line with the
IGP's stated commitment to curb all forms of
crimes and criminality, especially incidences of
kidnapping and other violent crimes in the
country, Police Operatives attached to Operation
Puff Adder, acting on intelligence report, on 9th
April, 2019 at about 6:30am arrested three
notorious persons involved in the kidnap of
Channels Television's staff, Mr. Friday Okeregbe.
"The suspects: Hanniel Patrick 'm' 29years from
Akwa Ibom State, Abdulwahab Isah 'm' 28years
and Salisu Mohammed 'M' 32years both from
Kogi State have made useful statement to the
"Meanwhile, investigation reveals that Mr. Friday
Okeregbe was not originally the intended target
of the vicious criminals.
"However, on that fateful day, 22nd March, 2019,
at 07:45PM, he was kidnapped when the
kidnappers saw him parking his vehicle at a
location in Lugbe, Abuja. Investigation further
reveals that the victim was taken to the
kidnappers' den somewhere in Karimo, Abuja and
kept incommunicado afterwards.
"The Police have also recovered from the
kidnappers a locally made revolver gun, three live
AK47 ammunitions, a battle axe, phones and
masks with which they blindfold their victims.
Effort is being intensified to arrest other members
of the gang still at large.
Violent Herdsmen Attacks Threaten
Nigeria's Stability
"Meanwhile, the IGP has reassured the general
public that the Police and other security agencies
are doing everything humanly possible to tame
the challenges of kidnapping and other heinous
crimes across the country.
"He however enjoins them to always avail the
Police with useful information that will help in
realizing these objectives."
The Nigerian labour congress chairman. Mr Ayuba Wabba, gave this advice
at a news conference on Saturday in Abuja.
The news conference was tagged: "Public
Declaration of Nigeria's Host of the 6th African
Meeting of Solidarity with Cuba, Sept. 23 to Sept.
25 and Inauguration of Local Organising
Committee (LOC).
Wabba said that the continued devaluation of the
Nigerian currency had created the impression of
the existence of subsidy.
He said that as long as the value of the Naira
was left to market forces, the issue of subsidy
would continue in the country.
The NLC leader urged that efforts should be
made by the government to upgrade the nation's
"As President of the International Trade Union
Confederation (ITUC), I recently led organised
labour across the world to a meeting with the
IMF and the World Bank.
"I told them point blank that their one-stop
recommendation on subsidy removal and other
sundry policy recommendations to the third world
are not working and will not work."
He said that there was no country in the world
where IMF's recommendations had worked "or
are working.''
According to Wabba, Nigeria should be cautious
in considering the options suggested by the IMF.
''I saw that many media houses are trying to
amplify that the IMF has recommended that
subsidy should be removed.
"In the first instance, is there a subsidy? This is
a question we have not been able to answer.
"And I want to corroborate with what President
Buhari said years back that subsidy is actually
corruption and that whoever is subsidising is
aiding corruption and we stand by that position.
"In fact, that has remained a consistent position
of NLC. We can kill that issue of subsidy if we
refine our products for our domestic use and it is
not rocket science.
"Very soon, we are going to forward a document
to the government on that,'' he stated.
He noted that "countries like Venezuela are
celebrated because they stood their ground on
policies that must work for the people and not
for the capitalist.''
According to him, our own case is a sorry one
and the situation is even laughable.
"You own crude oil, you pay for it to be extracted
from the ground, you pay for it to be taken
outside to be refined, you pay for the tax to
where you took it to and you also pay to bring it
back to your country for consumption.
"This is simply the pathetic story of Nigeria. God
Almighty has already given us this resource in
abundance, why should our citizens have to suffer
to get it for use?
"In the first place, we should only be talking
about subsidy if actually, we do not produce this
"But whereas we are producing it and in
abundance in that matter, yet we suffer like we
don't even own a drop of it.
"This is the shameful ordeal Nigerians go
through. It is really a funny situation,'' he said.
Wabba said that if petroleum was refined in the
country, the word "subsidy'' would be a thing of
the past.
On the public declaration of Nigeria as the host
of the forthcoming meeting, the NLC president
said: "We must never forget the sacrifice of
Cuban people for the liberation of most African
"And also for decades, Nigerians have been
beneficiaries of Cuban government scholarships
and education, most especially in the medical
field,'' he said.
Also speaking, Mr Carlos Trejo, Cuban
Ambassador to Nigeria, commended the NLC
and the Nigerian government for their continued
support to ensure the freedom of the Cuban
Trejo said that Cuba has constantly been attacked
due to their support to the Venezuela government
to stand on policies that must work for the
"We will never abandon the duty to act in
solidarity with Venezuela. So we will continue to
call for support for our sovereignty from African
countries, among others that can support us," he
