Super event at Sugar Grove Nature Center: 71 participants donated an awesome total of $1,590 to Heartland Head Start which will be used to upgrade their playgrounds! In our ninth run for Heartland, we easily topped the 2006 record of $698. Thanks so much to everyone for your support and a special thanks to Shady Hollow Trail Runners for the $500 donated in return for volunteering at their Evergreen Lake Ultra trail race. Several ABC runners and friends of Heartland Head Start spent a fun 5 hours volunteering. Volunteers included Deb Schumann, Brett Leifheit, Sharon Cochran, David & Darlene Weber, Meg & Merlin Anderson.
Thanks so much to our hosts: Angela Funk (Director, Sugar Grove Nature Center), Whitney Chesher (Outreach & Communications Specialist at Heartland Head Start), Sharon Cochran (member of Friends of Heartland Head Start), and David & Darlene Weber (members of Friends of Heartland Head Start).
We had a great mix of ABC run veterans and newbies. Among the newbies was a group from the Be Strong gym. Thanks, Drew Witted, for encouraging your group to join us. It was an inspiration to see Matt DeMatteo power his conventional wheelchair to a PR distance of 4 miles.
The menu was awesome as usual with casseroles, coffee cake, bagels & cream cheese, fruit, cookies, snack items, coffee, orange juice, apple juice and so much more. With so many food contributions, I was unable to keep track of who brought what. Thanks to DoubleTree hotels for adding the batch of cookies.
The funds raised by all nine runs for Heartland add up to a heartwarming total of $6,239. Thanks so much to every participant for your fellowship, sharing food, and generous financial support. Your support helps Heartland Head Start achieve their mission to "enhance the lives of children and families by providing a comprehensive child and family development program for 3-5 year old children and their families who meet the federal guidelines in McLean and Livingston counties in Central Illinois."

Is Britain going to become the new '21st century exporting superpower'?
22 August 2018
On Tuesday, Dr Liam Fox, the UK Secretary of State for International Trade announced the government export strategy to make Britain a new '21st century exporting superpower'.
According to this strategy, the UK government aims to increase the export ratio as a proportion of GDP from 30% to 35%. In order to achieve this ambitious goal, it plans to streamline processes and provide more customised support for businesses to raise productivity, boost wages, and protect employment across the country. According to government estimates, there are about 400,000 businesses in the UK which have the potential to start exporting. Dr Fox said Britain was 'punching above its weight' in terms of exporting, but had fallen 'short of its full potential'.
While this plan sounds ambitious and beneficial in 'theory', it is worth having a closer look at the details of the newly unveiled strategy.
First, exporting forms a key pillar of the UK economy and contributes 30% to UK GDP. International trade has vastly increased over the past decades, resulting in numerous bilateral and multilateral trade agreements the world over. Thus, it is important to leverage this growth in and beyond Europe, for example, in the growing economies of Asia and the emerging markets, including Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS).
In the UK context, 99% of all enterprises constitute SMEs. Many SMEs in the UK lack the skills, expertise, and financial and human resources to start exporting. As a result, according to the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB), support from the government is needed.
However, the export plan also raises many questions, and certain important aspects seem to be not addressed sufficiently in the strategy.
For example, the European Union (EU) is currently the biggest trading partner for the UK, amounting to £274 billion in exports to the EU (44% of all UK exports), and £341 billion imports (53% of all UK imports) in 2017. What will happen to UK-EU trade after Brexit? Given a potential 'no-deal' Brexit scenario, what is the UK export strategy to the EU? What are the potential effects of Brexit on UK exporters, in particular SME exporters? UK businesses are likely to be hit hard from a 'no-deal' Brexit as free access to the Single Market will be lost. If Britain exported as a 'third country' to the EU under WTO rules, tariffs on UK products would be imposed that can range from 10%-15% for clothing to a staggering 30%-40% tariffs for agricultural products.Another aspect, which is not adequately addressed in the strategy, is the lack of a timeframe on when the goal of 35% exports is achieved. 1 year? 5 years? 10 years? A strategy without a timeline seems not very aspirational and may lead to a lack of accountability.
It should also be noted that the majority of international trade tends to be 'regional', and not 'global'. Most international trade is conducted within regional trading blocs rather than across regions. Distance matters in international trade.
In conclusion, the UK has a lot of potential to develop the export sector. The current 30% export ratio as a proportion of UK GDP is rather low compared to other countries (e.g. Germany 47.2%, EU average 44.6%, South Korea 43.1%, France 30.9%). The 'Made in UK' brand has a strong reputation around the world, especially in Asia and Europe, and this could facilitate exporting from the UK to the world.
The intention of the British government to develop a formalised export strategy is to be applauded. Many UK firms will need pragmatic support for exporting, such as finding overseas distributors, attending international trade shows, and translation services. In this context, it is important to raise awareness of the benefits of exporting and improve the export readiness of firms.
Overall, talk is good, but action is better. The three key questions of an international market strategy: 'When?, Where?, How?' (i.e., timeframe, export markets, foreign market entry methods) seem to be not adequately addressed in the UK government export plan.
The question remains: "Is it realistic and feasible to develop Britain as a new '21st century exporting superpower'?"
The export plan seems 'high on aspiration', as indicated by the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB), but rather low on specifics and details. It is in the interest of all UK businesses, the UK economy, and, indeed, the society as a whole, to achieve positive outcomes resulting from the UK government export strategy.

Dan Hoover has more on the ongoing vendetta the anti-immigration Ron Paul supporters have against Lindsey.
Their numbers are uncertain, as is whether they represent the GOP's mainstream activists or an angry fringe, but there's no doubt about the level of their dissatisfaction with Graham, who's up for re-election in 2008. The rhetoric is increasingly tough.
In an e-mail to "Fellow Republicans, Conservatives, Constitutionalists, and other Patriotic Americans," Greenville activist Chris Golden urged them to show up at the meeting, ostensibly to sway committee members to approve a resolution censuring Graham for supporting immigration reform legislation that many of them considered an amnesty bill. Golden is the Travelers Rest precinct's executive committeeman, according to county GOP Chairman Samuel Harms."This is a full-blown war between the grassroots and the GOP establishment," Golden wrote.
Greenville's GOP executive committee censured Graham on Aug. 6, citing the immigration bill.
Golden touched on what he said are the stakes Thursday evening, saying, "We won the first battle in Greenville. However, the next battle (which may be the decisive battle) will be held this Thursday night…"
To opponents like Golden, a second censure resolution from the GOP's heartland could sweep across the state and help produce a viable primary challenger to Graham. So far, there are challengers, but their viability is subject to question.
Scott Farmer, Graham's campaign manager, is shrugging it off, publicly, anyway. Describing the senator as a tremendous conservative voice for South Carolina, he says, "If some people want to censure Lindsey Graham and President Bush, even though they agree with them on 90 percent of the issues, they'll do it."…"
And from an earlier Palmetto Scoop posting about the Ron Paul spammers after Lindsey.

for as long as i can remember, i have always wanted to travel to hawaii. crazy enough, we planned this trip only 4 hours before before flying out. not quite how i imagined it going, but i wouldn't have changed a thing!
for as long as i can remember, i have always wanted to travel to hawaii. crazy enough, we planned this trip only 4 hours before before flying out. not quite how i imagined it going, but i wouldn't have changed a thing!
some of my favorite travel moments happen when i decide to just pull over on the side of the road and explore. i felt so lucky to catch the sunset in the gorgeous palm tree field (which i am pretty sure was surrounded by a local lombark, indonesia farm). watching the sun set fire to the sky through the majestic palm branches was so incredible.
i frolicked and twirled, attempted to befriend the cows (it was major fail) and watched the sun go down in awe. shortly after the sun began to set, i realized i was twirling in little plants filled with needle-like spikes that my dress so kindly was collecting to remember the special moment. i now have ankles filled with scratches as a tiny keep-sake as well. alas, even my battle wounds couldn't ruin such a beautiful moment.
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10
the one question i ask myself before i buy anything is always, "is it comfortable?" let's face it, some pieces may look beautiful and glamorous on, but if it's not comfortable, will you actually wear it? or better yet, will you actually want to wear it?
i fell into this trap one new year's eve when purchasing an all sequined dress. the cost was just right, and i felt like a hollywood star walking down the red carpet in it. however, was it comfy? no. i knew this, but i figured if it looks this good, then beauty is pain, right? no. beauty should not be that kind of pain.
30 minutes into the evening, i was feeling the music and letting myself dance to my hearts' content. this lasted all of 5 minutes after my uncomfortable dress somehow turned against me. as i was moving my arms up and down to the beat of the music, it just so happens that my arms were also moving to the sharp edges of the sequins on my dress.
this little number has comfy written all over it. at an under $40 price point this pink dress [that also comes in green and grey] is an absolute must.
it's perfect for the summer to fall transition. the dress it self is made of a thicker and warmer material, yet is still lightweight and incredibly comfortable with pockets. dresses + pockets are always a win. and can we talk about the ruffle on the sleeve? it's definitely my favorite part. it's flirty and fun but not overbearing. basically the perfect combo.
i paired this dress with a light weight scarf and booties to welcome the fall transitional weather. if you're somewhere where the temps are still hitting the 90's and above [bless you], swap out the booties and scarf for some fun kicks like these and viola, you're weather appropriate. the dress fits tts, however i would recommend ordering a size up if you are on the taller side and don't care to have your backside peeking out when bending/sitting.
this scarf is another must-have. it's long in length which allows for multiple ways to wrap it and create new and fun looks. one of my biggest pet peeves is short scarf that you can't even tie around your neck. i mean, what's the point?!
this clare v. clutch goes just about everywhere with me. it is an investment piece and does cost a pretty penny. however, you know i love finding a good dupe and y'all, i found the perfect copy cat! it's incredible affordable and looks great! [see "shop the post" below].
in other news, i've been trying to keep true to my new years resolution this year and pay it forward with compliments. ever realize the only time you pick up a phone to call a company to "speak to the manager" is to complain? how about we call to brag on an employee for giving great customer service. or compliment a stranger because you like the scarf their wearing [don't be creepy though…] you never know what kind of impact you could have on someone's day or even life. a little kindness goes a long way. so let's flood the lives of others with kindness and love!
so encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing | 1 thessalonians 5:11

ah, new zealand. where does one begin? i'll do a full blog recap of my travels and tips later, but to give you a snippet, new zealand is amazing. david and i honeymooned in fiji then zipped over to new zealand to explore both the north and south island. the south island was by far my favorite, but the north island sure did have its' hidden gems.
on this particular day, my new hubby and i [that's so fun to say :)] went wine tasting outside of queenstown. queenstown is one of the coolest cities i've ever visited. so, i don't know why i was surprised when the atmosphere of the wineries was just like that of queenstown. everyone was as friendly and easy-going as it comes. most people in the actual town are not from queenstown and have quite interesting and adventurous stories to tell. needless to say, making friends in the area is not a hard thing to do. so if you decide to visit, and i recommend you do, strike up a conversation with a stranger. they won't stay a stranger for long.
the wine itself is delicious and drumroll please, super inexpensive! the pours are enormous and charcuterie plates are phenomenal. we made it to 3 wineries after getting a late start to our day and this dress was beyond perfect for the occasion.
new zealand weather is rather pleasant. we went during early fall, so the days were warm and the evenings brought a chill. this free people dress was light enough to keep me cool and enough dress to give me a little warmth. the baby blue hues are right on cue with my current blue crush. for whatever reason, i cannot get enough of baby blue these days. bring on all the blues! [i'm wearing an xs for size reference. free people runs just a tad on the large size and i am usually between an xs and s in other clothing]
these marc fisher wedges are the best wedges i have ever slid my size 7.5 feet into. i walked in them for 5+ hours without a single complaint. walked up and down the hills of new zealand and explored through the wineries, and no complaints. i don't know how they did it, but they did. the most comfortable wedge has been born. these shoes are worth every penny. you can't put a price tag on this kind of comfort.
now to the clutch. this $22 show-stopping pom pom clutch has sold out at least 3 times this spring. with that being said, i don't expect it to stay in stock for too long. it's the perfect spring and summer clutch. the pom poms add a fun summery flair while the large envelope size allows for plenty to fit inside. and at $22, you can't go wrong. this is the perfect summer staple.
david and i recently moved to south korea and have been house hunting in the area the past month. prayers that we find the right place are always welcome!

There is in any chance or least designing,
say, of leaves upon leaves in flickered patterns
(as twilights do to them—or soft-lit mornings)
a point at which to recognize
such things are what they are—a change
from this to that—it is enough—
whatever this may mean—it is enough.
Yet we impose self-need for redesigning
what we admire or love but need to change
to our extended meaning of the patterns.
There is a single force to recognize:
It's in the very movement, say, of mornings
unfolding, splendid, to the wakened; mornings
that seem not swift or slow enough
for our held moment when we recognize
the purest art as art's own chance designing
or the grope to trust the seeking mind's own patterns.
Something long-refused will trust the change
when we can yield ourselves to our own changing.
There is a prayer that just belongs to mornings
laying out the day in each day's patterns
easy to fit if we, attuned enough,
can sort them out. And even words, designing
themselves—like these—are to recognize
that words but shape the thoughts to recognize
the very evolution that is change—
through every phase of being—even to designing
prayer after prayer on soulful mornings
when we dwell on this, when we leave time enough
to contemplate The Pattern in the patterns—
the complex or the simple way the patterns,
say, of leaves in flickering response together, recognize
all they fit within, the motion and the light; it is enough
to comprehend the unrelenting change
as if all life begins with just such mornings
dwindling into twilight, into night, designing
patterns that are known as death that does not change,
to recognize the worth in each of life's dear mornings
that trust enough what life has just begun designing.
(This poem won First Prizes at the Ina Coolbrith Contest in 1995
and the Artists Embassy Int'l Dancing Poetry Contest in 1996)
Listen—the bright leaves rustle
on the old, white trees—fretting against
white bark, the blue wind assisting.
The mottled shadows offer quick response.
Listen—touches of gold light
fill in where the red leaves struggle free.
The white trees glow with light.
(after "Aunt Leaf" by Mary Oliver)
always me—
in long ago
tug of being
child within child
evolving into
future self.
I watch her playing:
pepper tree
no sibling
she doesn't remember
being ten
or eleven
years fuse
like stuck pages
she lives in patches
self within self
Sound of wind in sudden bursts
in yellow autumn sunlight,
howling free—letting be—all
the restrictions of the mind—
in the half, into the whole—of
listening. What of such a sound
to the ever-lonely—or the
seldom lonely—there—outside
my late-morning window—
interrupting my book, my music.
Come to me, it cries—
has always cried—come to me.
Home along the leaves that have fallen from
her gold tree. She smiles goodbye and hello
with the same face. She waits in the same old
window for your wave. She remembers every-
thing about you. You are returning from her
one more time. She will embrace you and
weep. Her eloquent tree will watch through
the window and twirl its leaves in celebration;
your connection to the tree's birds will be the
beginning of conversation. The sunlight will
cut its sharp path along the definitive branches.
All will be told in the voices of women who
know what to say to each other. Her gold tree
will sing in the air with its brightness and shed
more leaves. "These are its tears," you will offer,
and she will know what you mean and once
more kiss you goodbye.
A black leaf outside my door,
a rain-leaf hiding from the rain
—glossy as fear, or its opposite,
release—but to what end—
I am the sympathetic one
who loves it.
(first pub. in The Aurean)
Today's LittleNip:
Another ragged leaf to remind us
of other ragged-leaf times
when we always noted the awful
and the drear and offered love.
Not that we're kind or sympathetic
to the inevitable ruin that is,
but that we should somehow
commiserate with what, though dead,
is here among us—dropped or fallen,
stepped on, tossed about—even
picked up now and then like this
to say whatever there is to say about it.
—Medusa, with thanks to Joyce Odam for today's poems and pix based on our Seed of the Week: Leaves of Change.
So, go for it! Those sparks might fly into a truly great poem! And send your SOWs (including photos and artwork) to firstname.lastname@example.com/. (Never a deadline on SOWS.)

Daijiworld Media Network - Bengaluru (SP)
Bengaluru, Jun 27: On Wednesday June 26, an election petition was filed in the high court against Prajwal Revanna, son of minister H D Revanna, seeking to annul the latter's election to the Lok Sabha. It was filed by defeated BJP candidate from Hassan constituency, A Manju.
Manju has alleged in his petition that Prajwal had filed false affidavit during the Lok Sabha election. He wants the high court to cancel the Lok Sabha membership of Prajwal. The petition may come before one of the benches of the high court in a couple of weeks.
Prajwal Revanna (left) and A Manju
Manju has stated in his petition that the assets declared by Prajwal far exceed his known sources of income. He also alleged that several details provided in Prajwal's affidavit are wrong. He pointed out that Prajwal, who has claimed that he does not have any income, has said that he has lent money to others. He also has got government property registered in his name. He also has concealed information about several other assets he possesses," Manju has claimed.
And get killed - of course a natural death
Did he ask same question to Amit Shah when his sons wealth accumulation increased 5000% more within a year?
JNBIf you r so sure you ask the question and file a case. More o er Manjus opponent is not Amith Shas son.
Actually Grand son Prajwal has provided false information in affidavit based on advise from Grand father & Father, Mother, Kummy Uncle, Anitha Aunty. He's gonna be in big soup if HC of K'Nataka pulls him up & dismisses LS poll result in Hassana.
Mr. Manju might have lost heavy amount during election time and he lost. He is trying to compensate the lost amount
As per his declaration of assets during nomination filing for LS polls , he doubled his wealth during MLA tenure
lets wait and see what the court says..
How come EVM kuthantra back fired at Mandya.
Thats exactly what it is ..... 90 % of the counting saw a see-saw battle of lead of hardly 500 votes and in last three rounds all of a sudden won by more than a Lakh Votes ? Daal hi Pura Kaala Hai.....
Des he have the guts to ask for a Election without any EVM's ...
Naach na jaane aangan tedha :-)
JossyDo you have guts to file case against EVM /EC of India?
This is nothing but height of politics and settle scores for rivalry

SIMON Fox proved he was up for the Challenge after completing one of the toughest events for veteran runners – with just 123 seconds to spare!
The 56-year-old finished the gruelling 48-mile Josh Naylor Challenge moments from the 15-hour cut off mark.
Fox, who is chairman of Darwen Dashers, feared he would not complete the charity-raising event but thanks to the encouragement of his support team – that included runners from a number of East Lancashire clubs – he completed the course on the hills of the Lake District.
"Towards the end of the final leg, I had slowed and it was touch and go if I could make it in time," said Fox who finished in 14 hours 57 minutes 57 seconds.
"But thanks to my support crew who were shouting words of encouragement, I managed to keep going and finished the course just in time. But it was close."
Fox, who raised more than £1,700 for Prostate Cancer UK, was met at the finishing line at Greendale Bridge by 'king of the fells' Naylor who set up the charity-raising challenge in 1990.
And he admitted it was the toughest thing he has done.
"I used to do 24-hour mountain bike racing on a single speed years ago and I thought that was tough," he said.
"But this took far more out of me. Maybe it was due to being older but the fatigue was intense. It was definitely the toughest thing I have done."
The challenge is widely regarded as an old man's Bob Graham – a 106km fell run – and the route has become the benchmark challenge for the mature runner.
The challenge is also know as 'the crossing' as it traverses the Lake District and is split into four legs.
It involves climbing 30 tops, crossing some 48-miles of mountain terrain and ascending nearly 17,000 feet.
The route starts in Pooley Bridge, Ullswater and finishes at Greendale Bridge, Wasdale.
Each age group has a specific time limit varying between 12 and 24 hours with different times for men and women. There is no emphasis on record times and pacers are mandatory for safety reasons.
Fox said he was hampered by poor conditions when he set off from Pooley Bridge at 5am. But he said his supporter runners more than played their part in helping him negotiate the tricky route.
"It had rained the previous day, overnight and I had bad conditions for a lot of the challenge," he said.
"But I had pacers and helpers, not just from Dashers, but also Rossendale Harriers, Clayton le Moors Harriers, Red Rose and Eryri Harriers.
"The first two legs went well and I was on schedule. But by leg three, I was suffering and slowing.
"I had a bad patch climbing Bowfell. My supporters were great and kept me going.
"Their navigation of the course was excellent and they spurred me on and after finishing just inside the cut off mark, Joss Naylor who is fell running legend and originator of the challenge was there to welcome me in.
"My thanks go out to all who supported me and donated to the charity."
Fox said Darwen Dashers are always on the look for new members
"We are a very inclusive club with a great beginners section and cater for runners of all abilities," he added.

According to the CQC's own figures, to date (April 2018) they have given ratings to 17,498 residential care services and 9,039 home care services. This means that a total of 26,537 adult social care services have been given ratings since the introduction of the 'new' inspection regime in 2014. Of these, a total of 560 were rated as 'outstanding', 20,041 were rated 'good', 5,111 were rated as 'requires improvement' and 857 were rated as 'inadequate'. This means that although the vast majority of services (approximately 77.5%) were either 'good' or 'outstanding', a significant minority (approximately 22.5%) were either in serious trouble or were in need of urgent improvement. And in case those providers whose services were rated as 'good' are patting themselves on the back, it might be worth mentioning that 'good' should really be seen as 'adequate', i.e. as what you would expect from this kind of service, rather than being 'good' in the normal sense of the world.
The key question, though, is: what do these figures tell us about what's going on in these services? More specifically, what do they tell us about what's going wrong? Interpreting such data is never as straightforward as it might seem, but a good place to start would be to look at what the CQC report actually says about the service. As many readers may be aware, the CQC inspects all health and social care services by asking five questions, which equate to five key 'domains' of the service. The inspection team looks at whether each service is: safe, effective, caring, responsive, and well-led. Furthermore, each domain is rated individually (as 'outstanding', 'good', requires improvement' or 'inadequate') before the ratings are aggregated into one, overall rating.
Let's suppose that a report for a particular care home or home care service is rated as 'inadequate' in terms of being safe, effective and well-led (which, not surprisingly perhaps, would give it an overall rating of 'inadequate'). How do we 'deconstruct' these ratings to get a better understanding of what they tell us about the culture of the service? To start with it would be helpful to see what the CQC says about each of these domains, and the specific issues that they highlight as being a problem. So, for the sake of argument, let's assume that the report states that there were issues around lack of staff training, high staff turnover and a heavy reliance upon agency staff, poor medicine management, a lack of personalised care, and poor systems of monitoring and evaluating the service.
At this point it might be tempting to home in on one particular area and then 'extrapolate' it to explain problems in other areas. So in this case we might look at the staff turnover figures and the heavy reliance on agency staff. This might explain the lack of staff training (what provider is going to invest in training agency staff who may not be there in six weeks time?), and also poor medicine management (are agency staff going to be properly trained in this area?). It could also explain the lack of personalised care, which may be due to a lack of staff continuity and consequently a lack of opportunity for staff to get to know each client. On the other hand, this does not explain why there is high staff turnover in the first place. Furthermore, it does not explain the poor systems of monitoring and evaluation.
Another place to start might be with the poor systems of monitoring and evaluation themselves. How might this explain the other problems? One way to look at this is to think about the impact of such poor systems; essentially they would mean that the management of the service would not really know what was going on – and more critically, where things were going wrong.
This raises a more fundamental issue, which is often overlooked when thinking about quality assurance and the whole question of monitoring and evaluation: the 'gap' between what's actually going on in a service and what management know about what's actually going on. It's also the problem that regulators such as the CQC face: they rely on evidence collected over a few days (at most) of inspection, but can this really tell them what's happening on a day-to-day level in the service? There is no easy answer to this problem, and it's one that managers, management consultants, regulators and auditors constantly struggle with.[1].
Going back to our example: if the management of a service does not know that there are issues with staff training, staff turnover, medicines management and personalised care, where does the problem really lie? After all, it could be argued that these problems shouldn't be arising in the first place, regardless of whether they are being picked up in audits, feedback questionnaires, supervision, etc. However, this seems to portray a rather idealised (and somewhat naive?) picture of what actually happens in residential and home care services. Things are continually 'going wrong' in such services, in the sense that, like any organisation, they are in a state of constant flux and change.
In fact, it could be argued that if things weren't 'going wrong', at least to a certain extent, it would mean that the service wasn't functioning at all, that it was essentially moribund. In my view, the purpose of management is to 'manage' this process of constant flux and change in way that (hopefully) continually drives up standards, or at the very least, prevents them from falling. And in order to do this, managers need to know what's going on in all aspects of the service, and this comes back to the question of how best to (continually) monitor and evaluate the service.
Having carried out a good number of CQC inspections I would argue that a great deal of the problems that I encountered would not have occurred if there had been effective systems and processes of monitoring and evaluation in place. And, most crucially, if the information that these systems and processes had generated had actually been acted upon. So going back to the original question regarding how to interpret or deconstruct CQC ratings, and what they tell you about the service, my first question would be: how much of this is news to the management, to the provider?
- Or rather, one they ought to be struggling with! Often, I think, it is taken for granted that the data equals reality, rather than a particular, abstracted version of it [↩]

You've been keeping tabs on flights to Paris and setting up airfare alerts to every major city in Asia. Except—helloooo—there're some pretty spectacular places right here in our own backyard, which is why Lonely Planet just released its list of the ten best U.S. destinations for 2018.
At the very top: California's redwood coast. We guess West Coast is really the best coast after all—have you seen those magnificent 20-stories-high beauties and the gorgeous Pacific coast beaches? It stretches 175 miles from the southern Humboldt County line to the Oregon border and includes quaint picturesque towns like Eureka and Crescent City. And if the landscape isn't enough, the local breweries and cozy coffee shops you pass along the way are definitely worth a visit, too.
Best of all, to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Save the Redwoods League, entry to 40 redwood state parks is free for anyone on every second Saturday each month.
Hey, if we looked that good at 2,000 years old, we'd deserve an award, too…

|In every society people take alcohol. But I have not found a community where alcohol is accepted as a completely good thing. Apart from consumers of this drug, most people regard alcohol as an unwanted substance.\\ \\ In Acholi traditional society, alcohol was used. The manner in which is was consumed, the occasion for it and its preparation differs from what it is now. Acholi people used to prepare their drink from millet flour which they would allow to ferment, roast then mix with water to ferment again for two days. It was then filtered.and served. This is //kwete//. It was a good drink; taken by elderly men in their late 40's and above. Drinks were taken on occasions like after communal work, at funerals,to welcome guests, at marriage ceremonies or at any other important ritual. In most cases alcohol was not consumed for mere passing time. There was a meaning and a reason for it. Youngsters, the youth and women were not usually part of the drinking crew.\\ The manner in which alcohol is used this days is not at all pleasing to sober minds. The kind of drink taken, drives one crazy\\ \\ Today people in this land take both local brew alongside modern ones. Local brew includes cassava gin called //arege//. It is made from cassava flour more or less the way //kwete// is brewed but is distilled after fermentation. Another local brew which has high market in the camps is made from bananas. It is " imported" from south-western Uganda. //Kesese-kasese// is its name It is a more potent gin which drives young men crazy. It's their favorite.
|\\ \\ The traumatic time that our young men experienced because of the long war is responsible for their irresponsible drinking habit. School drop-outs see no value in life; so take to drinking. Men whose families have broken also bury their frustration in booze. Jobless youths who have undergone some education do fall prey to the "culture"\\ \\ It can not go without say that the women-folk do not drink. A good many of them too make up the crew. Some young women whose families have broken, or are frustrated in life make friends with the glass.\\ \\ I have mentioned local brew. Modern drinks also play some role in the drinking arena. The most commonly consumed type of drink in this case are the drinks packed in sackets.There are many of them. This kind of packaging is the most damaging because is easy to carry. Students carry it to class un-noticed. Drivers love it because no one notices they are carrying something. Even some people in offices love it so much.\\ As our people return home, the youth especislly should :\\
|* be made aware of the dangers of alcohol,
|* be engaged in some productive work,
|* have some other varried leisure activities.
|* be engaged in some skill training programmes and
|* for those still able be re-absorbed in formal schools.
|I would like to conclude that **AN IDLE MIND IS THE DEVIL'S WORKSHOP** so idleness and redundancy must be eliminated.\\ \\ **-JOKONDINO-**\\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ '

Sometimes, Financial Market Predictions Are Correct By Jonathan D. Glater
The price of shares of for-profit higher education provider Apollo Education Group, owner of the University of Phoenix, rose nearly 7 percent the day after the election of Donald Trump, and kept rising in the following weeks. The price had been trending downward in 2015.
Various news organizations have written about similar post-election, upward bumps in the sector. Now comes the announcement on Wednesday from the Education Department that the Trump Administration intends to delay implementation of Obama-era rules aimed at curbing misconduct in the for-profit sector.
So we have some evidence that investors' expectations were accurate.
Betsy DeVos, the education secretary, in a statement described the move as part of a "regulatory reset." She did not explain precisely the reason for the reset, but more on that in a moment.
The rules, slated to take effect on July 1st, were already the product of a negotiated rulemaking process. The Education Department announced a new negotiated rulemaking on the regulations, which addressed borrower defenses to repayment and the "gainful employment" requirement.
The defense to repayment regulations sought to incorporate student borrowers' ability to repay in the assessment of institutional eligibility for participation in federal student aid programs. The idea was, if a significant share of student borrowers struggled with their debts, perhaps the educational program should not be eligible to participate. A description of the rules is here.
What was wrong with these rules? They were "overly burdensome and confusing for institutions of higher education," according to the Education Department statement.
The borrower defense to repayment rules create a procedure for student borrowers to contest the obligation to repay, if they can show the education provider made a misrepresentation or that the provider failed to perform on its contract with a student. The description is here.
On these, Secretary DeVos cited college and university concerns about the "excessively broad definitions of substantial misrepresentation and breach of contract, the lack of meaningful due process protections for institutions and 'financial triggers' under the new rules."
Basically, it seems that neither set of rules was popular with the regulated industry, hence the "reset."
Prior to the election, there was good reason to believe that a Trump Administration might be sympathetic to the for-profit education sector. After all, then-candidate Trump was associated with Trump University, which shortly after the election last fall settled civil lawsuits filed on behalf of former students. That settlement was approved by a court a few months ago.
But this week's announcement is public executive action explicitly beneficial to the for-profit sector.
All of this is putting aside the question of whether the Education Department can unilaterally put the brakes on the rules. In its press release, the Department cites section 705 of the Administrative Procedures Act – do not worry, that is not a rabbit hole this post will explore in depth. But note the language of that provision, 5 U.S.C. §705, here in full:
When an agency finds that justice so requires, it may postpone the effective date of action taken by it, pending judicial review. On such conditions as may be required and to the extent necessary to prevent irreparable injury, the reviewing court, including the court to which a case may be taken on appeal from or on application for certiorari or other writ to a reviewing court, may issue all necessary and appropriate process to postpone the effective date of an agency action or to preserve status or rights pending conclusion of the review proceedings.
Postponement is discretionary, not mandatory, under this provision. (The "pending judicial review" is a challenge to the defense to repayment rules filed less than a month ago by an association of private postsecondary schools, including for-profits; a link to the complaint is here.)
Unfortunately for Apollo Group shareholders, they voted way back in May 2016 to take the company private, in a transaction completed in February. Perhaps they should have held on.

2015 Toyota Corolla in Auburn
2015 Toyota Corolla in Auburn
The routine of everyday driving can easily start to take on a the feel of being a little bit boring. But having a car that promotes a little bit of excitement could help take that boring feel out of the everyday driving routine. At Doxon Toyota, we have a 2015 Toyota Corolla in Auburn that can easily give your driving a little more excitement.
Just the look of the Corolla's exterior is enough to give you a chill down your spine. And as you go further into the interior you might get a different feeling, the feeling of comfort and access. Either way, whether you are on the outside or on the inside, the Toyota Corolla is a car that can give you a thrill that you may have never had driving before.
2015 Toyota Corolla Powertrain
When it comes to the Corolla, it really gives you an engine and transmission package that really fits well. The 2015 Toyota Corolla in Auburn comes in five different trim packages: the L, LE, LE Eco and the S. All trim packages come with one well-rounded standard engine.
That engine is the 16v DOHC 1.8L four-cylinder that uses Direct Injection to pump out 132 hp and 128 lb-ft of torque. The only trim package that gets a little bit more hp while using the same engine is the LE Eco. The LE Eco gets to enjoy eight extra hp due to a higher compression ratio and a revised valvetrain.
The LE Eco gets to enjoy some other special treatment as well. Along with a standard transmission the LE Eco has a six-speed manual option for a little bit of extra fun. But there is no need to believe that if you can't option up you can't have any fun. The standard Continuously Variable automatic transmission (CVT) with a manual shifting mode can offer every driver seeking a thrill plenty of driving fun.
Body of the 2015 Toyota Corolla in Auburn
With bold body lines, available 17-inch rims, aggressive front grille and standard LED headlights, the 2015 Toyota Corolla in Auburn stands out in the four-door sedan crowd. Standing out even more is the LE Eco and S trim packages that receive a very sporty looking spoiler. But that spoiler is not just for looks, it also helps out in the aerodynamic area. In fact, the whole sedan has spent many hours in the wind tunnel with Toyota's engineers to give the Corolla the least amount of drag as possible.
Stop in to see us at Doxon Toyota, we have plenty of time to talk to you about the new 2015 Toyota Corolla in Auburn. We can schedule you a time to come in and take one for a test drive. We are open seven days a week. We are located 3405 Auburn Way N, Auburn, WA. 98002.

These Public Health Pests endanger our health and contaminate our products, eradication must be a priority to avoid food contamination and disease.
There are mainly two species of Cockroaches which invade our premises in the UK.
German Cockroach -The adult German cockroach (Blattella germanica) is about 5/8 inch long, overall light brown in colour and has wings which cover the abdomen. Commonly known as the steam fly due to the hot environments where it is often found around cookers, dishwashers and boilers. The German cockroach carries its egg case (Ootheca) for around a month then drops it off a day before the eggs hatch. The 8mm long Ootheca contains 30 to 40 eggs which hatch in 2 to 4 days after being deposited.
Oriental Cockroaches: - Females produce egg cases and carry them protruding from the tip of the abdomen for about 30 hours. Egg cases are then generally glued to a surface in a hidden location, usually a warm sheltered spot where food will be available for emerging nymphs. Egg cases are 9mm long, brown, and purse shaped. Up to 16 eggs can be laid in the egg capsule (Ootheca), which consists of two rows of eight eggs each. Immature cockroaches emerge from egg cases in 6 to 8 weeks and require 6 to 12 months to mature. Adult cockroaches can live up to one year, during which females produce an average of 150 young. This cockroach prefers to feed on starchy foods but (like other roaches) will adapt to survive.
The Biscuit Beetle (Stegobium paniceum) is a small reddish to reddish brown beetle which is 2 to 3.5mm in length. The Biscuit Beetle is a member of the "Anobiidae" family which are wood borers and include the common furniture beetle and death watch beetle.
HABITAT: Attacks stored food products, flour, bread, soup powders and spices etc.
The Hide, Bone & Larder Beetle (Dermestes Spp) consists of four main types of Dermestes Beetle, all are a similar shape - 6 to 12 mm in length. The Hide Beetle has a few white scales on the wing cases and is silvery white underneath; the larder beetle has a greyish band with dark spots across the front half of the wing cases.
BIOLOGY: The Dermestes Beetle will feed on any material of animal origin. A dead mouse or bird in a roof space or void can be a source of infestation. In the kitchen, scraps of meat and cheese are consumed. Occasionally items such as fur coats and museum stuffed animal collections are attacked.
HABITAT: Common pests of homes and industrial premises. Often found where meat and bones are processed and in kitchen areas.
Stored Product Insects (SPI) are as the title says insects which attack food in raw material or processed stages.
Food stuffs are attacked by beetles, moths, mites in both adult and larval stages. When developing from eggs to adults a considerable amount of food is consumed, resulting in product weight loss, contamination from insects and larvae, blockages to machinery due to moth webbing, infested grain will be downgraded to animal feed, hides can be damaged by beetle larvae holes and may be rendered valueless. Grain can germinate from heat and moisture produced during insect growth and Bacteria can also grow.

A quick introduction… To develop a web application tooling and workflow are very important. Taking the time to learn and master command line is not only highly recommended but it is required to make use of tools that will help you develop faster and gain more control of your workflow.
This post summarizes what you need to know to get going with command line as well sharing some personal recommendations on the setup of the command prompt on MAC OS X, but it applies to *nix as well.
##What is a Shell?
The Shell is an application that offers interactive console or terminal access to a computer system. It lets you interact with applications on your computer through command line. A command-line interface (CLI) is a mechanism for interacting with a computer operating system or software by typing commands to perform specific tasks, a command-line interpreter then receives, parses, and executes the requested user command.
Most operating systems offer a command line interface, but that doesn't mean the built-in version is best. MAC OS X comes with Terminal, however there's a terminal emulator for Mac OS X that is more customizable and does amazing things out-of-the-box, it's called iTerm. If you are using a windows machine I'd recommend you installing cygwin.
In order to use the command line prompt you will need to memorize commands. Start with the basic system commands, once you mastered that you'll catch up quickly with other tools such as gulp.js.
Sayanee runs a great podcast on tech tools called Build Podcast, I recommend you watching this episode to get started.

ZSH(Z Shell) is a powerful command interpreter for shell scripting, it is a modern Unix shell that is backward compatible with bash. The main features of zsh are the true auto tab completion and autocorrect, shared history over all terminals, history sub-string search and the ability to customize your prompt among many other.
So Why is Zsh better than Bash? In short:
- very costumizable prompt
- autocorrection
- fast autocompletion that also gives you a keyboard navigable completion list. Let's look at an example,
Kill <tab> ouput the list of current processes whereas bash displays a list of files in the current directory.
Here's what you need to do in order to install or update ZSH on MAC OS X:
Apple comes with the Bash as the default Shell. That might be fine for many users, but I as mentioned before I prefer Z shell, which is already included in Mac OS X Mavericks.
Out of the box Mac OS X version 10.8.x (Lion) comes with zsh version 4.3.11 (i386-apple-darwin12.0). However zsh is currently at version zsh 5.0.2 (x86_64-apple-darwin13.0). You can use Homebrew to install the newer version.
In order to use homebrew first you need need to install Command Line Tools for Xcode by running:
xcode-select --install or update to XCode5. The Command Line Tool package gives terminal users many commonly used tools, utilities, and compilers, including make, GCC, clang, perl, svn, git, size, strip, strings, libtool, cpp, what, and many other useful commands that are usually found in default linux installations.
Open the console and run
brew install zsh
Now in order to change the default shell to zsh run
chsh -s /bin/zsh
Verify your running zsh after opening new terminal with
ps -o comm $$
In iTerm settings make sure it is running zsh
Customizing the command prompt is different in different shells, I'm going to cover zsh here.
Zsh is widely used by the open source community and because of that there are many open sourced projects with snippets, functions, configurations, themes, plugins, modules you can leverage to personalize your shell prompt.
Oh-My-ZSH: the is most popular with over 600 contributors on github and many plugins that you can easily integrate. There's a similar project for windows called oh-my-cygwin
Zach Holman's dotfiles: features auto sourcing Zsh files, easy Zsh completion extensions, and a local bin folder for executables. The included Rakefile will symlink anything ending in .symlink to your ~ folder. What's great about Holman's dotfiles is the organization per topic - here you can read more about it. I believe since then people have started to follow this pattern. There are many dotfiles on github https://github.com/search?q=dotfiles and on the following link you will find a good selection and categorization http://dotfiles.github.io
YADR: it is collection of the best bits of all the top dotfile repos, vim and zsh plugins curated in one place, into a simple and cohesive way of working. It has many vim plugins (90+), all under one roof, working together, each plugin researched and configured to be at its best, often with better shortcut keys. Zsh plugins based on Prezto and all things are vimized: irb, postres command line, etc.
I'm currently using Oh-My-ZSH as base for my configuration. You can find the detailed installation steps and documention here. YADR has being staled for while and Prezto altough is very well documented doesn't have the community support oh-my-zsh has.

- The latissimus dorsi attaches from the spinous processes of T7-L5, posterior sacrum, and the posterior iliac crest to the medial lip of the bicipital groove of the humerus.
- Medially rotates the arm at the glenohumeral joint
- Adducts the arm at the glenohumeral joint
- Extends the arm at the glenohumeral joint
- Elevates the same-side (ipsilateral) pelvis at the lumbosacral joint.
- Anteriorly tilts the pelvis at the lumbosacral joint.
- The latissimus dorsi is the principal muscle involved in swimming the freestyle/crawl stroke. For this reason, it is sometimes referred to as "the swimmer's muscle" and is usually very well developed in swimmers.
- The latissimus dorsi has the same glenohumeral joint actions as the teres major (medial rotation, adduction, and extension).
- The latissimus dorsi and teres major comprise the posterior axillary fold of tissue.

Key Points
- In January 2013, year-on-year seasonally adjusted estimates of the quantity bought in the retail sector fell by 0.6%, putting a halt to the year-on-year growth seen in the retail sector since August 2011.
- Year-on-year estimates (non-seasonally adjusted) showed an overall fall in the quantity bought in small stores, in particular those with 0-9 employees, while large stores saw an increase. This was particularly marked in the food sector with feedback from small retailers suggesting that the heavy snow fall in the latter half of January affected sales. In contrast, feedback from large store retailers suggested that some of the increase in the quantity bought came from a rise in online shopping.
- The quantity bought in the food sector was estimated to have fallen 2.6% year-on-year (seasonally adjusted), to the lowest level since April 2004, providing the most downward pressure to the fall in the total quantity bought in the retail sector.
- In the food sector, the proportion of sales made online rose by 27.1% (non-seasonally adjusted) compared with January 2012, which equates to 3.7% of all food sector sales, the highest on record.
- This January, the overall proportion of non-seasonally adjusted online sales remained above the 10% mark, normally seen during the lead up to Christmas, which was 8.7% higher compared with January 2012.
- Looking at the monthly picture, (January 2013 compared with December 2012) both the seasonally adjusted quantity bought and the amount spent in the retail sector were estimated to have fallen by 0.6% and 0.4% respectively.
- The amount spent in the retail sector was unchanged in January 2013 compared with January 2012. Sales at petrol stations provided the main source of downward pressure to the amount spent in the retail sector. When sales at these stores are excluded the amount spent increased by 1.2%
- The January period covers the dates 30 December 2012 to 26 January 2013.
- Users are reminded that the figures contained within this release are estimates produced from a monthly survey of 5,000 retailers in Great Britain.
- Unless otherwise stated, the estimates in this release are seasonally adjusted.
