Health & Wellness
A 7-minute workout routine for the Holidays
The Holidays are fast approaching! That means lots of parties, hearty meals, sweets and treats! There aren't too many ways around it, especially when you want to please children and extended family. So, what's the secret to surviving the season of overindulgence and staying in shape, despite the numerous opportunities to undo all your year-long efforts? Try the 7-minute workout!
What's the 7-minute workout?
The 7-minute workout was designed by researchers from the Human Performance Institute (HPI) in Orlando, Florida and featured in the New York Times. Since then, this type of workout has spread at lightning speed on the Internet and through mobile apps.
The basis of the workout, which is High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), was developed over 20 years ago. It involves sets of intense activity intermingled with very short periods of rest.
As its name suggests, the 7-minute workout routine includes 12 exercises in 7 minutes. Each exercise is performed for 30 seconds followed by a 10-second rest between exercises.
Depending on time and needs, the workout can be performed a second and third time.
As little as 30 to 60 minutes of physical activity a week can have a beneficial effect on blood pressure levels.
7-minute workout exercises
- Jumping Jacks
- Wall sit
- Push-ups
- Abdominal crunches
- Step-ups onto chair
- Squats
- Tricep dips on chair
- Plank
- High knees or running in place
- Lunges
- Push-ups and rotations
- Side plank
According to researchers, when this routine is performed with a high-intensity effort, it fulfills the recommendations of the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) for a vigorous activity combining resistance training and cardio in the same session.
How can you incorporate this workout into your busy Holiday schedule?
Between wrapping gifts and putting Christmas cookies in the oven, you can always find a few spare minutes. It's the perfect time to squeeze in a 7-minute workout! Do the routine several days in a row, then rest for a day. It will help you survive the Holidays and you can get back to your regular health routine in January as if nothing had happened!
Your pharmacist also has lots of tips to help you stay healthy over the Holidays. Simply ask!
Enjoy the workout… and Happy Holidays!

All Aboard's Brightline to hold "Topping Out" ceremony at West Palm station site
All Aboard Florida's Brightline train service will hold a "Topping Out" ceremony on Sept. 30 at the site of the company's passenger station in downtown West Palm Beach — an event that signifies work on the project has reached its top elevation.
The ceremony is another milestone for the station — which is set to open next year when Brightline begins carrying passengers between Miami and West Palm Beach.
A similar ceremony was held at the company's station in downtown Ft. Lauderdale this morning. The company said the milestone marked the "completion of the station structure and a shift of focus toward interior outfitting and finish efforts."
RELATED: 3 Things to Know: Brightline rail upgrades, train expected this fall
"The topping out of our Fort Lauderdale station marks another important milestone in the development of our Brightline train service," Brightline's president Mike Reininger said. "More than 65 percent of the work has been completed on the entire system between Miami and West Palm Beach, and our team is expanding each week as we look forward to launching service in less than a year."
Brightline plans to run 32 trains a day along the Florida East Coast Railway tracks with stops in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach and Orlando. The company plans to launch service between Miami and West Palm Beach in mid-2017. Service will later be expanded be between West Palm Beach and Orlando.

It had ancient Greek writings on its walls, including a text about ancient drug use that references Homer's "The Odyssey."
https://www.livescience.com/43265-ancie ... egypt.html
The house illustrated how people came into contact with culture, displaying, for instance, mythological learning both in painted plaster (see §7.2) and in writing. http://dlib.nyu.edu/awdl/isaw/oasis-city/chapter7.xhtml
In the first epigram, the mention of "god" and "the great god" is intriguing but ambiguous. Did the verses allude to a mythological god or to the Christian God? Both are possible. The language of these epigrams is heavily poetic and epic, but many expressions from Homer and Apollonius Rhodius later passed into Christian poetry and prose. Hermes Trismegistos, or Thoth, was not only the god of rhetoric but also the main deity of Trimithis, and the epithet megas (great) is attested for him, so that the identification appears at first possible. And yet Christian epigrammatists often applied the same epithet to the Christian God. In the first epigram, moreover, Hermes is mentioned among the deities who escort the students up the hill, so he cannot be identified with the "god" that the teacher invokes at the beginning, and it seems very likely that the "god" is the Christian God. The coexistence of mythological gods and God poses no difficulty, because in the fourth century Christians claimed for themselves the right to use a classicizing language and literature; this contest for the classical heritage lies behind the emperor Julian's edict against Christian teachers and the counterreaction of Gregory of Nazianzus, among others.

Public Opinion and the War
By PAUL GARRETT, Chairman, Public Relations Committee, Automotive Council for War Production
Delivered at the Annual Meeting, Automotive Council for War Production, Detroit, Mich., July 10, 1942
Vital Speeches of the Day, Vol. VIII, pp. 692-693.
THE Automotive Council for War Production came into being shortly after Pearl Harbor as a new instrument to speed mass production of war materials. Creation of the Council reflected a momentous shift to war work by our industry. We went out of the automobile business in which we had been highly competitive. We undertook more or less jointly the largest public assignment ever given any industry.
This industry had been conscious of its responsibilities from the beginning of the defense program, long before the Axis attack. It had many Army and Navy projects already in mass production. True, the industry was still making automobiles—though under a progressive curtailment program—yet the volume of war work under way was fully up to the pre-Pearl Harbor psychology of national defense. It had long been ready to undertake more projects desired by the Army and Navy but which they could not clear. They did not have the appropriations. For Congress, in turn, was not yet sure of its own backing by a still skeptical public.
But the early December cloudburst of Nipponese over Hawaii threw people here into a war fever. Indifference turned to anger. Overnight, people wanted war production on the mass scale to which the automobile industry had accustomed their thinking. Even at that time the industry had $4,800,000,000 of war orders under way. Then fresh Army and Navy orders began pouring in that very night to sweep the total up by January to $10,000,000,000. Our "know how" of mass production techniques made it inevitable that the automobile industry would be given tremendous responsibilities. However, to complicate matters still more, the public collaterally began assigning us responsibility even faster than could the armed services.
A Case of Changed Psychology
Suddenly everyone became impatient. Not in recent memory has this industry been so criticized as then for its allegedslow rate of conversion to war. Actually it was not a case of slow conversion. It was a case of changed psychology. That created an acute public relations problem. Unfortunately, the public generally did not understand how much time was required to get into mass production on anything new, particularly on intricate war products with which the industry was not familiar.
Your Committee feels, however, that the industry, through its Council and through its individual members, in 1942 so far has handled itself very well from a public relations standpoint. A Gallup poll on this industry that was in the doghouse only last January would show an amazing reversal in public opinion, for:
First: Our industry has been able to accelerate war production day by day until it is right now delivering, for use by the armed forces, $12,000,000 worth of military equip-ment a day. That is a new feat in military history. It is the nation's evidence of what it can expect through mass war production to back up our armed forces for their ultimate victory.
Second: Our industry, through careful planning and an exchange of tools, procedures, and ideas, managed its shift to an all-out war effort with a maximum "change-over" drop in employment of only 12 1/2, per cent below December.
Third: Our industry, long experienced in subcontracting, has done an outstanding job in utilizing to productive advantage the skills, facilities, and production capacities of its suppliers, parts makers, and all its large group of auxiliary concerns included in the current term "subcontractors." Outstanding too has been the contribution of these automotive suppliers through their efficient procedures, long established, which the industry has continued to utilize in tackling this new and highly technical job.
Fourth: Our industry went through its critical period of change-over as a unit of private enterprise without need of Government control, through voluntary cooperation of alarge group of manufacturers and suppliers—bent not on making an immediate showing so much as on laying the ground-work for a continuing long-range war production effort.
Fifth: Our industry, in accomplishing all of these things, has been able in this short time to achieve a complete subordination of all normal industrial interests to the needs of a nation at war.
We can be proud of these accomplishments. We can be proud that we have won our way to a strong public position. But let us take only such satisfaction in that position as will encourage us to go on. We can be sure that the public will continue to expect more and more of us. So we must keep our sights high both as regards production itself and as regards a public understanding of production.
Public Opinion Is Never Static
Good public relations for this industry starts with what people think. Back of that it starts with what we ourselves do. Opinion, deeply rooted in people's minds, is just as much of a fact so far as public relations is concerned, and just as important a fact to be dealt with, as a scientific finding from a research laboratory. The good relations our industry now enjoys came chiefly from its success in doing its job on war production but partly from the better understanding people were given of how this feat was accomplished.
But public opinion is never static. Certainly, we can look forward to rapid and dramatic changes in the aspects of war, changes in the technical requirements of war equipment on the firing line, and hence changes in the responsibility and demands that will be placed upon industry. So we must ever expect future problems to arise that may become our responsibility in the public mind unless we exercise imagination now. What can we do to anticipate and help meet these potential problems?
First: We can continue to keep in mind in our engineering efforts that industry responsibility in this war will not be satisfied by success in meeting production schedules alone. We have a responsibility, under guidance of the Army and Navy technicians, to contribute our best thought as well as to help maintain the technical superiority of military products.
Military tactics have shifted several times already in World War II, involving important changes in the characteristics of weapons required to back up our armed forces at the front. Industry is not responsible for the planning of Army and Navy projects. But, from a broad standpoint, is it not industry's duty to exercise all the ingenuity and imagination it can in still further making available the experience of industry to assist technicians of the Army, Navy and Air commands in their responsibility of meeting these changing military requirements? May not this added contribution come to equal in importance the duty of meeting production schedules?
Second: We can do more planning in support of a new phase of war that depends not on production but on the ability of supply staffs to follow production into the fighting areas with parts and men trained to service machines on the field of battle. Experience on the fighting fronts is emphasizing the fact that it is not the amount of equipment an army possesses but the amount kept in fighting trim that helps win battles.
Third: We will need to give the public a clearer understanding of the financial position of the industry in war. This means a better understanding of the industry's profit policy on war production, of the system of renegotiation of contracts through which constantly improved productionmethods are reflected in lowered costs to the Government, and of the industry's contribution to the war by way of its own investment in plants, equipment, and inventory.
Must Anticipate Future Criticism
Your Committee feels that if we would hold our hard-won public position we should continually take a fresh view of the problems ahead. If we wait for new criticism it will be too late. We must anticipate future criticism and in that anticipation apply sound public relations principles. This means that, supplementing our all out war effort, so far as military censorship permits:
(a) We should continue to tell the production story.
(b) We should continue to identify technical management and management planning with this production.
(c) We should not cease to emphasize quality and precision manufacture put into the implements our armed forces are using.
(d) We should call attention to the help being given to military technicians in their task of developing superior designs in military products and maintaining technological superiority in the field.
(e) We should point out our work with the army in helping organize repair facilities and parts depots and trained men in the field to keep mechanical equipment in fighting condition.
(f) We should continue to tell the story of our training programs.
(g) We should explain again and again the operation—an old story in the automobile industry—of subcontracting.
(h) We should guard against generating over-optimism on war production since there are such potential bottlenecks to be reckoned with as limitations upon the supply of critical materials and transport facilities.
(i) Above all, we should never in our pride over a production job well done take any credit from the armed forces, for the victory will be their victory and everything we build is to back them up at their fighting fronts.
How Attitude Toward Industry Has Changed
In some respects it is an anomalous position in which we now find ourselves. The formula of industry relied upon to save democracy stems from the very elements recently suspect:
Do you recall the charge that mechanization of industry had gone too far?
Do you recall the charge that mass production as developed by industry in this country was a dehumanizing influence not in the public interest?
Do you recall the charge that industry was spending too much of the stockholders' money on scientific research?
Do you recall the charge that bigness in industry was destroying the democratic way of life so much cherished in this country?
Where, I ask, would the world have been in this war to make individuals free if it had not been for these "suspect" ingredients of American industry?
It is for those who believe in America to speed production in this war with all their might and at the same time to speed understanding—an understanding of what industry in America can mean to the armed forces now and what it can mean later on to the world to which these men will return.
The way to acquire a reputation for constructive thought and action for the peace is to think and act and speak constructively now in the emergency of war.

JOSEPH HOLANDES UBALDE, GMANews.TV
MANILA, Philippines – Instead of blacklisting runaway overseas Filipino workers (OFWs), abusive employers in Saudi Arabia should be barred under the new employment policy there, a migrants' advocacy group said.
In a letter to Philippine officials in Saudi Arabia, Migrante's Middle East chapter said the new policy puts the blame wrongly on foreign workers instead of employers who are subjecting these workers to various forms of maltreatment and labor malpractices.
"It should be erring and abusive employers that need to be blacklisted in hiring our workers, not the other way around," said Migrante regional coordinator John Leonard Monterona.
Based on Migrante Saudi Arabia's records, there were 1,793 cases of OFWs requesting repatriation as of December 31, 2008. Of the total, 566 ran away from their employers, while 1,019 were in various "distress" situations.
"We believe running away from abusive employers is the only way out for our distressed OFWs to save their lives. They should not be punished as they are the victims here," Monterona added.
A GMANews.TV source in Saudi Arabia explained that under the new policy, all entering expatriates will be scanned for fingerprints for the kingdom's database. Employers could no longer ask immigration officials to take a foreign employee's name out of the blacklist. The SR2,000 fine for blacklist removal is also not applicable.
Deportees are required to take a Saudi Arabian Airlines flight out of the country, ""but the deportee will surely be delayed in his return because of the long process and difficulty in booking a (Saudia) flight," said the source, who has assisted many workers in the Middle East in leaving abusive employers.
Welfare Officer Romualdo Exmundo of the Philippine Consulate General in Jeddah said some runaway OFWs have even left the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration shelter at the consulate in Jeddah to join other expatriates who are staying under an overpass in Khandara District, in the hope that immigration police would arrest and deport them.
The other runaway workers are from India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Indonesia.
But the GMANews.TV source said trooping to the Al Khandara bridge can only expedite the deportation of runaway maids, and not males or skilled workers.
Police records would have to be checked first for runaway men and skilled workers before they get deported. They also need their employer's go-signal before they are allowed to leave the country, the source warned. – GMANews.TV

Flying in combat or surveillance missions is a very demanding and dangerous task. In order to help save lives, unmanned aerial vehicles have gained great interest. They can be used for combat missions, surveillance, and locating disaster victims simply by a controller on ground without having to put a life at risk.
Design an Arduino based autopilot Aircraft which will handle stabilization and navigation and provide live video while it's flying, to be utilized for testing unknown territories, surveillance, or for news stations or weather stations live feed, without the need to put someone in danger.
System Overview
The servos are connected to rudder (yaw), elevator (elevation) and throttle (speed), they control the gears that are linked to the arms, when transmitter on ground sends a signal, the receiver picks up the signal and sends it to the corresponding servos which will control the arm's action and push or pull the rod.
Mission Planner
Aircraft will have a programmed mission to complete, such as going to different points located in the map and after a certain time, finish the mission and land. In order to be able to select which points the Aircraft should go to, Google maps will be utilized so that the product is customer-friendly and easy to use. The person providing the directions to the Aircraft will be able to select points, as well as see the Aircraft completing the mission.

As main trigger in this sample scenario I am using test execution plans assigned to a special user "agent1". Once some plans are assigned to it a python script can search for issues, execute and transition execution to pass or failed. This will allow you to distribute execution across multiple servers.
Lets get started with the agent preparation, we will need a python installation and the jira pip package (pip install jira).
The following script will be responsible for search and execution of tests (this can also scheduled in cron or systemd for example:
from jira import JIRA import json import logging import shlex, subprocess import re FORMAT = '%(asctime)-15s %(message)s'logging.basicConfig(format=FORMAT) logger = logging.getLogger() logger.setLevel(logging.INFO) jira = JIRA(basic_auth=('agent1', 'agent1'), server='http://192.168.0.1:8080') allfields=jira.fields() nameMap = {field['name']:field['id'] for field in allfields} my_test_plans = jira.search_issues('assignee=currentUser() and issueType="Test Execution Plan" and status=Open') for issue in my_test_plans: logger.info ( "Test execution plan: " + str(issue) ) transitions = jira.transitions(issue) inprogid = jira.find_transitionid_by_name(issue, 'In Progress') jira.transition_issue(issue, str(inprogid)) subtask_issues = issue.fields.subtasks for subtask in subtask_issues: passid = jira.find_transitionid_by_name(subtask, 'Passed') failid = jira.find_transitionid_by_name(subtask, 'Failed') subtask_issue = jira.issue(subtask.key) steps = getattr(subtask_issue.fields, nameMap['Execution Steps']) count = 0 stop_execution = False for step in steps: count=count + 1 logger.info ( str(count) + ": " + str(step)) jsonsteps = json.loads(step) if str(jsonsteps['step']).startswith("execute"): try: ret=subprocess.check_output( str(jsonsteps['step']).replace("execute",""), stderr=subprocess.STDOUT, shell=True) logger.info ( "Execution finished ok ... checking output: " + ret ) pattern = re.compile(str(jsonsteps['expected'])) if pattern.match(ret): logger.info ( "Output looks ok !" ) else: logger.info ( "Output looks BAD !" ) stop_execution = True jira.transition_issue(subtask_issue, str(failid)) break except: logger.info ( "Exception occured" ) stop_execution = True jira.transition_issue(subtask_issue, str(failid)) break jira.transition_issue(subtask_issue, str(passid)) if stop_execution: breakSo how can something like that be used ? The whole script actually relies on 2 conventions, when you got some automation you start the step with the word "execute" while in the expected results field you place a regular expression that will match the output of the command.
Also most applications on the market will return some error code if they encounter an error, the tests are failed also in this case.
The sample script above has quite limited functionality, error handling etc, there is room for improvement and is not intended for production use in the current format, it is only intended to demonstrate the capabilities.

Pakistani Taliban Behind Times Square Bomb Plot, Officials Say
The investigation into the Times Square bomb plot has revealed that the Pakistani Taliban were behind the failed attack, top Obama administration officials said Sunday.
Despite conflicting claims over the past week from military and law enforcement officials, as well as Taliban leaders, Attorney General Eric Holder and White House counterterrorism adviser John Brennan said that authorities now believe suspect Faisal Shahzad acted at the direction of the Taliban in Pakistan and was probably funded by them.
Brennan told "Fox News Sunday" that Shahzad had "extensive interaction" with the group, which he described as virtually "indistinguishable" from Al Qaeda. He said investigators believe the suspect was trained by the militant network.
"It looks as though he was operating on behalf of the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan," he said. "This is a group that is closely aligned with Al Qaeda. It has a murderous agenda similar to Al Qaeda, they train together, they plan together, they plot together. They're almost indistinguishable."
New York law enforcement officials initially said they did not have evidence to support claims made by the Pakistani Taliban that they were responsible for the attempted attack. The Taliban later reversed their claim.
Gen. David Petraeus also previously described Shahzad as a "lone wolf" merely inspired by Pakistani militants in a statement to The Associated Press.
But Holder said Sunday that investigators have found solid links back to Pakistan. He said on NBC's "Meet the Press" that the Taliban were "intimately involved" in the plot.
"We've now developed evidence which shows that the Pakistani Taliban was behind the attack," he said on ABC's "This Week." "We know that they helped facilitate it. We know that they probably helped finance it, and that he was working at their direction."
Shahzad, a U.S. citizen of Pakistani descent, was arrested Monday in connection with the plot.
Holder said investigators have found no evidence to suggest that the Pakistani government, which he described as cooperative in the investigation, had any prior knowledge of Shahzad's plans.

I know I saw this pass quickly on EqD multiple days ago. MLP: Fighting is Magic, as some would say not exactly a game related to the theme of the show, because as we all know, Friendship is Magic and not fighting (though there have been plenty of times during season 1 I wished someone cracked open a can of whoop flank). But this game is going to be awesome in the old school style. I'm not a big gamer anymore so I'm not sure what fighting games have evolved to in modern gaming, but this style of fighting game is definitely my cup of tea.

Many of us remember growing up in a family where manners were important. In an age, where individuals, such as our new U.S. President, Donald Trump, wishes to Make America Great Again–it seems relevant to ask individuals who make flip remarks, like Glenn Beck: Where are Your Manners? Especially when it comes to exceptional human-beings such as George Soros.
It seems reasonable to think: Why cannot persons make a living talking about informational material–material that does not take shots at another person's reputation: Individuals, again, like George Soros.
Glenn Beck, may wish to consider the question: Where Are Your Manners Mr. Beck? One reporter, rightfully, concluded, that Mr. Beck's campaign against George Soros lacks merit. He depicts Mr. Soros as an evil-doer of some sort. Hitler was very anti-Jewish, as we all know. In controlling the Jewish people, initially, he made outrageous claims about some very prosperous Jewish merchants. It was their activities that would be the undoing of the world population, if those activities were not addressed. What made this offering of slanderous material so pitiful, is that many of the areas where Hitler and the Nazis, suggested, the Jewish people posed the biggest threat, were areas where the Jewish population was very scarce. As everyone knows, Hitler, in and of himself became the threat. However, Hitler's course of action, from the beginning, was to go about and con world leaders. He promised to agree upon the terms of treaties, and then completely disavowed those promises by doing as he pleased.
Mr. Beck, makes it a point that Mr. George Soros wants world domination. Historically, though, Mr. Soros has been a major force in assuring the elimination of Communism along with Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher. He is very pro-Democracy. He has a constitutional bent, second-to-none.
George Soros is very prosperous and is one of the richest persons the world over. He has made his fortune, fair and square, on the stock market and currency exchanges. Just because he possesses natural talent, in way of becoming rich, does not mean that he is aggressive or dominate. In fact, nothing in his history suggests he has ever been aggressive, in an unfavorable way. Did he practice deception with them? Of course he did.
Mr. Soros is on the favorable list, of many persons inspired by his courage and fortitude. George Soros remains and has been one of the most inspiring entrepreneurs, in the nation's history. Hopefully, Mr. Beck will learn to mind his manners–however, not many of us are banking on it.

Donegal did not play up to their own high standard - McGee
Donegal fell short against Roscommon because they did not live up to the high standard that they set for themselves, both individually and as a team.
That was the view of stand-in full-back for the day, Eamon McGee. Eamon deputised for his brother, Neil, who missed the game with a nose injury picked up last weekend in Tralee.
"The boys set a high standard for the panel and for themselves and that standard wasn't met there today by the majority of the team," said a disappointed McGee afterwards.
The Gaoth Dobhair man felt they also paid the price for letting Roscommon away from them in the first half. Roscommon led by five points at half-time having been in front by six at one stage in the opening half.
"We let a gap open up between us in the first half and we were caught a little on the hop and just like in Kerry, our discipline let us down and we gave away too many frees and it is something we are going to have to look at.
"We will have to do more than say we can't afford to do that again. We are going to have to sit down and discuss it and do something about it rather than just talk about it."
McGee also felt that if his brother Neil had been available Roscommon might not have got the same room up front that enjoyed, especially in the first half.
"There was a lot of space inside today and Neil would have relished than challenge if he was playing. The boys that came in have done well; it is only three or four weeks ago we were talking about how strong the squad was.
"When you are missing a three time All-Star (Neil McGee) it is hard to fill that void and we were also missing Frank McGlynn, another All-Star, who is a big player for us too."
As for the game and the way it unfolded the versatile defender felt that it was a rare enough game, particularly in the first half.
"It is a long time since I experienced a team that created so much space against us. We tried to press them up the field but they got in behind us and it is something that we are going to have to look at.
"We were lucky to be still in the game at half-time. They should have been further ahead. But we did not panic; we had experience enough to know that with Michael Murphy, Patrick McBrearty and Odhran MacNiallais up front and capable of scoring a goal that five points was not too big a lead.
"We felt realistically if we got a goal that we would be back in the game and said early in the second half that it was going to take a goal.
"I felt we showed good character to get back to two points without the goal and down to 14. But unfortunately we did not kick on. I think once we lost Odhran (MacNiallais) our chance was gone.
"The way they were playing we needed to push up on them man for man and with Odhran gone we couldn't do that."


text: Reprint Mein Kampf, Urge German Jews By Jason Farago, Newser Staff Posted Aug 10, 2009 3:54 AM CDT 5 comments Comments "Mein Kampf" has been banned in Germany for decades. (©-Marlith-) View 1 more image (Newser) – Hitler's autobiography-manifesto Mein Kampf has been strictly banned in Germany since the end of World War II, but a proposal to reprint it has the endorsement of the country's leading Jewish organization, among other groups, reports the Independent. "A historically critical edition needs to be prepared today to prevent neo-Nazis profiting from it," said the head of the Central Council of Jews. But politicians and many academics oppose the effort. The government of the state of Bavaria, which owns the rights to Mein Kampf, says any published version "may play straight into the hands of the right." Several scholars say that the rambling book "does not provide any important answers to questions about how the Nazi regime was possible." Yet Jewish groups believe a critical edition is indispensable, particularly since the Internet has made its censorship impossible. (Read more Mein Kampf stories.) View 1 more image

The days are still hot, but with cooler mornings and evenings, get ready Atlanta: the fescue lawn turfgrass overseeding season will be here soon. We are almost into the ideal time to begin aerating and overseeding fescue lawns or Metro Atlanta and North Georgia. I will present the things you need to do in a multi-part series.
The ideal overseeding season lasts about 6 weeks, however, No Worries, there are other good, if not ideal timeframes to get this task done.

Armyworm alert! Look out Atanta lawns
August and September each year, caterpillars do damage to lawns throughout Atlanta and North Georgia. Typically, lawns will recover, however occasionally this damage can be devastating, especially to newly planted lawns.
Here are a few key points to remember:
- Damage is mostly aesthetic, but
- Newly planted lawns, however can be severely damaged or decimated
- The biggest culprits are armyworms, especially to Bermuda grass.
- Adult armyworm moths, active at night, lay eggs of 50 to several hundred.
- Initial damage can first look like skeletonizing, but eventually, the entire leaf is consumed.
- Armyworms are most active early and late in the day, spending the hotter hours down near the soil in the shade.
- Check for worms by pouring soapy water on the grass (1/2 oz. dishwashing soap/gallon water) will bring them up quickly.
Control of armyworms and other turf caterpillars:
- There are several pesticides from which to choose depending on your lawn type and location. Brand name Sevin, in liquid form is one type.
- Consult your local Extension Agent for recommendations.
- Read and follow all label directions when using pesticides.
- Pesticide applications should be made as late as practical for best results.
- Applying 20 - 25 gallons of solution per acre will provide good coverage.
- Do not cut grass for 1 3 days after treating

Mulch Does More Than Hide the Dirt
Mulch serves at least four important functions in the landscape.
Now that Spring is coming and the last leaves have fallenor have almost fallenit is time to be sure the mulch in your beds is sufficient and replenished. Mulch is basically a layer of material which covers the soil in your beds. It can be organic or inorganic. Typically I recommend organic because it provides a fuller range of benefits and fewer hassles.
Mulch provides a number of benefits in your landscape: 1) Dress up and beautify your bedded and naturalized areas. 2) Conserve soil moisture and protect roots from drying out. 3) Stabilize soil temperatures, preventing shock to plants from unexpected frosts and hot days. 4) Replenish valuable organic matter to the soil as the mulch breaks down, organic matter provides the crucial carbon necessary for development of new plant cells, and creates rich soil for roots to easily grow in. 5) Reduce weed germination. 6) And, reduce soil erosion.
There are several different organic and inorganic mulches. We recommend organic mulches for the majority of applications. Examples of inorganic mulches are pebbles and ground up tires. The most common organic mulch is pine straw. Pine straw is very effective and economical. Other organic mulches include pine bark, various wood chips, and colorized wood chips.
Wood chips and bark will decompose slower than pine straw, although they will become sun bleached. Colorized wood chips primary advantage is they resist sun bleaching much longer, although they look less than natural :: Proudland Landscape, LLC, copyright © 2005-2007

Pruning Crape Myrtles
Crape myrtle trees are popular landscape plants and specimens here in the Atlanta area. They are ubiqitous, common, and redundant, though beautiful and almost irresistible in the landscape. They are especially useful in the commercial landscape where careful control of plant size and shape is necessary, not only for aesthetic, but also liability reasons. It is not uncommon to see them being pruned as early as December. Our customers see this, and I am frequently asked when the crape myrtles will be pruned.
Pruning crape myrtles does nothing for their blooming. There is a beautiful, gigantic crape near the Fuqua building in the Atlanta Botanical Garden which is absolutely beautiful, and has had minimal pruning. Pruning crapes is done to control size and shape. Crape myrtles bloom on new wood, and handle pruning well.
As far as time frame is concerned, February is the time--post Valentines day. Maintenance companies, and commercial operations need to buffer around this time frame, due to the volume of work required, and the relatively short time between mid-February and Spring here in the Atlanta area. However, December is very early, and January is early. :: Proudland Landscape, LLC, copyright ©2005-2007

Compost is often referred to as "Gardener's Gold" because of its ability to help plants grow. If you've ever been in a forest and peeled away the top layers of leaf litter on the grounds, you will have seen a rich layer of this black, earthy, sweet smelling, moist material called compost, Compost, when mixed in with soil, improves soil structure, adds a wide variety of minerals and nutrients, and improves the soil's ability to retain moisture.
Composting is the earth's way of naturally recycling old plant material and you too can use this process in your
own back yard to manage your yard waste. So, this fall, why not try composting all those fallen leaves and by
next spring you too could be mining "Gardener's Gold" in you very own backyard. For information on how
to compost in Gwinnett Contact "Gwinnett Clean & Beautiful" at 770.822.5187 or visit their website at
(Source: Gwinnett Clean & Beautiful insert, Sep '02)
Autumn is approaching and that means leaves will be falling. Leaves can be washed into local streams where bacteria can cause the leaves to decay and release phosphorous. This bacterial action and release of phosphorus can lead to a decrease in the water oxygen levels necessary to support the survival of fish & aquatic life.
Don't blow or sweep leaves into the street, storm drains or drainage ditches. Instead, consider composting
the old leaves. You'll save our streams and your garden will benefit from all the rich compost you are able
to produce. For more info call 678.376.6929 or

By S. C. Turnbo
Among accounts of how wolves were taken out of caves in the pioneer days is the following which was furnished me by James A. Rose, a prominent preacher of Eros, Marion County, Ark. Mr. Rose is a son of Martin and Nancy (Long) Rose and was born in McMin County, Tennessee, June 16, 1850, and came with his parents from Tennessee to Western Grove in Newton County, Ark., when he was a little lad of a boy. His father enlisted in the confederate army and died at Saint James, Phelps County, Mo., on the Frisco Railroad between Rolla and St. Louis and is buried there. Mr. Rose in referring to an old burial ground situated between Western Grove and Duggers Mill says that a son of Dr. William Hays was the first Interment there, which occurred in the early fifties. "Other old time people who rest here," said Mr. Rose, "is Doctor Hays himself who lived to be nearly 100 years old; also Pleasant Reeves, Anderson Wright and Mary Wright, his wife, and my grandmother Mrs. Mary Rose., wife of my grandfather Allin Rose. Well," continued Mr. Rose, "you have asked me about the wild beasts that Inhabited Newton County when we arrived there. I was too young to remember much about them until I grew older. I never followed hunting to amount to anything except once when I was 11 years old, or in 1861, when I with others went on a lively wolf hunt which I have never forgotten. One day during the time mentioned Pleas Reeves and myself went over to Jarriet Trammels where we found that wolves had destroyed several of Mr. Trammels sheep and he had put strychnine in the carcasses of the sheep and some of the wolves at least had returned and devoured part of the poisoned mutton and Trammel concluded to hunt for their den and requested me and Reeves to go with him which we did. We took the dogs and guns along with us and while we were following the trail of the wolves toward the Buffalo River we discovered two grown wolves lying dead which no doubt had feasted on the poisoned sheep. Continuing on we traced the other wolves to a stream that runs into Buffalo from the north side and while we were near a rock bridge or a natural formation which extends across the creek we found a wolf den that was in a little opening in the ground. The wolf whelps were as large as grown coons and as we approached near the den we saw the young wolves sitting around the mouth of the cave. One of the men shot one of the wolves and killed it at the mouth of the den and the remaining ones hustled back into their lair. The cave was too small for the men to crawl into it and as I was a little fellow they persuaded me to go in and I did and soon located the bed and made an investigation. The passageway was too small for me to turn around and go back and I had to crawl backward to get to the outside. The men now cut long hickory withes and bound the top end of one to each one of my ankles and I crawled back into the hole again and with the aid of a gunstick I twisted one end of it among the hair of one wolf and got a hold on its hide and pulled it to me like twisting a rabbit out of a hollow log. Catching the young beast by a hind leg I gave the signal to the men and they hauled me out backward by the withes. This was repeated until 7 young wolves were taken out of the cave. Five of them were slain as soon as they were taken out. The young beasts bit and scratched my hands and arms so severely that they were quite sore for several days. Some of the wounds bled freely and the marks on my hands and arms made by the wolves teeth and toe nails remained for months afterward. I carried two of the pups home with me alive and made pets of them, but soon after they had grown to be of good size they commenced killing my mothers chickens and ducks and one day she told me in a peremptory way that I must dispose of them two wolves and I killed them without waiting for a second warning from my mother."

Colonel Brandon
All of our roosters have been named after Jane Austen characters. First there was Mr. Darcy but he became to proud and was prejudice against me. Willoughby was a gorgeous guy but too wild to live a quiet life on the farm. This time, I picked from the thirteen roosters that we had in our
all pullet straight run order. I carefully chose a nice looking guy but not the most impressive. I looked for a quiet demeanor that might develop into a mild mannered and dignified man. He's since grown up and caring for his ladies, calling them when he finds good things to eat, reprimanding them when they stay out too late, even fighting off a hawk who dared to enter the chicken run. As long as I don't make eye contact, he is not bothered when I trespass on his land but he does jump up on the fence and crow. For now, he will remain at Pemberley.
So far, so good.
So, Colonel Brandon it is!
|Yearling Dixie Delaware Chickens & Rooster
Mark 14:72
Immediately the rooster crowed the second time. Then Peter remembered the word Jesus had spoken to him: "Before the rooster crows twice you will disown me three times." And he broke down and wept.

Home improvement transforms your entire space into something wonderful. It's good for the soul, good for the family, and good for your home's resale value. The more that you invest into your home, the more likely it will be that you have others that would be willing to buy your property if you ever wanted to move away to another location.
But there's something that doesn't get talked about when it comes to home improvement. Indeed, this unsaid chapter of home improvement is so important that it can really cover up all of your hard earned results.
That hidden chapter is simple: junk removal! If you aren't thinking about how to throw away all of the old tiles, wood, and other debris that gets scattered all over your home when you're finished with a home renovation project, you're going to have a hard time getting your house to look great. You want to have a solid plan for junk removal because you may end up going over your weight limit for trash. This can cost you a lot more money than checking out a junk removal service. The more that you can explore these options, the better off you will actually and honestly be. The best place to look is in your general location.
If you're in the greater Toronto area, this is one of the best resources available for junk removal: http://www.1800gotjunk.com/ca_en/locations/junk-removal-toronto/
This is the finishing touch to any good home improvement project. You can just point out everything that needs to be hauled away, and they will give you an upfront price. This means that there are no secret, hidden fees waiting for you. You also get to save yourself all of the back pain if you were trying to strain yourself. That's something that you just want to avoid if you can help it.
Why not look into junk removal rather than trying to go through the motions of hunting down friends that can help? Let's face it — most friends really don't want to mess with your junk, especially when it's mixed with heavy renovation debris. It's a smarter move to get people who are professionals at this. They can help you get your house looking showcase ready in virtually no time at all!

BiographyCosplayer: Johnny - "Junkers Cosplay" Age: 26 Gender: Male Started cosplaying since: 2011 Fave fictional character: Battle Angel Alita Hometown: USA, California
A Little About MeMy name is Johnny and I'm not a complicated guy. I love making props almost as much as I love corgis. That's all there is to it!
Cosplay 1
Character: Jecht Series: Final Fantasy Dissidia
Description: I was told to make a Jecht cosplay since I was the only one of our friends that could grow facial hair. I saw the pictures and the costume looked easy enough. I cut up some plastic, cut up a giant piece of plywood and thus the Blitz King made his debut at San Diego Comic Con 2011. Ironically enough, the friends that I was supposed to cosplay with didn't finish their costumes for about 6 months afterwards. Oh well, them's the breaks right? Make your very own Jecht in just a few easy steps here on my blog Photo credits Ken Eden
Cosplay 2
Character: Tigrex x Diablos Armor Series: Monster Hunter Frontier
Description: This is one of my earlier armors and it was an interesting learning experience. This was the first time I got to use Aves' Apoxie Sculpt at length, which I used for the horns, and it has been an indispensable tool in my cosplay bag of tricks ever since. Since this picture was taken I made a matching sword to go with it. Photo credits: Champ Okageo
Cosplay 3
Character: Raven - Reckless Fist (Class) Series: Elsword Online
Description: I was commissioned to make this for the Elsword Online booth for Anime Expo 2012. I had a really awesome time interacting with all of the fans in this costume and I was glad that they enjoyed my portrayal of their character. I used a lot of my bread & butter skills to make this, but the real learning step in this project was the Nasod Arm which is the left arm and was a rubber urethane cast piece. Very fun learning experience. Photo credits Martin Wong

The routine is similar. You meet a new person, you get hopeful and excited, things go well for a while, but then they tank. And the cycle goes on. Dating is a complicated game, with so many rules. And if you're constantly wondering why you haven't won at this game yet, then chances are, these mistakes have been holding you back.
Everything is going great on text, but you rarely make an effort to meet him in real life.

You can increase low semen volume and boost the amount of sperm that comes out during ejaculation no matter what your age.
Many men get told that a low amount of sperm is not really a problem for you unless you're trying to conceive.
While sperm and semen levels do decrease with age, that doesn't mean you have to accept low semen volume for the rest of your life.
Why men and women don't like weak ejaculation
Men with some male pride who enjoy sex and pleasuring women tend to be those who are want to increase their semen volume, having seen it decrease over the years.
This is perfectly normal. Producing high amounts of semen when ejaculating is considered manly and virile and there are women that feel valued when a man produces more sperm for her.
The good news is that the amount of semen that you ejaculate can be increased using natural techniques.
The top 5 techniques to boost low semen volume are listed below.
1. Improve Diet
You may not want to hear that you shouldn't be eating fast food such as burgers, fries and hot dogs but you'll need to stop eating all of these and improve your diet if you want to have healthy sperm.
Certain foods are excellent for improving male sexual health and others are bad. Eating libido foods alone isn't enough for maintaining good sexual health; you'll need to stick to a diet higher in proteins, cruciferous vegetables and low in carbs.
2. Sperm Supplements
What are sperm supplements? In simple terms, these natural capsules should work to increase your semen volume and improve the quality of your sperm.
If you'd like to increase your volume when you ejaculate, you need to increase your intake of certain vitamins and minerals.
Ideally, a combination of the right substances that combine to produce high volumes of healthy, fertile sperm packaged into one single supplement would be the ideal way to increase your volume.
I tracked down the most effective supplements and documented the results in a guide to using supplements for improving libido and sperm count.
I encourage you to download the free guide today to start using it.
b>Click here to grab your free guide on how to boost libido and sperm today.
3. Exercise
How can exercise boost low semen volume?
Simple. The right kind of exercise is intense circuit-training. This on its own is enough to boost male testosterone levels. As testosterone is the main male sexual hormone, which decreases every year after the age of around 30, boosting testosterone improves your sperm count and volume.
Getting in good shape and regular exercise is important for your sperm quality and quantity.
4. Staying Hydrated
One of the worst ways to decrease sperm volume is to become dehydrated too regularly.
Drinking plenty of water and fruit juices helps the sperm to become more fluid, to shoot out further and faster and can increase the volume if all else is well.
Increase your water intake if low semen volume is a problem.
5. Delay Ejaculation
Controlling and delaying ejaculation is very important for semen.
If you pay attention what happens during sex or masturbation, you'll probably have seen that you ejaculate more liquid if you delay ejaculation for longer.
Delaying ejaculation is beneficial when it comes to maintaining male libido and improving semen. Orgasm edging is a technique used to great effect to boost semen volume and improve erection quality at the same time.
I started to understand the process behind producing much more semen and improving orgasm quality and have since created a guide to help you to do the same. I've called this 10 point plan The Male Libido Booster Program.
Click here to get access to the Male Libido Booster Program website.
The advantage for you is that you can really learn how to increase low semen volume and boost libido simultaneously.
6. Reduce Alcohol And Tobacco
Semen can be negatively impacted by regular alcohol drinking, especially when that alcohol is beer.
Alcohol can lower testosterone levels and accelerate the rate at which male libido declines.
Beer is also a culprit here, because it's proven to encourage estrogen production in the body, which can lead to men having soft bodies, manboobs and weak libido as well as poor sperm quality.
To improve semen, reduce your alcohol intake.
When you do drink, avoid drinking beer.
Smoking is equally harmful to sexual health. Give up smoking and feel the benefits. This means marijuana too.
