Think you got an email from a business you know? Scammers sometimes use emails that look legit to trick you into sending money to them.
You've probably heard about the ransomware attack affecting organizations' computer systems around the world. It seems to affect server software on organizations' networked computers. But ransomware can attack anybody's computer, so now is a good time to update your own operating system and other software. And then keep them up-to-date.
There's a new scam out there, preying on veterans who are making decisions about their medical care. The Veterans Choice Program (VCP) is an initiative of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The program allows certain eligible vets to use approved health care providers who are outside of the VA system. Veterans or families can call the VCP's toll-free number to verify their eligibility for the program. Here's the problem: Scammers have set up a phony telephone line that very closely resembles the VCP's real telephone number.
Earlier today, we announced a bunch of cases against tech support scammers: the people who act like there's a problem with your computer and then try to convince you to fork over money to fix – ahem – "fix" it. Except there never was a problem, and they weren't really from tech support.
Scammers have been taking advantage of people who care about computer security. They ran operations in the US and overseas that used pop-up messages and phone calls to convince people their computers needed fixing. The FTC announced four new cases against these operations today, and — along with its state, federal and international partners — launched a national and international effort to stop these scams and get money back to the victims.
Growing up, my mother gave me her own version of "scam alerts." She let me know when an offer sounded fishy and told me stories of fraudsters conning people out of their hard-earned money. Maybe your mom did too. This Mother's Day, why not return the favor by letting mom know about the FTC's Scam Alerts?
In the past, we've told you about a group of Jamaican scammers who called people in the US with phony prize, sweepstakes and lottery offers. Just last week, the US Department of Justice (DOJ) announced that eight Jamaicans were extradited to the US and now are in custody in North Dakota. These eight people were charged with using a lottery scam to trick at least 90 people out of more than $5.7 million dollars.
Claims processing is underway for eligible VW owners and lessees as part of the VW 2.0 liter vehicle emissions settlements. If the court approves the proposed 3.0 liter settlement, claims processing for the 3.0 liter vehicle emissions settlements may begin soon. Through these settlements, consumers will have billions of dollars returned to them.
When scammers and hackers attack small businesses, it hurts not only the businesses' reputations and bottom line, but also the integrity of the marketplace. Today, FTC Acting Chairman Maureen Ohlhausen announced a new FTC website, FTC.gov/SmallBusiness, to help business owners avoid scams, protect their computers and networks, and keep their customers' and employees' data safe.

GIGABYTE Z77X-UD4H LGA1155 Motherboard Review
With the Ivy Bridge launch almost eight months behind us, many of the first generation of Z77 LGA1155 specific motherboards have now come and gone. What we are left with is the second wave which is always a little more polished and bit more feature-rich. With this is mind, we are excited to get our hands on the GIGABYTE Z77X-UD4H.
This new model has just about everything that you could want from a mainstream Z77 LGA1155 motherboard with a retail price of around $165. It features a digital 3D Power 8+2+1 phase power design, six USB 3.0 ports, an internal USB 3.0 header, four SATA 3Gb/s ports, four SATA 6Gb/s ports, two eSATA 6Gb/s ports, three PCI-E x16 slots (x16/x8/x4), 2-way SLI and 2-way CrossFireX, LucidLogix Virtu MVP virtualization support, a single gigabit LAN port, 8-channel HD audio codec, a dual-mode UEFI BIOS with two physical BIOS chips, and a revamped software package. That's all pretty standard stuff though.
The neat additions are the distinctive red onboard power button, voltage measurement points, POST code display, onboard BIOS switcher, ON/OFF Charge USB feature, Trusted Platform Module (TPM) header, and full complement of VGA, DVI, HDMI, and DisplayPort outputs.
To keep the price reasonable, GIGABYTE have had to trim the fat in one area, and that's in the more niche connectivity features like Bluetooth, mSATA, Thunderbolt, and WiFi, which we haven't exactly seen a overabundance of enthusiasm for amongst the mainstream community. Having said that, with a Z77 LGA1155 motherboard roster that is an impressive, if not overzealous, twenty-one models deep, GIGABYTE definitely have those features available on other products.
For now though, the Z77X-UD4H is the center of our focus, so let's take a close look.

Use LogMeIn Express to remote control your computers or provide remote Help to users
By Koder at Fri, 02/05/2010 - 01:11
Users often have the need to log on to their machines remotely when they are not physically present in front of their computers, with machines being online all the time with high speed internet, the lure to connect home from a remote location is even better. In this step by step tutorial we will demonstrate a free remote control utility called LogMeIn Express, using which you can log on to any remote machine by just using a web browser. There are a lot of PC remote control software such as VNC, Symantec PC Anywhere etc but most are either commercial and not free, or they need to install a client on users machine and need tweaking around with firewalls and routers. LogMeIn Express uses LogMeIN's web servers for all of its connection traffic, so there is no firewall or router configuration needed at the users end. Its a great product to provide remote help or technical support to anyone, very easily and without any technical know how
Here are step by step instructions on how to set yourself up with LogMeIn Express free:
Go to LogMeIn Express'w website at https://secure.logmein.com/US/products/express/Default.aspx and click on the Share Button from the machine you will be asking for help on or the computer you want to remotely view
Click run on the security warning that you get
You will get a small box popup on the top of your browser with a session code which other users can use to view your screen, make a note of this code. This machine is now ready to be viewed remotely from another computer
Now go to the Viewer's machine (this is the machine from where you want to view the remote machine where you just initiated a LogMeIn session) and enter your 12 digit code you obtained in previous step and click on View

Ever notice the feeling you get when you score a goal? It never gets old.
Every rec hockey player has experienced it at one time or another. As you wind up to shoot, you've got a pretty good sense that the puck is going to find its way to the back of the net.
The feeling that overcomes those who score is almost like no other. You're overcome with pure joy as you realize you just scored a goal! Nothing beats that rec hockey buzz.
Whenever I score a goal I find I can't get to sleep that night, and I certainly can't stop thinking about the play for days—rewinding it over and over in my head—my own personal highlight reel. I wonder: What did I do differently? Was that shot that much harder or more accurate than the others? Was I just in the right place at the right time? Was it just luck?
I'll never forget my first career goal. It took me all the way until my second year of squirts (I was 11 years old; a late bloomer). My dad, my coach, my teammates, everyone was harping on the same piece of advice: "Go to the net!" No one said it better than NHLer Brooks Laich: "If you want money, go to the bank. If you want bread, go to the bakery. If you want goals, go to the net."
I was sick and tired of playing forward, watching my teammates collect their first goals—the smiles, the proud parents, photos with the game puck. It was my turn, I said to myself. I remember it in vivid detail; it seemed to be in the same slow motion as all of my goals ever since (maybe I'm just slow).
I got to the net with my stick down and a hunger I had never before possessed. A shot from the point hit a defenseman in front and the puck ended up on my stick in the slot; the goalie, still peering past the mass of bodies in front, searching for the biscuit. With a weird sort of poise for a goofy 11-year-old kid, I just kind of touch-passed the puck into the bottom corner of the net. I think it was moving so slowly it didn't even hit the net itself, just sliding a few inches past the goal line. I looked to the referee in disbelief for verification. Any number of things could have gone wrong: delayed penalty; man in the crease; or the net could have been off by an inch—who knows… But not this time. The ref affirmatively gave that classic open-palmed point parallel with the goal line: Goal. Goal! GOAL!
I raised my arms in ecstasy and sprinted over to the bench to go down the line, slapping everyone's gloved hand just like the pros do. I'll never forget the backup goalie's face (a good friend of mine), almost equally ecstatic, his bright face and craned, outstretched catching glove, shaking so I wouldn't miss it.
My coach asked the ref for the puck. He knew it was my first; everyone did. I taped it up around the edge in white cloth hockey tape, so the game specs would stand out in black permanent marker: "FIRST GOAL! 10/12/03. River Rats vs. Gremlins. 4-1 win." A few days later, my mom, a graphic designer, presented me with a gift-wrapped framed glass-case memento she made; replacing the cloth tape with a circular sticker on the front of the puck listing all of the info I had so carefully recorded. It was so cool. I still have it somewhere!
Now that I'm all grown up and have to tie my own skates, the thrill never gets old. Whether it's scoring a goal, getting an assist, or drawing a penalty and taking one for the team, the feeling is indescribable. The joys of recreational hockey.
Just this week, in fact, I scored a goal in each of the two teams I play for. As silly as it may seem, if I have a good game I'm on a high the next day; everything just feels so right. (Conversely, if I've had a bad game, I end up feeling miserable the next day.)
What keeps me coming back for more year after year is after playing my heart out, the feeling I get from hearing the compliments of my teammates.
We get older, we get slower, and the hockey we play gets more and more recreational in nature. But one thing is for certain: the rec hockey buzz you get from scoring a goal never fades.
It just gets better and better.

First things first. If you pop over to my website- I am having a SALE on ready-to-ship items. I have lots of one-offs and some general stock available right now.
ALL 20% OFF!! Use the coupon code: ITS2014
(sale ends February 1st.)
I don't often have sales, so take advantage of it if you can.
This sale does not apply to made-to-order items or vegandish or my etsy shop. Only the available items on my website. Thank you!
I have a variety of mishima pieces, like these lovelies:
I am working through the mishima process and looking for that elusive thing that I am looking for. That "bam" that I imagine most potters are looking for. I feel like it is hiding in this process, and yet I haven't quite found it. That's not to say that I don't like these pieces, because I do. Its just to say that these are likely still going to evolve a bit.
I have been working in my new studio for about 2 months. And done my first craft fair here. (thanks to any of you that came out to Crafty Wonderland!) Now I'm in that almost inevitable winter slow-down. And the change of weather from what we are used to isn't helping.
Another part of it is that I am in the process of switching clays. I moved here with a supply of my favorite clay, but that is running out. So I've been playing around with what is available to me here. I think I have found it- but I still have more testing to do. And, quite naturally, because the new clay is different it is leading me to think about my pottery differently. I've been trying some new things and keep putting in "learner" pieces into the kiln.
I often feel like my process is mostly intuition. I feel the clay and know when it is "right." The right dryness, the right thickness, the right form. So much of process is done in this focused/unfocused state. So these test pieces, while odd or interesting to the outside viewer, reveal a plethora of information to me. Leading to more questions. Hardly ever to answers.
Here is a peek at some of the "learner" pieces I've pulled out of the kiln lately:
I will admit that I am in love with that red. And I'm not a red person. But I do think I will be adding that to my color palette!
Along with thinking about glazes and colors, I'm also pondering new forms. But mostly I'm thinking about plates. I made a fair amount of dinnerware last year and really grew to love making plates. So I've been making plates, too. The black and red (!) set is for my brother. It is a long overdue wedding gift (they just celebrated their 3-year anniversary.) The ruffles are just something lovely that has been whispering in my ear to get made. And the bottom plate is some more mishima exploration.
Thanks so much for reading! I hope that everyone is enjoying their new year and the winter season.

believe it or not if there is a will, there is a way. most of the issue
not supplying spice model is related to the ignorance of the tech
people (they simply don't know how to run spice) and not because ip or
accuracy as they told u. if there is technically capable people on the
other side of the table, you can get spice model most of the time. i am
always under the impression spice is a standard circuit and transistor
language and the only thing that's lagging is an industrial standard of
encrypting it. why can't we have spice encryption committee instead of
ibis committee ?
i have to say for the last time i am not against ibis. it's a perfect
for designing mickey mouse buses like pci or jtags etc. its just not
enough for highspeed design.

One of the best drama series EVER on television.
It happens to be classified as a Western but it is NOT a shootemup. The hero is a Troubleshooter that sells his skills to people with money(he likes to live well)to solve people's problems. He is an ex army officer that is friends with many of the Indian tribes and is intelligent, sociable, skilled in military tactics and good with the gun. But he tries to solve these problems without gunfire if possable and only uses it as a last resort. A quote from the song played at the beginning of the show describes it pretty well:"Have Gun Will Travel is the card of a man, A knight without armor in a savage land."
They are terrific dramas starring Richard Boone, with MANY famous stars . They were terrifically acted and hold up Exeptionally Well since they were done in the 1950's.
If you want TV entertainment at it's BEST and most enjoyable, then try this !!

A knight without armor in a savage land
Steven Hellerstedt | 03/13/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)
"Richard Boone stars as Paladin in this six-disk dvd set of the first season of HAVE GUN, WILL TRAVEL (1957-1958).
CBS broadcast an incredible thirty-nine episodes that first season, each episode lasting 23 to 25 minutes. Most episodes begin with the spiffily dressed Paladin (we're never given a last name) scouring the thick stacks newspapers brought to him by the ever helpful Hey Boy (Kam Tong), bellboy at Paladin's residence, the Carlton Hotel in San Francisco. Eventually Paladin reads of a missing child in Colorado, or a rash of robberies occurring in Montana. Paladin slips his business card - a chess knight with the legend Have Gun, Will Travel, Wire Paladin, San Francisco - into an envelope and mails it to the injured party.
Slowly enough as we wend our way through the first year we learn something of Paladin. He has a passion for justice and a taste for the good things. His going rate is $1000, although he will take on a pro bono job if the cause is just. In town he dresses to the nines and in sundry other ways consumes conspicuously. When traveling with a gun he dresses in black. Somewhere along the line he picked up a military education, quotes Shakespeare and Pliny, savors a first-edition of Dryden. His taste in and knowledge of fine wines is commented upon in a couple of episodes....
I don't know if any of this matters, but going through fifteen hours of HGWT over a week or so it's kind of fun to have an aha moment or two. Paladin is an enigma, and Boone, a little more credible as the gunslinger than the city dandy, was an inspired choice to play him. Boone has a commanding presence and, believe me when I tell you buckaroos, was pretty darn quick on the draw.
Twenty-three minutes is a pretty tight box to fit a action story in, which might explain why we don't waste a whole lot of time on Paladin's backstory. Of course, the storytelling is made a lot easier when you consider the talent involved. The talent rundown has to start with Boone, who was nominated Best Leading Actor as Paladin in 1959 and 1960. The great majority of the first season episodes were directed by action veteran Andrew McLaglen (son of actor Victor McLaglen), although a couple were helmed by Oscar winning director Lewis Milestone. Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry wrote a few scripts for the first season as well. Sam Peckingpah even co-wrote one episode (The Singer).
The talent in front of the camera was as formidable as that behind. Major established stars like Victor McLaglen and John Carradine appeared in episodes - weak ones, in my opinion, especially the McLaglen episode (directed by son Andrew) in which the old actor played a construction foreman threatening to cut a town off from its source of water. McLaglen simply wasn't getting around very briskly and it's a little painful to watch. Another major movie star fares much better. Charles Bronson wasn't established yet, but he plays a robber who more or less forces Paladin into a gunfighting showdown in an episode that paints fatal violence as both regrettable and, sometimes, unavoidable. Strother Martin (Cool Hand Luke) appears in two episodes, once as an unscrupulous frontier lawyer and earlier in a more affecting role as a high wire walker who'd lost his nerve somewhere along the way. Warren Oates plays one of the bad offspring in a truncated take on King Lear.
That's just the beginning. Future television stars appear in almost every episode. Pernell Roberts and Dan Blocker (Bonanza) appear as scruffy tough guys in relatively small roles in separate episodes. Jack Lord (Hawaii 5-0) is a cowardly kidnapper. June Lockhart (Lassie, Lost In Space) appears twice as a frontier doctor. Angie Dickinson (Police Woman) plays a young woman whose brother was murdered and threatens to incite a lynch mob. Mike Connors (Mannix) plays a cattle rustling bad guy in one of the early episodes.
Okay, I'm enthusing here. Still haven't got to the best stuff. What gave me the biggest kick was watching the people I'd never heard of. Peter Whitney, who the intro blurb that precedes each episode tells us made a film career out of playing slow-witted big guys and menacing big guys, plays a mentally challenged ranch hand who's goaded into placing a burr under boss's Stuart Whitman's saddle, with dire consequences, in "The Last Laugh." The diminutive B-western star Bob Steele plays a crooked mine boss in "The High Graders" - the Wire Paladin blurb tells us Steele had developed a quick draw during his B-career, which McLaglen pays homage to in a draw down between his character and Paladin. My favorite discovery, though, has to be Marian Seldes, a tremendous actress who is featured in two episodes. First as a mail order bride who Paladin escorts to her new home in "The Bride" and later as a small town teacher who the local bullies try to intimidate in "The Teacher."
Very strongly recommended, especially for fans of traditional westerns.
Classic western with Boone firmly in control
Deborah MacGillivray | US & UK | 07/17/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)
"Richard Boone was one of the most natural actors ever to grace the screen. Good guys, bad guys, he did them all with such a grace and ease that he made it seem so effortless. Paladin was a product of the post-Civil War. A West Point Graduate, he was an educated man, a man who appreciated literature, opera, culture. So it was not surprising he settled in San Franscisco after the war. Though a man of refinement, he made his living by hiring his gun out to those in need. He passed his little cards around - "Have Gun, Will Travel. Wire Paladin, San Fransisco" and waited for clients to find him. While a cultured man, he was just as comfortable in the deadly knight errant persona, the man in black. Boone excelled at making you believe both sides could exist within one man. While he was a hired gun, he often spent more time talking to people making them listen to reason.A loved all these Westerns. Have enjoyed the reruns on TVLand, Starz Westerns, and the Hallmark Channel. But so many of the old Westerns don't hold up well. I was surprised how well Rawhide and Have Gun, Will Travel hold their quality. So these are a super addition to any video maven's collection. Sadly, I don't think Boone ever got the true recognition his talent deserved, but those of us who appreciated him can now watch his talent shine."

Published by Egon Von Greyerz | Apr 26, 2016 | Articles
The global economy turned down in earnest already in 2006 but with a massive worldwide printing and lending programme, the world has had a temporary stay of execution. But the effect of this fabricated money has now come to an end. And what else would you expect. To print money that has no value or to lend money that doesn't exist can never create wealth or save anybody. The downturn will soon start to accelerate and eventually lead to a total failure of the financial system and sovereign defaults. But no one must believe that there will be a sudden implosion or a "reset" that solves or changes everything. Instead, what we will experience is a process with things deteriorating at a fast pace but without one single event that overnight changes everything.
It is actually happening all around us right now. Let's just look at some examples of the stresses within the system. The ECB is facing bank failures in almost every member country. An Austrian bank just had to be bailed-in and the whole Italian banking system is on the verge of collapse. The Greek banks are already bankrupt although no one dares to declare it officially. The ECB knows that they only have one tool left to temporarily postpone a breakdown of the European banking system and that is to further increase its money printing programme. Only in the last 15 months, the balance sheet of the ECB has exploded by 45% to Euro 3 trillion. The Bundesbank, the German central bank, is totally aware of the predicament of the European banks. But they also know that they will be on the hook for the majority of the money printed by the ECB and therefore they have indicated that they will sue the ECB if it accelerates money printing.
The Fed is not printing money currently but in my view it is only a matter of time before we see a major QE programme in the US due to a deteriorating economy and a financial system under pressure. US outstanding derivatives are at least $500 trillion and most of that will just implode as counter-party fails. The Fed and the FDIC are concerned about this and that is why they just issued a warning to US banks. They told JP Morgan for example that the bank is unprepared for a crisis and that they have no plans for winding down their derivatives. JP Morgan's derivatives exposure, properly valued, is probably in excess of $100 trillion.
Another major US problem is the Treasury market. There is a total of $19 trillion debt owed by the US government. Of this amount $6.2 trillion is owned by foreigners. China and Japan hold around $4.5 trillion in total. The third largest holder is Saudi Arabia with $750 billion. And Saudi Arabia has now threatened to liquidate their holdings if the US probes Saudi Arabia's role in the September 11 attacks. But Saudi Arabia is not the only country that could cause chaos in the US treasury market. Japan will soon need to sell its US treasuries to survive temporarily. And China is also under pressure to reduce the over $30 trillion in outstanding debt, a debt which was only $2 trillion in 2000. Many observers will say that these countries will shoot themselves in the foot if they dump US treasuries since that will start a massive collapse of the treasury market. It is perfectly true that US treasuries is one of the biggest bubbles in markets today especially since the US will never repay this debt. The big foreign holders are of course aware that they will never be repaid with real money. They also know that the dollar is massively overvalued and likely to decline substantially. So whether they sell their holdings today, thus depressing the price, or wait until both treasuries and the dollar are worthless is one of these choices that will always be LOSE – LOSE. There could be a first mover advantage, especially since the only buyer is the US government and they would clearly try to accommodate the first selling country by just printing more money. But thereafter all hell will break loose and it will be too late to run for cover.
Japan is in a total mess too. The Bank of Japan will in 2017 own a staggering 50% of all Japanese government bonds and that will increase to 60% in 2018. How can this country ever believe that their economy will survive? They are printing unlimited amounts of worthless paper and it is having no beneficial effect on the economy. I have said it before and I will say it again, that the Japanese economy will sink into the Pacific in the most gigantic bankruptcy.
So most central banks and sovereign governments are virtually bankrupt but so are commercial banks. Their share prices are definitively telling us that. Most major banks' shares are down between 75% and 90% since 2007. Deutsche is down 87% and Citi 92% whilst Credit Suisse and Barclays are "only" down 78%! The massive falls in all major banks' share prices are clearly telling us that these banks are unlikely to survive.
If we look at global company profits, they are down 20% in mature markets and 25% in emerging markets since 2014. And so far we have seen global corporate defaults of $50 billion in 2016 which is the biggest since 2009.
It is all happening in front of our eyes right now. No one should wait for a major event because it will be a series of events as I have described and it has already started. It is time to take protective measures right now.
The need for insurance against these risks is greater than any time in history. Physical gold can still be bought at a bargain price but not for much longer.

Canada Preparing Ports for NAFTA Superhighway
Excerpt:Â Canada is developing Pacific ports to compete with the U.S. ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles, as well as with the Mexican ports of Manzanillo and Lazaro Cardenas, in an attempt to draw a substantial market share of the millions of containers expected to flow into North America in the coming decades from China and the Far East.To attract Chinese container traffic, the Canadian government has launched a major ports-rail-truck-airport transportation infrastructure designed to build its version of the emerging NAFTA Superhighway.
In October 2006, the Canadian minority government under the direction of Conservative Party leader Stephen Harper launched the Asia-Pacific Gateway and Corridor Initiative, or APGCI, as a key component of Canada's national transportation policy.
The idea is to prepare deep-water Pacific Ocean ports on Canada's West Coast to facilitate the import of millions of multi-modal containers from China as a "free trade gateway" between Asia and North America.
WND reported Mexico plans to extend the Trans-Texas Corridor south in what government officials in Mexico are calling a "Trans North America Corridor."

Married couple Wayne and Carl Hodgkinson-Shearing are looking forward to their first Father's Day this Sunday after recently been approved as foster carers for Doncaster Children's Services Trust.
They currently look after a nine-year-old boy, and are both relishing being called 'Dad'.
Wayne said: "All our friends had children and we would go to parties and were the only ones who didn't and we felt like we were missing out. We both wanted to become fathers and give a child a loving home. We looked into adoption and surrogacy, but eventually decided that fostering was right for us as we would be able to give a child in need a good start in life.
"Our lives have changed massively. Just like any parent, our whole world now revolves around the child we care for; we're always driving him around taking him to school, clubs and parties. We've also found that we've got a valid reason to go to the cinema to watch the children's films that we want to see!
"We came into fostering to offer a child a long term home and commit to making a difference to their early life. We feel that we've started to achieve that aim as now our nine-year-old calls us 'his family' and has told us he wants to stay with us until he is 18. So hopefully we'll have many more Father's Days to share together."
There is a shortage of foster carers in Doncaster, in particular those who could care for teenagers or for more than one child.
Caring adults of all ages and backgrounds can apply to Doncaster Children's Services Trust as long as they have the time to look after a child and space to give them a bedroom of their own.
For details telephone: 0808 129 2600 or visit www.fosteringindoncaster.co.uk. Alternatively, drop in to see the fostering team at the Trust's office in the Blue Building on Doncaster High Street, any time Monday to Friday, between 9am and 5pm. No need to make an appointment.

Northampton have signed veteran left-back Marcus Hall on a one-year contract.
Hall, 34, was released by Coventry at the end of last season having spent the majority of his career with the Sky Blues but for short spells at Nottingham Forest, Southampton and Stoke.
The experienced defender has spent the summer at Sixfields looking to earn a deal and Cobblers boss Ian Sampson has been impressed with what he has seen.
Sampson said: "We have generally been looking at younger players this summer but Marcus has an awful lot of quality and when we knew he was available and we had a vacancy at left-back he seemed a perfect choice.
"He is a first-class professional, he is a leader in the dressing room and on the pitch and having played all of his football in the top two divisions it is clear he will be an asset to us and the younger players we have.
"He is a fit lad and he can do a good job for us. He has trained with us over the last few weeks and played in a few of the friendlies. He has already settled in well and I am sure he will prove a good signing."

For a while now, I've whined and bitched and moaned and groaned about the fact that I have not yet returned to my pre-pregnancy body after giving birth 18 months ago. Granted, I am a couple of pounds lower than my pre-pregnancy weight, but my stomach, butt and thighs resemble nothing of my past. They are untoned, flabby and frankly, larger than I like.
With that being said, I have attempted to control my diet thinking that those aforementioned parts would miraculously tone themselves up. Uh, yeah, right. When you're rapidly approaching 40, just diet does not work anymore. It helps, but does not change the fact that as we age, our muscles lose their firmness. Especially those that gravity seems to pull at more LIKE MY ASS. What I once proudly flaunted in a tiny swimsuit at the lake now looks like two cats fighting under a blanket when I walk. The toned, tight stomach that was always my pride and joy (thank you genetics for a lot of that) now falls in the "muffin top" category. Although my thighs have never been my favorite body part, at least once upon a time you could see the definition in the muscles. Now, that's a figment of my imagination (you know, where you keep thinking you see something that's really not there…yep, that's what I'm talking about). So it's time to get serious…seriously.
The Heir to Blair does a little link up on Mondays called McFatty Mondays. I love Ms. BA because she is wonderfully honest and her struggles with her weight (even though I think she looks fab) are an inspiration. In hopes of getting my tone on, I'm linking up with her while I force myself to exercise while continuing to watch my diet. Granted, today is a bust because J2 made dinner reservations at some swanky Italian restaurant in Grapevine and brought me chocolates and wine, but tomorrow it's the gym, good healthy food and NO ALCOHOL. Not having my cocktail or glass of wine at the end of the day will probably kill me, but it's going to be worth it not consuming those extra calories and it may just kick start losing a few inches off my hip area.
See, No Neck and Sonnet's wedding is in 12 days and I don't have a dress yet. I bought a smokin' hot Nicole Miller one online, but when it arrived and tried it on, my best friend (T-Spot) said it made me look "hippy" and no, that is not "hippie" that means "wow, you look huge in the butt and thighs". There are many reasons why she is my BFF and her honest opinion when I ask for it is one of them. After that assessment I've been frantically searching for a pewter or gray dress that hides my problem areas and is age/wedding appropriate with no luck. If I would just lose a couple of inches off my butt this wouldn't be an issue! ARGH! It makes me even that much more disgusted and motivated at the same time to make a change.
When you don't feel good about yourself, it's hard to see the things in a positive light. Melissa from A Working Mom's Closet and Hope from Hope and the Dress Code is hosting a little get together called Fabulous in February: A Month of Positivity where people name the three things they like about themselves every Monday. As I am struggling with self image, this week it seems appropriate for me try and see some good, so here they are:
Physical Aspect: I really like my legs from the knee down, hence why I am on the search for the perfect dress that is at least knee length! Plus, I look forward to getting my great calves back while working out 🙂
Mental Aspect: When I get my mind set on something, consider it done! I am bound and determined to shave some inchess off in the next few weeks (hopefully ten days), so let's see how many I can shave off before the big wedding.
Spiritual/Emotional Aspect: I like that I'm a bit of a softie and that sappy commercials make me cry, as does my husband saying sweet things or my child learning something new. On days like today, my husband loves it. When I cry during AT&T commercials, he makes fun of me but it makes me, "me".
And…here's the really embarassing part. Here are the measurements of my "problem" areas so that I know what I've lost (because pounds to me don't really matter, inches do). I can't believe I'm sharing this, but what the heck!
Muffin top area (not really my waist, but not my hips either)- 34.5″
Butt: 41″
Hips/Thighs at widest point: 42″
So, wish me luck and if you have any great workouts you do, please let me know. I am always open to suggestions and such.
Oh, and have a wonderful Valentine's Day! Give those you love a great big hug, and for those you really love, something special 😉
"Til next time,

I have, over the years, worked several times with a women that I believe is possessed. She dose not like me, but, her husband kept bringing her to me. We don't see each other any more, but, her husband calls for prayer, often.
When I first saw this woman it was in church, She was very friendly to everyone. That is everyone but me. She would worship God in grandiose ways, that looked awesome. You'd see her standing on the chairs with her arms straight up to God, or lying flat on the floor weeping to God, or jumping & dancing her heart out.
I was young in Christ then & felt rejected by this great woman of God, because she would not come near or speak to me. It wasn't that that thing inside of her was afraid of my knowing it,. Others in the room had suspicions as to what was going on with her. It was that that thing inside of her knew enough of the future to know that I was the one who would be attacking it & putting it in danger. It was, at least, a year later before I ended up one on one with this woman.
There are many things that have gone on between this woman and myself that I could share but, the subject of this post is deception. so I will concentrate on that. I'm sure that you have heard that Satan knows that Bible better than us, well, it is sooo true.
You can see that she to, like the man in the previous post, worshiped God. Or should I say, pretended to worship God. I have no doubt that there is as part of this woman that knows God and tries to grab hold of her God. But, over the years, I have seen that part of her shrink. She still goes to church, lots of different churches, but only to disrupt. What I find most interesting about her is her graps of the Word of God.
I've sat with her many times and it is hard to get a word in. She is continually speaking the Word of God. This has gotten worse over the years as well. You ask her a question and she answers you with a verse. It would be good if we all could find, in our minds, the answer to every question from the word. And we know that all answers are there but, this was unbelievable. The quotes, from the word, came out of her like a machine guns rapid fire. You could barely listen as fast as she would spit them out.
This day I was sitting alone with her in my office. We were just going over some history getting ready for an inner healing, she needs deliverance, but, she only oked an inner healing. She started this rapid fire Bible quoting. I sat there & decided to say under my breath, "anything that is not of God can not speak". Oh, she shut up right away, but, her look was not one of surprise, it was more like "I'm going to kill you". Her eyes were locked on mine with pure hate. My flesh had a bit of "OH, no." Now, I'm praying as fast as she was quoting the Bible. "OH, God, I need protection. Guide me. HELP".
She stood up and started to walk out. I asked her where she was going and she just shrugged. "Are you coming back next week" I asked. She shrugged again. I quit talking, because, she could not answer. She walked out the door & I thanked God a lot. I knew how violent this woman could be. She tried to kill her husband with a gun once. He maced her in the eyes twice and it did not stop her. Thank you God for making her leave.
Deception. Satan knows the Bible better than we do. Big time. Satan can dance before the Lord. Yes, I look good doing it. Satan can talk in tongues. It's a deception, but, it can sound right. There is more that we need to be aware of. We need to stay close to God for His direction in these matters. The Antichrist will come with such deception and we need to understand His ways so we will not fall into these traps.
In these two posts I have described the cunningest of Satan. How He can pretend to be a Christian. Many will fall for these schemes. Seek God in everything. The hour is sooo late and these schemes will permeate this world. Are you prepared for these ploys? Without the Spirit of God you will fall victim to these schemes.

Again Deception
I have, over the years, worked several times with a women that I believe is possessed. She dose not like me, but, her husband kept bringing her to me. We don't see each other any more, but, her husband calls for prayer, often.

Oh I know a lot of pretentious Christians and let your eyes be set on God alone and don't let your faith be ruin seeing the evil out of this shameful so-called-Christians.
God bless!

I would be curious to know if this woman comes back. I hope you will keep us posted on this encounter.
It is interesting to see that after your comment she was unable to speak. It is as if the devil was bound, but bound inside her. Perhaps you should have someone else present during your next visit. I believe that she desires for this eveil spirit to be cast out from within her as much as you do. It could get ugly until that happens.
Thanks too for your comment on my page. I'll be checking in from time to time.
Be safe and be encouraged.

Tile is a very popular flooring option that offers homeowners several benefits. Tile is easy to install, easy to clean and easy to maintain. It is very durable, and it comes in a wide range of colors, patterns and designs. Because it is a cool material, it is the perfect option for homes in warm climates.
Effective Tile Cleaning in Raytown, Independence and Kansas City
Unfortunately, tile does have its drawbacks as well. One of the main drawbacks of using tile is the fact that tile cleaning can be a pain. While cleaning the tiles themselves is very easy, the grout in between the tiles often becomes dirty or stained, and this can be very difficult to clean.
Homeowners often tackle tile cleaning by getting on their hands and knees with a sponge or a toothbrush and scrubbing the tile and the grout. This method can require a ton of time and effort, and it still doesn't always get the grout as clean as new.
While tile cleaning can be a nuisance, it isn't reason to forego using tile altogether. Instead, homeowners should continue to use the beautiful tiles they use and love, but they should hire a professional tile cleaning service to do their tile cleaning dirty work for them.
Take Back Your Time with Tile Cleaning
To really do tile cleaning well, you need to put in both effort and the thing that most of us don't have much of–time. Time spent tile cleaning is time that you're losing that you could be spending with your family or indulging in your favorite hobby. Don't make the mistake of wasting precious time. Enlist the help of a skilled cleaning service and you'll have a beautiful, clean home AND the time to enjoy it.
Let Us Simplify Your Day with Affordable Tile Cleaning
Here at Above and Beyond, we work hard to do your tile cleaning for you so you don't have to. Whether your tiles are absolutely filthy or you simply don't have the time or the resources to get them as clean as you would like, we are here to help. We are experts at tile cleaning, and we can get your floors looking like new again in no time. Give us a call today to see what we can do for you. You'll be amazed at how great your floors will look, and you'll wonder why you didn't call sooner!

Since the beginning of time, philosophers have been trying to nail down exactly what makes for a good quality of life. According to the dictionary, the definition of quality of life is "the general well-being of a person or society, defined in terms of health and happiness, rather than wealth". Based on this, a country's "standard of living" is a very different thing, often tying directly into the amount of money someone has.
However, when trying to quantify the quality of life abroad, there are certain factors that must be included, such as indicators of economic success like employment and wealth. Other considerations include environment, housing, consumer goods, public services, recreation, education, general health, culture, the economy, and the political situation of a city. Within these categories, you can include more abstract concepts such as human rights, freedom, and happiness.
With all of these ideas and basics factored in, here is a list of the cities around the globe that currently have the best quality of life:
- In Europe: Vienna, Austria; Zurich, Switzerland; Munich, Germany; Düsseldorf, Germany; Frankfurt, Germany; Geneva, Switzerland; Copenhagen, Denmark; Bern, Switzerland
- In Canada: Vancouver, Ottawa, Toronto, Montreal
- In the United States: Honolulu, San Francisco
- Central and South America: Pointe-à-Pitre, Guadeloupe; San Juan, Puerto Rico; Montevideo, Uruguay
- In Asia-Pacific: Auckland, New Zealand; Sydney, Australia; Wellington, New Zealand; Melbourne, Australia; Perth, Australia; Tokyo, Japan; Singapore
- Middle East and Africa: Dubai, UAE; Abu Dhabi, UAE; Port Louis, Mauritius; Cape Town, South Africa
What do all of these cities have in common? The people here are truly content and pleased with the quality of their lives. They enjoy their freedoms, their accessibility to the things they need, and how their city is structured around them. Although happiness a very individual preference for each of them, in general, these cities have the attributes that make their inhabitants feel at home.
If you're looking to move abroad, cities like these that have a high quality of life are one possible place to start looking. By going this route, you could join the ranks of millions that feel they have a great life and a great city. Of course, every single one of these cities is completely unique with its own vibe, culture, and lifestyle, so no matter what you have in mind, why shouldn't you have the best possible life imaginable, whatever that looks like to you?

Ummm… So… … Thoughts? I'm kind of at a loss on this one. Wow…
"While students who apply to Satellite West now are randomly selected, Dock Street will likely pick its students based on several criteria, including test scores, grades, attendance records, and their performance on a group project, aiming to assess the students "holistically," according to the district superintendent.
While Dock Street plans to strive for greater diversity, McKnight said, many parents also made clear that they would not consider the school if it continued to admit any student who applied."

Are you available?"
To help, to listen,
To lend a hand,
To someone;
Someone in need
At the precipice
Of giving up,
At the brink of
Tipping over
And falling headlong
Into the abysmal pit
Of the three Dees-
Are you available?"
To help, to listen,
To lend a hand;
"Yes, I am", you say
"But no, you are not"
I know
"How do you know?",
You ask.
I know, because
Your eyes, your mind,
Your full attention
Are glued
To your phone,
To your gadget;
You did not see
My sad face,
You did not see
The little tears
Running down
My cheeks;
You did not hear
When in a choked voice,
I asked,
Are you available?
To help, to listen
To lend a hand
To me"

Autumn Grass Care Tips from Your Denver Landscape Service Experts
September 21, 2016
Homeowners tend to turn their attention away from their lawns as autumn arrives, because preparing the home itself for the coming cold months seems like a greater priority. But autumn is a crucial time of year for grass. As your Denver landscaping service experts, one of our goals is to offer you information you can actively and immediately use, so here are some grass care tips for autumn.
Using a fertilizer not specifically designed for fall is a mistake many homeowners make. Fertilizing in the fall is tremendously beneficial for a lawn. It helps the lawn survive the winter by encouraging enhanced root development and carbohydrate production and storage. But if you use any old lawn fertilizer that happens to be lying around your garage or on sale at the store, this fertilization could mostly stimulate top-growth, which means the visible blades of the grass could become taller. That's a problem, because if grass blades are growing significantly in autumn, they are not hardening off and undergoing the natural changes that help grass survive the cold of winter.
fall lawn care secret
is to use a fertilizer specifically designed for autumn. And granular fertilizers are better than liquid fertilizers in fall. Fertilize before your lawn changes from its usual green to a browner winter tint. If you wait too long and your lawn is already brown, skip fall fertilization. When a lawn turns brown for winter, it stops taking in nutrients. At that point, spreading fertilizer is a waste of time and money.
Mother Nature typically provides most or all of the water a lawn needs in autumn. Providing more water than a lawn needs as winter approaches could prevent the grass from hardening off to protect itself, so don't overwater. Lawns do best when there is a gentle weaning off from summer watering. As temperatures start to drop, gradually reduce the amount of water. By October, you probably should water only if there is an exceptionally warm, dry spell. If you have an irrigation system, stop running your preset summer watering schedule and instead turn on the system only as necessary.
Don't cut your grass shorter for fall. Some homeowners lower their mower-blade height in autumn because it is easier to rake leaves off of short grass. This also lowers the odds of winter
snow mold
problems. But when you cut grass blades short in autumn, you rob them of their capacity to convert sunlight into nutrients – nutrients they need to store to survive the winter. So, mow your grass the same height in the fall that you do throughout the spring and summer, because the advantages of mowing shorter are not worth the potential for long-term damage.

It's A Mesh7/22/16
feel like I have been flashing my girls way too much lately. I will blame the hot weather -I mean I would honestly not be wearing ANY clothes if it was appropriate! The weather is too hot to spend it outside of the comfort on your air-conditioned home and if you do leave your house, it better be somewhere near the sea/pool. What is the weather in your country?
I am writing in the comfort of my seat on a boat going to Crete. Crete is Greece's largest island in case you did not know! Funny thing is my last name is actually pretty common in Crete because of the way it ends (Toubanaki) but this is my first time visiting! The only con is that I hate the deep sea! I am really scared that my eleven year old cousin felt the need to comfort me! *insert emoticon with x's as eyes here*
I will be sharing more pictures from Crete on Instagram (follow here) and will make a full post once I am back!
Let's talk about this playsuit now, shall we?. If you like it then you will definitely love the price! Only 11 euros -how awesomely awesome is that? Due to capital control in my country I cannot purchase anything online. I only have a balance of 50 to 70 euros depending on how much I got paid for an article through Pay Pal so I am trying to play smart. I usually end up on Boohoo.com which has an amazing sale collection (find here) and I can guarantee about the quality! I have purchased way too many times from them and every time the products -even those on sale- are in perfect condition! Just to clarify; I am not getting paid to write this and I want you to believe me when I say I would not lie even if this post was a collaboration.
