L'oreal Professionnel Mythic Oil Hair Masque.

My take on L'oreal Professionnel Mythic Oil Hair Masque:-
I am using L'Oreal Professional shampoo, masque and serum since 2009. Yes! that's when I did my first ever hair straightening done. Been chemically threated I want something more concentrated and moisturization for my hair. Loreal Professional –Liss Ultime shampoo and hair masque was my ultimate favorite but I was bored using it continuously. When the brand introduced Mythic oil range I thought of giving it shot mainly the hair masque.
I brought 500ml directly from one of my local store which is exclusively available in salon. It's a huge golden colour tub with wide open screw cover cap which looks very classy and exquisite. The Masque is superb thick, smooth, creamy and concentrated feels like butter. It is thicker than TBS body butters. One need to dig in fingers and scoop out. The smell is pleasant not overpowering but slightly different than other L'oreal professional Masques. I love how my hair smells after each wash. The smell last for 2 days. As the masque is unbelievably thicker you need very less quantity around 1 tablespoon for waist long hair. I already used 5 times till date and I must say I am glad that I brought it. During application it glides smoothly and makes hair shaft soft and supply. I have notice vast difference, my hair feel softer, fizz free and manageable. In fact after towel dry I can easily run my fingers between my hair shafts, it make my hair more de-tangled and nourished. Those who have used L'Oreal masque they know how it make hair sticky and heavy but this one works like miracle…It don't weigh down my hair neither felt sticky or heavy. Now my hair feel like hair not like jharu (broom) 😛 :yes:
I feel my hair becoming softer after each wash. However, as suggested those who have dry hair, they can use hair masque as your regular conditioner and I am 100% sure you will feel the difference. 🙂
What I like about L'oreal Professionnel Mythic Oil Hair Masque:
- Highy concentrated thick buttery texture of the masque.
- The golden colour packaging looks so elegant and classy.
- The smell is pleasant and stay for 2 days after each wash.
- First ever Paraben Free Formula.
- It doesn't weigh down your hair or make it sticky.
- Formulated for all hair types.
- Contains Argan oil, which is rich in Vit E. Cotton seed oil oil adds nourishment and extreme softness to the hair with a weightless finish.
- Contain Omega 3 oil.
- It gets easily absorbed into hair once applied and makes hair nourished and smooth.
- After first wash I felt my fizzy hair is more manageable, soft and de-tangled.
- Final word – it is a must have masque you should try. 🙂 a big thumbs up :yes: :yes:
What I don't like about L'oreal Professionnel Mythic Oil Hair Masque:
- Nothing that I hate about this masque except the bulky packaging which can be a pain during traveling…Another one is I don't like digging in fingers each time to scoop it out which is unhygienic. But honestly I am used to it :-P.
- The price is towards higher side.
Wiseshe rating: 4.5/5
I will definitely absolutely recommend this masque to everyone. It can used for all type of hair. If you see 500ml available in shops go get it ASAP. This way you can save lots of money and get more than double the quantity ;-). I m highly impressed and my next buy would be Mythic oil 😛

The Radiant Buddha. Courtesy of the V&A. This statue is co-owned with the British Museum, and showing there until March 2007.
The V&A contains significant and beautiful Buddhist artefacts from across India, Tibet, Afghanistan and Nepal and covering the whole history of the religion. Curators at the V&A have kindly picked out a few items from the collections currently on display to look out for when visiting the museum.
We've organised them more or less chronologically so you can see how the art of Buddhism over the 2,500 years of its existence.
The founder of Buddhism, Siddharta Gautama, was born in the 6th century BC. Initially living a very privileged life, he travelled the world for many years as an ascetic - at one point almost starving himself to death. He finally achieved enlightenment under a Bodhi tree, and founded the faith.
Sandstone pillar from Bihar. Courtesy of the V&A
The site of the tree has been a place of pilgrimage for centuries. Excavations in the area in the 1880s revealed this sandstone pillar, created sometime between 100BC and 100AD. It's part of a sandstone railing encircling the tree - it was probably built to replace an even older one made of wood.
Buddhist art often includes animal fables, describing the previous lives of the Buddha. The one at the bottom of this pillar probably tells the story of his incarnation as a goose that offered its life for another.
These 'Jakata stories' about the Buddha were translated into Persian, Greek, Latin and Hebrew and formed the basis of some of the most famous story sequences of the Common Era - Sinbad, the Arabian Nights and Aesop's Fables - the latter being compiled by a monk in 14th century Byzantium around 1500 years after this pillar was carved.
Mahabodhi Temple. Courtesy of the V&A.
Today, a tree still grows on the spot, believed to be a descendent of the original. Chinese histories of Buddhism note the existence of this tree from the 5th century AD onwards. The Mahabodhi Temple also occupies the same site. This image of the temple dates from the 12th century. It can partly be seen as a tourist souvenir. But it also acts as a proxy for being at the holy place after pilgrims returned home.
Head of Buddha, probably from Afghanistan, 5th century
This 5th century head is probably from Afghanistan, but the style of it is reminiscent of Greek statues - indicating some of the cultural cross-fertilisation that occured in the region. Eight hundred years before Alexander the Great had invaded Afghanistan, and the names of some modern Afghani cities are corruptions of his name. By the 5th century this Greek-influenced style was on the wane, overtaken by the Gupta style which spread through Asia along with Buddhism, and became the trademark style associated with the religion.
The Radiant Buddha
This is the 'Radiant Buddha' in the typical Gupta style. It has the appearance of transparent clothes. The object is small and portable, unlike some of the other almost lifesize figures on show in the galleries. The Radiant Buddha is shared between the V&A and the British Museum - you can see in the Hotung Gallery of the British Museum until March 2007. You can read its history here
Despite being 7th century, the statue doesn't show any signs of having been buried, so was probably used in worship for hundreds of years. A trace of blue colouring still stuck to his hair suggests that he was brought to Tibet at some point, although he's most likely to have been made in the great monastery of Nalanda in India, not far from Bihar.
Bodhisatva Avalokitesvara
This torso is from India, 400 years later. It represents Bodhisatva Avalokitesvara the primary Buddhist saviour figure. It was created in the 9th century, and again excavated in the 1880s. Although only the torso remains, the fluidity and craft of the body make it a beautiful piece of design and one of the V&A's most treasured objects.
Black basalt Buddha. Courtesy of the V&A.
In the 11th and 12th centuries Buddhism declined in East India, and few monuments survive from that period. Buddhism suffered both from the revival of popular Hinduism and from Muslim invasions, and was nearing collapse. This black basalt Buddha is one of the few survivals. The damage to the face and arm of this otherwise immaculate statue suggest deliberate desecration.
His posture indicates the story of Buddha's fight against the evil goddess Mara, but later the lotus position became the norm for images of the Buddha.
A dakini from Tibet. Courtesy of the V&A.
Although Tibet had early contact with Buddhism, the religion was not widely adopted until 7th century.
This picture of a Daikini - or "skywalker" in Tibetan, looks incredibly fierce with a ritual chopper (karttrka) in one hand, and a skull cup signifying emptiness in the other. However, her terrifying looks are aimed to protect the followers of Buddhism. These spirits were supposed to initiate and teach Tibetan yogis.
This is the earliest Tibetan painted scroll with a date on it: 1477AD. These objects - like the Buddhist textiles - risk being damaged by light if left on display for too long, so the V&A swaps around the images every few months
Portable shrine. Courtesy of the V&A.
This shrine is from 15th or 16th century Nepal. It would have originally contained an image of the Buddha in the centre. The surrounding niches are filled with deities and guardian figures. However, along the lower border there is an image of monk: presumably the person who commissioned the shrine. It has closing doors, and was portable.
18th century Buddha. Courtesy of the V&A.
This gold Buddha is 18th century. It was made in Tibet and its face and hair are painted. There's a prayer written around the bottom for the progress towards enlightenment of all beings. The curators tell us that people sometimes leave money at its feet as an offering as they pass through the galleries.
There are also many objects associated with Chinese Buddhism in Gallery 44. Buddhism thrived in China after it had begun to decline in India. Especially look out for this silk banner. It is one of the textiles controversially brought back from the Caves of the Thousand Buddhas at Dunhuang by Aurel Stein.
This is an amazing survival - made in around 700 - 900 AD it is still intact after more than 1000 years because of the exceptionally dry desert air of Dunhuang.

Mazie Hirono on Welfare & Poverty
Democratic challenger; Representative (HI-2)
Proponent's argument to vote Yes:Sen. BARBARA MIKULSKI (D, MD): [In developing national service over many years] we were not in the business of creating another new social program. What we were in the business of was creating a new social invention. What do I mean by that? In our country, we are known for our technological inventions. But also often overlooked, and sometimes undervalued, is our social inventions.
We created national service to let young people find opportunity to be of service and also to make an important contribution. But not all was rosy. In 2003, when I was the ranking member on the appropriations subcommittee funding national service, they created a debacle. One of their most colossal errors was that they enrolled over 20,000 volunteers and could not afford to pay for it. That is how sloppy they were in their accounting. I called them the "Enron of nonprofits."
And they worked on it. But all that is history. We are going to expand AmeriCorps activity into specialized corps. One, an education corps; another, a health futures corps; another, a veterans corps; and another called opportunity corps. These are not outside of AmeriCorps. They will be subsets because we find this is where compelling human need is and at the same time offers great opportunity for volunteers to do it.
Opponent's argument to vote No:No senators spoke against the amendment.
Congressional Summary: Strengthen and Unite Communities with Civics Education and English Development Act of 2011: Allows state leadership activities grants to be used to provide technical assistance to faith and community-based organizations desiring grants under the Adult Education and Family Literacy Act:
Sponsor's Press Release (Rep. Mike Honda):The SUCCEED Act helps new Americans integrate into the social and economic fabric of this country, through English language education and civics instruction. The SUCCEED Act makes grants available to states to establish New American Councils that bring together business, faith, civic, philanthropic, non-profit and education stakeholders to create and implement immigrant integration programs.
Rep. HARE: The unemployed don't want another benefits check. They want a job. H.R. 4290 would tackle this problem by creating and helping retain millions of jobs. It will reach that goal by investing $60 billion per year over 3 years in TARP money.
Economic inequality is the result of two and a half decades of government policies and rules governing the economy being tilted in favor of large asset owners at the expense of wage earners. Tax policy, trade policy, monetary policy, government regulations and other rules have reflected this pro-investor bias. We propose the introduction or reintroduction of a package of legislative initiatives that will close America's economic divide and address both income and wealth disparities.

About 2 months ago I announced I would be participating in Pat Flynn's Niche Site Duel 2.0. Partially to see if I could do it and also to see what I could learn to share with my clients and readers. Initially I planned to blog about the progress of my new site and about participating in the challenge but the more I've thought about it I though that's not what you really want. What readers want are the lessons and how you can use them on your non- niche sites. So this is my first of a series of post sharing lessons I learned from Niche Site Duel.
The first MAJORRR lesson I'm learning is the importance of key words. I knew they were important before and always encourage targeting keywords. But with the duel I'm learning a lot more about keyword research, analyzing competition and using these key words to drive traffic to your site or your blog.
What can keywords do for you?
I'm doing a targeted keyword site and hearing from others doing the same I'm seeing really how powerful they are. So far my new site (only 6 weeks old) is getting 40-50 hits a day 75% coming from organic search alone. And that is nothing compared to some of the other Duelers who are getting 1000+ visits a day. The numbers vary based on the keywords use, but all of this is with no advertising, and minimal social media engagement. Just Keyword traffic.
Finding your keyword
The key with the niche sites is that they are all based around this "golden" keyword so of course you have amazing results and large amount of traffic, right?
How would that help if you don't have such a keyword?
Well the easy answer is you find one.
The good news is there are millions of keywords out there that can still pull really good search results; the hard part is finding one. For niche sites there is whole process to finding a keyword and evaluating it for low completion and high traffic results.
The hard part about adapting this to your business is your business site already has a key word, like I am an eCommerce Web designer and Strategy coach in New Jersey. Many people get stuck on these words and never research to find other related terms that could be getting better search results. Using a tool like Google keyword planner or Long tail pro [aff link] (which is a paid application I use) you can put in those keywords you think people are using and get other related keywords that people are really using.
I highly recommend reading Pat Flynn's post on the detailed process to keyword search and tools to use (free and paid). Using a tool like Google keyword planner, you can find a keyword that has high monthly local search results (I start with 1000) and then check the top 10 sites for that keyword will be hard to out rank. When analyzing the top 10 sites you look at a number of factors, including:
- Are they a big name store sites? If yes it may be hard to out rank
- Is the site all about the keyword or just 1 or 2 articles? If it is just 1 or 2 post about the keyword that means there is room for you to out rank.
- Are there a lot of YouTube or other media in the top 10? That means either it's a very visual topic or there isn't enough written content. Either way both are good signs
- How old is the post or the site? Older links in the top 10 means people aren't writing about this and bring new information to the topic.
After you've decided if this is something you can beat you can then focus your site on that.
For example when I researched my eCommerce web designer strategy coach in New Jersey keywords, I got the following results of other keywords people are really searching for.
Based on this I looked at the top 10 for these words using some of the questions I mentioned and now I have a list of pretty good targeted keywords. The thing I like about Long Tail Pro Platinum edition is does some of the comparison work for me and gives me the KC number you see in the last column which indicates how easy or hard this is to rank for. But you don't need advanced tools with a little more time and work at you can still get good results for free.
What to do with your new found keywords
After creating a nice keyword list, you then can start driving traffic to your site or blog just by incorporating a few of the phrases into the text and titles of the site for example instead of saying my about page, I can say learn more about the NJ web strategy coach. I would also change a few phrase on my services pages to match these words and maybe use a few for blog post topics. Just be careful not to over use the words just incorporate them where it's natural, don't just stuff the keywords in text all over your site.
So what does this do for you and your site, well first helps your site it show up in Google search results more because there aren't as many sites that match the exact term. Researching keywords can also help you with new product/ services ideas. And it makes sure you are using the words and phrases you potential clients would use to describe your services; imagine if you are searching for something and you see that someone has written about or offers a product exactly what you are looking for. The customer will think you have ESP, but we will just know you do good keyword research 😉
I hope this is really helpful and has been as big of a lesson learned for you as it was for me. Now it's your turn, do a little keyword research for your site, and in the comments let me know what kind of great results to found.

Mobile to influence more couponing
Mobile is becoming an important channel for couponing. Consumers are using mobiles both in-store and before entering to find coupons and coupon codes to use in their shopping. According to one expert, mobile will become even more important over the next year.
Kristina: How has digital couponing changed over the past year?
Kate Atty, Director of Marketing, Persio: In 2015, nearly all mobile users searched for coupons on their phone. Usage and redemption has been on an upward trend for the past several years, and retailers have responded by incorporating coupons into their overall strategy, fueling the cycle by making it easier for shoppers to find and use them. Coupons.com reported that heavy coupon users spend 114% more than non users, and actually shop 47% more often than others. In 2015 we saw many retailers adopt innovative tactics to fuel the growth of this trend.
Kristina: What role is mobile now playing with digital coupons?
Kate: In all likelihood, mobile is the reason for the resurgence of coupons of late. The simple convenience of being able to add and store a coupon on the device until it's ready for use eliminates any of friction for users of printed coupons. Mobile coupons can include a countdown timer showing how long the user has until it expires, or associated calendar alerts notifying customers of validity window. This prevents frustration of a shopper who gets to the counter only to realize the coupon has expired and choose between paying full price or abandoning the items altogether.
Kristina: Are retailers making the most of coupons?
Kate: Some are, but many still have a suboptimal user experience when it comes to acquiring coupons. Jo-Ann Fabric & Craft Stores features a "take it with you" option on the coupons section of their site, where shoppers can simply select the offers they want, check "take it with you," prompting a pop up where they can and enter in their mobile number or email. The offers they selected are immediately sent directly to their phone, email, or both based on their selection. This experience stands in stark contrast to printing the entire web page of coupons, cutting them down and not losing them before getting to the store, as is the case for many retailers still offering printable coupons on their site.

"Your son makes himself a target for bullies." While this sentence wasn't the only reason that I pulled my kid out of the clutches of the public school in the small town we lived in, it was one of the many reasons behind my thinking. For one, I thought "Way to blame the victim here!" For another, I thought, "If the teachers aren't behind my kid, advocating for his fair treatment from classmates why is he going to this school?"
There are many different reasons why parents choose to homeschool. As a single parent, it's not a decision I thought I'd ever make – I mean, time is limited enough as it is. However, I still believe it was the best decision I could have made for my son's growth and development.
The Public School Story
My story begins with a very eager student and a school system that was looking hard to place a label on him. I'm not sure if this is just my experience, but I found that being a single parent automatically raised the eyebrows of administrators in my son's two public schools. Perhaps it was because it was small town America; perhaps it was because I've been going it completely alone on the parenting path from the beginning. Whatever it was, my son became a target.
Before the schools realized I was parenting solo, I got compliments, "He's sits so still;" "He listens well;" "He seems attentive." Shortly after parent teacher conferences when I had to explain, "No, the other person contributing to the DNA of my child will not be in attendance," things began to change for us.
The "attentive" child suddenly had something wrong with him – I was told this was because he was "high risk" because, after all, I was a single parent. When I pointed out that I was also a graduate student, with a graduate student assistantship who rarely went out and worked two jobs while attending school full-time as an undergraduate, this didn't faze them.
They began testing for learning disabilities. Never mind that my child was pulled out of class because he disagreed with a teacher's political views in one instance, argued that religion wasn't supposed to be in public school, and was able to do math at a higher level than other kids. They were convinced there was something wrong.
When we switched schools for second grade I thought, "Things are getting better" after the IEP meeting where I was told "I don't understand this diagnosis. There's nothing wrong with your child." However, my son would come home and tell me of more reasons he was pulled from class. When I asked the teachers why they were continuing this even though they'd determined he did not have a learning disability, they told me that it was because he seemed to do better when pulled from class.
The Decision
The decision to homeschool was made for many reasons. One reason was that my otherwise outgoing and happy child started seeming despondent, depressed, and withdrawn. He'd often come home from school either in tears or close to tears. He was being bullied. He was tired of being pulled out of class and feeling like he had no clue what was going on in school. He said the words "I hate myself" to me. Something needed to change. I looked into private schools, but they were overpriced and not close enough to home. As an 8th grader, and again for the first semester of my 11th grade year, I had been homeschooled. My brother had been homeschooled from fifth grade on. It seemed like a natural choice – especially when I was called in yet again about a bullying incident at a school that had a "no bullying policy" to be told that my kid made himself a target.
I was afraid he'd grow up to feel like there was something wrong with him that made people and administrators pick on him. I was afraid that he'd be lost in the system. I was afraid he'd get put into the public school's dumping ground of special education. So, in February of 2007, I lined everything up. My child did not set foot in his classroom again, I had a curriculum purchased and lesson plans set up, and we began our journey at the kitchen table in my small grad student apartment.
The Reflection
It was very difficult to homeschool as a single parent, I won't lie. However, within three months, my son went from struggling reader to working at grade level in every subject except reading – where he'd jumped from emergent reader to reading at a fifth grade level. Since then, we've been through ups and downs, from falling behind because of life stuff, to catching up within a matter of weeks, to being ahead. At the time of this article, he was in "7th grade" working at a high school and college level in reading, history, and science, learning four languages, and working through an algebra book. Kids develop at different rates – and the administrators at the public school were right, he did thrive with individual attention – my individual attention. Taking my kid out of public school was the best decision I made.
The decision to take your kids out of public school and teach them at home is not something that should be made lightly. Instead, it should be done with a lot of forethought. While to some people it seemed impulsive, I'd been studying methods for homeschooling for a while and implementing them when I could after school. Be sure you understand your state and local rules governing homeschooling. Most of all, have fun! Your kids only have one childhood. How do you want them to remember it?
If you homeschool, what helped you make your decision? If you're thinking about homeschooling, what is making you consider the decision?

Scorpio, The Scorpion
October 23 to November 22
Modality: Fixed
Element: Water
Ruler: Pluto (Mars)
Keywords: Intense, ambitious, perceptive, determined, focused, secretive, jealous
As a Scorpio you are intensely determined, and are rarely deterred from achieving your goals (though this can be seen at times as stubbornness). Shrewd and intuitive, you have a mysterious aura that can be interpreted as secretive (which you indeed are at times).
Scorpios are choosy about their friends, and often have many acquaintances but few close friends; you prefer spending time with these close friends to large social events. When it comes to love, romance is essential, but you must be careful not to become too possessive or jealous. Your opposite sign, Taurus, would make a good match, as would other the water signs (Cancer and Pisces). Family relationships can be either closely bonded or detached, and often you have relationships with both types with differing family members. With children, be careful not to be too giving and to set boundaries.
When it comes to careers, Scorpios strive for influence, and do well in leadership positions; you value a fast-paced environment, but must be careful not to push yourself too hard. You have the potential for great earning power, but do have the tendency to splurge, so be sure to budget and think each purchase through.
You are kind-hearted and do all you can for those close to you.
For the year ahead:
Affirmation: Facing change with a take-charge attitude serves me well.
- Jupiter has been in Cancer (your ninth house of travel and higher knowledge) since June; it will remain in that sign until July of 2014, when it moves into Leo, your tenth house of career. Jupiter in your ninth house is a good time to take classes, travel, and expand your horizons; Jupiter in your tenth house is an auspicious placement for career advancement and new opportunities.
- Saturn advances in your sign, until December of 2014. This could be a time of reflection, and possibly regret. You may feel the urge to begin something new, or return to a project that was once left unfinished.
- Uranus continues its long tour of Aries, your sixth house of health and employment. This means that for the next seven years or so you can expect changes in your work life; these changes and shifts can be both positive and negative, so be sure you consider all signs of each situation before making a decision.
- Pluto continues in Capricorn, your third house, where it brings about a desire to discover your inner self, whether through study or creative pursuit. Your third house is also associated with family and neighbors, so you may become more involved with these individuals as well.

REPORTING · 18th December 2015
Walter McFarlane
Kitimat Council saw a special presentation from several Cable Car Residents on the creation of a playground in the Cable Car Neighbourhood on Monday, December 14th. Lani Gibson got up with her children to address Council. There were other Cable Car residents sitting in the gallery.
We feel strongly that our children should have the same opportunity as the children who live in Kitimat proper to have a park in their neighbourhood. We recognize that the cost of a park in that neighbourhood may be a little bit more in Cable Car then in town, but the reason we strongly urge Council to allocate funds for the 2016 budget process and not delay until 2017 as is suggested in the report, said Gibson.
They suggested Council provide funds to provide and clear crown land in 2016 and the rest of the funds be put aside for 2017 to build the park.
Gibson told Council Cable Car was not supposed to have a park when it was conceived due to the lot size of the properties. However, she stressed a park would be a good place for residents to gather and make social connections with their neighbours and for children to play with other children.
She expressed older children do not want to tag along with their parents or have play dates arranged for them. They cannot go to a park without first getting into a car. Cable Car also does not give children an opportunity to make a friend who they can hang out with after school.
Three locations were given in the report to Council. The first was next to a gully on Coho. The second was at the paved area at the end of Grayling, near the trail to the community fair grounds. The third was at the end of Chinook, near the river bank. While it was implied in the report to Council all three of these locations would be a long distance for families in Cable Car to walk, Gibson pointed out people walk the perimeter of the subdivision and older children can ride their bikes there.
She said they were not concerned about animals in Cable Car, because parents teach their children about wildlife safety no matter where in Kitimat they live. However, a 30 metre buffer zone was proposed around the park to give them sight lines to wildlife.
Gibson expressed the Cable Car residents are in agreement about the first location not being ideal. While it is the only property on District land, it is too close to a stream and private properties. In addition, one of the owners did not wish it to be there.
She suggested Council approach the Province about purchasing or leasing lot two or three and then receiving further input from the residents of Cable Car. She expressed the parents were willing to work with Council to make certain the park succeeded.
In summary, we are asking you to support us, we want to enhance our social fabric of our neighbourhood and were counting on your support, said Gibson.
Councillor Claire Rattee asked if there was a general consensus between options 2 and 3. The reply from Gibson was they have not formed an opinion on either location because they wanted an idea of what the costs would be to acquire and clear the area.
Rattee asked if there was any opposition to having a park in Cable Car. Gibson said there was opposition to teens using these locations as places to party. The areas they chose would be at the end of existing roads to prevent parties from taking place there. She added that teens also need places which they can go.
Cable Car actually has a lot of young families compared to when I first moved out there ten years ago. Its just been an explosion of young people wanting a certain lifestyle for their kids and as I said, we need to be able to connect with each other and build that community, said Gibson.
Councillor Edwin Empinado thanked everyone for coming and told them they did inquire about this a year ago. Councillor Rob Goffinet asked what they thought about carving out a spot north of Rainbow to place some parkland.
Council was told by Martin Gould, head of the recreational services, there is a right of access on the street but they eliminated it as an option because they would have to bring in a group to clear the land and prepare it. The two recommended locations would have to be cleared but the workers would not have to work around and behind peoples homes.
Councillor Mario Feldhoff moved a motion to refer the playground to the 2016 budget, and for geographic option two, to be considered by staff. He expressed location three could prevent them from expanding Cable Car and option two was closer to a greater number of homes.
Goffinet wanted to hear from the parents where they want the playground. He offered an amendment, which was considered friendly, to include option three to their list of places to look. Council was told they would have to approach the crown first and find out if they were interested in selling or leasing.
Feldhoff expressed the staff would have to communicate with the crown right away, prior to the 2016 budget. The motion was called and carried.

Dark Circles
The skin of the eye area is very sensitive and fragile, easily revealing the signs of fatigue or age. Eye circles appear first at the corner of the eye and then spread on the contour which makes the eyes sad and tired.
Eye circles can have different origins: fatigue, deficient microcirculation, unhealthy lifestyles, and they are often hereditary.
At True You Skin Clinics we offer a wide range of treatments including:
Dermal Fillers
Tear Trough
ZO Skin Consult
Please call +44(0)1133458682 for further information on how to book a consultation.
What are Dark Circles?
Dark circles are historically thought to be associated with a lack of sleep, but there are other factors that may be responsible. Dark circles may be considered cosmetically unappealing, but they are rarely a medical concern.
'Periorbital hyperchromia' – a technical name for dark circles under the eyes – refers to the area around the eye socket and excessive pigmentation, one of the most common reasons for circles under the eyes.
Dark circles under the eyes are common in both men and women, and sometimes in children too. Having dark circles under the eyes may simply be a genetic condition, with people from an Asian or African background sometimes having more pigment around the eyes.
What causes Dark Circles?
As people age, their skin becomes thinner due to a reduction of fat and collagen, making the blood vessels beneath it more noticeable, which thereby makes the area under the eyes appear darker. In addition, as skin sags from ageing baggy lower eyelids may cast a shadow on the skin below, creating the appearance of dark circles under the eyes.
Other factors:
Allergies: rubbing and irritating the eyes.
Nasal congestion: swelling of the blood vessels.
Dehydration: Not having enough fluids in the body can shrink skin cells, making dark circles more noticeable. Simply drinking water can bring about a marked reduction in the circles.
Stress & lack of sleep: Chronic stress can make getting a good night's sleep more difficult, which can make the skin appear more pale and the eyes more sunken.
Exposure to the sun: Sunlight can prompt the production of melanin, darkening the area around the eyes.
Drinking alcohol: The consumption of alcohol allows the small blood vessels in the skin to dilate, or expand.
Pregnancy: Changes in hormone levels due to pregnancy can also dilate the small blood vessels.
Anaemia: An iron deficiency, affects the circulation of the blood.
Smoking cigerettes: which affects the blood and circulation.
Dermal fillers from £180.
Skin care products from £30.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV) — UPDATE 11/8/18:
Thanks to support from the community and an organization that saves animals, a dog that was rescued by soldiers in Afghanistan has arrived to its new home in Colorado Springs.
The Plante family was able to adopt Cardi thanks to donations and the action taken by Puppy Rescue Mission. The Fort Carson family reached out to 11 News for help after the dog was found on the brink of death. WHSV's sister station KKTV reached out to the Puppy Rescue Mission and the public to assist. More than $5,000 was raised.
This is the story of Cardi from The Puppy Rescue Mission (posted months before Cardi arrived in Colorado Springs this past weekend):
"Little Cardi was found by my husband and his unit that is deployed to Afghanistan. She was extremely sick and barely holding onto life. The unit has bonded over this sweet little girl. She has helped them through some tough times the last few weeks. We just want to give her a better life in the USA."
Life for a dog in Afghanistan is brutal. Most do not live past 3 years of age. Any animal in a war torn country struggles to survive but put them in a country that is actively at war and the obstacles are huge...lack of food, shelter, vetting, love and most of all an environment that does not have the education or resources to respect their animals. The dogs in Afghanistan are guardians and for thousands of years was vital to the tribes that raised sheep and goats. Once the Taliban restricted the people to care for their animals the life for the dogs and cats has been horrific. The animals bond with our soldiers because their hearts are good.
Lets get this sweet girl to the USA!

By the early 1800s Belfast was a major port. It played a key role in the Industrial Revolution, becoming the biggest linen producer in the world, earning it the nickname "Linenopolis". By the time it was granted city status in 1888, it was a major centre of Irish linen production, tobacco-processing and rope-making. Shipbuilding was also a key industry; the Harland and Wolff shipyard, where the RMS Titanic was built, was the world's biggest shipyard. It also has a major aerospace and missiles industry. Industrialisation and the inward migration it brought made Belfast Ireland's biggest city and it became the capital of Northern Ireland following the Partition of Ireland in 1922.

You can also double-click the color group in the Samples panel to open the dialog box.
If the map file is too large and your computer freezes or even can't open it quickly:
1. Try to reduce the color resolution of the video card (display) to 256 colors while working with a large map.
2. Using Windows Task Manager, select all the application you don't need, while working with map, just turn them off.
3. Launch Adobe Illustrator. (DO NOT OPEN the vector map file)
4. Start the Windows Task Manager using administrator rights > Find the "Illustrator" process > set the «real time» priority,
5. Open the file. When you see the LEGACY FONT popup window – click "OK" (do not update). You can restore the TEXT later.
6. Can also be useful: When file is opened – Edit > Settings > Basic Settings > disable smoothing. /// It looks scary, but works quickly)))
We recommend saving the file in Adobe Illustrator 10 version. It's much more stable when working with VERY BIG size files.
Belfast remains a centre for industry, as well as the arts, higher education, business, and law, and is the economic engine of Northern Ireland. Belfast is still a major port, with commercial and industrial docks dominating the Belfast Lough shoreline, including the Harland and Wolff shipyard. It is served by two airports: George Best Belfast City Airport, and Belfast International Airport 15 miles (24 km) west of the city. It is listed by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network (GaWC) as a Gamma minus global city.
Belfast is at the western end of Belfast Lough and at the mouth of the River Lagan giving it the ideal location for the shipbuilding industry that once made it famous. When the Titanic was built in Belfast in 1911–1912, Harland and Wolff had the largest shipyard in the world. Belfast is situated on Northern Ireland's eastern coast at 54°35′49″N 05°55′45″W. A consequence of this northern latitude is that it both endures short winter days and enjoys long summer evenings. During the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year, local sunset is before 16:00 while sunrise is around 08:45. This is balanced by the summer solstice in June, when the sun sets after 22:00 and rises before 05:00.
In 1994, a weir was built across the river by the Laganside Corporation to raise the average water level so that it would cover the unseemly mud flats which gave Belfast its name (from Irish Béal Feirste, meaning 'The sandy ford at the river mouth'). The area of Belfast Local Government District is 42.31 square miles (109.6 km2).
The River Farset is also named after this silt deposit (from the Irish feirste meaning "sand spit"). Originally a more significant river than it is today, the Farset formed a dock on High Street until the mid 19th century. Bank Street in the city centre referred to the river bank and Bridge Street was named for the site of an early Farset bridge. Superseded by the River Lagan as the more important river in the city, the Farset now languishes in obscurity, under High Street. There are no less than eleven other minor rivers in and around Belfast, namely the Blackstaff, the Colin, the Connswater, the Cregagh, the Derriaghy, the Forth, the Knock, the Legoniel, the Milewater, the Purdysburn and the Ravernet.
The city is flanked on the north and northwest by a series of hills, including Divis Mountain, Black Mountain and Cavehill, thought to be the inspiration for Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels. When Swift was living at Lilliput Cottage near the bottom of Belfast's Limestone Road, he imagined that the Cavehill resembled the shape of a sleeping giant safeguarding the city. The shape of the giant's nose, known locally as Napoleon's Nose, is officially called McArt's Fort probably named after Art O'Neill, a 17th-century chieftain who controlled the area at that time. The Castlereagh Hills overlook the city on the southeast.
Capital of Northern Ireland
Belfast is Northern Ireland's capital. It was the birthplace of the RMS Titanic, which famously struck an iceberg and sunk in 1912. This legacy is recalled in the renovated dockyards' Titanic Quarter, which includes the Titanic Belfast, an aluminium-clad museum reminiscent of a ship's hull, as well as shipbuilder Harland & Wolff's Drawing Offices and the Titanic Slipways, which now host open-air concerts.
Area 44.4 sq mi (115 km2)

Metropolitan area: 671,559
City in Northern Ireland
Lisburn is a city in Northern Ireland. It is 8 mi southwest of Belfast city centre, on the River Lagan, which forms the boundary between County Antrim and County Down. Lisburn is part of the Belfast Metropolitan Area.

Seward & Kissel's Family Office Group brings together the expertise of our Investment Management, Trusts and Estates, Taxation, Business Transactions, Litigation and Employment groups to assist our clients on a wide variety of legal matters, including structuring, organization and regulatory compliance, trusts and estates planning, taxation, business transactions and investments, employment issues and other legal matters.
Structuring, Organization and Regulatory Compliance
Seward & Kissel advises families regarding the creation, structuring and operation of family offices. We work closely with the family to determine the correct structure for their needs from a variety of alternatives, including forming a single family office, forming a private trust company, joining a multi-family office or hiring an institution to provide family office services.
We also assist clients with ensuring that they are complying with all applicable rules and regulations. This includes structuring the family office to fit within the "family office" exemption from registration as an investment adviser as well as the creation of internal policies and procedures that are tailored to the needs and resources of each client.
For those families who manage their investments through partnerships or limited liability companies, we provide advice on complying with the Securities Act of 1933, the Exchange Act of 1934, the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the Commodity Exchange Act.
Trusts and Estates Planning
Whether to preserve and build wealth for future generations, to achieve philanthropic ends, or to meet other objectives, we guide our family office clients on the creation and structuring of family offices with an eye towards efficient wealth transfer and harmonious family interactions. We advise clients on the use of domestic and foreign trusts and business structures for control, transfer tax and income tax optimization, asset protection, and charitable giving, as well as with respect to the selection and procurement of insurance, the creation of charitable foundations, and the exigencies for changes of residence, domicile and citizenship. We also handle litigated matters that arise in the trusts and estates context, such as construction questions, contested accountings, and legal capacity and undue influence allegations.
Business Transactions and Investments
We are recognized nationally and internationally for our work with private investment funds, including U.S. and offshore hedge funds, and we are able to use this expertise to assist our clients in reviewing, negotiating and structuring investments in hedge funds, private equity funds and real estate funds.
We routinely counsel family offices in connection with their direct business transactions, including company and asset sales, acquisitions, financings, investments in portfolio companies, advice in connection with portfolio company IPOs and related stock sales, and the negotiation of credit facilities secured by artwork, aircraft, private fund interests and other alternative assets.
Given our private funds expertise, we also regularly provide assistance to family offices in investment management transactions, including "seed" and "accelerator" investments, as well as minority and majority stakes in investment manager entities. When appropriate, we have structured these investments as part of a joint venture with other family offices.
Employment Issues
We assist family office clients with all of their employment, executive compensation and employee benefit needs, including drafting employment agreements, restrictive covenant agreements, deferred compensation arrangements, and equity incentive agreements for senior management and their portfolio companies, as well as separation agreements and equity ownership buy-outs. We also provide clients with updates on developments in the employment law landscape, draft employment manuals and other employment policy materials, counsel clients on a variety of issues including hiring and termination decisions and the handling of disability claims and accommodation requests, and provide in-person office trainings on various topics such as sexual harassment.

Certainly there are many ways of skinning the cat! The above model resembles the GDI way of things in MSWindows. The implication though is that the print-driver/RIP needs to have access to details about the device, including it's colorspace. When this is all on the same box, it's not too hard. If the spooling is over a net, then you need a suitable protocol if the device information is centralized, or you need to duplicate device information on each client box. For many printers it is desirable to feed back real time state information (ie. what trays have paper, and what size is the paper ?). [Diverging somewhat to explain the benefits of feedback from the printer:] A more advanced concept would support "logical" paper supply. A "logical" paper is an operator defined combination of a physical paper size and other attributes, e.g. weight, tint, letterhead, finish etc. The printer operator would configure the available logical papers, and the user can then select amongst them. If the printer isn't actually loaded with that paper, the job would be held until the operator reconfigures the printer. A color profile would be associated with each logical paper. Coming back to color profiles, in practice (particularly with inkjet printers), it's not reasonable to insist on a hard coded one to one relationship between mode combination (ie. paper type, resolution, print modes etc.) and profiles. There is too much of a combinatorial explosion. For example, a typical inkjet may have a dozen paper stocks from the manufacturer, plus countless others from 3rd party suppliers. There are very often several resolutions and print modes (ie. dot sizes, interleave modes) available. Multiply all this together and you start needing several hundred different profiles to cover every combination. [If any of you have looked at a lot of the profiles provided with some of the inkjets, you might notice that the profile coverage is patchy, and many of the profiles are duplicates.] The best idea I came up with to tackle this issue was to use the power of a calibration system (which partly compensates for many of the major variables caused by resolution, dot size and interleave modes), with a "fuzzy" profile matching scheme. Each profile is labelled with the print parameters it was created for (private ICC tags), and this is used in a weighted difference sum to compute a match factor with the desired operating mode. The profile with the best match is chosen as a default. This would mean that a "profile not available" type error is avoided, hidden duplication of profiles is unnecessary, and the user gets the best possible profile available under the circumstances. Of course they can be warned about an imperfect match, so that they have the option (given tools) of creating a profile for a specific paper+print mode. Graeme Gill.

By Jacki McLenaghan
I'll tell you a little story….
Years ago I came to the conclusion that I needed to strengthen the foundations within my company and the first thing that I decided to do was to get a new computer. The purchase left me very excited. I thought to myself "Hmmmmm, there must be so many things about this new toy that I don't know that I don't know." One thing that I did know for sure was that there was a man who had been coming to many of my events who was a self proclaimed "Apple Expert."
Great! This was a perfect time to give him a call.
I hired him for a session in which the majority of the time was spent on telling me that I required a new website. Yes I paid $60 per hour to listen to a sales pitch. The echoing voice in my head repeated the same old mantra, "Be nice Jacki, don't rock the boat." I listened, I paid and yes, I started the process of getting a whole new website.
This was my first red flag, yet I chose to ignore it.
Before the exchange of money, my new "web designer" told me that all of my needs were not only possible but also easy! This was good news indeed.
But once the project began the tone changed.
Before I had received any work I was repeatedly told about a list of rules that I was forbade in breaking. I'm fine with setting expectations but the way in which they were delivered left me feeling as guilty as a criminal yet I had not committed a single crime.
Red Flag!
To further my early onset frustration, what I had asked for at the beginning was, and I quote "Not an option." On and on my needs were not addressed and his rules were being thrust upon me. The underlying message that he conveyed was "What is in it for me!" And my pattern of behavior was "don't cause trouble." His earlier claims now seemed more like a rooster showing its colorful feathers.
As the project progressed more red flags emerged but unfortunately I did not listen. I waited an exorbitantly long period time for this website and I paid $6000 in the meantime. Sadly, when all was said and done, the site was a disaster and completely unusable. It couldn't do what I had wanted and I was not delivered what was promised.
Finally, I voiced my concerned and I threw away the need to be "nice." I wrote an honest letter describing the fact that this was not a working or functional web design. As I had anticipated, I received a negative response describing how "I didn't have a very good work philosophy." Funny, I paid the $6000 for nothing and yet I am the problem…hmmmm.
Note to self: Be wary of those who cannot take responsibility and only blame others.
Anyway, after I had written the letter I consciously decided to let it go. I was not going to fight and instead I was going to undertake the enormous task of creating the website that I always wanted and one that I could freely share my input. I was going to do it the right way this time.
Back to square one, but this time I had come to realize that this was far more than a case of poor business practices. This had way more to do with how my inner world was affecting the outer. I wanted to take responsibility for my part in this story. I wanted to break out of old roles and default patterns that were no longer serving me.
The only way to break free is to become aware. Watch yourself diligently for old patterns of behavior and experiment with new ones. The marks of my past experiences led me to realize that the need to please people and to have them like me destructive. By shifting this internally, I knew I would stop attracting the people who want to take advantage.
The sad truth is that I didn't get taken advantage of at all. I had been a willing participant in this fiasco by ignoring my own red flags and choosing to be passive vs. expressing my needs.
So many people run their businesses out of fear of loss as opposed to joy, passion and the shear act of creation. I refuse to remain as one of them.
From this seemingly negative experience I have learned 3 very positive things.
1. You have a voice and you deserve to be heard
2. Listen to red flags and act accordingly when you hear them
3. Associate with positive, inspiring and uplifting people
You are worthy and YOU deserve success so listen to those red flags!

So yesterday I wandered in my garden a little bit and appreciated some pretty details. Things are shutting down as the the calendar moves toward fall, but the garden still has a lot to offer if you can take joy in the little things. Join me? :)
Asters...fall garden trademark.
The yellow pear tomato just keeps bearing...I could probably have filled a five-gallon bucket with them all.
ORANGE. So obnoxious. But I love it.
Pincushion Flower (Scabiosa)
Lavender...never can get enough of it...
Pink morning glory, new to my garden this year
And the ubiquitous massive blue morning glories. Pretty sure these are a necessity to life.
Lastly, my favorite...hydrangeas. Especially in late-summer when they turn different colors.

Indie Week :: DLV
Last week, I had the honour of taking in the Indie Week semi-finals at Tota Lounge in Toronto. The showcase featured Toronto-based electrorockers DLV, who would go on to win the night, and hip hop acts Zolo, Philly Moves, and Goliath Paw.
DLV frontwoman and lead vocalist started the band's set from behind the crowd, and frequently jumped into and out of it throughout the show. Their energy was undeniable and they certainly got the audience excited.
Musically, DLV manages to seamlessly blend all kinds of influences into their main electro-rock sound. The lead vocals are strong and the backing vocals add to them in the most perfect way. The group threw a crazy guitar solo into their set, though I would have loved to hear more.
Finally, DLV's stand-apart was their DJ, who acted in lieu of a drummer. In effect, he served as the backbone to the band, providing the beats and musical details that prevented the group from being just another rock act.

Beer-braised Potatoes with Cheddar and Horseradish
- Ready in: 10 minutes prep; 20 minutes on stove
- Serves: 4
- Complexity: easy
- Origin: Farmers' Kitchen—Tater Days
Over the course of a year I have many favorite days, but one of them is when we dig the potatoes in the fall. We mow the tops in late August, signaling to the plants that the time for growth is over. This recipe is adapted from a recipe by Mark Bittman in How to Cook Everything (Wiley, 2008)
- 2 pounds potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 2 cups of Vermont beer, any kind
- 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese (or try other cheeses)
- 1 tablespoon non-GMO corn starch
- 1 tablespoon horseradish (or more, to taste)
- handful of parsley
Peel the potatoes and cut them into medium-size chunks. Put the olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Cook the potatoes until they begin to turn golden; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the onion and cook for a few minutes more.
Add the beer and enough water so the potatoes are barely covered. Bring to a boil, then turn heat to medium-low. Let the mixture bubble gently for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
While the potatoes are cooking, toss the corn starch with the cup of shredded cheese. When the potatoes are almost done, stir in the cheese mixture. Add the horseradish. Stir until the cheese melts, throw in the parsley, and serve.

Q. How would I quote an interview answers in a research paper? The interview was done by me and should be in MLA format.
A great place to go for many citation and quotation questions is the Purdue OWL. On their MLA guide, it specifically breaks down examples for how to go about citing and using varying resources. Here's their page that includes information regarding personal interviews: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/09/
And here's what they say:
"Personal interviews refer to those interviews that you conduct yourself. List the interview by the name of the interviewee. Include the descriptor Personal interview and the date of the interview.
Smith, Jane. Personal interview. 19 May 2014."
This refers to the citation on the Works Cited page. For quoting in-text, you would then follow the standard MLA way of quoting and citing in-text, which means unless you mention the interviewee's name in the sentence you would put their last name in parenthesis at the end of the sentence. What you put in parenthesis in-text in MLA should correspond to the first part of your citation on the works cited page. In the previous example your in text citation would be (Smith) unless you referred to the interviewee by name in the sentence.

Kinder Morgan Energy Partners recently increased its quarterly cash distribution per common to $1.32, which is a 7% increase from the year prior. The CEO, Richard Kinder, noted exceptional growth opportunities across all businesses, noting the infrastructure needs from oil shale plays in the U.S. and Canada. His comments seem to confirm the underlying macro trend for stronger North American energy production.
Those looking to accumulate shares and build their interest in the energy transport and storage sector may be interested in fact that Kinder Morgan Management pays a quarterly stock dividend. One should always seek council of a tax advisor, but under Under IRC §305(a), stock dividends of Kinder Morgan Managementare not taxable upon receipt to the stockholder. However, the stock dividend does affect the basis of each individual unit held by the stockholder. The dividend may provide a way to accumulate interest in the North American energy revolution. The last dividend paid in May amounted to .014770 per unit.

Basel fought back to secure a 1-1 draw in their Champions League Group A opener against Ludogorets at St Jakob-Park.
Jonathan Cafu fired the Bulgarians ahead on the stroke of half-time.
However, Basel, who had won eight games from eight so far this season and are already nine points clear of nearest rivals Young Boys in the Swiss top flight, produced a strong second-half showing and were rewarded with 10 minutes left when Renato Steffen hooked the ball in at the far post.
With these two sides expected to contest third place behind experienced European campaigners Paris St Germain and Arsenal, neither could really afford to lose early ground with defeat in the opening group games.
The plans of Basel coach Urs Fischer, though, were forced to change when striker Marc Janko was forced off on 39 minutes because of injury. He was replaced by Seydou Doumbia, the Ivory Coast forward on loan from Roma.
Ludogorets, currently fourth in the Bulgarian top flight, silenced the home support when they took the lead on the stroke of half-time.
Marcelinho played a ball up field down the right, which Cafu collected before turning defender Marek Suchy to break clear into the penalty area.
The Brazilian then coolly slotted a low shot into the bottom left corner past goalkeeper Tomas Vaclik.
Basel, though, regrouped at the interval and were soon on the offensive in the second half as Doumbia went close before Suchy fired over.
Despite being vulnerable to the counter-attack, the hosts continued to push forward, surged on by the local support.
The Swiss were rewarded with an equaliser on 80 minutes.
Birkir Bjarnason got away down the right and sent over a deep cross, which Vladislav Stoyanov failed to deal with and pushed behind him towards the back of the six-yard box.
Steffen, making his Champions League debut, remained composed to hook an angled effort back towards goal, which went into the net past the defender on the line.
The St Jakob-Park faithful demanded a winner, but Ludogorets closed out the final stages, as a long-range effort from Davide Calla was saved.

I love these goals! I definitely am also spending less, spending more time meeting new people, and focusing on health and wellness. Looking forward to a great 2015!ReplyDeleteReplies
We can totally be "spend less" buddies! We can ask each other the questions "why do you need it" etc lol!Delete
These are good ones. I agree with spending less and definitely making more time to just enjoy life. Best of luck this year and hope to see you again real soon.ReplyDelete

Thanks Myrna! I hope the start to your 2015 has been wonderful :)Delete
Faith, I literally laughed out loud reading this because I have promised to buy myself a Crock Pot at Target this weekend so that I can start making myself meals and save money! My stepmom gave me the idea over Christmas; she said it is good for a beginner. And I am totally with you on the time thing - so many mornings I am rushing to get to work and feeling irritable as a result; I want to focus on getting up early and taking more time to get ready and appreciate the day.ReplyDelete
Have a great start to 2015, girl! :)

Ahh I'm so happy someone else is excited about buying/getting a Crock Pot!! If you find any good recipes definitely pass them along!Delete
Hope your new year is starting out wonderfully!

Radio Host Says The Solar Eclipse Possibly Signals Return Of Satan
A radio host has warned that the solar eclipse that fascinated much of the US on Monday is a sign of something far more sinister – the return of Satan himself (or herself, in these more gender fluid times).
Yes, the DJ – a Mr Bryan Fisher – is host of Christian radio show Focal Point and, yes, his views tying Lucifer to solar eclipses were debunked way back in the third century.
In an incredibly long Facebook rant, Fisher described the eclipse thus: "This is a metaphor, or a sign, of the work of the Prince of Darkness in obscuring the light of God's truth. Satan, and those who unwittingly serve as his accomplices by resisting the public acknowledgement of God and seeking to repress the expression of Christian faith in our land, are bringing on us a dark night of the national soul."
A quick check out Focal Point's Facebook page appears to suggest that a number of Americans agree with Fisher's views.
However, they appear a far more enlightened bunch on Twitter, with many posters pointing out that his "expertise" was outdated by several centuries.
