text: Wireless & IoT VoIP opens up opportunity for service providers Howard Solomon @HowardITWC Published: August 14th, 2007There's lots of opportunity for service providers to host or support voice over IP and call centre systems of customers, according to a Gartner survey of Canadian and American organizations.But co-author Daniel O'Connell also found that providers will have to give customers a strong dose of reality before signing contracts. The findings came in a survey of the needs and expectations of 151 IT managers in organizations of various sizes with IP-based communications systems across a number of verticals.In one of the surprising results, only 40 per cent of respondents said they'd be willing to have an outsider manage their call centres, O'Connel said, a smaller number than he expected. By comparison, 56 per cent said they'd be willing to outsource management of their IP environments. "Going into this I was thinking those numbers would be reversed, because call centres are complex," he said.He suspects organizations feel call centres are part of their core business, and are also likely to be customized operations. Therefore managers are less likely to be willing to have outsiders either host or oversee them.Still, the fact that over half of respondents were open to third party management of IP infrastructure shows they understand how complex the technology is, O'Connell said. Not surprisingly, over 90 per cent of respondents were committed to VoIP adoption, showing the popularity of the technology. O'Connel said this support crosses organizations of all sizes. But a sizable number of respondents unreasonably expect VoIP will deliver astonishing savings — upwards of 50 per cent, some believe. Other Gartner research shows that's "difficult to impossible" to achieve," said O'Connell.In fact, he said, research suggests the cost of IP-based communications compared to a TDM system is about the same, meaning VoIP should be selected for other reasons such as the different features it brings.At Telus growth in managed VoIP systems and call centres "has been robust," said Jim Johannsson, the telco's director of media relations, although he couldn't cite figures.The company has been installing and supporting IP-PBXs since November, 2005, he said, and now counts "hundreds of thousands" of users. While the idea of hosted IT systems isn't new, it hasn't been clear yet whether organizations prefer to fully outsource their VoIP systems or just support. The survey showed just over one-third (38 per cent) believe third-party hosted VoIP will be the most attractive solution for them.While that's not even half, O'Connell noted, but it does indicate that a sizeable number — mainly small and mid-sized organizations — are willing to have communications infrastructure managed off-site. The numbers also suggests the majority of enterprise-sized organizations will want to maintain control of their physical equipment, he added.As for who will provide these hosted or support services, the market is open. Survey respondents showed no preference as to whether they'd buy offerings from vendors, manufacturers or system integrators. "There's a lot of opportunity," O'Connell concluded, "and these formerly different players in the TDM space w Wireless & IoT carriers, providers, service providers, Technology

The 2015 National Teacher of the Year from Amarillo is spending two weeks in China's Shandong Province on an education junket that began Wednesday and runs through March 27.
"I've been fascinated by China ever since I was a little girl," she said. "The fact that I am going over there at all amazes me, much less in the capacity of official representative of U.S. education , and informally, of the United States."
Chinese education officials asked Peeples to get them a copy of her interview with Panhandle PBS CEO Ellen Robertson Green, which originally aired in November as an episode of our local public affairs show, Live Here.
That Live Here episode will air again at 7 p.m. Thursday, as a matter of fact.
Peeples said her Chinese hosts want the Live Here interview as a means of introducing her to her audiences there. They've mentioned some sort of 1,000-foot screen – "whatever that means," Peeples said – that will be used to show it in one venue.
One of Peeples' intinerary coordinators said a simultaneous interpretation translation service will be used that is one to two seconds behind the audio, so that audience members can listen to it via headsets.
The Palo Duro High School teacher is to deliver speeches that, among other things, discuss improving student confidence and hope – something Peeples has been doing, and doing well, on a large-scale basis since she was named teacher of the year in April 2015.
But it's something she did long before that, in her classrooms within the Amarillo Independent School District.
During her Live Here interview airing Thursday, Peeples discusses the power of teachers to influence lives, and gives her take on poverty and educational challenges.
She also relates experiences she had while interacting with educators on a trip to Lebanon, Israel and the West Bank.
Peeples has traveled thousands of miles in her national role and will add to the odometer on this trip. She's ready to interact with the Chinese people, she said.
"Colleagues of mine who have been to China tell me that the Chinese treat American visitors as something like celebrities. They assure me that I will be asked by passersby to be in photos as it is considered hip to have a Caucasian in photos to text their friends using the popular service QQ, and to post on RenRen, their version of Facebook.
"My friend (and 2014 National Teacher of the Year) Sean McComb advised me that I will need to massage my face muscles from all the pictures I will be asked to be in. Considering that I hate having my picture taken, this should prove to be what therapists call a 'growth experience' for me."
Look for Peeples to continue sharing her thoughts with the Panhandle PBS community soon as we bring her aboard as a blogger. We'll have more details about that for you in the coming weeks.

My family enjoyed this dessert, but as a previous reviewer mentioned, it did not set up for perfectly cut pieces. I also doubled the icing. Also, we used peppermint flavoring, and I would recommend halving the amount of peppermint extract to 1/4 tsp. The peppermint was a little strong, but overall the dessert is yummy.
Jan 5, 2014
I made this for Christmas at the request of my 11 year old who loves chocolate and mint. I loved the flavor-it reminded me of the icebox cakes my mom used to make but much easier to prepare. I did have one problem in that it was fairly puddingish in that it didn't cut like the picture, I almost had to spoon it out like pudding. Not sure what went wrong but it won't keep me from making it again. Also since I always have several desserts for the holidays, if I make it again for a holiday, I plan on trying to see what happens with a smaller dish (9x9?) and for each of the graham cracker layers making it a double thickness. I'll probably 1/2 the rest of the ingrediants. And with the smaller dish, I hopefully won't have to double the frosting layer.
Apr 3, 2010
This is one of my favorite dessert recipes. I have made it on a number of family occasions and it always gets rave reviews. People cannot believe when I tell them what the ingredients are and just how easy it is to make. But I double the chocolate frosting or it doesn't quite cover the top.

Double the amount of chocolate frosting.

It's just past dinnertime. How many of you are now logging your dinner into a calorie counting app and analyzing your calories in vs. calories out? Maybe you don't hit "Complete Entry" yet because you'll do some cardio after your dinner settles, and maybe that'll buy you some dessert later. You'll log all of that, too.
Recently, I decided to look back through old logs to analyze my old eating habits and patterns. A few years ago, I was working at a stressful, nearly commission-only job. I was running to relieve the stress, and I was pretty skinny (for me). I wouldn't say I was healthy by any means. Here is what one Friday's log looked like:
Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Minis, 3 count
Frozen Yogurt - Pomegranate, 1/2 cup
Frozen Yogurt - Pineapple, 1/2 cup
Fruit - Pineapple, Strawberries, Mangoes
Chicken & Cheese Sliders (Self Magazine Recipe)
Vodka - 6 fl. oz.
Fast food, a bowl of sugar disguised as a healthy dessert that I decided was lunch...

Their is a large on-going debate about property being on the rise and a slow economic growth making the move back to Spain a positive and welcoming experience, but of course, there is the dark past where realtors and land owners have caused quite the mess for new buyers and old trustees.
Reading a forum post or a long detailed blog, or even a newspaper article cannot easily convince you to believe in Spain again. The best way to find out for yourself is to talk directly to the people living there. On a residential mobile home park, especially one such as La Posada, talking to the ex-pats living there is the only way to give yourself peace of mind (if moving to Spain is something you have considered but felt worried after the barrage of historical darkness property is shrouded in throughout Spain)
Word of mouth is a powerful way to either make or break something. Take your time and find out as much as you can to make an informed decision.
Thanks for reading.

The stimulus bill working its way through Congress is not just a package of spending increases and tax cuts intended to jolt the nation out of recession. For Democrats, it is also a tool for rewriting the social contract with the poor, the uninsured and the unemployed, in ways they have long yearned to do.
With little notice and no public hearings, House Democrats would create a temporary new entitlement allowing workers getting unemployment checks to qualify for Medicaid, the health program for low-income people. Spouses and children could also receive benefits, no matter how much money the family had.
In addition, the stimulus package would offer a hefty subsidy to help laid-off workers retain the same health plans they had from their former employers.
Altogether, the economic recovery bill would speed $127 billion over the next two and a half years to individuals and states for health care alone, a fact that has Republicans fuming that the stimulus package is a back door to universal health coverage.

Invictus Racing League is saddened to report on the tragic news after the passing of Anthoine Hubert this evening.
On lap two of the FIA F2 round nine Feature race, Arden driver Anthoine Hubert was involved in a violent multi-car incident after the Raidillon corner at Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium which also involved the Sauber Junior Team by Charouz of Juan-Manuel Correa, amongst others.
After an agonising wait, the worst news was released by the FIA that unfortunately Anthoine had succumbed to his injuries and passed away the age of 22 and only three weeks before his 23rd birthday. Juan-Manuel Correa was airlifted to Liege Hospital where he was reported to be in a serious but stable condition.
Anthoine enjoyed a successful karting career where he often raced the likes of Dorian Boccolachi and Charles Leclerc, and in 2013 moved up to the French F4 Championship where he won the series at the first attempt. In the following years he took victories in the Formula Renault Championship alongside future F2 rivals Jack Aitken, Louis Deletraz and Nikita Mazepin. However it was when moving into GP3 in 2017 he started to show his true potential, and after a first season that saw him finish fourth in the Championship, in 2018 he won the last ever GP3 Championship as part of the French team ART, whilst being signed to the Renault Sport Academy, and in turn managed to get a drive for Arden in Formula 2 for 2019.
This season he took hugely popular victories at the Monaco Grand Prix and French Grand Prix Sprint races and was currently eighth in the driver standings with 77 points, and had been tipped to represent Renault in the future on the Formula One grid.
It has been a shocking and sad day for everyone involved in the Motorsport world, and we here at Invictus Racing League offer our sincerest condolences and positive thoughts to the family, friends, colleagues and sponsors of Anthoine Hubert.
A minutes silence will be held at the commencement of the next round of races in his memory.
Thank you for sharing your passion with us all Anthoine, may you rest well.

H&M will be changing its measurements and the fit of a size 12 will now be a size 10. Many customers stated that sizes were smaller than other high street shops.
A spokesperson said:
'We are taking the steps to change our womenswear measurements to be in line with the UK sizing.'
A number of women have complained about the sizes. One Laura Finnemore is one such woman, who was shocked that six separate H&M items in her size were 'far too small to even try and get on'.
Ruby, 21, from Crawcrook, stated that she avoided the store completely because the clothes 'never fit people with bigger body proportions'. It's also a bit rich that the store aligns itself with phrases like #GRLPOWER and SISTERHOOD, while simultaneously making women feel awful because they don't fit in their clothes.
Despite attempts to create a standardised sizing system for the UK, no government has ever made it obligatory, says one Dr Vikki Haffenden from the University of Brighton.
It's a little embarrassing in what will be marked as one of the most progressive years for women, with the #MeToo movement and Time's Up, women who don't fit the ridiculous standards that clothes shops like H&M push onto women.
Hopefully, a size refit is on the horizon. Because it's really not a good look.

The project involves the acquisition of three brand new Medium Lift Fixed Wing Aircraft mishandling by the DND Bids and Awards Committee (BAC) in the recent failed bidding and subsequent rebidding (photo : Defense Update)
A bidder is asking the Department of National Defense and the Government Procurement Policy Board to look into the failed bidding of November 11, 2013 and re-bidding of the P5.3 billion contract to buy new aircraft for the Philippine Air Force.
In a complaint-letter, Alenia Aermachii said it was not called by the bidding and awards committee to attend the pre-bidding conference last Dec. 2.
The firm said the supplemental bid dated December 6 for a December 16 bidding was not posted on the Philippine Government Procurement System nor in the official website of the DND, as required by Bidding Rules and Procedures.
"Moreover, no communication about said issuance has been sent to Alenia," the company said in a statement. "Potentially interested bidders have been denied the right to submit a comprehensive proposal due to the lack of information on the December 2 pre-bid conference and the supplemental bid bulletin for a December 16 bidding."

Style your adaptive form
Learn to create a custom theme, style individual components, and use web fonts in a theme
This tutorial is a step in the Create Your First Adaptive Form series. It is recommended to follow the series in chronological sequence to understand, perform, and demonstrate the complete tutorial use case.
About the tutorial
You can use themes to provide a unique appearance and style to an adaptive form. You can apply out of the box themes provided with adaptive forms editor or create custom themes of your own. AEM Forms provide a theme editor to create custom themes. A single theme can provide the different appearance to the same adaptive form opened on mobile, tablet, or desktop. Any prior knowledge of CSS or LESS is not required to use theme editor but it is desired.
By the end of the tutorial, you will learn to:
- Apply an out of the box theme to an adaptive form
- Create a theme for adaptive form using the theme editor
- Style individual components
- Bonus Section: Use web fonts in a custom theme
The form will look similar to the following after you complete the tutorial:
Step 1: Apply a theme to your adaptive form
Adaptive forms editor provides multiple out-of-the-box themes. If you plan not to use a custom style for your adaptive form, you can also publish your adaptive forms with an out-of-the-box theme. Themes are independent of adaptive forms. You can apply the same theme to multiple adaptive forms. To apply a theme to an adaptive form:
- Open the adaptive form for editing.
- Open properties of Adaptive Form container . In the properties browser, navigate to Basic > Adaptive Form Theme . The Adaptive Form Theme field lists all the out-of-the-box and custom themes. By default, the Canvas theme is applied.
- Select a theme from the Adaptive Form Theme field. For example, Survey theme . Tap to apply the selected theme.
Figure: Adaptive form with the default theme
Figure: Adaptive form with the Survey theme
Step 2: Update your adaptive form
The design displayed above requires changes in placeholder text and logo of your existing adaptive form. Perform the following steps to make the required changes:
- Change the existing logo and text of the header. To remove the logo:
- Open the form in form editor.
- Tap logo image in the header component and tap properties. In the image property, tap X to remove the existing logo image.
- Tap upload, select the logo.png, and tap to save the changes. The image was downloaded in the Before you start section.
- Tap header text, We.Retail , and tap edit . Change header text to we retail . Apply bold formatting only to we in we retail .
- Remove title and add placeholder text:
- Tap the Customer ID field and tap properties.
- Copy the content of the Title field to the Placeholder Text field.
- Delete the content of the Title field and tap .
- Repeat the previous three steps for all the text boxes, numeric box, and email field in the form.
Step 3: Create a custom theme for your adaptive form
You can use theme editor to create custom themes. The theme editor is an all-powerful WYSIWYG editor. It is a visual method to apply CSS to various components of an adaptive form. It provides finer controls to style components and panels of an adaptive form.
A theme is a separate entity like adaptive forms. It contains styles (CSS) for the components and panels of an adaptive form. Styles include CSS properties such as background colors, state colors, transparency, alignment, and size. When you apply a theme, the specified style is applied to the corresponding components of an adaptive form.
In this tutorial, you will style header and footer, text and numeric components, attachment component, and buttons. Let's start with creating a theme:
Create a theme
- Log in to the AEM author instance and navigate to Adobe Experience Manager > Forms > Themes . The default URL is http://localhost:4502/aem/forms.html/content/dam/formsanddocuments-themes .
- Tap Create and select Theme . The Create Theme page with the fields required to create a theme appears. The Title and Name fields are mandatory:
- Title: Specify a title of the theme. For example, Global Theme. The title helps you identify the theme from the list of themes.
- Name: Specify the name of the theme. For example, Global-Theme. A node with the specified name is created in the repository. As you start typing a title, value for the name field is automatically generated. You can change the suggested value. The name field can include only alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores. All the invalid inputs are replaced with a hyphen.
- Tap Create . A theme is created and a dialog to open the form for editing appears. Tap Open to open the newly created theme in a new tab. The theme opens in theme editor. For styling, the theme editor uses an out-of-the-box adaptive form shipped with AEM Forms.For information about using theme editor UI, see About the theme editor .
- Tap Theme Options > Configure . In the Preview Form field, select the shipping-address-add-update-form adaptive form, tap , tap Save . Now, the theme editor is configured to use your own adaptive form instead of the default adaptive form. Tap Cancel to return to the theme editor.Figure: Theme editor with the shipping-address-add-update-form adaptive formFigure: Adaptive form with the default form
Style the data capture component and apply a background to the adaptive form

We continue from Part 1.
History is taught as a sequence of cause-and-effect. This is a consequence of a belief in a causal universe, except where religious beliefs supervene. Recently, though, physicists have observed processes where the future appears to affect the past. Doubters may question whether this has any practical effect on our lives. It remains to be determined. But for the predictor, it offers an immediate suggestion. It may be possible to enhance a prediction by including the possibility of a future event to "pull" current events toward that eventuality.
The conventional cause-and-effect reasoning of the historian does not permit a future "State of Eastern Syria-Western Iraq" to be incorporated into the reasoning process. But with a systematic method of including this possibility, the locomotives of the predictor's train of reasoning can pull as well as push. The imaginary state is now no more than the idea of a safe zone.
If General McMaster is to have any latitude in a plan to "defeat ISIS", a "Syria Safe Zone" must be the core of it. Besides it, there are no strokes more significant than details of tactical deployment, and how close American soldiers get to the meat grinder. It is possible that a limited U.S. front line deployment could accomplish a specific task. Since I do not want to help the enemy, I will not describe it.
Western Mosul is a meatgrinder; a place where the advantages of high tech weapons diminish against the defender. Anyone who has ever played a war game knows that between two qualitatively symmetric forces, the attacker requires a 3:1 numerical advantage over the defender. ISIS and the coalition are not symmetrical forces, and the rule is crude. But it cannot be ignored.
Mosul will soon be done with. Raqqa will follow. The prevalent thought is that these two objectives will mark some kind of an end for ISIS. As a caution, consider this scenario: With Iran's backing, the Shiites move in on Sunni territory. The Gulf states, Turkey, or both, arm the Sunnis. Volunteers from the Caucasus appear and, after a short period of cooperation, hijack the weapons and raise a black banner. Voila, ISIS again.
A safe zone cannot be just a humanitarian effort. ISIS seeks the opportunity of political vacuum. A haven must include some kind of politics that repel ISIS. In Vietnam, which McMaster has studied extensively, the corresponding structure was based on the hamlet. Because the Syria desert is so inhospitable, a safe zone cannot be envisioned as dots of tiny hamlets on a wasteland. It is a huge enterprise.
Western Syria is populated because it has water; not enough of it, but enough to fight over. Eastern Syria and western Iraq are inhospitable deserts. In the U.S., people live in constant company to infrastructure so invisibly efficient, we forget the necessity. In the east, in colonial times, the abundance of rainfall and fertile ground made it possible for an entire country to exist without it. West of the Rockies, in the area of the Great American Desert east of LA, this was never possible. Human existence, even for brief periods, is not possible without it.
Palm Springs is in the middle of that desert. Suppose we take a walk three miles out of town, fence off a square mile, and give it to a bunch of refugees. Without outside infrastructure, they would die, even though, almost within earshot, golfers tee off in lushly irrigated scenery.
The Syria-Iraq desert is bisected by the Euphrates river, which irrigates land on a belt 4 miles wide on the average. People already live there. But apart from tent cities in the desert, supplied perpetually by relief trucks with bottled water, it is the only prospect for survival.
This has happened before in Syria. According to some Arabists, the ancestors of the Bedouins of the Arabian Peninsula were originally Syrian farmers. By population pressure, they were progressively dispossessed, driven towards lands of lesser fertility, until they reached the voids of desert sands. So we must ask the question: Would a safe zone lead to creation of a new "world's poorest nation", a kind of Bangladesh of the desert? Might Assad's tyranny be preferable? To help your thoughts along, imagine yourself in a tent outside of Palm Springs, with some bottles of water, some "food", and absolutely no prospects.
The annual flow of the Euphrates averages about 600 cubic meters/second, comparable to the Colorado. But it is poorly used. Because the river slopes only slightly over much of it's course, about half is lost to evaporation. To manage the river with the scientific precision of the Colorado would require the cooperation of three countries: Turkey, Syria, and Iraq, and at least four ethnic groups. Today, they are all prisoners of circumstance and prejudice.

Steam Punk 2
I am on a Steam Punk kick -- actually, my daughter is. She has been wanting me to use the two images (last week's and this week's) for several months now, so I appeased her. However, let me go ahead and show you this week's sketch and this week's prize before I get into a discussion of my card.
and our prize are these two cute little 2 x 2" stamps and a shimmer pen.
Now to my card. This sketch was a perfect one for the Steam Punk image. It was clean and simple which wonderfully off-set the details of the little girl and her costume. I have used a white card as my base and a green dotty paper for my background. The image is matted with a solid green.
I adhered two green clock faces with foam dots to lift them off the background, and I finished off my card with a silver colored laser cut word, "imagine."
The image is a My Bestie by Sherri Baldy.
I'm sure you will have fun with this week's sketch. Hope you will give it a try.

John E. Scanlon (right), CITES Secretary-General, presents Certificate of Commendation to Yin Hong, Vice Aministrator of State Forestry Administration in China. Photo: CITESThe head of the United Nations-backed convention on endangered species today hailed the efforts of a Chinese organization that carried out two nationwide operations this year to successfully combat wildlife crime.
The National Inter-Agency CITES Enforcement Collaboration Group (NICECG) of China was awarded a Certificate of Commendation by the Secretary-General of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), John E. Scanlon.
Over 100,000 enforcement officers were mobilized in the offensive against wildlife crime carried out by the group, which was set up in December 2011 to facilitate the collection and exchange of intelligence, enhance capacity building, and coordinate joint enforcement activities, according to a news release issued by CITES.
During the Forest Police Operation, more than 700 cases of illegal wildlife trade were uncovered; 7,155 illegal wildlife stalls and shops as well as 628 illegal online wildlife shops were shut down; 520 websites believed to offer for sale illegal wildlife were closely monitored; and 13 wildlife-related criminal networks were dismantled, among other achievements.
Meanwhile, the Customs Authorities Operation led to the arrest of 13 suspects and the seizure of large quantities of ivory, red sandal wood, yew timber and antelope horns.
?The sheer scale, extent of coordination, and level of success of these intelligence-driven operations exemplify the coordinated enforcement effort that is required at the national and sub-national levels to combat wildlife crime successfully,? said Mr. Scanlon, who presented the Certificate of Commendation at a CITES meeting in the Chinese city of Guangzhou.
CITES, which is administered by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP), noted that the Chinese organization serves as ?a model at the provincial level,? with five CITES enforcement inter-agency groups being set up.

What: Snowslam
When: Saturday, Feb. 7, 9 p.m.
Where: Merlin's
Admission: $5 before 9:30 p.m., $15 after
Craving a fix of punk rock this weekend? Looks like you're in luck - Merlin's is playing host to not just one band this weekend, but seven, on Saturday night.
Jamie Weatherbie is the lead singer of Slush, a long-time local punk band. Recently, the musicians have been focusing on writing new material, playing only a few gigs around town, including a recent show with Gob.
"It was a fun show, we had a blast," Weatherbie said. "It was a good turnout! The cool thing about the show was the fact that we've been giving away so much free music in the past few years that we had what seemed like more people singing to us than Gob, so that was a bonus."
But they've also been busy organizing Snowslam, a one-night punk show that will showcase some very talented groups from throughout the province.
"Basically, in the mid-90s, Whistler and all of Canada used to have a big punk rock tour that would go to all the ski resorts in Canada and it was called the Snowjam Tour."
The tour fizzled out in the mid- to late-90s, but the men of Slush seem determined to keep the local punk scene alive and well. So, they've decided to bring the tour back to town, in a bit of a different way, this year.
"It's strictly all B.C. bands, but its kind of the same idea as bringing all the big bands in B.C. to Whistler for one show," he explained.
They've gotten seven big-name groups on-board for this one-night show: Carpenter, Raised by Apes, Living with Lions, Cambridge, Slingshot, The Grave Life, and, of course, Slush.
"The most established B.C. bands everyone is really into right now are all playing one big show, so it's a bonus," Weatherbie said.
While the lineup offers an assortment of different types of punk for all tastes, they're all high-energy groups that promise to be great performances.
This isn't the first group show that Slush has organized in Whistler this year; in August, they hosted the Whistler Punk Festival at Merlin's. Weatherbie explained that they've decided to take on the challenge of coordinating local shows after a local promoter left town.
"So if we want to keep playing, we've got to do some shows ourselves," he explained. "It's something that I've wanted to do for a while, and when someone else is booking shows in town, it kind of makes you lazy and not want to do it."
And here's the best part: even if your wallet is feeling a bit light these days, show up before 9:30 p.m., and cover is just $5. Seven bands for $5? You can't do much better than that.
Turn Up Winter, Part III
Can you be Canadian and not be a Neil Young fan? Hell, can you enjoy music and not be a fan of north Ontario's prodigal son?
In 2005, facing a future that might not have included any future at all - a brain aneurysm threatened to make him the late, great - Neil Young took to the stage in Nashville for a couple of nights of new music and old music. The concerts, captured with a filmmaker's eye by Jonathan Demme and released in 2006 as "Neil Young: Heart of Gold," are stunning tributes to the man's music and to his power to dominate a stage and capture an audience's heart.
Presented as week three of the Turn Up Winter concert film series, "Neil Young: Heart of Gold," will screen at MY Millennium Place on Wednesday, Feb. 11 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $10 at MY Place or $8 for Club Shred members.

Portuguese vacationers in the Algarve are complaining about the amount of algae on the beaches. As it turns out, the algae - also called sea lettuces - are not only healthy, they are in fact… edible!
Algae - or sea lettuces, as some refer to them - have been showing up on the coast, filling the beaches with a green mantle - but they pose no health risk, although they've been generating some discomfort among the bathers.
These algae abound at the bottom of the Ria Formosa, feeding on nutrients from discharges of nitrate and ammonia-rich urban and agricultural tributaries. "It is normal for them to appear on the beaches of the Eastern Algarve, but this summer it was in greater quantity, due to the outcrop of the deepest waters of the ria that surface and are dragged offshore, eventually becoming deposited on the beaches when the tide rises," explains Rui Santos, researcher at the Center for Marine Sciences (CCMar) of the University of Algarve, quoted by the Expresso newspaper.
The expert explains that the number of algae on the beaches, higher than normal this year, was due to the strong north and northwest winds that cooled the waters of the Algarve coast in the first half of August 2019.
Faced with bathers' complaints, the Vila Real de Santo António City Council ordered some beaches to be cleaned, however, recalls Rui Vasconcelos de Andrade, "any cleaning being done is of short duration", as the tide keeps sending lettuces from the sea to the beach.
Ulva linnaeus have a natural distribution along the shores of all oceans and are even edible both raw (in salads or sushi) or cooked.
They should be caught in open water on coastal beaches so as to avoid pollutants or toxins as much as possible. To maintain chlorophyll, algae should be dried in the shade. There are also companies that already sell dehydrated and ready to eat algae. Sea lettuces are rich in protein, fiber, vitamins and minerals.

I have been mediating on the subject of what we are used to see as our play button.
Why is it the shape that it is?
I would propose some shape more spiral, like a rotating swastika in motion, a moving Valknut sign or maybe a triple spiral formation…
When you consider a typical "play" button from a sacred geometry point of view in relation to the human psyche, you could see that the choice of such triangle could mean an intention of sorts:
- To form an enlightened being, it should maintain in itself a metaphisic philosopher's stone. Since we always see the button as a tilted triangle floating in a circle, it signifies a spirit incapable of reaching it's higher self
- And of course,
Tilt your head to the right, and it takes the shape of the "chalice".
Tilt your head to the left, and it takes the shape of the "blade".
Tells us of a means to entrance the user in a disbalanced state of being.

Getting rid of Fear of Laughing: How It Works
Bottom line? Your subconscious mind needs to be re-trained. Consciously, you know your fear of laughing doesn't make logical sense. If it did everyone would have it.

Getting rid of those automatic feelings isn't hard – you just need the right techniques for changing your reaction to your personal set of laughter-related triggers. We're here to teach the techniques to you. Are you ready to learn and utilize these techniques?

Vanquish Fear of Laughing Today.
Where Your Fear of Laughing Comes From
In most cases, Fear Of Laughing (although not always) is triggered by an extremely negative encounter from the past. In some cases, it appears the brain has produced the fear with no instigation. The key is digging down to the source and replacing negative associations with more positive emotions. Individuals utmost at risk are:
• Those with a tendency to feel anxious and panicky
• If you are jittery, edgy, sensitive, nervous
• People suffering from adrenal insufficiency

Allowed or disorderly?
Everyone knows that in the summer, when the heat is high, your feet start to sweat or even swell, and you just want to get rid of your socks and shoes quickly. But is that allowed? Can you drive barefoot in the car?
It is important that all drivers are suitable to operate a vehicle and to drive it safely. Although it is not expressed in regulations that one cannot drive barefoot, you can be charged with a careless driving fine.
Now the question of to what extent can one drive barefoot safety arises. Objectively it can be assumed that it can be much easier to get in an accident since slipping of the pedals is much more likely and pushing the brake pedal is more difficult. Incidentally, the same applies to driving in flip flops, slippers or loose footwear. If you cause an accident barefoot, it can result in careless driving.
For your own safety, we do not recommend driving a car in bare feet. In the summer, if you prefer sandals, we recommend sandals that are closed at the boot. Then you can give your feet air and still drive comfortably and safely.

Leclerc prepared to follow team orders, but not always
Baku - Charles Leclerc hinted at his inner rebel on Thursday when he said he was prepared to accept Ferrari team orders that favoured Sebastian Vettel, but only in certain situations.
Speaking ahead of this weekend's Azerbaijan Grand Prix on one of his favourite circuits, the Baku street track, the 21-year-old Monegasque said he recognised the existence of team orders, but was wary of committing to total obedience.
"Of course, there will always be team orders in Formula One," he said. "But it depends on the situation whether I accept them. In some situations, I will…"
He left the rest of his reply unfinished, only later adding a little clarity to his enigmatic responses when he talked of the bigger responsibilities that team chief Mattia Binotti has to carry for Ferrari.
"He has to make decisions from the pit wall," he said. "And, at the end of the ride, they are faced with a lot more drama than I am in the car."
Leclerc was running third in China two weeks ago when he was asked to let Vettel pass him as Ferrari tried to catch and battle with Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas.
Vettel went by and was then unable to stop Hamilton winning ahead of Bottas as Mercedes scored their third one-two of the season.
Vettel finished third and Leclerc - who was denied victory in Bahrain by engine problems – fell to fifth behind Red Bull's Max Verstappen.
He said he knew Vettel would gain preference in 50-50 calls between them, but remained adamant that he would prove himself.
"I've got a lot of things to prove and now it's just up to me to do the best job possible in the car to prove to the team what I'm capable of…
"I need to continue doing what I'm doing, trying to improve myself and hopefully it will change soon."
Asked if he could beat Vettel in the title race, he said: "I believe there is the potential to do so, but then from that potential to actually doing it - I need to do a lot of work and put all the things together."
Earlier, five-time champion Hamilton said he recognised some of his own early frustrations in F1 in Leclerc's situation and described his own fight to prove himself.
The five-time world champion recalled his own debut season in 2007, when he partnered two-time champion Fernando Alonso at McLaren. Like Leclerc, he wanted to win from the outset.
"For sure, I think he's a bit younger than I was by a year or two, but absolutely I can see it.
"I remember wanting to get to F1 as soon as possible and then, when I got there, I wanted to win as soon as possible and I wanted to beat the champion that I was racing against.
"So, it's very, very similar. I see much of myself in Charles. He's doing a great job so far with really high expectations at a huge team like Ferrari, but he's driving so well. So, he just has to keep doing what he's doing... It will come to him."

What tense characterizes the perfect participle? Is it past, present, or future?
1 Answer
Feb 10, 2018
the perfect participle, 'having __ed', relates to something that has already been done.
Having walked down the stairs, the cat went to the garden to play.
sequence of events:
- cat walks down stairs
- cat goes to garden
the cat walks down the stairs before going into the garden.
the first action comes before the second.
this means that the first action is finished before the second one starts.
the perfect participle 'having __ed' therefore refers to the complete action, which is walking.
since the perfect participle refers to a complete action, it is characterised by the past tense.

Coogs kick off long weekend with Patriotic Show
August 30, 2019
As the annual Patriotic game draws near, the Cougars are no doubt full with anticipation to go up against the town rival Tomball Memorial Wildcats to kick off the 2019 football season. With both teams coming off of playoff appearances last year, this game is sure to be an exciting start to a three day Labor Day weekend.
Many factors are at play in this upcoming match, one being the drop in expectations for the Cougars following the loss of star Wide receiver Demond Demas for the year (ineligibility.) To pile on to the underdog status, the Wildcats have found recent success in their 6A district while the Cougars remain in 5A, therefore being viewed as having the easier competition. Additionally, as many know, there is no home field advantage as TISD stadium is home to both teams, therefore adding a "fight for your turf" feel to the game which will be played in what is always a sold out crowd.
"Patriotic Games always have an intense atmosphere, with the crazy amount of fans and stuff," said Defensive End Blake Gandy. "It adds something to the game that just makes us play harder. This is gonna be a really good game, I'm getting hyped by just thinking about it."
The Wildcats, though losing 15 players to graduation last year (including starting Quarterback Chandler Galban), are filled with returning playmakers on both sides of the ball. On offense, the Wildcats have plenty of weapons for new quarterback Colton Marwill, such as 3-star Wide Receiver and Vanderbilt commit Logan Kyle. Kyle, a 6'3 200 pound wide receiver who was named first team All-District after posting 1031 yards and 12 touchdowns in his junior year will be a good test for the Cougars secondary to start off the year.
"We've taken measures to restrict their passing game, especially against post routes which they love to run," said Cornerback Adam Terrell. "And we've prepared our linebackers to cover shallow routes which they like to run a lot too."
One key player to watch is senior Braedon Nutter. The 3 star, 6'3 287 pound Rice University Commit had a monstrous stat line his junior year, with 39 tackles, 8 tackles for loss, and four sacks as a defensive lineman. However, Nutter will only be limiting his play to the offensive line, as he is already committed to Rice as a center. However, don't expect there to be a decrease in the pass rushing presence as defensive tackle Elijah Champaigne prepares for his own big year. Champaigne, also a senior, measures in at 6'2 and 266 pounds and is also a 3 star recruit, gathering attention from big name universities such as the Colorado Buffaloes and the Tulane Green Wave.
The patriotic game is always one of the more exciting games of the year, and expect this years game to be no different. Our Cougars will enter the game with a chip on their shoulder as they hope to silence their doubters by beating out a talent filled Wildcats team to open the 2019 season.

Routine eye and vision exams are an important part of preventive health care. Many eye problems have no obvious signs or symptoms. These include serious conditions, such as glaucoma, diabetic eye disease, amblyopia in children, which may lead to blindness. During your comprehensive eye exam, your eye doctor will provide early diagnosis and treatment of any vision problems.
If you wear glasses or contact lenses, regular eye examinations are also important.
Our comprehensive eye exam services include:
- Glasses prescriptions
- Contact lens
- Treatment of eye infections, minor trauma, and inflammations
- Diagnosis and management of glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, and diabetic eye disease
- When should you get an eye exam?
Talk to your primary care provider about regular eye exams. Routine eye exams are typically recommended every one to two years for children and adults. Children should have their first eye exam before starting kindergarten. After age 60, yearly exams are advised. All patients with diabetes should have a complete eye exam at least once a year.
What is a Medical Eye Exam?
Frequency: as needed
- Billed to medical insurance
- Copay for Specialty collected at check-in
- Medical vision exam — dilated wellness checkup
- Diagnosis or treatment of any medical condition of the eye — including diabetes, cataracts, glaucoma, retinal disease, corneal disease, autoimmune disease, redness, tearing burning, floaters, flashes of light, & visual disturbances
- Can be scheduled with testing. Such as visual field, diagnostic testing or photos
- Can be scheduled as post-op (for laser treatments, etc.)
What is a Routine Eye Exam?
Frequency: Every 12 months
- Billed to the vision plan

Weaver Woman
August 24, 2012
I weave words
like a west african market woman
selling you my vision,
my mangoes, my papayas, even
my coconuts.
My finished product
can be held up to the sun,
illuminated, made to shine.
The skins of my poems
have been submerged in mud
then laid at the bottom
of the baobab tree
to dry
like mudcloth.
The blood of my poems
can be as dry as the sahara
as wet as monsoons
as cutting as a machete
in the hands of the mau mau.
I weave blood into my words:
red blood, dried blood, youngblood.
An over-saturation of blood decorates my words,
makes them pulse red.
My words hang from trees
like the bitterest kind
of strange fruit.
My words find the peruvian revolutionaries
murdered while hogtied
and then buried in criminal secrecy.
My words were inspired
by rigoberta menchu.
I roots rock reggae with my words
have them jamming
to the heartbeat rhythm
of the warmest music.
The fabric of my words is at its lightest
when it's in the dancehall
or the yard.
My words sweep over people
like the softest caribbean breezes.
My words will have you
dreaming of blue skies,
white sands and coral reefs
and while you're dreaming
I weave black people
into my words and I am done.
My finished product
can be held up to the sun
illuminated, made to shine.

...is now sitting on at least 10 eggs. She started laying them around May 25th. Bless her heart, even with my Dh doing repair work on the swimming pool, all the noise of a jack hammer, she still feels safe being here. The years before she has been on the other side of the pool. But with us working 'near her space' she has decided the this side would be best. lol She is in an enclosed fenced in area, free from praetors.
If you click on DUCKS on the 'labels' area, scroll down and look at "Dog days of summer" photo you can get an idea where she is located in our back yard. Stay tune...more to come. *smile*

angry hands
happy hands
crippled hands
dirty hands
hands that have been places
wet hands
bloody hands
hands with red nails
guilty hands
phony hands
hands missing fingers
hands that talk
hands that kill
hands that love
I have been shaken by all this.

Welcome to my blog! My name is Emily and I'm a Jersey girl who loves nothing more than seeing the world. I started this blog to talk about mostly my travel adventures and studying abroad. A little about me: I'm almost 27,I recently got married last year, and I will spend every last dollar I have on vacation. I love bad TV (think: Real Housewives, Bachelor franchise). I'm pretty much afraid of everything but the best memories I have started with a healthy dose of fear and it never holds me back. I care a lot about sustainability & the environment so I'll probably continue to annoy everyone about recycling forever. Thanks for reading!

We used to make this all the time with brats and grill the onions in the drippings of the brats. Granted we would get lower fat brats, but they were still brats.
