text: Sleep #NewMomThoughts By janinehausif September 29, 2015 No Comments Sometimes I'm so sleepy, I can feel how good the sleep is going to be even before I'm actually sleeping. That's tonight. Oooohhhhh it's going to be delicious, this sleep. I didn't get a nap all day, but I was able to make a smoothie. A small, unrelated win that I'm claiming. Share:

Spend some quality time in a holiday home in Bosore
Holiday cottages in Bosore, Funen, Denmark!
Bøsøre is situated on the east coast of Funen in quiet, scenic and recreational surroundings.
Guest assessments from Bosore
7 guests have granted an average assessment of 3,71 out of 5 possible stars.
The cosy holiday house area between Nyborg and Svendborg is ideal for families, anglers, nature lovers and everyone else, who wish to relax in peaceful and natural surroundings. Bøsøre has a lovely bathing beach and is surrounded by the characteristic, idyllic Funen nature. It is possible to buy groceries in the area and in the nearby town Hesselager.
The beach by Bøsøre is a good beach with coarse sand. The water is shallow and calm, and therefore the beach is very suitable for children. On a clear day you can catch a glimpse of The Great Belt Bridge from the beach.
Bøsøre is surrounded by water, forest and lovely unspoiled nature. The forest 'Kajbjerg Skov' is situated right by the coast of eastern Funen and contains more forest lakes and marked walking routes. A couple of km north of Bøsøre you will find the forest 'Tårup Lundeskov'. The very rare fire-bellied toad lives around the lake 'Klokkesøen' by the beach of Tårup, and on a hot day in the early summer you will be able to hear its croaking. A number of walking and bicycle routes are available in the scenic landscape behind the town and along the shore.
You are allowed to make use of the tropical water world with 3 pools, a jacuzzi and a sauna by the caravan park 'Bøsøre Camping'. Here you can also rent bicycles and riding horses. Within a radius of 25 km you will find no less than 2 golf courses: The course by 'Nyborg Golfklub', which is scenically situated right down to the inlet 'Nyborg Fjord', as well as the course by 'Svendborg Golfklub', from which you have a view of the south Funen archipelago. For anglers, the area is full of opportunities. It is possible to fish along the shore around Bøsøre. Deep-sea fishing is arranged with the ship 'M/S Habeleto' from Nyborg, Svendborg or Lohals. It is also possible to go fishing onboard a fishing vessel or on a sail on the Great Belt from Lundeborg (14 km). In the swimming baths 'Svendborg Svømmeland' you will find: water slide, water canon, a canal with current, jacuzzies, hot water pools, children's pools, sauna and solariums.
Worth a visit
The church of Hesselager is quite remarkable because of its semicircular house ends. The same ornamentation can be seen on the manor house 'Hesselagergård' (5 km). 'Damestenen' (the lady stone) between Vormark and Hesselager is a 1,000 tonnes heavy gneiss stone, which was brought here during the last ice age (4 km). The bird and nature park 'Sydfyns Fugle- & Naturpark' is situated in Vejstrup. The scenic park with its 30,000 m2 of flowers, animals and water environments is a nature experience for the whole family (14 km). Handicraft shops, galleries and workshops can be visited more places in the area.
Excursion spots
Nyborg is a cosy town with old and gently restored houses, banks, which invites walks, and a lot of culture (19 km). Visit Svendborg with the preserved old town centre, the s narrow and winding roads, the squares and the backyard environments. The town is influenced by its history, which goes all the way back to the early Middle Ages (23 km). The beautiful castle 'Egeskov Slot' by Kværndrup is characterized as one of the best preserved Renaissance island forts in Europe (29 km). In the marine centre 'Fjord- & Bælt Centret' in Kerteminde you can come into contact with f.x. porpoises from the outdoor bridge or from the long underwater tunnel (38 km). Visit the home town of H.C. Andersen, Odense, a modern and evocative town with a number of leisure potentialities in the shape of music, theatre, shows on the squares, pedestrian streets, cafés, restaurants and pubs (56 km). 'Den Fynske Landsby' by Odense is an open-air museum, showing a Funen village environment from around the year 1850.

Current Immunisation Programmes
- Childhood Seasonal Flu Programme
- Seasonal Flu and Pneumococcal Vaccination Programme
- Hepatitis B vaccination for At Risk Babies
- Meningitis C for University Freshers
- Shingles
- Pertussis in Pregnancy Programme
- MMR (measles,mumps,rubella) for any who have not completed full course (2 vaccines).
Childhood Seasonal Flu
In 2012 the Joint Committee of Vaccination and Immunisation agreed the planned roll out of flu vaccine to ALL children aged 2-17. This roll out started in 2013, with the vaccination of children aged 2-3yrs.
In 2016 the programme was extended to include all aged two-, three- and four-years of age (but not five years or older) on 31 August 2015. All children of school years 1 and 2 age were also vaccinated by school nurses.
In 2018-19 there is, once again, an increase in the groups of children planned to be offered flu vaccination (see below for details)
The objective of flu immunisation is to protect those at most risk from flu and to reduce spread in the community.
Most children will be offered a single nasal spray vaccine unless this is contraindicated (eg previous allergy).
Those children who are in a "high risk group" for other reasons (not simply their age group- eg asthma/ chronic heart disease or other), will require a booster if they have not had the vaccine before.
In cases where the nasal spray is contraindicated, then the injection should be used.

Which Flu Vaccine should Which Children have.. Nasal or Injection---2018
To see the guidelines regarding this question, please press here
Seasonal Flu and Pneumococcal Campaign (Adult Protection)
The aim of the vaccination programme is to protect those who are at highest risk from influenza or pneumococcal (pneumonia) disease.
Patients eligible for Seasonal Influenza 2018-2019 season
- people aged 65 years or over (including those becoming age 65 years by 31 March 2018)
- people aged from 6 months to less than 65 years of age with a serious medical condition such as:
- chronic (long-term) respiratory disease, such as severe asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or bronchitis
- chronic heart disease, such as heart failure
- chronic kidney disease at stage three, four or five
- chronic liver disease
- chronic neurological disease, such as Parkinson's disease or motor neurone disease, or learning disability
- diabetes
- splenic dysfunction
- a weakened immune system due to disease (such as HIV/AIDS) or treatment (such as cancer treatment)
- morbidly obese (defined as BMI of 40 and above)
- all pregnant women (including those women who become pregnant during the flu season)
- all those aged two and three (but not four years or older) on 31 August 2018 (ie date of birth on or after 1 September 2014 and on or before 31 August 2016)
- all children in reception class and school years 1, 2, 3, and 4
- primary school-aged children in former primary school pilots areas
- people living in long-stay residential care homes or other long-stay care facilities where rapid spread is likely to follow introduction of infection and cause high morbidity and mortality. This does not include, for instance, prisons, young offender institutions, or university halls of residence
- people who are in receipt of a carer's allowance, or those who are the main carer of an older or disabled person whose welfare may be at risk if the carer falls ill
- consideration should also be given to the vaccination of household contacts of immunocompromised individuals, specifically individuals who expect to share living accommodation on most days over the winter and therefore for whom continuing close contact is unavoidable.
This list is not exhaustive, and there may be some who are recommended to have the vaccine although not specifically fitting into one of these groups.
Patients eligible for Pneumococcal Vaccine
- Aged >65 on or before 31/3/19
- Aged 2-64 years and in high risk group as defined in "green book".
Hepatitis B Vaccination for Newborn Babies at Risk
This programme aims to protect new born babies who are at high risk (having Hepatitis B positive mothers) from the sequelae of Hepatitis B.
All pregnant women are offered screening for Hepatitis B in pregnancy.
All new-born babies born to mothers who have tested positive for Hepatitis B in pregnancy should receive a full course of Hepatitis B vaccination. This involves 4 doses given at birth, 1 month, 2month and then at 12 months of age. At 12 months a blood test is performed (at the time of, or shortly after the last vaccine) to check eradication of the virus. In the case of a positive test, the baby would be referred to the paediatric team.
Meningitis C "Freshers" (New University Entrants) Programme
Meningitis C (MenC) can cause life threatening disease (meningitis and/ or septicaemia)
The current vaccine schedule for MenC involves 3 vaccines (at ages 3 months, 12/13months and 13/14years).
However, there are a group of young adults who may have only had a single vaccine of MenC at a young age, and this group are at increased risk of MenC disease when entering further education for the 1st time due to close living conditions.
Hence a booster has been recommended for all aged 17-25yrs entering university for the first time and who have not had MenC vaccine since the age of 10.
Shingles Vaccination Programme
In March 2012 the JCVI agreed a roll out programme for shingles vaccination of patients at risk.
This is a single vaccination which gives protection against shingles.
Started in September 2013 with vaccination of those aged 70 and those aged 79.
From April 2017 the shingles vaccine is routinely available to people aged 70.
In addition, anyone who was eligible for immunisation in the earlier years of the programme but has not yet been vaccinated against shingles remains eligible until their 80th birthday.
The shingles vaccine is not available on the NHS if you are aged 80 or over.
This is a one off vaccine and does NOT need repeating.
Pertussis (Whooping Cough) Vaccination in Pregnancy Programme
In the first seven months of 2012 before the vaccination programme began, 235 babies under 12 weeks old had whooping cough and 13 babies died from it.
Whooping cough is a serious infection, causing long bouts of coughing and choking, making it hard to catch ones breath. The infection can lead to pneumonia and brain damage. It is particularly important to protect tiny babies from it.
You can protect your baby from getting whooping cough in the first weeks of life by vaccinating yourself in pregnancy. After vaccination, you make antibodies to the bacterium, which cross the placenta and act as protection to your baby after birth.
Following the introduction of whooping cough vaccination in pregnancy, the rate of whooping cough in infants under the age of 12 weeks has fallen dramatically.
Whooping Cough Vaccination in pregnancy should be given -
- Ideally between 16 and 32 weeks
- Continues to offer protection if given up to 38 weeks.
Your baby will still need whooping cough (pertussis) vaccine as part of the normal infant immunisation programme starting at 8 weeks. This is because, at that time, the antibodies that were transferred in pregnancy are becoming less active.

Those of us located in the UK will have probably seen the TV Adverts for the 'Drive 5 Miles Less a Week' campaign. Introduced as part of the UK government's ACT ON CO2 programme, the aim of the campaign is for all UK drivers to reduce their weekly mileage by 5 miles, thus saving on 2.7 million tonnes of CO2 per year. They report that car travel is the single biggest source of CO2 emissions in the UK today and that most people would be easily able to reduce their car travel by 5 miles per week. It certainly doesn't sound much and is something I have been attempting to do for the last month since I first saw the advert. The government have suggested 5 tips to help reduce my mileage:
Share a car journey with family - Sharing a journey where possible makes complete sense, but providing I have had enough seats this is something I've already been doing. This unfortunately means there are no miles to be saved on this one for me.
Combine multiple trips into one - Plan your journey ahead and a combine multiple trips into one. I like to be efficient with my time, so again this is something I have already been doing. I have tried to focus on it more, but I don't think there are any miles to be saved here for me.
Walk to the shops - This is one I can do, and I am now walking to the expensive local shop to buy bread, milk and the Sunday Times, instead of driving to Tescos. This is costing me a lot of money, and the shop owners are very unpleasant, but it saves around 3 miles per week.
Cycle instead of drive for short journeys - For me it is very rare a journey arises that is too far too walk or that cannot be combined with other trips. For this reason, and the fact I like to arrive at my destination alive, I haven't tried cycling yet.
Plan your route - To make sure you don't drive around and waste miles getting lost. I use a sat nav when I don't know the way, so all routes are planned. I could set it to always calculate the shortest route rather than the fastest and this would gain me some miles, but I am not sure this would cut down my CO2 emissions.
You can see that by following the government's advice alone, I had only managed to reduce my weekly mileage by 3 miles. However, in the last week alone I have taken part in 6 conference calls from my office instead of driving to meetings. Taking into account the distance required to get to these meetings, this has reduced my mileage for the week by 380 miles, and if we include the other participant's journeys in to the equation then we saved 2660 miles in one week. That's a fair amount of CO2 reduced, certainly enough to justify not buying a bicycle just yet.

Targeting activin receptors to promote myelin repair
Dr Veronique Miron,
University of Edinburgh,
About the project
Myelin is made by specialised cells known as oligodendrocytes, which are found within the central nervous system. Myelin repair involves stem cells in the brain that multiply and generate new oligodendrocytes. As MS progresses, the myelin repair process becomes less efficient and damage accumulates, meaning that nerves don't function properly.
This project will explore the role of a molecule called activin-A which has been found to be present in the brain during myelin repair. Stem cells in the brain have activin receptors that when activated in laboratory studies multiply and produce more oligodendrocytes. The researchers will be looking to understand further how activin receptors control stem cell behaviour. This will reveal how important activin receptors are, and could pave the way towards new strategies that encourage myelin repair in MS.
How will it help people with MS?
This research aims to uncover the importance of activin receptors for stem cells in driving myelin repair. This is knowledge which could be implemented in the development of new therapies to slow the worsening of disability that results from nerve damage in MS.This research aims to uncover the importance of activin receptors for stem cells in driving myelin repair.

The difference you can make
There are currently no strategies to slow progression in MS. Supporting research like this helps to bring us closer to reaching this goal.
The next research breakthrough is in reach
Your donation will help stop MS.
£30could process one blood sample, giving researchers crucial information about genes and the immune system.
£50could pay for an hour on a microscope, so scientists can study cells and tissue in greater detail and improve their understanding of the biology of MS.
£100could pay for half an hour of MRI use, so researchers can monitor the success of clinical trials and understand MS in more detail.
Every penny you give really does take us a step closer to stopping MS. Your donation will make a difference.
£10a month could pay for lab equipment like microscope slides to study the building blocks of MS
£20a month could pay for lab equipment like petri dishes to grow bacteria important for studying genetics
£30a month could process a blood sample to help us understand what causes MS, so we can stop it in its tracks
Your regular donation means we can keep funding world class MS research with confidence. Together we will stop MS.

Mark Performs The Toughest Battle On 'The Voice'
Gwen Stefani called it her "favorite battle that I've ever seen," and Adam Levine said it was "one of the best battle rounds we've ever had." So, when Mark Hood won The Voice 's Battle Round on Monday night, it was super impressive. His competition was fellow Team Pharell member Celeste Betton. After some advice from advisor Missy Elliott (in which she lamented that Pharrell Williams had a huge decision to make), the duo battled it out with the classic "Ain't No Mountain High Enough."
I honestly couldn't have picked a winner, so it was shocking that Pharrell did. (Or not, I guess. He's a professional after all.) But, even his fellow coaches warned him that this was the toughest decision of the year. "Either one of them could be a star," Blake Shelton said after the performance. Pharrell had a hard time choosing, but eventually went with his gut and picked Mark because "musically he can do anything."
But, then I was shocked to see that no one chose to steal Celeste, even after they had raved about her. That was a huge oversight, if you ask me. But, I have no doubt she'll go on to do great things, even without the show. And, Mark will likely continue to thrill the audience and the coaches as he continues on the show. Overall, while there was only one Battle Round winner, we all won for having got to hear the stunning performance.

The European Union Operational Programme "Science and education for smart growth" is about to be stopped in Bulgaria because of numerous irregularities identified by Brussels' auditors. Interim payments are frozen until the irregularities are removed, and the European Commission is threatening it will suspend the program.
The warning letter to the Bulgarian authorities, under number Ares (2017) 721863, was sent on February 8 but Bivol has its draft text that was prepared when Boyko Borisov was still Prime Minister of Bulgaria. It is addressed to the Director General "Structural Funds and International Educational Programs" at the Bulgarian Education Ministry, Tsvetana Gerdzikova, the Director of the Executive Agency "Audit of EU Funds" Lyudmila Rangelova and the head of the certifying authority Manuela Milosheva.
It is indicative that the new caretaker Education Minister prof. Nikolay Denkov immediately demanded the resignation of Tsvetana Gerdzikova***, of the Secretary General of the Ministry Krassimir Valchev* and of Deputy Minister Krassimir Kiryakov**.
Prof. Denkov was Deputy Education Minister in charge namely of the operational program, which he developed in 2012 and that was approved by Brussels. When Meglena Kuneva became Education Minister, she took the portfolio from him, transferred it to Kiryakov and Denkov resigned.
Brussels audit finds "significant deficiencies"
The findings in the letter are devastating. They are listed an audit inspection N° REGC214BG0033 (EPSA) of the EC, conducted from 24 to 28 October 2016.
According to Bivol sources, the letter was to be sent on January 21, but it was delayed in order to avoid the impression that the EC is freezing funds for the center-right government of Borisov. The same sources argue that Borisov has called "his friend" Juncker (EC President Jean-Claude Juncker – editor's note) to stop the unpleasant message and the process of signing the letter by the coordinating EC directorates had been stopped at the eleventh hour, while the forthcoming report under the Cooperation and Verification Mechanism (CVM) had been the formal occasion.
European Commission spokeswoman Mina Andreeva categorically denied these allegations and said that Borisov and Juncker have not held any discussions on the topic.
"Borisov's EU funds" are also frozen
The findings of the audit mission are, however, a fact and the poor management of the operational program under Meglena Kuneva cannot be disguised and attributed to the caretaker government.
After the above publication, we received an email on our editorial email address with the position of the Education Ministry. In it, caretaker Education Minister prof. Nikolay Denkov confirms receipt of the EC letter, stressing it clearly explains the problems associated with, both, the systems for management and control of the program and the conducted competitions. He also notes that he is not surprised by the findings and the critical tone of the letter.
"They are the logical consequence of the way the program was managed last year. In April last year, I warned publicly that the change in the approach to the operational program will lead to problems. I was not heard. In fact, that was my reason to resign as Deputy Education Minister," the letter reads.
Minister Denkov further explains that together with the European Commission and in coordination with the team of the Deputy Prime Minister for European Funds, his Ministry is already preparing an action plan to address the issues as soon as possible. He stresses that he is of the opinion that Tsvetana Gerdjikova is directly responsible for some of the problems; therefore, he was expecting her resignation.
*The Chief Secretary of the Ministry Krassimir Valchev contacted us after the publication and stated in a right of reply that he had decided to leave the post on his own initiative and before the caretaker government was appointed, and this had nothing to do with the operational program.
** The press office of the Education Ministry also contacted us to clarify that the resignation of Deputy Minister Kiryakov had not been officially requested.
***On Sunday, Tsvetana Gerdzhikova also sent a position to our editorial office, saying she was appalled by the official statement of Prof Denkov that she is directly responsible for the findings of the European Commission auditors and that this statement was in absolute contradiction with reality. She points out that at the time of the audit Ivan Modev (now Chief of Staff of Minister Denkov) was Director General "Structural Funds and International Educational Programs", while until April 2016, Prof Denkov was Deputy Minister for the operational program, therefore, they should be held responsible.
Gerdzhikova confirms that during part of the said period she also worked in the department, but her functions and task at that time had not been related to the management of the operational program or the choice of evaluation committees that are the most strongly criticized by the auditors and that there are documents that prove it. She further notes that she has held the post of Director General only for two months, from December 1, 2016 (when Ivan Modev was transferred to another department) until February 1, 2017 (when she was hospitalized and her access to the work email was terminated).
"In those two months – with the support of the leadership of the Ministry – we developed a package of measures to address the shortcomings identified by the EC representatives during the audit mission. This package of measures and a list of all other urgent tasks were submitted to Minister Denkov and his team as soon as they took office. In short, I do not agree with being blamed and held liable for mistakes made by other managers," Tsvetana Gerdzhikova writes.

Argentina's mission to Australia took place in August 2012. The mission was supported by the Program for the Promotion of Agentine Universities of the Secretariat of University Policies, Argentine Ministry of Education.
The goals of the mission
The primary goals of the mission were to strengthen and expand partnerships between universities of the two countries.
The delegation was particularly interested in assessing the possibility of moving forward with cooperation agreements in various areas of knowledge, such as:
- exploring collaborations with SMEs to develop scientific innovations;
- establishing and/or strengthening research areas of mutual interest;
- encouraging mobility of undergraduate and graduate students and faculty members; and
- promoting cotutelle and double degree agreements.
The mission identified topics of mutual significance for both countries: agricultural science; telehealth; the environment; and fostering innovations through collaborations with SMEs.
A report on the Argentine mission to Australia is available in Spanish (PDF) and English (PDF).
Identified projects for collaboration
Two initial projects, supported by the Ministerio de Educacion Presidencia de la Nacion for Argentina Universities, have been identified for collaboration:
- Development of a shared courseware in Occupational Therapy
- Telehealth joint teaching.

Police cordon remains as Lowestoft terror investigation continues
PUBLISHED: 16:29 30 July 2019 | UPDATED: 09:35 31 July 2019
A police cordon remains in place as investigations into unidentified chemicals continue.
Officers from Suffolk Police carried out a pre-planned warrant on a property on Normanshurst Close, in Lowestoft, on Sunday afternoon.
After military grenades, a firearm and unidentifiable chemicals were discovered during a search of the property, a 100m cordon was established with 60 homes evacuated, including on Fir Lane.
A 59-year-old Suffolk man was arrested at the scene on suspicion of possessing a firearm.
He has now been further arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the commission, preparation and instigation of acts of terrorism, a spokesperson for the Met Police confirmed.
He has been detained and remains in police custody in Suffolk.
Usually, police are required to charge or release suspects within 24 hours, although people suspected of terrorism can be detained for 14 days without charge.
Former Eastern EDL regional organiser turned counter-extremism campaigner Ivan Humble, from Lowestoft, said: "While there is an ongoing investigation, it is essential that the authorities are left to do their important work.
"At this stage, rather than speculate or spread rumours, we should focus our efforts on reassuring all of the residents and neighbours of Lowestoft to continue being the steadfast and resilient community it has always been."
Emergency services have remained on the scene throughout, with the cordon since being reduced to the searched property and three neighbouring homes.
Following the search, detective chief superintendent Alexis Boon, of the Met Police Counter Terrorism Command, said there was nothing to suggest an ongoing threat to the public.
As well as Army Explosive Ordnance Disposal officers and Suffolk Fire and Rescue crews, charity volunteers were called to the scene, with 15 Salvation Army volunteers on-hand to serve refreshments to the emergency workers.
The call out marked the 400th incident the volunteer team responded to since being founded in 1978.
Michael Baker, coordinator of The Salvation Army's Suffolk Emergency Response Team, said: "For more than 40 years, Salvation Army volunteers have been privileged to support the emergency services and first responders at major incidents across Suffolk. As a Christian church and charity, we seek to alleviate distress wherever it is found, offering refreshments and pastoral support as required."

Janice Irene Hunt Passed peacefully from this life on June 8, 2019 with family at her home in Hobart, IN. Born in Salem, IL on March 23, 1946 to Doyle and Stella (nee Ritter) Mulvaney, Janice was a beloved daughter, mother, sister, aunt, and grandmother.
Janice (nee Mulvaney) Hunt graduated from Edinburg High School, and enjoyed playing basketball, horse barrel racing, and was voted the prom queen.
After graduation, she married Duane L. Hunt on May 30, 1964 and moved to the Chicago area. They were a couple that were never far apart and recently celebrated their 50th Wedding Anniversary in 2014 before Duane passed away on March 23, 2016.
Despite chronic health challenges Janice lived life with positivity and was a faithful servant of Jesus. She successfully raised her son, pursued and career working her way up to being a sales and training director with Mary Kay Cosmetics, and later a corporate trainer with ACME Steel Corporation. She loved being able to teach and mentor others. She was a proud mother of a Marine Corps officer, and a loving sister and aunt, a vehement supporter of family and others in need, and absolutely loved spending time with her two granddaughters. She was a generous, gracious, Christian lady who loved God and sought to live with integrity and honor, and treat others with the respect, love, and friendship as Jesus calls us to do.
Surviving is her son LtCol (ret) Craig S. Hunt and his wife Kristie of Valparaiso, IN, her granddaughters, Samantha and Josephine Hunt; brothers and sisters, Merle Mulvaney of Fairfax, VA, Verle Mulvaney of Kinmundy, IL, Joyce (husband Everett) Ayers of New Minden, Judy (husband Terry) Prasun of Stonington, IL, Donald (wife Janet) Mulvaney of Opelika, AL, and many nieces and nephews who she all loved and who loved her.
She was preceded in death by her husband, her parents, and her bothers, Gale Mulvaney, and Dale Mulvaney.
She was a strong supporter of charities and veterans support organizations, so donations or memorials in loving memory of Janice I. Hunt are suggested to American Liver Foundation, National Foundation for Transplants, and Wounded Warrior Project or Gary Sinise Foundation.
Visitation will be from 5 to 7 P.M. Friday, June 14, 2019 at Masterson Funeral Home, Kincaid, IL. Funeral service will be held at 10:00 A.M. Saturday, June 15, 2019 at Masterson's in Kincaid. Pastor Steve Smith of the Midland United Methodist Church will officiate. Burial will follow the funeral services at Bethany Cemetery, North of Tovey, IL near the edge of Lake Sangchris next to her beloved husband Duane.
To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of Janice Irene (Mulvaney) Hunt, please visit our floral store.

Stanisław Legus DUSK
ATTENTION, PLEASE! Be on time if you want to be part of the show – Stanisław Legus will be showcasing his latest works. Still a display as such, the exhibition will be of a rather unstationary, performative character, with elements of a theatre spectacle. DUSK will run only once and will run for an hour. Do not worry, the spectators will not be expected to do anything out of ordinary, it's still a visual arts show – looking will do. In fact, looking will be subject to the experiment and will be the main theme of the show. The final, permanent, object-oriented format of Legus' works can be achieved through consecutive learning stages.
The design of the display came to life as a mutual effort of Czułość Gallery and Matosek Niezgoda.
Stanisław Legus uses the photographic medium in an intuitive way. Stripped of any symbolics whatsoever, his art steers clear of any bureaucratised art discourse. Defying the reality, the artist paves his own independent ways. His immediate surroundings are the main motif in his works. The affirmation. The meaning is personal to such an extent, it couldn't serve as an argument in a rational discussion. Conceptual reduction equals searching for the lack of intentionality. The photographs on display reflect the reality as such, where the author's attitude, rather than the critique, gets tangible.
Now, have a look at the aesthetics. Unlike the depiction itself, the sole format of the presentation is clear-cut and contains all the elements of the object, including the abstract ones. It also forms part of a bigger whole, take the immediate environment – the display installation in a space in this case. The photographic object depicted in such paricular manner becomes an independent entity, engaging the spectator with all its aspects.
The DUSK private view will also see the premiere showcase of the latest publication by Stanisław Legus, under the same title.

Well, I think it's becoming apparent that we have succumbed to the grind in yet another country. Our bi-monthly trips have come to a striking halt since we have been working our tails off in Beijing. I wanted to take a quick minute to wish you a Happy Chinese New Year and let you all know that we are alive and well. Just very briefly, some highlights of the past few weeks:
-David and I took our first Chinese character class, which includes the transformation of characters from the Oracle Bones to simplified characters. Very interesting and already I can notice a difference in my general perception of characters.
-Hosted my most successful charity fundraiser with over 80 attendees and got some media attention: http://beijing.globaltimes.cn/community/2011-01/617839.html (The one about The Hutong Charity Drive.)
-Promoted Hairy Crab Fest 2011 at The Fig Tree, one example from a friend's blog.
-Found out friends Alison and Adam got engaged ON The Great Wall!
-Experienced the wonders of Dong Jiao Wholesale market, just a 30 minute walk from our apartment and is FULL of all things made in China at rock-bottom prices
-David found a good poker group and is already making a few additional RMB
-Joined a VERY Chinese gym for about $120/6 months=dirty but stress relieving nonetheless
Now, off to bed!
Oh, and a really great article about the current legal atmosphere surrounding charities in China.

With Election Day right around the corner, Democratic candidate for the 5th District Chris Murphy is bringing out the big guns.
Murphy has enlisted actor and Academy Award winner Ben Affleck to lend support. Affleck will appear at Murphy's campaign rally today at 1 p.m. in the Semesters Food Court of the Central Connecticut State University Student Center.
Brian Schubert, campaign spokesman for U.S. Rep. Nancy Johnson, had a less positive view of Affleck's appearance.
"Bennifer is going to bomb in New Britain worse than [the movie] 'Gigli,'" he said. "Now if Matt Damon were coming to town, that might be Oscar worthy."

Frederic Levrat's design studio designs and builds a "materialization of Information" pavilion in Mumbai.
'our environment today is increasingly influenced by nonmaterial conditions, from which we interpret material equivalences. from the stock market to urban regulations law, the tension between the virtual and the physical is increasingly richer and complex. most of the time, the rules defining architecture are based on the physical condition of gravity and the economical condition of construction cost. but other forces are shaping our society, from social to informational. are there other forces to be expressed in architecture than responding to gravity?' these are the thoughts posed by professor frederic levrat and director phillip anzalone of columbia university. with these questions in mind, a group of six students from the graduate school of architecture, planning, and preservation (GSAPP) and narsee monjee institute of management studies (NMIMS) developed 'space + image pavilion', a small structure which would explore the relation between the virtual, the visual, and the physical.

"Functional Medicine asks how and why illness occurs and restores health by addressing the root causes of disease for each individual." – The Institute for Functional Medicine
- Health and wellness
- Preventive
- Underlying causes #get2theroot
Who's Driving?
- Patient + Doctor Partnership
- Holistic. Using a systems-oriented approach, functional medicine doctors looks at all aspects of the patient not just isolated symptoms or the chief complaint.
- Highly customized to the patient, considering biochemical individuality, including genetics.
- Cost effective. Sometimes requiring up-front investment to permanently solve issues. Save expenses for a lifetime. Maximize and optimize health, wellness, and longevity.
- Optimize whole health, wellness, immunity, and longevity. Find and fix the root problems permanently.
- Usually start on time because the doctor sees only a handful of patients per day.
- Listen to patients. Teach and train patients. Take the time to do appropriate root-cause analysis to find and implement permanent solutions and to treat the whole patient.
- Emphasis on lifestyle changes, especially nutrition, and sustainable treatments that address the underlying causes.
Prescription Medications
- Prescribed only when warranted and nutritional, lifestyle, or holistic remedy is unavailable.
- Precise selection based on targeted, best possible outcome.
- Minimize side effects with consideration to genetics, gut-health, immunity, and wellness.

Published Date : June 04, 2018
Methyl ethyl ketone or butanone is a colorless liquid ketone compound that possesses an acute sweet odor resembling that of acetone and butterscotch. Butanones are organic compounds produced commercially on a very large scale and are generally employed as industrial solvents. They dissolve in water and are referred to as an effective and common solvent.
Synthetic synthesis procedures:
Oxidation process of 2-butanol would furnish methyl ethyl ketone which is immediately followed by dehydrogenation using catalysts like bronze, copper or zinc. Consequently, butanone compounds are produced. The approximate production is around 700 million kilograms per year. The synthesis methodologies applied for the manufacture of acetone could be incorporated for methyl ethyl ketone compounds as well. However, they have not been implemented due to various reasons. The various processes used for the manufacture of methyl ethyl ketone include oxidation of isobutylbenzene and Wacker oxidation of 2-butene. 2-butanone is procured by fractionation from the liquid-phase oxidation of heavy naphtha and the Fischer-Tropsch reaction produce assorted oxygenate streams.
Biological synthesis and natural emission of methyl ethyl ketones:
Methyl ethyl ketone compounds are released to the atmosphere from car and truck exhausts. They are biologically manufactured by certain trees and are found in some fruits and vegetables in very small quantities.
Plastic welding agent:
Ethyl methyl ketones have the ability to dissolve polystyrene and various other plastics. They are often pondered as adhesives and are commercialized as "model cement" for their usage in the connecting parts of scale model kits. Hence, they are known as plastic welding agents.
Butanones are one amongst the most commonly preferred solvents as they are employed in a variety of processes implicating resins, gums, vinyl films, cellulose acetate and nitrocellulose coatings. Due to their favorable hygroscopicity, they are used in the production of various textile materials, plastics and paraffin wax. They are also employed in house hold products like varnishes, cleaning agents, paint remover, lacquer and denaturing agent for glues and denatured alcohol. These properties have been observed in acetone as well. However, acetone compounds possess slower evaporation rate and higher boiling rate. Furthermore, methyl ethyl ketones end up in the formation of azeotrope with water. They are useful as in azeotropic distillation of moisture in certain applications. Dry erase markers require the usage of methyl ethyl ketones as they act as the solvents of the erasable dye.
Other prominent uses:
Some polymerization reactions entailing the cross linking of unsaturated polyester resins would require the usage of methyl ethyl ketone peroxide as catalysts. These compounds are procured by setting butanones as precursors.

Investigations Fair
The junior high students had their first Investigations Fair today. Students from grades 4-9 signed up for various sessions from a choice of over 50 sessions. This year's first Investigations Fair focused on a demonstration. Junior high students chose an area of interest and expertise, prepared promotional posters and pamphlets, and practiced their demonstration skills to the participants. Presentations were wide ranging and included such topics as learning to play ringette or cricket, to making perfect braids, doing the Rubik's cube and making the perfect sushi.
Chess at NHS
We had our K-Grade 3 chess tutorial today at lunch recess. Fantastic turnout – over 40 students! A tutorial will be given to those kindergartens not in attendance today. Thank you to all the junior high students who assisted with the tutorial.
If you have a chess set that is tucked away somewhere, is not in use, and you feel you can pass it on, we would gladly accept it!
Regular play will begin for all students when we are finished our tutorials.
Remembrance Day Ceremony
NHS is having it's Remembrance Day Ceremony tomorrow (Friday) afternoon at 2:27 p.m. Parents are welcome to attend. Poppies are available in the office for students to wear at the ceremony. Please provide an appropriate donation.
Early Dismissal and I & C Event Update
Please remember that Wednesday is an early dismissal day (2:14 p.m.).
As well, our I & C afternoon will be postponed until after the fall break. Our intention was to introduce the Math Fair on Wednesday. However, we have recently learned that a representative from the Telus World of Science is willing to come out to the school and speak directly with the students shortly after the fall break. We are certainly excited with that news. Therefore, the I & C afternoon will be postponed until then.
Chess & Rubik's Cube Tutorials
Chess has arrived! Thank you to the families who passed on some chess sets! We will be holding a chess tutorial from students from grades K-3 on Thursday at lunch. As well, we will begin our first Rubik's cube tutorial for interested students from Gr. 4 and 5 tomorrow at lunch. Students were informed today.

The Sandcrawler #48: The Greatest Action Figure Line Ever Created———————————————
This week we begin a series that we are simply calling, "The Greatest Action Figure Line Ever Created ." What is that line? The Power of the Force line that launched in 1995.
The first modern Star Wars action figure line, still a part of Kenner, was the line that turned a nine year old Dan and at the same time, a twenty seven year old Mac into Star Wars collecting fanatics. It's time to give it it's due and over the next several shows we'll be looking at this line, one wave at a time.
We want to see your favourite Power of the Force figures! Email them to sandcrawler @retrozap.com or tweet at us via @sandcrawlercast.
We also take a look at Haslab's images of the completed Jabba's Sail Barge and discuss the exclusive Yak Face figure that is included.
What does the ToysrUs bankruptcy news mean for collectors and more importantly, future generations? We talk about our memories of what could be the last big toy store.
Give us an iTunes review, tag us on Twitter or send us an email and we'll feature it on an upcoming episode!

Episode 47: Changing How We Collect V2.0
This show should be subtitled: "The Waterworld Episode" or maybe "The Best of Bill Gunderson." But, it isn't because this week we are talking about how our collecting habits have changed. Always in motion is the Star Wars room.
On Episode 33 we first talked about changing how we collect as Star Wars fans. With a few more months under our belts, along with The Last Jedi, Solo and some announcements from New York Toy Fair, we are both making some adjustments to how we collect Star Wars. It's a conversation we feel many collectors are having right now.
Funko revealed what could be their final wave of The Last Jedi Funko POPs and Hasbro's Haslab/Jabba's Sail Barge project continues to intrigue us. Check out fellow Retrozap podcast, Dorklair for their thoughts.
The Star Wars official site has a great article about Haslab, check it out here.
Collector, Dan Curto had some thoughts on Haslab on Rebel Force Radio.
Want to let Hasbro know what figures and vehicles you'd like to see in the Vintage Collection? Tell them on Instagram!

|October 1886 to 1886
|NEW YORK, New York
|Single tax, Election of 1886
|"Historian's Craft," University of Alabama at Birmingham
|No votes.
A short stocky man with a baldhead and bushy red beard rose to the podium and faced the 2,300 eager faces in the crowd. On September 2,1886 Henry George stood aside John McMackin, Chairman of the Convention of Organized Labor in New York City, and accepted the candidacy for mayor. He begins his speech by formally accepting the nomination, but quickly takes a sobering tone when he warns the audience not to "imagine that the politicians who have made a business of politics for years and have grown fat upon it will allow the working-men to smash their machines without trying their utmost to prevent it." Various union factions constituted the majority of George's voting base, but were also joined by Irving Hall Democrats whose anti-Tammany Hall sentiment was strong enough to break them from their traditional voting trends. Similarly, many Republicans were disenchanted by Theodore Roosevelt's description of labor as "crude, vicious, and un-American," leading them move to George's third party.
Despite the multitude of support George had accrued from across the political spectrum, George's self description as a public servant of the working class was a guise, behind which laid ulterior motives; mainly the self-serving purpose of the using the candidacy to propagate his own theories. After all, George had been close acquaintances with both Terence Powderly, and Samuel Gompers the two most influential labor leaders of his day, but stood in constant defiance of the principles they promulgated.
Although he topped Republican Theodore Roosevelt in the polls, the election saw George receive fewer votes than Democrat Abram Hewitt. In an era when the voting base of the working class was numerically superior, what kept the vote of labor from victory? While many workingmen might cite political corruption, and indeed George did, historians often point to factionalization within the already disjointed labor movement. Was this why George was unable to bridge the gaps between men whose best interests were clearly aligned?
While George was a dear friend to both Gompers, and Powderly, they clashed on many of the major issues within the labor movement. Powderly's Knights of Labor held membership of around 68,000 in New York, enough to effectively direct the outcome of the election. However, George openly disagreed with the Knight's policy of trade tariffs, and the theory of protectionism. George openly criticized the fallacies of protective tariffs having seen by his own eyes that they did more harm than good. Powderly attempted to avoid what he recognized was a divisive issue that would only further split solidarity among the labor movement, but George was outspoken, and unwilling to censor his beliefs during his campaign.
Gompers too had problems with George's qualifications to lead the labor party. Leaders such as Gompers believed that intellectuals were not to be trusted. Their sense of 'right' was self-serving, and any good intentions they may have had were quickly swept away by their tendency towards individualism. Furthermore, Gompers saw trade unionism as an end-all be-all for the plight of the laborer. And while George did care a great deal for the power of unions, and the working class, it would be mistaken to assume that George believed in the efforts of the labor party as a panacea to industrial sickness he observed.
Unlike his union compatriots George insisted that his effort was not against capital, but in alliance with capital against the landlord. Unlike many of the workingmen, George was strictly anti-socialist, having fervent belief in the power of self-help that "affirms the dignity of the individual to prosper, or suffer as he sees fit." The idea that capitalism was not to blame was shocking to many unionists, whose ideals focused on the abuse of capital. It was statements such as these that lead historian Frank Genovese to believe that ideological discrepancies proved the greatest barrier to unity. In his speech George addresses what he believes to be the true systematic discrepancies that left such unfavorable outcomes for workingmen. He notes that in New York "enormous value, that the growth of population adds to the land of this city is taken by the few individuals for the benefit of the idle rich, who look down upon those who earn their living by their labor." In line with his most noted contribution to Political Economy George proposes "tax on land exclusive of improvements, so that a man who is holding land vacant will have to pay as much for it as if he was using it." This method attempts to discourage land speculation, a dangerous practice that in George's eyes cause misuse, and by consequence grave inequities. So while he clearly cared a great deal about the predicament of the working class he never truly believed that trade unionism served any greater purpose. This misalignment of interests and theories proved to be most divisive in the election of 1886.
In the end, the election of 1886 served as a sad display of how self-interest lost the day for labor. After his victory Hewitt noted; "they could not allow a man like Henry George to be major of New York. It would upset all the arrangements."

Why rebuild index when start sql? You can do that during off hours.
The whole process is done during off hours. We do a server reboot, disk defrag, and index rebuilding at 2am every Sunday morning.
Your DBCC Shrink file job should executed after the DBCC reindex job.
My Site:http://www.mssqlengineering.com
My Book:http://www.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyT...470477288.html
Thanks for the advice. Next time I do a shrink I will turn off the reindex job. Then if the file doesn't grow, that will be a good indication that the reindexing was the cause of the file growth.

His Plans, Your Plans
13 Now listen, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money." 14 Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. 15 Instead, you ought to say, "If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that." 16 As it is, you boast in your arrogant schemes. All such boasting is evil. 17 If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn't do it, it is sin for them. (James 4:13-17)
There's nothing wrong with making plans. Even God has plans. But our plans often reveal the state of our hearts. Are you planning apart from God or because of God? People who do not know God make bold plans without realizing that they do not control their time, much as they would think they do. The truth is that time is not in our hands. Each day is a gift from God. Well, each hour and each second is a gift from God. None of us can assume a single second! If God allows us to live, then we must use it to glorify Him. But this is not possible unless we first surrender our lives to God. Our real problem is not so much that we don't think about God; we just don't think of Him enough. Our plans are simply signs of our arrogance, i.e. we think we are in control of our lives. But once you submit your life to God (which is the best thing you can do to make your life really secure in Him), and allow Him to reveal His plans for you (which are far better than yours), then you can make the necessary plans that can conform to His will. If you want to know more of His plans for you, start studying His word, the Bible.

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Online auction giant eBay Inc. will allow some customers to buy and sell digital music files as part of a pilot program that could piggyback on the success of Apple Computer Inc.'s iTunes service.
San Jose, Calif.-based eBay said an unspecified number of "preapproved" users could conduct digital music transactions in eBay's new "Digital Downloads" category for the next 180 days. Executives will then determine whether to formally enter the market.
"We don't want to blow this out of proportion — this is a pilot program to see if there's even any demand," said eBay spokesman Hani Durzy. "Much of what happens on eBay happens because the community takes us there, and this is essentially giving the community a way to see if we should create this new venue."
The experiment, announced this week in a posting on eBay's Web site, reverses a longstanding policy at the world's largest auction company.
For years, eBay included digital music on its list of forbidden merchandise, along with human corpses, weapons and drugs. The company still forbids most digital downloads, including software, video delivered through peer-to-peer file-sharing communities and e-books.
Customer service representatives will monitor eBay's fledging music site and try to ensure that the sellers own copyrights to the songs.
EBay's venture comes the same week that Cupertino, Calif.-based Apple announced that 100 million songs had been sold at its iTunes Music Store.

The United States is nearing the end of its US$18.4 billion fund for rebuilding Iraq, with little prospect of further multi-billion dollar injections.
The United States is nearing the end of its US$18.4 billion fund for rebuilding Iraq, with little prospect of further multi-billion dollar injections. In language mirroring the planned reduction of troops, American officials in Baghdad have begun talking of "drawdown", "transition" and the "wind-down" of American reconstruction projects.
Instead, they plan to focus on building up the Iraqi Government's capacity to manage its own affairs.
Outlining what he called the "drawdown", one American official said: "US reconstruction is basically aiming for completion [this] year. No one ever intended for outside assistance to continue indefinitely, but rather to create conditions where the Iraqi economy can use reconstruction of essential services to get going on its own."
Realisation that the last of the US money will be allocated by the summer, with work continuing well into 2007, will dismay ordinary Iraqis. Millions remain frustrated at what they see as a paucity of large-scale projects such as power stations, and still expect the US-led coalition to rebuild the shattered country's electricity network and essential services.
Standing in the capital's Baladiyat district amid heaps of sewage and rubbish Hamza Abbas, a casual labourer, said: "There isn't any construction. The only construction is piles of trash. Even if anything is rebuilt it will be sabotaged and the money will be in vain."
In the nearby slum of Sadr City, Jassem Zawaed, a traffic policeman, conceded that international and Iraqi efforts had begun paving roads and treating sewage, but cautioned: "There has been a good start, but it's only the beginning."
Brigadier-General William McCoy, commander of the US Army Corps of Engineers in the Gulf, confirmed that contracts for 80% of the US$18.4billion had already been issued. Those for the remaining US$1.7billion will be issued by the summer.
Asked if more sizeable tranches of congressional money were expected he replied: "No. Our intent always was that as they began to generate their own revenue and stabilise their own economy and stabilise the security situation that they would take this over."
General McCoy, who also heads the Project and Contracting Office in Baghdad, insisted that the Iraqis' own ability to reconstruct had "developed quite well". Whereas 60% of reconstruction contracts were once carried out from design to completion stage by international firms, nearly 77% were now awarded to Iraqi contractors, he said.
US officials say that experts will remain to train Iraqi ministries to manage their budgets. The aim is to decentralise and free up the sclerotic Iraqi economy through privatisation and subsidy reductions, and to improve the business climate.They also aim to replace the current poorly-targeted ration system with a welfare network designed for the "poorest of the poor" — the 25% of Iraqis living on less than US$1 a day.
But Iraqis complain that nearly three years after the war Iraq still produces just 4800 megawatts of power, little more than the 4000 before the war, and far short of its needs. Baghdad remains a special problem, receiving just three hours of electricity a day because of sabotage to oil and electricity lines.
Insurgents have exploited the public anger, timing a series of attacks on the vulnerable electricity and oil lines to coincide with the Shia-led Government's recent decision to increase petrol prices five-fold. The price hikes caused riots and tyre-burning protests among Iraqis accustomed to having the cheapest petrol in the world.
Although General McCoy insisted that the trend of attacks was down, he confirmed that last week was the worst so far for the US-led reconstruction team; with six killed in attacks or accidents, four wounded and two kidnapped. But he said his team, especially its Iraqi members, remained "resilient".

When Amaya Lane gets to her Chemistry class at Duncanville High School, the first thing she does is log onto the computer. That's where her teacher, Cynthia Ivey, will provide the day's lesson all the way from Charleston, South Carolina.
"I like her. She's a good teacher," Amaya says. "She knows how to explain things and makes the learning fun."
Duncanville ISD is piloting a program to offer online instruction for classrooms that have in the past been led by long-term substitutes. It's a high tech solution to what has become a nationwide issue – an ongoing teacher shortage.
According to federal data, the number of student candidates enrolled in teacher training programs fell by more than 35 percent between 2009 and 2014. Districts like Duncanville are being forced to come up with creative ways to ensure students are still able to take the classes they need and want.
Duncanville High School began the 2017 school year without full-time teachers in a couple of core subjects – despite an aggressive recruitment campaign that included an increase in starting teacher salaries.
In November, more than 700 Duncanville High School students began taking online classes online through a company called Proximity Learning.
"It is important to have a certified teacher provide engaging instruction to our students," said DHS Principal Tia Simmons. "I am also excited about the opportunity to bring this level of technology into the classroom."
Teachers employed by Proximity Learning are certified in the state of Texas and customize their lesson plans to the students in their classes at DHS. A liaison, trained by the company and paid by the school district, is present in every classroom to facilitate.
"Our facilitator focuses on students that are off-task, which allows our Proximity instructor to focus on teaching," said Geometry student Roxana De Le Rosa.
In this pilot program at DHS, students are taking Chemistry, Geometry and English III.
Teachers employed by Proximity Learning are available for student questions and for parent conference dates and times.
"If I miss class or need more help I am able to review the recorded videos from previous lessons while I am at home," De Le Rosa said.
Proximity Learning boasts a 93 percent passing rate for its courses. If students at Duncanville ISD perform well with online learning, the pilot program could expand to more classes until the number of teachers increases.
