When John and I did the Shawshank Hustle this year, I was able to acquire the Medal and t shirt from the previous year 🙂 (Their FIRST year!!)
So in order to EARN this medal I completed a 5K at home around my neighborhood.
This ended up being a pretty tough run, which is why I choose this run to count for earning this medal.
About 3 KM into my run, the sky decided to open up and it began to pour down on me.
Oh well…a little rain never hurt anyone.
I didn't time this run due to the rain and trying to keep my phone dry, however, 5KM was completed and that is all that counts. 🙂

Villa and townhouse transactions in Dubai hit a five-year high in the first three quarters of 2019, according to statistics from Data Finder, a real estate insights and data platform under the Property Finder Group.
There has been a total of 5,812 villa and townhouse transactions registered in Dubai in Q1, Q2 and Q3 of 2019. This is a five-year high for transactions of this particular asset type when compared to corresponding timeframes since 2015.
The second highest was in 2017 when Dubai clocked 4,826 villa and townhouse transactions in the first three quarters combined, stated the report.
The number of cumulative transactions in the first three quarters of 2019 has even surpassed the volume of villa and townhouse deals for the whole years of 2017 and 2018, it added.
This contradicts reports that the Dubai property market is slowing down and proves that demand still exists for the right product type.
This demand could suggest two things: more end-users are choosing to buy property in Dubai and existing homeowners could be making use of the current attractive property prices to upgrade their accommodation to villas and townhouses, stated the report.
"In 2017, we saw the first wave of affordable townhouses hit the market in Reem Mira and they were in high demand. Developers have since followed suit as they realised the trend and demand for affordable stock was clearly there," remarked Lynnette Abad, the director of Data and Research, Property Finder.
"Contrary to public perception, the summer months witnessed robust transactional activity," she pointed out.
Villa and townhouse transactions in the summer of 2019 again hit a five-year high, with 1,841 deals registered, noted Abad.
The second-best performance in the last five years was in the summer of 2018, with 1,273 villas and townhouses exchanging hands in Dubai. This was followed by the summer of 2017 where 1,167 such units were sold, she added.
In terms of the best month for sales, September 2019 was particularly good for villa and townhouse sales in Dubai, with a total of 965 units sold.
This is the second-best performance for this asset type since 2015. February 2017 took the top spot with 1,079 villas and townhouse transactions registered and July 2019 was in third spot with 838 such units sold.
The third quarter of 2019 also saw impressive sales (2,310) for villas and townhouses, ranking second in terms of performance since 2015. Only Q1 2017 recorded more such unit sales (2,462) while Q1 2019 was in close pursuit (1,777).
According to Abad, the ready units have been the main driver of villa and townhouse sales so far this year.
Dubai has already registered 3,035 ready villa and townhouse sales in the first three quarters of 2019, hitting a five-year high. In comparison, only 2,591 ready villas and townhouses were sold in the corresponding time in 2018 and 1,446 such units in 2017, she stated.
The summer of 2019 was also the best in the past five years for ready villa and townhouse sales, with 877 such units changing hands. This was followed by the summer of 2018 (809) and the summer of 2017 (416).
When looking at quarterly performance, Q2 and Q3 of 2019 ranked second and third respectively for the highest number of villa and townhouse sales since 2015. Q2 2019 clocked 1,048 such unit sales and Q3 2019 registered 1,028 such sales. Q4 2018 ranked first with 1,057 such sales.
April 2019 was the best month for villa and townhouse sales (469) in the last five years, followed by October 2018 (395) and March 2018 (385).
Ready, newly completed villas are seeing heightened interest with developers offering very attractive incentives. This could take the form of stretched post-handover payment plans, service charge waiver, club membership and other discounts.
"There is a good amount of affordable villas and townhouses available in the market today and investors have their choice, both in the ready and off-plan sectors. There are also good deals to be had in the off-plan and ready space as developers are eager to clear their inventory," Abad added.
Off-plan villa and townhouse sales have also been robust in Dubai. September 2019 saw the second highest number of transactions for this asset type (601) in the past five years, ranking behind February 2017 (927).
The summer of 2019 was also the second best for villa and townhouse sales (964) since 2015, only trailing the summer of 2015 (973).
Dubai has registered 2,777 off-plan villa and townhouse sales cumulatively in the first three quarters of 2019.
The communities of Villanova (395) and Dubai South (314) have seen the highest number of villa and townhouse transactions this year. In the ready space, Wasl Gate in Jebel Ali (219), Emirates Living (101) and Dubai Hills Estate (77) have dominated sales while in the off-plan segment, Villanova (379), Dubai South (309) and Arabian Ranches 3 (247) have accounted for most sales.-TradeArabia News Service

|Top Online Data Backup Rankings
New strategic partnership helps Acronis expand access to public cloud, providing customers with a greater choice for backup storage and disaster recovery
BURLINGTON, MA – August 7, 2018 — /BackupReview.info/ — Acronis, a global leader in hybrid cloud data protection and storage currently celebrating its 15-year anniversary, today announced a new strategic partnership with Microsoft for deeper integration of Acronis' data protection products with Microsoft's Azure cloud services.
Acronis provides complete data protection for all Microsoft workloads (including workstations, servers, applications and mobile devices), helping customers, resellers and service providers leverage the full power of Microsoft's technology stack. Acronis also can backup Microsoft Azure workloads, with Acronis Backup and Acronis Backup Cloud.
The new partnership will allow customers and service providers to even more easily store their data or clients' data in the Azure cloud. Azure will be available as a storage destination option alongside Acronis Cloudand other public cloud vendors in future versions of Acronis products.
Today, Acronis partners and customers use Azure's capacity for storing data, but it requires manual installation and configuration of the Acronis Backup Gateway. Acting on customer and partner requests, Acronis and Microsoft are working together on providing native integration of Acronis solutions with Azure services.
Service providers can choose to buy their Azure storage directly from Microsoft, or Acronis can include the Azure storage costs as part of a single invoice.
Native integration of Acronis' data protection solutions with Azure will make Azure-based service more attractive and will help Microsoft partners drive more revenue. Service providers will be able to complement their Azure-based product offerings with Acronis' easy, fast, and reliable data protection solutions augmented by Acronis Active Protection, an artificial intelligence-based defense against ransomware attacks. Together with Acronis, they will be able to drive more Azure usage and generate additional revenue by upselling data protection services to existing clients and using Acronis' complete data protection as a differentiator in the crowded market space.
The partnership with Microsoft is part of Acronis' overall strategy to support all workloads, delivering safety, security, accessibility, privacy and authenticity for data stored in local, cloud and hybrid environments.
By delivering full support of more than 20 platforms, native integration with PSA and RMM tools, and growing support of public cloud vendors, Acronis enables service providers to make the most out of their existing cloud arrangements.
"A lot of products that we build deliver value to clients using Microsoft technology," said Acronis President John Zanni. "With easy, reliable and efficient backup and built-in security in the form of active protection against ransomware, our clients enjoy complete protection of their data. Adding Azure as a native storage destination increases their options, making Acronis solutions even more attractive to use. For any organization that has built their strategy on Microsoft, this is great news."
Judy Meyer, General Manager, ISV partners at Microsoft, agrees: "It's great to see how Acronis is transforming the services it offers to its customers, innovating in anti-ransomware and data protection. Microsoft and Acronis have worked closely together over several years in planning the adoption of public cloud services as part of Acronis' portfolio, and we're delighted to see the progress that's been made in using Azure and the Microsoft AI platform."
Acronis' partnership with Microsoft will extend beyond Azure integration. The two companies will join forces extending the artificial intelligence (AI) functionality of Acronis Active Protection — an innovative technology that has already prevented over 200,000 ransomware attacks across 180,000 consumer devices in the past 12 months.
The partnership has already inspired joint research, for example, discussing applications of Hierarchical Attention Neural Network for sequence classification to detect malware without executing the malware code, as published in the Microsoft Developer Blog.
"Microsoft has invested decades of research into artificial intelligence including; cognitive services, conversational AI, Machine Learning tools and more….and has built the global cloud platform to help our customers make use of these powerful AI technologies. By using the Microsoft Azure cloud platform and AI Tools/Services with the Acronis Backup service, Acronis will be able to work on bringing valuable analytics services to market, so their customers can understand and manage their data much more effectively," commented Steve Guggenheimer, Vice President of Business AI at Microsoft.
About Acronis
Founded in Singapore in 2003, today the company is trusted by more than 5 million consumers and 500,000 businesses worldwide, including 79 of the top 100 most valuable brands.

The Chicago Marathon!
For the past 24 years in one way, shape, or form I have worked the Chicago Marathon. Of course I have clients I massage in preparation before and after the race. There have been many years of volunteer service to the race itself, the massage tent (sponsored by the school I went to and then used to teach at), other organizations; I have volunteered in other capacities as well. My business has even supplied massage hours! I have worked the expo. During the past couple of years I even was a consultant and coach for a charity team very close to my heart, the ALZStars (Alzheimer's Association).
So next year there will be a small change. I will be training and running the marathon myself! I will be fundraising for the ALZStars (and of course continue on with the team as a coach/consultant if they will have me!) So look out folks! We worried about the heat this year, next year….Blizzard! UGH. I decided its my turn. I have wonderful therapists that work with me that can help out a bit more around race day…and very supportive friends and family! This won't be my first marathon, but will be my first HUGE endurance race.
I am excited! I look forward to registering and meeting my team. I have lots planned for them (wait until Sharri hears all that haha!)
Stay tuned, I will have other races as well that I will be training and doing…and the schedule is pretty big!
Is it too soon to be THIS excited? xo
P.S. I said it…now I am accountable.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Rascals, the VR board game where you take first person control of your pieces to play dirty tricks on the opposition. It plays much like any other board game where you throw dice to move your pieces along a path from Start to Goal, until you sneak up behind one of your friends and shoot him in the back of the head. If that doesn't sound like fun, you can always crush him with a rolling boulder, or just blow him right off the board. If just racing all your pieces to Goal isn't enough, you can try your hand at quicker game modes like racing a single piece to goal, Hold the Fort in which you must control the Goal area to score points, or Last Man Standing where you simply have to survive.
You will be doing battle against a varied bunch of AI personalities, with different skill sets and tactical preferences setting their play styles apart. To help you gain an edge you have access to a wide array of weaponry, ranging from rocks and guns, through explosive bananas and dynamite, to Ninja Whale attacks and insidious arrows that keep hurting your victim until he can afford to remove it. The Rascals themselves are both cute and creepy, the perfect victims of your acts of violence, lovingly crafted from exotic wood in a world of marble and granite.

Watch me
July 09, 2019
"Watch this, Mom, watch me."
My son jumps into the pool,
surfacing to ask "was that
a perfect pencil dive?" Or
"look at this, do I look
like a dolphin," wiggling
through the water, "or more
like a whale?" breaching
and landing with a splash.
If I don't witness, it's
as though it didn't happen.
Sometimes I watch, hungry
for every instant of his
nine-year-old summer, glimmer
of sun-sparkles on the water
and maybe a popsicle after
with hair still dripping wet.
Sometimes behind my shades
I want to roll my eyes: kid,
I can't be there your whole life
to see every move you make.
But what else are these poems
if not me calling out to you
watch this, Mom, watch me?

Living Picture Narrative
Dear Michelle,
Throughout this course, I have written three main essays: a literacy narrative, a Wikipedia article, and a podcast. I have also written countless reflections and Learning Blogs in which I discussed things from what I have learned to plans for revision. While writing these assignments and reading the assigned readings, I have learned a plethora of things about my writing process, research, and metacognition. These skills will be used throughout my life.
I learned a lot about the writing process in this class, and I have changed my way of writing because of it. Before learning about the writing process in this class, my way of writing consisted of procrastinating, more procrastinating, and then finally sitting down to contemplate the assignment before me. I was always very intimidated by assignments, and that usually led to me putting them off until I absolutely had to do them. Once the piece had been written, I would usually only revise it once myself and then would turn it in, eager to get it off my hands. However, I have learned in this class how important the writing process is. I took the advice Anne Lamott wrote in her essay "Shitty First Drafts" to heart. I now get started on assignments as soon as possible, because I don't put pressure on myself to writing amazing first drafts. This has helped me manage my time better.
Because of the Living Picture Narrative, I also place much more emphasis on the revision process. I got so much helpful feedback from my peers about my living picture narrative, and their comments improved my essay. Because of this, I have realized how important getting other people's opinion on your work is. Often times, they see what you don't. Peer reviewers can help you with issues like structure and word variety.
My ability to research was strengthened by the assignments I have written. The Wikipedia article challenged us to find a topic that wasn't on Wikipedia. We had to write about the topic in detail, citing sources we used. Through this, I learned where to find academic sources. I had never had to use academic journals before, so I learned a lot about where to find them and how they are different from articles online. I learned a lot about the importance of citing sources. It is immensely important to give credit to people from whom you have used research. This insures that you don't get accused of plagiarism. I was sloppy with citation in the first draft of my Wikipedia article because I had no idea how important it was. I also learned a lot about performing research myself. Before the podcast project, I had never had to observe people. I learned how important privacy is and how to go about giving people their privacy.
I also strengthened my metacognitive skills. In this class, we had to do a lot of reflecting about our work. All of the learning blogs and reflections after each essay forced us to really ponder why we wrote what we did and what we learned from it. I typically don't enjoy reflecting on work after it is done, but these assignments were a nice way to think about my work and how it was formed. Also, peer review allowed me to reflect on the work I had done. Looking at other people's work helps me to be more introspective about whether or not I wrote to the best of my abilities. It helped to see what others had written compared to what I had written.
I will be able to transfer the new skills I have learned into future classes and, eventually, a job. Classes might require me to write long essays, through which I can apply the skills I have learned like "shitty first drafts," paragraph structure, and the importance of peer review. Jobs might also require me to write reviews or summaries of work I am doing. I will be able to write these confidently.
I have learned a lot in this class, and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to take it and learn as much as possible about writing. I will take what I have learned with me on future endeavors, be it classes or jobs.

I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I walked in to the beautiful space that Marisa and Michael have created for their services. Ganja yoga is just one piece of their healing practices – and it has been a total game-changer in my life. I am so grateful to have found this group that allows me the space to step into a deeper sense of self, share intimacy with others, understand and appreciate all the different ways we as humans are connected to one another and also a really safe place to be vulnerable. Not only does this place fulfill me spiritually but it also is a great time. I dance, laugh, sing and do things completely outside of my comfort zone (to my surprise) . ~Rachel Allen, Co-owner of The Healing Pack
I woke up this morning feeling happy and physically great. Marisa's ritual last night was amazing. The space is magical and feels like you have been transported to a Costa Rican garden with divine beings hold a space of peace, serenity, and healing. Marisa leads a powerful journey of healing and self-discovery. You can tell, from the moment you meet her that her experience, wisdom, compassion are just a few of the gifts that she bestows on the world. Give this truly special experience a try and see why incorporating her journey work in your life will elevate you as a human.
~ Beth from Santa Monica
Marisa and Michael are amazing host for Ganja Yoga. The way they hold space to allow you to connect to your inner self is like no-other! There is no judgement and you really get to connect with the energy and spirit of the medicinal plant. Before the ceremony starts, intentions for the evening are set and gets all participants focused on using the healing benefits of cannabis to really take advantage of the evening. Marisa then carefully guides participants through a series of movements to help deepen the connection and to allow for your intention to work through your body, while also allowing you to do whatever movement your body is asking for! My partner and I went together and now we feel that this is a weekly must! The happy little child in me is the happiest she's been all my life as I finally had a chance to let her out a play that day and I'm still feeling the happiness 3 days later. They are easy to talk with and they make you feel safe. These are the type of people I want in my tribe and a way of having that is going to this amazing event they have created! This has helped me so much!

A quick note about This is True's story sources. When I started True, I wanted my stories to be from "mainstream, legitimate newspapers" — with an early addition being the weekly news magazines (like Time and Newsweek). I've always stayed away from broadcast sources, since I always want a printed version of a story to rely on.
Evolution Happens
With virtually all news media having web sites now, which provide those all-important text versions of their stories, I have from time to time considered updating the policy and allowing broadcast news outlets — but only if I can get a text version of the story from their web site.
As of this month, with CNN announcing it's creating a wire service for newspapers to compete head to head with the 150-year-old Associated Press, I am as of now going to start using CNN's written stories as a source for True, as CNN is now a newspaper story source.
So how much should I expand this? I always want to stay with "mainstream, legitimate" news sources — never tabloids like the National Enquirer (or, worse, the freakish Weekly World News.) Should I allow stories from local TV news stations? Sometimes we see great stories on local TV news web sites, but haven't found the story in the local newspaper in the same city.
I'm interested in your thoughts on this. The comments form is open and ready to receive your feedback below.
– – –
The conclusion: the source list was expanded to include any "legitimate, mainstream" news outlet, including broadcast sources, if there was a published text version.

Real Madrid have identified Christian Eriksen as the player that would replace Luka Modric should the Croatian be allowed to move to Inter Milan this summer.
Modric who inspired Croatia to the final of 2018 World Cup in Russia is a target for the Milan side who just secured their return to the Champions League.
Real Madrid have told the Italians that he is not for sale at any price, however, Modric seems keen to try himself in another country and has apparently told the European champions that he wants them to consider Inter's offer.
Madrid are confident that they would not sell him, however, they have made plans should the unexpected happens and Christian Eriksen is the new playmaker they plan to sign.
Coincidentally, Eriksen is the player who replaced Modric at Tottenham when he moved to London from Ajax. Spurs hold Eriksen in high regards and with no player arriving at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this summer, the Lilywhites would not gamble on selling their prized asset ahead of a very important first season in a new stadium.
Eriksen also appears to be happy in London even though he has just two years left on his current contract. He is closer to renewing his contract than making a move away from the International Champions Cup winners.

Huge congratulations to Leaupepe Peta Karalus
24 March 2019
Leaupepe Elisapeta (Peta) Karalus, founder of K'aute Pasifika Trust based in Hamilton and a well-known Pacific leader in Waikato region has recently been honoured by Wintec, receiving the prestigious Honourary Fellowship Award for her services to the Pasifika community.
Leaupepe accepted the honour at the recent Wintec's Health and Social Practice graduation at Hamilton's Claudelands Events Centre, where she spoke about the tough time she had leaving Samoa as a 17 year old trainee nurse to travel to New Zealand to further her education.
Fast track to 1999; Leaupepe established K'aute Pasifika, a Pacific health provider with the help and support of the Pasifika communities in Hamilton. She remained a Chief Executive Officer there for 18 years.
SouthSeas have worked closely with Leaupepe and K'aute Pasifika over the years, and especially with Whānau Ora services, to help struggling Pacific families.
To date, K'aute Pasifika Trust services more than 4,000 Pacific Island clients in Hamilton with a range of health, social and education services.
"I felt greatly overwhelmed when I was told I was receiving this award," says Leaupepe. "I receive this award with honour on behalf of all the people and communities that were instrumental in making K'aute Pasifika Trust what it is today."
SouthSeas Board and CEO Silao Vaisola-Sefo congratulate Leaupepe Peta Karalus for her honourary award and her family for their support, especially for her longstanding contribution to Pacific families and communities in the Waikato region.
"We are incredibly proud to hear of Peta's achievement. She is an outstanding individual who has worked for many years serving our families and communities and has made a significant contribution in Waikato. We are so proud to see her recognised and we congratulate Peta and her family and wish her all the best for the future," says Silao.
Leaupepe is married to Dr Pauli Noel Karalus, who have nine children, some medical doctors and others with Phd's in their own fields.
She holds a high chief title, Leaupepe from the village of Fasito'outa and is the current President of the Fonofaufautua a Samoa, Advisory Council of Chiefs, Hamilton. In 2006 she was awarded the Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit in the Queen's Birthday Honours 2006 for services to the Pacific Islands community.
Leaupepe was among three other Waikato leaders in the areas of innovation, business and arts, all receiving honorary awards from Wintec for their longstanding contribution to their respective fields.

Like the general population, individuals with autism communicate in a variety of ways. Some speak vocally, others use sign, some use pictures, and some use other ways to communicate like gestures. In addition, some individuals have minimal communicative skills or lack them all together. It is a natural tendency to think that individuals who do not speak, do not understand. This is simply not true.
It is important to learn how the individual communicates with their parent/caregiver and it is important to learn what type of communication the individual understands. For example, a child's expressive language may be pictorial (meaning they show you an image), while their receptive language may be vocal (meaning they understand what you say).
Here are two more useful definitions in understanding language used by individuals with ASD.

Storing Solar Credits for Winter
You might have heard some folks claim that "solar doesn't work up north." Because "there's not enough sun." Well, we're here to tell you that that's just not true. At SunCommon, we look at your year-round energy usage and then design a solar system to match it. There's a lot of complicated math that goes into engineering your system, but the concept is simple:
You know how squirrels collect acorns all summer and fall, because they know they will need them through the winter? That's basically what you'll do with your energy. During long summer days, your panels will produce more energy than you need, which builds up credits with your utility company (it's why our customers have negative bills in the summer months). Then during the winter, when your panels are producing less, you get to use those credits you earned during summer.
Our customers will tell you, solar DOES work up north. Here's what Sara had to say:
"It's not often one gets a utility bill and says 'hooray', but I just did… my bill read -$190.91. In fact every bill since April has been a credit. 'How?' you may ask. Thanks to SunCommon! At this point, my summer credits will probably last me through the winter. I have been so pleased with SunCommon, their community vision, their commitment to non-polluting energy generation, and their service."
— Sara Lourie, SunCommon CSA member
Want more info on how solar works with your utility?
We build solar systems that work with your utility. That means you can produce more solar than you need all summer long, and use those credits in the winter when your system is producing less energy. You can to enjoy the benefits of on demand energy and zero out your energy costs, swapping your utility bill for a solar payment. Find out more about how solar works by clicking below.

North Dakota Game and Fish Department fisheries personnel are wrapping up a record-stocking of walleye fingerlings to more than 130 waters across the state.
Jerry Weigel, fisheries production and development supervisor, said more than 12 million fingerlings were stocked, besting the previous high by more than 1 million fish.
"Considering not many went into Lake Sakakawea, this included an unprecedented stocking of nearly 7 million fingerlings into the smaller fishing waters across the state," Weigel said.
With more than 50 new walleye lakes in North Dakota, Weigel said the demand to stock these waters, along with the larger, traditional fisheries, has greatly increased the demand from the hatcheries.
Valley City National Fish Hatchery produced more than 3 million walleye this year, the most in the hatchery's 77-year history. In addition, Garrison Dam National Fish Hatchery will ship a near-record number again this year.
Stocking conditions were optimal, Weigel said, with cooler weather at the time most of the fish were shipped. The 30-day-old fingerings averaged about 1.25 inches in length.
"They should find lots of food and good survival conditions, which bodes well for future fishing opportunities," Weigel added. "Later this fall fisheries personal will sample walleye lakes to assess success of this year's walleye stocking, as well as what Mother Nature provided."
One common observation fish haulers noted while traveling across the state, Weigel said, was the amount of fishing taken place, both from shore and from boats. "There has never been a better time to fish for walleye," he added. "Statewide, there are a lot of great opportunities, and a good chance of success."
For a complete list of all fish stockings, visit the fishing link at the Game and Fish Department's website at gf.nd.gov/fishing.

Electrophysiological constituents of the P100 and N170 ERP complex: De-constructing of face processing using independent component analysis and robust estimation.
Desjardins, James
MetadataShow full item record
The initial timing of face-specific effects in event-related potentials (ERPs) is a point of contention in face processing research. Although effects during the time of the N170 are robust in the literature, inconsistent effects during the time of the P100 challenge the interpretation of the N170 as being the initial face-specific ERP effect. The interpretation of the early P100 effects are often attributed to low-level differences between face stimuli and a host of other image categories. Research using sophisticated controls for low-level stimulus characteristics (Rousselet, Husk, Bennett, & Sekuler, 2008) report robust face effects starting at around 130 ms following stimulus onset. The present study examines the independent components (ICs) of the P100 and N170 complex in the context of a minimally controlled low-level stimulus set and a clear P100 effect for faces versus houses at the scalp. Results indicate that four ICs account for the ERPs to faces and houses in the first 200ms following stimulus onset. The IC that accounts for the majority of the scalp N170 (icNla) begins dissociating stimulus conditions at approximately 130 ms, closely replicating the scalp results of Rousselet et al. (2008). The scalp effects at the time of the P100 are accounted for by two constituent ICs (icP1a and icP1b). The IC that projects the greatest voltage at the scalp during the P100 (icP1a) shows a face-minus-house effect over the period of the P100 that is less robust than the N 170 effect of icN 1 a when measured as the average of single subject differential activation robustness. The second constituent process of the P100 (icP1b), although projecting a smaller voltage to the scalp than icP1a, shows a more robust effect for the face-minus-house contrast starting prior to 100 ms following stimulus onset. Further, the effect expressed by icP1 b takes the form of a larger negative projection to medial occipital sites for houses over faces partially canceling the larger projection of icP1a, thereby enhancing the face positivity at this time. These findings have three main implications for ERP research on face processing: First, the ICs that constitute the face-minus-house P100 effect are independent from the ICs that constitute the N170 effect. This suggests that the P100 effect and the N170 effect are anatomically independent. Second, the timing of the N170 effect can be recovered from scalp ERPs that have spatio-temporally overlapping effects possibly associated with low-level stimulus characteristics. This unmixing of the EEG signals may reduce the need for highly constrained stimulus sets, a characteristic that is not always desirable for a topic that is highly coupled to ecological validity. Third, by unmixing the constituent processes of the EEG signals new analysis strategies are made available. In particular the exploration of the relationship between cortical processes over the period of the P100 and N170 ERP complex (and beyond) may provide previously unaccessible answers to questions such as: Is the face effect a special relationship between low-level and high-level processes along the visual stream?

If you should be getting watches merely for time telling, you may not require in your thoughts the features of the timepieces that you are buying. However, if you want your watches do a whole lot more work; contemplate it seriously what your requirements are. The majority of the model timepieces are made with a great many other extra operates, such as for example calendar sign, geographic indication and astronomical indications. But there's a point you need to find out is that, the more powerful the big event is, the more expensive the watch is.
The most important section of the watches could be the movement. You also need to find out which movement you prefer, the technical action types or the quartz ones. Usually the mechanical actions could price a whole lot more than the quartz movements.
The past stage is that you ought to plan how much money you will invest in a watch. In the event that you mean to get a wrist watch that will be useful for long time, then you might think about spending additional money on the watch. If you purchase it really for enjoyment, you need to be more considerate.

South of Everything
Memphis minister Audrey Taylor Gonzalez's first novel, South of Everything, is a quintessentially Southern Bildungsroman that focuses on a young girl in postwar Tennessee as she navigates the spaces between black and white, the religious and the sacred, and youth and womanhood. Vibrant, sensual language and persistent spiritual surrealism make this project both seductive and wondrous.
Missy Sara lives on a sprawling farm that transitions from raising bulls to hosting show horses in the years before her confirmation in the Episcopalian church. Though she is encouraged to be a proper young lady, fingers unstained by the local barbecue and associating only with the "right" kind of people, no social chiding is able to stilt her sense of the magical. Instead, she finds her way via the stories of Old Thomas, a worker whose presence exudes divinity, and beneath the branches of the not always visible lolololo tree, its properties almost hallucinogenic, in the back of her family's property.
The dark events of the time period roil around Missy's family, taking a heavy toll on those she loves most: Old Thomas is nearly murdered by a racist mob; her childhood friend, B-Bubb, is party to a terrible accident that claims his sanity. Missy, though forced to adapt to the challenges of these events, always manages to find solace in the wonder that overlays her home: in birds that carry messages heavenword, or in the tangible kiss left by her grandfather as his spirit rose. Tales of animals that speak, epic journeys into wild lands, and the colorful remnants of the miracles she witnesses are as integral to Missy's maturation as are hard Memphis realities.
So, too, is an emerald-eyed young man, Mr. Washington, whose Plains wisdom and gentle ways send a spirit of rebellion through her veins, awakening the first hints of individual need in her. As Missy makes her way into young adulthood, as lackadaisically as God's finger sketched out the geography of her hometown, Washington's presence proves to be the divining rod that leads her to her own true center.
Gonzalez's novel defies the notion that magic is something that ought to dissipate with time or maturity, or that fades when one is properly steeped in religion. As the novel progresses, there is no doubt that the smatterings of color and vibrant dashes of the holy that Missy experiences all around her are more than a mere trick of her imagination. The novel makes heirlooms of the "miracle marks" left by Missy's most transcendent experiences, and the prose flows unpredictably from one bit of magical realism to the next.
South of Everything is a coming-of-age story of uncommon beauty, shot through with Southern poetry and Memphis musicality, that is as eye-opening as it is sympathetic.

Having totally killed the Japanese government bond market, Shinzo Abe has - unlike the much less transparent Federal Reserve, who allegedly use their proxy Citadel - gone full tilt into buying Japanese stocks (via ETFs). In May, we noted the BoJ's aggressive buying as the Nikkei dropped, and in June we pointed out the BoJ's plan tobuy Nikkei-400 ETFs and so, as Nikkei news reports, it is hardly surprising that the Bank of Japan bought a record JPY 123.6 billion worth of ETFs in August. The market 'knows' that the BoJ tends to buy JPY10-20 billion ETFs when stock prices fall in the morning. The BoJ now holds 1.5% of the entire Japanese equity market cap (or roughly JPY 480 trillion worth) and is set to surpass Nippon Life as the largest individual holder of Japanese stocks. And, since even record BoJ buying was not enough to do the job, Abe has now placed GPIF reform (i.e. legislating that Japan's pension fund buys stocks in much greater size) as a primary goal for his administration. The farce is almost complete as the Japanese ponzi teeters on the brink.
The Bank of Japan is growing into its role as a key source of support for the country's stock market, as it has stepped up purchases of exchange-traded funds to bring its equities portfolio to an estimated 7 trillion yen ($63.6 billion) or so.
The central bank bought 123.6 billion yen worth of ETFs in August, the largest monthly tally so far this year. At one point, it snapped up ETFs in six straight sessions amid weak stock prices.
The BOJ tends to make 10 billion yen to 20 billion yen worth of purchases when stock prices fall in the morning. The bank has not made any purchases so far in September because the market has been rallying.
According to BOJ data, the market value of individual stocks and ETFs that it held as of March 31 came to 6.15 trillion yen. Given its purchases since then and the market rally, the value is estimated to have increased to a whopping 7 trillion yen or so by now.
That figure accounts for 1.5% of the entire market value of all Japanese shares, or roughly 480 trillion yen. It also means the BOJ may surpass Nippon Life Insurance, the largest private-sector stock holder with some 7 trillion yen in holdings, as early as this year and emerge as the second-biggest shareholder behind the Government Pension Investment Fund -- the national pension fund with 21 trillion yen.
The BOJ started outright purchases of shareholdings from banks back in 2002 with the aim of stabilizing the country's financial system. To prevent stocks from tumbling steeply, it also began buying ETFs in 2010. The bank does not buy individual shares now, but it doubled its annual ETF purchases to 1 trillion yen when it introduced unprecedented levels of monetary easing in April 2013.
It is unusual for a central bank to buy stocks and ETFs, given that their sharp price swings pose the risk of undermining the health of the bank's assets. High levels of purchases by the BOJ affect stock prices and may hurt asset allocation and development of the financial markets.
The timing and technique of selling the BOJ's shareholdings are also a tricky question. A freeze has been put on sales of individual shares until March 2016, and there is no selling schedule for ETFs. But given that the bank's holdings are equal to roughly half the 15 trillion yen in net buying by foreigners last year, large-scale selling would be certain to shake the market.
* * *
We hope, by now, it is clear what a fraud the entire system has become. Simply put, the BoJ has the firepower (unlimited printing) but not the liquidity (the markets are just not deep enough as was clear in the JGB complex) to keep the dream alive if (and when) investors lose faith in Abenomics. Clearly that's why Abe needs to get the GPIF on the case...

Annual Fund
What is the Annual Fund?
The Annual Fund is our most important fundraising effort at FCS. It is the instrument through which we are able to raise funds to support the school's mission "to provide an excellent educational experience." Tuition alone does not provide the necessary funds to fulfill this mission so each year we set financial goals for our Annual Fund to allow us to purchase items that we believe will help us enrich and enhance our students' educational experience through investments in state-of-the-art technology, innovative curriculum, and physical assets.
Gifts to the Friendship Christian School Annual Fund are tax-deductible in accordance with the law and will be acknowledged promptly for tax purposes.
Why is the Annual Fund important to FCS?
Goal 1: Keep tuition and fees accessible
Goal 2: Be good stewards of what God has given us
Goal 3: Provide for the needs of our students
Goal 4: Enhance the overall educational experience of our students

TAMPA – When Homer Bush owned a secure job with Toronto a few years ago, he'd often notice the spring-training longshots yammering at their lockers.
They'd break down different scenarios that could yield them a major-league roster spot as if they were whispering conspiracy theories, and Bush would just shake his head.
Now, Bush is in that spot. So, Homer, what if . . .?
"I can't do it," Bush said, shaking his head and laughing.
Bush can make the Yankees, however. A non-roster invitee who signed on Feb. 5, the 31-year-old is competing with Enrique Wilson and Miguel Cairo for the second base opening. He'll play outfield today in the intrasquad game, and he's clearly a Joe Torre favorite.
"Can you carry all three [second basemen]? It's conceivable if I see versatility," Torre.
A rookie reserve infielder on the Yankees' juggernaut 1998 world championship team, he was included in the David Wells/Roger Clemens deal in the spring of '99. He once was known for his scintillating speed, something Torre lamented, "We really haven't had a guy off the bench who could do that."
Likewise, Bush has missed the Bombers.
"I mean, bro, I don't think I slept since the parade," he said.
Bush's ever-present smile conveys he's happy to be here, especially after missing last year with a misdiagnosed pelvis injury. His numbers dropped from his career-high .320 average in 1999 due to mysterious hip problems, and he retired last spring while in camp with the Padres.
After numerous MRIs revealed Bush's hip joints were fine, a Canadian doctor eventually uncovered that his pelvis had tipped from its proper position – which was causing havoc.
Bush strengthened his lower back to get the pelvis back in its original place, and then strengthened his core.
"I was able to run pain-free, and that's what I missed for the last six or seven years of my career," he said.
Torre doesn't know if Bush is as fast as in 1998, adding, "But he ran real good, and he wasn't afraid."

Marijuana charges against Browns WR Antonio Callaway dropped
Marijuana charges against Browns wide receiver Antonio Callaway have been dismissed, his attorney told Cleveland.com Thursday.
Callaway's charges stemmed from an August traffic stop when he was pulled over for failing to yield to oncoming traffic. Officers found a small amount of marijuana under the passenger seat of the car, resulting in a charge of minor misdemeanor possession. He was also charged for driving with a suspended license.
"The whole time I maintained he didn't know (the marijuana) was there. It wasn't his,'' Callaway's lawyer Kevin Spellacy said Thursday. "The officers on the video said he wasn't smoking it.
"It was literally the size of the tip of a pen. That's how minute it was and at the end of the day, they knew they had a problem proving a case against him that he knew he possessed marijuana which he didn't know.''
While the possession charges were dropped, the 22-year-old was sentenced to probation for driving on a suspended license.
"They did the right thing,'' Spellacy added. "They dismissed it, he took responsibility for the things he has done which was he didn't have a valid driver's license at the time, and then a second case that was months, months, months later, he had (speeded) and he pled to that.''
Callaway, selected by Cleveland out of Florida in the fourth round of the 2018 draft, started 11 games last year, compiling 43 catches for 586 yards and five touchdowns.

As Trump turned to Democrats for a second time in two weeks, Republicans were left stunned while his base howled in anger. What is his strategy?
"He likes us," Chuck Schumer said. "He likes me, anyway."
The Democratic minority leader, talking with glee to his Republican counterpart Mitch McConnell, was caught by a live microphone on the Senate floor. Schumer continued: "Here's what I told him: I said, 'Mr President, you're much better off if you can sometimes step right and sometimes step left. If you have to step just in one direction, you're boxed.' He gets that."

The Kingsport community is invited to share their input for a Public Art Master Plan via a quick 5-minute survey. The link to the survey is at the bottom of this release.
In addition, a discussion session to help plan for future public art ideas is planned for Thursday, May 10, at 4:00 p.m. in room 310 of the Kingsport Renaissance Center.
The city's public art program was created in 2006, and includes a 'Percent for Art' Ordinance and established a Public Art Committee. The Committee created Sculpture Walk in 2007 and has annually exhibited contemporary outdoor sculpture for over 10 years. Over the years, several sculptural pieces have been purchased or commissioned for Kingsport and more recently, murals have been added to help celebrate the community.
"In 2017, the Office of Cultural Arts organized two temporary public art installations, Humanae and Rise Together Kingsport," said Bonnie Macdonald, director of the Office of Cultural Arts. "Now it is time to work on a new plan of action and we want the whole city to share their creative ideas!"
The public is encouraged to fill out the survey and attend the discussion session.
For more information, please visit EngageKingsport.com or call 423-392-8414.

Fitting wooden floors safely over under floor heating is simple and effective if some basic rules are followed.Prior to installation Turgon's basic site conditions must be met before the floor is installed, these are the same site conditions that we insist on for the installation of all our hardwood floors with a few additions specifically for wooden floors fitted over under floor heating. The basic site conditions are as follows:
• Air relative humidity should be at a stable point between 40-60 %.
• Moisture content of the walls must not exceed 8% Air temperature should be no less than 13 degrees C and the general operating environment should be between 18-24 degrees C.
• All wet trades such as plaster, terrazzo and floor tiling should be completed and dry before wood floors are installed.
• Windows must be glazed and outside doors hung before wooden floors are installed.
• New buildings or extensions should be adequately ventilated and heated for at least 10 days before wood floors are installed.
• All radiator and water pipes should be subjected to a water test before installation of wood floors.
• Any sub floor must be smooth and flat to within +/ 3mm over a 3 metre radius.
• Concrete sub floors must be sound and not loose.
• Wooden sub floors must be sound and securely fixed.
• Moisture content of wooden sub floors must be between 8-10 % and within 4% of your hardwood floor to avoid over expansion or contraction.
• Moisture content of concrete screeds must be no greater than 75% relative humidity.
• A DPM must be incorporated below any screeded surface. The additional conditions for wooden floors fitted over under floor heating:
• Hot water under floor heating systems must be fully commissioned and pressure tested prior to fitting of the hardwood floor.
• Any under floor heating system must be calibrated to restrict the surface floor temperature to a maximum of 27 degrees centigrade.
• Under floor heating systems both hot water and electric must have a floor probe to prevent the surface floor temperature from exceeding 27 degrees centigrade.
• The under floor heating system must be turned off during installation and only turned back on after a minimum of 48 hours after the installation is complete.
• Any wooden floor that is to be fitted over under floor heating must be kiln dried to between 6% - 8% according to BS 8201:2011.
Site conditions at the time of fitting and the environment in which the floor is kept post installation are critical for a successful wooden floor installation, this applies whether you have under floor heating or not.
Wooden floors fitted over under floor heating are in very close proximity to the heat source and are continually heated during the heating season. Your floor literally becomes a giant radiator and your wooden floor is likely to get very dry. There is a direct correlation between the temperature of the air, the moisture content of the air and the moisture content of the wooden floor. You can see this clearly by following the link:emctablecalc.html
Air relative humidity, which has such an effect on the moisture content of your wooden floor is an expression of the amount of moisture the air can hold. In other words it is the amount of water in the air divided by the air's capacity to hold water multiplied by 100 to give you a percentage.
Let's look at an example of how this effects a wooden floor fitted over under floor heating.
Let us assume that the air in the room at chest height is 20 degrees centigrade and has a relative humidity of 50%, perfect conditions for our wooden flooring and according to the chart in the link above we would expect the wood to have a moisture content of 9.2%. However as we approach the heat source which in this case is the wooden floor itself, the air temperature will rise. It is safe to assume that if the wooden floor has a surface temperature of 27 degrees centigrade then the air temperature directly above the wood floor will be close to 27 degrees centigrade. How will the increase in air temperature effect the relative humidity of the air?
We already said that Air RH = Water Content / Water Capacity x 100
Water Capacity increases exponentially with increases in air temperature. At 20 degrees centigrade the water capacity is 14 grams of water per kilo of air, at 27 degrees centigrade this increases to 23 grams of water per kilo of air.
Where air relative humidity is 50% at 20 degrees centigrade we can say that:
- Water Content (7g) / Water Capacity (14g) x 100 = 50% RH
- By increasing the temperature to 27 degrees but not introducing more water the relative humidity drops to 30%.
- Water Content (7g) / Water Capacity (23 grams) x 100 = 30% RH
By holding a wooden floor for prolonged periods with an air relative humidity 30% and an air temperature of 27 degrees centigrade the wooden floor moisture content will drop to 6.1%. This is the reason that British Standards 8201:2011 recommend wooden floors that are to be fitted over under floor heating are kiln dried to 6%8%.
If you fit wood flooring with a moisture content above 8% over under floor heating you must introduce more water content or moisture into the environment to stop the floor drying out. This can be done by installing humidifiers in the property to regulate the air relative humidity.
