Hitting the button "Next" is the name of the game; this is the most probable way that you'll end up finding that cool person that can be your online friend.

I personally liked this more from the developers of Chatroulette because it increases security and a safe environment for people to have online video chat.
You can edit your profile and change settings once you're logged in to Chatroulette. There are options to auto start and auto reconnect with other users on the site.

The post Olx India – Free Classifieds Website appeared first on Daily Techie.]]>
To start shopping on this Free Classifieds website you will have to sign up with an account and a password. This step is necessary, in order for the shoppers to be able to interact with potential sellers. After you successfully completed this step, you can start shopping by choosing the exact location you are doing the shopping from. One can choose a city ranging from Delhi, Bangalore, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai or even Goa.
It is advised for customer to choose a specific region as the ads displayed will cover only people posting from that region only. That way you can save up on the shipment costs as well. After you pre-narrowed you search, users can go on selecting the division they are interested in. OLX India is wonderful because it covers just about everything you can think of. One can find products from the Home and Lifestyle category (which includes Art-Collectibles-Hobbies, Books-Magazines, Pets-Pet Accessories and much more) to Vehicles or Mobile Phones.
After finding your desired sub-category like Cameras and Camera Accessories, shoppers can start viewing the available items. Pictures might be posted within the ad, so you can get an idea of what you are going to purchase. If one has a limited budget on their hand, they can input a specific amount of money they are willing to pay for. The displayed results will cover only that price range. Ads are displayed in a list. Price and the date when the ad was posted are also shown. For more information on the item that appeals to you, click on the name or thumbnail. From the new window that opens you will be able to read more details about the item, and more importantly get the contact details of the person who is selling it. Some sellers even leave their phone numbers on the site. If they haven't you can simply click the Reply this Add button.
What Olx.in brings extra from other websites of the type is that it offers ads for people looking for a job or those looking for a particular service. Looking for a nanny or a tech writer? You should check out the Services section on the website. More than that, the website might prove a cure for those lonely souls looking to fill the voids in their life. The Matrimonial category offers ad sections for those looking a Bride or a Groom.
www.Olx.in basically works on the principle of Ebay and can be considered an Indian alternative to the popular shopping site. However we noticed that there's no system of ranking the sellers, so there's always the risk that the person behind the ad might turn out to be a fake. Discretion is advised!

The post Download Mozilla Thunderbird – Free Email Client appeared first on Daily Techie.]]>
Mozilla became known in the tech world after introducing the free web browser Firefox, that ran smoothly without the bumps and the lags that we were accustomed to with the good old Internet Explorer. The Mozilla Firefox Internet browser was first launched for the public on February 23, 1998. The team behind the project was coordinated by Jamie Zawinski. Over the years, the company diversified its software portfolio bringing forth the Firefox OS for mobile, Bugzilla and Thunderbird.
Thunderbird is an open source email and chat client (in the vein of Outlook if you will) dedicated to bringing users a safe, stable and most importantly customizable email experience. Thunderbird comes available for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux and can be downloaded in every language imaginable from Armenian and Finnish to the obscure Asturian.
1) Download Mozilla Thunderbird
2) Download Mozilla Thunderbird for Mac, Linux and in other languages
To first get started with the software, users will need to download it off the official site and run the application. As soon as the program is launched, users will have to fill in the details of their email account. Which brings us to the Thunderbird interface.
As expected (of Mozilla) the interface is clean and every feature is tabbed in order to provide the best available access. Browsing through the tabs one will discover a multitude of options. The most crucial for an email client is the Write tab. Obviously here is where you type in your message, but you also get extra features like the possibility of performing a Spelling check. Like in Yahoo! Mail address auto completion is available.
The Junk tab is the equivalent of the Spam found in Yahoo. But Thunderbird is a bit cleverer than your average email client. It learns. Once you begin marking certain emails as spam, it will start efficiently recognizing which email belongs in Junk and which doesn't. And it does so, quite effectively.
Like other email clients Thunderbird supports the creation of local folders, to help you organize the information contained in your inbox better. The Sent and Trash feats are also present.
Thunderbird allows users to add colored tags to emails, so you can identify them faster. The only problem is that tagged messages are not displayed in batch as the Flagged ones do in Yahoo! Mail for example. This might be considered a little step back, if you can't remember the date of the message you are searching for. Tags are only helpful when you search your inbox.
Thunderbird offers unique and extremely useful features, but sometimes they are quite hard to discover. For example the FileLink feat allows users to create live links connecting their inbox with file-sharing services, thus allowing big size files to be sent back and forth. But File Link supports only services no one heard of by default like Box or YouSendit. To be able to by-pass the file sharing limit of mail clients, users need to go to the Add-on section and enable the Dropbox one, for example.
However if you are willing to close on eyes to the insufficiencies of Thunderbird , the service works quite fast and is very reliable. On top of that the company is constantly working to update it and better the existing version.

Some of the popular Social networking, Video streaming websites that you can unblock using the mentioned new proxy sites are:
Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, DailyMotion, MySpace, Ebay, Hotmail, Gmail and Meebo.

Blocking websites at Schools, colleges and Work are done for a reason, it's simply because they deem the blocked sites as against the work policy or they assume that your productivity level would go down. On a larger scale a website might be blocked by your Government because of all the reasons that they can come up with.

Does the Job
Linda from Grants Pass, OR– Verified Buyer
My small dining room has an odd alcove next to the fireplace, too narrow and too shallow for a traditional sideboard. This wine rack fits in with a couple of inches to spare in all dimensions. I'm going to top it with white Kashmir granite left over from making our dining table. VoilÃ, a sideboard plus wine and glass rack. The product was easy to assemble (did it all myself) and fits together in a clever way. It's stable and handsome. I could wish the glass rack held glasses with wider bottoms, but I really wouldn't want my best crystal exposed, anyway. This is fine for everyday.
Laurie from Ventura, CA– Verified Buyer
Pros: Very strong, sturdy, attractive wood. Good for small or corner space.
Well made and handsome
Sharon from Southern Pines, NC– Verified Buyer
This excellent rack when assembled is both solid and handsome. It holds enough bottles of wine in its smallest version to satisfy most households. The wine glass hangers at the top of the rack are stable and easily accessible. The only problem I found is that the hangers do not accommodate 3.5" stem bases. So I had to downsize my wine glasses and improvise a place for the larger ones.
Elisabeth from Chesterfield, VA– Verified Buyer
I needed a wine rack with certain dimensions for our kitchen and this was absolutely perfect! It is well made and looks great! Thanks!
Nice item for the price
David from South Dennis, MA– Verified Buyer
Quality is good. Onside ring the price. Easy to assemble.

Chief state health official addresses island medical board
New Block Island Health Services Executive Director Barbara Baldwin introduced Dr. Michael Fine, director of the Rhode Island Department of Health, at the BIHS meeting Wednesday, February 6. About 20 residents, including Town Council members, attended the meeting.
Fine addressed the difficulties medical providers confront in the face of a byzantine insurance system, and offered ideas to address the situation.
Fine, who has held his post since July 2011, spoke of the importance of BIHS to the local community, and to the state and country as well, since it serves as a model.
"We are an unusual country: We have health care, but no health care system. We need to organize services better. What you do here is so incredibly important. You've figured out how to provide services to all," Fine said, decrying the high cost of health care in the country.
He noted the difficulty of running a primary care practice, with "its multiple payers, growing multiple demands and changeable medical environment." He added that these pressures put a "huge strain and drain on primary care providers."
Fine explained that fewer young doctors were going into primary care; rather most went into internal medicine and pediatrics and "headed for specialties."
Board secretary Kay Lewis explained: "We are very challenged here. We have 1,000 year-round residents. We are running a primary care practice and emergency care in summers [for an expanded population]."
Fine added, "And you don't have a pharmacy or a hospital." Lewis said that the island had the support of a fine local rescue squad and of Life Star.
Lewis said patient fees were unable to cover expenses at the island's Medical Center, and that the board must "struggle each year to close the gap." She asked Fine if he saw anything on the horizon that might help the local facility.
Fine said the way the health care system currently worked, with the multiple insurers competing, resulted in a huge burden for medical practices: "For everyone who walks through the door, you have to find a different way to do the billing."
Primary Care Trust
Fine has advocated that the state move toward a primary care trust, a system set up to take the place of ordinary insurance and organized to provide funding for general practitioners. Trusts promote the development of primary care practices that offer state residents inclusive "community-based, multi-disciplinary primary care practices."
In a question and answer session, Fine said that eventually many hospitals — many of which were already losing revenue — would close as a result of "medical evolution, which is the outcome of improvements in health care, preventive care and in medical technology."
He said if there were three or more health centers within a population center, "you reduce the necessity of going to emergency rooms." He added the idea was to "pull funding for primary care out of insurances and into a trust."
Asked about Accountable Care Organizations, Fine said, "ACOs would be collaborative; they would take the bulk of the money to be spent on each person and would contract with home health providers, with specialists and with primary health organizations."
In effect, the move was toward public support for medical care, just as municipalities support schools, police and fire departments. "It's not to argue that private practice in medicine shouldn't continue; most of us think it should."
He stressed, however, that he hadn't gone to medical school "to create bills for insurance companies, but to take care of people."
Nancy Greenaway, former BIHS director, said, "Thank you for appreciating the value of the medical center. It was intended to serve people of all means and all ages. We worked with the state, and yours is the first voice acknowledging this work." Fine returned thanks to Greenaway for her efforts.
Speaking of Rhode Island's Health Department, Fine said it had been very successful in immunizing against sexually transmitted diseases, influenza and childhood diseases. He pointed out that Rhode Island is the only state that purchases all its vaccines and distributes them to practitioners. As a result, he said, "We have the best immunization rate in the country!"
Electronic medical records
Following Fine, former interim director Peter Baute made a presentation on the center's move toward electronic medical record keeping (EMR). At this point, two members of the board, Sue Hagedorn and Bob Fallon joined the meeting through speaker phone hook-ups.
"The old system is not efficient," Baute said, crediting the Medical Center staff with doing the preliminary developmental work on EMR. He gave the examples of relevant patient information being immediately available to health care providers, including medical histories, medical allergies, vital signs, lab test results, etc.
"Better organization leads to better medical care," Baute added. He also said that adopting such a system was mandatory to meet eligibility criteria for the Medicare incentive program.
"If we had achieved 'meaningful use' in 2012, we would have received $44,000," Baute said. "Now, if we achieve it by December 31, 2013, we'll receive $39,000. The longer we wait, the less we'll be eligible for."
"Meaningful use," as defined by the federal government, is a "set of standards that governs the use of electronic health records and allows eligible providers to earn incentive payments by meeting specific criteria."
In addition to eligibility for Medicare incentives, achieving meaningful use for the local center would assure grants of $3,000 from the Rhode Island Quality Institute, $2,000 from Blue Cross and $1,500 from United Health Care.
Baute said if the center didn't meet criteria for meaningful use in establishing EMR, it would be subject to penalties from Medicare and Blue Cross in the form of lower reimbursements.
Federal guidelines establish that eligibility is predicated only on physicians achieving meaningful use, a policy that precludes nurse practitioners from doing so. Reached after the meeting, Baldwin said she found the national policy troubling, as it seemed to place limitations on services nurse practitioners could provide. Baldwin planned to look further into the issue.
After investigating several software options, Baute said he and the staff were inclined to go with Amazing Charts, which would require a one-time fee of $2,000 for licensing, a $1,900 annual fee for support and maintenance, $49 for KidsNet, an immunization interface, and several other nominal interface costs.
When Baute described how patient records would be transferred to an electronic system, he generated a lively response from audience members. He suggested that the staff might ask members of the board with medical backgrounds to assist in making the transfers.
Audience member Gerry Comeau said that as much as she respected board members she didn't want her medical files to be seen by them. Others in the audience clearly agreed. Board member Shannon Morgan suggested patients could be notified and their wishes determined beforehand. After considerable back and forth, the discussion ended with general agreement that they might have to look for other solutions to the problem.
Baute asked the board for its approval in making the selection of the software program. After much discussion the board voted to make a final decision at its next meeting.
Management agreement
Because Second Warden Ken Lacoste, the town-appointed member of the medical board, had to recuse himself, only five board members were present to vote on a management agreement reached by the town and BIHS. Without a quorum, that decision was also tabled for the next meeting.
The next board meeting is scheduled for February 25.

Harrison's film study could produce sacks
Harrison's film study could produce sacks
By Mark Kaboly
Thursday, October 14, 2010
James Harrison admittedly is never overly interested in watching game film, especially of an upcoming opponent.
However, he might change his ways this week, especially after hearing about the success Atlanta's John Abraham had against Harrison's arch-nemesis last week in Cleveland left tackle Joe Thomas.
Abraham had two sacks against Thomas, a three-time Pro Bowler, and pressured Cleveland quarterback Jake Delhomme into an interception during the Browns' 20-10 loss to the Falcons.
Thomas, who has started all 53 games since his rookie year in 2007, allowed one sack last year.
Abraham said he was able to use a bull rush and also use an inside rush to beat Thomas on a number of occasions two of Harrison's specialties.
So, will Harrison incorporate what worked for Abraham on how he attacks Thomas this week?
"I do what I do," said Harrison, who has more sacks than any AFC player over the past two-plus seasons. "Who knows? We'll see."
Harrison has 37 1/2 sacks since taking over the starting right outside linebacker spot in 2007, but has been able to record only a half-sack against Thomas in five career meetings.
Thomas shut out Harrison the past two years in the sack department and has taken him out of the games almost completely. Harrison had only nine tackles in two games last year against Thomas.
"He does well," Harrison said about Thomas.
Add that the two have had their differences, and it adds to the matchup. Thomas accused Harrison of flopping during the past two contests last year. Thomas was called for two holding penalties all last year - both came against Harrison.
"No disrespect to the other guys they did a phenomenal job but we are a better ballclub when he is on the game. So it's great to have him out there and we're moving forward."

President Pranab Mukherjee will inaugurate the centenary session of the Indian Science Congress here on Thursday in the presence of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, six Nobel laureates and a gamut of eminent national and international scientists and thousands of delegates from different sections of society.
Describing it as a "momentous event", West Bengal Governor and chairperson of the Host Committee of the event, M.K. Narayanan, said its significance is not only that the Science Congress has surpassed 100 years but that it is the first time that a serving Prime Minister is its general president.
Mr. Narayanan said it is also the first time that the Prime Minister will chair a panel discussion on the event's theme, 'Science for Shaping the Future of India'. Referring to the distinguished participants, Union Minister of Science & Technology S. Jaipal Reddy said all the scientists will contribute through lectures and papers to make the centenary session a "glorious and memorable occasion".
Scientists and Nobel laureates such as Venki Ramakrishnan, Ei-ichi Negishi and Abel Prize winner Mathematician S.R. Srinivasa Varadhan are among those who will participate.
Central Science & Technology Secretary T. Ramasami said about 14,000 delegates will participate in the five-day event. The number of papers and abstracts that will be presented during the Science Congress has crossed 8,000.
"All the plenary sessions and the technical sessions have been named after people who have made contributions to science from the country," Dr. Ramasami said.
He added that all nine science departments and councils under the Government of India will showcase their programmes and hold public outreach sessions.
Organisers of the Science Congress said about 70 scientists from 20 countries which include members of the Royal Society, UK, and the US Academy of Sciences will participate in the event.
Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee will unveil a book, 'The Balancing Act', which is an autobiographical account of 21 eminent women scientists and their scientific pursuits.

Windstorm insurance reserves facing big risk
With 60 percent of the county's residences in pool, how much longer can we gamble?
The 2007 hurricane season is only a few weeks from winding down, but the problem of insuring property along the Texas coast from windstorms is nearing Category 5. The number of policyholders in the state's windstorm insurance pool is now so large that if a catastrophic storm hit the coast, the pool would be overwhelmed, the pool's officials say. That means that waiting for the next Texas Legislature in 2009, two full hurricane seasons away, will be risky business.
House and Senate conferees came close to finding a solution in the waning days of this year's legislative session, but, true to the Legislature's history of attention deficit, the measure never got to the floor as the fight over the House leadership of Tom Craddick took precedence as time ran out. If there was progress, it was in accepting the idea that bonds, with risk shared by coastal and inland counties, offer a way to shore up the windstorm's over-exposed fund. But delay won't make the problem get better.
In fact, the overexposure of the windstorm pool is getting worse, almost by the month, as more private insurers drop windstorm coverage for property owners in Texas' 14 coastal counties. Allstate Insurance, for one, has already announced it is dropping windstorm insurance in any new coverage and in its renewals.
The Texas Windstorm Insurance Association, created by the state after Hurricane Celia hit Corpus Christi in 1970, is expected to have about 220,000 policies in force by the end of the year. But the core of the problem is the risk exposure to loss. That risk exposure in Nueces County now stands at $1.5 billion, reflecting the increasing investment in coastal properties. Yet, as private insurers retreat from the coast, more property owners are being forced into the windstorm pool. In Nueces County, as of the end of September, 38,374 policies -- 64 percent of all residential policies -- were in the state pool. That's an increase of more than 10 percent since May.
Individual homeowners, in the event of a major storm, would be protected. But the impact on the state's insurance system, as well as the state's economic structure, would be powerful. Beyond the windstorm association's reserves of some $100 million, the insurer can fall back on its reinsurance policy and, eventually, by charging the state's insurance companies. That last step would be felt across the state because those companies would be allowed to take those charges in state tax credits over several years, which would mean a hit on the state budget.
How long can the state continue taking the risk of an overextended windstorm insurance pool? With about six weeks left in the 2007 hurricane season, the state may have escaped being hit by a major category storm for this year, though Tropical Storm Erin in August, which swamped San Antonio, parts of Central Texas and Houston and killed seven people, gave a deadly indication of the fury of the tropical storms.
Erin also underlined the fact that hurricanes and tropical storms aren't just a threat to coastal areas. If the complex of refineries, chemical plants, ports and industrial infrastructure along the coast is hit by a major storm, as well as the loss of revenue from tourism, all of Texas will feel the effect though a storm cloud may never appear over most inland Texans.
That message may have hit home among the members of the Texas Legislature, with the agreement to use bonds that would be financed, before a hurricane, by policyholders along the coast, and, post-event, by policyholders in the rest of Texas. But, as with so many other issues, Texas usually only acts when a crisis forces it. Does that mean that Texas must roll the dice through two more hurricane seasons before the opportunity to act in the 2009 Texas Legislature? Can Texas afford to take that gamble?

I've been ghosted again, by two different men. One was supposed to email me monday for a meeting after work on Weds (this from an email on Friday that he said he would get back to me no later then monday) I so not going to drop everything to go out tomorrow without any plans set until the last minute.

My take with online dating is that if you look good in the photo and the essentials match on the profile (e.g. height, some interests, etc.) then I'd contact the woman.
Now AFTER the contact and the guy ghosts then it has nothing to do with the profile.
If you are following the OLD rules of no extended or prolonged email-text-IM exchanges before phone and/or meeting then it's a numbers game and the demographics (where you live, how old you are, you life situation).
As a guy, I have found I get a 10% response rate from my first time OLD messages. The percentage goes down to actually meeting the woman.
I look to meet the woman ASAP to determine chemistry, etc. for it does not matter how intellectually compatible we are, it is that face-to-face experience.
Good luck,

Why on earth do you think there is anything wrong with YOU?
Chances are really good that these guys chicken out because what they truly have to offer doesn't match their profile in some way. It is far more likely there is something wrong with THEM.

sorry, that's the only way I know how to post it, it worked fine for me when I clicked it, maybe the site was down when you tried (match has been having issues this week)
Sooobig, thanks for the encouragement!

This stuff happened to me all the time. I'd have guys ask for my number and never hear from them again, but they were still on line. Some are just playing, some change their minds, some are just jerks and like jerking people around.
I'm seeing someone now I met on OLD. He said women do the same thing, so it's not just guys who do it. He found OLD to be soul crushing, so there ARE men out there who are sincere.
But believe me, I think I had about 40 first dates in the last two years courtesy of OLD. Three lead to something that lasted more than one date, but each of them wound up being guys who dumped me, and in spectacular ways. ALL of them were constantly "looking" even after we were seeing each other over the course of months.
It's hard...it's a convenient way to meet people, but there is a set of rules that go along with OLD that seem to promote ghosting and disposing of people (the "date three at once" rule that seems pervasive)
|Fri, 04-02-2010 - 8:26am
You might want to supplement OLD with Meetups.com
They have activity groups for singles, as well as groups open to anyone. You will find more men at the outdoors groups such as kayaking, hiking, bicycling, etc. A surprisingly large amount
|Fri, 04-02-2010 - 9:56am
I think by the nature of OLD where it's gives the illusion of instant availability so it's like catalog shopping. We can view from pages of potential partners thinking we can pick and choose anyone off the site.
The sites give the impression that just because I have that choice then I can *have* that woman and if not then I can just choose another one.
I think the constant looking may be an age-related thing too. I believe the younger the population the higher tendency is to do that. I may be wrong about that. Those of you women in your late 40s or 50s can contradict me if you wish.
Plus it is easier to hide behind a computer rather than engage in real life.

Dating years ago and today is a big difference!
A lot of factors: how old you are,where you live,(GDU?) ,supposed interests,how many others have answered the ad etc.
My grandmother's rule: be seen,be seen,be seen! Are you going to where there are men? Are you approachable? Did you come with a gaggle of girls or you best male buddy? Did you include your kids in the photos?
Also what was you self description? If it was anything like your handle here I can see why they are not repeating. It reads as"you are not important", you are here too support me and the boys.

Bob Wakeman Bigcatfish - Sep 26, 2012
You don't know me and biscuits.LOL..
Tammy Green TammyQueensKitchen - Sep 26, 2012
Go to your local supermarket, buy the pilsbury Boy Country buiscuit pack. They come in a pack of 4. It costs about $3.00's.
Make a circle out of each pattie of the biscuits or just leave it as is to make mama sweet biscuits. Try to make the rings as thin as possbile and remove the center to make doughnuts. Drop in hot cooking oil 30 seconds on both side and use the topping of your cravings, fresh fruit, whipped cream, chocolate colored apples etc.

This I can do. Thanks for the heads up.

Thank you all for the nice comments.

I grew up very near Dolly Parton in East Tennessee, near the city in which the nuclear bomb was developed.
I haven't lived there in 32 years, but the accent clings like a barnacle.
^I have nothing but fond memories for the Smokies. Beautiful place; I still remember the topography very well. I still have a scar on my left knee from bicycling around Cades Cove in 1971.
I'm glad you enjoyed yourself there, Neo. (BTW, you looked especially handsome in your picture taken there. I guess your inner happiness showed through on the picture.)
Anyway, back to topic (or we'll get in trouble)....
Thanks to My Foxy Lady for pointing me this direction again.
Fun to hear what everyone sounds like.
Maybe some day I will get up the courage and the quiet surroundings to record something.

Johann, you do have a very mellifluous voice.
I work (via phone) with a sassy lady from the back hills of Tennessee who's called Charlotte her home for many a year.
Her Tennessee twang still comes through loud and clear - she's a great lady.
I used to work with people from all around the country, and really enjoy listening to different accents and mannerisms.
And I know, if I'll only be true, to this glorious quest . . .
I've never heard your voice, kevbo, but it sounded PRECISELY how I imagined it.
I pity tha foo that clicks on this! http://vocaroo.com/i/s0hyFvbvovhR
Since I haven't done one in a while, here you be.
Lex! That voice! :O
I get that a lot. But oddly, only when people hear my voice without seeing me. I don't know if I somehow fake the announcer voice when I'm on the phone or doing stuff like this. But in person, nobody seems to think anything much of my voice. But no, I didn't take diction lessons. And no, I didn't go to broadcast school, or have a communications degree.
^It sure sounds like you did, Lex. I envy the fact that you have the natural ability to do that.
I experimented with those breathing techniques a little bit. It involves slowing the rate of your exhale, in order to stroke the voice muscles a certain way, very similar to the way a bow moves across the string on a violin.
It might serve very well as a project for somebody who wants a new discipline to learn.

Keep this man in your prayers!
From Arkansas Catholic:
Dr. Joseph Chan, 48, a second-year theology student from Fort Smith, has a message for all who have been praying for his recovery following his March car wreck.
"Thank you all for your support and prayers," he said. "It is the people of God who inspire me to where I am now in my recovery. Thank you."
Communicating via e-mail with Arkansas Catholic, Chan also said that he hopes to return to his studies at St. Meinrad Seminary in Indiana and resume his march toward priestly ordination in the Diocese of Little Rock.
"I hope to be able to continue my seminary studies, realistically, in the spring of 2014," he said. "I have slowly accepted God's will in my life. Prayer and hope and that sense of purpose, and the global power of prayer and love from all the faithful, inspire me to keep going."
Chan suffered multiple injuries in a one-car crash outside of Rolla, Mo., March 10. The accident left him with multiple musculoskeletal fractures and traumatic injuries, traumatic brain injury, internal abdominal and pelvic hemorrhage, hearing loss and visual changes. Since the accident, he has undergone more than 15 surgeries and procedures at Mercy Hospital St. Louis.
Following the battery of operations, Chan has received treatment for nearly three months, gradually transitioning to skilled nursing care and rehabilitation at Mercy Rehabilitation Hospital St. Louis in Chesterfield, Mo.
The latter phase entailed an intensive regimen of three-hour rehab sessions, six days a week. During this period, he relearned how to stand, walk with a walker and perform other functions as well as daily living activities. He completed the acute rehab regimen June 14 and now moves into outpatient self-rehabilitation exercise phase, something that may be a part of life from now on.
"They say that we all rehabilitate for a lifetime since the brain is so dynamic and we learn everyday," he said.
Before joining the seminary in 2010, Chan was an internist trained in hospice and palliative care medicine. He was scheduled to be ordained a priest in 2015.

Cultivating Women's Leadership Trainings (CWL)
These 6‐day residential intensives bring together impassioned women from diverse cultures, ages, and backgrounds to learn from and with each other. Rooted in values of respect, humility, creativity, intentionality and inquiry, CWL trainings develop women's leadership by:
- Featuring experiential learning and transformative leadership practices including arts, ritual, movement and storytelling that help connect the personal with the structural, systemic and political
- Consciously shedding insidious beliefs, stories and biases that can limit women's leadership capacity and considering new ideas, narratives or frameworks in their stead
- Surfacing and appreciating what women uniquely bring to reinventing leadership while integrating healthy feminine and masculine characteristics for full‐spectrum leadership
- Prioritizing connecting across differences as an essential leadership skill
- Connecting women to networks of diverse peers for ongoing coaching, influence, access and support
Emphasis is placed on: practices for skill‐building and leadership cultivation; strengthening both gender and racial justice lenses and analyses; making visible the legacy of imbalance reflected in our decision‐making, organizations, and society at large; and connecting towards collaboration across cultural divides, siloes and differences. Each cohort of 20 women is selected for their significant capacities to influence change in their communities and also to optimize diversity, with at least 30% women of color.
Participants come to:
- clarify their own sense of purpose, calling or unique 'assignment'
- embody new forms of leadership and self‐identity
- integrate the wisdom of nature and their own intuition
- embrace a whole‐person approach, integrating emotions, embodiment and spirituality as well as shadow material
- learn skills to further their own and others' ongoing leadership cultivation, and experience how deeply, rapidly and enduringly women in a community of peers can grow each other's capacity and effectiveness
The program's uniqueness is in its systemic or intersectional approach to leadership. Rather than focusing on either internal work or skill‐building for external change, CWL connects personal awareness practices with increased capacity to be bold and effective multi‐cultural leaders in the world. Alumnae report lasting and profound impacts, including many who have had extensive prior leadership experience. You can hear their own words here.

Because the designer's flagship store looks and feels more like his living room than the home base of his business, especially since you're likely to run into Reid himself, who keeps his design studio on the second floor of the building. It is as much an embodiment of Reid's patina-ed southern charm as the clothes themselves.
