A new support group has been set up for Sheffield families affected by knife crime.
Sheffield firm Stay Safe Security has launched the group as part of its 'Keep Sheffield Stainless' knife crime campaign.
APPEAL: Driver who left 'loving' volunteer for dead in Sheffield fatal hit and run still at large
The security firm launched its campaign in the wake of a series of stabbings in the city earlier this year, including a number of which proved fatal.
The firm said its campaign is 'to help reduce knife crime' and 'support communities with what they are faced with during these violent times'.
CRIME: Teens arrested in Sheffield murder probe 'released under investigation'
It offers a free knife collection and disposal service in and around Sheffield, with the firm claiming that reducing the number of kitchen knives in homes will make it easier for people to keep track of where their blades are.
The company also offers a free knife crime workshop, which aims to give an understanding of knife crime along with sentencing and statistics. The workshops also offer advice on how to treat a knife wound and how to manage conflict before incidents escalate out of control.
The new support group is aimed at creating 'a safe and friendly environment to share experiences, feelings, coping strategies and to reduce isolation'.
APPEAL: Masked man threatened staff with knife during terrifying robbery at Rotherham shop
Stay Safe Security said: "As knife crime and violence increases in our city, so does the devastating effects on the community, families, friends and victims.
"Who supports the community to bring it back together? Who advises the families and friends of lost ones how to cope? Who provides a place for victims to go where they feel safe?
"We are offering a free support group for people that have been affected by knife crime.
"The group aims to create a safe and friendly environment to share experiences, feelings, coping strategies and to reduce isolation."
Meetings are to be held every month.
There have been eight fatal stabbings in Sheffield so far this year.

Asbestos Exposure Linked To Doll Manufacturers
The first uses of asbestos date back thousands of years, but it wasn't until the 20th century that its use became rampant not only because of its versatility, but also because of the mineral's unique characteristics; it's durable, heat resistant, and abundant. Occupational exposure to this carcinogen is one of the main contributing factors in those who are suffering from asbestos-related illnesses such as lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. Steelworkers, chemical plant workers, tradesmen, and even those who worked in shipyards were most likely exposed to asbestos due to the nature of their work, but as time has gone on, asbestos-related illnesses have been found to have surfaced in unique occupations.
A recent study published in La Medicinia del lavoro noted evidence of possible asbestos exposure at two doll manufacturing companies after three women were diagnosed with pleural epithelial mesothelioma. These three women initially had their asbestos exposure classified as "unknown" because occupational exposure is unlikely; women are more likely to be exposed to asbestos through bystander exposure. However, an autopsy revealed that one of the women showed a concentration of amphibole fibers of 12,000,000 per gram of dry lung tissue and that the other two victims were assumed to have similar exposure. The exposure is now believed to have originated in the fabric that was used to make cloth dolls. Textile workers often experience high rates of asbestos exposure because fabric was often spun using raw asbestos fibers.
After this discovery, the woman's mesothelioma was reclassified to "occupational certified."
This isn't the first unique profession that has found a link to asbestos exposure. Earlier this year, the American Journal of Medicine noted the number of dentists who have been diagnosed with an asbestos-related illness, linking their exposure to a number of dental products, including dental tape. Many workers, like those in the doll factory and in the dental profession were unaware they were even handling asbestos products.
Even though asbestos is banned in most countries and heavily regulated in the United States, its negative health effects continue to plague society since there is a latency period of 10 to 40 years between asbestos exposure and illness. Past exposure, no matter how little, can put you at risk for developing mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis.
If you are suffering from lung cancer and you believe you could have been exposed to asbestos, contact the attorneys at Goldberg, Persky & White. For over 30 years, GPW has specialized in asbestos law and can help pinpoint exactly where your asbestos exposure occurred. Our extensive exposure evidence can help you get the compensation you deserve. Call today at 1-800-Complex or contact us via our web form below.

Google map issue
jlisburn replied to Kevin Cheesman's topic in LayoutsThanks for the side panel params, I didn't realize it was needed at the beginning of the string
Complex Trainer availabilty logic
jlisburn replied to jlisburn's topic in RelationshipsHi, thanks, 1. Yep, they tell us which trainers can be used, then we need to find the availability (dates) of those trainers. 2. 'From - to' limit - kind of, there is a default period in which we'd be looking (next 7-30 days or so) I was thinking to break things up by Business Week? Unless I have an availability table, I'll have to search multiple tables in order to build up a picture of when the trainer is unavailable; and then from that extrapolate, the other days are when he is available (Show Omitted records kinda-thing) So I'd be looking at a virtual list? Jumping from table to table to collect 'bad' dates and then parsing through them to report the good dates? Thanks again
Complex Trainer availabilty logic
jlisburn posted a topic in RelationshipsPart of my solution needs to advise users which are 'good' days to book particular trainers, and which are 'bad'. (Good or bad depends on distance from trainers home and whether the trainer can train that product.) (I've built a matrix of post codes -> Regions and have a join table vs Trainer (i.e. Trainer A likes region A, Trainer A doesn't like Region B, Trainer hates Region C etc) (I also have a 'suitability' join table of trainers to products) My issue then becomes relating which days these trainers are not otherwise occupied or on holiday/sick/PD etc) I can't see past having to create an 'availability' table with every day, every trainer, AM/PM combo possible, and deleting them as they are booked (or book holidays, PD) but this seems inefficient.... .... but then (if I have a sick days table, vacation table etc) I can't wrap my head around what kind of query/calculation/script I'd use to generate my answer (I'm guessing I need something SQL-like). Q: Given this region and this product which days are trainers ideally available? A: ideally would be a list of 'good' days, for which appropriate trainers are available - delivered as a Text Tool seen when hovering over a repeating field of 'suggested' dates the user is then gonna send to a client Thanks for any help
Many thanks, that works on a nice clean example file but not in my solution (I'm also calculating other variant attributes in my result string ) so my issue must lie elsewhere. Thanks again for your help.
Thanks for your help on this, but I'm not sure I'm with you: Some courses require a Wallet card be issued (and not a Cert- "NO cert"), some courses require a Wall Certificate be used (and not a Card- "NO card). Some don't care and either a Wall Cert or a Wallet Card may be issued (CARD or CERT) Some courses don't allow for anything to be issued (NO card/cert) So I have four potential results from the state of my two value check box: one value, the other, neither or both. Sounds like I'm way better off with two fields: CertY/N and CardY/N Thanks again
Thanks, My bad, mistake in my original post, what I'm after is when: CardWallCert = "Wallet Card" and CardWallCert = "Wall Certificate", I want it to return "CARD or CERT" Which is the bit I can't get: Case ( IsEmpty ( CardWallCert ) ; "NO card/cert, " ; CardWallCert = "Wallet Card" and CardWallCert = "Wall Certificate" ; "CARD or CERT" ; CardWallCert = "Wall Certificate" ; "NO card, "; CardWallCert = "Wallet Card" ; "NO cert, " ) No joy if both are checked even if i try: Case ( IsEmpty ( CardWallCert ) ; "NO card/cert, " ; CardWallCert = "Wallet Card" and "Wall Certificate" ; "CARD or CERT" ; CardWallCert = "Wall Certificate" ; "NO card, "; CardWallCert = "Wallet Card" ; "NO cert, " ) Same deal - when both values are marked I get nothing returned, instead of "CARD OR CERT" {BTW - I didn't realize you could drop the default result from a Case statement, that's cool. I case it assumes: Return NULL?}
Case Calc based on Check box
jlisburn posted a topic in Value ListsHi, I've got a field (CardWallCert) with a check box which is fed by a value list with entries "Wallet Card" and "Wall Certificate". It describes which are applicable for a given course (there are a number of possible variants ) and every option is potentially possible (Either one, or the other, or both, or neither) I'm trying to textually describe the contents of the check box (and hence the course variant) via a calculation: eg: Case ( IsEmpty ( CardWallCert ) ; "NO card/cert, " ; CardWallCert = "Wallet Card" and CardWallCert = "Wall Certificate" ; "" ; CardWallCert ≠ "Wallet Card" ; "NO card, " ; CardWallCert ≠ "Wall Certificate" ; "NO cert, " ; "" ) I want it to return blank if both WalletCard and WallCert are selected, but it just gives whatever relates to the last option I selected/deselected. No doubt someone with a stronger logic brain than mine can get the desired results, perhaps even with a more concise calc. I'm trying to avoid splitting into two fields (WalletcardYN and WallCertYN) Thanx in advance for any help
Server admin runs Deployment Assistant every time
jlisburn replied to jlisburn's topic in FileMaker Server 11Bad to worse I'm afraid. Ran through the Deployment Wizard and it balked at the Web Server detection phase; it didn't recognize IIS7. Churned out this error Deployment/Configuration error - 13 Configuration returned error 2,506 when configuring the following component: wpe1 I expect I'll find it somewhere. I've found a couple of leads so far that are dead ends... I quit and relaunch my browser having cleared my Java Temp files. Go to login again and wrong UserName and Password, it says, but they are right, just what I'd typed in earlier, same as they were originally. It just says they are wrong. Server is still delivering it's content, I'm just flying blind with no admin console and am not sure how it's all gonna react to a reboot, or system Update or whatever. Looks like I'm facing a reinstall (and drop back to earlier Java version? 24?) of FMS server
Server admin runs Deployment Assistant every time
jlisburn replied to jlisburn's topic in FileMaker Server 11Thanks, that's possible I suppose, (despite everyone being under strict orders not to touch things like that). I notice this morning I have 20 or so instances of the deployment assistant running alongside 20 or so 'Admin Console Locking Error' all listed inside Task Manager 'Applications'. I quit them all and now I've made it worse. Now when I launch the admin console page and I get the response that 'another use is deploying FM server', even if there's no window showing anyone doing so.. Thanks g40sty, I guess I've no choice but to bounce the server and run through the deployment process
Server admin runs Deployment Assistant every time
jlisburn posted a topic in FileMaker Server 11I have a FM 11 Server Adv which has been in Production for over a year, sitting on Win 2k8 R2. I have real problems with Server Admin. It used to just not launch, despite having updated FMS to re: the Java issue. Now, every time I launch Server Admin The Deployment Assistant starts. I don't want to complete it in case I mess something up and bring the server down - it's serving it's DBs just fine, I just can't check logs or changing things using the Java GUI. Any ideas why the Deployment Assistant is behaving like its a new server, when it's working quite happily. How can I launch Server Admin without the DA starting? Oh, I've run the latest Java updates and still no dice, same deal

As Vail Valley Real Estate Agents, part of our job is maintaining our listings on Trulia, Zillow and other syndicated web sites. Here are some items we have noticed when dealing with these syndicators:
"Zestimates" range from inaccurate to the laughably off the mark. So much so, we are having trouble figuring out how they are determined. Part of being a licensed Vail Valley real estate agent is preparing Broker's Price Opinions (BPOs). A well-prepared BPO relies on comparable sales data, market conditions and a look at the home itself. A syndicator's sales data and market information are likely incomplete to begin with, and, to the best of our knowledge, Zillow doesn't visit Vail Valley homes for sale.
Property Information is sometimes inaccurate. As licensed Realtors, we either adhere to a Code of Ethics or lose our license. As members in good standing of our local Multiple Listing Service (MLS), we either provide accurate listing information or pay a fine. Syndicated sites are bound by no such restriction. In fact, under the more-traffic-equals-more-money value system of these web sites, there is absolutely no incentive to provide accurate data – only more of it.
Property Status is often behind the curve. Sometimes, homes listed for sale on Trulia, Zillow and the rest have already been sold. Updates to syndicators can be slow in coming and can sometimes include inaccurate information from outside (and sometimes dated) sources. We have been told it can take as many as nine days for a syndicated listing site to respond to an update. The Rocky Mountain Home Team is unable to vouch for that, as we consider it part of our job to ensure our listings are as up to date as possible no matter where they appear. We owe it to our sellers to do more than wait for Trulia to find our latest price adjustment!
None of this is to say Trulia, Zillow and other syndicators are to be avoided at all costs. (Except their price suggestions – those are to be avoided at all costs!) So long you don't rely on specifics such as exact price, property details, or whether or not that particular home is actually on the market, it is a perfectly acceptable way to "window shop." On the other hand, our own Vail Valley MLS listings search is a 100% free, no obligation way "window shop" Vail Valley Real Estate without worrying about the hassle of inaccurate data.

I've been a bad blogger, so let's back up a few days.
Just in case you're curious, I've continued with all of the Arbonne products I started with. I don't think I explained that. The list of my day's intake of supplements and food is:
- Arbonne Digestion Plus (probiotics and enzymes)
- Abonne Detox Tea (tastes like mint tea)
- Arbonne Energy Fizz Sticks – 1 or 2 (can't live without them!)
- Arbonne Protein Shake Mix – usually chocolate and usually with coconut milk; one for breakfast and one for lunch
- Snacks are usually avocado-related
- Dinner is whatever recipe sounds good
Phase 4 – natural sugars. The Arbonne literature recommends things like honey, agave, and, if you have to, organic cane sugar. I feel like I'm being boring, because I found this, in no way, exciting. I come from a long line of sugar freaks. My grandpa always said "I'm full. Just enough room for dessert." and would then fill a plate with a little of this and a little of that from the desserts hanging around. Our family reunions? 50% food, 50% desserts. Good desserts. It's so crazy that I was not interested in doing the sugar thing. Not curious. Not tempted. Literally, indifferent. If you've been reading along from the beginning, you'll remember the first three days of my detox were crazy challenging because of the sugar addiction. Gnawing hunger regardless of whether I finished eating five minutes earlier or drank a gallon of water. It was ridiculous. Honestly, I don't want to go back to feeling like I need it. It's dumb.
I had a couple of friends over last night, and, after being accused of making them suffer because of my diet, I caved and made some brownies. With all legal stuff. I used a 50/50 mix of organic raw cane sugar and coconut sugar. Lots of chocolate 🙂 and they weren't bad. Not great either. I believe the one who doesn't really like chocolate to begin with said "best brownie I've had all day." Really, smart ass? Go home.
This brings us to Phase 5. Corn, and if there weren't shitty movies in the theater, I would be going there to get some popcorn. However, there ARE shitty, uninteresting movies in the theater right now. OK. To be fair, they're not all shitty. Let's take a break from this Arbonne stuff for a minute and talk movies. I feel like there are movies you HAVE to see in the theater, and there are movies, you should save your money on and watch on Netflix or rent from a Red Box. Animated movies fall in the maybe-if-I-feel-like-it category that lives in the middle of the other two categories. Superhero flicks? I love them, and I want to see them in a theater every time. Side Note: Wonder Woman is coming to theaters in 25 days. Any takers? Movies like "Going in Style" or "Snatched"? Well, yeah, I want to see them, but I can wait. There's nothing I'm going to get in a theater I can't get in my own living room with the added benefit of an optional shower and my favorite sweats EXCEPT the popcorn, of course.
OK, back to the corn. Is it sad I was excited to tell the man at Chipotle to put corn on my burrito bowl? It is, and I was. I was double excited to say, "Yes! Chips would be great." when I got to the end of the counter. I used a few of them like scoops for my burrito bowl. The corn in the bowl was sweet and fantastic. The chips, I could have lived without. I had no reaction at all to the corn, which means I'll be able to enjoy our sweet corn that'll be ready in just a few, short months.
I was pretty surprised by my not liking the corn chips much. They tasted kind of like the brown paper bag they came in, but I know I've had them before and loved them. Things just taste different now, and I crave different things.
I almost forgot!! I weighed in, and I'm down 30, that's THIRTY pounds! In six weeks, people! Also, I've been kind of feeling like getting some time in at the gym, lately, and a friend invited me to a Pound class close to home. Have you ever heard of this? Click here for video evidence that it's a thing. It's fun, and it's hard. I did my best to keep up and lost control of my own legs half-way in. I still can't walk like a normal human. I do a limp with a side of waddle. I recommend not jumping into a class like this without at least doing a little bit of exercise in the six months preceding the class.
OK. That's all I've got. I'll write again in a couple of days. Thanks for reading!

GEAR HEADS was at the 2011 SIA Snow Show this year and we caught up with Hart Skis. Did you know that almost 900 snow sport brands were represented at this years Snow Show? Hart Skis was right in the middle of the action and The Ski Channel got a first hand look from owner Bill Holmberg what they have in store for the 2011-2012 season.
Hart Skis introduced the first metal edged ski back in 1955 and dominated the ski industry holding a 40% market share into the mid sixties. A long time sponsor to the U.S. Freestyle Ski Team, their skis have been synonymous with Olympic success and World Championship medals. Today, they show us that Hart skis are not just for moguls and aerials. With a full line up of skis that 'have something for everyone' including all mountain skis, twin tip park skis, backcountry skis with rocker and the F17 World Cup and F17 Classic skis. Artistic top sheets, cool new designs the kids love and the same durable, quality construction make Hart Skis a key figure in the ski industry once again.
Hart is also committed to earth-friendly practices with such things as using recycled paper and planting an evergreen tree for every pair of skis they make. All skis come with a limited lifetime warranty.

Why you should follow a Gluten Free Diet
Celiac Disease is a medical condition you should be cautious of. It is a digestive disorder that occurs in reaction to foods that contain gluten in them. Your body's immune system reacts with foods containing gluten and causes damage to the small intestines. It is a lifelong disease that has symptoms of abdominal bloating and pain, diarrhea, rapid weight loss, skin rash, and osteoporosis among others. If you have any of those symptoms after eating freshly baked goods or foods, you may have celiac disease.
While no one knows exactly why some people have celiac disease and there is no cure, there is a simple way to keep celiac disease symptoms from recurring; stop eating gluten products. Here are some tips to achieve that:
- Avoid foods and drinks containing wheat, barley, rye, bulgur, semolina, farina, durum, spelt, graham flour and triticale (a cross between wheat and rye).
- Avoid the following foods unless they're labeled as "gluten-free" or made with corn, rice, soy or other gluten-free grain: Breads, cakes and pies, candies, cereals, cookies, crackers, croutons, gravies, oats, pastas, processed lunch meats, salad dressing, sauces, or soups.
Remember that Diet Center is here for you too. We have a Gluten Free Diet program specifically made for people who have celiac disease, contact us for more information about that program.

The premise of the film is rooted in the notion that upward mobility is attached to a "white voice" in the character Cassius "Cash" Green (Lakeith Stanfield), a broke African American telemarketer. His girlfriend Detroit, played masterfully by Tessa Thompson, is a supportive, uncompromising activist that abhors her man's willingness to rise on the backs of other working class people suppressed by an evil corporation.
"Sorry To Bother You," in theaters July 6, is a dark, magical realist satire that delves deep into loyalty, privilege, race relations, and even slave labor in a capitalist society. As the main character, Lakeith encompasses the inner conflict Black people face in America, but the movie takes viewers on one of the wildest rides in recent memory to punctuate these heavy themes.
AllHipHop's Chuck "Jigsaw" Creekmur talked to stars Lakeith and Tessa about the points "Sorry To Bother You Makes," when they have used their "white" voice and more in this exclusive conversation.
"Sorry To Bother You" stars Lakeith Stanfield, Tessa Thompson,Omari Hardwick, Danny Glover, Terry Crews, Patton Oswalt, David Cross, Jermaine Fowler, Steven Yeun, and Armie Hammer. It hits theaters July 6.

How to Turn a Small Yard Into a Huge Showpiece
First impressions are everything. Curb appeal and yard space can be a huge showpiece when putting your home on the market. It's important for homeowners not to underestimate the power of a yard space, even if it's limited in size.
There are plenty of ways to enhance a small yard. From setting a focal point to using reflective materials, tweaking the furnishing scale, accenting with container gardens and layering the light, REALTOR® Magazine gave homeowners tips on how to improve the look of their lots regardless of the size – whether you're preparing to sell your home or just looking to enjoy the space you have in the season of outdoor living, there's a tip for everyone.
Set a Focal Point
Small spaces can benefit from one attention-grabbing feature, like a water fountain or outdoor fireplace. Beyond a physical focal point, you can give your outdoor oasis a descriptive quality that is great to share with potential buyers, friends, family and entertain you while you enjoy it. For example, you can tell them that an area attracts butterflies or hummingbirds, etc. By adding the right types of plants and wild life attractors you'll give your space an extra something.
12806 Meetinghouse Drive presented by Helen Adams Realty's Karen Spell shows how to decorate a small outdoor living space by adding a creative focal point.
514 Louise Avenue presented by Helen Adams Realty's Eric Layne has a pond with water features and furnishing.
Show Off the Green
Pruning plants in a way that results in them becoming more vertical than horizontal and trains the plant to grow up rather than out, and you can benefit a smaller space. Containers or vertical walls of plants are other ways to save space while still showing off the yard's natural features, and giving you the garden you didn't think you had room for.
Use Outdoor Reflections
Interior designers explained to REALTOR® Magazine that hanging an outdoor-friendly mirror on an exterior wall to reflect light can make a smaller yard or patio space feel more open. In order to show off the greenery and natural features of the yard, pay attention to what you are reflecting so that it is not hindered by a reflection of a bare wall or bulky barbecue set.
Bring the Indoor Space Out
Show how the space can be used for outdoor entertainment by connecting the indoor space to the outdoor space. This would make the backyard feel larger and look more appealing to buyers. Add a waterproof rug, cushioned furniture, outdoor throw pillows, etc. Using the same colors you find inside the home in the exterior color scheme will help with the connection between living spaces inside and out. If you want potential buyers to feel like they can hang out in the outdoor area, give them an example of how they can furnish it.
2121 Vail Avenue listed by Helen Adams Realty's Susan Shirer is a perfect example of outdoor furniture and living space.

There have been many parallels drawn with the Leicester City story but they do a disservice to the visible progress Connacht have made in recent years, culminating in Saturday's magnificent Guinness Pro12 final victory at BT Murrayfield.
At the start of the season quite a few people, including Glasgow Warriors coach Gregor Townsend, were tipping the improving west of Ireland province to be contenders, and their odds were considerably shorter than 5,000-1. Skipper John Muldoon revealed that his wife's fortune teller was equally confident, predicting they would get to the final at least.
Connacht have had a bit of fun with the comparisons with Claudio Ranieri's soccer sensations but the captain stressed in his euphoric post-match press conference that there was always a much bigger chance of them winning their competition than Leicester. The days of Connacht scraping around the basement are long gone with improving league positions under coach Pat Lam.
And yet, from the island of storytellers it remains an incredible tale in its own right as the province which has lived in the shadow of Leinster, Munster and Ulster all its history finally lifted a major trophy.
Muldoon's career doesn't span the entire 131-year history of Connacht rugby, though it sometimes feels like it might, but there was a similar feel to Al Kellock last year as the 33-year-old back-rower hoisted the trophy aloft. He was a young pro when the IRFU flirted with shutting the team down and battled on through many a barren season, always coming back for more.
The spirit of Connacht was illustrated when Muldoon revealed that players had chipped in with their own cash to ensure four academy players who had trained but not taken the field during the season made the trip to Edinburgh after the club drew a financial line on bringing the 46 players who had made appearances.
It all seems pre-destined now but in the lead-up to the game it seemed as if the stars were aligning for Leinster. The four-time champions had the experience of the big occasion and appeared to have timed their run to perfection, hitting impressive form towards the end of the season and in their semi-final win over Ulster.
In front of a vocal crowd of 34,450 – a record for a Pro12 final – the favourites started the game strongly too but, as they have all season, Connacht stood up strong before unleashing a thrilling counter punch with their trademark wide, expansive, ball-in-hand approach and raced to a 15-0 half-time lead through tries by full-back Tiernan O'Halloran and right wing Niyi Adeolokun.
When the excellent young left wing Matt Healy pounced on AJ MacGinty's lovely threaded grubber they were well on their way but a Sean Cronin riposte and a plethora of injuries had Connacht holding on. But hold on they did.
"We all watch sport because we know on any given day anyone can win," said Muldoon. "That's the beauty of sport. Sport can be beautiful but it can also be cruel. I suppose in the back of our minds coming here today we've thought, we've had a great season but it could be a cruel end.
"We wanted to play the way we have all season, that was the main thing me and Pat [Lam] were hammering into the guys – 'don't fall back into old habits'.
"We have a gameplan and stick to it wholeheartedly. And it's won us the championship."
Muldoon admitted there had been times in his career when he considered chucking it with Connacht but always sensed something like this could happen. "You always believe. From when I was a kid out in the backyard with my two brothers you always dream of lifting trophies over your head. Nothing changes," he said.
"I'm just delighted. You always believe but when you are going through tough times it's harder to believe. I've walked in off the pitch many times and thought, right, that's me done, I'm not staying here.
"Unfortunately at times I felt we weren't moving as quickly as I'd like us to and felt I needed to move. But it's where you're from and who you are.
"I saw friends, family and neighbours out there in the crowd, many of whom aren't really rugby people, and it was lovely to see them.
"Ultimately deep down you believe it's coming and you can be part of it. I'm just chuffed to be here."

PAYE umbrella contractors working in the IT skills market will be cheered by a new survey produced for the website CWJobs, which reveals that demand for IT professionals rose consistently over the last six quarters.
Commenting on the data, CWJobs' director, Richard Nott, said that the IT market is "continuing to stabilise," which is encouraging news for all who make their living through IT contracting. In Q2 and Q3 last year, growth hit 8 per cent and continued rising in Q4, when it reached 5 per cent. 2011 is likely to see continued growth in the sector throughout the year. Even so, Mr Nott cautioned against excessive optimism – the figures are still considerably lower than those seen before the recession hit and a full recovery in the market for IT jobs is still some way off.
The survey coincides with decidedly more gloomy research from GfK NOP, which shows that consumer confidence fell sharply during April, reaching a score of -31 on the index. This is only the third time in the index's 37 year history that consumer confidence has fallen below -30. The sharpest decline measured was in people's confidence about their personal finances, which fell to -23 over the last year. It remains negative in outlook for the forthcoming year at -14.
The Managing Director of GfK NOP Social Research, Nick Moon, said that the drop in confidence was bad news for both the government and the economy. The Chancellor's attempts to spur economic growth in the March budget do not appear to have convinced the public. Mr Moon expressed his concern that, as all five measures of consumer confidence showed a decline, a double dip recession remains a real possibility.

Gus Lofberg, Jr. '27
Date of birth: April 6, 1903
Date of death: September 5, 1942
Age: 39
Lucky Bag
From the 1927 Lucky Bag:
Gus was lost when USS Little (APD 4) was sunk was sunk near Guadalcanal by Japanese surface forces early in the morning of September 5, 1942. He was the ship's commanding officer.
His wife was listed as next of kin.
Silver Star
Gus' Silver Star citation was quoted in part in the Santa Cruz Sentinel on August 8, 1943:
For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity as commanding oflicer of the U. S. S. Little during action … when hostile vessels moved in under the misty haze of night and bombarded our shore positions, Lieutenant Commander Lofberg, although seriously handicapped by limitation of fire power and reduction of armament, unhesitatingly steamed forward to challenge the attacking foe. Suddenly spotlighted under a flood of illumination from two forces of Japanese destroyers, he fought his ship with courageous determination and grim defiance, well aware that she was unequipped to engage an outnumbering force in battle. Scoring several hits on the enemy while attempting to withdraw before a vigorous curtain of fire, he kept his guns blazing away until the Little was eventually struck and set aflame. His brilliant leadership and relentless fighting spirit, maintained with utter disregard for personal safety, were in keeping with the highest traditions of the United States naval service.

Harry Bauer '27 was in command of USS Gregory (APD 3), which was also lost in this action.
Class of 1927
Gus is one of 43 members of the Class of 1927 on Virtual Memorial Hall.

Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC) is committed to support activities that could make sustainable and lasting impact on Ghanaians, Mrs Carmen Bruce-Annan, Corporate Affairs Manager of the national oil company has said.
Speaking at the launch of a workshop organised by the Sickle Cell Foundation- Ghana to build the capacity of counsellors in Accra on Monday, Mrs Bruce-Annan said a look at the statistics on the sickle cells condition looks startling and affects everyone.
"We are committed to things that affect our people, where we can make a sustainable and lasting impact on our people," Mrs Bruce-Annan said.
She pledged GNPC's continued support to the work of the Foundation to give relief to persons born with the Sickle Cell Disease (SCD).
The Foundation, expressed appreciation to GNPC for its support which made it possible for the workshop, dubbed: "Genetic Education and Counselling for Sickle Cell Conditions in Ghana (GENECIS-Ghana) to take place."
GNPC is supporting the Foundation to implement the Scale-up Plan of the National Newborn Screening Programme for SCD, under a proposed four-year plan.
The plan, if implemented, would expand newborn screening to all districts by the end of 2017/2018.
The workshop was part of a programme to enable the Sickle Cell Foundation of Ghana recruit the best qualified personnel, train Ghanaian health workers, and develop the education and awareness programmes for pregnant women and the public.
Dr Gloria Quansah Asare, Deputy Director-General of Ghana Health Service, said it is important that everyone knows their genetic makeup as far as the SCD is concerned adding that genetic counselling and screening could lead to substantial reduction in the number of children born with the trait.
She said SCD is the most common serious inherited disease in Africa and in people of African ancestry.
She urged the would be parents to check their status before deciding to marry; since AS couples stand the chance of have one of their children being a sufferer of the SCD.
The Deputy Director-General said people with SCD could live long if they protect themselves from malaria and other infections more so it is important for them to always drink plenty water.
The SCD is a serious disease with many complications including severe anaemia, frequent attacks of severe pain ("crisis"), stroke, infections and ultimately, early death.
Newborn screening is a public health programme in which newborns are tested for serious diseases that could lead to early death, or severe and irreparable damage, and with such screening those diagnosed with such those diseases could be introduced to preventive interventions.
In 1993, Professor Kwaku Ohene –Frempong introduced newborn Screening for SCD to Ghana and Africa with a pilot research project entitled: "New Born Screening For Sickle Cell Disease In Ghana", funded by the US National Institute of Health.
From 1995 to 2008 the project screened without charge, more than 255,000 babies in Kumasi and Tikrom, a nearby rural community.
The study estimated that more than 14,000 babies are born in Ghana annually, amounting to two per cent of all births.
In November 2011, the government launched the National Newborn Screening Programme for SCD, with the goal to scale up the pilot project into a universal programme offering screening for SCD to all babies born in Ghana.
The secondary goal of the proposed programme is to reduce under –five childhood mortality due to SCD as part of the plan to meet the Millennium Development Goal four. GNA

Avi, chef and co-owner, is the creative mind behind the food. Try shaved artichoke with truffles, filleted sardines stuffed with Saint Moor cheese and fried with sage butter atop a lush tomato salad, mullet rings fried with roasted peppers, and more.

One thing's for sure: Reese Witherspoon isn't letting anyone walk all over her. And yes, the includes her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles.
In a video meme, Witherspoon is seen cleaning her star with a tissue—all while unleashing a hilarious, confidence-boosting pep-talk. You know, to the terrazzo—but also to herself. "Oh now you're looking good, girl! And don't you let people walk all over you. I know you're on the street, but don't you do that: You're a queen," she said. And, the #bossbabe has quite the sense of humor, given that she shared the meme via her own Instagram account, just to make sure all of her followers could take note of her joke-cloaked inspiring message.
We can all learn a thing or two from Witherspoon's cheeky cleaning habit, after all. When you're feeling down, just brush yourself off and get after it, because no one should ever be able to stop you from glowing.

The rise of virtual reality is bringing plenty of fun, but it needs to enter the professional world. Alex Hern understands the role entertainment plays in introducing people to VR, but he wants to take it from there. His tech firm Tsunami VR is creating some of the first examples of VR communication apps. Innovation in technology is usually awkward, but his efforts are shaping VR communication into something formal. Business communication changes every decade as new technology rises. In the past, the internet and phones made a splash. Now, Alex Hern wants to bring a more direct form of communication to the conference room. Visit tsunamixr.com to know more.
Tsunami VR is putting all of its ambition into one domain. There are plenty of VR companies giving us new ways to entertain ourselves, but they aren't trying to take over the office. Alex Hern thinks the potential for office VR is going to be a game changer. Conference meetings generally require all executives in the same room. With VR communication, executives can communicate with each other wherever they are. The ability to plug into a virtual meeting room is going to change how we work. It might even evolve into something as big as phones are today.
Read: https://www.bloomberg.com/research/stocks/private/person.asp?personId=71276&privcapId=419332108
Whenever an entrepreneur decides to open a business, there are risks to consider. Virtual reality is still a growing technology without any certainty. Alex Hern is going to need to work as hard as possible to sell Tsunami VR. Many people will consider office VR to be a gimmick, and there are certainly those out there who think VR is just a fad. Good ideas don't always seem good at the time we try them. Often, it takes time for people to realize how a change will benefit them. Alex Hern wants to show the world how this technology will change their work lives. Learn more about Alex at UCSD.edu.

The first Season 4 trailer for DreamWorks Animation's Voltron: Legendary Defender Netflix series has dropped, and while the war effort is still ongoing, looks like tensions will rise among our Paladins.
Slated to arrive on Oct. 13 (that'll give you more than enough time to rewatch Seasons 1-3), the fourth season of the critically acclaimed series (Season 1 earned a 100% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes) will see Team Voltron return for six new action-packed episodes.
Now that Shiro (voiced by Josh Keaton) is back at Castleship, our guy Keith (former Walking Dead alum Steven Yeun) "makes a choice that causes a rift between him and Team Voltron." And while Princess Allura (Kimberly Brooks) and our Paladins are hard at work building the Voltron Coalition (which needs you, by the way), seems that Prince Lotor's (A.J. LoCascio) plans begin to crystallize.
Hailing from Joaquim Dos Santos (The Legend of Korra, Avatar: The Last Airbender) and co-executive producer Lauren Montgomery (The Legend of Korra), Voltron: Legendary Defender will hold a panel at New York Comic Con on Oct. 7, during which fans will be treated to an inside look at Season 4 and receive an exclusive NYCC poster created by Montgomery.
Let's cross our fingers the sneak peek will make its merry way online soon after. But in the meanwhile, dig into the first Season 4 trailer and let us know what you think.

About Us
Our story is really quite simple – I love clothes.
I always have and, if I had to guess, I think I always will.
As the owner of Up South, it's everything I ever wanted in a boutique. It's tasteful. It's Southern. It's playful. And I love taking into consideration what I think my customers will love to wear, and what will make them feel their best.
Up South, named for new directions and new beginnings, has a total boutique-feel that's easy on the wallet. Because we don't carry specific clothing lines, I have the flexibility to carry pieces that I know my customers will love, while staying cost-effective.
When you walk into Up South or browse our online collections, you'll be welcome with variety, versatility and styles that will work for this season, and seasons to come.
Between dresses, tops, scarves, handbags, jewelry and shoes, I try my best to cater to everyone – twenty-something college students, professional women in their fifties and every age and stage in between.
My thought process? I want both moms and daughters to be able to walk in and then walk out with something they both love.
And for that very reason, I keep Up South stocked with classic pieces, but also supply the fun accessories to play up any outfit. My pieces are selected thoughtfully, because I want you to be able to wear the same piece when you're out to lunch with your best friend, and again to an evening wedding.
However, if there's one thing my customers seem partial to, it's the nautical theme. Anything that has a nautical stripe is a done deal, likely because of our location situated right off the Chesapeake Bay.
But for all of my pieces, I trust my eyes and my heart. For those reasons, I think you'll love Up South as much as I do.

It's nothing wrong with being vulnerable
Usually, when I write a blog, I write about things that I have dealt with in the past and I can provide an encouraging word to lift up anyone who may be dealing with that particular topic. Well, in this blog I want to talk about something that I have been dealing with currently. I want to open up in a different way to you, my new, and dedicated readers a more vulnerable side of me. Some may ask, "Why tell all of your business?" but I don't care about that. It's nothing wrong with opening up sometimes, it may be the moment you will be set free. Now I wrote previous blogs about me making a commitment to God and how I will be patiently waiting for God to send my soul mate, well this honestly has been a really hard journey. I know they say during your single time you should focus on yourself and build yourself up, but In this particular season I have been really having strong desires to be in a relationship and feeling a real genuine romantic love. Sometimes it hits me so hard that it makes it hard for me to be happy sometimes for others. I am always wondering when will it be my turn. I know I am not the only single person who has or is going through this. I know that God does not like these feelings and I know that he has someone for me and I have to wait. Patience is definitely something that I also struggle with and we all know that's not a good combination. I do have a few accountability sisters who know more in depth but I can say that having them has been very helpful. They speak some great things that will take me out of my moment. I know when I am at a really low point, I can call any of them. I've been praying for contentment in this moment of my life because I don't want to result in settling for anything because I am feeling lonely. For my singles, I don't know if you are in the same stage as me in your time, if you are I can suggest to get accountability. This can be a friend you can trust, someone in ministry you can trust or a family member you can trust to help you and uplift you I your down times. Trust me it works. You don't have to do it on your own, and you are not alone. Pray for God to choose the right people also, because not everyone can be assigned to that task. If you are reading this and just started your season of singleness, it's not to scare you but trust me if you are deciding to wait on God it may or may not be easy. Everyone's seasons are different. But just pray and ask God to guide you and protect your mind and heart. Our thoughts can create a lot more than we intend, and our imagination will have us all in our feelings. Finding contentment is so important and that is why I have such a struggle in this moment. I am learning a lot in the journey about myself, and you will too, so stay encouraged and keep going because I am!

Reading List 2017/
In 2017 I had a goal of reading 50 books. I only made it to 44, but I WILL get to 50 this year!!! Below are my reads, spanning all categories and topics, with brief descriptions (and/or opinions :)). Let me know if you have any recommendations below!
1. Natural Born Heroes: Mastering the Lost Secrets of Strength and Endurance : Christopher McDougall
Christopher McDougall is a phenomenal writer in that he makes you suddenly crave to do the things he's doing, which in this book is unreal battles against gravity by running up cliffs in Greece. But he also provides historical context. After closing his books I always feel a bit smarter and I usually don't complain as much at the gym...
2. Eat and Run: My Unlikely Journey to Ultramarathon Greatness : Scott Jurek
Interesting story from the perspective of ultra marathon legend Scott Jurek. From being what calls a "talentless child" to becoming a champion of 50, 100, 150 mile races all the while becoming a vegan along the way.
3. The Girl with the Lower Back Tattoo : Amy Schumer
This was a lot deeper than I expected from the hilarious Amy Schumer. It still had her sense of wit, but woven throughout were some intimate details and strong beliefs.
4. The Unbearable Lightness of Being: Milan Kundera
A captivating philosophical novel. "This magnificent novel juxtaposes geographically distant places; brilliant and playful reflections; and a variety of styles to take its place as perhaps the major achievement of one of the world's truly great writers."
5. The Shadow of the Wind : Carlos Ruiz Zafon
I read this just before leaving for Barcelona, where the story takes place. "It's a story of love, of hatred, and of the dreams that live in the shadow of the wind."
6. The Geography of Bliss: Eric Weiner
"Part travel memoir, part humor, and part twisted self-help guide, The Geography of Bliss takes the reader across the globe to investigate not what happiness is, but WHERE it is." An interesting, thought-provoking yet light read.
7. ¡Yo! : Julia Alvarez
Written by one of my favorite Dominican authors (the position tied with Junot Diaz!). "A zesty, exuberant follow-up to the wildly popular How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents, full of Julia Alvarez's keen observations and tender affection for her characters."
8. How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents: Julia Alvarez
9. Running with the Firm: James Bannon
Spending more and more time in London, and with a favorite movie of Green Street Hooligans, this book was not only interesting (it's nonfiction!) but keeps you on your toes throughout. James is a cop who tells firsthand his time undercover with a football hooligan gang.
10. SS-GB: Len Deighton
A well-written 'what-if?' thriller on the Second World War that is now a major BBC series. "In February 1941 British Command surrendered to the Nazis. Churchill has been executed, the King is in the Tower and the SS are in Whitehall…"
11. A Dog's Purpose: W. Bruce Cameron
After a recommendation from my animal-loving Nana, I had to give this book (also made into a movie) a try. The movie is not the best, but the book was heartwarming.
12. A Dog's Journey (the sequel): W Bruce Cameron
13. Notes from a Small Island: Bill Bryson
14. Let the Great World Spin: Colum McCann
What quickly became one of my favorite novels, this enthralling story takes place in 1974 as a tightrope walker attempts to cross between the Twin Towers. "A dazzlingly rich vision of the pain, loveliness, mystery, and promise of New York City in the 1970s."
15. Medium Raw: A Bloody Valentine to the World of Food and the People Who Cook: Anthony Bourdain
Another Bourdain best. If you haven't already, I recommend Kitchen Confidential. Life seen through Bourdain's somewhat-jaded eyes is just more fun.
16. You Will Not Have My Hate: Antoine Leiris
17. Thrive: Arianna Huffington
Surprisingly, I did not like this book, and ended up skimming most pages towards the end. I just found it a bit redundant to all the "Lean In"-esque books out there these days.
18. A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier : Ishmael Beah
Heart-wrenching and powerful; Very hard to read at times but as one reviewer was quoted, everyone in the world should read this book
19. A Handmaid's Tale : Margaret Atwood
Creepy and nightmarish but also a great current read. Recently made into a HULU TV series.
20. Originals: How Non-Conformists Move the World: Adam Grant
I liked Originals better than any Malcom Gladwell books I've read, combined! To me he doesn't seem as pretentious; he writes with data driven statements but without sounding condescending or boring, and the overall message was truly inspiring - fight groupthink, be original!
21. Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future : Ashlee Vance
A great insight into one of the brilliant minds of our time.
22. Shoot Like a Girl: One Woman's Dramatic Fight in Afghanistan and on the Home Front: Mary Jennings Hegar
23. Find Me Unafraid: Love, Loss and Hope in an African Slum
24. Rich20Something : Ditch Your Average Job, Start an Epic Business, and Score the Life You Want by Daniel DiPiazza
25. Americanah : Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
26. The Heart and The Fist: The Education of a Humanitarian, the Making of a Navy SEAL
27. Beneath a Scarlet Sky: Mark Sullivan
Cannot say enough good things about this phenomenal book! "Based on the true story of a forgotten hero, the #1 Amazon Charts bestseller Beneath a Scarlet Sky is the triumphant, epic tale of one young man's incredible courage and resilience during one of history's darkest hours."
28. Half of a Yellow Sun: Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
29. Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking: Malcolm Gladwell
30. Motorcycle Diaries: Notes on a Latin American Journey: Ernesto Che Guevara
31. The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic and Madness at the Fair That Changed America: Erik Larson
32. X: Sue Grafton
33. Outliers: Malcolm Gladwell
34. A Thousand Splendid Suns: Khaled Hosseini
Hosseini is a beautiful writer. I've cried while reading his books and I always walk away with a greater understanding of an area I've never traveled- the Middle East.
35. Lab Girl: Hope Jahren
36. Ultra Marathon Man: Confessions of an All-Night Runner: Dean Karnazes
Karnazes has become one of the most famous ultra marathoners, and his book made going to the gym seem that much easier.
37. Girl in a Band: A Memoir: Kim Gordon (of Sonic Youth)
38. The Vegetarian: Han Kang
Word of warning: This book was very strange and very disturbing.
39. The Dry: Jane Harper
40. Five Nights in Paris: After Dark in the City of Light: John Baxter
The perfect read for the flight to Paris! (I would also recommend The Paris Wife by Paula McLain, about Hemingway's wife, Hadley)
41. Worth It: Your Life, Your Money, Your Terms: Amanda Steinberg
Written by the founder of DailyWorth.com, this book gives an original take on your typical "self-help financial advice". "Worth It outlines the essential financial information women need—and everything the institutions and advisors don't spell out. Steinberg gets to the bottom of why women are stressed and anxious when it comes to their finances and teaches them to stay away from strict budgeting and other harsh austerity practices."
42. The Kite Runner: Khaled Hosseini
43. Lilac Girls: Martha Hall Kelly
"Inspired by the life of a real World War II heroine, this remarkable debut novel reveals the power of unsung women to change history in their quest for love, freedom, and second chances." It makes you think twice before complaining about your crowded subway commute...
44. You Are a Badass at Making Money: Master the Mindset of Wealth: Jen Sincere
This was the perfect read to end the year and start 2018 with a fresh perspective. Jen speaks from personal experience and gives steps on how to trust the universe and manifest your happiness and wealth (don't knock it till you try it :)). If you like this read, I definitely recommend E-Squared by Pam Grout.
I'd love to hear your recommendations to get started on the 2018 list! Let me know below :)

Part 1 – Finding a trusted adviser
Your relationship with your financial planner is critical to your financial health. Choosing a financial adviser is often difficult and establishing a relationship takes time.
Choose wisely
There are currently over 140 000 so called "financial advisers" in South Africa, of which only approximately 6 000 have the professional designation of being a Certified Financial Planner (CFP®) and who are members of the Financial Planning Institute of South Africa. Choosing a professionally qualified financial planner to look after your financial health is as important as choosing a professionally qualified doctor to look after your physical health. A professionally qualified financial planner is easy distinguishable and has the designation "CFP®" at the end of his name.
Ask penetrating questions
You are entitled to ask penetrating questions pertaining to a financial planner's tertiary qualifications, experience, contracts and licenses. A client should ask penetrating questions with regards to the advice given and financial products presented. A professional financial planner ought to be able to answer any direct question clearly and coherently. Fuzzy, vague answers to clear questions should be a warning to a client that the experience and/or knowledge level of an adviser is not up to standard.
Your financial health should be the main topic and focus
An experienced financial planner will always keep his focus on his client's financial needs. It goes without saying that a thorough discussion of a client's needs is the starting point of a professional relationship with a financial planner. Your needs ought to be understood and addressed by your financial planner in a clear and direct manner. A financial planner functions in the same way as a doctor making a diagnoses and then formulates a medical solution and prescribing medication and/or rehabilitating conduct.
Regular check-ups
Monitoring your financial plan and financial progress should be done at least annually. You are assisting your financial planner to focus on your needs if you make an appointment with him in the same way you see your dentist or doctor for a check-up.
Be a transparent client
It is easier to help a client when the client is transparent and not secretive. It is a matter of trust. One should be able to trust one's financial planner with sensitive information as. It is very difficult to advise a client accurately when such a client is secretive. An experienced financial planner who has your best interests at heart will want to know about the details in your will, your monthly cash flow, previous marriages, children from a previous marriage, surities that you signed, elderly parents that are or will become part of your financial concerns, etc. The more your financial planner knows, the more he will be able to be of value to you.
An experienced, knowledgeable financial planner and a transparent, involved client can build a mutually beneficial relationship over time. Trust is earned and forms the basis of all relationships – choose your trusted adviser wisely!

You'll love this. Read and enjoy. By the way, I love Dooley. I do. I do.
The scene: Dooley's tutor, Father Tim, and Dooley sharing a meal after a tutoring session. A Light in the Window, Jan Karon, page 379
"She looked so stern he thought he'd warm up the introduction. "Louise…" he said, extending his hand.
"I don't believe you should call me by my Christian name."
"Of course…"
"We wouldn't want your parishioners to talk, since we're both unmarried and thrown together in the intimacy of the home environment."
He felt a positive wrench in his stomach. What was worse, he had to make dinner for this person.
"I got a stomach cramp," said Dooley, whose eyes looked bloodshot.
"Me, too," said the rector. They were still sitting in the kitchen, unable to move since Louise Appleshaw had risen from the table and insisted on seeing herself to the door.
"I hate 'at ol' bat."
"Let me ask you something," he said wearily. "Can you say 'I hate that old bat'? Try it, just like I said it."
"I hate that old bat."
"Well done. Who needs a tutor?"
He was exhausted. And since Louise Appleshaw was allergic to anything with barley, oats, raisins, nuts, pineapple, white flour, sugar, cow's milk, carob, chocolate, dates, leeks, cabbage, lima beans, beef, pork, and tomatoes, what in the name of heaven was he going to do about dinner on Friday?
The Mitford Series Books by Jan Karon are delightful!!! Read them.
Don't be an old bat today. You might give someone a stomach cramp.
Just a thought…….DaVinci's Classroom Teacher
TEACHER TIP: After you read a Mitford Book (At Home in Mitford is the first book), choose one character to share. Read sections of the book to your class, allowing them to discuss, draw, and delight in this person. You may introduce writing class with this activity once a week or so, "Okay, it's time for a Dooley reading….." or Father Tim, or Sadie, or Emma. There are many personalities to choose. FUN for all.
(Look out for Dooley's conversations–some of it's….raw. Funny, but raw.)
Draw maps of Mitford.
MOTHER TIP: Are you reading with your chldren? "No, my children can read." Please don't overlook the joy of reading together even when your children become independent readers. I'd recommend reading the Mitford Books with a ten year old, elevenish, or possible twelve year old.
Are you familiar with The Simple Wife? (see the links). This lady plans so well she reads with her daughters at breakfast before they go to school: fed and read. (get it??)
WRITERS: Study Jan's characters and humor. (I'm surprised half the world hasn't move to Mitford (Blowing Rock, NC) after reading the books.

August 2, 1948
New York City, New York, U.S.
|Alma mater
Brooklyn College
Columbia University
University of Leeds
|Radio host, political commentator, creator of Prager University (a YouTube channel), author, and television personality

Susan Reed (2008–present)
Dennis Mark Prager (/ˈpreɪɡər/; born August 2, 1948) is an American conservative and nationally syndicated radio talk show host,[1] columnist, author, and public speaker.[2][3]
Early life and education
Prager was born to modern Orthodox Jewish parents. He attended the Yeshiva of Flatbush in Brooklyn, New York. There, in the 10th grade, he met Joseph Telushkin. The two became close friends and would later co-author two books. He went on to attend Brooklyn College and graduated with a double major in anthropology and history. Between 1970 and 1972, he attended the Middle East and Russian Institutes (now Harriman Institute) at the Columbia University School of International and Public Affairs. Prager also studied international history, comparative religion, and Arabic at the University of Leeds.[4]
Prager left Columbia University without finishing his master's degree and decided to write an introduction to Judaism with his friend, Telushkin: The Nine Questions People Ask About Judaism. Published in 1976, it became a bestseller that was popular in all major American Jewish movements. The book was intended for nonobservant Jews. Unlike Telushkin, who became an Orthodox rabbi, Prager abandoned his Orthodoxy as an adult but continues to maintain many traditional Jewish practices.[4]
In April 1976, Shlomo Bardin, the founder and director of the Brandeis-Bardin Institute, invited Prager to succeed him as the director, and Prager hired Telushkin as education director. Prager remained at the institute until September 1983. During his tenure, he succeeded in influencing many young Jews and built up a cadre of "Prager followers". He married Janice Goldstein in 1981, and in 1983, they had their son, David.[4]
In 1982, KABC (AM) in Los Angeles hired Prager to host a talk show on religion every Sunday night. Prager hosted the show for more than ten years. He and Telushkin published another book in 1983, Why the Jews? The Reason for Antisemitism.[5] Later that year, Prager became the Monday-Thursday talk show host for KABC, but he refused to work on Friday night, the beginning of Shabbat. He also wrote a syndicated column for newspapers across the country. In 1985, Prager launched his own quarterly journal, Ultimate Issues, which was renamed to Prager Perspectives in 1996.[4]
Since 1999, he has hosted a nationally syndicated talk show from KRLA in Los Angeles. His show has some recurring segments. The "Happiness Hour" is based on his book Happiness Is a Serious Problem and occurs on the second hour of his show on Fridays. Other regular segments are the "Male/Female Hour", and "Ultimate Issues".
In 2009, Prager started a website, "Prager University", offering five-minute videos on various subjects such as the Ten Commandments, the minimum wage, the Middle East, Global warming, and happiness with a conservative perspective.[6] Video contributors are varied and include columnists George Will and Bret Stephens, British historians Paul Johnson and Andrew Roberts, American Enterprise Institute President Arthur Brooks, former Prime Minister of Spain Jose Maria Aznar, several university professors, and Prager himself. According to Prager, he created the site to challenge the "unhealthy effect intellectually and morally" of the American higher education system.[7] In 2016, fifteen of these videos have been classified as "restricted" by YouTube.[8]
Views and opinions
In 1985, in a debate with Rabbi Meir Kahane on the Ray Briem show, Prager stated that most Arabs would destroy Israel if they had the opportunity.
Prager wrote in 2006 that Keith Ellison, the first Muslim elected to Congress, should not be allowed to take his Congressional oath using a Qur'an because "American civilization" has been based on the Bible and its values, and an oath on another religious text would be unprecedented. Prager explained that though he is a religious Jew and so holds the Old Testament as sacred, he would take his oath of office on a Bible that included both the Old Testament and the New Testament, as he would honor a tradition that goes back to President George Washington, and that is the Bible in which nearly all Americans believe. In response, a former New York City Mayor, Ed Koch, called for Prager to end his service on the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Council.[9]
Published works
Prager's columns are handled by Creators Syndicate. He has been published in the Wall Street Journal, the Los Angeles Times and Commentary. His weekly syndicated column appears on such online websites as Townhall.com,[10] National Review Online, Jewish World Review and elsewhere. He also writes a bi-weekly column for The Jewish Journal of Greater Los Angeles.
He is also the author of seven books:
- The Nine Questions People Ask About Judaism (with Joseph Telushkin) (1986) ISBN 0-671-62261-7.
- Think a Second Time (44 Essays on 44 Subjects) (1996) ISBN 0-06-098709-X.
- Happiness Is a Serious Problem: A Human Nature Repair Manual (1999) ISBN 0-06-098735-9.

Roasted Pepper & Sun-dried Tomato Spaghetti with Turkey Meatballs
This is a delicious healthy pasta dish that is full of fresh, zesty flavour.
Serves 2
- 1 tbsp Rapeseed Oil
- 500g Turkey Mince
- 1 tbsp Green Pesto
- Zest of 1 Lemon and 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- Handful of Fresh Oregano
- 2 cloves of Garlic
- 1 Onion
- 1 large jarred Roasted Pepper
- 4 Sun-dried Tomatoes in Olive Oil
- 1 tsp Dried Chilli Flakes
- 1/2 tin of Chopped Tomatoes
- 1 tbsp Tomato Puree
- 1 tsp Balsamic Vinegar
- Handful of Baby Spinach
- 140g Wholewheat Spaghetti
- Salt and Pepper to season
Takes 10 minutes to prepare and 20minutes cooking on the hob
- Put the turkey mince in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Crush one clove of the garlic, finely chop the oregano and zest the lemon and add to the bowl with a tbsp of pesto and some salt and pepper. Stir everything together then roll into balls - you should get 10 but if you prefer the meatballs smaller you could make 12-14.
- Add the roasted pepper, sun-dried tomatoes, chilli flakes and other clove of garlic to a blender. Chop the onion roughly into chunks and add to the other ingredients with some salt and pepper before blitzing to a thick mixture.
- Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan and when it's hot, add the meatballs. Don't put the heat too high as the meatballs will stick. Keep an eye on the meatballs as they're cooking and turn regularly so they are browned on all sides. When you think they're done, carefully cut into one to check there is no pink meat left.
- Put a small frying pan on the heat and add the roasted pepper mixture and stir until hot. Add the tomato puree, balsamic and chopped tomatoes and leave to cook on a low heat.
- Add the spaghetti to a large saucepan pan of salted boiling water and cook according to the packet until al dente.
- Add the baby spinach to the sauce and leave until wilted.
- Drain the spaghetti and put it back into the saucepan. Add the sauce and the meatballs to the pan and stir everything together.
- Serve with a grating of parmesan on top.

The EPUB format supports specifying a cover image. This is the first page that is displayed when the book is opened. iBooks also takes the cover image and shrinks it down to 100×150 for display on the iBooks bookshelf. You can specify a different image for the bookshelf with a small additional step. I'm not a fan of vendor-specific features like this, but there's no epub standard for small-icon-on-bookshelf yet so there's no choice.
1. Right-Click and select Get Info on the desired book in iTunes.
2. Select the Artwork tab and select an image by clicking Add.
That's it! You can also see within the EPub file on disk, there is now an iTunesArtwork file with the newly selected Cover image.
