Already one of the most popular majors on college campuses for decades running, psychology is increasingly prevalent among online programs. Earning an online psychology degree allows students to study the same core curriculum as their on-campus counterparts while having the added conveniences of distance learning. Completing a psychology degree online can help working professionals obtain the career credentials they need and gain the field experience necessary for state-issued licensure. While requirements vary, some undergraduate and most graduate online psychology programs include a clinical component, which can be completed in-person near the student's residence. Online students can expect program options and accessibility to keep improving: 24% of institutions that offer psychology as a major have completely online psychology programs, according to the Sloan Consortium report.
Accreditation for Online Psychology Programs
Like any college or university, accreditation for online psychology programs is crucial for determining whether or not a program is up to national standards. Most schools that offer online psychology programs will have at least regional accreditation. The American Psychological Association (APA), the a primary accrediting body of psychology programs in the U.S., has limitations regarding its accreditation process. The APA does not currently offer accreditation for any online psychology programs, or any bachelor's or master's degrees in psychology. The APA only accredits specific doctoral graduate programs, predoctoral internships, and postdoctoral residencies in professional psychology. Check the APA website for a list of accredited psychology degree programs. The National Association of School Psychologists and the Psychological Clinical Science Accreditation System may also extend accreditation to some doctoral programs.
While requirements vary, earning an APA-accredited doctoral degree in psychology may be necessary, depending on your state of practice and career goals. Many graduates of an online psychology degree at the bachelor's or master's level can find work in the industry and/or pursue certification. However, some states require students to have earned an APA-accredited doctorate as a condition of licensure, which means they may be limited in their employment opportunities unless they earn a terminal degree in the field.
Can You Get a Psychology Degree Online?
There are a vast array of psychology degrees and programs online. While there may be some differences in how content is delivered, both traditional and online psychology degrees typically include the same core coursework and offer many of the same concentrations, including clinical, school, and industrial/organizational psychology. Earning a psychology degree online allows students with demanding work and family obligations to gain advanced knowledge and professional experience in their own time from any location. Required fieldwork is an important component of any accredited psychology degree online. While online students are still required to meet a set number of clinical hours or complete an internship, most online psychology programs allow students to satisfy this requirement at a location close to their residence.
Distance students may find significant cost and/or time savings in an online psychology degree. Studying online can save students the costs of room and board on campus, as well as commuting and campus facility fees. Some schools even offer discounts for online learning or flat rates regardless of state of residence. Additionally, bridge and accelerated degree programs can offer students faster paths to graduation, thus potentially lowering costs.
Types of Online Psychology Degrees
Today, colleges and universities offer online psychology degrees at every level of study, from associate to doctoral programs. Each level of degree directly affects career prospects after graduation. A bachelor's is both the minimum education requirement for the industry and the most popular online psychology program. However, employers increasingly prefer a master's degree. When comparing types of online psychology degrees, consider the kind of career you aspire to in the field. Undergraduate programs can prepare you for some entry-level and non-clinical positions, while master's degree programs qualify you to pursue licensure and seek out senior positions in a specialty area of psychology. Some states require a doctoral degree from an APA-accredited program as a condition of licensure.

What Psychology Degree Concentrations are Offered Online?
The field of psychology encompasses a wide variety of specializations. Depending on a student's professional interests and career goals, they may seek out a school that offers an online psychology degree in a specialty such as child, clinical, or forensic psychology. All programs in these specializations require internship hours or practicum courses. Most online accredited psychology degrees allow students to complete core coursework online while fulfilling supervised practicum requirements near their residence.
- Child Psychology: Child psychologists specialize in treating children and adolescents for a wide variety of psychological, emotional, and behavioral disorders. Since a master's degree is typically the minimum educational requirement for this position, the majority of online psychology degrees offered in this concentration are intended for graduate students. Curricula explore developmental issues, assessment techniques, and ethical practices specific to child psychology.
- Clinical Psychology: The largest specialty area within psychology, clinical practitioners are responsible for diagnosing and treating individuals for a broad range of emotional, behavioral, and mental disorders. Practicing clinical psychologists must have a graduate degree and hold valid professional licensure.
- Counseling Psychology: Unlike clinical psychologists, who focus on addressing existing mental illnesses, counseling psychologists focus on helping healthy individuals maintain functioning social and interpersonal relationships in day-to-day life. In all states, counseling psychologists must be licensed, a process which typically requires a master's degree.
- Educational Psychology: Educational psychologists develop education methods and evaluate institutions. They are typically required to have a master's to enter the field. Students aspiring to teach or perform research at the college level should have a PhD or doctoral degree. Graduate students must complete the minimum supervised practicum hours required to secure licensure in their state.
- Forensic Psychology: Forensic psychologists are charged with applying psychological theories and assessment techniques to criminal justice and legal cases, operating at the intersection of psychology and the law. They are required to have a PhD or PsyD from an APA-accredited program and be licensed to practice through the American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP). The forensic psychology doctorate includes extensive practicum, internship, and dissertation requirements. The degree is especially ideal for online students looking to conduct independent research.
- Health Psychology: Health psychologists study the relationship between mind and body They research prevention, intervention, and health education methods. These professionals are typically required to hold a doctorate in psychology, as well as have a state-issued license and at least two years of experience in the field.
- Industrial Organizational Psychology: I/O psychologists study the fundamental operations of corporate environments, including human resources, administration, management, and leadership. While a master's degree in I/O psychology is the minimum required for practitioner jobs in business, aspiring teachers and researchers in this specialty typically require a doctoral degree. A doctorate is also required for licensure, which can further advance career opportunities.
- School Psychology: School psychologists assess and treat psychological issues among students in preschool, elementary, and high school environments. They are required to hold at least a master's degree in the specialty to sit for the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP) licensing examination to become certified.
- Sports Psychology: Like health psychologists, experts in sports psychology are responsible for possessing a deep understanding of the mind-body connection. They provide expertise in a unique combination of traditional psychology and sports science skills. Sports psychologists can enter the field with a master's degree, though many employers prefer candidates with a doctorate in this specialty. Online PhDs and PsyDs programs incorporate coursework in qualitative and quantitative research and social psychology. Graduates are prepared to sit for the Examination for Professional Practice of Psychology, which leads to professional licensure.
Careers for Psychology Degree Graduates
Graduates of an online psychology degree will have their choice of many exciting and lucrative careers in the field. Students who have earned a psychology degree online and have professional experience and credentials are also eligible for related jobs in other fields. For example, while it's not surprising for psychology graduates to provide therapy or counseling services, many are uniquely qualified to become social workers, market researchers, or psychology professors.
Marriage and Family Therapist
Marriage and family therapists help spouses and families to manage interpersonal issues and improve relationships. Many employ cognitive therapy techniques in a family-centered approach to self-esteem, stress, addiction, and other issues.
Degree Recommended: Master's degree; practitioners must also be licensed in their state
School Counselor
Professionals in this specialty counsel students in the academic and social skills necessary for success. They also address any issues adversely affecting a student's performance in school.
Degree Recommended: Master's degree; public school counselors must also have a state-issued license
Social Worker
Entry-level social workers may work in administrative positions, as caseworkers, or as mental health assistants. Clinical social workers are also qualified to diagnose and treat mental and behavioral issues in individuals of all ages.
Degree Recommended: Bachelor's degree is sufficient for some entry-level positions, though clinical social workers must have a master's degree, two years of experience, and a state license to practice
Market Researcher
These professionals study various market conditions to forecast potential sales and promotion of a service or product. Ideal candidates have strong analytical skills in statistics, math, and computer science. They also research concepts including economics and consumer behavior.
Degree Recommended: Bachelor's degree
Psychology Professor
Professors of psychology may be employed by two-year community colleges, vocational programs, or four-year universities. They are expected to hold an advanced degree in psychology, or whichever specialty within the field they plan to teach.
Degree Recommended: PhD or doctoral degree, though a master's degree may be sufficient for some positions
Where Can I Earn a Degree in Psychology?
Choosing an online psychology degree can seem daunting without some guidance in what to look for. Depending on the degree level and type of program you seek, schools may differ on price, programs offered, formats available, and the length of the program. It is crucial to research these and other elements extensively before selecting the program that's right for you. Read on to compare top online psychology programs in our database, below.

'Hire upright, honest judges to change corrupt judiciary image' – SC
23 sep 2010
NEW DELHI: Concerned at the dipping image of the judicial system due to growing incidents of corruption, the Supreme Court has said all round efforts were needed urgently to recruit upright and honest persons as judicial officers to effect an image makeover for the judiciary.
"Upright and honest judicial officers are needed not only to bolster the image of the judiciary in the eyes of the litigants but also to sustain the culture of integrity, virtue and ethics among judges," said a bench comprising Justices Mukundakam Sharma and Anil R Dave.
Writing for the bench, Justice Sharma said: "Public perception of judiciary matters just as much as its role in dispute resolution. The credibility of the entire judiciary is often undermined by isolated acts of transgression by a few members of the bench, and therefore it is imperative to maintain a high benchmark of honesty, accountability and good conduct."
The bench gave vent to its feeling while upholding the dismissal of a Jammu & Kashmir district judge. It said the officer was in the probation period and that the high court was right in not confirming his services after scrutinising his track record. Not taking this incident as an isolated one, the bench reflected upon the solemn duty cast on the HCs to consider and appreciate the service of a judicial officer before confirming him in service so as to weed out the deadwood and corrupt from the judiciary.

In summary, an estimated 11.5 million unauthorized immigrants were living in the United States in January 2011 compared to a revised 2010 estimate of 11.6 million.These results suggest little to no change in the unauthorized immigrant population from 2010 to 2011. It is unlikely that the unauthorized immigrant population increased after 2007 given relatively high U.S. unemployment, improved economic conditions in Mexico, record low numbers of apprehensions of unauthorized immigrants at U.S. borders, and greater levels of border enforcement. Of all unauthorized immigrants living in the United States in 2011, 55 percent entered between 1995 and 2004. Entrants since 2005 accounted for only 14 percent of the total. Fifty-nine percent of unauthorized immigrants in 2011 were from Mexico.
The DHS report also noted that they have been working with the group that first brought us regular reports on the size of the undocumented immigrant population--Pew Hispanic Center--to make the correct adjustments for differences in estimates from the American Community Survey when based on the 2010 census compared to the previous estimates based on the 2000 census data. This assures us that we are seeing the best available figures.

April 9, 1990, Section C, Page 7Buy Reprints
In this, the most hopeful of Prague springs in 22 years, life moves at a giddy pace, even if toward uncertain destinations. The revolution of recent months has brought changes everywhere, and changes have created choices where none before existed.
It is curious theater, watching a country so unfamiliar with rights and opportunities taken for granted elsewhere. One current debate is over a new name for the country and whether it should join Czechs and Slavs by one word, a hyphen or a conjunction. While outsiders react with amusement, citizens here are enthralled by the freedom to discuss and decide.
Vera Caslavska finds herself in a similar predicament these days, faced with options once only a dreamer could have imagined. Should she remain in her current position as an adviser to Vaclav Havel, the playwright-turned-President; serve as Czechoslovakia's new Ambassador to Japan, or accept the nomination to be president of the National Olympic Committee?
Puts Her Country First
''Which is most important for Czechoslovakia?'' Caslavska, once Czechoslovakia's greatest Olympic gymnast, asked the other evening, with genuine uncertainty. ''I must do what is best for my country.''
Caslavska stood in the middle of Rudolf's Gallery, a glorious reception hall of gold-leafed walls, high ceilings and crystal chandeliers in Prague Castle, for more than 600 years the seat of government. She was a guest of the President's press secretary, Michael Zantovsky, at a reception for local and foreign journalists.
Given all that followed her Olympic triumphs in 1964 and 1968, the setting was as unlikely as her new opportunities.
At the 1964 Games in Tokyo, Caslavska was a little-known 22-year-old from Prague who stunned the gymnastics world by winning the all-around competition, plus two other gold medals and two silvers.
In April 1968, six months before the next Olympics, in Mexico City, she joined hundreds of other prominent Czechoslovak dissidents in signing the ''Manifesto of 2,000 Words,'' a document that grew out of the Prague Spring of 1968, which repudiated postwar Soviet intervention in Czechoslovakia.
A Warning, an Escape
When Soviet tanks rumbled through the streets four months later, the signatories were designated as criminals of the state and hunted down.
At the time, the Olympic gymnastics team was training in Moravia. What happened next, Caslavska said, she has never before disclosed.
A friend warned her that she might be imprisoned if the authorities found her. So he helped her escape into the tiny town of Sumperk in the Jeseniky Mountains, where she stayed for three weeks.
She grew disconsolate, aware that the Soviet gymnasts, her fiercest rivals, had already traveled to Mexico City to adapt to the climate and altitude. She, meanwhile, was stuck in Sumperk, with the most rudimentary of training opportunities.
''I was hanging on trees and tumbling in the meadows in front of the cottage,'' she said.
As the Games approached, she rejoined her teammates by permission of the authorities. In Mexico City, she won the all-around, three other gold medals, and two silvers.
Telling Her Story
A day after her final event, she married a Czechoslovak 1,500-meter runner, Josef Odlozil, and returned home to start a family and complete her autobiography. But she found that the Government had not forgotten she had signed the manifesto.
She could not get her autobiography published, no doubt because 140 pages were devoted to how Czechoslovakia's sports system worked and how Government officials treated athletes and sports administrators. In time, she had it published in Japan, but without the sections deemed unacceptable by the Czechoslovak Government authorities.
On Jan. 3, 1970, she began another fight. She asked the Sports Minister, Antonin Himmel, for a job with the national girls' gymnastics team. He refused, saying: ''Come back next year. This is not a suitable time yet.''
For five years, every Jan. 3, she appeared in the same office, asking for the same job.
''For the fifth year, I was supposed to apply again, but I knew it was necessary to change my way of negotiations,'' she said. ''So I dressed in an aerobics suit, high at the neck, very tight. I am quite a conservative person, and it was hard for me to dress like that, but I had to look for my courage.
''Mr. Himmel looked at me and measured me with his eyes. He asked me: 'Vera, what have you got on? Are you crazy?' I answered him: 'No, but I was supposed to come back on the third of January, and apply for work, and now I'm here, dressed for work. And I'm not leaving until you give me a team and a gymnastics hall in which to work.'
''He was not able to decide such a thing alone. He called all of his advisers into the room. A full 20 men stared at me. They finally decided I could get a team, but it had to be done in a very secret way.''
Denial Sought and Refused
To save face with their superiors, the sports authorities allowed Caslavska only to work with the current coaches. She would not be allowed to travel outside the country. In time, the authorities offered to loosen their grip if she would deny publicly that she had signed the manifesto. She refused.
Her absence from view lasted another five years, until 1979, when Czechoslovakia was trying to improve economic ties with Mexico. The Mexican president, Jose Lopez Portillo, remembered her from the 1968 Olympics, and asked the authorities if Caslavska would be permitted to come to Mexico to work with young Mexican gymnasts.
''I don't want to say I was exchanged for oil,'' Caslavska said, with a laugh. But she was allowed to go, and spent the next two years there.
Even after her return, however, the authorities tried to keep her hidden. On a 1984 visit to Czechoslovakia, the president of the International Olympic Committee, Juan Antonio Samaranch, asked to see her and Emil Zatopek, the distance runner who won three gold medals at the 1952 Helsinki Olympics. Samaranch was told that Zatopek was ill and that Caslavska had family problems.
A year later, Samaranch returned and insisted upon presenting Zatopek and Caslavska with the Olympic Order.
This time, the authorities relented, and from that point on, they were unable to deny her existence any longer. She was allowed to join the European Gymnastics Union as a representative of the country and become a full-time coach with the national team preparing for the Seoul Olympics.
A year later, when the Communists were ousted from control of the Government, she began serving as an adviser to President Havel on matters of health care, human rights, physical education and sports.
She recently represented President Havel in Japan, where she spoke to 150 business executives in an effort to generate more business for Czechoslovakia. When she returned to Czechoslovakia, the possibility of going back to Tokyo as ambassador came up.
She also knows how disorganized Czechoslovakia's sports system has become. Before, everything was run from the State Central Committee for Sports. Now, each individual sports federation is on its own. The National Olympic Committee wants Caslavska to be its president.
She is almost overwhelmed with the options. Such choices. The afternoon sun sparkled off the gold-leafed walls in Rudolf's Gallery of Prague Castle. Someone quite official-looking tapped Caslavska on the shoulder. Could he have a word with her? Of course, she said. But what a time to choose.

The first tool under this project, Digitalaya, was launched recently as a part of C-DAC's 30th Foundation Day.
Dinesh Katre, HOD-Human Centered Design and Computing, C-DAC, told ET that the focus for the digital preservation project was preservation of data that was born digital. "While manuscripts and books have survived for thousands of years, we can't access data that we've stored in floppy drives because of how rapidly digital tech nology is evolving," he said.
As software and hardware evolves, a lot of digital data vanishes in five-six years. This has led to the creation of a new domain, digital preservation, which is rapidly gaining center stage worldwide.
In 2015, UNESCO members ratified a proposal for Preservation of, Access to, Documentary Heritage in the Digital Era, which put the spotlight firmly on the need to have a method to digitally preserve `born digital' data. Katre was a part of the team that worked on this proposal.
Digitalaya, which is an electronic records management and archival system, has been created to establish a Trustworthy Digital Repository as per ISO standards, wherein digital assets are audited for safety.
Going ahead, this ISO certification will help government and private bodies create digital preservation repositories that are auditable and held accountable to certain specific standards, ensuring that people who chose to save their data with these repositories don't suddenly lose access to it.
Digitalaya is one of the various tools that could be used by these repositories. This is the first time standards of this sort have been defined in India and will go a long way in ensuring that digital data can be safely preserved.
"C-DAC has done pilot projects with the National Archives of India, Indira Gandhi National Cultural Academy and other e-governance projects," said Katre.

It's over I tell you, I have had enough, no more, this is the end of the road. The sock war is OVER!! *phew* glad I got that off my chest. Ok so is this the sign of a domestic chic, or have I just gone totally crazy - you be the judge.
Here is the maths- 2 boys at school x 4 days of the week in navy socks = 16 navy socks, 8 in size small and 8 in size medium x (times by) a little boy who at odd times only puts 1 sock in the wash and the other (!!!!!) behind his pillow *?* Sock matching nightmare be gone says this crazy Mumma! Enough is Enough!!
They needed new socks, so I bought new socks. Six pair for both of them.
The solution - Little socks = red cotton. Big socks = blue cotton.
Until the big socks become the little socks, then we swap colours and carry on. Oh and still training my little one that BOTH socks go in the laundry basket please! Too much time on my hands you say? A-haaaa, I disagree, quite the opposite, this is a case of good time management and forward thinking. (Basically just over wasting time stuffing around with navy socks really.)
As for this ratbag bunch, it's puppets for you lot.
Aaaaahhhhhh it's sock valium - at last!
What boils you and how did you solve it?
P.S. Have a wonderful weekend at your place. In Australia, NSW its a long weekend and daylight savings begins early hours of Sunday morning. We still also have another week of school holidays and so I will be scarce here again over the next few days. Take care of you, huggle your family, laugh and love with your friends. Bless.

Real estate is the 4th largest sector of the economy. Between 2008 and 2014 the sector grew on average by 7.2% annually. In 2016, tax revenues recorded from the sector amounted to KShs 3.1bn. According to Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) the sector's tax revenue contribution did not reflect the growth and expansion of the economy. At the time approximately 20,000 landlords were in the tax net and complying. An amnesty programme that waived interest and penalties netted an additional KShs 130 million in tax revenue from the sector. Given that the sector is subject to various taxes and levies which include Income tax, value added tax, capital gains tax, stamp duty, rate and ground rent, the figures quoted pointed to possibly low compliance rates. Therefore something needed to be done.
To remedy the situation, the government introduced a raft of administrative measures targeting the landlords and tenants. The measures include introduction of withholding tax on rent, appointment of tenants and estate agents as collection agents and execution of a drive to increase the number of landlords in the tax net by 20,000. This article, will focus on the administrative measures and their impact on real estate investment.
All profit making entities including corporate landlords are required to pay an installment tax calculated at 25% of 110% of previous year's profit. Installment tax, which has been in existence for many years is actually an advance corporate tax. It is usually paid in a maximum of five (5) installments. In working out this tax, the national government assumes that an entity will record at least 10% growth in profit every year. They therefore require a corporate landlord to pay this projected profit in advance in four (4) equal installments. The fifth installment will arise if a corporate landlord records a hire profit than projected, then the balance of the tax needs to be settled before the end of the first quarter of the following financial year. This methodology assumes that real estate investment is an all-round profitable business and there is no chance that a landlord will suffer losses. However like any other business, landlord do experience losses due to unfavorable economic conditions, high operating costs and voids.
Following the introduction of valued added tax on commercial rent, the Government in 2016 introduced withholding of Value Added Tax (WHVAT). Like installment tax, WHVAT is not a new tax but a reinforcement measure to ensure all VAT due to Government is remitted. To enforce the measure KRA appointed mostly the large tenants including state corporations, public agencies, banks, insurance companies and leading retailers as withholding agents. The appointed agents are required to withhold the VAT component which is 16% of invoiced rent and remit directly to KRA by the 20th of the following month. On withholding, the agents are required to issue the landlord with a withholding certificate. The withholding certificate issued by the tenant is used by the Landlord to claim back VAT to avoid double taxation. Unfortunately landlords do not have the option of paying for goods and services less VAT and issue the vendor with a withholding certificate just like their tenants issued them with one. Withholding of VAT has the effect of denying landlords actual cash for the period when it should have been collected to when it is remitted.
This year and specifically on January, 1st 2017, withholding tax on rent (WHTR), a new administrative measure on rental income passed when the amendments to the Finance Act of 2016 came in to effect. According to this law, tenants are obligated to deduct 10% of the rent payable to the landlord and pay directly to KRA by 20th day of the month. This means that landlords will every month receive 10% less of the rent they invoice their tenants. Withholding 10% of the rent affects both individual and corporate owners of commercial and residential property. However for corporate landlords who also pay installment tax this new measure amounts to double taxation as there is no recourse to reclaim while say paying installment tax.
Collectively the three measures highlighted above, have the two positive net effects and two major negative effects. On the positive side, the Government is on one hand able to receive all tax revenue due to it and on the other hand, tenants have an improved cash position by delaying remittance of the withheld amount by between 20 and 50 days. On the negative effects, less cash flow means landlords will be unable to respond to unexpected increase in expenses or take up opportunities as they arise. Some may even exit the sector. With low investments and reduced number of landlords, tax revenue from the sector will also decline. Though not intended, the reinforcement measures being implemented may end up strangling the goose that lays the golden eggs. The adage, "cash is king and is the lifeblood of any business" holds true for real estate investments as well.
It is generally accepted that tax is a necessary obligation of the citizens of any country. Therefore before I conclude, it is important that a clarification is made about the KShs 3.1 billion tax revenue that was collected in 2016. Real estate as a sectors has different tax points and therefore contributes significantly to the overall tax revenue. Accordingly a portion of the total revenue that is VAT and corporate tax collected is from and by business in the sector. The sector is also a huge employer and so a portion of the pay as you earn (PAYE) is from employees working in the sector. In addition more is collected from capital gains tax, stamp duty, rates (by County Governments) and ground rent. Therefore the KShs 3.1 billion collected in 2016 was only from one source and that is the approximately 20,000 landlords in the KRA database. There is certainly need to address the compliance issues by bringing more landlords in to the database.
Ronald Reagan the 40th President of the United States was quoted stating that "businesses do not pay taxes, they only collect on behalf of Government". The incentive for business to collect tax on behalf of government is that it gives them liquidity and interest free cash. Accordingly with stifling administrative tax measures, it is unlikely that landlord's will relax and take in the reduced cash in-flow position. They are likely to institute mitigating measures which include increasing rent payable. The actual burden of these administrative measures, therefore is and will be borne by individual tenants and consumers through higher rents and prices of goods and services. It follows that if the tenants and consumers are unable to pay more, the sector will become less attractive to investors. It is therefore necessary that the government engages landlords and investors in the real estate sector and discuss how best to ensure that there is full compliance without depriving the sector of much needed cash in-flows. One such possible measure is to allow landlords to deduct the withheld 10% from installment tax.

Today, the wisdom and courage of Sara Jones continues….
I would often text sara with little encouraging words about how awesome she is and how she is going to be coming with us and our other Athenas on our next Project Athena Multisport Adventure in the Florida Keys. And on this particular day, she wrote back….
"U see something I can't see @ this point and I'm gonna borrow ur belief until I can find one in my soul .I love U"
We all have fears about whether we're good enough, strong enough, smart enough, ready enough to make that next big move in our lives. And all of that is completely normal. But YOU alone don't have to be smart, strong or ready enough for every big leap because, if you sit down for a moment and think about it, you'll find that you really do have a great group of coaches, mentors, loved ones and dedicated friends who are going to be there to ensure your success and cheer you and support you to any finish line. It's a team that you create and have created in your life, and every one of them believes in your more than you believe in yourself. Sara showed us that the key to courage is not always having it yourself, but in being willing to "borrow" that courage from others until you grow your own.

The Falklands war veteran Maj Gen Julian Thompson and former SAS chief Gen Sir Michael Rose have joined a campaign urging serving and retired military personnel to back Brexit.
Thompson, who led 3 Commando Brigade in the Falklands, said the UK found itself "dominated by people who we do not elect" in Brussels.
Rose – who was incorrectly included on a list of top brass backing the campaign to remain in the EU issued by Downing Street in February – said European laws had seriously undermined the UK's combat effectiveness.
The group of retired senior officers from the army, Royal Navy and Royal Marines gave their support to the Veterans for Britain campaign, which is calling for a vote to leave on 23 June.
In his message to veterans, Thompson said: "The result of this referendum will determine irrevocably what kind of country we, our children and our grandchildren will live in.
"Either Great Britain will remain in the EU, dominated by people who we do not elect, who we cannot throw out and who dictate many of the laws which govern us, or we will take back control and return to what we were: an independent country in which our parliament is elected by us, and answerable to us as the lawmaker."
Rose, who received an apology from No 10 after being included in a letter from senior military commanders warning that Brexit posed a threat to security, said: "European law, in my view, has already seriously undermined UK's combat effectiveness as a result of the intrusion of European law into national law and today our servicemen and women are in danger of becoming no more than civilians in uniform."
He said the demands of European defence policies risked undermining the effectiveness of the Nato alliance.
"I believe that the UK's contribution to European defence can manifestly be better made solely through Nato than by trying to spread our limited resources too thinly, in order to include European defence and security policy initiatives into the UK's defence programme," he said.
In an apparent swipe at David Cameron and the remain camp, Rose added: "It is something of an insult to our European partners, in particular France and Germany, to imply that UK membership of the European Union is necessary to secure future peace in Europe."
Vice-admiral Sir Jeremy Blackham, a former deputy chief of the defence staff, said the Brussels institutions were "an unacceptable and illegitimate form of government" with no intention of reforming.
Other retired officers supporting the campaign were Lt Gen Jonathon Riley, Maj Gen Tim Cross, Maj Gen Nick Vaux, Maj Gen Malcolm Hunt, R Admiral Roger Lane-Nott, Rear Admiral Conrad Jenkin, Rear Admiral Richard Heaslip and Commodore Mike Clapp.
Riley, who was deputy commander of the Isaf alliance in Afghanistan, said: "The ultimate ambition of the EU is undoubtedly EU armed forces."
He asked: "Who would control the EU armed forces? The EU commission? Can we call them to account? Can we seriously believe that our soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines should be sent into danger by a body over which we have no control, and which answers to none of us?"
Heaslip, former commander of the navy's submarine service, said: "Since its inception the EU has shown minimal interest in defence. With the exception of France, none of them can be said to have anything approaching an up-to-date all-round military capability. If the subject comes up, it is to Nato that the EU turns for help.
"The claim that the existence of the EU has saved us from war for 70 years is a myth."
He added that "the very last thing we need is to merge our defence with the EU".
The intervention comes after the prime minister used a speech this month to warn that Brexit could put peace and stability on the continent at risk.
Cameron's speech was supported by video messages from four second world war veterans including the former head of the military Field Marshal Lord Bramall.
Speaking at an event on Wednesday morning, the leading Labour MP and former army major Dan Jarvis warned that Brexit would be a boost for the Russian president, Vladimir Putin.
In remarks released beforehand he said: "This referendum is the moment to decide whether we want to be Great or little Britain.
"We face a choice between greater security and global influence as part of the EU or a period of prolonged uncertainty and permanent retrenchment by walking away."
He added: "Britain leaving the EU would undermine vital efforts for peace and stability, and rather than security it would lead to uncertainty."

Who Lost Latin America?
On the heels of the state seizure of Boliva's gas industry, Frank Gaffney points out some disturbing developments south of the border.
Gaffney's conclusion: "The consequence of all these elections [of leftist leaders in South America] may well be the complete undoing of Ronald Reagan's legacy of successfully countering and, with the notable exception of Castro's Cuba, defeating totalitarianism in our hemisphere."

Use Firefox?
Wish it were faster?
Well, here's a way to get it to be a little more snappier (theoretically). I've tried it on my machines, and I think it is noticeably faster, though it's hard to say. But it doesn't seem to hurt anything, so give it a go.
First, in a new window/tab type "about:config" into the address bar, like so:
It may tell you this will void your warranty. I didn't know they had a warranty, so... sure! I'll try to be careful.
Now, in the Filter line, type "network.http"
Find the "network.http.pipelining" and the "network.http.proxy.pipelining" lines and double click where they say "false" so they say "true."
Then find the "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" and change it from "4" to "40."
Restart Firefox.
To my knowledge, this allows Firefox to allow more processes to happen at the same time, rather than just few at a time... thereby speeding the whole thing up.
Hope that helps. Let me know if you notice a markedly faster browsing experience.

Fianna Fáil General Election candidate for Galway West Cllr. Mary Hoade has called on the Health Minister to urgently address the ongoing capacity crisis at University Hospital Galway. Despite the fact that a nurses strike scheduled for today was averted, further industrial action is still looming in January and February and as a result of the cancellation of elective surgeries today, waiting lists look set to rise.
The Annaghdown based Councillor explained, "I have seen first-hand the deplorable conditions that patients and staff in the Emergency Department are having to deal with every day and it is truly shocking. Just over two weeks ago, I along with Fianna Fáil Leader Micheál Martin, Éamon Ó Cuív TD and General Election candidate John Connolly visited the unit and met with nurses and patients and were appalled by the conditions. Children were lying on the floor, there were back to back trolleys along the corridors, and some older people were being treated in chairs. These are not acceptable conditions in a first world country.
"I am extremely worried about what will happen over the next few months, when winter takes hold and traditionally we see more people admitted to hospital. The ED at UHG is already seriously over capacity and I have grave concerns that it will reach breaking point when more people begin arriving into the Department in January and February. The meagre measures announced by Minister Leo Varadkar to date have done nothing to allieviate the pressure on the ED in Galway. There is no doubt that patient safety is at risk but nothing is being done.
"The Taoiseach himself has admitted that the Emergency Department is unfit for purpose, however he has no plans to improve it. There is no mention of UHG in the Capital Expenditure plan, so it will be at least another five years before we see any investment in the hospital under this Government. This is nothing short of disgraceful.
"The INMO is now warning that more elective surgeries will have to be cancelled if the overcrowding crisis is to be effectively tackled, leading to increased waiting times for procedures. Waiting lists at UHG are already unsustainable and all the Minister has done is shift the target times.
"The conditions at UHG are being replicated right across the country but aside from commentating on how terrible the situation is, the Health Minister and the Taoiseach have done nothing to address it. This deterioration in services cannot be allowed to continue. Frontline staff have been pushed to the limit as a result of inadequate staffing levels and a lack of investment in services. Something has to give".

"Go Ello go," that's all I seem to hear
Meanwhile sympathy for Da' Man seems everywhere but near
Sure he has no manuscript to primp and make look pretty
But the tension and stress he endures could make one jump the jetty
Don't get the Da' Man wrong, he surely wants Ello to stay afloat
For at the end of the journey he'll forget the steep climb to success in his brand new boat!
Ellos' ending would be more like:
Don't get the Da' Man wrong, he knows that opportunity will eventually knock
And at the end of the arduous journey Ello will be happy as she adores her brand new rock!

Arundel welcomed the High Sheriff of West Sussex, Caroline Nicholls, for a tour of the town, ahead of this year's Community Awards ceremony.
It was an opportunity to meet some of the independent traders and others who do so much to support the town.
Arundel mayor Lucy Ashworth said: "I was keen to invite the High Sheriff of West Sussex and her consort to the town to show them some of the independent traders in the town and how they support our community groups.
"We are immensely proud of what the town has to offer, at all times of the year in terms of heritage, culture, attractions and independent eateries and shops combined with our fantastic community spirit."
The mayor and High Sheriff were joined by committee chairmen from Arundel Town Council for high tea in front of a cosy wood fire at Belinda's Tearooms.
They then met residents in the King's Arms pub, which demonstrates a fantastic sense of community through events for charity.
The group also visited the delicatessen, butcher and Arundel Trophies, which sponsored the new Young Person's Commendation award this year.
At the Victoria Institute, the High Sheriff met John Paton and learned about plans to develop the building as a community arts centre. They looked at the refurbished Red Room, where plays are performed, and John outlined all the various groups who currently use 'The Vic', such as youth theatre, Akin creative group, ballet and yoga.
The High Sheriff later joined residents and community group leaders at the Town Hall to acknowledge their contribution to Arundel life. Guests were treated to a celebratory drink and mince pies, provided by the Arundel Co-op, before the winner of the 2018 Arundel Community Award was announced.
Residents submitted nominations to the town council, which made the final decision and this year's winner was an active couple, Geoff and Pauline Allen.
Geoff was nominated for his work with the Rotary Club, the Holmes Foundation and as a magistrate. Pauline has contributed to the town through her work with the NSPCC, as a governor at St Philip's School, committee member of the Arundelles and a trustee of Ford Prison.
The mayor added: "The Community Award night is a wonderful chance to thank the many people who enrich people's lives through sharing a skill, passion or time they give to others.
"Geoff and Pauline are such deserving winners and have done so much for the town over many years.
"I was also delighted to present a new award, Young Person Commendation, as I am keen for the young people to have a voice in the community and for them to understand they have an important role to play.
"I was glad to have Nigel Lynn, chief executive of Arun District Council, attend as we will be working with ADC to deliver improvements to our local parks and we received over 200 drawings to assist with this."
Emily Carman from Arundel Church of England Primary School, Daisy Jenkins from St Philip's Catholic Primary School and William Lintott-Clarke received a trophy and the council thanked all the children who part.
Town crier Angela Standing also received a gift for her continued role in the town.
It was a super evening with music from Colin Baxter and Will Hall, local musicians who are proving to be international stars in Germany.

as a sequel to Why and How Fly Rods Break once again Tim Rajeff explains the how and whys of rod failures in a simple yet concise manner. as noted in the video, it is indeed possible to have manufacturing inconsistencies but most if not all manufacturers do stress tests before assembling or shipping out so, yup, they're almost always angler-induced.
from part 1 "so, why do rods break ? it can be through improper use under load or by banging it with a fly (vulgarly referred to as 'Clousering'). another reason i suspect and something i rarely hear about, because nobody wants to admit it…
is a lot of anglers damage them when they're not even fishing or casting. bings and bangs during transport, throwing them down (yes, throwing them down… ), the ever-present beer and it's consequent mind-numbing and slipping and sliding effects and who knows what else, must account for a lot of "huh ?! WTF happened ?" reactions when they're using them for real later on. in a sense, they're recreating a 'Clousering' without even having the fun of casting ! "
'nuff words and guilt-trips, let's sit back and enjoy watching Tim break some rods for us !

Would you like a piece of cake right now? For Goodness Cake is here for you. Every week, we'll be sharing recipes that prove why cake should be its own food group.
Today: This cake recipe comes from someone who's made it "like 238,222 times." After tasting it, you'll be eager to beat her record.
There comes a time in life when you will be sick of cake. You will say no when someone offers it to you (and when that doesn't work, you'll be adamant about refusing seconds). There also comes a time in life—but this is only hearsay—when you might even be sick of dessert in general. Let's hope that these are both passing phases.
I recently found myself in a cake slump. I was saddened by my temperamental oven; I had exceeded my "tender," "crumby," "soft," and "easy" quota; I was introduced to Prinssesstårta—a Swedish layer cake made up of sponge cake, pastry cream, a whipped cream dome, and a marzipan topcoat—and almost had a heart attack. I just wanted to make cookies. Or—here's a wild idea—vegetables.
And yet, the world was still turning, time was still ticking, and the people (at least those more vital than I), still wanted cake. The only kind I could imagine making, eating, and cleaning up after was one baked straight from my pantry, with no risks and no hype—the green tea and bone broth ancient grain cake would have to wait.
Luckily, I was holding onto a recipe for Almond Coffee Cake from our home and design editor Amanda Sims. It was waiting in the wings all along, a quiet understudy twiddling its perfect little thumbs.
It took about five minutes to make the batter, and the hardest part would have been sifting the flour had I done that (save yourself some time and just whisk it well before measuring). I couldn't wait the recommended hour before slicing into the almond-cobbled top, which I took to be the first indication that I was on the mend.
And, as is almost always the case, eating the warm cake was much better than staring at it. I've always wished there were a chewier and more socially acceptable way to eat marzipan, and here it is—plus there's only 1 teaspoon of almond extract in the entire thing. No marzipan! No almond meal! Let's all celebrate and have a good time! Baking the cake in a shallow pan—like a cast-iron skillet or a pie pan—produces a crackly top and firm, sugar cookie-like edges.
I guess I should've trusted Amanda all along: She first sent me this recipe along with the claim that her mom, Jeanie, has made it "like 238,222 times." Jeanie makes the cake, the original recipe for which is from the Junior League of Knoxville's cookbook Tennessee Tables and contributed by Judith Stephens Frost (Mrs. Robert B.), to eat and gift every year for Christmas. It freezes well, so bake two and stash one away; as Jeanie says, it's "always a special treat to find a forgotten one in the freezer in the summer." This is insider information, but Amanda tells me her dad is known to eat it straight from the freezer, shaved into thin slices and with equal-sized slices of cold butter. I like the way he thinks.

That's great. Thanks for the info on locations. I love this movie and had wondered where it was filmed. Glad to see some locations still exist.ReplyDelete

Awesome job on this made-for-tv classic! However, there's another location to add: Mrs. Bunch's boarding house, where Hazelrigg lived. It's right on the southwest corner of Main St and Center St. That same building was also used as the Sunnyvale Rest Home in the 1983 Twilight Zone movie.ReplyDelete
Very cool I love this movie. I wish they'd remake it as a big budget movie. But keep it as close to the original as they could. Or Marvel would do it using their Scarecrow supernatural character. Who was sort of a Ghostrider character. From Dead of the Night #11 Aug 1975.ReplyDelete

More Women Than Men Are Finishing Postgraduate Degrees In Science And Technology
A new report on Women in NSW Education has revealed that a larger number of women than men are completing postgraduate degrees in the fields of science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM).
The report, released by the Minister for Women, Pru Goward, analysed and compared data on male and female university graduates from 2014.
The data shows that 32.9% of women who completed a postgraduate course did one in an STEM related field, while 30.7% of men who completed a postgraduate course did one in an STEM field. The most popular of these fields for women were Health (including Nursing) which held a 73.6% majority to women, and Natural and Physical Sciences, which held a 54.7% advantage to women.
RELATED: Single Women Are Struggling In The Melbourne And Sydney Housing Markets, Reports Say
Meanwhile, for undergraduate courses, STEM programs were less popular for women than men, however they still made up the majority of completions, with 55% of STEM undergraduate completions being women. This is due to the fact that more university students were women overall (they made up 59.9% of undergraduate completions and 60.1% of postgraduate completions).
Perhaps the most concerning result to come out of the data is that there is still a pay gap between median male and female graduate salaries. In 2015, the starting salary for women was $52,000, compared with $55,000 for men (a $3000 gap). This gap has widened since 2006, when it was $1000, but has narrowed since 2012, when it was $5000.
The Sydney Morning Herald reports that Pru Goward has suggested that encouraging more women into STEM courses could help close this gap.
"If we want to achieve gender equity and a more diverse workforce, we need to continue encouraging girls to study STEM subjects and work in industries reliant on those skills," she said.
RELATED: Today, The Gender Pay Gap Is The Highest It's Been Since 1995
"Careers reliant on the study of STEM subjects can earn women up to double the salaries of vocations women have traditionally pursued."
While the report has revealed some interesting progress, it seems women still have a way to go when it comes to STEM involvement. Currently in NSW, people studying primary school education can opt to specialise in STEM subjects, and Women NSW is also providing funding to help NSW organisations develop programs to support the economic empowerment and leadership of women in several fields.

Pets are a very vital part of our families. Dogs especially are known to be mans best friend. They act as companions for adults and they play with kids helping them both psychologically and physically. Pet's day school is any place you can take your dog or any other pet to be trained, groomed and boarded. It helps both the dog and its owner to live harmoniously. The dog is trained good behavior, tactics and the owner is shown how to wash the dog and various ways of boarding him. You don't need to create a brand new boarding facility or search to rent construction dumpster options in the area- there are reliable services near you. There are various grades in pet's day school for both the dog and the owner and they move on after mastering the previous ones. This training is very useful since it ensures that pet owner bonds well with the dog.

Turn to the hunting equipment and hunting apparel that skilled hunters trust. In addition, hunting is subject to the rules and regulations of the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife (MassWildlife ), which is the primary agency that oversees the state hunting system. According to the International Hunter Education Association, there are dozens of deaths and hundreds of injuries attributed to hunting in the U.S. just about every year—and that quantity only consists of incidents involving humans. Take my friend Jim Tantillo, for instance, a professor of philosophy at Cornell University who wrote his dissertation on hunting.
Self-assurance Inspiring Stability – Ridiculous stability provides self-assurance: for shooting straight ahead or to the sides for deploying and retrieving decoys and for dogs jumping into the water and climbing back in the boat. The reality that there are 30 million deer in the U.S. despite years of hunting shows that killing animals is not an effective way to manage populations. Meadow Walker, the only daughter of Paul Walker with Rebecca McBrain, walked barefoot along a Santa Barbara beach 1 day after her father's funeral on Sunday (December 15, 2013).
While there are certain providers who offer you lessons at no price at all to women, the ones that are complete and come with assured benefits require a particular amount to be paid at the time of on the web enrolment. Quail hide in deep cover, so unless you accidentally stroll up" a covey, you will not have much luck finding the birds devoid of very good hunting dogs. It's totally devoted to the practice and terminology of hunting in 16th century England, with particular interest paid to all the sport" vocabulary in Shakespeare. Send Flowers to Paris by means of different on the net shops for your dear ones for whom you actually care.
Because wildlife agencies are funded by excise taxes on hunting and fishing equipment and by revenue from the sale of licenses, hunters—who constitute a tiny percentage of Americans—enjoy a disproportionate say in how wild locations and the animals who inhabit them are managed. This beach can be a gold mine if you hit it at the proper time, or at least a light silver mine! There is presumed to be fairly quite tiny subsistence hunting in the country (with most hunting for either sport or industrial profit). As a pragmatist, I do not think it is the only valid way" to fully grasp hunting.
Making use of dogs to chase wild mammals was produced illegal in February 2005 by the Hunting Act 2004 there had been a quantity of exemptions (below which the activity may well not be illegal) in the act for hunting with hounds, but no exemptions at all for hare-coursing. I agree, Ingrid, that there is import in examining the wherefores and the whys of hunting and those who hunt.
Most federal and state agencies that are charged with managing wildlife refuges, national forests, state parks, and other public lands are funded in portion by hunting and fishing activities, so agency personnel normally go out of their way to encourage these activities rather than regulate or police them. A British study of deer hunting discovered that 11 {e8c1767feb8d158cc913108a283486231b720ade7a8f4d84dbc625e34e459de6} of deer killed by hunters died only immediately after being shot two or additional instances and that some wounded deer suffered for a lot more than 15 minutes prior to dying.

Three parties need to agree before All Blacks can play in the Brisbane Tens, according to players' union head Rob Nichol.
Promoters Duco and rugby bosses are in the spotlight following revelations that star players who are spearheading tournament advertisements could be a no-show in Brisbane.
Jerome Kaino, Israel Dagg and Damian McKenzie are in advertisements promoting the tournament on February 11 and 12.
At the time of the tournament announcement on December 1, McKenzie was quoted saying: "I can't wait to get over there and get stuck into it. With so many great teams and great players involved it is going to be incredible."
Read more: All Blacks won't play at Brisbane Global Tens
The collective agreement between the players and New Zealand Rugby gives a mandatory 12-week break to current All Blacks, precluding them from taking part unless there were special circumstances. The All Blacks' final 2016 test was on November 27, and the players face a massive year because of the Lions series.
Dispensations are only given if there is unanimous agreement between a player, his franchise and the NZR. Nichol said the controversy around the advertisements and promotion "was not my area". Duco may have "genuinely held out hopes that there may be a few players (available)".
Radio Sport Breakfast: NZ Rugby Players' Association head Rob Nichol
Nichol said: "At the end of the day they (the players) want to play rugby and if you let them they could play ever week until they fell over.
"Duco worked very hard to pull together the Brisbane 10s...they've known from the outset All Blacks on the end of year tour had no obligation to play, and only could if everyone agreed. We have the big picture in mind.
"The one thing southern hemisphere and in particular New Zealand rugby has done pretty well is managing the workload. Maybe franchises were holding out hope some players would play certain parts. I understand there will be none from the end of year tour. Maybe in future...but this year it has proved too much."
