FOOTBALL LEAGUE expert Mark O'Haire (@MarkOHaire) runs the rule over the final day of action in League One on Sunday.
Fleetwood v Port Vale | Sunday 12:00
What a difference a year makes…
This time last year Fleetwood were surviving relegation to League Two on the final day of the season but as League One reaches its conclusion on Sunday, the Cod Army are on the brink of promotion to the Championship.
Manager Steven Pressley walked away from Highbury last summer and with Uwe Rosler only arriving at the Fylde coast three days before the campaign kicked-off, many pundits suggested Town were destined to another season of struggle.
Rosler spoke of wishing to instil a top-six mentality despite being given the job of ensuring Fleetwood's League One status for the third successive season. But the German has transformed the club's core and revolutionised performances on the pitch.
Everything from the training structure, the recovery sessions, to the food the players eat has been revamped by Rosler. The Cod Army now play a modern 3-5-2 system and could even pinch the final automatic promotion place should they win here and Bolton lose at home to Peterborough.
Quoted as 14/1 outsiders for promotion pre-season, even finishing third would be considered a heroic achievement and Fleetwood's players aren't willing to down tools ahead of a potential play-off schedule.
Sunday's hosts have found their feet after a sticky patch to pocket maximum points from their past three outings – the latter of which was a last-gasp 3-2 success at Gillingham. Having beaten six of eight visitors from the bottom-nine at Highbury, I fancy the Cod Army to take top honours here.
The Fylde coast club have been victorious in 10 of their last 16 as hosts and have plenty of motivation to send struggling Port Vale down too. Town were beaten 2-1 at Vale Park in November's reverse fixture, when Alex Jones used a hand to score the late winner.
That was the catalyst for Town's 18-game unbeaten run in League One and the manner of the loss hasn't been forgotten at Highbury.
Vale know they must win here to stand any chance of avoiding relegation whilst hoping Gillingham fail to beat Northampton away. The visitors have W1-D4-L11 in their last 16 away days and have also been beaten in 12 of their most recent 15 trips to the top-six.
Michael Brown's men scored their first league goal in 556 minutes when beating Walsall in midweek to keep their survival hopes alive but the Valiants haven't claimed back-to-back away wins since March 2015 and my ratings easily rank the visitors amongst the worst three clubs in the division.
Fleetwood have already broken records this season and I don't expect the high-flying hosts to freeze on the final day. The 3/4 (Marathon) available on a home triumph is too good to ignore.
Northampton v Gillingham | Sunday 12:00
Northampton manager Justin Edinburgh has promised his relegation-haunted former club Gillingham no favours at Sixfields on Sunday as the visitors seek League One survival on the final day of the campaign.
The Kent club were 17th in the table – one below the Cobblers – and eight points above the drop zone when they decided to dismiss Edinburgh. Ady Pennock was installed as the new boss and suggested a play-off push could be possible.
But the visitors are just a point clear of the relegation zone having collected only four wins in 20 matches. Should they fail to pick up a victory here, they'll be relying on results elsewhere to go their way.
I wouldn't be touching Gillingham here. No League One club has conceded more away goals (49) this season and Pennock's posse haven't recorded a clean sheet in 24 on their travels. They've lost six of their past eight and been beaten in seven of eight trips to fellow bottom-half clubs.
To make matters worse, midfielder Bradley Dack has seen his appeal against an additional two-match ban thrown out whilst Scott Wagstaff, Bradley Garmston and Aaron Morris remain sidelined. Chris Herd could return but Joe Quigley remains a doubt.
For Northampton, Neal Eardley could miss out and John Joe O'Toole is an absentee but David Buchanan is back from a ban as the Cobblers bid to sign-off in style at Sixfields.
Edinburgh met the board and out of contract players in midweek to discuss rebuilding the squad but for now the Town supremo is hoping to conclude the campaign by sending his old club down.
Again, I've no real interest in the Match Odds here – Northampton have won six of their last nine at home to bottom-six clubs but are winless in seven – and instead I'll focus on the goals markets for what could be a frantic and thrilling final day shootout.
Collectively these two clubs have conceded 152 goals this term – that's an average of 1.69 per-game – whilst 59/90 (66%) of their combined League One encounters have delivered in the Over 2.5 Goals market.
We can back Over 2.5 Goals and Both Teams To Score at 17/20 (Coral). Looking only at their respective home/away records, the Over 2.5 Goals side has landed on 33/44 (75%) occasions with Both Teams To Score banking in 31/44 (70%) matches.
Bristol Rovers v Millwall | Sunday 12:00
Millwall manager claims he knew the Millwall team he will name for Sunday's crunch clash at Bristol Rovers before last weekend's 3-0 defeat to Oxford had ended.
The Lions have to win at The Memorial Stadium to eliminate any doubt about losing sixth spot to either Southend or Rochdale but head west on the back of a number of disappointing displays.
Harris has attempted to rally the troops in the week after being deeply disappointed by this side's effort at Oxford. The Millwall boss said his team "lost a lot of individual battles" in a lackadaisical and flat performance.
The Londoners have now fired blanks in each of their past two encounters – they haven't failed to score in three consecutively in the third tier since May 1999 – and head into this match with only three wins in 10 since their FA Cup exit.
In fact, Millwall's form has nosedived since that mauling at Tottenham. Before visiting White Hart Lane, the Lions had recorded 11 clean sheets in 13; they've since recorded two shutouts in 10 and failed to net in five.
Harris' charges have managed a sole success on the road at clubs in 15th and above and are taking on a Bristol Rovers outfit that's only lost three times at the Memorial Stadium all season and boasted the best home record in the country over the past three campaigns.
The Lions have centre-back Sam Hutchinson rated as doubtful having suffered a cracked rib against Fleetwood on Easter Monday. Harris will make a late call on the defender but his absence could prove pivotal; Millwall have lost just one of the 14 matches Hutchinson's been involved in this season.
Nevertheless, I'm keen to oppose Millwall here with Bristol Rovers +0.50 Asian Handicap a bet at 9/11 (BetVictor). It's a selection that will see us paid out if the Pirates avoid defeat.
Defeat at Peterborough last weekend ended the Gas' own play-off aspirations and although this game is a dead-rubber, there's still plenty to play for.
Rovers are guaranteed a top-10 finish in League One this season – a remarkable achievement coming on the back of successive promotions from non-league – and will want to finish on a high in front of an expected sell-out crowd.
Head coach Darrell Clarke has said before that his squad are playing for their future at the club, and that could be truer than ever ahead of the curtain call of the campaign on Sunday. The Gas should relish their underdog role as they hunt a 10th win from 13 home (W9-D2-L0) fixtures.
Should they take maximum points, it'll be their best return of wins at this level since 1995 and their squad hasn't too many injury concerns either.
Supporters player of the year Ollie Clarke faces a late fitness test and striker Rory Gaffney should be included after his late double last weekend. Meanwhile, England U20 defender Jake Clarke-Salter is in the Rovers squad for the final time before returning to parent club Chelsea.
Best Bets
Fleetwood v Port Vale – Fleetwood to win (3/4 Marathon)
Northampton v Gillingham – Over 2.5 Goals and Both Teams To Score (17/20 Coral)
Bristol Rovers v Millwall – Bristol Rovers +0.50 Asian Handicap (9/11 BetVictor)

I'm looking for a dish my gma made. She came to America from Slovakia and I loved her cooking. It was called (spelling wrong I'm sure) Eaternitchke. I think it had rice vegetables and pulled pork or beef. It was so good.

Internet companies are allowing their networks to be used to plot "murder and mayhem", David Cameron has said in response to the official inquiry into the intelligence agencies' actions before the killing of Lee Rigby.
He demanded that internet companies live up to their social responsibilities to report potential terror threats and said there was no reason for such firms to be willing to cooperate with state agencies over child abuse but not over combatting terrorism.
His comments to the House of Commons came after the parliamentary intelligence and security committee (ISC) concluded that the brutal murder of Rigby could have been prevented if an internet company had passed on an online exchange in which one of the killers expressed "in the most graphic terms" his intention to carry out an Islamist jihadi attack.
Praising the agencies as silent heros, he nevertheless admitted there had been errors by the agencies since both of Rigby's murderers, Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale, had been known to the security services for some time.
The 191-page report by the ISC says that if MI5 had had access to the exchange between one of the killers, Adebowale, and an extremist overseas, Adebowale would have become a top surveillance priority. By failing to alert the authorities, the company had, "however unintentionally", provided a "safe haven for terrorists".
The intelligence agencies, MI6 as well as MI5, meanwhile escaped with only light criticism despite the fact that they were monitoring both men. The intelligence committee, which is headed by the former foreign secretary Malcolm Rifkind, found that MI5, broadly responsible for domestic intelligence, had made errors but that the murder would have happened even if the errors had not.
Cameron announced an extra £130m over two years for intelligence agencies to deal with self-starter terrorists, as well as to fund the Prevent programme for tackling radicalisation and counter-terror policing. He disclosed that he would give the role of the security services commissioner a statutory basis, providing guidance on the treatment of terrorist suspects, including those held by counter-terror units overseas with which the UK co-operates.
The government already has a code on treatment of suspects but the current commissioner, Sir Mark Waller, will have a new power to report on the treatment of detainees.
Cameron said there was no possible justification for US internet providers not to inform agencies of terrorist activity since they already cancelled the accounts of suspected terrorists.
This summer, the government updated its legislation to require internet companies to cooperate with the state and report potential terrorist activity, but he said the level of cooperation was not satisfactory.
However, he admitted there was legal uncertainty about the duty of internet companies based in the US to cooperate with UK agencies due to conflicting laws in the US. The company that did not inform the agencies has not been named by the government.
In its report the committee found the response of MI6, responsible for overseas intelligence-gathering, in dealing with the other killer, Michael Adebolajo, to be inadequate. But overall there was little that the two agencies could have done to prevent the attack, the report says.
Rigby had been returning home on 22 May 2013 at the end of a shift at an army recruiting office at the Tower of London when he was hit by a car driven by Adebolajo in Woolwich, south London. The two killers then attacked the soldier with knives.
The committee inquiry was set up to investigate the role of the intelligence agencies, which had the two men under surveillance. The report says the two men appeared between them in seven different agency investigations but were for the most part regarded as low-level subjects of interest.
"There were errors in these operations, where processes were not followed, decisions not recorded, or delays encountered. However, we do not consider that any of these errors, taken individually, were significant enough to have made a difference," the report says.
"Adebolajo was a high priority for MI5 during two operations: they put significant effort into investigating him and employed a broad range of intrusive techniques. None of these revealed any evidence of attack planning.
"By contrast, Michael Adebowale was never more than a low-level SoI [subject of interest] and the agencies took appropriate action based on the rigorous threshold set down in law: they had not received any intelligence that Adebowale was planning an attack and, based on that evidence, more intrusive action would not have been justified."
The committee says that at any time MI5 is investigating several thousand individuals who are linked to Islamist activities in the UK.
Cameron has already appointed his national security adviser, Sir Nigel Sheinwald, as his special envoy on intelligence and law enforcement data-sharing to try to improve cooperation with US firms.
The former Labour foreign secretary Jack Straw said the leadership of some internet firms had a cultural problem and they were gripped by a "distorted libertarian ideology that allows them to feel they can detach themselves from the state".
Cameron agreed with Straw's description and said he planned to lead a debate with internet firms.
The prime minister said: "We must not accept that these communications are beyond the reach of the authorities or the internet companies themselves.
"We have taken action. We have passed legislation. And we will continue to do everything we can.
"We expect the internet companies to do all they can too. Their networks are being used to plot murder and mayhem. It is their social responsibility to act on this. And we expect them to live up to it."
Cameron did not announce any new legal powers beyond those to be included in the counter-terror bill to be published on Wednesday. It is likely the bill was framed with knowledge of the central conclusions of the ISC report.
Downing Street sources said Cameron did not expect to make any more progress on communication data laws this side of a general election. But he made clear his support for greater powers for the agencies, saying: "Are we prepared to have a means of communication using the internet which we do not have the means to intercept? My answer is no."

European car makers are still fudging emission tests
But this time they are making cars look dirtier, not cleaner.
One might think that European car makers would have learned something from the last emissions scandal that almost sunk Volkswagen and destroyed diesel. But in fact, they are still at it. But this time it is different; instead of making their cars look cleaner, they are actually trying make them look dirtier.
The European Commission is demanding that car makers reduce emissions by 15 percent between 2020 and 2025, so instead of making their emissions look artificially low, they now want them to look higher, so that the reductions are easier to achieve since they are starting at a higher base point. According to Patrick McGee in the Financial Times, the commission's Joint Research Centre (JRC) found that test vehicles were configured to inflate emissions.
Detailed test data from two vehicles found what appeared to be deliberate distortion: "Tests were carried out starting with a depleted battery, so that additional fuel was consumed to charge the battery during the test," the JRC wrote. The stop-start function — a system to shut down the engine when idle to cut emissions — was disabled. The JRC also found "gear-shifting strategies" in which cars were driven in gears that would cause a "significant" rise in CO2 emissions.
This apparently caused emissions to appear between 4.5 and 13 percent over their normal configurations. They do not say which car makers in particular are the villains here, just that the authorities are not amused, saying, "We don't like tricks." They will look for "measured values, not those declared by the carmakers" and will monitor enforcement.
The EU is demanding that emissions be reduced by 30 percent by 2030; given that these numbers are so meaningless, perhaps they should reconsider and demand 100 percent reductions; surely in 12 years we could go all electric.

Rad Coffee in Upland California
I saw a video of the neat drinks at this coffee shop and knew I had to go check it out. I hit it up on Saturday before heading out to Pasadena. I absolutely love kitschy stuff. I love themed restaurants and events. This was a neat idea. The walls are covered in posters for different punk rock bands. It was very cool to see all the bands on the walls and where they played and who they played with. I enjoyed how small and friendly the shop was. There was a huge line out the door to get drinks and the employees were super fast to get out the drinks. I didn't even wait more then 1-2 minutes after I ordered my drink.
The drinks were super delicious and totally worth the wait. I really enjoyed going and can't wait to go again. The colored whipped cream tastes like the frosting on a cupcake just a little less rich. It's super neat that they have so many different flavors for you to try. I will definitely be getting one of the specialty drinks the next time I go.
The shop is small but cozy and I hope that they are able to keep up with sales so that we may see it around for a while. The street that they are located on is a great little downtown with lots of fun shops to see and a theatre that does live plays. There is a lot of things to do for a date night. Why not make it an evening and get yourself a really rad drink. I took a picture of the fun drinks so you can see what kind of creations they are coming up with.

Jim Davila reports (in PaleoJudaica) about a pamphlet the Israeli military rabbinate passed out for Hanukkah, with a picture in it supposedly of Jerusalem in the days of the Second Temple. The accompanying photo, however, was a photoshopped image of the Temple Mount/Haram al-Sharif with the Dome of the Rock removed and covered with a wispy ridge of clouds, while still preserving an image of the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the right hand side of the page. The far northern edge of the Dome of the Rock plaza is also still there.
Haaretz reported:
Israel's military rabbinate released an educational document ahead of the holiday of Hanukkah last month, featuring a photo of Jerusalem's Temple Mount without the Dome of the Rock, Haaretz learned on Thursday.
The photo was featured in a packet prepared by the Military Rabbinate issued to Israel Defense Forces bases ahead of Hanukkah, under the section titled "The Festival of Jewish Heroism," which included an article and a quiz on the Jewish struggle against Hellenistic rule.
The photograph is by Mikhail Levit, and I took it from Elder of Ziyon, who found the source. It is from a series of photographs of the Kotel by Levit (available on Jerusalem Shots). None of the other photographs erase the Dome of the Rock.
The IDF explained that the picture lacked the Dome of the Rock because it was "meant to illustrate Jerusalem during the period of the Second Temple. 'As was explained to the reporter, the Dome of the Rock did not exist at that time, so there was no need for it to appear in the picture,' the IDF said." As Jim said, this explanation is "ridiculous." The picture still has the Al Aqsa mosque in it, as well as the modern Kotel plaza with worshipers on the men's and women's sides – something that did not exist during the Second Temple period. No one could mistake this for a picture of Jerusalem in Second Temple times.
So the question is – why did the military rabbinate create a pamphlet for Hanukkah that used a photo that photoshopped away the Dome of the Rock on the Temple Mount? Was this genuinely an attempt to create an image from the Second Temple period? If so, why not photoshop in an image of the Temple and by the way eliminate the Al Aqsa mosque as well? Also – if this is depicting the Second Temple of Maccabean times, the Kotel shouldn't be there at all, since it was only when Herod had the Second Temple rebuilt that the platform was expanded in size and the retaining walls were built to support it. Or why not just use a painting of the Second Temple and remove any doubt about what was being depicted.
Could the rabbinate's use of this image be a hint towards the hope that the Dome of the Rock should be removed and replaced by the Third Temple? In that case, we might expect to see some kind of image of the rebuilt Temple.
It would be useful to see the entire pamphlet – perhaps that would answer these questions.

I woke up this morning to tens of condolence messages, as did so many Bowie fans today. Not just "Oh Damn", but, like so many others around the world from what I have seen on the news, people leaving messages for all big Bowie fans feeling pain for our loss.
I thought I wouldn't be able to find words today. After all, it is a nightmare when the first words you hear upon waking is "David Bowie is dead."
It's a joke. A hoax. Another death troll. And then there was this:
Very sorry and sad to say it's true. I'll be offline for a while. Love to all. pic.twitter.com/Kh2fq3tf9m
— Duncan Jones (@ManMadeMoon) January 11, 2016
It had been his 69th birthday on Friday. A milestone. For those of us with senses of humour.
Inasmuch as I am broken right now, I am so grateful that David Robert Jones decided to pursue art. Decided that the fight that took the vision from his eye and left it paralyzed did not stop him in pursing what he needed to do to live. Music. Acting. Art. Regardless of how much or how little it sold, how successful or unsuccessful, how much people liked or didn't like it, he continued. He did what he wanted to do his way, and he made it all so fucking cool.
David Bowie was cool because he was. He didn't try to be cool. He was just himself. To an extent. He kept his real self hidden deep below the personae he portrayed in public. That led to serious substance abuse, self-doubt, naiveté when it came to the business side – remember, this is the man who lost EVERYTHING because of scoundrels in the music industry. This was the man who got sole custody of his son in 1978 at a time when judges didn't even contemplate that a mother could be a poor influence. This is a man who wasn't afraid to say he was gay or bi or wear makeup or have long hair at a time when much of society had never even seen a gay or transgendered person.
And he got it all back. His money. His confidence. After years of being someone else on stage, he finally showed his face, but it was still the face we wanted, and often needed, to see. Even in the last video for Lazarus, with his well-worn face, it was the visage we needed for reassurance that all was not lost in the world of originality or creativity. We would not be washed over with monotony. His last light to shine, while the last thing he kept from us was the cancer that was taking him away.
And he got it all back. His money. His confidence. After years of being someone else on stage, he finally showed his face, but it was still the face we wanted, and often needed, to see.

We would not be washed over with monotony. His last light to shine, while the last thing he kept from us was the cancer that was taking him away.
In the background I have a bootleg going of the 1995 Outside tour with Nine Inch Nails. This is still one of the best live extravaganzas I had the honour and pleasure of attending. How much has young Trent grown in those 20 years. How much did that tour confirm that Bowie would always be the master of the rock and roll stage?
There are a million tributes to Bowie in as many languages today. They started last week with the release of Blackstar. And what a way to go – Bowie entered our collective consciousness on his own terms, and he left on his own terms. How many people can say that?
For me, Bowie wasn't just a schoolgirl or teenage crush that fades. My love, admiration, respect, and adoration for Bowie grew as I grew. Whenever I have been stuck creatively, I don't look to other writers as much as I look to musicians, and of those, it's David Bowie I go back to, time and time again. WWDBD. Absolutely.
Bowie wasn't afraid to fail. He took those failures and turned them into lessons learned. He helped other artists to know not to make the same mistakes. He went with his creative gut instinct no matter how things turned out.
All that and more comes out in Blackstar. That poor album is going to be dissected to death like some type of Shakespearean play now. Don't get me wrong – Blackstar is brilliant, it is woefully prophetic, heartbreaking in places. But it is an album and a thank you gift. This should not be taken apart. It
should be accepted as it was presented, just as we accepted the man, and we should accept ourselves.
I wrote this on my personal Facebook page as a status for what will always be my Christmas Day, January 8th, and it sums up how I will always feel:
Happy 69th Birthday to the one and only David Bowie. Thank you for everything you have done. You are my god of creativity and pretty well all of life. I hope that one day I can have the same kind of courage with my artistry that you do, and have it even be 1/4 as masterful. Oh and thanks for the gift of Blackstar today.
Rest In Peace, David. Enjoy the incredible jam session you're about to walk into, and steal the entire show.

As planetary geologists, we seek answers to some of the most fundamental scientific questions, including: What is the history of the terrestrial planets? How does life affect the geologic records of planets? In our solar system, the geologic records preserved on terrestrial planets and icy moons attest to the volatility of habitability through time. Using a variety of approaches such as field and laboratory studies, in situ and remote sensing data analysis, and analog experiments and numerical modeling, we aim to unravel the physics of surface and subsurface processes that shape rocky and icy bodies, and ultimately, what their rocks and landforms tell us about past hydrology, climate, and habitability.
Prof. Lapôtre is always looking for motivated students and postdocs to join his lab and work on exciting projects related to planetary surface processes and planetary exploration.
Graduate studies: The application deadline to the graduate program for a start in the Fall of 2020 is January 7, 2020 (see here). Prospective students interested in joining our lab to apply concepts of process geomorphology, physical sedimentology, and spectroscopy to the study of planetary surfaces and rocks (including those of Earth) are encouraged to contact Prof. Lapôtre.
Postdoctoral research: Prospective postdoctoral scholars interested in applying their expertise to the study of planetary surfaces and exploration are invited to contact Prof. Lapôtre to discuss potential projects and funding avenues.
Contact Prof. Lapôtre @ mlapotre at stanford.edu.

I know that you are fully in "unleash the data" mode at the moment, however, do you have any thoughts on what your response will be regarding Chorus's new fibre plans they have indicated they will release? I remember there was indications of a different one being released early this year which didn't eventuate, however, this one seems like it will happen.
I see that Slingshot will be upgrading all 30/10 customers to 100/20 plans free of charge for a year (http://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/BU1405/S00496/slingshot-welcome-chorus-fibre-plans.htm) hint hint:-)
Presumably the other LFC have or will have similar offerings to enable a nationwide launch?

Caroline Mulcahy from 2Mummys2Daddys spoke to me about her Online Baby Store:
What was your motivation for creating your website? "My motivation to create 2Mummys2Daddys was simple, my love and passion for my community & babies!"
Why a baby store for the LGBTIQ Community? "Because… I wanted to launch a unique online store in support of my community. A store where you can find cute, groovy, funky & good quality gifts for any baby or child from any family! My vision came to life after many conversations with gay & lesbian friends who had children, were expecting their first child, were planning a family or were family & friends of same sex couples with children whom they wanted to buy for".
Tell us about your collection? "I wanted to bring a brand to the LGBTIQ Community that was unique & colourful. My vision was all about incorporating the colours of the rainbow being our 'pride flag' of the LGBTIQ community to my designs. My jumpsuits are very popular, especially the "Funky Headphones" and "Made with Pride Barcode".
My favourites would be "Baby Pride" Jumpsuit - with the baby in a rainbow nappy and our back sacks!
Our back sacks are a must have in all parent bags especially the 2pack - "The Stinky Stuff" and "The Clean Stuff". These have proven to be very popular! Just a simple bag but very handy. We have had parents using these for kids school camps – pack one with "clean stuff", and teach them to put all their dirty clothes in the "Stinky Stuff".
What is your aim for 2Mummys 2Daddys? "To be effective, efficient, reliable and friendly service every time. I strive to make the online shopping experience easy, convenient, smooth but most of all FUN!"
Anything else? Yes! 2Mummys 2Daddys is all about a sense of Community! Love! Laughter & Pride! Now stop reading and get shopping!
So, if you are interested in checking out some GLBTI inspired products for your new baby, head on over to 2Mummys2Daddys to check it out.

These statistics come from data analyzed by Erie Insurance housed in the Fatality Analysis Reporting System, a nationwide census of fatal motor vehicle traffic crashes maintained by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Erie Insurance consulted with the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety in its analysis.

First of all, I have a serious sweet tooth and I loooove muffins, but I also love chocolate. The bad part is that muffins are so stinking high in calories though since they are full of sugar and don't do anything good for you! I randomly found this recipe online and thought I'd give it a try and I was rather pleased with how they turned out.

Product: Vetericyn Plus
Price: $9.68-29.27 (depending on size and type)
Cheapest Place to Buy: Amazon.com
Rating: 4.8/5.0
Vetericyn Plus is produced by a company, Innovacyn, Inc., which since 2009 has been a leader in creating innovative medicinal solutions and advancements in both the human and animal healthcare industry. The claim says "it is 100% non-toxic, contains no steroids, no antibiotics, no alcohols and no tea tree oil and is safe to use around the eyes, ears and mouth of your pet." There are no known side effects and it causes no harm to healthy tissue. It is recommended to be used on hot spots, scratches, skin rashes, skin ulcers, cuts, burns and eye and ear maintenance (it's pH balance makes this possible).
There are several different forms including eye wash (I personally have not had success in bovine pinkeye but it is useful in surface corneal ulcers in dogs), ear rinse and ophthalmic gel. For topical wounds, there is a liquid and a gel form (which I feel works better on most wounds). Vetericyn can also be used in many species including dogs, cats, exotics (including birds and reptiles)
, horses (will not test in performance or show horses) and livestock (including a naval care form for newborn animals). There is also a human label form, Puracyn, which can be found in most drug stores.
My personal experience has been with the hydro gel form, regular spray and ophthalmic form
(has been useful in surface burns). The only type of wound that I have not had success with has been deep pocketed wounds which need to heal in and then it works well topically to finish the healing process. I have not used the ear rinse, but I will try to follow up later when I try it.
A new product I've discovered in researching this product is their Foam Care Medicated Shampoo and I'm looking forward to using it in some of my patients especially for yeast skin infections.
This company continues to seek and develop safe, effective and innovative animal healthcare products and remains the gold standard in hypochlorous technology providing wound care products on the market.

Watch Face/Off
With a bomb hidden in an unknown location, it is up to FBI agent Sean Archer (John Travolta) to beat the clock and save the day. Using futuristic methods, Archer goes deep undercover to get the answers. However, when the nemesis Castor (Nicolas Cage) makes a power play of his own all bets are off. Apart from John Travolta and Nicolas Cage, such actors and actresses as Joan Allen, Alessandro Nivola, Gina Gershon, and Matt Ross can be seen in this picture.
Face/Off combines the crime world, action, and futuristic science.The film is directed by award winner Jon Woo. This being said, one should expect the typical standard as found in his movies (these being explosions, gunfights, and special effects).
Face/Off is rated R due to some of the more intense scenes and language. The film received 8 awards when it was released in 1998.

- John Travolta, Nicolas Cage, Joan Allen, Alessandro Nivola

Themes of this podcast episode, which is a recording from our latest Soulpreneurs event, include:
- Fun and sexy ways to getting "unstuck"

- Reclaiming parts of yourself and embracing being an acquired taste
- Ditching the rulebooks and strategy to spice up social media, and the real reason people like and follow you

Jelena Dokic – she's baaaaaack!January 23, 2009 at 9:03 pm | Posted in All, Australia, Melbourne, Sports/Outdoor Activities, tennis | 1 Comment
Australian Tennis Open at Melbourne Park is currently on its 3rd round. I've just watched (on tv) the match between Denmark's Caroline Wozniacki, the 11th seed and Australia's Jelena Dokic where Dokic won 3-6, 6-1, 6-2.
Yes! Australia's prodigal daughter is back. After a falling out with tennis Australia and leaving the country in 2001, Dokic is back and the whole nation is embracing her. She may have been branded a persona non-grata back then but all is forgiven now. The crowd at Rod Laver Arena in her last two matches were very supportive of her.
Full match report can be read here.
Hopefully she will go on to win more matches and improve her world ranking. Good luck to her.

The Unicorn in not like other mythical creatures who are born of earth, the Unicorn comes from the home of the gods, Olympus. It was there in the heavens that the Greek gods had a contest to see who could create the most beautiful horse, the Muses would then judge, for they are the goddesses of the arts.

A heartfelt Thank You to everyone who stopped by our Book and Bake Sale on Saturday, 9/15/2018!
The book sale does good beyond raising money for the library, and we would like to share the following with you:
There were 2 retired teachers that bought 2 boxes of books and puzzles that will go with them to Zambia to a Bright Stars missionary school, where 100 children (K thru grade 4) will enjoy them.
Another 6 boxes of both adult and children books will make their way to a shelter in Hartford.
We also had someone buy many of our puzzles to bring to senior centers and senior care facilities for their enjoyment.
So, besides all the other patrons who stopped by and bought 1 or many books, these stories are important reminders of how this event helps our community and beyond.

Shipping containers provide many different services, primarily the sea cargo industry that carries materials in bulk all over the world. There is no need for all shipping containers to be new. Used shipping containers can help maintain low costs and expenses when the workload is heavy.
Different Shipping Containers Available
Whether you refer to a container ship or shipping containers, there is a great expense to construct these from the ground up. With the construction of a new shipping container costing as much as $200 million, there is much to benefit from the use of used shipping containers and used container ships. The many different types of containers available include:
- Steel cargo container
- Steel shipping containers
- Storage containers
- 40 foot shipping containers
- Climate controlled containers
- Mobile office containers
- Office containers
- Shipping container houses
While any
Shipping Containers More Useful Than You Think
Cooling stations. Break rooms. Guard houses. Temporary classrooms. Weigh stations. What do all these things have in common? Each and every one of these types of buildings can be created out of storage container modifications. Shipping containers are incredibly useful and modifying them for various uses can help reduce costs and protect the environment.
Mobile office containers, for example, can be used to set up a temporary office, such as at construction sites or other environments that necessitate their use. The use of a modified storage container is much cheaper than building a traditional office, especially when it is only to be used for a short amount of time.

Nominations are now open to nominate a veteran for MISSION Thank You! Thanks to SoFluential media network, I had never heard of this awesome initiative and I'm pumped to share it you all. Harley Davidson- WOW! Seven veterans will receive a Harley Davidson, riding passes, and a lifetime membership to H.O.G (Harvey Owners Group). We have three veterans in our family and there are so many more veterans out there that would LOVE this opportunity. Make sure to learn more about this fantastic opportunity below and follow the social channels to celebrate the veterans that receive the Harley Davidson bikes.
Veteran Shane Kruchten was the first recipient on the MISSION: THANK YOU tour and was honored at a ceremony in San Diego in May.
This summer Adam Sandoval is hitting the road with Harley-Davidson for a cross-country ride to honor those who have served and give away bikes to eight lucky vets.
Adam is an avid H-D rider, and he and his chihuahua Scooter have crossed the country in support of military vets. His ScootinAmerica initiative has raised awareness for several veterans organizations, and he's honored to partner with H-D to bring relief to more riders. He understands that riding can be a relaxing, restorative hobby for vets, especially for those suffering from PTSD.
Anyone can nominate an active military member or veteran to MISSION: THANK YOU by submitting their story of sacrifice, strength and courage to http://missionthankyou.com. Adam will be part of the group reviewing and selecting deserving patriots for the award.

ICFF Youth is the annual film program of ICFF that promotes film as an art form using the platform of international cinema, while providing students (ages 8 to 18) with exposure to a variety of cultures and languages. The program includes feature films and animations. It provides educators with an alternate teaching strategy that respects a variety of learning styles.
The mission of ICFF Youth is two-fold:
1. To use cinema as a tool to enrich students' analytical and critical skills, while also learning about key elements of the art of filmmaking. The power of moving images will provide the students with exposure to a real-life experience within a multimedia and a multicultural context.
2. To give students the opportunity to develop their knowledge of international languages and culture while enjoying the best of contemporary international cinema.
• Cinema is a part of culture, and ICFF wants to bring the art of
international cinema closer to new generations of Canadians who otherwise would have no opportunity to learn about international cinema.
Foreign culture and languages are gradually disappearing from school programs, and international cinema is still invisible.
• Youth represent the future of our Canadian culture; nurturing the new generations means ensuring the growth of French and foreign languages, and the strengthening of international cultures in Canada.
• Our students represent the next potential Oscar-winning directors and actors.
• ICFF Youth needs support in order to expand its program and bring the art of international cinema to the new generations. It will give all Toronto and GTA students the opportunity to develop their knowledge of French, foreign languages, and culture while enjoying the best of contemporary Italian cinema.
• ICFF Youth also intends to nurture and inspire tomorrow's talents by giving them an opportunity to grow and learn.
ICFF Youth 2019 takes place from April 8 to 13, for a total of six days of screenings.
• Eight to ten movies will be presented for the screenings in Vaughan, Richmond Hill, and Toronto. Films will be in their original languages- Italian, French, Mandarin, Cantonese, Spanish and Portuguese with subtitles in English. All films come with educational materials, which will be sent to all participating teachers after their booking.
• All suggested activities will help initiate discussions about the meaning and importance of each film.
• All movies are rated by the Ontario Film Review Board.
NEW to ICFF Youth Festival 2019 !
•Cinema Day will be offered to all schools that wish to participate during one of the festival days. On this day, the students (grades 7-8) will watch a film as well as participate in a series of workshops conducted by film industry experts. These workshops will include discussions related to directing, sound, filming, costume, and make-up. Students will be involved in hands-on experiences which will further expand their knowledge and appreciation for filmmaking.
• ICFF Youth will collaborate and work with various institutions such as Ryerson University, Humber College, Sheridan College, and other institutions, whose experts will be presenting to students on Cinema Day.

This Week in Free Stuff: iZotope, a Sampler & Black Holes
It's quality over quantity this week friends, and as an almost unheard of event has come to pass: iZotope released a free plug-in! We also have the first offering from a budding online music collaboration system called Soundslates MPA, the cloud-connected Moody Sampler plug-in. Finally, the third offering should be worth the wait: an Ableton Live Drum Rack 1.3 billion years in the making!
iZotope Neutrino Spectral-Shaping Plug-in
There aren't many names in audio technology as trusted as iZotope, whose high-tech processors and creative plug-ins pros rely on for mixing, mastering and audio post at the highest levels. So it's kind of a big deal when iZotope debuts a new free plug-in. It's called Neutrino, and it's being dropped in our laps in exchange for an email address to show off some of iZotope's new mixing technology that will incorporate into a bigger product later.
Neutrino performs subtle changes that are the result of a lot of complex math behind the scenes. Specifically, it adds more detail and polish to tracks near the finalization of a mix. With its four modes, Voice concentrates on mid and high frequencies; Bass focuses on bass-relevant, depth-adding frequencies; Instrument works on instrument-relevant low/mid/high frequencies; and Drums emphasizes transient details across all frequencies. Two controls adjust the Amount and Detail of the effect.
You can download Neutrino now for Mac/PC in AAX/AU/RTAS/VST2/VST3 formats.
Moody Sampler for Soundslates MPA (Music Production Assistant)
Online music collaboration has been picking up steam lately, but after more than a decade of being "the next big thing," it's still not the current big thing. It's getting there, but to reach a critical mass of musicians who are regularly making cloud-based collaboration their main method of working, perhaps it will take a new technological system that hits all the right notes. A team at musical social network Soundslates is trying to construct that system, called Soundslates MPA (Music Production Assistant). It's a cloud-based music collaboration system that syncs sessions from most major DAWs between users, automatically backs up your work, provides cloud-connected music software, and offers both free and Pro memberships.
Soundslates MPA has released it newly redesigned Moody Sampler plug-in, the first instrument in the Soundslates MPA system that will eventually include its own DAW and other instruments. Moody Sampler works inside any AU/VST-supporting DAW and can import popular audio file formats to run through its sampler engine and five-slot effects deck. It's also connected to more than 5,000 samples in the Soundslates cloud, along with a searchable browser that you can search by rating, keywords, etc.
Moody Sampler will also work in offline mode. With a free membership to Soundslates, you can download 200 sounds from the Factory Library, use 2GB of cloud storage and collaborate with one person per project. A $99/year Pro Membership will get you unlimited use of the Factory Library, 100GB of cloud storage and up to 20 collaborators per project.
AfroDJMac Black Hole Drums Rack for Ableton Live
Brian Funk, aka AfroDJMac, teaches Advanced Music Production for Ableton Live for Berklee Online, and he recently demonstrated how to make a set of drum samples from a recording derived from the gravitational waves of two black holes colliding, which reached the Earth in February. Watch the video below, and download the Drum Rack from Berklee Online.
Also, did you know that if you have not watched or are not watching Stranger Things on Netflix then you are a bad, bad person?!? I'm not watching it, but that seems to be the conventional wisdom right now. I have, however, enjoyed the '80s-inspired synthesizer soundtrack to Stranger Things, as has Mr. Funk. He was inspired to create his new Polymoog Ableton Live Pack, 30 Instrument Racks-worth of retro synth goodness, including 14 recreations of the original Polymoog presets and 14 variations of those presets. Check out the great Stranger Things-style demos of the Live Pack and see if it's not worth $10 for the download, or you can get it through AfroDJMac's membership Music Production Club.
Got a lead on some #FREESTUFF? Tweet it to @EM_Magazine or to me personally @treefitty.

Trade now lies in producing promotional umbrellas, golfing umbrellas and garden sun shades and furnishings. James Ince and Sons also produces umbrellas, both historic and modern, for film, television and theatre productions. The company was situated at 298-300 Bishopsgate for a number of years and also used business properties in The Oval and Norton Folgate. James Ince and Sons now resides in Hackney.

Grenada Adventure Article
Go with the Flow – a Grenada adventure and activities article
Grenada adventure article written by Travel Writer Linda Jackson, Editor Active Caribbean
Diving with the she-devil is a Grenada adventure you wouldn't expect to be writing about during a visit to an exotic island in the Caribbean. But what the hell, sometimes you have no alternative but to go with the flow – in this case underwater. What a surreal experience it is when the Devil Woman's face, hidden beneath the wide brim of a hat, is a skeleton that can only be observed by literally getting up-front-and-personal.
A Grenada adventure above a surreal underwater sculpture park
Snorkel in Moilinere Bay in Grenada and you will discover the she-devil sitting on the seabed just feet below the water surface and a matter of yards offshore in an underwater sculpture park, a unique creation of sculptor Jason Taylor from England whose ocean floor works of art depict the island's colourful history and folklore. It's an unusual scuba diving and snorkelling site and just one of the ever-growing Grenada adventure options.
Exploring the Underwater Sculpture Park in Grenada, home to 65 sculptures in all, is mesmerising. Either diving or snorkelling it is totally surreal. A line of heads sit on the coral here, a large circle of life-sized people holding hands there. A man sits at a desk typing and, of course, there's that cloven-hoofed she-devil who is despised by women but enchanting to men. According to Grenada folklore that is. This is a surreal Grenada adventure not to miss.
Getting to the site and speeding through the water like a bat out of hell in a powerful twin-engine rib boat (Grenada Seafaris) adds to the thrill as passengers clutch tightly to the handlebars of their jockey seat. Not only is the tour gripping, but also informative: the organisers give a guided tour of each piece of sculpture, talk about Grenada's nautical history, the Leatherback Turtle, the marine park and other ecological aspects of Grenada.
Caribbean volcanoes
A diverse landscape of mountain ranges, dormant volcanoes, deep gorges, and fine white coral beaches are embraced by the 120 square miles of Grenada, an island about the size of the Isle of Wight. Grenada is part of a tri-island state with Carriacou and Petite Martinique, and the most southern of the Windward Islands.
Since hurricane Ivan devastated 85% of the island in September 2004, Grenada has been actively re-inventing itself and is talked about locally as becoming the St Tropez of the Caribbean within the next few years due to the exclusive Port Louis Marina complex, capable of berthing hundreds of yachts and even a number of mega-yachts.
Eco-tourism in the Caribbean
Blessed with an eco-friendly government that is strictly monitoring hotel developments and with one-fifth of the island being protected wildlife reserves, parks and natural sanctuaries, it looks as if Grenada's reputation for being one of the most unspoilt of the Caribbean islands will stand long into the future. Rising steeply from the coast, the land reaches a height of almost 3,000ft and encompasses a profusion of flora, waterfalls and an extensive tropical rainforest – the Grand Etang Forest Reserve high up in the mountains of Grenada's interior, a popular Grenada adventure hiking area.
Grenada adventure trekking
Away from the coast, ascending the winding mountain roads, the air temperature drops some 10°-15° but body temperatures soon rise when trekking through Grenada's lush humid rainforest with a local walking guide. Tours range from easy fifteen-minute jaunts to rigorous expeditions of several hours. For a short hike, and not too strenuous Grenada adventure, opt to go to the Seven Sisters Waterfalls. How welcome it is to swim in the deep cold water at the base of the waterfalls before the return trek through dense steamy undergrowth in which a few of the island's 350 bird species might be glimpsed: maybe even armadillo, opossum, or shy Mona monkeys.
River tubing – a Grenada adventure ranging from meek & mild to wet & wild
Tropical vegetation, water and wildlife is present during another activity – river tubing, now a popular Grenada adventure. Enjoy the tropical setting sitting in an enormous rubber ring. After a safety briefing, life vest and helmet handout, guides accompany river-tubers to keep them on the not-so-straight but very narrow watercourse, the currents spinning and swirling the rubber rings as the river meanders through the serene Balthazar Estate.
How fast river-tubers complete the watercourse and how exciting it is depends on the time of year and how much water is coming off the mountains – expect the tubing to be anything from meek and mild to wet and pretty wild. Disembarkation is at the last sheltered pool on the river where a short walk through a shaded Heliconia plantation – an exquisite hue of green, dotted with vibrant red blooms and dappled gold sunlight – leads to the return base where that celebrated Caribbean rum punch with a kick worthy of a donkey awaits adventurers.
Scuba diving sites in the Grenada – spectacular walls & wrecks
Both Grenada and Carriacou are known for their great diving sites with spectacular walls and wrecks (including the 'Titanic of the Caribbean', the Bianca C) where sharks, turtles, lobsters and giant moray eels can be seen gliding past a backdrop of soft coral forest, striking reefs and sponges; and also Grenada for being an idyllic starting point from which to charter a boat, with or without skipper, down the Grenadines – an archipelago well worth sailing into one of the Caribbean's beautiful sunsets to explore.

Hearing loss, or a reduced ability to perceive sound, affects millions of people of all ages. NYU Langone otolaryngologists, also called ear, nose, and throat (ENT) physicians, collaborate with audiologists who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of hearing disorders. Our physicians and audiologists conduct sophisticated hearing tests to determine the type of hearing loss you're experiencing and the cause of your symptoms.
Based on the results of hearing tests, your doctor explains the available treatment options and partners with you to make a decision about which treatments are most likely to enhance your life. Our experts understand that hearing loss affects people in many different ways and that the decision to pursue treatment is a personal one.
Depending on the cause, hearing loss can sometimes be treated with medication or with assistive devices such as hearing aids. If hearing loss is caused by an anatomical condition, our doctors may recommend surgery to help restore your hearing. Surgeons at NYU Langone's Cochlear Implant Center are among the most experienced in the country and perform an average of 180 of these surgeries each year.
NYU Langone specialists provide care and support throughout your entire healthcare journey.Browse Doctors

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is today.
~Chinese Proverb
I've always liked this proverb and find it applies to many common dilemmas. The best time to see a doctor about a worrisome symptom was probably the day after you noticed the symptom. The next best time is today. The best time to start a large project at work or a term paper at school was shortly after the task was assigned. The next best time is today. And for our subject today, the best time to start building your email list was the day you opened your business, but the second best time is today!
Today we look back into our email archives to the very beginning of our Email Marketing Story, and give you a place to START.
We've also included a link to our FREE Email Marketing Ebook to give you that push and help you get started.
As the quote above suggests, TODAY is the second best day to get going with consistent email marketing!
Email Marketing is the BEST marketing tool for building your "Tribe"
As you may or may not know, our retail store {Adrians Boutique} is located in the teeny tiny town of Buhler, Kansas. Population: 1200 people, yet we daily draw from a radius of about 2 hours in any direction. Almost every client that comes in the door has driven a minimum of 12-20 miles to get there. This doesn't happen by accident, and as you are well aware, it takes a constant stream and variety of marketing to be successful. I believe that when used consistently, Email Marketing is the BEST marketing tool we have in our small businesses tool box!
Start consistently collecting Email Addresses
We started collecting email addresses from our clients in August of 2007, but it wasn't until almost a year later that we learned about Constant Contact and figured out how to send an email to a group! We started with 1,154 names on our list, by making it non-negotiable for our staff members to ASK for contact information during every transaction at our register. Adrians Boutique now has over 11,000 clients on our email list, with an average open rate of 18-20% on our weekly emails.
Our first email debuted for the 4th of July weekend in 2008…Now 6 1/2 years later, we have sent out 467 emails which is an average of 1.38 emails per week. We have learned so much along the way and the most important thing has not been the flawless artwork, copy with no misspelled words, or profound advice that is included in each email…
the most important thing is that we SHOW UP in our customer's inbox every week.
Week after week, year after year, with real and relevant information that has our customer's best interest at heart. We write with our customer's "WIIFM" (What's In It For Me?) in mind, every single time! (Click HERE to view our first email from 2008.)
The Money is in the List
Michael Hyatt, who now has over 115,000 people on his email list and 500,000 subscribers to his blog, says about building his email list, "…Now, three years later, my email list of 2,771 contacts has mushroomed to almost 115,000. And I am adding a thousand people or so a week. Even today, my email list is still my number one business priority—and asset. I have literally built a multi-million dollar business on the strength of my email list. Ninety percent of my income comes from it."
Grow Your List
Now you may not have a thousand people a week joining your email list like Michael Hyatt does, but by consistently asking for your customers contact information (including email addresses), you can consistently build your list one client at a time! Start with where you are at right now, and make a goal to grow your list on a daily basis. Track this by watching and charting your number of email addresses you have on file, then track your email OPEN rates.
The time to start is NOW. Don't know where to start or what to write about? Maybe you're not the most Tech Savvy Shopkeeper in the world, but you do know your clients and what interests them. You can start out with just 3 features per email:
- Highlight one product line or category (what just arrived from Market?)
- One store event (what's going on in your store this weekend?)
- One WIIFM item (our customers love recipes, so we usually feature one or more recipes in an email.)
Add an incentive for your customers to OPEN that email, get into their car and come to visit you at your business. You can use coupons, gift with purchase, special offers, or even offer something FREE (we call those "Reader Rewards").
Remarkable Retailer Email Marketing E-Book
Today we are offering our readers a link to the Remarkable Retailer Email Marketing E-Book at absolutely no cost. This is a 24 page booklet with ideas to help you get started on consistently reaching out to your clients through email marketing. If you just don't know how to get started, there are some great tips and proven tactics to get you going.
E.M.A.I.L. Marketing =
License to Sell!
Learn how to write and schedule your posts, plus practical tips on how to Get 'er Done!

I would love to hear how you are doing with your commitment to growing your email list! Please feel free to email me at:
