In a rare meeting backstage at Cincinnati's Music Hall, music legend, Prince asked singer/songwriter, Mark Lorenzo, "Do you believe the cream will rise to the top?..." After responding that he did, Prince continued,
"...Then you have nothing to worry about."
In 2018 Mark Lorenzo and Southbound75 signed with Godog Management with a plan to release new music later this year. Godog was founded by Warner Brothers Records Alumni and Liz Rosenberg Media members to create an all encompassing music company that supports it's artists with radio promotion and publicity. "Not Ready to Say I'm Sorry Yet" is the first release from the joint venture.
Mark grew up listening to great songwriters. With Prince, Billy Joel, Little Texas and Garth Brooks as early inspirations, he quickly learned how to write hit songs. As an only child, he was forced to play all the instruments himself writing and recording over 200 songs before finishing High School.
When asked to contribute a song for the local Homeless Awareness Project in his hometown of Toledo, OH, he wrote the song, "Where's Santa Now?" That song instantly got airplay so he volunteered to promote the charity in a multi-city holiday acoustic tour.
The story took a big jump when Radio Promotion legend, Bill Scull heard his song, "Little Breakdown" at an ASCAP demo review session. Scull, who has worked in the industry for years with Clive Davis, singled him out, signed Mark to his EO label, and sent him out to record his label's first CD.
Scull said, "The thing I learned from Clive is that the song is king…and Lorenzo has those songs."
His talent also caught the attention of publisher Jan Seedman (who discovered Nickelback for Road Runner Records), "Mark knows how to come up with a melody... the songs just don't get tired - ever."
That Music Magazine stated..."With smash songs including "Not Ready To Say I'm Sorry Yet," this group is clearly headed to the big time."
The new CD is really a greatest hits collection of Mark's favorite songs plus an unreleased Little Texas track. As he was recording the CD, a friend slipped some of the unfinished demos to Del Gray of Little Texas. Del loved the songs and sent over a song that is now on the Southbound75 CD.
Today, with Southbound75's new CD about to be released, Mark and the guys are looking forward to getting back to what they do best – playing live and meeting people. The band is constantly touring the midwest, east coast and their current home state of Florida. All of the musicians in Southbound75 are seasoned professionals who put on a high-energy live show.
Mark's songs have been used on TV shows, sports programming, DVDs, Cartoons and more such as; "ESPN College Football;" "Shark" (CBS); "90210" (CW); "Threshold" (CBS); "Girlfriends" (CW) and "3lbs" on (CBS).
The band is endorsed by Red Monkey Hats and Accessories, Bosphorus Cymbals & American Crew – "Official Supplier to Men"

March 7, 2014
We at Quail Run are very excited to announce a new additon to our team! Beginning March 11, 2014 QR will have a new trainer and instructor to help provide our services to our clients. Professional Angie Connor will join us and will handle many of the beginner and novice lessons, as well as helping Dan and Dannee with customer training rides and lessons in general.
Angie worked for Quail Run several years ago and we are THRILLED to have her back again. She will make an excellent addition to our staff! We are particulary excited about the fact that Angie will often times stay home when the other trainers head off to competitions so that training rides and lessons can continue at Quail Run in their absence.
Here is Angie's Biography:
Angie Connor
Angie "Irwin" Connor took her first riding lesson at Quail Run in 1990. During her time as a student at Quail Run she showed a great interest and determination and was given the opportunity to be a working student at QR throughout her Junior High and High School years.
As a Junior rider, she had many successes in the Junior Hunters, the Equitation Medals, the Junior/AO Jumpers, and even a few smaller Grand Prixs. All these accomplishments took place on her thoroughbred "All That Jazz", a horse she bought as a 4 year old and brought along herself. With "Jazz", she had the privelege of representing Zone 6 in 1998 and 1999 at the National Junior Jumper Finals and Prix des States in Harrisburg, PA.
At the age of 18, Angie turned professional, and began riding and teaching for Quail Run. Part of her duties at that time were to teach a horseback riding PE class through Creighton University. While teaching one of those classes, Angie met her now husband Sean Connor. The pair have been married since 2005, and they recently welcomed their first child in June of 2013.
After living away from Omaha since 2006, Angie is very excited to be coming home to continue pursuing her passion of riding and teaching riders of all ages and levels.
Welcome to the team Angie!!!
If you are interested in setting up a lesson with Angie, please do not hesitate to contact her:

Why it's time to revisit hospital supply chain contracts to start saving money
Taking a disciplined approach to re-negotiating contracts with your top vendors enables hospitals to leverage power they might not know they have.
Hospital finance and operations executives can reap big cost savings in existing supply chain purchase service contracts relatively easily and quickly by taking a few basic steps.
Although they are widespread, purchase service contracts often don't get a lot of attention, since they're one of the last things to come to mind when thinking of supply chain spend. After all, something like an elevator maintenance contract or outsourced nutrition services isn't as visible as, say, a knee implant, or a pricey piece of laparoscopic equipment. Even those who actually work in supply chain may not readily focus on such things.
But Tony Bramer, vice president of Quorum Purchasing Advantage, said it should be one of the first areas of focus for hospitals that are in crisis mode and need to achieve immediate savings.
HIMSS20 Digital
Learn on-demand, earn credit, find products and solutions. Get Started >>
One of Bramer's recommendations is for hospitals to review their top 10 purchase service contracts and sit down with those vendors and challenge them to come up with changes that can save 10 percent on the contracts. The reason this often works is due to leverage. A hospital can always take the contract out for a request for proposal, and most vendors would rather avoid getting into an RFP situation if they have a longstanding contract. They'll dole out some immediate savings without impacting levels of service.
Whether it's purchase service contracts or medical supplies, data is the straw that stirs the drink.
"The key thing a hospital has to do is understand their data, and make sure their systems will help them understand their spending and understand their utilization," said Bramer. "It has to tie well into the accounting department to determine where the opportunities are and what the spend is."
A lot of those opportunities revolve around physician preference items -- those items that clinicians earmark as being especially effective or comfortable to use. Many develop a preference for certain clinical tools when other tools may be less expensive but equally as effective in a medical setting.
"You've got to take an outcomes-driven approach with the physician," said Bramer. "They drive their selection of a product generally because they get used to certain things in medical school. Maybe it's a piece of laparoscopic equipment, or a hip implant. You've got to build trust with that physician and ask them, 'How does this achieve the outcome you're trying to accomplish?'"
With physicians on board, supply chain can then examine the vendors it's using and pinpoint the ones likely to help reduce costs. But it's important to have physician input in the process.
"Find physician champions in each of these areas," said Bramer. "Some physicians will have an interest in the costs. Find a couple of those who will be willing to work with you and you'll have some credibility with the other physicians. And develop a rapport with the clinical staff. They have a lot of say and power with the doctors to get them to buy certain things."
A final tip about what not to do: Leave it to staff that are unfamiliar with contracting practices and processes.
"For many hospitals, it's left to the department manager to negotiate their own contracts. We find hospitals that are doing that miss out on a lot of discipline," Bramer said. "My recommendation is that you should have someone in supply chain -- with knowledge of what's on a contract -- who should be heading up the process to see any purchase service contract negotiations or reviews."

What better way to start 2019 than with an incredible Gong Bath at one of Londons most luxurious locations? For the first full moon of the year, we welcome back Steph Reynolds (of Liver Happy Life) to the unique theatre of The Mandrake.
Tantalise the senses as you are immersed in scent and sound. The session begins with activating your breath and voice with Pranayama and Mantra. Once tuned in and engaged to your own vibrations lie back and go on a cosmic journey, as healing frequency instruments and essential oils are woven through the crowd. Allow the vibrations to relax the body and soothe the mind as we journey inward to clear blockages making space for whatever is needed in that moment.
The sound journey will include 3 planetary gongs - Sun, Earth & Venus, crystal bowls, medicine drum, chimes, native american flute and other percussive instruments. During the sound journey instruments will move around the room and a number of aromatic scents will be dispersed.
The aim is to expand consciousness to a higher level (Altered State of Consciousness), to facilitate release, energetic shifts and inhibition of certain chemicals in the body such as stress hormone and Cortisol, such promoting healing, regeneration, and reconnection with the pure self.

#139: Gordon MacLelland | Working with parents in sport
Listen on iTunes
Listen on Spotify
Welcome to episode number 139 with Gordon MacLelland. A generation ago children went out to play sport for the fun of the game and if they became successful and were able to make a living from it then that was great. It was not the primary motivation for parents setting out their children on their sporting careers.
Many parents from the moment they see their child in sports kit and they begin to look like mini-adults, have a much greater expectation, which can often outweigh their patience in helping their child develop at the appropriate speed.
As obesity rates continue to rise globally, many young people are giving up sport in their teenage years due to some of the pressures, behaviours put on them by parents during their formative years and they simply fall out of love with sport. It is no longer fun and that is the primary reason that children want to play sport in the first place.
We all have a responsibility to address this. Sport and physical activity should be seen as a lifetime investment for our children, not a short term gain.
We need to go back to basics and see sport for what it is, a chance for our children to learn experiences for life.
Teamwork, dealing with adversity, friendships, sportsmanship are all valuable traits in life and not just in sport.
Gordon MacLelland set up 'Working with Parents in Sport' after 20 years as a teacher and as a coach to all age levels from 7-year-olds to Adults.
He has a BA/Hons degree in Sports Science from University College Chester and a PGCE from Lancaster University.
He is a qualified teacher and has been Director of Sport at an independent prep school in the UK for the last 10 years. He has worked in schools in both the UK and New Zealand for the last 16 years.
He is the author of two books, 'Great Sports Parenting' – A pocket guide for parents of children in sport and 'Engage' – A coaches guide to building positive relationships with parents.
In recent times he has become a parent to two children and the early sporting experiences of his own children prompted him to set up the company as well as write the two books above.
I have extracted this BIO and breakdown of today's podcast from Gordon's website – https://www.parentsinsport.co.uk/


text: A rather lovely demo of Peter Pig's English Civil War laid on for us, and sadly it was great. Sadly as I have some 28mm stuff half painted and really the last thing I need is temptation to deviate back to my beloved 15mm. Anyway… Dan's Royalists showed a serious lack of get up and go whilst the Parliamentarians mounted an aggressively mobile defence. The more experienced cavaliers finally made their experience tell on the left flank as their cavalry gained the upper hand but promptly ran off to loot the baggage. In the centre dull but reliable musketry kept the royalist attack in check and even in risk of envelopment on parliament's far left. Great game, great miniatutes and a pleasing period flavour to the whole thing. Damn you temptation.

Martin Luther (1483?1546) was a German monk whose teachings inspired the Reformation and deeply influenced the doctrines and culture of the Lutheran and Protestant traditions. Luther emphasized salvation based on faith in the merits of Jesus Christ alone and not on human efforts to earn God's favor. At the heart of the gospel, in Luther's estimation, was the doctrine of justification by faith?the teaching that Christ's own righteousness is imputed to those who believe, and on that ground alone, they are accepted by God. Martin Luther dealt the symbolic blow that began the Reformation when he nailed his ninety-five theses to the door of the Wittenberg church. That document contained an attack on papal abuses and the sale of indulgences by Catholic Church officials. In this volume the reader will find fifty of Martin Luther's most significant sermons, selected and organized with the lay reader in mind. His sermons reflect the heart of his thoughts on the Christian faith and his ideas for practical life in that faith. The reader will gain a deeper understanding of Luther's thinking on topics important to today's Christian as well as insight into Luther's contribution to Christian practice and thought.[Publisher]

Derrick of An Obsession With Food wrote earlier this week that his blog was popular with the teen-n-tween crowd, according to Microsoft's demographic analysis tool. "I'm skeptical that the next generation has so much passion for wine, homemade charcuterie, and fine dining," he writes, doubting the accuracy of the tool (which predicts viewers' demographics based on their search queries and Web page views).
While I'm inclined to agree that Derrick knows his readers better than an automated program could, it does seem like a lot of really young people are into food these days. Every time I blink there's a new cookbook for kids on my desk, and grub-o-philic TV shows and books catering to college students (many of whom blog about food) seem to keep popping up. And just today, Slashfood reported that family-style restaurant chain Applebee's has hired Food Network heartthrob Tyler Florence to develop some new menu items in a bid to increase the chain's appeal among young folk.
Maybe Derrick is right that youthful 'hounds are into different types of chow than their more seasoned counterparts (i.e. maybe the youngsters place less emphasis on traditional "fine dining"). But then there's apparently a growing number of sommeliers who started developing their oenophilia when they were well underage. Is there really a lurking under-18 crowd in OWF's readership?
What about here—any teenage CHOW fans out there?

Top-5 gadgets that interact with iPhone
The iPhone itself is a powerful device that is capable of much. Another wonderful side of its use is a collaboration with another device. You can make the iPhone become part of something bigger or use it as a control panel for the whole system. We have collected five best examples of how the iPhone works with other gadgets, presenting something completely new to our eye.
Anki Drive racing car
Anky and very stylish racing car Anki Drive comes with a powerful kit. For $ 149 you get two cars and a starting race track. You can control the race directly from the iPhone – the screen will display your design from the machine, like a computer game. Open additional functionality is simple: the downloaded application helps to launch new processes in the car, improving the productivity and speed of the car, teaching it new commands and tricks.
Dron Parrot
Dron Parrot is equipped with a camera for photo and video shooting in HD-quality, but at the same time maintains ultra-lightweight – 31 grams. The device is controlled by the iPhone – tapes on the screen and a simple gesture system make it a very convenient device. High level of stabilization, the ability to automatically return "home", view the image from the camera directly to the iPhone while managing – all in one small Parrot. The cost of a drone is $ 265.
Robo Robo
Romochka robot with a pretty face – this is a case specially designed for working with the iPhone. Together with this device, the robot becomes a real home helper and friend. He moves on small caterpillars, so he can follow you or play moving games. In addition, Romo can be taught everything you need.
And when the owner is bored with programming the robot in predefined boundaries, it can go into free-play mode and adjust other subtleties and skills of Romo. Developers call their offspring a "creative platform" because based on Romo you can create a full-fledged character. The cost of the robot is $ 129.
Lock August
Access to the house without keys or code, but authorized by the owner? This was achieved by creating August Smart Lock – a device that is configured and controlled using the iPhone. You need to configure the lock, indicating who can enter the house by default, by inserting into its memory a list of smartphones and devices capable of crossing the threshold. A special application allows you to monitor all such locks in the house. And if you equip every August door, you can be sure that without your knowledge it will not be entered. The application also keeps a record of all who have ever visited the house. The cost of the castle is $ 249.
Microscope MicrobeScope
A powerful microscope of a pocket size allows not only to examine microbes but also to shoot it all on video or to take a photo. You can watch bacteria and other life forms that are even smaller than a micron. The creators suggest that such a microscope is useful for schoolchildren and students, and simply – it's very interesting. No additional materials like glass or clamping are required. Buy MicrobeScope can be pre-order, the cost needs to be clarified.

Reed students Sasha Peters and Rennie Meyers won Watson Fellowships to pursue a year of independent study after graduation. Photos by Chris Lydgate
We're thrilled to announce that two Reed seniors have won Thomas J. Watson Fellowships for purposeful, independent study outside the United States.
Environmental studies-history major Rennie Meyers '15 won a fellowship to study the formation of artificial coral reefs and history/literature major Sasha Peters '15 won a fellowship to explore abandoned sites and cities in the Soviet sphere through the medium of radio.
Coral Reefs
Rennie's project is titled Deep Water, Horizons: Artificial Reef Communities, Above and Below the Water Line and she will pursue it in the Canary Islands, Fiji, Brunei, and Japan.
"From oil rigs to submerged eco-art to coral farms, coral growth occurs at the hands of humans with or without their intent," her proposal states. "By exploring interactions between human and non-human communities above and below artificial coral habitats in four island nations, I will engage artificial or anthropogenic reef habitats and the humans who have (sometimes accidentally) created and lived with them. I hope to better understand the ways in which humans continue to alter the marine landscape, to photo document those landscapes, and to consult with the human communities responsible for these new habitats in the face of global climate change."
Rennie is writing her senior thesis on the development of marine ecology in Monterey Bay from the 1880s to the 1970s with Prof. Josh Howe [history 2012-]. "I am completely off the walls about this fellowship," she says. "There is a deep sense of promise and adventure for my time after Reed, even with the road bumps that I know lie ahead. I am honored and ecstatic and bewildered that I get to share this experience with Sasha, who has grown so much with me at Reed. Reed's influence is so present in my project—studying environmental history taught me to find the human narrative and agency in stories of global climate change. Even being on a campus this size points out all the places where I have an opportunity to effect change for the better. I am so deeply indebted to Josh Howe for his persistent mentorship, the efforts of all the faculty and staff that helped me through this project and process, and family support along the way."
Radio in Ruins
Sasha's project is titled Radio in the Ruins and will take her to Latvia, Czech Republic, Poland, Norway, Bulgaria, and Germany.
"The Soviet Union and its influence produced an impressive array of buildings, monuments, and sites that embodied communist ideology," her proposal states. "After the Soviet Union's fall, many of these places became inessential or unsupportable and were abandoned. Some of those places, decaying as they are, remain today. For my Watson year, I will travel to ruins in the Soviet sphere and make radio pieces about each of them. I aim to encapsulate the rich histories and eerie beauty of these ruins with sound."
Sasha is writing her senior thesis on the connection between Soviet environmental history and Russian nationalism and how it was reflected in literature with advisers Prof. Marat Grinberg [Russian 2006-] and Prof. Josh Howe [him again?!]. Her first reaction to the news, she says, was "temporary blindness, followed by cold sweat, and then excitement. I want to thank Josh Howe, Prof. Zhenya Bershtein [Russian 1999-], the Watson Committee, and my mentors at Rendered, the podcast I work for. I'm so grateful to Rennie, one of my closest friends at Reed, for worrying and talking and sharing with me, and to Meagan Harris '15, my constant editor and motivator."
The Watson Year provides fellows with an opportunity to test their aspirations, abilities, and perseverance through personal projects that are cultivated on an international scale. Watson Fellows have gone on to become CEOs of major corporations, college presidents, diplomats, artists, lawyers, doctors, journalists, and renowned researchers and innovators. The program offers a stipend of $30,000 to 50 fellows to pursue an independent study of something they are passionate about in a country that is not their own.
Since the program began in 1968, Reed students have won a total of 67 Watson Fellowships, including Cole Perkinson '13, who won a Watson to go to Africa and research Zimbabwean music.

Books, Reading and Writing (Braw) has been set up to showcase Scottish children's authors and illustrators.
The project, run by the Scottish Book Trust, will support festivals, book tours and career development using Scottish Arts Council lottery funds.
It is hoped youngsters will follow the example of an Inverness teenager whose book has sold more than 50,000 copies.
Braw said the wide-ranging scheme was aimed at parents, carers, authors, illustrators, teachers, librarians, publishers, booksellers, literary organisations and, most essentially, readers.
Patron Joan Lingard, of the Scottish Book Trust, is a successful children's author herself and has long campaigned for vehicle to promote home-grown literature to children.
She said: "It's fantastic to see an idea become a reality with the launch of Braw.
"Scotland has a wealth of children's literature and through this initiative we will be able to introduce children to these books in a variety of imaginative and exciting ways."
The project will include efforts to:
Braw said it hoped the programme would provide a gateway to "knowledge, experience and empowerment".
Marc Lambert, chief executive of the Scottish Book Trust, said: "We are extremely excited about the launch of Braw which will reach children throughout the whole of Scotland.
"We hope that if we can engage children at a young age, they will develop a love of reading now and in the future and we may even inspire some to become part of the next generation of Scottish writers."
Many budding young authors are hoping to follow in the footsteps of 13-year-old Emma Maree Urquhart, from Inverness.
Her first novel Dragon Tamers, published by Aultbea Publishing in Inverness, sold 50,000 copies in six weeks.
Robert King, a fourth year pupil at Tain Royal Academy in the Highlands, has followed Emma into print.
His novel Apple of Doom, the first part of a children's fantasy trilogy, is also being published by Aultbea.

Do you suffer the state of your world, your faith, your soul? Enter Lent as atonement unfolds at the foot of the Cross, upon the field of spiritual battle.
Time plays some very strange notes upon the strings of our minds in prison. After Ryan MacDonald's guest post announcing the filing of a hopeful new federal appeal a few weeks ago, I was read a message from a dear old friend, a social worker who once was my coworker in a ministry to troubled priests. She sacrificed to send a gift to my defense fund, and wrote that she just had her 85th birthday. I was stunned by this! How could it be? In my mind, she is a vibrant and quite feisty 65. "Do the Math!" I told myself as I remembered something that felt a bit like being tasered. She was 65 when I last saw her before I was sent to prison, and I have been in prison for 20 years.
One cruel truth about a long prison sentence is that time stands still. By that, I don't mean that it stretches out in incessant boredom. If I keep busy – and I do – time marches on at a pretty steady clip here. By "time stands still," I- mean that in the psyche of a prisoner, time is measured on the "BP/IP" scale – "Before Prison" and "In Prison." In my mind, everything and everyone in my life – including me – should now be just as it was when I last saw freedom.
That is the operative word: "Freedom!" The passage of time seems to have ended when freedom ended. Forgetting that time marches on can sometimes be perilous. In a recent post, "Return to Downton Abbey: A Feast for Ordinary Time," I mentioned two of my friends, Mike Ciresi and Michael Martinez, both of whom will play an important part in this post. Two months ago, young Michael Martinez was moved to another unit in the prison. He mourns the fact that he can now see me and Pornchai –Maximilian only a few times a month when a Mass is offered in the prison chapel. He told me he often feels alone and stranded now, so one day recently I agreed to meet him for a Sunday evening prayer service.
When it was over at 9:00 PM, we were descending the six flights of metal stairs to the prison's main yard. The stairs are built onto the outside of the building, much like the fire escape of an old urban tenement. We had just had an ice storm. Descending the icy metal stairs in the dark, while wearing my new bifocals, my feet were suddenly higher than my head which landed with a loud "CLANG" on a metal grate eight stairs below.
In a split second, Michael reached out to stop my fall, but – aware that he just had reconstructive surgery on his shoulder and collar bone – I pushed him away, which just increased my momentum. Michael was fine, but I ended up with a badly twisted shoulder and a really cool Harry Potter-like lightning bolt scar on my forehead above my right eye.
I wish it hadn't healed so quickly. I thought it gave me character! The loud "CLANG" of my head hitting the icy metal landing echoed through the otherwise dark and silent prison yard. Michael was surprised when I bounced up to continue down the stairs the conventional way. "You're pretty tough for sixty," he said.
"Sixty? Who's SIXTY?!" I thought. "I'm only 40!" The fall was nothing next to that sudden dose of reality. I have been a prisoner for 20 years while time stood still nowhere but in my own mind. So that is my resume – or epitaph, perhaps. Having spent 20 years doing battle with time and the tides of injustice, I am now qualified to write of the state of our world, our faith, our souls as atonement unfolds at midnight in the garden of good and evil.
And if you should wonder whether that battle really is being waged, I am tasked, as Lent begins behind these stone walls, with writing a story that has so many twists and turns it seems incomprehensible. Bear with me as the stories of four prisoners are told. It culminates, by design and purpose, in a convergence so improbable it leaves little doubt about the grace of Divine Mercy.
It begins with me, but I am not its center – not by any means. You already know most of what there is to know about me so this will be the shortest part of this story. You know that I am a priest, and from Ryan MacDonald's recent essays, "The Trial of Father MacRae" and "The Prison of Father MacRae," you know that I was set upon by robbers, cast into prison, and left there to do battle with time.
The field of battle in which I am engaged begins with false witness, a violation of the Eighth Commandment and a sin against God and His Covenant. I don't want to be where I am. Even when, as a man, I feel impoverished and beaten by these circumstances, priesthood demands engaging in a battle for justice and truth. There seems a lot at stake that is far more important than me "doing time."
Then, about 12 years into my long Lent with no Easter in sight, along came Pornchai Moontri. I call him Pornchai here because it was long before he added the name, Maximilian. At the time we met, Pornchai had also spent 14 long years in prison, mostly in the psychological brutality of solitary confinement. For year upon year, Pornchai was locked in a cage and treated like an animal. On the eve of destruction of both his humanity and the soul he never even knew he had, Pornchai was shackled and shipped off to another prison – this one – where our paths converged.
Pornchai wound his way through the maze of prison housing units. Any of the dozens of decisions along the way – all made by someone else for reasons having little or nothing to do with the good of Pornchai – could have meant we would never meet. When we finally did meet, you can just imagine the obstacles to trust. I am a Catholic priest accused and convicted of the same acts of sexual abuse that, as Pornchai put it, "were visited upon me in the real world by the man who took me from Thailand" when Pornchai was 11 years old. He described his hostility to me in an interview with Felix Carroll whose great Divine Mercy book, Loved, Lost, Found told the story of Pornchai's conversion:
"I was hostile to [Fr Gordon] for a long time. I had mastered the art of driving anyone who cared away from me, but in Gordon I had met my match."
Over time, trust grew between us, and Pornchai risked that trust. It was a very great risk, potentially a perilous one. I'm tempted to write of how my innate charm won the day, but this is not a novel and that would not be the truth. In time, Pornchai came to write this story himself. He had no idea of the power of "Pornchai's Story" as it was published by The Catholic League in 2008 and then circled the globe.
Pornchai became a Catholic on Divine Mercy Sunday in 2010, and took a new name, "Maximilian," in tribute to Saint Maximilian Kolbe who also shares our cell. As Pornchai describes this today:
"On the day after Divine Mercy Sunday, 2010, I woke up to a future when up to then I had only a past."
Mike Ciresi was a North Providence police officer for 20 years before his life fell out from under him. A patrol Sergeant on the midnight shift, Mike saw human nature at its very worst – including his own – but was blinded to the downward spiral he was in. Facing marital problems, financial strains, personal demons, and a growing estrangement from his dearest connection in this life – his twin sons, now age 11 – Mike Ciresi abandoned his values, and descended down a path of selfish ruin. He set up and robbed a notorious drug dealer, and ended up in prison.
The prospects in a Rhode Island prison for a former police sergeant are not pleasant. The system could not keep him there so he was transferred out of state. Again, any of the many decisions made along the way – by prison bureaucrats who never laid eyes on Mike Ciresi – could easily have meant that we would never meet. And again, Mike wound his way through all the possible permutations of housing units in this prison before arriving one day in the same place Pornchai and I are in.
Mike, age 46, was guarded and harbored his secrets carefully. Trust did not come easy to him, and perhaps that is why he gravitated to Pornchai. They became friends while I continued to wonder about Mike's guarded nature. I also sensed that his pleasant persona masked a cold hostility to me that was personal, if not misplaced.
Mike was intrigued by Pornchai's conversion, and seemed to find in it some vague hope for himself. Then one day, Pornchai shared with Mike a copy of "Pornchai's Story." From it, Mike realized that he and Pornchai shared something far more devastating than prison itself. Mike and Pornchai had some long talks, and then both of them talked with me. Leaning on the strength of Pornchai's conversion and the hope of a future free of the devastation of the past, Mike told me his secret. At the age of nine, he was robbed of his childhood, and lost his faith, when he was sexually abused by his parish priest. Once again, it felt as though I wore the entire millstone of scandal in the Catholic Church. The enormity of Mike's pain made the crown of priesthood feel like a crown of thorns.
The three of us have spent many long nights extracting the poison from these wounds, and rebuilding the life of faith that was stolen from Mike, a very good man who is intent on passing to his sons the Catholic faith he has found anew, the faith that is now getting him through. For the first time as an adult, Mike has returned to Mass and the Sacraments, is reconciling with his Church, and with himself. Pornchai and I attend Mass with Mike when offered in the prison chapel, and then also offer Mass late at night in our cell. Mike is a trusted friend.
This other Michael just turned 22 years old and is in his third year in prison. I wrote about Michael Martinez in "Christmas in the Midst of All That Really Matters." Michael's father has been in prison in some other state, and his family life just disintegrated. He grew up on the urban streets of Providence, Rhode Island, but wound his way to New Hampshire as a young adult and then ended up in prison. For reasons I never understood, Michael – a sullen, scraggly, almost totally silent young man – reached out to me and then was eventually moved to where Pornchai and I live.
One day, Michael came to my door. He was agitated, and said he needed to talk with me. From my cell doorway, he pointed across the cell block to Mike Ciresi and said, "That guy was a cop and he arrested me once." Small world, I thought. Not wanting to leave Michael's smoldering embers of resentment uncooled, I then and there brought Mike C. to my cell and asked Michael M. to repeat what he just told me. The whole story came out in the open, and the two of them ended up rolling in laughter at each other's plight.
Then Michael Martinez said he wants to go to Mass with us. Michael M. was Baptized Catholic but never had any other exposure to his faith. Two months ago, he was moved suddenly to another part of the prison, and this has been a struggle for him. Joining us at Mass once per week is now, he says, the central part of his week.
On February 23, Mike Ciresi and Michael Martinez, along with 12 other prisoners, began this prison's second "33 Days to Morning Glory" retreat. They were inspired by the wonderful experience Pornchai and I were privileged to have, an experience Felix Carroll wrote about in the Spring 2014 issue of Marian Helper magazine. His article, "Mary is at Work Here" has a great photo of Pornchai and me at the time of our Marian Consecration on the Feast of Christ the King, my 7,000th day in prison. [Flash Version and PDF Version]
For our Lenten journey this year, Pornchai-Maximilian and I are reviewing the readings for each of the "33 Days" so we can walk this journey with our dear friends, Mike Ciresi and Michael Martinez. I would be grateful if you would spread word of this post, and a link to Felix Carroll's Marian Helper article above. I would also be grateful if you would pray for our friends.
We are characters in this book about us, but we are not the book's author. In prison, our time is spent at the foot of the Cross, upon the field of spiritual battle, and for these four friends who converged upon this place at this point in time – as vastly unlikely as that was – our personal demons have lost. Prison itself has lost. The Cross of Christ has reigned victorious.
And all because His Mother wanted a word with us!
Pope Saint Clement (70-96 AD) on the mythical Phoenix Rising : The First Epistle of Clement to the Corinthians (Source: EWTN)
Chap. XXV. The phoenix an emblem of our resurrection.
Let us consider that wonderful sign [of the resurrection] which takes place in Eastern lands, that is, in Arabia and the countries round about. There is a certain bird which is called a phoenix. This is the only one of its kind, and lives five hundred years. And when the time of its dissolution draws near that it must die, it builds itself a nest of frankincense, and myrrh, and other spices, into which, when the time is fulfilled, it enters and dies. But as the flesh decays a certain kind of worm is produced, which, being nourished by the juices of the dead bird, brings forth feathers. Then, when it has acquired strength, it takes up that nest in which are the bones of its parent, and bearing these it passes from the land of Arabia into Egypt, to the city called Heliopolis. And, in open day, flying in the sight of all men, it places them on the altar of the sun, and having done this, hastens back to its former abode. The priests then inspect the registers of the dates, and find that it has returned exactly as the five hundredth year was completed.
Chap. XXVI. We shall rise again, then, as the Scripture also testifies.
Do we then deem it any great and wonderful thing for the Maker of all things to raise up again those that have piously served Him in the assurance of a good faith, when even by a bird He shows us the mightiness of His power to fulfil His promise ? For [the Scripture] saith in a certain place, "Thou shalt raise me up, and I shall confess unto Thee; " and again, "I laid me down, and slept; I awaked, because Thou art with me; " and again, Job says, "Thou shalt raise up this flesh of mine, which has suffered all these things."
Chap. XXVII. In the hope of the resurrection, let us cleave to the omnipotent and omniscient God.
Having then this hope, let our souls be bound to Him who is faithful in His promises, and just in His judgments. He who has commanded us not to lie, shall much more Himself not lie; for nothing is impossible with God, except to lie. Let His faith therefore be stirred up again within us, and let us consider that all things are nigh unto Him. By the word of His might He established all things, and by His word He can overthrow them. "Who shall say unto Him, What hast thou done? or, Who shall resist the power of His strength?" When and as He pleases He will do all things, and none of the things determined by Him shall pass away? All things are open before Him, and nothing can be hidden from His counsel. "The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament showeth His handy-work. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge. And there are no words or speeches of which the voices are not heard."

Climate and Average Weather in Moldova
Moldova's climate is temperate continental with the four seasons of the year are clearly defined. It has mild short winters and long hot summers with a lot of sunny days. The atmospheric air circulation is characterized by the prevalence of the western warm and sometimes very humid air masses from the Atlantic..
Occasionally, air masses from other regions come to Moldova as well, such as the warm and humid air from the Mediterranean. This brings with it abundant rainfall. The dry temperate continental air from the Eastern and South-Eastern parts of the Eastern European Plain causes drought and the cold Arctic air causing dramatic weather changes. There are 2060?2360 hours of sunshine per year in Moldova; temperatures above freezing are registered 160-200 days per year; and precipitation ranges between 370 and 560 mm/year and more than 10% falls as snow, which can melt several times during winter.
Interested in more detailed Weather and Climate information?
Please select the city you wish to travel to, or the one closest to your destination. Each selected city will show you the following graphs:
1. Average minimum and maximum temperature over the year
2. Average monthly precipitation over the year (rainfall, snow)
3. Average monthly hours of sunshine over the year
On certain pages we also offer other historical weather data like humidity, wind speed and water temperature.

Starting bodybuilding so young at 12 years old I was very carful about the kind of weights I did ,opting for higher reps and super clean form.
I educate myself over the years reading every book on nutrition and training experimenting with different program design and foods to see what worked best for me.
At 15 I started competing and by 18 I discovered a 4 day a week off season split and a 2 day on 1 day off pre competition split really worked well.
Here is the pre competition split with a sample workout.
Day 1 Chest Biceps -20 minute Jog
Day 2 Legs
Day 3 Speed walk/Abs 40 minutes
Day 4 Calves Shoulders Triceps
Day 5 Back Hamstrings

B Decline Press 4 x 10-12
C Cable Crossovers 3 x 21s
D Laying Bench Curls 3 x 10-12
E Hammer Curls 3 x 10-12
F Barbell Curls 3 x 10
Throughout using methods like;
Triple drop, Forced reps, Negatives,
I Go You Go, Forced Negatives, Dropsets.
Days off are important to really recover and also listening to your body, we all feel overtrained at different times symptoms being.
1.Loss of appetite
2.Lack of interest to train
3.Feeling tired and bad sleep
4.Raised morning pulse rate
Don't feel you have to train just because your diary says so , as you get more experienced learn to listen to your body and learn the difference between "I cant be bothered " and " My body says NO"

Hello: I was recently watching a computer class at the school I work in as a sysadmin play with Microsoft Excel, and I realized something is missing from the TABLE spec, as drafted in the HTML 3.0 draft and/or the Netscape, NCSA Mosaic and other implementations: charts and graphs. Currently the only way to create such charts (and you see them realtively often) is to make them as pictures, and use the IMG tag to display them. Here's a better idea I've been thinking about: We currently have the TABLE tag and its enclosed elements, which allow us to create a table of data, something like this (for example): ______|_ A _|_ B _|_ C _| Now, we all know how to create this in HTML One | 123 | 456 | 789 | using TABLE. Ok. Done. I have a table of Two | 911 | 666 | 555 | numeric data, on my page, with each column Three | 987 | 654 | 321 | and row labled. Now, in Excel (getting back to my point), I could select this, hit graph, and it would come back with a beautifully rendered graph, something like this: __________________________ Of course, it would look better, and I could | | render it in any sort of style I choosed, | X=One YZ | including 3D and whatnot. Now, I'm sure that | Y=Two YZ YZ X | browser authors could figure out what Micro- | Z=Three YZ XYZ XY | soft has figured out, and give us a graph | YZ XYZ XYZ | from a table, too. So I have an idea I'd | XYZ XYZ XYZ | like to hear some comments on: | A B C | |________________________| We take the basic TABLE spec, as is, and add an attribute to the main TABLE tag, the CHART element. If present, it would define a type of chart, and the browser would take the following table data and attempt to convert it into a graph. For example, to create the above, I might use <TABLE BORDER CHART=bar>. We could define a couple basics, say bar, line, pie and chart. Everything else (including 2D vs. 3D) could be done via style sheets. Well, actually, charts could be done via style sheets entirely too, but I think that HTML needs to stand on its own without them, and this would be a good feature to add directly to the spec. Of course, it'd be a somewhat optional feature of HTML 3.0 (use that magic 'should' word when discussing implemntation), sorta like displaying the image in the SRC attribute of IMG or (the proposed) FIG. If the client was unable to display a graph (either it didn't support it - try doing this reliably on a vt100 - or the data was too complex or non-numerical), it would simply display the table, as written. All the TABLE tags would be supported (BORDER, ALIGN, CLASS, ID, all that other stuff that no browser supports currently), as with TABLE's content tags. And, although the spec (IMO) shouldn't say anything about how the table is to be formatted, it should reccomend something like the following: <TABLE CHART=type> <CAPTION> Table title </CAPTION <TR> <TH> </TH> <TH> First data point name </TH> <TH> Second data point name ... </TH> </TR> <TR> <TH> First data set name </TH> <TD> Data for first data point, first data set </TD> <TD> Data for second data point, first data set ... </TD> </TR> <TR> <TH> Second data set name </TH> <TD> Data for first data point, second data set </TD> ... </TR> ... </TABLE> And so forth.

Social workers are generally classified into two distinct areas of practice: clinical and direct-service. Clinical social workers help people with behavioral, emotional, and other problems through diagnosis and treatment. Direct service social workers instead help families, communities, and individuals cope with everyday life problems, such as abuse, poverty, criminal behavior, and other issues. Social workers can either work "in the field" directly with families, usually through the auspices of a particular non-profit or governmental agency or in clinics, private practice, hospitals, or educational institutions.
Social workers earn an average salary of a little over $42,000/year (as of 2011.) The job prospects for social workers appear very strong, with over 25% growth expected in the next ten years. There is continual demand for psychological, health, and social support specialists, particularly in major metropolitan areas. In order to become a social worker, an undergraduate degree is usually required. However and in addition, a specialized Masters degrees in Social Work or in a related field such as Economics, Statistics, or Psychology is desired and/or required.

Here's a set of screens for Tripwire Interactive's Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad, the game featuring a single-player campaign that lets you play as the Germans during World War II.
The single-player German campaign drew a great deal of attention when it was first revealed, but there's much more to the sequel than strapping on your Nazi boots. There are two new multiplayer game types, persistent stat tracking, a morale system, a new first-person cover system, and true-to-life ballistics for every WWII-era weapon. Perhaps the most interesting new feature is the Hero system, which allows particularly good players to shine on the battlefield, raising troop morale and gaining access to the best equipment in the process. I can just imagine the insufferable pricks this system will breed.

Facial Rejuvenation in a Bottle
Our dermal clinicians work with medically advanced facial skincare, where results are a must.
However, they commonly get questions from their patients asking;
- Why is your product so good?
- How is it different from something I can pick up over the counter at the chemist or local supermarket?
- What is Chirally correct?
We're all looking for that elusive genie in a bottle, a genie, that is going miraculously appear and solve all our facial skincare and aging woes.
But, unfortunately, this does not seem to be a common reality.
If you're like most women, your bathroom shelves will pay tribute to the trial and error process to find that 'perfect' facial skin regime.
We purchase products that the lovely shop assistant with flawless skin (most probably genetic) recommends.
If we use this facial cream, or that serum it will miraculously strip the past 10 years from our face and resemble her dewy porcelain complexion!
It's not only the genie we've all been missing. It's that we don't have a basic knowledge of how good facial skincare works. Or what things we should be looking out for in a skincare regime. It really isn't necessary to have bathroom drawers full of products; all it takes is a few simple changes to the types of products we buy and what to look for, which can go a long way for our skin and our importantly our purse strings.
Seek Advice
Most importantly find a skincare regime that is tailored to your skins specific needs. Too often we see women self-diagnosing problems and buying products that are just not necessary or create more troublesome skin. Seek advice from a professional Dermal Clinician or Doctor who is able to assess your skin and pinpoint concerns and treat you accordingly.
Choose Chirally Correct Products
Never heard of Chirally Correct? Don't worry its a relatively new term but one to look out for in your next skincare purchase. We often buy skincare that smells amazing, makes our skin feel like silky when it's applied and feels hydrated to touch, but these products are only touching the surface of your skin (mostly dead skin cells). We need our products to reach deep beneath the dermis to create change. Now, this is where Chirally Correct comes in… In chemistry, Chirally is usually a term which refers to molecules. A molecule becomes Chirally correct when the molecules are purified in production to rid the negative aspects of it and save only all the essential goodies our skin needs. The body recognises the corrected molecule and opens its channels allowing penetration of the product deep into the skin without any reaction. Because the molecule has been purified it is smaller whereas over the counter products contain molecules that are too large making it difficult to be absorbed and no changes deep down can actually occur. There's nothing fighting the aging process or nurturing the cells within. Common Chirally correct skincare products are Vitamin A and Vitamin C to name a few.
This is a big one, and as the skin ages, it is going to need a lot more hydration. Too much or too little hydration can make a huge difference in the appearance of your skin and how it ages. Having a chat with a professional is key to finding the right level of hydration for your age, lifestyle and skin type. Also, drink plenty of water!
Vitamin A
If you're not already using a product that includes an active Vitamin A then you're missing out one of the most beneficial products for your skin. This product can't usually be purchased over the counter and should be prescribed by a Dermal Clinician or Doctor often due to the potency of its Vitamin A content. Vitamin A will increase cell turnover which in turn aids in lifting deep sun damage, hydrates the skin, and helps refine pesky fine lines. your skin's quality will become more refined and rejuvenated. Definitely, a product that every woman should be introduced to,
Vitamin C
Vitamin C and Vitamin A together represent the power couple of skincare.
In a nutshell Vitamin C = COLLAGEN PRODUCTION.
Without collagen, you don't have a firm skin. Introducing Vitamin C will also work to fade pigment.
Wear them! Everyday.
If you require further assistance or advice regarding facial skincare products, go to our Aesthetica facial skincare pages or email our experienced dermal clinicians for a complimentary consultation today, or call on 03 9824 6134.

The staff and Dr. Paul Blair hear from many women and men of the advantages of injectable fillers. Dr. Blair offers several of these fillers (also known as dermal fillers) as a treatment program to minimize the signs of aging.
Juvederm® is one of these fillers. It is made from a substance that occurs naturally in your skin.
What is Juvederm®
Juvederm® is a gel dermal filler that instantly restores your skin's volume and smoothes away facial wrinkles and folds. For many patients at Dr. Paul Blair's practice located in West Virginia he finds Juvederm® is an ideal way to rejuvenate their skin without surgery.
With Juvederm®, Dr. Blair and his staff are able to offer patients a safe and effective means to achieve a smoother and younger-looking appearance. Juvederm® is made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance that helps to hydrate and add volume to your skin. We regularly offer Juvederm® to women and men from Hurricane, Huntington, Teays Valley and other neighboring communities.
How does Juvederm® work?
Because Juvederm® is easily injected into the skin to provide a natural look and feel; a single treatment presents immediate and optimal results on facial lines and wrinkles. In fact, most patients need only one session to achieve superior wrinkle smoothing.
A Juvederm® session generally takes about 30 minutes and is performed in our Hurricane office. Patients may feel slight pain during and after the injection, but we can numb the treatment area to help minimize discomfort.
How Long Does Juvederm®
Juvederm® results can last up to one year. Repeat injections or Touch-up injections, are usually needed to maintain excellent results.
If you have seen those facial wrinkles and fold lines that are signs of aging. We recommend you contact our office today to see if Juvederm® might be right for you. Call our office today at 304-201-3223.

An epic supernatural thriller, Suvarna Sundari revolves around a fabled 'Trinethri Idol', and how it affects several lives in the course of its journey from the 15th century to modern times. Directed by MSN Surya, the film features Poorna, Sakshi and Jaya Pradha in central roles.
Sorry! None of the critics have had a chance to review this movie yet.


text: In this review of Consciousness, I learned that materialist theories of consciousness are out of favor. Everyone is back to dualism of one sort or another. In significant part because of "the knowledge argument, which says (to put it very simply) that materialism is false because it is possible to know all the physical facts and yet not know all the facts." Or, "the knowledge argument rests on the intuition that Mary learns something on coming out, that is, that she comes to know something that she did not before. It is this intuition (or rather this intuition combined with the intuition that she knew everything physical)". Mary knows all the physical facts and then goes out to look at an apple and thereby knows something new, seems to be the idea. I wonder about the intuitions here, partly because I just don't share them (I don't think she does have new knowledge, he just has an experience), but also because I wonder the argument is that ties consciousness and knowledge together for the knowledge argument. I am sure there are well-developed and clever arguments in the background (it is just a review, after all and does refer to key pieces of the literature - some will go on the long list of to be read). I don't see any close connection between consciousness and knowledge, and do not see why an experience must embody knowledge.
