Dear Patriots across America,
You may recall a few days ago I launched a massive counter attack against Dukakis boy Comrade Jason Chaffetz (R--UT) for his gutless spineless act of treason against Congressman Mark Meadows (R-NC)
Well guess what ?
The strong and battle tested Congressman Mark Meadows (R-NC) has now been reinstated as subcommittee chairman on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee after he was stripped of the position for voting against Obamatrade.
Rubio voted for Obamatrade too and I am going to dismantle his political ass across this nation. He knows it and is already preparing to defend himself against me his treason against us with Obamatrade. Ted Cruz once again listened to me and reversed his decision on obamatrade. Nobody wants to feel the political pressure I can put upon a politician.
Well I launched a massive tactical and surgical political air strike against Comrade Jason Chaffetz for his despicable act of bullying against my friend Congressman Meadows. Chaffetz you are pissing off the wrong person. I will dismantle you county by county, voter by voter and REC by REC across Utah. I will crush you politically like a flea on a dog's ass and we will remove Communist RINO punks like you from office when your time is up.
I am not going to take credit for this but I will salute the Tea Party and Conservative leadership I contacted in NC and UT which initiated thousands of phone calls to Congressman Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) office. Comrade Chaffetz officer announced yesterday that he would reverse his earlier decision to punish Meadows.
Punch Meadows for a vote against tyranny and oppressive United Nations Trade ideologies ? Who the hell is this guy ?
Patriots across America you must never back down. We must salute Congressman Meadows as he fought back. Our Congress needs to filled with Americans with a spine and intestinal fortitude. We need people that will follow the Constitution now matter what the cost. Congressman Meadows is such a man.
When asked to resign his post, he also refused and made Chaffetz fire him. Then he went public and held his ground. Jason Chaffetz is an empty suit. A Cockroach bottom feeding amoeba hiding as a Republican. I will keep my foot on his carotid artery until he voted out of office.
"There is no honor in bowing to a bully," Meadows said. "There is only honor in fighting a good fight – win or lose. This is not a fight I will back down from."
The Tea Party groups and the good people in North Carolina - Utah and across the country spoke out against these attacks and supported Congressman Meadows. A win for freedom. As for Jason Chaffetz............... I am not done with him. I am just starting to bring him down. Rubio best pay attention. If you don't follow the Constitution my foot is in your ass. John Boenner and Mitch McConnell know this already.

A snake can back down and go back into its den, but when it decides to come out again it's still a snake.
Agree Mickie. I posted a thank you to him on Facebook when he owned up and put Rep. Meadows back in as Chairman of the subcommittee and really caught heck from one of the posters. Chaffetz does deserve another chance.
Which of us are more perfect than Chaffetz? Are we not all fallible? What is important is his overall long-term performance, coupled with his willingness to back down when he is proven wrong. There are many other additional pertinent issues with which we need concern ourselves vis-a-vis Chaffetz, I would guess..
We must all get on the bandwagon--no more words only action. God help us all. We stand. +++
Amen and Amen, Thanks for the information, I am 88 Years old and a Veteran of WWII, and I have been hopeing someone would lead on the issue of HONOR IN CONGRESS.
As the puppet of the NWO, Rothschilds, and Rockefellers et. al.
As conservatives we already have a list of congressmen that has alligned themselves with the courrent leadership in the house, they voted to leave him in office. It is those reps that the Tea Parties and any other conservatives should start targeting. Should your rep does not want to unload Boehner they will be subject to our replacement.
Yes!!!! It's time to put an end to the Bullshit. Let's rid the world of RINO's snf progressives of all shades.
The proper name for those who support the ones that are attempting to dismantled the freedoms of this country, They are called "Quislings". We have an enormous amount in this administration. Kind of like finding fleas and needing to disinfect the whole lot.
Onr more thing Chief, you are a ray of pure light. I salute you and wish more would join in the fray..
A. Menges, 1SG USA.
I love where this discussion has gone. I truly believe that there is but one course of action left. We the People have no other option but to take our country back. But who will lead ? I'm pretty fed up. It seems like daily we are losing more rights or SCOTUS is re-defining the Constitution. Where will it end and when will the governed people get their say. It's about Obamacare, illegal immigration, gun control, TPP, Syrian refugees, same sex marriage, ISIS, the UN and the list goes on and on. A country founded on Christianity and now the Christians are being targeted. But leave the Muslims alone for God sake. The government is full of traitors but they go unchallenged. It is either time to give up and accept our fate or take back what is rightfully ours. I am in favor of the latter. I have rambled long enough. God bless America, again.

One of the most recent biju attacks on a hidden village, the Kyuubi attack was a complete surprise because it just showed up next to the village of Konoha. A moderate section of the village and village wall was destroyed in addition to a large number of fatalities including the Yondaime Hokage.
Commonly Known Events
The attack began October 10 67AF, when the Kyuubi appeared without warning outside the village. Moments later, it was apparently summoned into the village itself. Konoha ninja led by the retired Sandaime Hokage immediately engaged the Kyuubi and attempted to push it back. The Yondaime appeared and briefly engaged the Biju to stop an attack on the Hokage Monument before vanishing again.
The defending ninja began being pushed back before the Yondaime reappeared and teleported himself and the biju outside the village, where he died sealing it into Naruto Uzumaki.
Later Revealed Events
Yondaime Hokage Minato Namikaze's wife, Kushina Uzumaki, was the jinchuuriki of the Kyuubi. She was giving birth in a secure location when Madara Uchiha attacked and kidnapped Kushina. He unleashed the Kyuubi and used his Sharingan to take control of it. Madara then invaded Konoha and summoned the Kyuubi to him. Madara left to eliminate the Yondaime, but the fight was largely a stalemate despite Minato landing blows against the otherwise untouchable Uchiha.
The Yondaime abandoned the fight to return to Konoha as the Kyuubi pushed the defenders back. He teleported the Kyuubi to where his wife was, and she proceeded to use her special abilities to hold the Kyuubi in place for Minato to perform the sealing. The loss of Kyuubi and injuries sustained during the events resulted in the death of Kushina.

Chi Sigma Iota chapter recognized for suicide awareness walk
The first Out of the Darkness Campus Walk at Madison was held in April 2011.
James Madison University's Alpha Sigma Chapter of Chi Sigma Iota, the international honor society for the counseling profession, is the recipient of the 2012-13 Outstanding Chapter Individual Program Award. The honor recognizes the exceptional growth and achievement of JMU's annual Out of the Darkness Campus Walk, which promotes suicide awareness and raises money for prevention efforts.
Lisa Ellison, a graduate of JMU's counseling programs, coordinated the first Out of the Darkness Campus Walk at Madison in April 2011. Last spring, despite blustery conditions, the walk drew over 300 participants, some from as far away as Alabama, and raised more than $16,000 for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
The event, held in partnership with the Central Valley Counselors Association and involving volunteers from local suicide support groups and mental health agencies as well as JMU student organizations, also provides information and education regarding mental health services, signs and risk factors for suicide, and activities to help those at risk or who are bereaved.
"Part of our responsibility as counselors is to support and advocate for others," said Janice Lewis, president of the Alpha Sigma Chapter at JMU. "The Out of the Darkness walk has been a way to do that while promoting resilience."
This year's event will be held on April 21, with registration beginning at 11 a.m. followed by a ceremony at noon. The three-mile walk will begin at the Festival Conference and Student Center. Registration and additional information is available at www.campuswalks.org and via the Alpha Sigma Chapter's Facebook page.
Dr. Deborah Sturm, assistant professor of graduate psychology at JMU and faculty advisor to the Alpha Sigma Chapter, said the event provides an opportunity to support surviving family members and friends who experience a complicated and often isolated bereavement process. "Promoting an event to bring them 'out of the darkness' called for such a careful balance, always mindful of being respectful without being too somber and infusing hope without insincere hype," she said.
Dr. Lennis Echterling, professor and director of counseling programs at JMU, credits the event's success to "a wonderful integration of dedication, advocacy, clinical sensitivity, scholarship and organizational effectiveness."
Representatives of the JMU Alpha Sigma Chapter will accept the award from Chi Sigma Iota during the American Counseling Association Annual Convention in Cincinnati on March 22.

The Senate headed reached a resolution of an impasse over unemployment pay on Tuesday night after Senator Jim Bunning, Republican of Kentucky, dropped his objection to extending jobless benefits in exchange for a largely symbolic vote on paying for the aid.
Mr. Bunning's agreement to relent essentially short-circuited an intensifying political battle that had already resulted in 2,000 workers at the Department of Transportation being furloughed without pay and in the temporary cutoff of benefits to thousands of out-of-work Americans.
It came after Mr. Bunning's fellow Republicans began to air their own concerns about how the Senate blockade had the potential to damage their political brand while also having a direct impact on their constituents. The Senate later voted 78 to 19 to renew the programs.
While Democrats hailed the progress, they also said Mr. Bunning's decision to delay the aid had caused serious disruptions in federal programs and could create bureaucratic problems as people tried to reclaim their federal aid.
"Sometimes just because we have the power to do things, we ought to think twice before we use that power," said Senator Richard J. Durbin of Illinois, the No. 2 Democrat in the Senate.
With Mr. Bunning's battle quickly becoming a national cause célèbre, Senator Mitch Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the Republican leader and Mr. Bunning's home-state colleague, made clear earlier that Republicans were trying to end the stalemate.
And Senator Susan Collins of Maine, a moderate Republican colleague of the conservative Mr. Bunning, joined Democrats in trying to force the measure through, calculating that perhaps a plea from a fellow Republican would get him to change his position.
"When I was home this weekend, I talked to constituents who expressed their utter bafflement that Congress could not proceed on something that has widespread support," Ms. Collins said.
While trying to blame Democrats for mishandling the entire matter, other Republicans also distanced themselves from Mr. Bunning, whom Democrats were holding up as the embodiment of what they say has been a maddening pattern of Republican obstruction in the Senate.
"This is one senator," said Senator John Cornyn of Texas, a chief political strategist for Senate Republicans. "This does not represent the position of the caucus."
Other party officials said that while the Bunning fight was not helpful, it probably would not do serious damage as long as it ended rapidly.
Republicans were not just unhappy that the back-and-forth was allowing Democrats and editorial writers around the country to portray them as heartless curmudgeons, denying jobless aid to struggling Americans while Mr. Bunning complained that late-night debate was preventing him from watching a college basketball game.
The attention to the impasse was also cutting into Republican efforts to focus on the evolving Democratic strategy on the health care overhaul, which Republicans are trying to portray as an end-run around Senate rules. Instead, Democrats were having a field day citing Mr. Bunning's repeated objections as evidence of how Republicans abuse the rules to delay needed legislation, helping them build a case in favor of using any available tools to overcome such opposition.
Complicating the situation was the fact that Mr. McConnell and Mr. Bunning have a tortured relationship because Mr. McConnell was instrumental last year in making it difficult for Mr. Bunning to seek a third term. The rift left Mr. McConnell with little leverage to apply to get his fellow Kentuckian to retreat.
Not all senators were engaged in Bunning-bashing. "He's my hero this week," said Senator Jim DeMint, the conservative Republican from South Carolina, who said Mr. Bunning was exposing Democratic hypocrisy of embracing budget controls but adding spending like the employment aid to the deficit. "We have to quit complaining about unsustainable debt and passing new spending programs every week."
The fight spread to the House as well, with Representative John A. Boehner of Ohio, the Republican leader, saying Mr. Bunning has "got a legitimate argument that he's making."
At the same time, dozens of House Democrats sharply criticized Mr. Bunning, with Representative John Yarmuth of Kentucky saying he was "embarrassed that a senator from Kentucky is holding our government hostage."
Last week the House passed the bill at issue, which provided a 30-day extension of unemployment benefits, health insurance subsidies for the jobless, the highway construction program and a handful of other expiring programs to allow Congress to work out more permanent legislation. Mr. Bunning almost immediately began lodging his objections, insisting that the unemployment help be offset by money from other sources.
As a result, the programs lapsed as of Sunday, forcing the Department of Transportation to furlough 2,000 workers without pay on Monday and shut down dozens of construction projects.
In addition, jobless benefits began running out for thousands of workers across the country, though a broader measure now before the Senate would restore them retroactively.
Even as negotiations toward a resolution continued, a parade of Senate Democrats kept up vigorous expressions of displeasure with Mr. Bunning.
"I come to the floor of the Senate to say to my colleague from Kentucky," Senator Barbara A. Mikulski, Democrat of Maryland intoned Tuesday with a bit of biblical fervor, "let the unemployment bill go."

MY NEW FAVORITE DENTIST!!! Are you looking for a doctor of dental science who is interested primarily in the health of your gums and teeth and not in selling you cosmetic treatments? Are you looking for a friendly, inquisitive, doctor, who oozes integrity? Look no further. I had an unpleasant experience with a cleaning elsewhere. So I was feeling a bit squeamish about visiting another dentist. Dr. Docktor made me feel like I had walked into the cradle of care. His receptionist is friendly and easy to work with. His office is clean. The technology is up to date. And on top of all this, his rates for a consultation are reasonable, and… and… there is a delicious Jewish deli (Schlesinger's) directly across from his office. Do yourself a favor. Go to Dr. Docktor, floss every day, and eat at Schlesinger's. Everything will be as it should in the world!!!

I was suffering from severe pain for 1 1/2 days and was unable to get an appointment with my dentist given that he was out of town. I was referred to another dentist by his office that was also unavailable. My husband made an appointment with Michael Docktor's office the same day to assess the problem. He and his staff were very kind and caring. Dr. Doctktor quickly had x-rays taken, reviewed my dental history with me, and assessed the situation. He informed me that it was likely I would need a root canal and asked if I would like for him to find someone to see me today if possible. I said yes (mind you this was a Friday morning at 11am). He called a few of his contacts and was able to obtain an appointment with an endodontist on my behalf within 5 minutes. From his office I was able to go to the endodontists to get a root canal. I am happy to report that the root canal was a success and I will definitely be returning to Dr. Docktor's office for my crown. I am very grateful to Dr. Docktor and his staff for helping me out at a time when I was suffering from great pain. I had a pain free weekend thanks to Dr. Docktor's guidance and referral.

I was in the process of making an appointment with my previous dentist for a cleaning, when her receptionist was nice enough to inform me that their office would no longer be accepting my insurance.
I had to look for a new dentist for the third time in 4 years (this is due to my employer's changing my dental coverage every few years).
I went on my insurer's website and found my current dentist and recalled that a few of my friends have already been his patient(s).
I showed up a little early for my appointment and was seen right away, and the hygienist (whose name I forget) was great! She was very thorough and was quite adept at removing the tobacco stains off my lower teeth.
Aside from the fact that my gums were bleeding like a stuck pig, the overall experience was a great one. I got to see the dentist himself for several minutes after my cleaning and he was very responsive and attentive to my queries.
My only hope is that he'll continue to take my coverage and or my coverage won't change yet again…
And also there are flat screen TVs in all the rooms, so I was able to catch up on the days news whilst getting my teeth worked on!.

You know, moving to a new place and having to find a new doctors/dentists can be a little scary. I have heard one too many horror stories. Thanks to Yelp, I found Docta Dokta, and I have to say, I like him even better than my previous.
The receptionist is so nice. The hygienist is hilarious and extremely thorough. And the dentist was very kind. We actually discussed evolution for a few minutes. Like Sid said, each room has its on tv conveniently place only a few inches from your face, so I got to watch the news during my cleaning.
Love love love it!! Go to this guy!
Emily D.
Philadelphia, PA
Overdue for a cleaning and new to Philadelphia, I cross-referenced my insurance provider's list of dentists with Yelp's reviews. Dr Docktor's office was the only dentist's office out of my list that had a human answer my phone call, so I scheduled an appointment.
Anna, the receptionist, is super friendly, helped me figure out my insurance situation, and fit me in for a cleaning within a few weeks. I've had to call her for a couple other things, and she's been so pleasant to work with. Dr. Docktor and the hygienists were incredibly thorough and friendly, and you can tell this is a practice of just honest, good people, which I really appreciate in a healthcare provider. The office is tidy and has some local awards and plaques from Philadelphia Magazine & others. The rooms have skylights and generously sized TVs with MSNBC if you want to catch up on the news, but I had a really interesting conversation with a hygienist about sci-fi and special fx dentistry, which was pretty cool. The teeth cleaning was gentle despite my unflossed teeth and we talked (only briefly) about why flossing is logically important to prevent decay between teeth (why hasn't anyone told me this before?!). Though the office itself is a little dated, all of the technology is very current, and they took digital x-rays of my teeth (something my former flashy dentist's office didn't do), which Dr enlarged on the screen. That was pretty interesting and helped me understand his recommendations.
I feel confident that the Dr and hygienists are going to keep my teeth in good shape, and I trust them if I ever need any major work done. I recommended the office to my dentist-averse friends, and will be going here as long as I'm in Philadelphia.

New to Philly? Parents aren't scheduling your dental appointments for you anymore? Have no fear – Doctor Docktor and his team will make sure it all happens smoothly. They are wonderfully helpful, provide a great cleaning, gentle reminders about flossing, and they seem to take insurance.
I may try to go back more than every six months, just because Sharon (the hygienist) is so fun to chat with.
Philadelphia, PA
Love dr Docktor and his entire staff!
Elizabeth P.
Philadelphia, PA
I found Dr. Docktor through Yelp in search of a new dentist in the city. My previous dentist in the suburbs was so awesome, but too far to travel to. Unlike many dentists and doctors, Dr. Docktor takes his time with his patients to make sure that they are comfortable and having the best possible treatment for their teeth. The hygenists are also extremely careful and well-trained in their expertise. Even though I usually hate cleanings, my experience at Dr. Docktor's was almost pleasant! I had to return a few days later for a small filling, and that wasn't bad either! If you are looking for a superior and caring dentist, I highly recommend Dr. Docktor and his staff. They even give you a warm moist towel to wipe your face after your cleaning or treatment. First class care!

Azure SQL Database is Microsoft's Database as a service on the cloud. While your production database might reside on the cloud, developers might want a local copy of the Database on their local SQL Server. If you are someone who is looking for options to copy your Database locally then there are several options available. We have collated a list of options which we think are based suited for this purpose. Read along to find out the various options available to download Azure SQL Database Locally for Testing.
Recommended option to download Azure SQL Database Locally for Testing
The best option to download a local copy is to use the "Export" option available on the Azure portal. This option will create an exact copy of your Azure SQL Database to a "bacpac" file. This method will ensure that your database "Column properties", "constraints definition ", keys "PK and FKs", stored procedures and triggers are also retained. This is also a recommended approach from Microsoft for Database Migration from Cloud to On-Premises. In order to migrate the Azure SQL Database locally, perform the following steps:
Also Read: How to Backup an Azure SQL Database
- Step 1: Logon to the Azure Management Portal and go to your Database properties.
- Step 2: Select the "Export" option from the top menu bar.
- Step 3: Under "Export Database" section, type in a filename and the storage account where you want to export the bacpac file. Exporting to a storage account in the same location is recommended due to performance considerations.
- Step 4: Type in the Azure SQL Username/Password and click on "OK".
- Step 5: Download the bacpac file using Azure Storage explorer. Download the Azure Storage Explorer here.
- Step 6: Import the bacpac file into your local SQL Server.
See the screenshots below for your reference:
Steps 1,2,3 & 4:
Step 5: Select the Storage account and the container to download the bacpac file
Step 6: Import the bacpac file into SQL Server installed locally
If you are using the latest version of SQL Server Management Studio, then you can ignore "Step 5" and directly import the file from your Azure Blog Storage. See the second option in the screenshot above.
Other Methods to download Azure SQL Database Locally for Testing
- SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) : ETL your data using the Import/Export wizard with Azure SQL Database as your source and Local SQL Server as your destination. However, your logins, Constraints, Stored Procedures, Relationships are not transferred and everything needs to be done manually.
- DB Creation Scripts: Manually create Database scripts and run them on your local server.
Hope this was helpful. Do let us know your feedback in the comments section.

Idea of a perfect day: Spend about 10 hours online getting lots of things done. Then go out for a drink.
Greatest misconception about Wikipedia: We aren't democratic. Our readers edit the entries, but we're actually quite snobby. The core community appreciates when someone is knowledgeable, and thinks some people are idiots and shouldn't be writing.
Prized possession: The SureFire M6, a super-powerful flashlight. I wanted a brighter flashlight and discovered a subcommunity of flashlight people online, and found that this is the ultimate. It is aesthetically pleasing because it is carved out of aluminum and is very small. It costs 400 bucks.
Superstition: I tend to eat things in fours. I'll eat four nuts, four grapes, four chips at a time. I don't know why. It's not really a superstition. I don't think anything bad will happen if I don't, but three potato chips doesn't seem right.
Morning routine: I have no regular schedule. I get up whenever I can. I open my computer and check my mail. People start instant-messaging me, and I chat with them.
Personal hero: Mitchell Kapor. He's the inventor of Lotus 1-2-3. Back in the day, it was the spreadsheet application. Today he does amazing philanthropic work.
His computer: It's a MacBook, and I put stickers on it from all the conferences I attend and things I support. In Japan, for example, the Firefox web browser has this cute mascot. It's a fox with a flaming tail, and I have those stickers.
Favorite movie: "The Matrix."
Favorite TV show: "Lost."
Favorite musician: The Gourds, a band from Austin, Tex., that does an alternative-country cover of a Snoop Dogg song.
Latest gadget: I'm really spiffed about the Sidekick. It's a mobile device that is a cell phone with a flip-open screen, a keyboard and has great instant-messaging. I can use it anywhere in the world, except Japan.
Always with him: I have my Tumi backpack. Tumi makes really expensive stuff, but it's super-durable, made for the heavy traveler. I carry my computer in the backpack everywhere I go.
Topic he won't bring up at parties: I have zero interest in sports of any kind — professional, college or international. If that topic comes up, I nod and try to look polite.
Guilty pleasure: Playing Scrabble on Facebook. I do that when I am supposed to be working.
Home decorating: Well, we have some artwork, but not collectible stuff. It is just, sort of, like a big picture of tomatoes.
Location: Florida was cheaper than California.
Favorite item of clothing: I have a black velvet sport coat that I wear quite often. It is soft, spiffy and it looks cool.
Personal philosophy: I was very interested in Objectivism in college. Objectivism is a philosophy developed in the writings of Ayn Rand. It values reason, purpose and self-esteem. Mostly, I try to take a rational approach to life.
Traveling ritual: I spend 250 days a year around the world, so I'm a little beyond ritual at this point. Wikipedia is a global phenomenon. There's a lot of interest in it, and I'm always promoting it, especially in the developing world.
What he misses about America when abroad: In the U.S. I don't drink Coca-Cola. Outside the U.S. I'll sometimes have a Coke, as a reminder of home.
Favorite place to visit: India. It still feels really exotic. If I go to Hong Kong or Tokyo, they are different in a sense, but still very organized, like an American city. India has so much activity and crazy stuff going on wherever you look, it always blows my mind.
Clothing item a traveling man needs: Anything black. Then you can spill wine on yourself, and it doesn't show.
Next big purchase: I think I'm going to get one of those Mini Cooper cars. I do a lot of work in San Francisco, and I have an apartment there with a very narrow garage. It would be easier with a small car.
Obsession: Currently, it's wikia.com. It is meant to take on Google by creating a search engine where all the editorial decisions are made by the general public and all the software is open.
Least favorite online behavior: There's plenty of rude stuff online. People say things online that they would be ashamed to say face to face. If people could treat others as though they were speaking face to face, that would be huge.
Place he spends most time: I work in bed a lot. It is a comfy bed. I have one of those Tempur-Pedic mattresses; it is space-age foamy and good for my back.
Best Wikipedia mementos: I have a couple of hats that were given to me by Wikipedians. This summer a guy from Tajikistan gave me a traditional Tajik hat. The other one is a traditional hat from Serbia. It is a little round, funny thing.
Collections: I collect books, and not only that, I do something unbelievably geeky with them, which is, I put little labels on the spines with Library of Congress numbers, and keep all the books in Library of Congress order. Oddly, I have never computerized the collection.
What's always in the refrigerator: Spicy V8 juice.
Fitness routine: Sadly, none.
Favorite non-Wiki Web-site: An invitation-only travel site called Dopplr.com. You put in your travel schedule and link to your friends. It allows you to see where everyone is. I love it.
Evening routine: See my 6-year-old daughter, Kira, off to bed. Then I sort of get in bed and read, then off to sleep. I'm asleep by 10 p.m.
Favorite restaurant: I am something of a foodie, and I try to eat in great restaurants wherever I can. I loved the Fat Duck, just outside London. It's an innovative and creative restaurant, and the meal I had there was amazing.
Favorite kitchen gadget: My coffee-maker. It is a Krups, and I find it beautiful.
Web-site he won't visit: I'd visit almost anything just to see what is going on.
Fantasy career: To paraphrase the movie "This is Spinal Tap:" "I think I can work in a chapeau shop, selling hats."

The car park where this walk starts is call the Kithurst Hill Car Park, but the name is not shown on the programme. It is signposted from the B2139 Amberley Road. The plan is to go to the Sportsman Pub at Cross Gates afterwards.

New little tune called "Looking For A Room", because that's what we were doing yesterday for my son who wants to move to Amsterdam for a while. Got some great tips from friends that live and work or study there. Thanks!
Still not there though, so any more tips welcome.
Hope you like the tune, dance to it, learn it and hand me a nice rendition that I can share. Would be great. Let's be creative and show it!
I used this tune to support a time lapse video I made of today's awesome sunset.

Great. And it shows that if you are taking care of your nutrition aka consider yourself a health freak – it is a big step ahead – as long as you enjoy what you eat and drink! That is my opinion. I eat healthy most of the time, exercise every day and love my glass of wine with my dinner and a non-grata food item once in a while. Thank – great short piece of information.
Of course, the unethical gotcha in this sneak of study is they've included a lot of unhealthy people in the health nut category….1 serve of veges? come on! The adverse effects of moderate alcohol intake will be masked by the group's lower baseline health. If they chose real health nuts, with higher baseline health, then alcohol's toxic effects would be more obvious.
I didn't know that I was health freak for most of my life
One of the problems I saw in an article (a long time ago) was that the non-alcohol intake group in studies included not just T-total people who never drank but T-totalers who drank an awful lot before practicing abstinence.
When these two types of non-drinkers were separated the article suggested that those practicing abstinence were worse off health wise than those who drank very little and that those who didn't drink but didn't have a history of drinking were better off than moderate drinkers.
It's ashame I don't have the article to hand, or know where to find it and I don't think it effects your analysis (especially for the study on us "health freaks") but interesting non the less
In another video, he links low levels of pesticides to Alzheimer's. Many, if not most wines likely contain low levels of pesticides. So… maybe not as healthy as he thinks, unless you choose a biodynamic or organic wine.
I am looking for advice in the best diet for a recovering
alcoholic. I have heard cravings for alchohol might be decreased by consuming
less grains as they are metabolically the same as drinking most liquor and
beer. Is this true?
I have never even thought about diet for recovery! Perhaps focusing on diet is just one healthy behavior among many that can help. One study found just that. Alcohol craving in rehabilitation: assessment of nutrition therapy "Patients who received nutrition therapy reported significantly fewer hypoglycemic symptoms, lower sugar intake, less alcohol craving as well as significantly greater nutrient intakes; a greater number abstained from alcohol. These findings indicate that nutrition therapy can aid in the recovery from alcoholism." I think mindfulness, which of course means something different to us all, plays a large role in recovery or change. Being mindful of our choices, our health, families, relationships, and physical activity. This video discusses research on trans fats and aggression. The results from this study show that the more hydrogenated fats consumed the greater the risk of aggression, perhaps something a recovering alcoholic may want to avoid? Lastly, diet has been found to improve mood.
Although I am not sure the best diet, choosing more whole foods and more of a plant-based diet could help. Whole grains are just fine and are nothing near similar to the calories from alcohol.
Thanks again for reposting this great question!

Dr Greger—Your videos and articles
are great. A question: How do our microbiota get into our gut in the
first place? As babies do we ingest our mother's poop? Is everyone's
hygeine so poor? Do the bacteria survive our upper digestive tract?
Hi John. Thanks for all the great questions did you ever get around to posting about the "anti-nutrients" ?
Here is a study that described babies and gut health.
I found this line particularly interesting "Thus, maternal dietary and microbial exposures are also crucial to the development of the microbiota early in life, as children may inherit genes with differing potential for predisposition for malnutrition or obesity, based on the diet of their mother."
Hope this helps!
When I consume alcohol I experience, what I'll call, an inflammatory reaction. My symptoms include joint and musculoskeletal discomfort and pain when touched. I can only assume something is happening at the cellular level. My consumption is 1-2 drinks or glasses of wine. I'm not binging or drunk. Can you shed some insight?
What if i don't drink during the week, follow a whole plant diet and do some exercise, but saturday night i have more than moderate consumption of alcohol (though high quality alcohol, organic or good brands), let's say for instance: 2 liters of beer OR 1 liter of wine AND 2 oz of another drink, like whisky, vodka or gin?
We got good Quality Medicinal,Natural Pure Green Herb,Wax,marijuana,Cannabis Oil,Seed,Hash cure cancer and chronic pains contact us for info Text/call..7744821204 ..
My mother had two brothers. One drank alcohol and became addicted to it. He died of cirrhosis of the liver in his 40's leaving orphaned children as their mother had already died of the same disease. Her other brother did not drink alcohol nor smoke. He died recently at 97 years old having lived to know his great grandchildren. His mind was clear up to the end. It's great when we can learn some things the genius way – from the experience of others.

Report: Pacers reach out to Cavs after George says he'll become a free agent
Paul George has reportedly made his intentions absolutely clear to the Pacers — he will play out the final year of his contract next season, but plans to enter free agency in 2018.
MORE: Celtics trying to land superstar Anthony Davis
The Vertical reported today that sources indicate George would prefer to end up with the Los Angeles Lakers. The 27-year-old forward is a native of Southern California. The Pacers, however, began shopping George, including a phone call to the Cavaliers, sources told ESPN.com today.
George said last week he expected to play out his contract with the Pacers in 2017-18, shooting down rumors that had him bound for the Cavaliers. The four-time NBA All-Star, who averaged 23.7 points per game last season, has repeatedly vowed his loyalty to the Pacers' organization.
George's loyalty be what prompted him to make his decision known. According to The Vertical, George instructed his agent, Aaron Mintz, to tell Indiana president of basketball operations Kevin Pritchard about his decision now, to "spare the franchise any confusion about his intentions."
Ironically, George's well-meant intentions will put pressure on the Pacers to work out a deal with another team, to move George in exchange for assets, rather than just let him walk into free agency.
George stands to rake in a big contract as a free agent. The Vertical reports he could sign a four-year deal worth as much as $130 million with the Lakers next season.

Scholarships and Grants for Adopted Children
From the larger organizations to the smaller initiatives, there's a lot of resources that are available for children who are adopted and who want to go to college, and these include scholarships and grants for adopted children. Even though the ones that are below are not solely for children who are adopted, they are going to help with paying for college.
The American Legion Legacy Scholarship
This first of the scholarships and grants for adopted children is something that's intended for biological as well as adopted children of those who have been in the military and that were killed after 9/11 or while on duty. For eligibility, the students have to be either seniors in high school or those who've graduated and are planning to further their education at an accredited institution. They have to also complete an application that's going to include some sections regarding financial standing as well as academic activities and achievements. It's also required that they attach a copy of the birth certificate of their deceased parent. There is more information here: legion.org/scholarships/legacy.
College Tuition Waivers
This second of the scholarships and grants for adopted children is a bit different. Although it doesn't' happen all over the country, there's states that provide waivers for tuition for those students that have been adopted as well as those who have been in foster care. The different states are going to be different ont the requirements, but it's information that's often able to be found on the education departments of the state. Even though a lot of the scholarships are just for colleges in-state, it can be for as much as full tuition or as much as $10,000 or more.
Scholarship Program of Orphan Foundation of America
This final one of the scholarships and grants for adopted children is geared towards those students who were adopted or were in foster care. It offers funds for them to pursue higher education. For consideration, students have to complete an application online along with those supplemental materials that are going to be sent through email after the student submits the form. They also have to submit things such as copies of: papers of legal guardianship, adoption papers, or verification of their time that was spent in foster care. There is more information found at this website orphan.org/index.
These are three good examples of scholarships and grants for adopted children that can help them make their dreams come true.

Later on, the street was crowded with people trying to catch a spot for the procession, as I believe the chairs are reserved by and for all the residents. In a way, it could be called the quiet before the storm ;)

Academic software for organizing, sharing, and generating bibliographies for research papers.
Created by Elsevier
Since I believe that the comparison chart in em4020's review from August 2012 provides a slightly biased picture, I would like to introduce some more (slightly biased) comparison charts :-):
To those who didn't yet realize it: All these charts were created by the developers of the software tools being compared (also the one in em4020's review). I recently wrote about this problem in my Blog http://www.docear.org/2013/08/27/off-topic-which-one-is-the-best-reference-management-software-tool/
[Edited by joeran, October 30]
Although there are some bugs in Mendeley desktop and web import and also basic storage plan is very less, it provides all other features without bugging to take premium.
mendeley is really easy to use. and excellent retrieval of metadata. but: there is ONE big disadvantage. when you create comments in PDFs, mendeley does not export them. that means you cannot use PDFs and comments in other software. you are locked-in. source: http://www.docear.org/2013/10/14/what-makes-a-bad-reference-manager/ (i tried the export and it's true, comments in pdfs are exported in a crappy format).
i use zotero instead. not that easy to use but open source and excellent community. docear also looks nice.
I love Mendeley for creating and sharing references. A must-have tool for all University students.
If you do a lot of archival research and/or citing of non-published sources (personal correspondence, manuscripts, etc.) in your work, I would not recommend Mendeley. It does not contain the fields you would need to properly cite that kind of material. Zotero is the best alternative I've found for that kind of reference/source management.

This council has studied requirements for successful estate planning extensively and has practiced with and provides the following recommended services to protect any estate:
Pour over wills and send all assets of a decedent to a trust, previously designated as revocable which can in ones lifetime be changed but which becomes irrevocable upon death.
The establishment of trusts to administer the estate of a decedent according to ones previously designated estate plan avoids the need for probate court to administer and designate new owners for the assets of a decedent. Estate planning provides for the spouse and children of a decedent to immediately own the real and personal property of their spouse, provider or parent without need for delay to obtain court approval for distribution or division of decedent assets.
Creating Wills, Trusts & Estates with a Provo, Utah Estate Planning Attorney
Young parents are encouraged to designate guardians for their children should something happen to both parents simultaneously and provisions made for the children's' support with life insurance or other assets. All persons should make designations such as specific bequests to heirs of their real or personal property and have directives in place for matters such as time to be sustained on life support systems.
This counsel provides estate planning, wills and trusts, and where a decedent has passed on without any estate planning, this council provides probate services where heirs may be designated, assets administered and divided, creditors notified and closing of the estate pursuant to required court order.
Estate litigation provided by the firm includes case where decedent mother provided daughter quit claim deed leaving mother's home to daughter for daughter to provide life time care for the mother. Two other sons were thus left out of the inheritance when mother unexpectedly died with deed in effect and daughter had long since moved out of the home and had not provided the care expected. Mediation provided resolution to the two sons with payment by sister for their interest in the mother's home.

The last three weeks of October are in reverse order (reverse for blogs, anyhow) posted together, since i'm travelling my hind end off the rest of the month: enjoy!
Hebron Crossroads 10-12-2003
By Jeff Gill
Fall colors are out all across the landscape; I refer of course to the broad spectrum of campaign signs seen all around the Hebron Crossroads.
Red, white, and blue; black and white; Buckeye scarlet and grey; Browns earth tones; public safety yellow and black. Every possible set of colors is in use, and they are part of the lively conversation that is democracy. Voices, letters to the editors, talks across tables strewn with coffee cups and disemboweled newspapers, color schemes on signage; all help keep the discussion going.
The Hebron Lions are sponsoring a public discussion of sorts: a "Meet the Candidates" night at Hebron Elementary's gym on Tuesday, October 14 at 7:00 pm. All candidates have been invited for offices relating to the Hebron area. Your friendly correspondent will be the moderator, and questions will be written down by those attending, passed up to yours truly, and I'll assemble them together into a common set of queries to ask following three minute statements by each candidate.
Some unopposed offices won't have representatives there, although I'm told John W. Slater will appear as sole candidate for Union Township trustee. We'll have Lakewood school board candidates, those running for Hebron council, and the mayoral seekers each in turn by office.
I'm looking forward to asking your questions and hearing the candidate answers, and kudos to Hebron Lions for putting on this new tradition for our village.
By the way, all signs are required by the county Board of Elections, whether handmade or store-bought, to have contact info even if in small print on the lower edge. . .a word to the wise. . .
It is good to see that most offices are contested. A healthy sign for democracy is a number of candidates, not a long run of unopposed elections. We have a conversation going on through Hebron village council and our regular planning and zoning meetings about the pace and scope of growth in this area, and the election is just one more stage in the ongoing discussion.
Our current crop of village officials have done a good job of "managing" growth, which in truth can't be halted (private property being part of the Great American Conversation, y'know), but can be kept within certain reasonable bounds. Dominion Homes builds 200 homes, not 400; apartments have certain requirements to be met even when the owner wants to maximize their income off of their part of an acre.
More is not always better, and less is certainly not always more. What makes for the right mix between Heath's expansion toward Beaver Run Road and Columbus' surge from the west will be the context for our elections for many, many years to come.
So support this great new initiative by the Hebron Lions on Tuesday, October 14, which we'll no doubt be thankful for as a long-standing tradition in the coming election cycles. Let your candidates speak, and ask them your questions; that's what makes democracy the only spectator sport for real grownups!
Community Youth Mapping is beginning in our area this week. Young people may come to your door or to your business, asking your perception of what makes for good activities for youth and families. This program out of the county Children and Families First council is part of a county wide effort to identify assets and strengths, as opposed to focusing on problems and needs.
If we can target the effective youth-serving programs in Licking County and help them to grow, we'll really have something! Give those "youth mappers" the benefit of your best sense of what's good in our community, and I look forward to sharing with you the results.
Three calendar notes to share: A Baked Steak dinner is offered at the United Methodist Church of Hebron on Saturday, October 25, from 4:30 PM. The Price is $5.50 for adults, $2.00 for children, and carryouts are available.
Hebron "Beggars Night" will be on Thursday, October 30, from 5:00 to 7:00 pm; don't forget to put your porch light on if you welcome trick-or-treaters, and turn it off if you're not involved.
And, well in advance but exciting news: the Veterans' Memorial Committee for Hebron announces that on Veteran's Day, November 11, at 1 pm, a dedication is scheduled out at Evans Park on Refugee Road. We'll have more to share soon, but mark that date and time on your calendar now. It is after Election Day on November 4, but plan now to join us if you can as Hebron honors her veterans out of the Hebron school.
Jeff Gill is pastor of Hebron Christian Church and your "Meet the Candidates" night moderator Oct. 14 at 7 pm in the Hebron Elementary gym; if you have electoral notes to offer, call 928-4066 or e-mail email@example.com.

Hebron Crossroads 10-19-2003
By Jeff Gill
With the harvest well on the way to the storehouse (aka garner, silo, bins, or elevator), and the leaves mostly on the lawns, we are deep in the heart of autumn.
Next weekend, we "fall back" an hour, and the circadian rhythms have to go through what is, for me at least, the most jarring reset in the calendar.
Many of us have recently experienced one of the rites of fall: school pictures.
To no one's surprise here in the home of the Little Guy, pix week came with visible facial blemishes (thanks to one of the myriad colds circulating at school, church, and playground).
But modern photographic technology has the answer. One option they offer in the school package is "Soft Impressions," which allows the parent to blur the child's face into Hollywood style soft focus (kind of like shooting Cybill Shephard thru a filter on "Moonlighting"). Or you can trust the rapid healing properties of youth and the fact that you're recording the facts of growth, not the myths of idyllic childhood, and capture warts, raw nose, and all.
Actually, the whole range of choices left me thinking about how much more challenging parenting is these days. Aside from hazards of drugs and debauchery unknown (we like to think) in past generations, did our parents have to choose between eight primary selection packages, a dozen shades of backdrop (wasn't it a glorified window blind they pulled down behind all of us?) ranging from fuschia to teal, and among stickers, key fobs, and screensaver CD-ROMs?
I really think my mom had to decide between four wallet sized or eight, and whether or not to slick my ill behaved hair down with Vaseline (she didn't).
The decision of what to wear on school picture day, on the other hand, has been a parenting challenge throughout the ages.
Mrs. Lincoln: "Little Abe, are we goin' to pull on the linsey-woolsey trousers, or wear those patched ol' leather breeches?" Mrs. Madison: "Lil' Jemmy, what in Heaven's name did you do with the buckles on your knickers? Those buff colored hose will never go with the butternut jerkin in your portrait by the travelin' painter fellow." Mrs. Hezekiah: "Young Adonijah, what have you done with your good twist o' leather to gird your loins? This scrap of burlap can't look right carved into a mud tablet."
We will probably end up with 144 stamp sized photos, a mural adhesive picture suitable for sticking to the living room wall, and eight of that "in-between" size that you can't send to the grandparents and is a little too large for sending to old college friends with the Christmas letter. We also didn't pick the Hanukkah dreidel with his picture embedded in Lucite on one side; that will have to wait for another year.
On a slightly more serious note, Hospice of Central Ohio would like to offer a special program to the southern half of Licking County.
Are you a "Caregiver"? Are you part of the "sandwich" generation, with children in school and parents who need special care to allow them to stay in their homes, or just to support a better quality of life in a care facility? Do you need to hear how others deal with the stresses, the strains, and the rewards of caring for a family member of friend as the bridge between formal medical care and the loving community each of us wants to have around us?
"Meeting the Challenges of Caregiving" is a four week series that will start on Thursday, October 30, at 7:00 pm. Hebron Christian Church will host the program, run by the caring professionals of Hospice of Central Ohio, on that date and November 6, 13, and 20 in their meeting room at 612 W. Main next to the church building.
The series is free and open to anyone whether currently providing caregiving services to a friend or family member, or simply if you expect to be in that position someday. . .which pretty much could describe almost any of us.
If you have questions or would like more information, call Hospice at (740) 344-0311 or (800) 804-2505.
Don't forget: next Saturday, a "Baked Steak dinner" is offered at the United Methodist Church of Hebron on October 25, from 4:30 PM. The Price is $5.50 for adults, $2.00 for children, and carryouts are available. And that night, set your clocks back one hour, and change your smoke detector batteries!
Jeff Gill is pastor of Hebron Christian Church and a strong advocate for the life affirming work of the Hospice movement. If you have tales of caregiving or news of local interest, call 928-4066 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.

Hebron Crossroads 10-26-2003
By Jeff Gill
Beggar's Night at the Hebron Crossroads is Thursday night from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm.
You can, if you wish to participate, turn on your porch light, and leave it off if you'd rather the trick-or-treaters pass your door by.
Some folks just set out a bowl of candy on a folding chair when they're forced to be away, and the interesting thing about Hallowe'en is that you rarely hear of that strategy going awry. As with Mark Twain's death, reports of October 31 related misbehavior are often greatly exaggerated.
On this night of costumed and sugared excess, certain proprieties are observed. There are always a few visitors who seem a bit too old for the sport (I keep a bag of carrots near the door for them), and once in a great while the campaigners for the next week's election get turned around on dates and show up all too well disguised as politicians: otherwise, the kids are alright, as The Who once said. I've seen Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey on Beggar's Night, along with Mick Jagger, Benjamin Franklin, and He-Man, plus Ariel, Pocahontas, and Cinderella.
Last year I got Fidel Castro (he had no idea how scary he was), Mickey Mouse, a giant M&M, a pair of dice (twins), and Gumby. This year I'm curious to see if anyone pulls off Nemo or Dory, or Arianna Huffington would be a scary choice in my book, and I hear the Incredible (Mini) Hulk may make an appearance in our neighborhood.
Some neighborhoods get their hundreds, and others have but a few nearby visitors, depending on the arrival of van loads from isolated spots in the township. You can eye this practice cynically, but if there's a "thank you" behind the mask or make-up, I really don't care where the kid lives. And I hear many more thanks than grunts each year from the parade of princesses, wrestlers, ballerinas, and spidery-juveniles.
Can you forgive a bit of preaching? This pastor notes that, while there are "so-called" pagan roots of Hallowe'en, the word pagan itself comes from a root meaning "the countryside, *paganos*." Folk tradition around the turn of the seasons, with shortening days and skeletal trees against ghostly moons, was gathered in by the early Christian church to be baptized into their calendar as a day to honor the dead in faith, the saints or "hallowed dead" of the Church Eternal, on November 1. That makes the eve of All Hallows' commemoration "All Hallows' Eve," or to adapt the Old English, Hallowe'en, October 31.
The flickering light of life, glowing out across the harvested fields from a hollowed vegetable shell, whether turnip, gourd, or pumpkin, echoed the light of God placed within the human form. In a day when the ravages of illness and death were more clearly and regularly seen by young and old alike, the nighttime meaning of the Jack O'Lantern was reassuring and hopeful, not scary and dreadful.
Our need to laugh at the growing dark and sing out our faith in light's certain return is well expressed by the best of Hallowe'en traditions. The sweetness of youth, and age's acknowledgment that life is a gift to be given to the young are all a wonderful part of this "frightful" holiday. We mock the power death claims over life, and celebrate the end of one season rooted in the deeper promise of brighter, longer days to come.
Sounds like a holiday worth celebrating, right? In the right way, anyhow, as with most celebrations, even including the pagan rituals of Buckeye victories. . .
Outhouse tipping, thankfully, is a relic of the unlamented past, and let's keep any newer property damage related pranks in your trick-or-treat bag. . .or there's a costumed crusader (not caped) who will show you a few tricks with handcuffs and citations to appear before an ominously robed individual.
Honor the best that Hallowe'en represents, and you'll find a depth to this season you may have missed!
Don't forget on your own calendar that Election Day is Tuesday, November 4, and that the Veterans' Memorial Committee for Hebron announces a Veteran's Day, November 11 dedication at 1 pm in Evans Park on Refugee Road. We'll have more to share soon, but mark that date and time on your calendar now. Plan now to join our community if you are available as Hebron honors her veterans out of the Hebron school.
Jeff Gill is pastor of Hebron Christian Church and father of a little Hallowe'en celebrator; if you have seasonal insights or tales of the Great Pumpkin, call 928-4066 or e-mail email@example.com. Mark All Hallows' Eve responsibly, and let's all be here in November to celebrate Thanksgiving!

The leading name for an online marketplace globally, is Amazon. Markets, both online and offline are customer centric because of the variety of options the customers have. This spells trouble for the sellers, because there is cutthroat competition for them, in the form of competitive pricing. Different sellers offer fluctuating prices throughout the year, making it difficult for you, as a seller, to constantly change your prices without affecting your profit margins. We at Nevpro understand these seller concerns and have created a solution called the Amazon Repricer.
The Amazon Repricer is a tool that constantly studies the variation in the prices of your competitors' products and changes your products' prices accordingly. It monitors the changes in the standard prices and discount rates offered by your competitors and in turn, changes the price of your products, so that there is fair competition in the marketplace.
A fully automated software, the Amazon Repricer tool lets you, the seller, set a minimum price of your choice. This is so that you do not sell at a price that affects your profit margin when competing with others. If the set price has been reached , our Amazon Repricer Tool deactivates the product entry.
A seller has a tough time setting a price. It must be high enough to collect a good margin, but low enough to attract customers. This balance gets thrown off during a 'sale' or when your competition lowers their prices. Because of the sharp rise in Amazon sellers, it has become extremely difficult for individual sellers to grow as fast as they used to. This is because of the substantial increase in the sheer number of sellers on the platform. For instance, there may be ten different sellers for the same product. A potential customer will see all ten sellers and naturally, opt for the one selling it for the lowest price.
This is where our Amazon Repricer Tool comes in.
Our software analyses the change in pricing of the competitors' products and sets your products' price according to their prices. It is called a repricer, because of its function of analyzing market prices, and changing the price of your products as and when required, in a set manner. To gain an edge over your competitors in the marketplace with the Amazon Repricer, visit us at easyrepricer.com

I hope you're having a great week! I'm sorry I haven't been blogging lately. I've had real life (including a power outage a few days ago) and I haven't been able to log into the game as much as I wanted. Today I was finally able to log into the game again to continue decorating for the Santa Run which is planned to occur on Saturday, July 16th at 1:00 P.M. CST. We'll be meeting in the Commons in the Greyrose Realm for the run itself.
I've been decorating my house more than I have since the event is only three days away. This post isn't just about me decorating my house. This post is an update of what I've been doing on the game and what the event will be like. I'm trying to let as many friends as I can know about this event since it's going to be a very nice one. I think this event will be as fun as the Bunny Run including even more prizes than what was given away at the Bunny Run earlier this year.
If you read my Contest Giveaway post, I'm sure you read the part that says there will be Random Gifters at the event. Most of the giveaways will happen at the Afterparty at random (so don't ask who's gifting because nobody will tell you). I can assure you that it will be random and very rewarding. You never know if you could win something! You could win a Game Card Pack... OR even a Mount. These random giveaways are not limited to anything in the crowns shop so you will know if you're chosen to win something. This event will be a lot of fun so be sure to spread the word about it to your friends! If you would like more information about this event, click anywhere on the image below! There is also a list of times of when the event will start. :) Until then, I'll see you around the spiral. :D (Let's get the community together for a lot of fun - make new friends, invite everyone because everyone is invited).
11:00 a.m. PT - 12:00 p.m. MT - 1:00 p.m. CST - 2:00 p.m. EST

For Men
We offer one-to-one therapy for men, as well as group therapy and intensive recovery programmes. Here, we'll describe to you a little more about one-to-one therapy.
With our knowledgeable, experienced therapists offer a safe and containing environment to share honestly and openly what is going on for you. Sexually compulsive behaviours have many subtle but powerful effects on many dimensions of your life. Sex addiction leads to a 'double life', the need to lie all the time, problems with intimacy, physical contact, and sex; distortions in thinking, behaviours that increasingly diverge from your values, and ultimately a sense of being inauthentic, lost and alone. Your therapist understands well the despair, anxiety and isolation you are experiencing and will provide you with a safe, non-judgmental space to begin unpacking what has been happening.
Through psycho-education, you will begin to understand the underlying causes and cycles of your addictive behaviour, and will be provided with the tools to put a stop to these cycles. As therapy progresses you will also explore the deeper themes, patterns and underlying issues of your life.
This therapeutic relationship is a hugely valuable resource to support you in the difficult early days of recovery, through to you your on-going journey into a more fulfilled and satisfying life.

Morley awarded grant through LEAP and Greater London Authority
We are excited to announce that we have been successful in being awarded two grants from the Mayor for London and the London Economic Action Programme (LEAP) through their Skills for Londoners Capital Fund.
The grants, £1.1 million from the Capital Investment Fund and a further £200,000 from the Small Projects and Equipment Fund, have been specifically awarded to contribute to a £3.5 million investment in modernising and enhancing our buildings and facilities. The entrances to the College and our Gallery will be transformed so that they are fully accessible, a lift will be installed in the art block giving access to all floors, new teaching and social spaces will be created along with a centralised student advice hub, and a specialised internet radio studio will be established to serve both the College and the local community. At the same time we will be able to pursue our digital inclusion plans by extending our specialist technology for programmes serving the creative industries, and ensuring the students we serve in community settings have access to the same excellent learning resources as those at the College.
Speaking about what the award of these grants will mean for the work of the College, Chair of Governors at Morley Peter Davies said: "We are thrilled that the Skills for Londoners Capital Fund will be supporting Morley's plans for the future. Morley has for too long been seen as a 'hidden gem' within the educational sector and these developments will help ensure that what we provide serves the skills needs of an increasing number of Londoners ever more effectively."
The Skills for Londoners Capital Fund programme is managed by the Greater London Authority and funded by the LEAP. Chaired by the Mayor on London, the LEAP made available £114m of funding for investment into estate and equipment for London's skills providers over the next four years. The aim of this fund is to:
- respond to current and future skills requirements of employers and learners, improve quality of provision and learner satisfaction, progression and success rates
- support increased levels of apprenticeship delivery and/or progression to the highest levels of vocational and technical study
- establish strong and innovative partnership with employers and local stakeholders.
This fund forms part of the £434 million funding allocation to LEAP from Government to invest into the Capital's regeneration projects and help create jobs, support businesses and encourage growth.
Speaking about Morley's development plans, Deputy Mayor for Planning, Regeneration and Skills Jules Pipe said: "The Mayor and I are committed to helping Londoners gain the skills that they and the capital's businesses need. This investment will help provide a first-class environment in which learners can make the most of their talent."

Agia Triada
Agia Triada, Chania, Greece
Agia Triada 30 minutes
Four kilometers west from Phaistos are the ruins of the wonderful Royal Villa, the Small Minoan Palace at Agia Triada. Hagia Triada (also Ayia Triada, Agia Triada, Agia Trias, Greek: [aˈʝia triˈaða] — Holy Trinity) is the archaeological site of an ancient Minoan settlement. Agia Triada is situated on the western end of a prominent coastal ridge, with Phaistos at the eastern end and the Mesara Plain below.
Hagia Triada has yielded more Linear A tablets than any other Minoan site. Important finds include the Hagia Triada sarcophagus, the Chieftain's Cup, the Boxer Vase, and the Harvester Vase. Hagia Triada is in south central Crete, 30–40 meters above sea level. It lies four kilometers west of Phaistos, which is situated at the western end of the Mesara Plain. The site was not a Minoan palace but an upscale town and possibly a royal villa. After the catastrophe of 1450 BC, the town was rebuilt and remained inhabited until the 2nd century BC. Later, a Roman villa was built at the site. Nearby are two chapels: Hagia Triada in the deserted village and Hagios Georgios, built during the Venetian period.

cats get in the way
Little men with little hats,
running with the bats.
over the hedge and under the fence,
dodging frustrated cats.
people call us gnomes. but thats not who we are...
were pixies born from guilded stars.
hearing mother nature call when all the leaves begin to fall.
sprinkling diamonds in woven webs on frosty mornings
when all thats green slumbers in its bed...

No my point was that I think Braxton will get snaps at QB primarily as a runner -- even if he does not have the requisite arm strength to throw. I'm talking 10-15 snaps a game perhaps.

Recent Activity
I think the argument that Barrett is more accurate than Jones underneath is more perception than reality. If you go back and look at my reviews last year from games such as Illinois and Michigan, you can see there were games when Barrett missed open mid-range throws. Certainly I think he can improve but I don't think it can be argued that Barrett should start ahead of Jones because he was more accurate on such passes last year.
As someone mentioned above, we saw this scenario play out against Minnesota and Indiana. OSU had some breakdowns up front, which allowed those offenses to gain yards rushing. But they stuck with playing their base defense. I think part of that can be attributed to "you have to walk before you can run" and last season was certainly a learning curve on getting the nuances of Ash's system down. But I also think it does put pressure on the DL to maintain gap responsibilities and the LBers to correctly diagnose the play and leverage the football.
They will play cover 4 -- but with special calls to account for trips. I will detail those calls in my next column.
The call side is the side where the "over" goes. In other words, the 3-technique is going to the call side. The 1-tech away from the call side.
Last year OSU did it both ways. They started out guys playing one side and sliding in and out. But about halfway through the year they decided that Bennett was being wasted sliding down to NG. So they kept him at the 3 technique all the time. But they kept Bosa on the offense's right side at all times.
OSU was primarily an 'under' defense for a long time under Heacock and Fickell. Once Ash came he installed the 4-3 over.
SAM or walkout linebacker its the same position -- the field linebacker.
Same thing re Strong and Free safety. As I state in the article, one plays to the field and one plays to the boundary. Whether you call them strong or free or boundary or field, in practice its the same.
I mentioned him. Specifically that moving Marshall some outside provides reps for Wilson and Samuel at H. Realistically, there are only enough reps for 2 guys there. But if Marshall is playing some outside and Samuel is playing some at RB, then you can get meaningful snaps for all 3.
Very astute observation.
Well I do have to say that "Dave" is the same play as power, which is a Meyer staple.
Power is pretty much a staple of every modern offense in football.
The problem with Dave was never the play itself -- its that they ran it too often even when opponents knew it was coming.
Personally think its premature to engage in a take down when we don't know all the facts. People are swearing up and down it all went down yesterday. If so its pretty unfair to assume the worst of Meyer & Drayton. If Drayton knew for weeks then its fine to say it is questionable (though it happens at a half a dozen schools every year). But far better to state we don't know all the facts and include that all important "IF"
On offense, I didn't really see a lot of adjustments from Oregon. Perhaps a bit more designed runs from Mariota but they basically tried to execute their offense.
On D they changed their coverages, playing a lot more cover 3 and QQH in an attempt to get additional secondary support against the run while still protecting themselves deep.
Most defenses today have to have some type of answer to spread personnel. Teams like TCU use a 4-2-5. You have Rich Rod with his 3-3-5. Some teams are like OSU used to be under Heacock, where they would have a base 4-3 under and then take a backer for a 3d safety (this is what 'Bama does).
But defense still comes down to the Jimmy & Joes and constricting space. Hard to find guys like Lee who can basically function as a safety and a linebacker. And yes, agree he is pretty much the perfect fit for that walkout LB position.
To me Marshall is a future NFL slot WR waiting to happen. He is a very smooth route runner. Just needs to develop more consistency.
Couldn't agree more. You don't normally see a senior like Grant that has played a bunch of games improve like that at the end. But the way he improved the last two months of the season was nothing short of remarkable.
Proof is in the pudding. How many explosive pass plays did OSU have in the last 3 games relative to the rest of the season? As I said in the article, its not only the arm strength; it's also the touch when Jones throws the football downfield. Barrett has a lot of his own strengths that he brings to the table and things he does better with Jones. But Jones is pretty unique with his ability to throw deep.
Not a read; just a fake. Part of why OSU used the jet sweep action frequently the last two games is that Jones is not as much of a threat laterally. So the jet sweep holds the backside contain.
If there was ever a game where the entire defense should share the award, this was it. I would argue that Lee is perhaps the most important player in this scheme but lots of guys had MVP level games -- Powell, D. Grant, Bennett, etc.

- See the Health Reform pages by Kaiser.
- See Healthcare.gov (includes data by state by insurance company on the national exchange).
- For states offering their own exchanges, one has to consult each individual exchange. Some offer at least summary statistics. Look for sections often called data, statistics, or research. A few examples are:
- See ObamaCare Facts for links to various studies.
- Health Reform Monitoring Survey (1st quarter, 2013+) (HRMS)
Urban Institute quarterly survey of the nonelderly population, to explore the value of cutting-edge, Internet-based survey methods to monitor the Affordable Care Act (ACA) before data from federal government surveys are available. Topics covered include self-reported health status, type of and satisfaction with current health insurance coverage, access to and use of health care, health care affordability, use of information about the health insurance plans offered through the health insurance exchanges created by the ACA, enrollment in health plans or Medicaid through the ACA exchanges, the importance of various criteria in choosing health insurance plans, whether the respondent received notice that his/her current insurance policy was canceled or would no longer be offered after 2013, worries about future health insurance coverage, and expectations about one's health insurance coverage. Additional information collected by the survey includes age, education, race, Hispanic origin, gender, income, household size, housing type, marital status, employment status, United States citizenship, smoking, internet access, home ownership, body mass index, sexual orientation, and whether the respondent reported an ambulatory care sensitive condition or a mental or behavioral condition.

I'm old.
I love anime and manga and Japanese live action movies, but I've seen too much and grown too old for endless shonen fighting action or high school love polygons or pre-teen girls with magic powers. I know all the tropes and cliches, and I knew a world before there was Pokemon. I have grown up and so have my tastes.
So it takes a special kind of story to hold my interest.
Soil is a creepy little mystery that takes place in Soil New Town, a prefab suburban community. An entire family of three has disappeared from this seemingly idyllic little town, and in their place are pillars of salt and a hamster heart.
Two detectives care called in to investigate: Yokoi, an extremely disgusting and sexist veteran, and Onoda, a nerdy and uptight rookie trying to make it in a man's world.
Was it the creepy old homeless cat lady? Was it the sullen loner teenage boy? Was it the eccentric new teacher? Was it aliens, like the kids seem to think? Was it the evasive council president? Or was it something more ancient and sinister? What we do know is that there is something cosmically wrong with the land on which Soil was built.
Answers take some time, but it's fun to see the layers slowly, painfully pulled back to see the grime and ugliness beneath the surface, like rotting wood under fresh wallpaper. It has a lot of elements in common with Twin Peaks and the X-files episode "Arcadia," and the art looks more like Adrian Tomine or Daniel Clowes (clean, solid lines with very little screentone) than what you would expect out of Japan.
Sadly, there is no official English language release yet (I'm looking at you, Vertical), but there is an ongoing fan translation.

System (Tenant) Level Custom Fields
With advance configuration, invoice complexity and workflow base extnesion I think we should have an option to define custom field at Tenant Level. This will help at various level i..e. invoice enhancement, batch process and workflow enhancemnet.
Hi Chirag,
Can you provide more details on the use case you had in mind? Perhaps you can come up with an example of how you would use this feature.
Hi Chi,
Example : 1
I can create set of field value which are common for certain type of customer i.e. Cutomer with "x" payment mething must follow certain rules. I can define those rule in generic system level table and then can use from workflow to take decison or get other set of value to use further in workflow.
Example : 2
I can define set of field value which then can be used as free Text in Invoice so i don't have to keep managing that text in word docuemnt.
Example : 3
This is more on CPQ side but in certain case I can even define proudct level rule or relationship so i can take a decion in CPQ side proived we will also sync the system level table to salesforce.
Hi Chirag,
Thank you Apurva for the update. Will wait for customer object feature. On Last use case you can add upgrade/downgrade scenaro which can be desing in custome object as what product are permissiable for upgrade or downgrade which then can be use in CPQ to fliter it out.
