Interested in wood-look tile? This video will show you how to properly install it!

I want to lay down a wood floor can I install over another floor if I glue it
Hi Frank, please contact our Tech & Installation Department at (800) 366-4204.
I want to put down water PROOF floors for the part of my home that doesn't already have hardwood.
I have a light oak as my hardwood. My brother is Down Syndrome and Autistic and is 55 with a lot of wetting problems so I need something easy to install and not real exspensive.
Do you have a video to help an old lady to put down a laminate wood look with little help?
God bless and thank you
Cindy lee
Hi Cindy, thank you for reaching out! Laminate is water-resistant but unfortunately not waterproof. You may want to look into luxury or engineered vinyl: https://www.lumberliquidators.com/ll/s/vinyl-plank/
We do have a few laminate installation videos in this playlist if needed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yzdye6Z9TY&list=PLAFD622439CD964C5

At a recent promotional event for TVB drama, Witness Insecurity <護花危情 >, Cilla looked all grown up in a pretty ivory layered dress with black sash. Pairing it with orange and cream platform sandals added some color to the outfit.
The most stunning aspect of Cilla's look is her hair! Jennifer Lawrence's "Katniss" from The Hunger Games may have sported the most famous side-swept braid, but Cilla Lok's braid has to be the cutest! Cilla's braid is neatly tucked behind her right ear, while her long hair flows down in amazing curls! This is a great alternative to wearing a headband, which can look overly girly!
Gaining popularity since last year's broadcast of Yes Sir, Sorry Sir <點解阿Sir係阿Sir>, 25-year-old Cilla Lok can easily pass for a high school student! Cilla entered the industry as a singer before becoming a TVB artist. Cilla will have a chance to fulfill her music dreams once again with the October release of her new album.

Cute hair, cute looks, cute dress. Cute. Isn't she the one rumoured to be the unfortunate lady in the recent "rape" scandal? Not her?
she's 25, i think the scandal girl is 23.
25? She looks like in her late teens!
I think her name is actually Cilla Kung, not Cilla Lok. Lok Tung is her stage name, so her last name is not really Lok.
Yes, she is Cilla Kung.
Wow she's gonna be 26 next Sunday and yet she can pass for a high schooler.
I was thinking the same… she looks 13 in the above photos!
Oops, I was thinking Cilla Lok…will make mental note for future. Thanks for reminder!
i like her! can't believe she's older than me but look like a teen. so jelly of her baby face.
i'd get arrested, they wouldn't even bother asking questions…

Yoga isn't just for the skinny ones. The ones who appear to already be fit, and to already feel comfortable in their bodies.
Yoga isn't just for the flexible ones. The pretty little things who can contort their bodies into whichever positions they please.
Yoga isn't just for the strong ones. The fierce ones who could take a nap in chaturanga, or hold themselves in an inversion as long as they please.
Yoga is for everyone.
Yoga isn't just for the spiritualists. The magical beings who can take their meditations to the outer realms of the universe, and sit in lotus position for hours.
Yoga isn't just for the hippies. The wild souls who find freedom in using the asanas as forms of expressions of their body, and find solace in having found an outlet that encourages natural and raw beauty – no matter the form it comes in.
Yoga isn't just for the fit middle-aged generation. The tough ones who find peace on their mat at the end of a long day looking after their family, job and home.
Yoga is for everyone.
Yoga isn't just for women. The goddesses who are able to harness Mother Earth and express Her beauty as Her energy flows through their bodies.
Yoga isn't just for men. The lions who find their strength to get through any battle in life by first conquering them on their mat.
Yoga isn't just for adults. Though able to harness and understand the concepts of the practice more easily, it is our duty to introduce it to the children.
Yoga is for everyone.
Too often we hear the words "yoga isn't for me" as we try to convince a friend or a co-worker to come to class with us. Their list of excuses usually includes at least one of the above in a way that states "I can't even touch my toes…" or "I need to lose some weight first" or "then will I have to start drinking green tea and smoking weed?"
This is where yoga has gone wrong. Because yoga isn't just for one, yoga is for everyone.
So next time this happens, this is what I'll say:
Yoga is for you. It is for me, it is for you, and it is for every single human being you come into contact with today – and every day.
Yoga isn't about being fit.
Yoga isn't about being flexible.
Yoga isn't about being strong.
Yoga isn't about being spiritual, or being a hippie, or jumping on the huge yoga bandwagon that is growing in our culture at exponential rates.
Yoga isn't about being a woman, a man, an elder, a middle aged, a young adult, a teenager, or a child.
Yoga is about being you, and every little detail that comes with that.
It doesn't judge, and strongly encourages slow starts as you spend your first few weeks discovering what those feet of yours feel like. It wants you to take it easy, to go at the pace only you choose. And it will reward you with the yummiest feelings as your baby steps turn into noticeable accomplishments.
It cares about your body as much as you do – sometimes even more. And as you move through a practice, no matter how slow or how extreme, the energy it creates of which flows through your body and mind are cleansing you of toxins, of diseases, and of negativity.
It teaches you to discover who you are – without all the noise. Who you are without the labels, the achievements, the awards, the titles, the materials. It teaches you who you are when all of that is gone and you are sitting with yourself in silence. Because that's the most important you.
It brings about questions in your mind that you've never thought of. About this world we live in, why we're here and what our purpose is. And it brings you answers – that will completely blow your mind out of the water and intrigue you to forever be digging deeper.
It gives you a pathway to peace, and a reliable door to open if and when that pathway is ever needed.
And because of this, it changes your life.
So, no…..yoga isn't just for me.
Yoga is for you.

It is very challenging on a day-to-day basis to remain aware that I am not my thoughts, I am not my feelings, I am not my history and I am not my story. The experience of this human life is so captivating – in all senses of the word. Captivating in the sense of wonderful experiences; captivating in the sense of holding our focus; captivating in the sense of holding us hostage. We are held hostage by the sensory information registered in our bodies and by our thoughts. We are held captive by the meanings we put to things and to events, to the unfolding stories that we ourselves are creating.
As Michael Singer describes in The Untethered Soul this is like getting so engrossed in a movie that we forget there is an "I", a consciousness that is actually sitting there watching the movie. Practising presence is about sustaining your awareness of the "I", the Self that is conscious of having this experience of this human life.
This is about practising presence as a way to cultivate your awareness of the experience you're having, yes, but ultimately, your awareness of the consciousness that is you, that is aware of having this experience.
Now, I'm not talking here of an intellectual awareness of the idea of a consciousness that is aware of having this experience. What I am talking about is this awareness as a "felt sense" that becomes a part of the conscious experience you are having, and of becoming a growing "percentage" of that experience.
What do I mean by that?
Practising presence (which includes, but is not limited to, mindfulness) allows you to be more aware of your thoughts and your feelings. Now, you might say, "what do you mean, more aware? I am very aware of my feelings and thoughts." But to the degree that you are consumed by your feelings, or disturbed by them, or that you feel in some way helplessly affected by them, then you are not so much aware of the experience as engrossed in it.
If I hit my finger with a hammer, I will be feeling the pain and all my awareness is caught up in reacting to the pain. Without practising presence, I don't have a detached awareness of myself having all these reactions to the pain, an awareness that is grounded in a solid sense of constancy, a sense that there isn't really any major problem. Instead, I am mostly caught up in feeling pain, in not wanting to feel pain, in being upset with myself for having caused myself pain, and in thinking about what I need to do to stop the pain. This is like being totally caught up in the movie or TV show, identifying totally with the character(s) and forgetting that you are just you, sitting on the couch, watching it.
Practising presence cultivates an awareness of my own presence, my own consciousness, my own self, that is unhurt in this experience, that is unchanged by it, that is always intact and pure and healthy.
The more you practice presence – and, especially, practising it in all sorts of ways, in daily life – the more you cultivate this awareness. And by awareness, again, I am not talking about an awareness of a concept. I'm talking about an experiential awareness, a felt sense.
So, it begins with things like mindfulness meditation, and mindfulness practice in the activities of daily living such as cooking, cleaning, walking, reading. Practising presence is not just something to do at focused times, like meditation. It is a practice that can be practised in all areas of everyday life, in the most mundane of daily tasks.
For instance, brushing your teeth. When you are brushing your teeth, where is your attention, where is your awareness? Are you trying to move around and get things done while you brush your teeth, treating the activity of brushing your teeth as necessary, but an impediment to doing the stuff you really need to do? Do you spend your time thinking about other things? Practising presence would mean simply bringing your full attention to the present moment in which you are brushing your teeth. This, in and of itself, is mindfulness. But beyond the simple mindful awareness, practising presence would mean intentionally being aware of your physical presence within your body. Engaged in the movements, the sensations.
You can practise presence while driving. While there is nothing wrong with listening to music when you're driving or having a conversation, try now and then just practising presence. Being present to yourself in the present moment, and fully present to your surroundings. Not in the sense of being "watchful". That is the experience of being a separate, individual observer/actor. Being present to your surroundings really means being present within your surroundings. Being present to yourself does not mean being engaged in thinking; it means being present within yourself. Aware of your internal experience including thoughts and feelings, but centred in a still place that is not engaged in the thoughts or feelings.
Practising presence can also be done in the sense of attending to things that need to be attended to, in the sense of not avoiding or delaying. For example, as you move through your living space, you might pass an item that needs to be put away. Every time you pass that item you may or may not notice it. You may think to yourself, "the next time I pass here I should…" Simply attending to that, here and now, acting on and with that awareness allows you to flow with the present, and with your awareness of the present (which includes both your awareness of your environment and of your own thought.)
Simply being present rather than distracted with your mind and focused elsewhere, increases the probability that you will notice what needs doing. Practising presence would then also mean once you notice it, you deal with it (obviously, not if you are pressed for time or in a rush.) This brings us to an important point. If you tends to be in a rush and pressed for time, then that is a state of not being fully present, is a condition that arises from not practising presence, and it is something that can be remedied by practising presence. But you must be willing to slow down. Ultimately, to be in the present moment, to be in the "now" and to practice presence, means choosing to slow down.

Alfalfa weevil larval feeding damage seems to be almost finished (fig 1.) throughout north central Kansas, for one of the following reasons: some larvae were killed naturally a few weeks ago due to the freezing temperatures, some were killed by insecticide applications, and some have just developed to the pupal stage and thus quit feeding. There are still a few active larvae (fig. 2) however, most remaining weevils are mature larvae, but there are also a very few younger ones (i.e. note the tiny larva that just hatched, at the tip of the pencil), plus a few pupae and adults.
Figure 1. AW feeding
Figure 2 Various stages AW larvae (Cayden Wyckoff)
Aphids are still present (fig. 3), but in tremendously reduced numbers, also probably for the same reasons as the factors that decimated the weevils, but plus–there are significant numbers of lady beetle pupae (fig. 4) and adults (fig. 5). This means there were significant numbers of lady beetle larvae previously feeding on those aphids. Hopefully, these ladybeetles will survive and move to any fields wherever they can find pests to feed on during the rest of the growing season.
Figure 3. Aphid (Cayden Wyckoff)
Figure 4. Lady Beetle pupae (Cayden Wyckoff)
Figure 5. Adult Lady Beetle (Cayden Wyckoff)
Many alfalfa fields have already just been/or are currently being, swathed throughout south central and north central Kansas. This should take care of any remaining alfalfa weevil larvae. However, it may allow some stem feeding, often called "barking", by adults especially under the windrows and may continue until temperatures warm up into the 80's.

According to Motorcyclist Magazine, the current Honda CBR929RR should get a displacement boost next year to roughly 1000cc.
The horsepower and torque wars in the open class are being won by Suzuki and Yamaha at the moment (with Suzuki on top). It is not surprising that Honda will bump its displacement to be more directly competitive next year. Expect styling changes, as well (the CBR600F4 received major updates after its second year of production and the CBR929RR is completing its second year of production).

"I've been into cycling on and off from a young age , BMX was the thing through the early years then onto mountain bikes in my 20's and 30's . But I really got the bug for road bikes around 2004. I loved the suffering but always thought I struggled with comfort and took longer to recover than everyone else and that's when I had my first bike fit which changed my whole cycling experience. A few years later I got a sales assistants job at Climb on Bikes and pushed to get the opportunity to get trained as a bike fitter. In 2013, I qualified as a level 1 BG fit technician and in 2016 got my qualification to use the Retül bike fit system and qualified up to a Level 2 BG fit technician.
As SKY always say "always believe in better " that is my approach when bike fitting, I have developed a passion for making cycling a better experienced for all cyclist from Hybrids ,Road endurance, Road race to TT set ups. The feedback has been so rewarding which has given me the ambition to set up my own business and focus all my attention to Bike fitting. "

Well, we finished up our work day, packed, and headed out toward Lake Tahoe without any plans.
We were searching for somewhere to go that wasn't too far. As I've said before, when looking at our location in Chester on a map, it looked like places of interest weren't quite as far away as they actually are. Gotta remember to use that little mileage representation scale down in the corner. :)
Anyway, for our days off and my birthday on July 29, I chose to go to Lake Tahoe since it was only about 130 miles and we'd never been. The goal is to avoid the glitz. We might do some touristy stuff, but we'll be looking for the hidden, or at least the less crowded, Tahoe.
We left around 5:00 and headed south on Hwy 89. It is a beautiful drive on a pretty good road without much traffic.
We went through Truckee and followed the Truckee River down to Tahoe City. I figured we could find a room there pretty easily on a Wednesday. And we could have, but after riding through town, we decided to turn around. We continued south on Hwy 89 along the West Shore.
Seeing lots of promising places, we presumed they would be more money than we wanted to spend. Eventually, we arrived in Tahoma on the West Shore. It was about 8:30 by then and we needed to find a room.
After making a few stops, we ended up at Tahoma Meadows Cottages Bed & Breakfast - it was recommended by a couple of the other places. :)
So is it a bed & breakfast or cottages? :)
It's actually a group of rooms in cottages, but they serve a full breakfast in the common room above the office.
The little sign on the door said we could call the owners up until 9:00, so I did. They happened to have the Tahoe Room available.
We took a look at the room and then checked in over the phone. It's a cute little room, but not too girlie. :)
In addition to the queen bed, there is a clawfoot tub/shower ...
and a fireplace.
There was an excellent booklet about Tahoma Meadows that also included lots of tips on restaurants, beaches, lake cruises and more.
Our room key allowed us to get into the office/common room where I picked up bunches of brochures to help set our itinerary for the next couple of days. We'll get more information at breakfast served between 8:00 and 10:00 a.m.
Oh, and they have free, really fast Wi-Fi. :)
Well, that's about it so far. I'm looking forward to seeing the beautiful water I've been hearing about and getting some great photos. We'll see what happens. :)

IAN KEATLEY V JJ Hanrahan.
It's the battle that just isn't going to end any time soon. Both out-halves are still developing and maturing as players and it seems that each passing month sees one man's stock rising, before his rival reels him in with a classy performances of his own.
Last night, it was Keatley's turn as the 26-year-old turned in a complete and convincing display in Munster's 18-14 win away to the Dragons. The Dublin-born playmaker kicked all of his side's points from the tee and generally put in a tidy display.
Head coach Rob Penney was greatly impressed with what he saw, particularly the 76th minute penalty from Keatley that sailed over from 47 metres out and sealed the win for Munster.
"Ian Keatley dictated territory beautifully and put himself in position to kick some wonderful goals," Penney told the Pro12.
"We got the decisive penalty from a great scrum and we were pretty confident that he had the distance, and as soon as he hit it he turned and walked away so we were confident that it was going over."
Another area that the New Zealander took satisfaction from was the set piece. As Penney alluded to, the scrum was strong, while Munster rolled several well-organised mauls in the time that Paul O'Connell was on the pitch.

The Dragons have made impressive technical improvements under Lyn Jones this season though, something that Penney highlighted as a hindrance for his pack. However, the Munster coach was happy with how his own side adapted and grew into the game.
"Our set piece was operating really efficiently, they defended in quite a unique way so it was hard to make some progress at times but once we got our structures right in the second half and were able to get runners in behind their defensive alignment we started to make some holes and off the back of those holes and pressure we were able to get some penalties."
Following hot on the heels of last weekend's 31-10 win in Cardiff, Munster have enjoyed a good return from their visits to Wales and have strengthened their lead at the top of the Pro12 table. Penney says all credit must go to the players.
"I'm really delighted to get nine points out of the last two weeks, it has been a real bonus for us and the lads have worked really hard coming out of Cardiff last week with a six day turnaround and travelling again. It's a great credit to the guys to get the job done."

Northern White Cedar
Natural Ability to Resist Moisture, Insects, and Decay
Low in Moisture
Northern white cedar inherently has very low moisture content, so once it is air dried; it becomes even more solid and sturdy, creating for you a stable and strong home. Northern white cedar will also resist the common problems associated with moisture accumulation in weaker types of wood, problems such as splitting and cracking.
Many other types of wood must undergo additional kiln drying because of their high levels of natural moisture. Because northern white cedar is not prone to absorbing moisture, it does not have to be specially treated.
Resists Insects
Like the natural oil on your fingertips, northern white cedar has a natural oil emitted from it. These oils (called thujaplicins) are natural insect repellents. Pesky bugs such as beetles, ants, and carpenter bees go out of their way to avoid northern white cedar.
Resists Decay
Remember those oils that resist bugs? The same oils resist the detrimental effects of rot and decay. Dont you wish our own bodies had a natural preservative like that? Because those oils help the wood to resist moisture so well, they are less likely to decay over time. If you want a log home that is durable, northern white cedar is the way to go. The logs can be maintained for over 100 years.
Northern white cedar is recommended for protecting the interior of a home, according to the Wood Handbook issued by the US Agriculture. Its ability to resist insect penetration and decay, its like getting an extra layer of insulation without paying for it. Not only will this protect your home, but it also helps retain the heat in the cold winter months in the northern climates. Northern white Cedar's ability to fight moisture also makes it great for building in the southern climates as well.
The Rich Color
Northern white cedar is as visually appealing as it is durable, stable, and sturdy. Its rich, honey color will enhance the beauty of your home with natural elegance and charm. When deciding what materials to build your home from, consider building from northern white cedar. Its ability to resist moisture, insects, and decay makes it one of the best type of wood from which to build your home.

Hi @hpkeong,
You are right! I was using Author as a function when in reality I should have been using the User() function. Author is actually the column name in my Sharepoint list. Then I justed used the ".Email" property to get them into comparable formats. Therefore, I was able to filter by the current user by fixing the syntax in bold below. Thanks again for your help! I wouldn't have been able to solve that one on my own 🙂

Hi @ramirezp
Glad that you have found by yourself the very tiny mistake.
I am just sharing my experience.
Have a nice day and Happy CNY.
Thanks @hpkeong! Happy CNY to you too!
for my case it worked, so

Why Plastic Surgery?
Plastic Surgery is the sculpture of the living
(Greek plastike = art of moulding).
There are 2 main aspects:
Reconstructive- aims to restore a body part back to near normal
Aesthetic- aims to "surpass the normal".
A Plastic Surgeon therefore needs to marry their broad surgical expertise with a very well developed aesthetic sense. Naturally the training required is long and arduous, but the final results always speak for themselves. Fundamental to such results is the ability to discern exactly what the patient is seeking, and whether that result can predictably be delivered. There are often many options, each with their pros and cons, requiring a detailed explanation.
I achieve this at consultation through hand-sketches, computer morphing and illustrative patient before-after pictures, until we both see the same ideal end-result and agree on a definite plan. Once this is documented, I get to work on the practicalities. When the issue is complex or needs real finesse, then there is no substitute for a full consultation in person.

ESL Teaching Jobs
Please complete the Application Form once only.
If you are interested in several positions, these can be discussed with a member of our team during your initial interview.
What qualifications do I need to teach English) abroad?
You may be wondering what type of teaching job overseas you would qualify for or whether you can teach English without a TEFL certification.
Requirements for TEFL Jobs:
The answer to this is that you will require a Bachelor's degree (in any discipline) for most TEFL teaching jobs and, for many countries including China, you will also require TEFL certification. Don't worry about finding your way through the maze of accredited TEFL courses – TFA can advise you on the level of TEFL qualification that will be required (a 120-hour course is now the standard for most teaching abroad programs) and you can check out our own (accredited) TEFL courses at: http://www.tfa-academy.com/course.
What types of TEFL jobs are there and how do I know what will be the right job for me?
TEFL jobs abroad tend to vary based on the type of school (public school or private academy), the age of students (from kindergarten right up to adult teaching) and also the location. So choosing the best TEFL job for you will depend on your personal preference in these areas.
Public School or Private Academy
Public schools tend to have larger classes, so you could have 30-40 students in a class, compared to 10-15 in a private academy. You will, however, normally have a teaching assistant (native speaker) with you. The benefits of public schools for many TEFL teachers are that you have a regular Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm (type) working schedule, sometimes with the bonus of a meal or two per day provided. Private academies (also called training schools) tend to operate more flexible working hours, so you could be working afternoons and evenings (which can be great if you like mornings off or a later start) and your days off (generally two consecutive days) will probably not be over the weekend. There are pros and cons to each.
Teaching Young Children, Teens or Adults
The other main differentiator between various TEFL jobs abroad will be the age of the students you teach. A lot of private academies are set up for kindergarten/elementary age, so you could be teaching English to very young children, even as young as pre-school age. This of course, won't be sprung on you, as the age of students will be clear from the outset and part of the choice you will make. Some schools will have a range of age groups, from kindergarten to high school age, which provides variety for the teacher. There are also a lot of English teaching jobs available for the adult age group, so if you prefer teaching older learners, which can include teaching Business English, this would be the option for you.

Susan has a background in chiropractic massage and energy work.She is a Holy Fire, Karuna and Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki master practitioner. Her approach is to treat the whole body as a complete and unique energy system while combining the power of a deep tissue massage with a calming Swedish flow or the long slow glide of a relaxing and restorative Swedish massage.
Sarah F. graduated from the National Institute of Massotherapy in 2013. Her unique style integrates Western and Eastern modalities, fusing powerful deep tissue techniques with calming Swedish flow. She believes every body has the innate ability to heal itself. Sarah employs an intuitive approach to create the ideal environment for the body on her table to unwind on its own.
Sarah J. graduated from the New Mexico Academy of Healing Arts in 2007 with a diploma in massage therapy. The comprehensive 1,000 hour program included classes in Anatomy and Physiology, Medical Massage, Deep Tissue and Swedish Massage, and Prenatal Massage in addition to introductory training in Shiatsu, Tui Na, Ortho-bionomy and other bodywork modalities. Since graduating, Sarah has completed continuing education courses in cranio sacral therapy with master teacher Etienne Piersman in Santa Fe, NM as well as the Four Elements Hot Stone massage course with Lili Gill in Charlottesville, VA. She completed a training in Cleveland in winter 2016 focusing on releasing the psoas muscle - a major muscle often neglected in massage sessions that can be profoundly involved in patterns of chronic pain, muscle tension and poor posture in many clients.
While living and working in Charlottesville, VA Sarah became interested in holistic skin care. She found facial and body treatments to be an excellent compliment to massage therapy and completed the Esthetics program at the American Spirit Institute in Richmond, VA in 2013. She became certified in microdermabrasion and advanced peeling techniques (chemical peels) in Columbus, OH in 2016.
Ten years into her career as a massage therapist, Sarah remains passionate about helping people feel better, maintain well being, and access preventative care via massage and bodywork. She thoroughly enjoys providing facial services and talking with clients about skin care and how to address imbalances and specific skin care concerns.
Kearney graduated from National Institute of Massotherapy in 2007. She worked for Lakewood Massotherapy (2007-2013) and most recently Zen Metro Spa from 2009 until its recent closure in October 2017. She prides herself on the ability to treat each client according to their specific needs and customizes her massage to target the areas of concern. She has a strong backround in Deep Tissue and Relaxation massage, Medical massage, Neuromuscular and Trigger Point Therapy, Post-Isometric muscle release, Prenatal and Hot Stone Massage.
Most recently she became a Graston Technique Preferred Provider. This technique uses specially designed instruments to treat soft tissue injuries such as areas of chronic inflammation and scar tissue. The goal is to heal and rebuild healthy functioning tissue. The instruments are moved over the affected area and come into contact with the adhesions breaking up the scar tissue. In time, this process reduces the stuck fibers, restoring motion and eliminating the pain associated with the injury.
She is passionate about healing and would love to talk to you about how massage can be a solution for pain and chronic stress.
Nori is passionate about providing client-focused therapeutic massage, working with each client to tailor the massage session to their individual needs and preferences. Drawing from classic Swedish relaxation and deep tissue techniques as well as more advanced therapies such as joint capsule release, muscle energy technique, myofascial release, and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation, Nori provides uniquely soothing sessions that combine the stress-reducing benefits of relaxation massage with pain-relieving therapies that address your chronically overworked muscles and tension holding patterns as necessary.

It is our goal to produce community phone directories effectively and economically while ensuring accuracy.
We as a team are responsible for developing and maintaining a new contract database for each new Telco's respective business customers. We also identify new potential customers by developing sales leads from the directory coverage area. Advertising contracts are then produced for each sales representative. When the sales are made, each contract is updated for the New Year. Online reports are produced to assist and monitor the progress of the sales effort.
Meanwhile, we purchase outside phone utilities' listing data for the coverage areas. These listings are converted to Bookman's structured format for easy clean-up and flow. A complete database listing is also extracted from the Telco and converted to Bookman.
A white page galley is then produced for proofing and updating by the Telco. Once this is all formulated the white pages alpha phone listings are created. Then we proof – proof – and proof some more.

Snow Tha Product released her Good Nights & Bad Mornings 2: The Hangover mixtape in 2013, but since then we haven't heard all that much from the west coast rapper. This hopefully means that she's putting in work on her debut album, but she has managed to give us a freestyle here or there.
Most recently, we heard her rap over a G-Eazy instrumental for "Far Alone", and today, she's given us an entirely new track, titled "No Going Back".
Here we get some of Snow's signature double-time rapping, once again proving she's an artist to watch. Look out for more releases from her vey soon.
Quotable Lyrics:
I swear to God
All you hypebeasts tryin' me
Like I ain't have your favorite labels

Looking back at my year-long desire to find order in chaos, here's where things are today in Month Eight:
On Twitter:
I initially thought that I could find order by following everyone. This ultimately failed as people never tweet about one topic all the time. It was very hard to be productive when people tweeted about everything.
By unfollowing everyone and starting fresh, I can focus on the people who matter most to me right now. I follow less than half of one percent of those who follow me.
I also realize I don't need to follow someone to tweet with them; and people asking me to follow them so they can privately message me I politely ask to email me instead.
You can follow and tweet me here.
On Facebook:
Each of my friends is in a list; and aside from close family and close friends, I'm not following anybody. What this means is if we're friends on the site, either you're appearing in the news feed or you're not, depending how strongly you care about me.
If you're the type of person to call me, email me, or otherwise proactively want to see me off Facebook, then I'm seeing everything you post. But if you're not that type of person, we're friends but I'm not following you and I'll dip into your list from time to time. I maintain three primary lists: people who would be future constituents if I am elected in November, people who live in New England, and people who live elsewhere in the world. I also have a list for family; and another list for people I'm watching for different reasons.
Facebook used to be a place for me to share private things with people I knew well. It gradually turned into a place where privacy doesn't exist and I now share nearly-every post with the world. To this end, I recently began accepting friend requests from strangers.
You can friend me here.
On LinkedIn, Google+, Instagram, Pinterest, wherever…
My rules are gone. I follow some people because they look interesting; or because they sent me a connection request first. I am tossing Thom's doctrine that I wrote about in January. It doesn't hold value for me anymore to only connect with someone if I know the person. I don't know what "knowing a person" means anymore.
Social media is diluting.
When you consider some people share Facebook links on Twitter and others share Twitter links on Pinterest, each site is not its own ecosystem anymore. They ooze into each other.
To some, social media replaces blog commenting. If you have an account on a social account somewhere, why would you take time to write a comment here when you can click a button and share this blog post with your network? You know you prefer that.
I will keep blog comments open for the foreseeable future. But some posts, like this one, will be closed for comments; because I also know my reader and posts like this would rather be shared than commented.

In Memoriam: Ada Maria Isasi-Diaz
Drew mourns the passing, celebrates the rich legacy of a pioneering theologian
On May 13, Drew University lost a beloved colleague and teacher with the passing of Professor Emerita Ada Maria Isasi-Diaz. According to her sister Gloria, who posted to Ada Maria's blog, she slipped away into her eternal life with "no struggle, agony nor any signs of discomfort." She leaves behind an amazing legacy.
"Her identity as a liberationist theologian was shaped very early on in her Catholic upbringing in Cuba, where her deep concern for the poor and the oppressed was nourished," wrote Drew Theological School Dean Jeffrey Kuan in a message to the university community. "Her mother taught her the importance of la lucha (struggling) for one's beliefs without giving up. She took on her feminist identity in 1975 and soon led in the development of Mujerista Theology. In rejecting the word kingdom, she helped popularized the term kin-dom, because 'it is obviously a sexist word that presumes that God is male. Second, the concept of kingdom in our world today is both hierarchal and elitist.'"
More than just a theologian, she was active in the struggle of others. When the Our Lady Queen of Angels church was closed, she helped lead the protest vigils and Sunday services in the sidewalk of the church, where she preached regularly.
Dr. Isasi-Diaz joined Drew in 1991 as professor of ethics and theology. She retired in 2009. Kuan, Associate Dean Ginny Samuel and others are planning a fall Craig Chapel memorial service to celebrate her life and legacy.

Each year, Open Doors USA publishes its World Watch List to raise awareness of Christian persecution around the world and to encourage prayer and support for believers living in the 50 countries where persecution is most prevalent.
Many of our listeners inhabit regions where there are serious repercussions for turning to Christ, as 22 of The Tide heart language radio programs reach people living in four countries on this year's list.
In Nigeria, Christians suffer from violence perpetrated by Islamic militant groups. Nepal was not even ranked in last year's list, but now nearly all Christians there experience some form of persecution to the point that pastors and believers are hesitant to openly carry a Bible in public. Buddhism is seen as Bhutan's heritage, and Christians there experience tremendous pressure to conform to local religious practices or lose social benefits such as government-provided education and health care.
It is disturbing to see India continue its trend of climbing higher on the list, and is now being classified as having "extreme persecution," primarily because the government promotes Hinduism as the national identity of India and tolerates the activities of radical Hindu groups that use violence to eradicate other religions. This makes it very dangerous for our Indian partners who work to disciple the many listeners who, despite the risk, are responding to the Gospel message The Tide ministry airs there in eight languages.
The Good News Hour, our partner ministry in India, Bhutan and Nepal, has adapted by developing an expanding network of local pastors and trained village workers to follow up with listeners. To gain greater access into Hindu strongholds, Good News Hour has also significantly expanded the amount of compassion-type ministry activities and social work it offers, and now engages in adult literacy, child education, seed distribution, plantation and gardening, village cleaning and sanitation, medical camps and health awareness, hygiene and sports.
All this, provided in the name of Christ, reinforces and adds impact to the Gospel message people are hearing on the radio.
Jesus warned that it would not always be easy to follow Him, and that his disciples will face opposition, discrimination, arrest and other forms of oppression. Jesus also promised that the Holy Spirit will give strength to endure for those who remain faithful in all circumstances, and will enable us to shine for Him in dark situations.
Praise God for the commitment and tenacity of The Tide radio pastors and discipleship workers who faithfully persevere in sharing the Gospel. And please pray fervently for Christians and new believers in areas where violent opposition to their faith is often an everyday occurrence. Thank you for providing the prayer and financial support to strengthen and encourage them!

Picture a verdant field, surrounded by great shady trees,
Heraldic banners fluttering in the wind,
Knights in armour upon a field doing battle,
Ladies in embroidered gowns reclining in the shade,
Picnicing on splendid fare with fine beverages,
The marshals cry "Lay on" and the tournament begins…
Arts & Sciences
There are two main hands-on aspects of the SCA: Martial Activities and Arts & Sciences.
The Arts and Sciences add to the context of all we do, and help bring the recreated Middle Ages alive. For many in the SCA, A&S is about the wonderful period meals or feasts accompanied by delectable brews that reflect particular places and times prior to 1600 CE. For others it is about creating wonderful garb or clothing that reflects their persona (the person that they have chosen to be in period) ranging from a basic T-tunic through to elaborate clothing that would not have been out of place at the Court of Elizabeth I.
Other Arts & Sciences researched and recreated in the SCA include music, dancing, gardening, embroidery, weaving, creating period-style armour, equestrian activities (but no jousting, sorry), pottery, jewellery-making, calligraphy, and many more. Any part of Medieval life can be researched and (if practicable) recreated.
Getting Involved in Arts & Sciences
Those who excel in the Arts & Sciences are known as Laurels and those who are working on developing one or more areas of skill are apprenticed to Laurels. However, not everyone strives for that level of expertise for a whole variety of reasons. Choose the level that suits you and the time you have available.
Not sure where to begin? SCAdians are always happy to share their skills and knowledge, and at any 'big' event there will usually be A&S classes being held on a vast range of subjects. Even at smaller local events it's not uncommon for impromptu A&S skill-sharing sessions to crop up – if you see someone doing something that catches your interest, feel free to ask them about it, you may find yourself going home with a new skill. There are also a number of guilds within the Kingdom of Lochac, which you can join to connect with people interested in specific areas of interest.
Some of the skills that are encompassed by the Arts & Sciences are listed here. You can also find a great guide for SCA newcomers here.

You want music at your wedding, but for obvious reasons, you don't just want to hook up your favorite iPod mix. Hiring a DJ means your reception dance will go off without a hitch, and your Uncle Buck won't have to stand in as your emcee either. Meet with your DJ to decide on a playlist and the details. Your DJ can also provide the sound system and visual entertainment to go along with the tunes.
We asked a few Maui DJs for their insight on being the life of the wedding party:
Why should I hire a DJ?
A wedding DJ becomes a unique component of your wedding celebration because she is interacting directly with all of your family and friends for hours. You want to take the time to interview several DJs to really get a feel for their personality, style, professionalism, experience and overall vibe, to make sure that you are all a good match. If you're off-island, you should definitely have a phone interview or even a Skype call to meet your future DJ.
Budget is always an important factor in planning your wedding. But if you're only choosing a DJ because of their price, you might be disappointed because the motto of "you get what you pay for" could come back and haunt you. We've all been to weddings or events where we've felt sorry for the organizers, cringed at the music and wanted the cheesy DJ to stop yapping.
You want your wedding day to be the most magical day of your lives, so my advice is to take your time, enjoy the process and get to know your DJ ahead of time. A great wedding DJ knows that her job is to make the bride and groom shine on their special day and keep the party upbeat and flowing smoothly.

How do I shop for a DJ?
To find a personality and price that work for you, check WeddingWire.com (Martha Stewart's wedding network) to see DJs profiles and reviews. You can also ask other wedding vendors who they like to use. Be careful choosing just the cheapest DJ out there, because things can go wrong like the sound system doesn't work properly or they show up late or not at all. Also, check if they're insured to avoid nightmares. It's best to stick with the professional DJs that are well established and have many good reviews.

Am I limited to your music collection?
With today's technology, I'm so excited to buy and play any genre of music, according to each couple's preferences. In the old days of vinyl, I was limited by how many 50-pound record boxes I could lug to each gig. Now, the sky's the limit. I specialize in magical weddings and creative corporate events but I love celebrating life with people from all over the world by sharing incredible music from all genres and decades.

Is it okay to give you a Do Not Play list?
Always! I take pride in being a DJ that caters 100 percent to what the clients and the people at the event would like to hear. I take requests and always make sure I'm playing for everybody, not myself. Sometimes clients give me a Do Not Play list, which can avoid the songs or styles they do not like.

Can you provide other entertainment and visuals at my wedding?
Definitely. Couples are always looking for ways to make their reception unique and memorable. Adding custom video projections and artistic lighting is a fantastic way to create a wedding that will be talked about by friends and family for decades to come. I collaborate with a great company called Event Horizon Audiovisual Services to deliver stunning visuals and amazing lighting.
Because of my background with Valerie and the Vibe Tribe, I love to offer couples ways to enhance their celebrations by adding fire dancers, aerialists, belly dancers, stilt walkers and musicians. I partner with the best performers on the island to create the best wedding ever!
