It's Coming to You Now. Are you Up for the Challenge?
The biggest problem facing the human species today is a loss of self, and truly the biggest hurdle we have to overcome, lies in regaining a knowledge of that self. This may seem like a strange statement to make and a somewhat esoteric approach to dealing with social issues, however it remains a fact. A loss of self, and essentially a knowledge of who and what we are as individuals is the root cause of all of mankind's woes.
It must be clearly acknowledged that due to the training and indoctrination received at the hands of a highly detrimental and extremely controlled education system, the sad fact is that most modern people simply do not know who and what they are. And another extremely important issue, and a situation that has come about certainly by no mistake, is that a Government controlled education has very effectively instilled into people's minds, the erroneous belief that authority is real. Indeed an unquestionable respect for authority seems to be the main focus of modern education and it needs to be clearly understood that belief in the authority of another over you, can only result in a loss of self. It is precisely this loss of self-awareness via miseducation, has led to humankind's current predicament. This loss of self has caused people to place their trust, and simply hand power over their lives to figures of perceived 'authority', who are not in any way acting in their best interests. Most especially now as it would seem that, as we enter into 2016, western governments are openly revealing themselves to be fascist and totalitarian to the extreme - such as in the case of Australia, where forced vaccinations are now being introduced and the will of politicians is soon to be enforced upon the people with an iron fist - IF the Australian people continue to believe in the authority of others and CHOOSE to allow it.
As coercive and intimidating (and often downright brutal) as the tactics of Government and its agents may be in attempting to exercise control over people, the fact remains that respect for the authority of another over one's own living flesh is a choice that can only be made by the individual. One can always choose not to... It may seem a little dangerous and fearful to make that choice at first, but that is certainly no reason not to make it, especially when one considers the options - which is to hand control of your life to another. And the truth is, that when assessing the situation in the world today, it becomes apparent that such choices do indeed need to be made. They need to be made by each individual and they need to be made very soon. The time has now come for people to rediscover their true selves and to realize that it is only they, who have any authority over themselves. Someone, Government or otherwise claiming authority over you is simply someone else claiming a right of ownership over your body. Such a thing is slavery and is outlawed even under the Governments own legislation. Such understandings are taken for granted in a free and open society, yet the fact that such basic freedoms are now being slowly eroded away indicates that western society is no longer free, nor open. After all, if one does not own one's own flesh then what else is there to own?
The matter of forced vaccination by legislation is something that really does bring things down to the wire for people. And it's important to understand that the issue here is not one of whether you are pro or anti vaccine. That's not the point, the issue here is one of having the freedom to choose what is put into your body. Ultimately the real question comes down to one of ownership. Who owns your body? You or Government? If you are really disconnected enough to believe it is the Governments place to make such a decision, then perhaps you need to re-evaluate what government is exactly. Government is (well, at least it pertains to be) a group of ordinary people whom the populace elects into positions of management of their respective nations. These are people we employ to manage our infrastructure and economies in a responsible manner and in our best interests. If these employees are now presuming to have a right of ownership over the individual flesh and blood bodies of those who employ them, to the degree of claiming to have (by right of their own decree), the power to dictate what is injected into those bodies, then how is this in the interests of anyone but themselves? The concept of forced vaccinations is in fact one of the most severe breaches of human rights and abuse of office any Government could possibly implement. Indeed, such legislation breaks international law and Human Rights directives and also breaches Australian law to the point that the enacting of such heinous legislation serves to completely invalidate any legitimacy the Australian Government could ever presume to have. Indeed to claim the 'right' to enact such a law is to proclaim open dictatorship. Yet it will go ahead if the people fail to stand up and call it out for what it is. And again, people need to fully realize that this issue is not about whether you are for or against vaccines, it's about having the freedom to choose - and if people fail to address this issue then vaccines will not be the only choice they will be removed of. If public servants can convince people to give up a right of ownership over their own bodies, then they will likely be able to convince them to give up just about anything.
These types of initiatives are often tried in various countries when the political climate allows it, just to test the waters. If successful in one nation then the same methodology will be applied to other countries. If unsuccessful it will be repackaged and attempted again until it becomes "law" in whichever county the model works, and Australia is very much a test case in this regard. Gun control was successfully trialled in Australia first and it already has some of the most stringent border security, visa and screening requirements in the world - to the point of being ridiculous. These are all models that are intended to be extrapolated out to the rest of the world again, when the various political climates will allow it to be done with relative ease. This unprecedented claim of ownership and wilful attack against peoples very own flesh has, however, taken things to an entirely new level in Australia. Indeed if the battle for human freedom is to be fought and won at all, then it will be fought on this line. The question is, how to do so.
The problem most face with such issues lies in the direction of their focal point and the pathway they choose, inasmuch as most people tend to direct their focus and any subsequent action towards Government, but there is a higher harmonic which lies in a more spiritual approach. And before you go dismissing any spiritual understandings here, remember, that when married together correctly, and in balance, a spiritual understanding applied to the physical can create a virtually unstoppable force. And any man or woman who is prepared to walk the path of the warrior is able to harness and use this force. And what is the path of the Warrior? It is the path with a heart, the path of integrity. It is the path taken by those who fully know who and what they are.
In addressing situations such as forced vaccination, since it is essentially an attack against one's own flesh, it becomes necessary for people to remember this simple fact. To fully know and stand in who and what they are, to remember they are each a living being housing an eternal soul and now, more than ever, to stand in their flesh and to own it. Remember, such legislation as forced vaccination comes down to a claim of ownership by one over the living flesh of another; you! Therefore the matter cannot be dealt with by a confrontation with Government. Government is a fiction, it is an idea that exists in the ether and no remedy will be found by doing battle with a cloud, however, within the mechanism of Government, there exists a living man or woman, perhaps several of them, who put their wet ink signature on paper and decreed mandatory vaccination to be "law". By signing such a decree into "law" in such terms as which contravene natural law, such a man or woman has thereby claimed a right of ownership over your living flesh and it is up to you, the individual, to either allow it by your choice of silence and thus consent to their actions, or to stand up and demand that individual to be called to account to provide proof of their claim of ownership of your flesh. Either that or to face charges for slavery, even under their own legislation. But the choice is yours alone to call and such a thing will not happen at all until people remember who and what they are. It will not happen until people stop waiting for salvation from an external source as they have been so well trained to do. It will only happen when people are prepared to stand in the power of owning their own flesh. It is your body, the flesh, blood and sinew are owned and controlled by you alone. Know your flesh, stand in it, own it and speak your truth. And if you are ever 'required' to appear in court, ask if there are two languages being spoken in the room today... ask for your accusers to show you a copy of the contract that exists between you and their trading company ("Nation") and ask for your accuser to provide proof of their claim of ownership over your flesh.
The stark reality is that the future of mankind, and whether that future will be one of freedom or slavery now rests upon the edge of a knife and the choice lies only with the people. It has always laid with the people only, they have until now, been too afraid to make that choice. Yet the decision to choose freedom lays only with the people. No one can save mankind until the people decide to save themselves. It will happen when people wake up to the reality that Government is a meme. It is a cloud, an idea, a fiction we made up. But within its mechanism are people. A criminal elite, an Kakistocracy, all of whom get away with what they do, simply due to the fact that people believe Government is real. And so this criminal elite is able to conceal themselves behind that facade. Most have forgotten Government is made up of people. They have forgotten that all within our society are just people, regardless of their station. All are just people and all have equal value, equal worth and equal potential - including themselves. Most have forgotten this simple truth and so they have forgotten the power of their own beings. But now these certain individuals, these politicians, via the mechanism of Government and peoples belief that the system, and thus authority over their individual sovereign flesh and blood beings is real, are moving to impose their will upon every man woman and child on Earth.
And so the time has now come for people to remember their power, to exercise their will and to now make the choice to be free. Indeed the future of this species depends on it.

Red (Pinot Noir): this wine has a clean, straightforward colour (purple or bright ruby) sometimes tending towards dark garnet-red. Small red (strawberry, gooseberry) and black (blackcurrant, blueberry) fruit aromas come well to the fore, with occasional hints of cherry and kernel, and sometimes animal and mushroom notes. It is mouth-filling, firm in texture, and can be a touch austere in early youth. It has no lack of oomph, however, and its roundness overcomes any jagged edges - its acidity and tannins work well together. A tiny amount of rosé/clairet is produced, also from the Pinot Noir grape.
White (Chardonnay): it boasts a clear complexion with grey-gold highlights.
Its aromas are redolent of white flowers (hawthorn, honeysuckle), dried fruits over notes of lemon and sometimes anise, with a suggestion of warm croissants and honey. In the mouth it is fleshy, well turned-out and thoroughly sure of itself. It has a lively, no-nonsense attack with just the rightamount of delicacy.
Reds: their straightforwardness and their delicate tannins render them a bit closed-off in their youth, but this stiffness makes them an indispensable adjunct to grilled meats or meats in sauce, which cope perfectly with their mellowness. They suit cheeses with pronounced personalities such as Coulommiers, Port-Salut or Époisses.
Serving temperature: 15 to 18°C.
Whites: their straightforwardness, vivacity, and delicate citrussy aromas make them a must with fish tarts, cooked seafood, and marinated or grilled vegetables. As a pre-dinner drink they prove a fine partner to black olives.
They are likewise well-suited to mild soft cheeses and goat cheeses.
Serving temperature: 12 to 13°C.
Adding a more precise indication of geographical origin to the region-wide appellation Bourgogne can help wine lovers in making their choices. The appellation Bourgogne Côte Chalonnaise dates from 1990 and recognises the distinct personality of wines from the 44 communes in the northern part of the department of Saône-et-Loire, an area some 40 km long and between 5 and 8 km in width. These wines have been justly valued since the time of the Bishop Gregory of Tours (6th century AD) in and around the bustling port of Chalon-sur- Saône, an important market centre on an affluent of the Rhône River.
Lying between the valleys of the Dheune and Grosne and open towards the South, the Côte Chalonnaise offers a less rugged landscape than those of the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits to the North. These gentle hills are outcrops of the Massif Central thrown up by the creation of the rift valley known as the Bresse Trench. In the North, limestone forms the East-facing slopes and there are outcrops of lias and trias formations (Saint-Denis, Jambles, Moroges). South of the granitic block formation at Bissey, the hillsides slope either to the East or the West until they reach the hills of the Mâconnais. The soils below the Bajocian limestone corniche are marly, with sands and shaly or flinty clays at the foot of the slopes where there are also some gravel outcrops. Altitudes vary from 250 to 350 metres.

Fox Searchlight has released the first clip from Wes Anderson's new stop-motion film "Isle of Dogs."
In the footage, a bag of rotting food is dropped off on Trash Island, which catches the attention of two rival packs of dogs. The pups stare each other down menacingly and slowly approach each other in a style reminiscent of the standoffs in Westerns. Before they actually fight, one of the dogs, Rex (voiced by Edward Norton), suggests that they open the bag first to ensure that its contents are really worth the trouble of a brawl. Upon discovering that it contains mostly rotting fruits and vegetables, one of the dogs, Bryan Cranston's Chief, decrees that the garbage is valuable and they begin to attack, resulting in one dog losing an ear.
"Get out of here and don't come back," Cranston's Chief says, Walter White-like, to the losing group.
"Isle of Dogs" is Anderson's second fully animated stop-motion film after "Fantastic Mr. Fox" in 2009 and tells the story of a 12-year-old boy who goes in search of his beloved dog after the corrupt mayor decrees that all canines be sent to live on Trash Island due to a dog flu. The film also stars Greta Gerwig, Jeff Goldblum, Scarlett Johansson, Bill Murray, Frances McDormand, and Tilda Swinton.
"Isle of Dogs" is set to open the Berlin Film Festival and close the South by Southwest Film Festival. It will be released in theaters on March 23.

Maybe you discovered that you left some of your keys to your vacation destination. Thousands of people each year lock themselves out of the vehicles and homes and need someone to come and help them get back in. Many newer cars and trucks are almost impossible to break into without smashing a window, making it difficult for owners to gain entry on their own.
For whatever the reason, you still need to find a qualified, reliable locksmith. These are people that have access to your homes, vehicles, and businesses. Whether it is unlocking your doors when you're locked out or fixing up whole alarm security systems. You don't want to come home one day and see your house robbed, only to find out later that is was that local locksmith Services you hired.
One of the tips you can use is to ask family, friends, and even your neighbours and see who they may have hired. If you don't know anyone who may have used any services lately, then the next thing to do is check with business rating organizations. Angie's List, Consumer Reports, your local Chamber of Commerce, and even the Better Business Bureau can be a wealth of information.
When you are looking for reliable local locksmith services, there are some things you should be asking each company. Before going into what should be asked, it is important to note that a reputable company is more than pleased to answer any questions you may have. They realise that you are trying to be a smart consumer, and will always be open, friendly and honest. If you find that a company is not forthcoming, doesn't want to answer even the simplest questions, you should hang up the phone.
First are basic questions like how long they have been in business at their location, what kinds of experience do they have and are they accredited. Do they have a business license, are they bonded, how much insurance do they have? You need to know that if there are any damages to your home or vehicle, they have the insurance to back this up. Being bonded means that they and their employees have recorded information down at the local police department and have no criminal record.
Ask them if they are part of the Associated Locksmiths. These organizations keep their members informed of any kinds of related updates and require regular re-certifications. All members must pass certain standards, and even make them pass an accredited skills test to join. Always get references and check them carefully. Make sure that when you have a job done, that you get all the keys, and that the locks don't accept a master key.

University Senate Proposed:
President Lee Bollinger called the Senate to order shortly after in 107 William and June Warren Hall. Fifty-three of 98 senators were present during the meeting.
Adoption of the minutes and agenda: The minutes of October 26 and the agenda were adopted as proposed.
Presidents report: The Manhattanville rezoning process was at a
critical stage, having now reached the City Planning Commission, after going
through Community Board 9 and the
The president mentioned the continuing hunger strike on South Lawn. He said a team of faculty and administrators led by Columbia College Dean Austin Quigley, Arts and Sciences Vice President Nicholas Dirks, and Provost Alan Brinkley, and including health workers, was trying to resolve the matter. The president said he could say no more at this point.
Sen. Eric Wang (Stu., CC) said the strikers demand that
The president said it would be wise for him not to comment
on any of the demands or responses, except to say that there are many forums,
internal and external, for discussing Manhattanville, including the Senate. At the same time, decisions have been made and
will continue to be made. Manhattanville is not an issue that
The president said the answer depends on the particular topic under discussion. The Core Curriculum, for example, is fundamentally a College and A&S issue, and not really under Senate purview. Manhattanville, on the other hand, is a more appropriate concern of the Senate, which has been and will remain actively involved in deliberations about expansion plan that will take decades. The president invited Provost Brinkley to comment.
The provost said the Senate was created to provide the
Sen. Sharyn OHalloran (Ten., SIPA) said issues raised at the October plenary in a student caucus report about the universitys responses to recent bias incidents were now being addressed in a series of meetings of External Relations, which she chairs. The result will be a report identifying best practices, and making some recommendations. This is more appropriate work for the Senate than dealing with particulars of the curriculum, she said.
Sen. Johnson saw the External Relations initiative as an important opportunity for the Senate. He expressed a wish to see major issues addressed through regular channels, and not through tactics like hunger strikes. He was troubled by the points some students have made that the only way to accomplish change is through drastic forms of protest.
Sen. Wang said important issues should be brought to elected representatives, whether theyre students or faculty. He said going directly to the administration, as recent protests have, has the effect of sidelining elected representatives and regular channels of internal governance, as well as obscuring other issues that matter to Senate constituencies.
Sen. OHalloran called for earlier communication between elected representatives and other student groups. Otherwise, the elected representatives will hear about important issues only when theres a protesttoo late for them to do their job effectively. If the Student Affairs Committee can get involved early enough, it can do everything in its capacity to facilitate discussion between students and administrators.
Sen. Sumeet Shah (Stu., SEAS) stressed the importance of the health and safety of the students. Spectator had reported that day that Health Services had declared two of the strikers to be in serious condition, and they subsequently pulled out of the hunger strike. Sen. Shah asked the president to elaborate on efforts to monitor the strikers health.
The president said the health of the strikers was the paramount concern of all administrators.
The provost added that physicians both from Columbia Health Services and St. Lukes Hospital had been checking on the students at least twice a day since the beginning of the strike. One student had left the protest because of health problems. Two other students were exhibiting signs of serious health problems the day before and were treated.
Sen. Tiffany Davis (Stu., CC) said the strikers demands imply a condition of institutional negligence about the issues in this strike. The Senates role, in this as in other serious issues that have led to protests, has been mainly reactive rather than proactive. She said the strikers are looking for institutional mechanisms to make sure the university is accountable for longstanding promises. This is only one of a number of student complaints in search of a mechanism for solution, she said. Another involves the need for a procedure for reporting bias incidents. Institutional mechanisms are needed to address such issues before protests arise. But when protests do occur, there should be a set procedure for senators to respond. At present student deliberations follow no particular procedure, with senators and student councils sometimes involved in different discussions.
Sen. Johnson said the Senate must do a better of job of communicating with its consituencies, specially students, to give them a reason to bring important issues to the Senate, and to appreciate the Senate for what it can and should be.
Executive Committee
chairs report: Co-chair Paul Duby
(Ten., SEAS) said he, along with co-chair Sharyn OHalloran and the staff
member, had met with University Secretary
In reference to the previous discussion, Sen. Duby said there are Senate mechanisms to enable almost any constituency to bring up issues. All issues must go through the Executive Committee but, in his recent experience, all eventually reach the Senate floor, though there can be delays. In some cases student initiatives have led to Senate actions. But he did not think the Senate could usefully get involved in a crisis like the present strike, which requires rapid action by a small group of people. But he said that it should be possible for student or faculty senators to be involved in some of the discussions. He suggested approaching the provost about this.
Sen. Duby said that on November 9 the Executive Committee had discussed the hunger strike, with attention to the health of the strikers. The committee had the same information that the president and provost had just provided.
Sen. Duby said the committee was still working to set up the Committee on Rules of University Conduct. The process was slow, but it was worth the trouble to find the right people.
Sens. Duby and OHalloran had met with Housing Policy on
November 7 to discuss that committees resolution to limit rent increases in

Sen. OHalloran said a Senate resolution is not needed to fix this problem. She was polling departmental administrators to learn all the problems that have arisen and working with the provosts office to make sure the appropriate categories are restored. She said the problem will be addressed as quickly as possible.
In response to a question, Sen. OHalloran said there were previously 34 categories. She planned to work with Pearl Spiro, who handles all titles for the provosts office, and with the right people in Security and in Information Technology to make sure everyone has the right identity.
Sen. Daniel Savin (Research Officers), who has regularly raised questions about the status of research officers, asked what new titles were contemplated for officers. To laughter, President Bollinger asked Sen. Savin the motive for his question.
Sen. OHalloran said it was clear that two categories were

Our Mission
To deliver heartfelt, compassionate care which positively impacts our clients, their families and our community
What We Do
Companion Extraordinaire provides personal home care services in the comfort of our client's home. We can also deliver these services to clients who reside in an assisted living community, independent living setting or in a nursing and rehabilitation center
If you or a loved one needs an hour of additional care or 24-hour care, Companion Extraordinaire is here to provide the assistance you need.
As a full-service home care provider, we can provide a care program that is personalized to meet your needs. From one hour to 24-hour care, we deliver the help you need.
For our clients who prefer concierge services in addition to care, we offer the Boutique Care Program
Our Services
Boutique Care

Personal Care
Enhancing clients' quality and dignity of life
Supportive Care

Skilled Nursing
Providing care for clients recovering from an injury
Why Choose Home Care?
One-on-one care in the privacy of your own home is the best reason to choose home care over a care facility.
Additionally, it is impossible to see germs, but they are all around us. In a care facility, these germs can spread quickly and cause devastating infections like:
- Urinary Tract Infections (UTI)
- Colds
- Pneumonia
- C Diff
Elderly patients and others at high risk have been known to suffer serious and fatal infections that could have been prevented.
Companion Extraordinaire spends hours and hours training our care providers to use the safest possible precautions to keep our clients safe and comfortable.
Why Choose Companion Extraordinaire?
Our Owner and Founder
Dawn Beninghove
Founder, Chief Operating Officer, Registered Nurse, Certified Case Manager, Certified Rehabilitation Professional, Faith Community Nurse, National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners, Certified Senior Advisor
The creation of Companion Extraordinaire has truly been a labor of love. It grew out of care for my father during his struggle with Parkinson's disease.
Over the past 36 years, I have gravitated from being a staff nurse to the Administration of Health Care as a Registered Nurse. I obtained my National Certification in Case Management and specialized in patients with brain injuries and Dementia.
In addition, I have completed a Ministerial Internship Program, a faith community Nurse certification from Bon Secours, and became a certified Senior Advisor. Being able to combine all of these skills offers a holistic approach to our clients care supporting their body mind, and soul.

Support for United Nations talks on biodiversity will be marked in Britain by the biggest nationwide peal of bells since celebrations to mark the eve of the third millennium, organizers say.
"Ringing the church bells is a great way for the wider community to be reminded and to celebrate the beauty of creation," said Jill Hopkinson, the Church of England's national rural officer, in an August 10 statement.
The denomination is urging cathedrals and several thousand parish churches to ring their bells to mark the talks at the U.N. general assembly on Sept. 22 in New York that will address the international failure to meet targets on species conservation.
The United Nations has declared 2010 to be International Biodiversity Year to draw attention to the failure to meet targets to stop the global loss of biodiversity by 2010, despite the U.N. Convention on Biological Diversity, which entered into force in 1993.
"As Christians we believe it is important to care for God's creation and our natural world is suffering because of our actions," David Shreeve, the church's national environmental adviser, said in a statement.
"Many of our estimated 10,000 churchyards are full with often rare biodiversity and others in towns and cities support fewer, but equally important wildlife. The church is providing protected havens right on our own doorstep," he said.
A similar initiative involving the worldwide ringing of church bells took place in December to mark U.N. climate change talks in Copenhagen.
In October, following the U.N. biodiversity meeting, the 193 heads of state who are signatories to the convention will meet in Nagoya in Japan. The secretariat of the convention is encouraging the ringing of bells all over the world as an urgent appeal ahead of this meeting to rouse the world to take action to stop the loss of species.
Bell ringers will be reminded through blogs and Twitter messages to peal their bells between 12 noon and 2 p.m. on Sept. 22.
The initiative is linked to the MEMO project, which the Church of England is also supporting, to erect a stone sculpture on the Isle of Portland in southern England featuring a bell and carved images of threatened species. The great bell will be tolled whenever a species is declared extinct.

A blog for Milwaukee-area residents
who garden or value food grown close to home
A community-based project involving an intensive, year-round rooftop garden and greenhouse to teach urban sustainable agriculture in Milwaukee's Riverwest neighborhood has received two grants to help it move forward.
The "Growing Spaces" Project received a $141,000 grant from the Lowe's Charitable and Educational Foundation, as well as $30,000 from the Helen Bader Foundation, to build an urban, agricultural training space and green garage. The grants will support a partnership between Growing Power, Inc., Bradley Tech Construction Academy, Inc., and the Lynde & Harry Bradley Technology & Trade School to provide educational opportunities for future green-collar workers and a community-based training site for urban sustainable agriculture.
Growing Power staff will provide training for Bradley Tech students in year-round sustainable food production and will provide training opportunities for community members once the green garage is complete. The food produced by students will stay in the local area and be shared among neighbors and food pantries in the Riverwest community.
Growing Spaces is the first project of its kind in the United States, according to Growing Power. Bradley Tech students are currently constructing a green building from start to finish, made completely from green construction materials and technology. The project began in July, and its construction is approximately 40 percent completed.
"We hope the Growing Spaces training project serves as a model to inspire our community to grow its own food," said Growing Power CEO Will Allen.

City dwellers in Madison can keep backyard egg layers, but local residents do it on the sly.
Should city or suburban residents be allowed to keep chickens for eggs in their backyard?

Mobile Paper Shredding, Orange County – Offsite Security
Mobile paper shredding in Orange County is a growing business due to the increasing need for corporate security as well as budget constraints. If you run a business anywhere in the state of California you should take a look at the companies that offer mobile [paper shredding in Orange County for the secure destruction of your sensitive material.
How does Mobile paper shredding in Orange County work?
It's much simpler and more cost effective than having paper shredders on your business premises. A secure truck from one of the companies that offer mobile paper shredding in Orange County will come to your offices. The trucks have paper shredders on board and all of your sensitive material can be shredded in a matter of minutes.
The security of your material is never compromised when you use one of the companies that provide mobile paper shredding in Orange County.

Everything is sealed all of the way down the shredding chain.

There are a number of different shredding solutions that can be discussed when you are considering offsite destruction of sensitive material and you need to choose a company who is knowledgeable about the legal issues surrounding shredding.
There are shredding companies who will charge you a monthly fee for their services but you should look at companies offering mobile paper shredding in Orange County that will charge you according to the amount of material that you shred. You don't always have a huge amount of paperwork to shred, so why should you pay for a service if you're not using it. Some professional mobile shredders have technology that will measure what you need to shred and then charge you accordingly. It's just another way that you can save money as well as time in this small but significant part of your business.

text: Development of the hotel industry in Sub-Saharan Africa has suffered during the last few years due to the impact of the global economic crisis of 2008/2009, political instability in some countries like Nigeria and Kenya where the threat of terrorism has curtailed the inflow of foreign tourists, the high cost of development, and previously restrictive visa requirements in South Africa. However trends in 2016, which have shown 30% year-on-year growth for planned rooms, strongly suggest that the industry is poised for a rebound. According to STR Global - a research firm that provides market data on the industry - average daily room rates (ADR) in the region through August 2016 were up 8.6% to $103.0 and revenue per available room (RevPAR) was up 4% to $56.00. Consequently, there is a strong case for optimism in the sector given the fact that the industry is under-supplied (some countries have fewer than 500 branded rooms) and anticipated growth of business travel, tourism and the middle class is strong. And, according to PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PwC) 2016-2020 Hospitality Outlook which covers South Africa, Nigeria, Mauritius, Kenya, and Tanzania, these markets combined are poised to grow at a compound annual rate of 8.6% between 2015 and 2020. Consequently, ECM3D is very optimistic about this sector.

text: kayut 0 Posted May 28, 2018 Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 (edited) Hey, There are 3 different ways to create a new object: let myObject = {}; var myObject = { name: "Engage", days: 30 } var myObject = new Object(); Now my question is about the 2 different ways of instantiating a new object. You can either use an existing object as prototype of your new object, like this: var person = { name: "David", age: 20, }; // Create theDude object and use person object as its prototype var theDude = Object.create(person); Or you can use a Constructor function to create your new object like this: function Person (name) { this.name = name; this.age = 20; this.getInfo = function getInfo() { return this.name + ' is ' + this.age + ' years old.'; }; } // Instantiating a new object using the new keyword and a constructor function var theDude = new Person("David"); My question is: What is the difference between the last 2 methods of instantiating a new object? Which method is more recommended? In the real world, which one is used more? Thanks Edited May 28, 2018 by kayut Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Dollis Valley Estate lies to the north of the borough on the outskirts of Chipping Barnet near High Barnet, the last station on the Northern Line. The estate is on a south facing slope within an area of traditional suburban housing with excellent views across the adjacent green belt, and designated as both a Countryside Conservation area and Heritage Land.
The estate was built in the late 1960s and early 1970s and comprises of two and three storey houses and five storey blocks of flats and maisonettes and it suffers from many of the problems associated with post-war estates. The regeneration of Dollis Valley will see the creation of a new sustainable neighourbood with mixed tenure housing and improved transport links
The Proposed Development
In November 2011, the Council selected its preferred developer partners Countryside Properties UK and London & Quadrant consortium to regenerate the Dollis Valley Estate. Countryside Properties UK and London & Quadrant consortium has developed detailed regeneration proposals for Dollis Valley . These proposals include replacing the existing 436 flats and masionettes with a mixed tenure high quality development of up to 616 new homes. This new development will consist of affordable homes for social rent, shared equity and homes for sale on the open market.
The proposals aim to transform Dollis Valley into a vibrant neighbourhood with a distinctive character, whilst respecting the suburban location of the site. The Dollis Valley regeneration also seeks to reconnect the site with the surrounding area and local amenities.
Countryside Properties UK and London & Quadrant plan to submit their planning application in early autumn 2012, and they will be developing their application in consultation with the residents and the Council. A series of exhibitions and consultation events will be scheduled over the next 8 months.
Management of the proposed development
The proposed development is governed by a Principal Development Agreement (PDA) which the Council will enter into with Countryside Properties UK and London & Quadrant to deliver the affordable and private housing element of the development, as well as a new community facility.
- The Council will be responsible, with London & Quadrant, for managing the transfer of existing tenants from Barnet Homes, the Council's Arms Length Management Organisation, to the new affordable homes on Dollis Valley. London & Quadrant will be responsible for the management of all new affordable housing developed on the site.
- Countryside Properties UK and London & Quadrant will agree a management plan for the entire estate with the Council.

Reverse Mortgages Get No Respect
Bob and Fran Ciaccia could not be happier with their reverse mortgage, which unlocked some of the equity in the house they purchased in 1966 for $12,500.
Reverse mortgages are federally insured loans available to U.S. homeowners over age 62. The loan is made against the equity in the house, and the principle, plus interest and some federal insurance fees, are not repaid until the homeowners or their children sell the house.
"I cannot find a downside," Fran Ciaccia, a retired high school cafeteria cook from Levittown, Pennsylvania, said in an interview. "We have told so many people about it."
Although the Ciaccias may be big fans, reverse mortgages are unpopular, despite historically low interest rates that make them a good deal for retirees right now. AARP has estimated that only 1 percent of older Americans use them.
In 2012, the average loan size was $158,228, and 54,676 Americans got one. That is less than half the loans made in the peak year, 2009, according to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, which insures and sets standards for reverse mortgages.
Contributing to the drop in sales were a housing market bust that depleted millions of Americans' home equity, as well as less generous federal standards for determining loan size, and bad publicity surrounding some problem loans. AARP in a 2007 report cited surveys showing that some seniors don't "trust" them, or are unwilling to pay the fees involved. A lack of consumer awareness does not seem to explain the lower sales – 70 percent of those AARP surveyed said they knew about them.
But home equity is often the largest asset that older Americans have, and reverse mortgages, done right, can bring in much-needed income for retirees, who use the money for medical bills or to improve their lives or even pay off their mortgage. In 2010, the typical older homeowner had $83,000 in equity. The Ciaccias had more than that – about $220,000.
In 2005, the working-class couple cashed in. Their $120,000 loan bought them peace of mind and a $24,000 Shasta recreational vehicle, which they've taken camping all over Pennsylvania. The rest was made available in a bank line of credit.
"You know the money's there if you run into a problem," said Bob Ciaccia, who retired in May after 25 years as a university locksmith.
Like many older homeowners, the Ciaccias were concerned about using up their home equity. So the couple discussed the idea of a reverse mortgage with their three children. "You know what?" Mrs. Ciaccia said. "They don't need our money."
Perhaps if more parents asked, they would get the same answer.

Gov. Schwarzenegger and the legislative leaders have been meeting regularly since the budget impasse began. During Thursday's closed-door meeting, it finally looked as if they were close to an agreement on solving the $19 billion deficit that plagues the state.
But in Atwater Village Thursday night voters expressed frustration with what they see as the continuing inability of state government to take action.
"I'm disgusted by everybody in Sacramento. They're just out for themselves," said Esteban Cota.
A state without a budget is a state that cannot pay its bills, and it's brought some stark realities home to the legislators and the state residents who depend on their decisions.
Spokesmen for all the legislative leaders have confirmed that they have what they are calling the "framework of an agreement" to solve the deficit and get a budget passed.
"The governor and Legislative leaders will work through the details over the weekend, and hope to come to a final agreement when they reconvene Monday," Schwarzenegger press secretary Aaron McLear said in a statement. Neither the governor's spokesman nor legislative leaders so far are releasing any details, or what they define as a "framework." However, Assembly Speaker John Perez of Los Angeles calls it significant progress.
They've been meeting in Schwarzenegger's private Santa Monica office because the governor has been feeling ill.
Legislative leaders are expected to take the budget proposal back to their respective legislative caucuses for review. A full legislature vote on the budget proposal may come in the next few days.

Ozswoosh' school based program athletes and private Rookies program athletes came together recently to compete in a friendly game against each other to cap off a year of basketball development.
The Rookies athletes dominated most of the play, yet the school program athletes demonstrated signs of brilliance with many showing much improved dexterity, speed and ball control as compared to the friendly hosted mid year.
Head Coach Craig Rowe said the group had improved across the board and this friendly was an opportunity for athletes to come together and meet like minded students of the game.
"The kids are always keen for these friendlies (and tournaments)," Rowe said.
"I love watching the athletes improve over time and trying new things to achieve new goals.
"I was pleased when Rookies athletes asked to mix the teams up at the end of the third quarter and to make the game fairer."
Rowe said this demonstrated the teams were embracing the character, fairness and standards the program espoused.
"Our participants have bought in to the fact that winning is a process and they understand Ozswoosh is more about development and improving as a group, as opposed to winning at this stage of their basketball careers."
Ozswoosh expanded into several local schools in 2018 and has garnered more interest from other schools in the region who are looking to come on board in 2019.
Schools who have employed the services of Coach Craig Rowe in 2018 have all reaffirmed their commitment to have Ozswoosh remain involved with their students in 2019.
Rowe expected to be a selector again for the 2019 Sunshine Coasts South Districts regional team.
Rowe said he was happy with the progress Ozswoosh has made over the course of the last 12 months, particularly around making more connections with schools.

Inguinal Hernia Repair With 5 Yoga Moves. Could It be This Easy?
Over the past couple months I have been seriously considering just getting hernia surgery since I haven't had any luck with my natural inguinal hernia repair. I've become annoyed with always having to think about the hernia, and having to wear a hernia belt every day to manage it. Although my annoyance could be coming from an old back injury that I've been dealing with for years. It seems that every time I get going with a certain exercise routine and feeling like I might be getting close to being able to heal this sucker up, I end up hurting my back. It gets hurt to the point where all I can do is stretch and lay flat on my back to relieve the pain.
I've been dealing with compressed disks in my back since I was about 18 years old. From what I was told, it is from a genetic defect in my spine (my younger brother has the exact same problem). The first time I hurt it I was snowboarding. I went over a ramp, ollied off the top and felt it go. It was so out of place that my torso was off to the side of my body, and I was in extreme pain. If you looked at me straight on, my hips would be off to the right, and my shoulders would be off to the left. For about two weeks all I could do was lay on my back on the floor in riving pain. It was brutal.
Since then I have learned to live with it, and have been able to manage it pretty well for over 20 years now. I will go months with my back feeling great, with the pain being about at a level 2, feeling like I am getting in really good shape, then bam, it'll start hurting again. Back to level 9 type pain. All it takes is a mistimed step into a little pothole, or twisting a little too much.
Once it happens, I feel like every time I move I am going to break in half. It's pretty awesome (sarcasm). It doesn't get to the point like it did when I was younger, where I can't stand straight, but still painful enough to restrict a lot of movement. I look like an old man when I get up out of a chair because it takes me a minute to stand up straight.
This is what I've been dealing with since I made my last post. A little while after I fixed the pain in my shoulder I started feeling really good and flexible, then…….. my back starts up. So I started doing yoga about a month ago. Since yoga is all about elongating muscles, building core strength and getting in touch with your body, I figured it would probably be great for me. I've been feeling really good except for the forward fold, and upward dog poses which are pictured here:
I could barely get past a flat back position at first trying to do the forward fold, but within a fews weeks I was able to touch my finger tips to the floor. The upward facing dog, I cannot do at all, so I have to skip that part of the practice because it causes too much pain.
During this whole time that I was supposed to be attempting a "natural inguinal hernia repair" I have been trying to work through all this other pain in my body that is more acute. Although it's annoying, I can manage my hernia daily without pain, but these other things that have been happening are causing too much daily pain to just work around. So I started looking for yoga moves that would be beneficial for someone with a hernia and found a website that had a bunch of yoga exercises that were supposed to be good for a hernia. I originally had the link listed here, but it has since been changed, and I can't find the page any longer, but the videos are still up on youtube, and listed below.
It takes you through a few different yoga exercises that seem way too simple to have any affect, but I'm going to mix them in with my daily yoga practice and see what happens. After all, I'm treating this as an experiment anyway, so no harm in trying!
There is a breathing exercise that you can do throughout the day wether you're at your desk, watching TV, or whatever, and goes like this:
Pull in your Abdomen (for Inguinal) Hold for 3 Seconds, release slowly. Repeat this 10 times. Do it once every hour throughout the day. Avoid it for 2 hours after meals. Increase holding duration to 5-7 seconds when you are comfortable.
Then there are some videos showing the yoga asanas (I know they are a little cheesy):
Inguinal Hernia Repair With Five Yoga Moves
- Pavanmuktasana
- Uddiyan in sabasana
- Utthan padasana hands on hernia
- Sahaj agnisar
- Sabasana
Could it really be that easy? I don't know but I'm going to try it and see. I'm going to mix these in with my daily yoga practice. Hopefully I can keep my back and everything else healthy, and continue working on this long enough to see some sort of results.
For now I'm still opting out of surgery, even though some days I am just over it. I think I have to remain patient and work through all the bullshit that my body throws at me so that I can get to a point where I can really focus on trying to come up with a truly natural inguinal hernia repair.
I'll let you know what happens!

Rocky Ros Muc review: Hard-hitting story of a Connemara contender
Michael Fanning's Irish-language documentary about boxer Sean Mannion packs a punch
Film Title: Rocky Ros Muc
Director: Michael Fanning
Starring: Sean O'Mainnin, Ronan Mac Con Iomaire, Marty Walsh, Pat Nee, John 'Red' Shea, Micky Ward
Genre: Documentary
Running Time: 93 min
He could have been a contender. Even Angelo Dundee, Muhammad Ali's cornerman, thought so: "If I had had that guy at 20," said the legendary trainer of Connemara pugilist Sean Mannion.
In October 1984, as Mannion was preparing to fight Jamaican Mike McCallum at Madison Square Garden for the world super welterweight title, a corporate sponsor came courting.
The Irish contender could have $5,000 if he sported their logo on his waistband. "I said I couldn't," recalls Mannion. "I would wear it at the back if he wanted. But I couldn't change the front because that had 'Ros Muc' on it."
Undaunted, the wannabe sponsor came back with a better offer. And another. And another. At the $25,000 mark, the boxer explained that he'd even turn down a million. Perplexed, they wondered what Ros Muc manufactured to give them such an edge. "Human beings," said Mannion.
Michael Fanning's Irish-language documentary – one of the record 170 documentary features vying for the 2018 Oscar – opens with this anecdote, as a way of introducing its uncompromising subject. He's "principled", as Mannion's biographer Rónán Mac Con Iomaire has it.
He needed to be. Mannion, a native of the small village of Ros Muc in Galway, emigrated to Boston as a teenager in the 1970s. His sparring partners were often members of Whitey Bulger's Winter Hill gang, including the Irish-American mobster Patrick Nee, who, despite his thick Southie brogue, is another Ros Muc native.
Mannion's career has previously been explored in the award-winning RTÉ documentary Never Knocked Down. Rocky Ros Muc chronicles Mannion's rise through the boxing ranks, but it equally explores the psychology of emigration and enclave populations, such as Dorchester in Boston, where Irish is widely spoken and where the "squeaky wheel" used to ensure that the police and fire departments recruited Gaelic speakers first, Irish-born second and Irish-Americans after that.
The film, which was released in the US last month, is careful, perhaps a little too careful, not to intrude on its subject's marriage. His battle with alcoholism is alluded to but not explored in depth.
Still, this textured sporting underdog narrative is greatly enlivened by the quality of its contributors, a cast that features the Boston Globe's Kevin Cullen, former mobster John "Red" O'Shea, anti-violence activist and author Michael Patrick MacDonald and mayor of Boston Marty Walsh.
