Marko Zlactic – External Director
Born and raised in Toronto Canada, Marko Zlatic came to the UBC due to its lovely scenery and amazing forestry program. Marko moved from Toronto at the age of 13 to Southern California where he spent 5 years of his life surfing, snowboarding, striding toward academic excellence and being heavily involved with his high school football team. Marko is currently pursuing the Natural Resource and Conservation Science in attempts to help promote more global sustainability with policy implementation, proper conservation tactics and better resource management. Marko was really alarmed at the statistic of 1/5 children living in the lower mainland is living in poverty. As a result, he saw the UBC United Way Committee as a great outlet to help engage the student body of (about) 50,000 undergraduates to help donate and raise awareness about the growing matter of poverty within Vancouver and the Lower Mainland. Marko is really excited for this year along with all of the amazing and positive experiences that UBC and the whole campus experience brings to the table.

This week I bought a small detail sander at Canadian Tire and put it to good use. I needed to scuff up the paint and get some smoothness in the areas where I attacked the Reliant with the angle grinder and "Orange Beast" power sander.
I went over the trunk lid and the rear quarter to get them feeling a lot more smooth and ready for Bondo or primer. I opted to take the trunk lid completely off the car to paint it, just because I hate masking if I don't need to. Some masking was needed to cover the trunk-lock Pentastar, although it might eventually get painted or vinyl wrapped depending on the final look I choose.
I only did the first coat, mostly to protect from rust appearing on the bare metal, and because the wind made it difficult to spray (I am outside, after all). The results are obviously spotty because it's only one coat, but it's a good start. I did get a run in one spot as well. There are some spots where the initial sanding could have been better, so I'll sand those issues out and then do the second coat to fix it up. I reinstalled the trunk for now because I was done for the day and it was going to rain overnight… didn't want the trunk full of water!
The dent on the rear passenger side is about as "out" as I can get it without drilling, and I don't really want to do that. I banged out all the high spots and smoothed out what I can in preparation for some Bondo work, then primer.

I'm looking for any one or any information about the Davis family (of) or Davistown New Jersey. I'm trying to recreate the growth of the family and this area from a small family enclave through its recognition as a town in Gloucester,then Camden county. I'd apreciate any help I can get. I've gotten back to Solomon Davis and Lindley Davis in about 1780 or so. New Jersey didn't participate in a census until 1830. So I don't know where to go next. HELP!!!!!

So awhile back I made a thread about a new scoring system I was developing, and I included a modification based on feedback I received. I have modified it again and was reminded of it seeing the scoring system thread revived. Once again I am looking for feedback. In particular, as with the previous thread, I'm most interested in hearing feedback from players who are used to draw-based scoring, which is why I'm posting it here (though I welcome all feedback).
My system is an attempt to make a hybrid of all three criteria that are usually used for tournament scoring--draw size, center count, and center lead. It's an attempt to provide multiple ways to obtain a good score. So, in my optimistic view of the system, if you like playing for a small draw, you can get a good score that way. If you like to push for a solo and you get stopped by a large coalition of powers on your way to 18, you can get a good score that way too. It's my attempt to create a system that rewards multiple styles as long as they are executed well.
Here is how it works:
-Each game is worth a total of 180 points.
-A solo is always worth 180 points, and a loss is always worth 0.
-If exactly 2 players share a draw, they each earn 90 points.
-If a draw is called when no one has more than 6 centers, the points are equally split among draw participants.
-In all other draw results, we then find the "top score" for the board, which is a function of the highest center count and the number of players who qualify for the top score. To qualify for the top score, you must have either the highest center count or exactly 1 fewer center.
-If the board's top score times the number of draw participants is less than 180, the top score is ignored and the points are equally split among draw participants. [Note: this only happens in extreme edge cases, as you can see below.]
-In all other cases, all players who qualify for the top score receive the top score, and all remaining points are then equally split among all remaining draw participants.
The only thing that remains is to find the top score. It works like this:
If 1 player qualifies:
7 centers: 54
8 centers: 57
9 centers: 57
10 centers: 60
11 centers: 60
12 centers: 60
13 centers: 66
14 centers: 72
15 centers: 78
16 centers: 84
17 centers: 90
If 2 players qualify:
7 centers: 48
8 centers: 49.5
9 centers: 49.5
10 centers: 54
11 centers: 60
12 centers: 60
13 centers: 61.5
14 centers: 63
15 centers: 64.5
16 centers: 66
17 centers: 67.5
If 3 players qualify:
7 centers: 45
8 centers: 45
9 centers: 45
10 centers: 54
11 centers: 54
12 centers: 60 [Note: this can only happen in a 12/11/11 3way, so this is an equal split]
If 4 players qualify:
7--9 centers: 39.375
If 5 players qualify:
7 centers: 31.5
(I should note that everything past 2 players, I would consider an extreme edge case...)
And that's it. No other provisions.
-A 12/11/11 3way draw is 60 points each. So is a 12/12/10.
-A 14/10/10 3way draw breaks down as 72/54/54.
-A 15/14/5 3way draw breaks down as 64.5/64.5/51.
-A 9/9/8/8 4way draw is worth 45 points each (since 39.375 * 4 is smaller than 180). So is a 9/9/9/7 4way draw.
-A 15/8/7/4 4way draw breaks down as 78/34/34/34.
-An 11/10/7/6 4way draw breaks down as 60/60/30/30.
-A 10/8/6/6/6 5way draw breaks down as 60/30/30/30/30.
-A 10/10/9/5 4way draw breaks down as 54/54/54/18.
Like I said, any feedback welcome!

Tax Free Growth
Assurance vie is a fundamental of French Financial planning both for its huge advantages in saving on income tax on your investment growth but also due to the fact it can greatly reduce inheritance tax liabilities (IHT) for your heirs when you have gone.
This is the primary solution for the majority of the French population and was specifically designed to meet and help with French inheritance and tax problems. The great news is it is also available to ex pats living in France offering the same advantages in Euros, Dollars and in Sterling if preferred. Why leave your money dormant and taxable in the bank when you could have:
- Tax Free Growth no matter the amount.
- Tax efficient income if required with reducing tax rates over time.
- More tax efficient than pension drawdown.
- Year 8 onwards €4,600 per annum can be withdrawn free of tax (€9,200 for a married couple).
- Access to capital at any time.
- Huge range of investment choice available.
- €152,500 per beneficiary can be left free of inheritance tax with a tax rate of only 20% after that.
You can name who you want and as many beneficiaries as you like, Assurance vie falls outside of your estate.

Review: All of You by Christina Lee
All of You by Christina Lee
Contemporary / New Adult
InterMix (September 17, 2013)
Heroine: Avery Michaels – Nursing Student, Man-eater
Hero: Bennett Reynolds – Tattoo Artist, Virgin
Nursing student Avery Michaels wants nothing to do with dating—she's perfectly happy single. Privy to too many of her mother's bad decisions and even worse taste in boyfriends, all Avery can handle is a string of uncomplicated hookups whenever the mood strikes.
When she meets smoking hot tattoo artist Bennett, she wants him—for just one night. But he won't accept a no-strings-attached arrangement. He lives by a straight-laced code of values based on his own troubled upbringing.
Bennett sees something special in Avery and he wants more from her. Way more. As Avery wrestles with her emotions for Bennett, danger and tragedy force them to open up to each other. And Avery must face the terrifying realization that she wants more from him, too.
So she needs to make a choice—let Bennett go or finally let him in.
Promiscuous Heroine meets Virgin Hero – of course I would be drawn to this story like bees to honey. I love virgin heroes. Two of my all-time favorite books have virgin heroes. I really liked the idea that the roles were reversed in this story. And I liked the fact that Avery didn't apologize for her promiscuous ways.
At a party one night, Avery zeroes in on Bennett Reynolds aka 'Hot Boy' from across the room. Like a lioness after her prey. She's taking him home. But when Bennett doesn't show any interest towards Avery, she feels rejected. That stung. Come to find out Bennett is her new neighbor. When Bennett intercepts someone trying to break into Avery's apartment, they become friends.
Avery is a nursing student working on getting her RN degree at the local university. She doesn't do commitments. She only does one-night-stands with no-strings attached. The men she sleeps with, whom she calls her fuck buddies, are a quick fix to sexual frustration. No emotional ties. Her issues with men stem from her childhood, when she was almost raped by her stepfather. She feels ruined. Her issues go even deeper because of her mother, who has always had a string of men come and go out of her life; always putting them before her children.
Bennett is a tattoo artist and comes from a similar background as Avery. They're able to connect since they both come from broken homes. But the one thing they don't have in common is the number of sexual partners. Bennett is a virgin and his philosophy on sex is the opposite of Avery's. He wants to save himself for when he falls in love. He's a commitment kind of guy. The first time Bennett sees Avery, he's actually very attracted her. He sees something special in her that he's drawn to. Bennett slowly starts to break down her defenses and shows her that being intimate with someone can be more than just a quick fix. It can beautiful… If only Avery could let go of her emotional baggage and let herself feel.
I adored Bennett. He's super sexy, protective, patient, charming, and genuine. I admired him for standing by his beliefs. I could fall for a guy like Bennett. Avery is a likeable heroine. She's strong but has a lot of emotional baggage, which is what this story is centered around. Bennett was the perfect guy to help her along her journey of finding herself again. Though, I wouldn't have minded if the author went deeper into Bennett's character. I like a hero with flaws. Instead, he was depicted as this nearly perfect guy.
Avery and Bennett have really good chemistry together that was prevalent right from the beginning. There is tons of lust that I definitely felt. The author does an excellent job with the sexual tension and the slow building romance, but I wanted more passion between them… more heart to the romance.
It was hard to rate this book, since I really liked the characters, but the story just wasn't that interesting. With an intriguing blurb like that, I was hoping for more substance – I wanted to be wooed and wowed and emotionally impacted. Instead, I was left wanting more.
What didn't work for me, might work for another person. This is a quick and light read that I do think a lot of readers will find enjoyable. The romance is very sweet and sexy and there is a happy ending that will make you say AWE. I KNOW the ladies are going to love Bennett. He is definitely swoon-worthy.

The Super Strong Coffee (#jammed daily devo, day 82)
March #jammed: Grace Revealed.
Day 82: Stronger than we can handle.
"My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." 2 Corinthians 12:9 HCSB
Coffee and me have this thing. And it's growing …stronger. The process is getting lengthier. The time invested is stretching. Flavor is expounding on my taste buds, and now it's an experience. AKA, I'm a coffee snob, as my husband likes to put it.
Guilty. So snobbery when it comes to coffee. From throwing a cup in an pushing a lever to grinding my own beans every morning, the relationship with my morning cup of joe has become a bit of a fancy-pants habit.
The privilege I feel when I crack God's Word open is akin to the same love …and abundantly more. As the days run on into more life lived, I no longer need a quick bit of wisdom to hold my sanity together as two crying babies pull on both pant legs. My Father and I are growing old together like a fine wine … or a snobbery cup of coffee. Well invested, minutes stretched.
"I invite you to drink deeply from the exceeding riches of My grace- My favor, mercy, and lovingkindness. It is a free gift that opens the way for you into eternity. It also provides what you need to live now, in this fractured world." Sarah Young, Jesus Today
The second half of today's verse states: "Therefore, I will most gladly boast all the more about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may reside in me." 2 Corinthians 12:9b
Jesus knew us before He accepted the cross. Every flaw and failure, but every smile and spark, too. Joy is in the journey with Jesus when we realize our weakness leads to growth. In the healing of our frailties, wisdom is produced. The ways of God are not our ways. He doesn't always heal as we ask, He heals out of provision and love of a good, good Father. When we embrace our pain we acknowledge His sovereignty.
Father, Praise Your sovereign hand upon our lives. Thank You for loving us beyond what we are capable of understanding. Thank You for the simple joys in life like a good, snobbery cup of coffee. Forgive us for taking the little things, and giant pains, in this life for granted. Bless us and heal us. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
Get the conversation started by commenting below, and let's encourage one another as we face life in 2017 armed with grace!
Happy Coffee-drinking,

I love that cracking open God's word is something you yearn for. May it never stop. Maree
I have a friend who calls coffee the "nectar of Jehovah." Time invested in making a cup or filling our hearts, minds, and souls with His life-giving words is, agreed, well spent. Great encouragement, Megs! ((Hugs))
Love the analogy as it is true in my own life too. I started drinking coffee while working in a coffee shop 30 years ago and now it is a huge part of my morning. My devotions to our Lord are in the evening but He is a huge part of my day and I talk to Him throughout the day, thanking, sending up prayers and singing from the current Christian CD in my player. Great post!
Megs, thank you for this beautiful line: "Jesus knew us before He accepted the cross." Hadn't considered that in that way before. We are so privileged to open up our Bibles day upon day — so blessed. How I pray an extra prayer of favor and blessing over those in areas where they aren't so privileged. Thank you for sharing these sweet words today, Megs. ((hug))
Meg, Hi! Loved your analogy in this post, our relationship with the Lord should become richer and more involved over time as we consume His Word and lavishes His love on us! Great to see you today over at #Chasing Community. Have a great day! ❤
… and that should have savoring time in His Word… 🙂
Meg, "joy is in the journey with Jesus…" yes! I love your joy in this post. So good. And I love the visual of savoring tie in His Word… I love it so much more when I deliberately slow down and really drink the Word in!
