My kids have been taking soccer with PEFS-- that's how we Yanks call it -- since before they turned 3 and they are about to turn 5. It has been the best activity our children have participated in. And my kids do a lot of activities!
The team combined the obvious skills of a sports instructor with a keen knowledge of how to work with preschoolers to increase the confidence, social skills, language development and focus. Best of all, it is FUN! They are natural leaders who both girls and boys respond to. They take sports and discipline seriously but the team never over emphasize the competition aspect of the game. Instead they teach respect and sportsmanship. PEFS have empathy and respect for a host of backgrounds, and kids feel that.
The coaches are an anchor for kids who are shy, nerdy, super sporty, talented, afraid. They are there for everyone, and they have been wonderful to my children and many others. The classes, which emphasize learning the dynamics of group play and movement, are the perfect base for creating a love of fitness. That is all I ever wanted for my twin sons who are completely opposite, and I believe the class boosted skills for both of them.
What a wonderful entrance into the world of sport they have had thanks to Prague English Football School!
Dinah Richter Spritzer, Prague English Football School parent
"We have been attending Prague English Football School since it began, and have watched our son develop not only his football skills, but also a general love of sport which has progressed as a direct result of PEFS to include running and floorball. Sam and his team are not just proficient coaches, but also skilled in really bringing the enjoyment of the sport to the kids.
The PEFS team use a super mix of games and technical coaching with just the right amount of discipline to keep focus without reducing the fun. Completely recommend to anyone who wants their child to actually enjoy sport as well as developing skill"
David Cairns, Prague English Football School parent
"Prague English Football School is amazing. Our kid has a lot of fun while also learning football basics (considering he is 3 years old). Sam puts together very creative and fun games for the kids. I believe it's also a nice environment to meet other people from different nationalities. I recommend it 100% - no way your kid (and you) will not have fun! ..."
Gaston Levin Garfinkel, Prague English Football School parent
" I can see improvement with my 5-year old in his coordination and ability to handle the ball with finesse. The coaches run a great practice, and also make it enjoyable for the kids, which is essential!'
Brian Mattison, Prague English Football School parent
"The classes are professional, well-structured and most of all FUN! My 4-year old can't wait for Saturday morning practice!"
Karina Bolan, Prague English Football School parent
The team are natural teachers.
They use the perfect combination of knowledge, skill, and patience to make learning football a joy for their students.
My son had so much fun every day while improving his game!
Skye Leybold, Parent
"All of the children and parents had a wonderful experience due to Sam's direction and his teams' outstanding coaching skills. He has a unique talent in working with young people"
Patrick Goolsby, Owner, Beverly Hills Futbol Club
"The boys love the drills and never want the sessions to end!
These are terrific coaches, who quickly gain the respect of the players and coaches.
As knowledgeable as they are as coaches, they are even more skilled in communicating with players. They have the rare gift of being able to communicate with people of all ages and gain their cooperation to achieve a common goal"
Nicole Nichols, Coach, Mother of 3
Type your paragraph here.
"The raves I've received from the families and the smiles I've seen on the children's faces are high praise indeed for a job well done. I would even say above and beyond our greatest hopes and expectations"
David Thomas, Regional Director Los Angeles, UK International Soccer Camps
"I can honestly say this was by far the best coaches we have ever had the pleasure to work with in Region 76. And much of that is owing to their direction and the way in which the team accepted the enormous responsibility of helping launch this program with such dedication and professionalism"
Sarah, U5 Girls Division Director
" I simply can't say enough about the job this team did in turning this experience into such a
positive one for the entire division.
I can honestly say we didn't receive one single complaint about the program all season. Not one. And as a division director dealing with hundreds of parents, that is simply unheard of.
Rather, there was a steady stream of praise, and word of mouth was so good that numerous people were trying to get into the program after it had filled up because they had heard how much fun their friends' children were having in it"
Greg Temkin, U5 Boys Division Director

Recent analysis of VHFA home loan data shows delinquency and foreclosure rates of VHFA mortgages were considerably lower than rates for Vermont and the nation.
As of June 30, 2010, VHFA home loans that were delinquent by 90 or more days were just 0.94% of all the Agency's outstanding loans. Vermont's rate was more than twice as high: 2.05%. The national rate was 4.54%.
The number of VHFA loans in the foreclosure process on June 30, 2010, was 1.37% of all VHFA loans, compared to Vermont's overall foreclosure rate of 2.71% and the national rate of 4.57%.
"VHFA's numbers are impressive, but not accidental," according to Executive Director Sarah Carpenter. "We're focused on responsible lending — solid underwriting combined with homebuyer education. No one wins when a buyer ends up with a house they can't truly afford."

Nominated for 1 Oscar.
Plot: The year is 1755, and the English colonies are being ravaged by the atrocities of war. Opposing European powers have clashed over the fertile Ohio valley, and entire families are devastated by the ensuing violence. Hostile native tribes are raiding the vulnerable frontier farms, and two young sisters are among those taken captive. While hoping for rescue and return to their home, they are comforted with the words of a family hymn: Alone Yet Not Alone. But when the sisters are suddenly and cruelly separated, their tender faith is brought to a stretching point. Forcibly immersed into a primitive foreign culture, the older sister, Barbara, clings to her beliefs. Yet now a deeper fate threatens, and she makes a difficult decision: to risk her life in an attempt to escape. Pursued by a relentless and cunning warrior, Barbara and her three fellow captives must cross over two hundred miles of raw wilderness in their effort to reach friendly territory. Will their courage and trust in God be …

Andre Russell scored a sensational unbeaten century after having taken a final-over hat-trick as the Jamaica Tallawahs beat holders Trinbago Knight Rirders by four wickets in the Caribbean Premier League.
The Windies all-rounder's three scalps on his captaincy debut were not his finest, as a full-toss was miscued by Brendon McCullum – after the New Zealander had scored a breathtaking 56 off 27 balls – and was caught in the deep.
Dwayne Bravo then under-edged the next ball onto his stumps before Dinesh Ramdin's poor connection on the pull saw him pick out deep midwicket to complete Russell's first T20 hat-trick off the second, third and fourth balls of the 20th over.
Despite the impressive end to the innings for the Tallawahs, Chris Lynn's 46 of 27 balls and Colin Munro's (61) second half-century in two matches in the CPL saw Trinbago post an imposing 223-6.
And, when American seamer Ali Khan took three wickets in six balls across two overs, including trapping Ross Taylor lbw for 1 and Johnson Charles was struck on the pads by spinner Fawad Ahmed for 21, Jamaica looked buried at 41-5.
However, Russell strode to the crease and took charge in his first game as leader of the CPL side, and shared a brilliant 159-run sixth-wicket partnership with Kennar Lewis (51 off 35 balls) in just 10.3 overs.
Russell's brutal onslaught included six fours and 13 sixes – the second most maximums in all T20 cricket – as he brought up his hundred off 40 balls, to help his side seal the highest-ever chase in the CPL with three balls spare.

Cliff Doerksen did not belong to the Northwestern community for long, but he left a mark. The Harvey Kapnick Business Institutions Program and School of Continuing Studies professor died unexpectedly at age 47 in late December, leaving behind a wife, daughter and other friends and family members.
The Chicago Tribune reported that he was found dead in his home Dec. 17. An autopsy will determine the cause of death.
"He wasn't widely known, but the people that did know him knew that he was a very special guy," said Bruce Carruthers, a Northwestern sociology professor and Doerksen's brother-in-law. "Part of what made him a good person in the classroom also made him a very fun guy to be around. He was the kind of person that if you were just kind of kidding around, he often could just come up with a one liner or a zinger that cracked up the room."
Doerksen had a Ph.D. in history from Princeton University. He was a well-known journalist whose work appeared in such publications as the Chicago Reader, Time Out Chicago, The New York Times and WBEZ Chicago's This American Life. He also published scholarly essays on history. He began teaching at Northwestern last school year.
Mark Witte, economics professor and BIP director, emphasized the wide variety of knowledge Doerksen brought to Northwestern with him, including history, journalism, cinema, cooking and marketing.
"He can draw on his historical background and bring in aspects of contemporary life and show relevance," Witte said. "He was certainly a popular guy."
Carruthers seconded Witte's assertion about his wide breadth of knowledge, referring to Doerksen as "culturally omnivorous." He added that Doerksen's constant desire to learn more enriched his research and his teaching style.
Hank Sartin of Time Out Chicago posted his memories about Doerksen on Time Out, and several writers remembered him at the Chicago Reader.
"Chicago has lost a wonderful cultural critic, and we in journalism have lost a friend and colleague," Sartin wrote. "Cliff wrote with razor-sharp wit and deep intelligence about film and culture."
Students in Doerksen's BIP class, "Marketing Management," were informed of his death over break. Economics professor Peter Sattler will replace him.
"It was an amazing stroke of luck that he came to us and it was just terrible that he went away," Witte said.

Legitimate aerobatics performed in appropriate locations by qualified pilots flying airplanes engineered for that use are a very safe activity. Less-than-legitimate aerobatics, such as practicing aerobatics over a residential neighborhood, are irresponsible and a violation of federal aviation regulations.

It's September, so it must be time for a new Arco Catalogue.
Much anticipated within the health & safety industry, the annual product catalogue launches this week. The book, at almost 1000 pages, is a significant marketing tool and one that positions Arco as 'the UK's biggest supplier of safety clothing and equipment'.
The brand has always used location photography to showcase its products: Our Agency has been organising these shoots for six years, with in-house creative, Lanie Green sourcing locations and art directing. Year on year, the brief to find increasingly impressive sites presents a huge challenge but, with the co-operation of local (and not so local) organisations, we have once again helped to create fantastic shots.
This year, photographer Andy Gallacher was commissioned to create a gritty style of image for Arco's own brand label, Trojan and several images for the catalogue's section openers. Each shot was designed to showcase a product in it's typical industrial environment. We've been in quarries, factories, and forests at all times of day and night, waiting for just the right conditions. But it's the rail shot that has turned out to be the star, it's won a prestigious photography award which is under wraps at the moment.

It's not many people who have ever seen a Wolf in it's natural environment. Even fewer can claim to go walking with one. Not so for Native American Singer and Songwriter Jezz Harvey. She has her own Half Wolf half, half German Shepherd aptly called Marley. Marley she says is her personal trainer and family protector.
Jezz Harvey does not need to worry about the neighbours, There ain't any where she lives with her 3 dogs and half wolf Marley. Over an hour's drive into the nearest town through snow filled roads means getting up and going to the gym in town is not much of an option.
I go running and training with Marley because he won't let me stop. He can run for hours without stopping and when I want to quit he just drags me along.
Jezz told us Marley is also a fierce protector of the home and land they live on always to first to spot danger and alert the rest of them. She also said he is a great hunter bringing home everything from mink to beaver.
He is my best friend I don't know what I would do without him now. He was given to me by a close friend who struggled to control him and at the time I wanted a project and a big dog for the house. We hit it off almost from day one. I can control him with hand signals as well as with speech and whistles, he is very clever and extremely loyal to me.
Jezz also told us that Marley never lets her sleep in or get lazy.
I have to take him out every day for at least an hour or he starts to go a bit crazy. If I try to sleep in too long he is at the door making sure I wake up and take him for a run. Sometimes I just get on my Quad and let him chase after me for a few miles because I just can't run anymore.
Jezz has just released her debut single 'You haunt me' which has seen her get critical reviews from around the globe. We wrote about the debut single in December. As she continues working on her debut album with Shlepp Entertainment supremo Stevie Eagle E she is determined to make her mark on the music industry.
I did not know what to expect from people when they heard 'You haunt me' I don't know about other artist but I am always nervous when people listen to my music. I put so much of myself into it so I feel it if they like it or don't like it quite a bit. It was great to get such a positive response from so many people. I know I have a long way to go but I am determined to get to the top of this game and tell my story, speak out for Native American people and culture where I can. I know I have to work really hard though.
You can listen and download 'You Haunt me' direct from Jezz Harvey's website here
You can also add 'You haunt me to your flow on Deezer. Also you can add it to your playlist on Spotify as well as download it from most online music stores like Apple music and Itunes.
We will be following the progress of this new Native American artists and wishing her well with her wolf Marley too.

Sebald – On the Natural History of Destruction (1999)
Very likely most or even all of the VDP constituency are acquainted with the works of W. G. Sebald (1944-2001), author of "Austerlitz," "Vertigo," "The Rings of Saturn," and other books celebrated for their unique style. The literary critic James Wood, writing in The New Yorker of last June 5 & 12, referred to Sebald's writing as "mysterious, wayward… drifting melancholy… eccentric sense of playfulness," and applied the following descriptions:
"The tone is elegiac, muffled, yet curiously intense… deeply serious and ambitious… founded a new literary form… a postmodern antiquarian… smothered, recessed diction… chains of narration… characteristic repetitive formulation…"
Sebald was a native German who at age 25 moved to England and taught at the University of East Anglia for the rest of his life. The work under review here is essentially a series of essays and ruminations on the Allied bombing of German cities during WW II. His principal objection is that many or most of the raids had no military objective but were carried out primarily, or even only, to inflict civilian casualties and misery. As a child he lived in Sonthofen, and in the book he says:
As for the air raids on Sonthofen, I remember when I was fourteen or fifteen asking the parson who taught religious education at the Oberstdorf Gymnasium how we could reconcile our ideas of divine providence with the fact that neither the barracks nor the Ordensburg had been destroyed during this air raid, only, and as if in place of them, the parish church and the church of the hospital foundation, but I do not remember what he said in reply.
And later, after setting forth detailed stories of misery and woe, which he says have not appeared in the history and literature of WW II:
That, reduced to its lowest common denominator, is the main theme of the history of postwar Germany.
And he sets forth the purpose of this book:
In any case, it is difficult to disprove the thesis that we have not yet succeeded in bringing the horrors of the air war to public attention through historical or literary accounts.
But he also forthrightly acknowledges that the Germans brought it on themselves:
The majority of Germans today know, or so at least it is to be hoped, that we actually provoked the annihilation of the cities in which we once lived.
And that they practiced carpet bombing first:
This intoxicating vision of destruction coincides with the fact that the real pioneering achievements in bomb warfare–Guernica, Warsaw, Belgrade, Rotterdam–were the work of the Germans.
For those who don't already know Sebald, I don't recommend beginning with this book but with another more typical of his oeuvre, such as "The Rings of Saturn," my personal favorite because it brought me to the Urn Burial of the 17th century doctor-writer Sir Thomas Browne and led me to get and read Browne's complete works on Kindle-but that's a review for another day.

The Kegco 542 Pro series works with any Co2 Tank with a CGA-320 valve and measures PSI, as well as the volume of the Co2 gas in the Cylinder. The regulator body is constructed of forged brass with all brass connections and components, a sintered brass inlet filter, integrated nylon tank connection washer (and spare) and self resetting safety release valve. Both gauges feature an easy to read design. The top gauge lets you know how much Co2 Pressure is in the keg and displays 0-60 psi. The second gauge lets you know how much Co2 gas is left inside the Co2 Tank and features a 0-2000 display. A large adjustment knob with a lock ring allows gas flow to be changed without the need for a screw driver. This regulator includes a tamper proof safety pressure relive valve that releases at 45 psi.

The first genome-scale study looking for the genes that contribute to dyslexia has made a breakthrough that could lead to early diagnosis of this childhood learning difficulty.
Simon Fisher and colleagues at the Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics in Oxford have identified three hotspots where the genes responsible are likely to be located.
Between 5 and 10 per cent of children are affected by dyslexia, defined as a reading disorder that cannot be accounted for through lack of opportunity, intelligence or motivation.
Studies of twins showed that a child's genetic make-up can have a strong influence on developing dyslexia.
The team analysed DNA from 208 British and American families with dyslexic children, collected in collaboration with research groups in Oxford and Colorado. They found that a previously overlooked region on chromosome 18 was linked to the condition and confirmed findings that linked regions on chromosomes two and six.
The group is examining the regions in more detail to identify individual genes that contribute to dyslexia.
The team's results are published in the journal Nature Genetics .

The college tennis player who called Michelle Beadle a "slut" has just emailed a personal apology letter to the ESPN star ... saying he was "extremely remorseful" ... TMZ Sports has learned.
A rep for the University of Texas at San Antonio confirms sophomore tennis player Gio Carrillo emailed the letter to Beadle moments ago.
As for the the contents of the letter, the rep tells us Carrillo wanted to keep it private ... but says it's essentially a full blown apology expressing that he's sorry and wants to learn from his mistake.
The rep also tells us the school did not demand the apology -- it was something Gio wanted to do.
We spoke with Beadle earlier today who tells us she doesn't want Carrillo kicked off the team -- she just hopes he grows up.

If so, start an open, anonymous blog and post something about religion.
Some of you may have seen that I posted my "investments" post on Hooks and Needles, and one girl (whom I don't know) way reeacted to my comment about Judaism (above the picture of the Rebecca doll). This is what she said:
"'Judaism is an incomplete religion without Jesus Christ, definitely, and has really strayed from God'
"I find this very offensive. You are no one to judge a religion. You may have 'apologized' for your words by saying that "the Jews are still God's chosen people" and commend AG for supporting them but I do not think that makes up for what you wrote."
Whew! At first I was shocked! Like, okay! But then I began to get hopping excited-- Here is an opportunity to share Christ!!!
So I wrote a long answer but I haven't posted it yet. I am going to bring it to the Rings this evening for Pastor Greenfield to read, since he'll be there, and Lord willing post it tomorrow. So, you all have to assignments.
- Tell me what you think of my answer (posted below) and let me know if you see anything incorrect or something I can add.
- Pray that the Spirit will move and that God will work in this girl's heart!
Hi Jessica,
Thank you for your comment! I appreciate your thoughts, and am glad you felt free to share.
I am not sure what religion you follow, and if you do follow Judaism, please accept my apology if I have caused offence! My words were in no way meant to bash Judasim.
I love the Jews and believe they are God's chosen people. Judaism in the Old Testament (the Torah) pointed forward to Christ, but throughout the Torah, they, as a nation, turned to the world and began to mix with the other nations, disregarding God's ways. They had religion, but not relationship with God or a pure heart before God (collectively).
As well as making the Jews His chosen people, God also ordained the sacrifices and laws in the Old Testament. These sacrifices and laws pointed forward to Jesus Christ, God's Son (Hebrews 8:5), who came in the form of human flesh to redeem His people-- both Jews and Gentiles-- from their sins (Matthew 1:21). According to the Bible, which is the inspired words of the God who created and sustains us, Jesus is the only way to heaven. Any religion that does not preach that our only hope is in Jesus Christ is incomplete. "And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved." (Acts 4:12)
The goal of religion is, basically, to reach perfection or heaven (though religions vary on their beliefs regarding that). The only way we can get to heaven, though, is to have a clean conscience and a pure heart before God. Tragically, each of us has sinned and therefore are at enmity with God, who, because He is so pure and holy, cannot look upon sin. According to the Bible, in other religions "gifts and sacrifices are offered that cannot perfect the conscience of the worshipper, but deal only with food and drink and various washings, regulations for the body imposed until the time of reformation. But when Christ appeared as High Priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tabernacle (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation), He entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of His own blood, thus securing eternal redemption. For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the sprinkling of defiled persons with the ashes of a heifer, sanctify for the purification of the flesh, how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works, to serve the living God." (Hebrews 9:9-14) In short, Jesus, who is perfect and sinless because He is God, is the only one who could qualify to take the punishment of our sins upon Himself once and for all (instead of repeatedly like the sacrifices of the Old Testament) and to make us right with God.
It is not I who say that Jesus Christ is the only way; neither am I judging any religion. Jesus Himself, who made you and formed you for His glory and loves you, said it. "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'" (John 14:6)
Again, Jessica, I am glad you commented! It was a joy to share with you. God is so great and good and I am glad I could share with you His message to all—that our hope is in Him! May the Lord richly bless you!
In Christ,

Sayyed Hashem Safieddine, head of Hizbullah's Executive Council stressed that the region will not witness a new Middle East but one founded by the Resistance of Hizbullah, he said: "Our region will see a new Resistance Middle East which is built and founded by the martyrs."
"The new Resistance Middle East will not have room for the American policy and the followers of America in the region," he added.
On the war in Syria and Hizbullah's participation in the conflict, Safieddine said: "We are still at the heart of the battle in Syria. We have not and will not back down. The Resistance is stronger at this stage at the level of numbers, weapons, capabilities and the political and non-political representation, not only in Lebanon but in the whole region."
On the election of President Michel Aoun, the Hizbullah official expressed content but at the same time he stressed the need for political parties to unite efforts and speed up the formation of a cabinet that includes all the political components without excluding any in order to address the existing political, economic and social problems.

My Schools jazz band uses this set. The finish is pretty nice. It is like a cherry fade to black. The sound is pretty great.
One is able to hear every note played with clarity. But if you are used to low pitch toms, this may not be the set for you. I use standard sized drums at home and when i first played this set, i was not comfortable with how high pitched the toms were.
They do cut through the loud horns and two bass players we have. The bass is very booming which is great for setting up kicks in jazz. The snare has a good pop to it. It is a great set over all.

United Kingdom
The UK is one of the largest European donors of Official Development Assistance (ODA) and an active proponent of family planning and reproductive health (FP/RH) within ODA. Despite a tight economic climate, the budget of the Department for International Development (DFID) has remained ring-fenced. The UK continues to meet the target of 0.7% GNI to ODA, after the International Development (Official Development Assistance Target) Act enshrined this ongoing commitment in law in 2015.
Policies & funding
The UK has committed to taking a strong stand for women and girls and to promoting equity in both its programmes and in global processes such as the 2030 United Nations Agenda for Sustainable Development. The UK continues to work towards the UK commitment of 24 million additional family planning users between 2012 and 2020. The UK continues to place a strong emphasis on health, sexual and reproductive health and rights, and on women and girls.
By 2016/17, DFID-funded reproductive, maternal and new-born health programmes have enabled 8.5 million additional women (from July 2012 to March 2017) to use modern methods of family planning (contributing towards DFID's commitment of 24 million between 2012 and 2020).
In 2016 and 2017, DFID continued to fund SRH/FP in several countries. The large global programme Prevention of Maternal Deaths from Unwanted Pregnancy (PMDUP 2011-17) has been continued as the HEALTH: PREVENTION OF MATERNAL DEATHS (PMD) programme, in 17 countries across West, East, Central and Southern Africa and in South Asia.
Overall, the UK has decreased funding for SRH/FP in 2016 to €211 million, representing a 22% decrease compared to 2015. Whilst funding for SRH/FP organisations and initiatives increased, UNFPA core funding, UNFPA Supplies Programmes, earmarked multilateral funding and funding for SRH/FP research witnessed a decrease. In July 2017, the UK co-hosted the global FP Summit, where it increased its existing commitment by 25% to an average of €254 million a year, and extended its commitment by a further two years, up to 2022.
Internationally vocal
To reinvigorate support on FP2020 commitments made at the first FP summit in July 2012, DFID, UNFPA and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation brought together major stakeholders at an FP Summit in July 2017, in London. The UK government committed an additional £45 million per year (a 25% increase) for family planning, to enable an additional 24 million girls and women in the world's poorest countries to use voluntary modern family planning methods by 2020. This brings DFID's total FP funding to an average of £225 million a year until 2022, and includes a £30 million commitment to the Global Financing Facility, funding to the global Visibility and Analytics Network to improve commodity supply chains, £36 million to SRHR AidConnect (a civil society funding stream) and supporting a price reduction deal for Sayana Press.
DFID is on track to meet their commitment, and is supporting the target through bilateral and multilateral programmes (as highlighted above) and through maintaining the profile on FP within key global agendas such as the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Anthony Davis JOINING the Golden State Warriors!!?
TheFumblePublished: January 8, 2018
Published: January 8, 2018
The Golden State Warriors already have one of the most talented rosters in the NBA, and maybe even all-time. With Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Kevin Durant and Draymond Green, you probably think they don't need any other star power. But what if they did? Rumors are swirling that the Dubs are targeting the Pelicans big man Anthony Davis if he opts out of his contract after the 2019-2020 season. If the Warriors successfully lure "the Brow" to their city, the landscape of the entire NBA will change.

Title: Sleeping 'til Sunrise (Mangrove Stories, #5)
Author: Mary Calmes
Publisher: Dreamspinner Press
Cover Artist: Reese Dante
Rating: 4 of 5 Stars
Publication Date: 12/16/2015
Length: Novella (~ 15K-50K)
Genre: Contemporary, M/M Romance
Mangrove Stories
Everyone in Mangrove, Florida, knows Fire Chief Essien Dodd is a saint. He took care of his ex-wife until she died, is raising his teenage daughter alone, and is the kind of man who pulls kittens from trees. All in all, the man's a catch. But Roark Hammond has sworn off getting involved with a man who's been hurt before because he can't guarantee he won't hurt his prospective love again. If only he could get Essien out of his mind long enough to focus on anyone, or anything, else.
Strong emotions are in play. Essien is lonely but determined to focus on Ivy; Ivy wants her father to have a new life so much that, to his horror, she's trying to find him a man; and Roark is so scared of the present and past, he won't allow himself to commit. To have any chance of sleeping 'til sunrise and greeting each new day together, Essien and Roark will have to rethink how they're living their lives and focus on what's most important.
My View:
It has been a while since I had the pleasure of reviewing a Mary Calmes book. Normally they are snapped up by my team before I even know of their existence.
You may or may not know of my love for Mary Calmes brand of story telling. She can be a love or hate it type author as all her stories have a definite feel to them. First of all, the are written in the first-person (which I adore). Secondly, one of the pair is usually the definite alpha and one is definitely not the alpha. Sometimes she will switch which is the point-of-view character.
Sleeping 'til Sunrise is the fifth (and I believe final) book in her Mangrove Stories series. This series is a multiple main character series that centers around a small Florida resort town. This installment wraps up the loose ends from the previous stories. Not that any of the stories were left open, but two men were still without partners — Roark and Essien.
I enjoyed seeing the town from a newcomers point of view. Essien has only been a resident of Mangrove for a relatively short time. I don't know that I felt his and Roark's bond as strongly as some of the other couples we have encountered along the way, but I still liked them together.
Theirs is not a story that is likely to have a happy ending, in fact it may end prematurely. However, I am left with the feeling that they will live every moment they are given to the fullest. In the end, I like this family together. And they are a family. Roark is as infatuated with Essien's teenage daughter (in a paternal manner) as he is Essien.
While I am sad to see an end to the Mangrove stories, I eagerly await Calmes next offering.

"As expected, the two companies will continue to work together, but on a smaller scale," said W.R. Hambrecht analyst Josh Fisher, who maintained a neutral rating on the stock. "The revised relationship is a small positive for WebMD - expenses and outstanding shares reduced."
But he noted that there's still "significant uncertainty" on the 2001 prospects for WebMD.
WebMD holds on to the rights to $205 million in domestic media services over 10 years and will continue to provide its content for use across News Corp's media properties for $48 million over four years.
News Corp. will no longer have to provide $300 million of international media services, the first $100 million of capital, and any future capital requirements to the international joint venture.
WebMD will be relieved of all future capital commitments to The Health Network and will not be required to issue an additional 8.3 million shares of its common stock in exchange for News Corp.'s 50 percent interest in The Health Network.
News will transfer to WebMD the 155,951 shares of WebMD's Series A preferred stock issued in January 2000. WebMD will issue to News a warrant to acquire 3 million shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $15 per share.
Shares of WebMD fell 31 cents to $7.63 on Tuesday. News Corp. shares were unchanged at $32.25.
The move by WebMD comes days after it terminated a strategic alliance with DuPont DD, -2.37%
It's still re-negotiating pacts with Microsoft MSFT, -2.96% and America Online AOL according to Salmon Smith Barney Analyst Glen Santangelo.

Well, my brother joined the Ky Army National Guard right at a year ago. He completed some schooling and got his GED and thankfully is finally getting to leave for boot camp. After alot of trouble and time, he's finally been given a date. He leaves soon, and will go thru boot camp and AIT, then will probably be doing some training with this group just in time to be deployed. He isn't sure yet, if he's going to get deployed, we'll know more later. He is doing boot camp in Ft. Leonardwood, MO. I plan on attending boot camp graduation tho Brent won't be able to make it. I plan on being there. Hopefully this will help him mature and do something with his life, rather than waste it away in "No Where, Kentucky". I'm just so happy he's finally going to get to do what he signed up for a year ago!
Keep him in your thoughts or prayers, which ever you believe. I just hope he does great and if he is deployed, that is makes it home safely!
On another note, we should know in a week or so, if Brent got Chief or not. I can't wait to find out, I hope this is his year! So much could open up for us this year, if he picks it up! Keep your fingers crossed... if he doesn't, it's not the end of the world, we'll be okay, but I'm hoping he gets it.

Now go back to your GWOC thread and let us have a civil conversation about our lowly league.
In defense of TippIsGreat (I just said that!), his name should tell you that he is going to be posting about well, how great Tipp is or his name would be TippIsAVG or TippIsTrash.
Not sure of the point of the reply you gave him. Maybe Im just getting tooooooo old
Back to the topic at hand, Franklin will be good next year, so will VV. I believe Bellbrook is going to be a tough out for anyone. On the small school side though, not much returning is there? Milton will be good, Carlisle without Reed and low numbers. Maybe Madison?

Freezer Soups
This month I am extremely thankful for FREEZER MEALS! Freezer soup, to be exact . I am not much of a cook when I am pregnant and like anything fast and easy. Making a big pot of soup and freezing the leftovers in individual servings has been my LIFE SAVER! And it will continue to be once the baby comes!! Some soups that freeze well are chicken rice, vegetable beef, and chili. I like broccoli cheese, potato, and homemade chicken noodle frozen too- but they tend to be a little more "grainy" when they are reheated. To reheat I run them under water, put in a bowl, cover with a plate and heat for about 5 min, then stir and heat for another 3 min, stir and heat until done (about another 2-3 min).

In a survey of physician and trainee attitudes regarding disclosure of errors to patients, more than 90% of faculty physicians and residents said they would disclose errors resulting in either minor or major harm to patients, reported Lauris Kaldjian, M.D., Ph.D., and colleagues from the University of Iowa and other centers.
But reactions in real life seem to be different. Only 41% of respondents confessed to disclosing an actual, albeit minor, medical error, and only 5% said that they had told a patient about a major error resulting in disability or death, the authors wrote in the online version of the Journal of General Internal Medicine.
"Most doctors recognize that they're fallible, but they still strive for perfection and, for the most part, hold each other accountable to a high standard of practice that approximates perfection," said Dr. Kaldjian, director of the Program in Biomedical Ethics and Medical Humanities at the Carver College of Medicine.
"The idea persists that the physician rides into the clinic on the white horse," Dr. Kaldjian said. "To come in as the healer and then realize that you have harmed is a difficult thing to accept, let alone admit."
He and his colleagues at Iowa, Yale, and Penn State conducted a survey of faculty physicians, residents, and medical students at their respective centers.
They asked questions about minor errors, such as "Have you ever made a mistake that prolonged treatment or caused discomfort and told the patient (or the patient's family) that a mistake was made?" and major errors, such as "Have you ever made a mistake that caused disability or death and told the patient (or the patient's family) that a mistake was made?"
The survey participants were also presented with a hypothetical case in which a physician fails to note a patient's allergy to cephalosporins and gives him one of the drugs to treat pneumonia. They were then asked how they would respond to each of three possible outcomes: no harm to the patient, minor harm (diffuse itching and a rash) or major harm (respiratory distress, anaphylactic shock, and myocardial infarction).
Study outcome measures were actual and hypothetical error disclosure, attitudes toward disclosure, and demographic factors.
The authors received responses from 538 physicians, residents, and students for a response rate of 77%.
When it came to the hypothetical situations, they found that faculty respondents were more likely than either residents or students to disclose an error resulting in no harm, with 80% of faculty, 63% of residents, and 50% of students willing to 'fess up (P<0.001).
Nearly all respondents agreed that they would disclose errors causing minor harm (99% of faculty, 95% of residents, and 93%, of students, P=0.06), and the vast majority also said they would report the most egregious errors (97% of physicians, 90% of residents, and 94%, of students, P=0.03).
The more senior physicians were less likely than either residents or students to worry about malpractice litigation (76% vs 83% vs 91%, P<0.001), professional discipline (46% vs 66% vs 86%, P<0.001), loss of reputation (54% vs 67% vs 76%, P<0.001), or blame from colleagues (47% vs 62% vs 75%, P<0.001), the authors found.
Faculty physicians were also less to agree that the decision to disclose "depends on whether I think the information will help or harm the patient" (21% vs 44% vs 52%, P<0.001) or to believe that disclosure would help alleviate their guilt feelings (50% vs 69% vs 74%, P<0.001), the researchers wrote. Faculty and residents were more likely than students to agree that error disclosure "strengthens my patient's trust in me as a physician" (64% vs 65% vs 46%, P<0.001).
Slightly less than half of all respondents (47%) acknowledged having made at least one medical error, including 62% of faculty and 36% of residents. Of this group, 46% acknowledged making a minor error, and 9% confessed to a major error.
But when it came to real-world disclosure of errors to patients, only 41% of faculty and residents said they'd told a patient about an actual minor error and only 5% had disclosed an actual major error.
On the other end of the spectrum, 19% said they had not disclosed an actual minor error and 4% said they had failed to tell a patient about an actual major error.
"There appears to be a gap between physicians' attitudes and practices regarding error disclosure, " the authors wrote.
"Willingness to disclose errors was associated with higher training level and a variety of patient-centered attitudes, and it was not lessened by previous exposure to malpractice litigation."
Dr. Kaldjian said that while the survey data suggested that about half of the respondents were infallible, "it seems fair to assume that all of us have made at least a minor error, if not a major error, sometime in our careers."
The authors acknowledged that the self-report nature of the survey is subject to "social desirability" bias -- that is, the tendency of respondents to put themselves or the profession in a more favorable light, despite the anonymous design of the survey.
"Under the right circumstances, physicians should be able to act with courage and compassion to communicate clearly with patients and families about errors," they wrote. "Creating such circumstances requires concerted efforts to build a culture of learning and healing that supports the physician's self-identity as a healer, at a time when it may be threatened, and promotes the dignity and well being of the patient after he or she has been harmed."
The authors also acknowledged that the study was cross-sectional and could therefore not account for changes over time or differences between the participating centers. They also pointed out that the survey was limited to faculty, residents and students in teaching hospitals and represented only internal medicine, family medicine, and pediatrics, so the results may not be generalizable to physicians in other specialties or practice types.
|The study was funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's Generalist Physician Faculty Scholars Program. The authors had no conflict-of-interest disclosures.

The blinds industry have produced thousands fabrics/ wooden blinds to choose from. They are ranges to suit all budgets and tastes. Some have special properties such as being moisture resistant, blackout, solar reflective, suitable for computer environment, flame retardant or wipe clean. Some fabrics are available in the same fabric for vertical, roller and pleated blinds.
Often the more properties are added in order to produce the fabric the greater the cost. Some cost come about as a result of the type of fabric the blind is made from and the manufacturing process. If a designer fabric is selected, then this may impact on the price.
As a general rule most blinds manufactures calculate the cost of a blind using a matrix or grid system. They may place the fabrics in bands. For example, there may be six bands or groups in the vertical collection. Band /group 1 being the least expensive with band 6/group 6 being the most expensive.
The next factor would the width and drop of the blind especially if it is made to measure blind. This means that the there can be a great variation depending on the fabric selected along with the measurements.
If money is really tight, this maybe an option you may need to opt for a set of ready made, then these blinds tend to cheaper. However, you would need to think about the quality of the blinds and try to get the best of both worlds.
Other additional costs may be added such as fitting, accessories, delivery and VAT depending on the charging policy of the blind company.
If you can afford to buy bespoke blinds then take time to decide of what factors are important to you and try to meet that check list. These blinds cost enough and so you need to ensure you get the right blind at the right price.

Most passengers convalescing from an illness or injury require a wheelchair to travel though airports. An advantage of using one is that they always have someone to push them. They know shortcuts and have priority through security and Passport Control.
Wheelchair passengers are given seats at the front of the aircraft and settled in before the other passengers jostle their way aboard.
They are also guided off the aircraft at the destination airport.
Wheelchairs generally make the whole process of transit through an airport less stressful not only for the medical passenger but also the accompanying party.
It is sensible that even those who are fully mobile following an illness should use a wheelchair. Air travel is arduous even for the fit and healthy. The precipitation of any medical difficulties en route could easily prevent boarding.
Wheelchairs can be arranged at the airport of departure and arrival, but it must be done in advance of travel.
By obtaining Medical Clearance we can ensure that happens.

So, I feel like I'm having a bit more success with smooth blends, and I'm at least seeing some results. I'm using a two-brush blending technique - essentially I hold a damp clean brush in my mouth, use the colour brush to apply some paint, then quickly feather it with the clean brush. Rinse, repeat.
While experimenting with this technique (which I'm preferring over wet-blending at the moment at it seems more suited to the tiny areas I'm working on), I'm refining as a I go.
I've found that increasing my thinner amount to the point that the paint is basically like skim milk is helping immensely with the blend, almost to the point of not even needing to feather with the second brush. I load up the brush with paint, draw the stroke from where I want the least amount of colour to where I want the most, and lift off. Where I start the stroke gets so little colour it's invisible, and where I end the stroke gets a pure new colour, with a smooth transition in between.
It's not perfect, and there's areas I want to go back over with the base coat, but I'm finding it terribly effective - you can mainly see it on the chest plate.
Anyway, I've applied the last two highlight layers for now, let me know what you think.
3) 2nd Highlight: 1SG:1MB:1EG:1EB:2T
4) 3rd Highlight: 2EG:2EB:3T
Next up is to clean up the transitions by reapplying the base colour, then the three layers of shading and defining the lines between the armour segments. Then another highlight, wash/glazes if necessary, and finally edge highlighting and hot-spots. Phew!
All paint is VGA. Colour codes are:
Dark Green = DG
Magic Blue = MB
T = Vallejo Airbrush Thinner
Sick Green = SG
Escorpena Green = EG
Electric Blue = EB

Juniors are welcome to come to the club on Saturday Afternoons where they
will received a very warm welcome. We cater for the absolute beginner to the advanced amateur. Under 12's can "play trains" with a collection of proprietory equipment and may be invited to operate one of the adult layouts under supervision.
Over 12's have the opportunity to join one of the layout groups, operate their own rolling stock and learn how to model a railway. You can learn how to construct a baseboard, lay track including soldering and wiring instruction. We can also show you how to make scenic items like trees, buildings and line-side equipment.
You can obtain operating layout certificates .
KMRC Juniors meet Saturday afternoons from 1.00pm at the clubrooms
Juniors must be accompanied by a parent/guardian, and as a result, the Club now inadvertently has a "parents' social group" who chat, read, drink tea and use their laptops on Saturday afternoons. Handmade quilts have made their appearance and one or two parents have even started modelling themselves...
The base boards for the now ready for track laying - the next skills day will be instruction on how to build and lay track.
